"Jimmy Fallon"

Speaker 1 The family that vacations together stays together. At least, that was the plan.
Except now, the dastardly desk clerk is saying he can't confirm your connecting rooms. Wait, what? That's right, ma'am.

Speaker 1 You have rooms 201 and 709. No, we cannot be five floors away from our kids.
Uh, the doors have double locks, they'll be fine.

Speaker 1 When you want connecting rooms confirmed before you arrive, it matters where you stay.

Speaker 2 Welcome to Hilton.

Speaker 1 I see your connecting rooms are already confirmed. Hilton, for this day.

Speaker 3 Nobody wants to spend the holiday season clicking from one site to the next to get their hands on the best brands.

Speaker 2 Thank you, Jason. That was Jason.
Chowder. Yeah, no, Jason, we heard you.
Chowder. So we're saying the same word, right? Yeah, so.
Chowda. So we're saying the same word, right?

Speaker 2 Look, well, let's discuss this later. Yeah.
Welcome to an all-new smotlist. Smart.

Speaker 2 Smart.

Speaker 2 Smart.

Speaker 2 List.

Speaker 2 Oh, there's Sunshine. Oh, hi, Sunshine.
Everyone's hatless today.

Speaker 3 Hey, you guys going to go play golf today?

Speaker 2 Mini golf or big golf? No, no, no, adult golf. Oh, we're going to play adult golf.
No, see, Will wore wore his golf shirt to the broadcast today.

Speaker 2 I took mine off because I didn't want to get any heat from you guys, so I'm in a little sweatshirt here. You know why?

Speaker 2 Because I'm not worried about that kind of shit, dude, because I'm comfortable with it.

Speaker 2 Where do you see my polyester shirt today? Lots of stripes. Is that true? Accents on the collar.
Yeah, I got it.

Speaker 2 What kind of stripes are they? Are they... They're horizontal.
They're fattening stripes. Oh, dude.
I mean, you're not doing yourself any favor, and you're not stopping the chatter with that. No.

Speaker 2 You think I should go to verticals? Well, I'm just saying, how do you feel about the chatter? Have you heard about the chatter?

Speaker 2 There's been a ton of. Yeah, is there some talk? Well, there's been a bit of chatter.
I just need to stop eating, stop eating after six. I think I'd be okay.

Speaker 3 What did you do this weekend, Jason?

Speaker 2 Oh.

Speaker 2 So my neck. Jesus Christ.

Speaker 2 It feels so accusatory. What did you do this weekend?

Speaker 3 No, I was very, because Will and I went to...

Speaker 2 Sean and I did two. We did back-to-back dinner parties.

Speaker 3 Yeah, we were just wondering where you were.

Speaker 2 With your wife and without you. Oh, that's right.
Yeah, wait. Where was I?

Speaker 2 Well, Sunday night I went to the Ram game at SoFi Stadium, and then Saturday night, oh, I had to babysit Saturday night because

Speaker 2 Amanda had a girls' night, and so we couldn't go where you guys were.

Speaker 2 How was where I missed? Was it fun?

Speaker 3 Fantastic.

Speaker 2 Really fun. I'll bet.
Really fun. And Sean, you know, we talk a lot about Tracy.
Sean got to hang out with my sister two nights in a row. My sister's Shanley.

Speaker 3 She's fantastic. Shanley.
Shanley. Yeah, I love her.
Immediate connection.

Speaker 2 Yeah, I know. She loves Sean.

Speaker 3 A voice as low as yours almost.

Speaker 2 Well, almost, I know. Really cool.
She wanted me to tell you, Sean, that for a little while she was the voice of Yarlsburg Cheese in the tri-state area, Truce. Yeah, no, she mentioned that to me.

Speaker 2 Truce. She mentioned that to me.
Yeah, of course.

Speaker 3 Did she ever want to get into acting? No, that was it, the one who done.

Speaker 2 No, she just wanted to get into Yarlsburg cheese. I mean, that was kind of...
Topped out at Yarlsberg. That'll do it.

Speaker 2 She got some cheese.

Speaker 3 She's on good.

