EXCERPT:

DOOCY: "Do you remember that 80s Dunkin' Donuts commercial where the alarm clock goes off at 3:30?"
[clip starts]
VALE (as Fred the Baker): "Time to make the doughnuts."
[clip ends]
DOOCY: "Well, for the last 30 years, when my alarm clock goes off at 3:30, if it wakes up my wife Kathy, she always says, 'It's time to make the donuts.' And I say, 'You're right, it's time to make the donuts.' And I get up and I go to work. You know how many mornings my alarm has gone off at 3:30? Well, according to AI, 6,828 times. And that, ladies and gentlemen, is a lot of donuts. It is a great job, but the hours suck. (Laughter) Ainsley and I have talked about this for years, about how hard it is to dash back from wherever we are on the weekends to be live on this couch at 6 a.m. on Monday. But we have to because the curvy couch is an important part of the show. Which brings me to this public service announcement. After decades of getting up at 3:30 and driving into New York City in the dark, today is the last day I will host this show from the couch.”
