Watch John Oliver’s Hilarious Recap of Every Fireworks Show Ever

Busy celebrating America’s birthday with the rest of us, John Oliver was off the air this weekend, but he still managed to cover Friday’s festivities. In a pre-recorded segment for Last Week Tonight, Oliver perfectly described every city in the country’s Fourth of July fireworks display, from Anchorage to Orlando.