Speaker 2 So voiceover runs the family, huh? She did it for a minute. My dad claims that if anything happens to me, that he'll take over my gigs.
He's a low voice.

Speaker 2 Which is, by the way, kind kind of a shitty thing to say to your son. Like, that's what you're thinking about if something happens to me.

Speaker 2 When you die, son, it's not, don't worry, I'll take care of your sons. No, it's I'll take your gigs.
Yeah, I'll take your gigs. Yeah.
Uh-huh. Yeah, that makes sense.
Does he have a low voice like you?

Speaker 2 No. He does.
Jim Arnett's got a low voice. Jim Arnett's a good guy, though.
I'll tell you what. We haven't given up.

Speaker 2 You say that like you're trying to counter what you've heard people saying about it. Chatter.

Speaker 3 There's chatter about that.

Speaker 2 No, you know what? He's the most equitable guy I know. He's a very...

Speaker 2 What a lovely thing to say about your father.

Speaker 2 What a sweetheart sweetheart you are.

Speaker 2 It runs deep. It runs deep.
It's true. Listen, we got to get to our guests because we have a really, we got a hot ticket guest hiding behind

Speaker 2 something blurry. And

Speaker 2 we got a guy here.

Speaker 2 We got a guy

Speaker 2 you both, I think, know, and I think that as I intro him, it's going to give it away pretty quick.

Speaker 2 He's from the New York area. He's from the New York State region.
Andrew Dice Clay. He's got a size 13 shoe, according to him.
He once got in a bar brawl with Vince Vaughan.

Speaker 2 He was in Banda Brothers.

Speaker 2 Let me see if this helps. His ear was pierced by Harrison Ford.
What? He's got his own Ben and Jerry's ice cream.

Speaker 2 He once pulled an all-nighter with David Wells, who then went out and pitched a no-hitter the next day.

Speaker 3 Is this James Fallon?

Speaker 2 Sean, you're right. No, that's James Fallon.
It's Jimmy Fallon. Jimmy Fallon.
Woo-hoo!

Speaker 2 Woo-hoo-hoo!

Speaker 4 It is so great to be here on this show. MBC has done research and they found out the funniest thing is Smartless.
And so

Speaker 2 last night I was in a laboratory and it mixed with my vocal cords.

Speaker 4 And so I sound like this now. And MBC loves it.
It's the new voice of the tonight show.

Speaker 2 And I look kind of

Speaker 4 a little bit like Sean and Jason put together maybe with them.

Speaker 4 Don't even really sound, I don't even really sound like what

Speaker 2 I I can't even hear what the impression is. By the way, I love it.

Speaker 5 Was the impression close?

Speaker 2 It was pretty close. Yeah.
And you do good impressions. Yeah, you do good impressions.

Speaker 3 For real. Mind-blowing impressions.

Speaker 2 What's your best impersonation?

Speaker 5 You know, it's so funny because it dates me, but I used to do John Travolta from Greece. Yeah.
That was my best one.

Speaker 2 Did you audition with that for SNL? Because don't you do one? How does it go? Well, hang on. We'll let him hear.
He's warming up. Yeah, yeah.
Just feel it. Hey, you want me to come in?

Speaker 5 I usually close with Travolta.

Speaker 2 All right, you want me to open? Come in, huh?

Speaker 5 like it's like sam did you i swear to god i can't even like believe this thing

Speaker 5 i mean what's going on right sam i can't believe like i'm in high school these are what kids look like in high school like we're all 40 year old kids like i you guys get the new copy of aarp magazine i gotta get my prostate checked so i can't believe this it's like we're all high school kids That's very cool.

Speaker 2 Wait, that's hilarious.

Speaker 3 Wait, Will, who did you say Jimmy Fallon got in a bar brawl with?

Speaker 2 It was fun. No, I don't know that story.
Tell me that.

Speaker 3 I don't know that. All right.

Speaker 5 so it was with me and Vince on the same side. Oh, all right.

Speaker 2 Because I was going to say, that's a tough fight to win. Because Bateman almost got in a fight with Vince Vaughan years ago.

Speaker 2 That's a true story. And I had to break him up.
No,

Speaker 2 I would have run away from that.

Speaker 5 Yeah, he's a big dude. He's a tough dude.

