I WOULD LIKE TO THINK FOR A MIDDLE-AGED GUY, I HAVE MY
FINGER ON THE PULSE OF YOUTH CULTURE.
AT LEAST THAT'S WHAT MY FRIENDS GIGI AND BELLA HADID SAY WHILE
WE'RE PLAYING "FORTNITE."
BUT OCCASIONALLY A NEW TREND, EVENT, OR WAY TO EAT AVOCADO
COMES ALONG THAT EVEN I HAVEN'T HEARD OF.
FOR EXAMPLE, THE ANNUAL GATHERING OF YOUTUBE MEGA-STARS
AND SOCIAL MEDIA INFLUENCERS CALLED, "VIDCON."
OF COURSE, IF YOU'RE COVERING A GROUP OF PEOPLE TOO YOUNG TO
EVEN BE MILLENIALS, YOU WANT TO SEND "THE LATE SHOW'S" NEW
SENIOR YOUTH CORRESPONDENT: VETERAN ACTOR, RICHARD KIND.
( LAUGHTER ) I FIGURED RICH WOULD BE THE
PERFECT PERSON TO BLEND IN WITH VIDCON ATTENDEES, BECAUSE THEY
WEREN'T EVEN BORN IN 1996 WHEN HE AND I COSTARRED IN AN EPISODE
OF "SPIN CITY."
TAKE A #LOOK.

I DOING HERE?
I'M RICHARD KIND.
