During the award ceremony, host Mike Birbiglia roasted Russell by reading a transcript of Russell's argument with Lily Tomlin that occurred on the set of I Heart Huckabees.[7][8] The event, specifically the joke and what that transpired around it, later formed a large part of Birbiglia's show, Thank God for Jokes.[9][10][11]