Speaker 2 He's a tough dude. So we went out.

Speaker 5 He was hosting SNL, and we went to a bar with everybody, like the cast, and we were drinking. And we went to Hurley's bar, which is not even here anymore.
I think now it's a Magnolia Bakery.

Speaker 5 And we went into this bar, and I'm at the urinal next to Vince. And he goes, hey, Jimmy, Will is in the stall.
Let's just kick open the door and just like fool around and just, you know, surprise.

Speaker 2 Ferrell. Farrell.
Will Farrell. Yeah.

Speaker 5 So I go, oh, hilarious. Go for it.
So Vince turns around, he kicks the stall open, whoops, kicks it, and it's not Will Farrell.

Speaker 2 Oh my gosh. Just some dude.

Speaker 2 You mother, dude.

Speaker 5 He started throwing. I'm zipping up my zipper.

Speaker 2 I'm like, what the dude?

Speaker 5 We just started throwing punches. It was crazy.

Speaker 2 Everyone got split up.

Speaker 5 I go, what in the world? And Will was just outside on his phone. He was not in the stall.

Speaker 2 Just saying, my bad.

Speaker 5 Yeah, we got thrown out of the bar. And I think we went to another one.
We went to another bar to talk about it.

Speaker 2 What do you think? Imagine if you did that today.

Speaker 2 It would be just over. Yeah, right? It's a double cancellation.

Speaker 5 It wouldn't even be page six. It'd be the cover of the post, right?

Speaker 2 It'd be the cover of the post for sure. Are you kidding? They're waiting for that.
Jimmy. Wait a second.
Jimmy, Jimmy, Jimmy, Jimmy.

Speaker 2 So many millions of questions uh first of all you're an all-time hilarious guy you're one of those dudes man i you just always have made me laugh i think you're super super funny and you you kind of burst onto the scene you came onto snl how old were you when you started an snl five years old

Speaker 2 wow you were five years old a child yeah is that the youngest cast member ever yeah i was on i think eddie murphy was the youngest i think he was like 18 or something no way uh i was 23 when i got snl that's crazy 23 and then how long after starting SNL did you get on Weekend Update?

Speaker 5 That was probably, I stayed for six seasons, so I'd probably say

Speaker 5 three or four seasons later. And I didn't want to stay past three seasons.
I wanted to leave the show on good terms.

Speaker 2 And where did you want to go? What ideally was going to be the next step? I don't know. A straight actor?

Speaker 5 Yeah, I think movies was in my brain. I want to be a, I got, yeah, I thought in my head, Belushi.

Speaker 3 You only did six seasons of SNL?

Speaker 5 Yeah.

Speaker 3 Wow, it seems longer. I know it does.

Speaker 2 In a great way. In a great way.

Speaker 5 Chevy only did one season.

Speaker 3 And Marty Short did one.

Speaker 2 Wow. Marty only did one, too, huh? Yeah.
Only one. Now,

Speaker 2 where does the passion for acting in movies sit for you? I mean, you must be completely satisfied with the upgrade that you've made to the career you've had since. I mean,

Speaker 2 you got yourself a nice routine.

Speaker 5 I love it. Yeah, I love this.

Speaker 5 I didn't even know this was an option, to be honest. So I wouldn't even dream for tonight show hosting.
I didn't know this was a possibility. So, this is great.

Speaker 5 I get to do bits every day and dress up and act. I could do it's every day is a new, different, fun thing.

Speaker 2 Jimmy, how do you know you made it? Is it is it the aquarium in the background? He's got an aquarium in the background. Are you in Lauren's office? Is that Lauren?

Speaker 5 Yeah, I'm renting out Lauren's. It's like an Airbnb.
It's like it's called Offie BNB. And you share someone's office, you look online, you'd be surprised.
There's so many offices.

Speaker 3 And they have just a futon or a pullout?

Speaker 2 Yeah, yeah.

Speaker 5 there's a Murphy bed that I didn't, if it could only tell stories, you know what I'm saying? From the 70s. Oh, my gosh.
But yeah, I'm in Lauren's office. He's not here.

