Hannah Stocking Gives the Meaning of Life on GOOD NIGHT WITH BEN GLEIB: 'My Mom'
Stocking's fake surgery exit turns into another signature viral moment.
Hannah Stocking finally landed on a correct answer after a run of misses during a Thunder Round segment on GOOD NIGHT WITH BEN GLEIB, telling host Ben Gleib that the meaning of life is, simply, her mom. The exchange capped a rapid-fire question segment before Stocking attempted to make her exit, claiming she needed to leave to perform surgery, despite not being a doctor.
Stocking has built a following of 74 million people online, making her one of the most prominent internet comedy figures to appear on the show. She has been a recurring guest on GOOD NIGHT WITH BEN GLEIB, previously walking Gleib through the labor behind her viral video montages and revealing she once rescued 18 cats off the street in a single month.
True to form, Gleib pulled Stocking back before she could leave for her fictional surgery appointment, roping her into one more bit for a viral video. The moment continues a pattern from her appearances on the show, where offhand remarks and physical bits tend to turn into standalone segments, following past visits that touched on everything from a pandemic tattoo hobby to old stories of running from police as a teenager.
Stocking's history on the program includes a Nightcap segment where she recalled running from cops and jumping off a cliff as a teenager, part of a recurring dynamic between her and Gleib that blends personal stories with off-the-cuff comedy bits like this latest Thunder Round exchange.
