The Greatest Roast of All Time: Tom Brady, which was part of the Is a Joke Fest, was streamed live, which Netflix touted as the first-ever roast to be telecast live, unedited. The festivities were held at L.A.‘s Kia Forum in Inglewood.
Glaser said that the joke was a ‘reference to him kissing his son’ in the 2018 doc.
She shared her own perspective on the situation, saying she doesn’t think the NFL icon had done any wrong.
‘Which, my dad kissed me on the lips as a kid and throughout my adulthood so I really related to that and never judged in any way,’ Glaser said. ‘Other than, I thought it was a cute moment that we all took too seriously.’
Glaser continued, ‘But yeah, there was things like that – we all just agreed, “Let’s not throw the kids under the bus” – even though I just did it here.’
Glaser said that time constraints also led to material not being used in her set, as well as material that was not up-to-par, off-the-mark or similar to what others were doing.
‘Or it was just not as strong as others or it hit something that someone else was maybe touching,’ Glaser said. ‘Or that you’ll see some of them are just soft.’
Glaser told Stern another joke that she cut from the show: ‘Thank you all for being here tonight and taking some time away from cheating on your wives – hey, it’s not their fault – it’s their wives’ fault for aging naturally.’

Glaser said another topic she stayed away from dealt with football players suffering concussions and dealing with CTE (Chronic Traumatic Encephalopathy), but she initially had a joke written on the topic.
She said one of the jokes was, ‘First, I’d like to say that the proceeds from tonight’s show … are going toward CTE research – and the NFL’s coordinated effort to cover it up – people don’t know but it costs millions to murder those doctors who know the truth!’
Glaser said the remark was initially intended to be ‘some kind of commentary about CTE and how these guys really f***ing damaging their bodies and their brains all for the sake of men hugging each other in a Buffalo Wild Wings – “Like, I hope it was worth it fellas.”‘
Glaser did land a stinging joke on Brady in the roast, referencing his split from Moynahan in 2006 amid her pregnancy with Jack.
She said, ‘But seriously, Tom, you’re the best to ever play for too long – you retired, then you came back and then you retired again – I get it, it’s hard to walk away from something that’s not your pregnant girlfriend, it’s tough. Hey, to be fair, he didn’t know she was pregnant, he just thought she was getting fat!’
