Colin Jost Sharing “Foot Update” Had to resign as NBC Olympics swimming reporter The injuries to his feet resulted in multiple infections.
Jost, 42, appeared in a video posted to Instagram on Sunday, standing on a Mediterranean beach and delivering the latest news like a news anchor.
“‘Man, are you okay?’ That’s the first text I’ve received in the past 48 hours. ‘Well, I’m actually fine! Despite whatever grand media conspiracy would have you believe, I’m not banned from the Olympics. ‘Send home’. NBC just looked at my food, legally declared me a leper, and exiled me here to the island of Malta!
“Now Malta didn’t have a lot of Olympians competing this year, but they did have thousands of 15-year-old British kids competing to see who could pass out the fastest, and somehow they all won,” Jost continued. “They also had this casino behind me where I spent hundreds of dollars that I made as a surf journalist.”
“But of course the real reason I came to Malta was because there were 10 outbreaks of the Black Death here,” he added. “So they thought I would be a good fit.”
“I want to thank the people of Tahiti for their warmth, hospitality, generosity, and for occasionally looking at my feet and whispering ‘Chupacabra!'”