Speaker 5 I figured, well, you know, Saturday night, he comes in late. He doesn't really come in during the day, so I just take it over.

Speaker 2 I'm not going to use it. You may as well take it.
Why?

Speaker 5 Why use it when there's other places to use?

Speaker 5 You know, Danny and Steve, they would use other places.

Speaker 5 I'll go over to Danny's or I'll go to Steve's.

Speaker 5 Maybe Paul's guess which Paul Paul Schaefer

Speaker 5 wrong it's McCartney anyway let's play guess which Paul

Speaker 5 I love your show by the way and I know I know this show isn't about you guys obviously but it really is I I've heard about it I heard how funny it is and I go I got to listen to this thing It is unbelievably addictive.

Speaker 5 And I love your show. I love

Speaker 5 the way you guys are interested in people and have a conversation and a flow, and it's fun. And I'm doing it now, and I'm actually telling everybody it is real and it's so good.

Speaker 5 I also know when there's guests that want to get out of there and they're like, Yeah, we got to go.

Speaker 2 You know that feeling.

Speaker 5 Yeah, let's just do another commercial for something. And the commercial is funnier than the guests.
But I actually was listening to you, and I love this conversation so much.

Speaker 5 And I'm wearing my AirPods. I forget who the guests was, but you guys were so funny.
And my AirPod fell out of my ear.

Speaker 5 I think I have a loose ear hole.

Speaker 5 And it just fell in my ear and I didn't go back to pick it up. I left the AirPod in the street.

Speaker 2 What? Is that true? Those aren't cheap.

Speaker 5 I know, but the traffic was coming. Someone recognized me.

Speaker 2 Yeah, how do you deal with that? You're incredibly high profile. What are you doing crossing the street in New York?

Speaker 2 Do you get stopped left and right? You don't pay somebody across the street for it. What's going on?

Speaker 5 I do that as well. But they're the ones wearing my Fitfit and all that stuff.
So I get like, oh, I got my steps in.

Speaker 2 Like, hey,

Speaker 2 now, how good are you with, you know, because everyone's got a camera phone. Are you pretty good about stopping and taking pictures, or do you have a line that gets you past it all?

Speaker 5 I take pictures of everybody. I don't care.

Speaker 2 Yeah. Yeah, he does.

Speaker 2 I've seen Jimmy in action. He's very, he's very...

Speaker 2 You are truly a person, a guy of the people. You give a lot of time to people.
People stop you on a picture. You're like, yeah, yeah, yeah.
You're like every time. And Sean's very much the same way.

Speaker 2 I do that. You should see.

Speaker 2 He does 30, 40 selfies a day.

Speaker 3 I actually ask to have a picture.

Speaker 2 Even if they're walking the other direction,

Speaker 2 hey, hey, hey, hey.

Speaker 2 You didn't get your picture. trying to hurt my feelings you didn't get your

Speaker 2 are you trying to hurt my feelings

Speaker 5 i remember uh when i was in lauren's office and uh

Speaker 5 conan had just announced that he's leaving uh late night and then i want to say this is true but i want to say in six years he was taking over the tonight show

Speaker 5 like it was some something weird like that like in six years i'm taking over so lauren was and i was leaving snl And Lauren goes, would you have interest in hosting late night, taking over for Conan?

Speaker 5 And I was like,

Speaker 2 maybe, not really.

Speaker 5 I mean, I don't know what I mean. I think I'm just going to do movies.
And Tina Faye was there, and she's like, You'd be fantastic. You can talk to everybody.
You talk to people in the street.

Speaker 5 You just stop. You talk, you go to bars.
You're Irish. You're chatty.
You're totally, this is totally a good job. And then, you know, six years later, my movie career in the Dumper.

Speaker 2 Dumper?

Speaker 2 Yeah, sure.

Speaker 2 Yeah, sure. Will had three callbacks for the voice of Dumper.
And

Speaker 2 hey, everybody, it's me, Dumper.

Speaker 2 Well, that's that record. It's the voice of dumper.

Speaker 2 I've torn something.

Speaker 2 By the way, my 11-year-old last night, Abel, says to me, he and Archie and I were talking, and he goes, we're talking about middle school.

