“The time I feel like I got him the most nervous, because he’s such a Kendrick Lamar fan, when I started getting him weighing in on the feud, like talking directly to Kendrick,” Jost revealed in Wednesday’s episode of the “I could tell he was really, really genuinely worried about what I was going to make him say,” Jost said.
