We were lucky enough to catch him amidst his busy schedule and here's what he had to say about his participation in this prestigious event "I'm very excited about being nominated and also hosting the Emmy Awards, but I'd feel so much more comfortable if I could get Ryan, Tom, Howie and Heidi to sit down at the poker table with me. I'd go all-in and they'd go down!" You go Jeff! We'll be rooting for ya!
