The show, which features comic sketches, games and a guest interview and musical performance, has attracted high ratings since its 2014 premiere, consistently beating competition.

After being introduced to the crowd by the host, Eric, who appeared in his now famous Kenyan track and field uniform, began asking the audience to laugh because it was important to him.

Some of the famous guests who have appeared on the show include the current President of the United States, Donald Trump, former President Barrack Obama and Academy Award winner Lupita Nyong’o. The program airs weeknights on NBC.

Kenyans on Twitter were ungovernable.
