Blake Griffin, the six-time NBA All-Star, joined Corden on the show's iconic blue couch to discuss his then-recent trade between the Los Angeles Clippers and the Detroit Pistons. The interview gave viewers a glimpse into Griffin's life on and off the court, including his love for stand-up comedy and hosting a comedy show in Los Angeles.

Feig spoke about the process of adapting the novel into a screenplay and working with the film's stars, Anna Kendrick and Blake Lively. Corden challenged Feig to participate in a game of "Heist or Missed," a segment where they had to guess whether a news story was a successful heist or a failed attempt.
Finally, comedian Demetri Martin took the stage for a stand-up performance, showcasing his unique brand of humor through a series of one-liners and sketches. Martin's set touched on a variety of topics, including the challenges of parenthood and the absurdity of everyday life.
In addition to the guests, the episode featured the signature segments of The Late Late Show, including Corden's opening monologue and skit, "Spill Your Guts or Fill Your Guts," and the highly-anticipated "Carpool Karaoke" segment, where Corden sings and chats with famous musicians as they drive around Los Angeles.
