Following reports that Barack and Michelle Obama are in the midst of discussions with Netflix to produce content for the streaming service, Conan O’Brien and his late-night talk show writers took the notion one step further by imagining what that content would look like.
The result: the former U.S. president’s very first standup comedy special, with “Conan” running a faux promo from the parody special, “Barack Obama: The Greatest President of All Time”.
In the fake promo, an Obama impersonator is seen onstage cracking jokes in front of an audience. “People ask me what it was like to be the most powerful person in the world, and I say, ‘I’m not sure, let me ask Michelle,’” he quips in the teaser, which goes on to showcase some of his edgier material.

“If Donald Trump is watching, before I left office, I hired Rahm Emanuel to pee on the mattress you’ve been sleeping on,” he says in a zinger, referencing the unconfirmed report from Christopher Steele’s infamous dossier claiming that Trump hired prostitutes to urinate on the same bed in which the Obamas slept when they visited Moscow.
Further topics tackled in the standup special include the importance of washing one’s butt and when Starbucks baristas get your name wrong when they write it on your coffee cup. Check out more Obama comedy in the video above.
