John Oliver doesn't waste any opportunity to crack a joke at the expense of AT&T, the parent company of HBO, which airs his late-night show,During his main segment Sunday night, Oliver spoke about the numerous adventure-seekers who set out to climb Mount Everest despite the many dangers they face.
He showed clips of how some climbers try to become the "first" of some specific label — for example, the first Canadian couple to climb to the top together, the first person to snowboard down the mountain, the first people to fly off the top in a paraglider, and the first to make the world's "highest-ever cell phone call" from the top of the mountain.
"Wow, nice work," Oliver said. "The highest-ever cell phone call, that's incredible. Well, it would have been, but unfortunately, [the climber] had AT&T so the call never went through! I got you, I got you, Business Daddy! I got you so good!" Then, as somber music began playing in the background, Oliver continued: "You know what? If I could actually get serious for a moment, there's something I've been meaning to say. I know I give you a hard time, Business Daddy, but the truth is, you're the only Business Daddy I have. And I know you just want what's best for me. I'm sure it's not easy having me as a Business Boy. And I probably don't say this as often as I should but, I love you, Business Daddy.
"I guess what I'm trying to say is, I'm so glad our connection isn't on your wireless network because it's absolutely terrible! I did it again! I got you, Business Daddy! I got you! … Business Baby is out of control! Wah, wah, wah!" He finished, as blue confetti fell from the ceiling.
