Like with so many things that they deconstruct with goofy abandon, John Mulaney and Nick Kroll dove into their opening monologue for last night’s Spirit Awards with the same freewheeling, devil-may-care spirit. 

You’ll notice that they pick apart the idea of an awards show monologue, trope by trope, while effortlessly going through actual jokes and then closing with a particularly spectacular finish.
