Galifianakis began the interview by apologizing for having to cancel on the president "a few times"before later asking Obama which country he was rooting for in the Winter Olympics and whether he planned to build his presidential library in Hawaii or "your home country of Kenya."
The insults weren't entirely one-sided, however. When asked whether he was disappointed at not being able to run for a third presidential term, the president responded: "Actually, I think it's a good idea. If I ran a third time it would be sort of like doing a third Hangover movie. It didn't really work out very well, did it?"
