Questions other than 'Why?' that Hannibal Buress answered during his show's premiere




You might know Hannibal Buress as the man who brought accusations against Bill Cosby or roasted the Biebs to a crisp alongside Martha Stewart.

But Buress, whose impressive resume includes gigs on Broad City, 30 Rock, and The Eric Andre Show, held his own when his show "Why? with Hannibal Buress"  premiered on Comedy Central Wednesday night.

And while the premise of the show is to let Buress explore the whys of the world, there were several other burning questions that he gave us the answers to – in the most hilarious way possible, of course.

Q: Will he address that pudding poppin' elephant in the room?


A: Totes.

Q: How come trolls have zero chill?


A: Because:


Q: What would happen if two of Comedy Central's biggest stars collided?


A: Fireworks! And this clip that is NSFW.
