Jerry Seinfeld covered presidential bathroom routines with Obama on Comedians in Cars Getting Coffee

Jerry Seinfeld released the trailer on Wednesday for the seventh season of his web series, Comedians in Cars Getting Coffee. On Dec. 30, he's kicking off the season with someone who isn't exactly a comedian by trade: President Obama.
The Washington Post caught up with Seinfeld both before and after he picked up Obama at the White House in a 1963 Corvette Stingray this summer:
"I wanna know how far he can get in his underwear before it's weird," Seinfeld said from the passenger seat of the SUV. "And can you really get a good night's sleep in this place? It's like Night at the Museum to me, sleeping in the White House. I just had another question: Are you ever talking to somebody and do you ever think, 'This guy's out of his mind'?"Everything went as scheduled the following day. Obama drove the Stingray on the White House grounds. The pair chatted in a basement dining room and Seinfeld asked about presidential bathroom routines, and the difference between presidential garbage and non-presidential garbage. [The Washington Post]
The episode should prove a great addition to Obama's comedic resume, which already includes appearances on Between Two Ferns and WTF.
