GIF of the Night: there was no gif of the night for the show.😢
Dane Cook's best pick up line he uses after his friends will try to hard to pick up girls he would say "I'm really sorry about that."
His worst pick up line was "what disease don't you have, maybe I have it and we can mix it up together." 😂
Cindy from Florida called to ask Candy when she thinks Hillary is going to announced that she's running for office?
Candy is still one of those people who thinks Hillary is not going to run, Siri is if she's going to be wrong to be consistently wrong. She thinks, ues she wants to win, yes she wants to run but Candy doesn't think she will because Hillary doesn't want to lose.
A caller from Texas asked Dane if there's any topic or person that's off limits during his performance and has he ever had to cut a bit short because it went too long?
Dane doesn't think anything is off-limits when it comes to his comedy act. Dane actually had a bit one time that somebody recorded and it wound up as a poll on CNN, asking if this seemed funny or not? He actually voted in the pool to say that he did not think it was funny.
The most embarrassing thing that happened to Dane on stage was when he fainted.
Candy says everything is breaking news all day long because you look when it's breaking news.
Louis from South Dakota asked Candy what's the dumbest thing she ever heard a politician say?
John Kerry when he was running for president said something like I was against it or I was for it, but he just had no idea what he was saying. It was stupid politically, not factually.
Game Time!
Andy plays State of the WHOunion with Dane & Candy.
Plug Alert: For playing along Candy wins a Mazel blanket & Dane wins Mazel Bixer shorts, both available on ShopByBravo.com
Karen from Pennsylvania asked Dane what was the worst he's ever been heckled?
A guy who was very intoxicated during his performance was making a lot of noise and Dane finally asked him what's your problem? He responded I've got seven problems and your five of them.
Mazel of the Day: Goes to Wacha! This weekend marks the one-year anniversary since Andy adopted him. Adopt, don't shop people!
Jackhole of the Day: No JackHole tonight!
Drinking Game: DANE was said 13 times, if you are old enough to play along then you're old enough to know don't drink and drive.
AfterShow:

Greg from Illinois asked Candy how she think the media impact state and national elections?
Candy Crowley weighs in on whether or not she thinks the mainstream media influences the decision of voters, thus swaying the outcomes of elections themselves.
She understands that there's media that favors one side or the other in politics. Candy hopes that you watch CNN and her show and Anderson Cooper's show but also educate yourself with other reading material before forming your own decisions.
Dane says that Bush provided comments with the best material for comics acts.
Crystal from Texas called to ask Dane if he ever gets writers block and what's a good remedy for that?
Writers block was the first 10 years of his career.😂 The way to keep writers block away is to constantly go out and mingle with people and absorb the atmosphere they are in. Dane is always researching and trying out new sketches for his sets.
Heather from Kansas called to ask Dane how he dealt with people accusing him of plagiarizing jokes?
That was brutal because of how it affected his family and his fans. For him personally he knew he was not guilty of any such thing, when it comes the haters he kind of likes it. Dane enjoys a little contention sometimes.
Candy's most embarrassing TV moment was reading the star report out loud on TV. She had never read it and Reading about the cigar and all the details was a little much for her. If you get a chance to find that clip watch it.
Plug Alert: Watch Candy on CNN & Check out Dane's Showtime special that he directed himself this Saturday.
And with that Andy bids us a good night.