Speaker 2 And he goes, out of the blue, he kind of thinks for a second and he goes, middle school sucks. Hi, that's my best friend, Gordon.
He's kind of a dork, and so am I.

Speaker 2 And this is the story of my kind terrible life. Like, he did an intro for a fake movie about a middle schooler.
Unprompted, just sitting in the back seat. Unprompted

Speaker 2 out of the blue. It was so funny.
It was really funny.

Speaker 5 Was Abel, who sat behind the desk when he was a baby?

Speaker 5 That's Archie.

Speaker 2 I got a picture of Archie at the old late night with Jimmy, and I'm under the desk holding Archie's, what, maybe a year?

Speaker 2 Yeah, a baby. Yeah, total baby.
And I'm holding him in place, and Jimmy's sitting in the guest chair laughing, and Archie's in the host behind the desk in Jimmy's chair. It's so great.

Speaker 2 It's such a great pick. And we will be right back.

Speaker 3 Hey, Jimmy, let me ask you something. Do you feel like, because you work more than anybody, I just, there's got to be some days you're just like, I cannot do this.

Speaker 3 Like, how do you get through those rough days?

Speaker 5 At this point, I think I'm over. I mean, you just, you don't get sick.

Speaker 5 I mean, I actually, it's just, I look forward to it i actually still enjoy it yeah i'm i'm still at the years where i i'm actually curious and i know that every day will be a little different something will be it's actually perfect for me perfect for my brain because it's not the same people and what's the schedule do you take is there a a a pattern that you take off every single month or is it um it changes you know it's like uh

Speaker 3 but i think we probably do 200 something shows a year that's part of that's the conversation here's what blows my mind uh when when when will and grace did that reboot in i don't know 2017 or something, you were kind enough to have us on your show and we did this huge musical number.

Speaker 3 And this is what blew my mind. We showed up and you walked on to the stage and you were like, great, everybody ready? Great, let's do it.
And you knew it.

Speaker 3 in one rehearsal you're like got it everybody good great and i was like how can he how does your brain work where you do one run through of a huge fucking thing and you're like great got it on to the next it's unbelievable to watch i think that one too i think that we probably rehearsed maybe before you guys got there just to make sure, because that was a big get for us.

Speaker 5 But still. But that was a fun bit, too.

Speaker 2 Well, it should be.

Speaker 5 It was. It was a big deal.

Speaker 5 But we did love it. But, you know, we like to take big swings.
And, you know, I think from Saturday Night Live, you just know that when the light turns on,

Speaker 2 you got to do it.

Speaker 3 And the show goes on. But your brain must be like in that mode of like.
just

Speaker 3 one step ahead of everybody that you're working around, just so you can stay on your toes

Speaker 3 and think about what's coming next. I mean, you must have,

Speaker 3 your brain must be trained to think that way, yeah?

Speaker 5 I'm sorry, I wasn't listening. That's it.

Speaker 3 Me neither though. I was listening.

Speaker 2 I wasn't listening either. Let me ask you this: is there an opposite that you have to go to to balance it out? Like, do you ever get super quiet for a day or two? Like, what do the weekends look like?

Speaker 5 Yeah, I mean, the weekends are kids, you know, lots of, I have two little girls. Now it's like, so, but yeah, anytime, I mean, my favorite thing to do is do nothing at all and just not.

Speaker 5 I love hanging out with my wife. And, you know that that that was a good call

Speaker 5 and

Speaker 2 so I

Speaker 2 by the way it'd be so great like an anniversary dinner and like you guys just the two of you look up and you're just kind of eating having a nice glass of wine you look up across the light candle and you just go hey I just wanted to say this was a good call

Speaker 5 it's not too not too far from what happens but I I do I do like that you know I just

Speaker 5 quiet you know

Speaker 5 is is my favorite I can do that and I'm I'm very, I'm very happy doing nothing. I'm not an adventurous, really crazy.
I have to be out all the time.

Speaker 5 I don't really like more than four people at a dinner.

Speaker 2 Yeah. Right.
That's a good rule. What about the kids? Do they give you room for that? Or are they always like, let's go, Dave? Let's go.
Let's go. Let's go.
Funny face. Get on the floor on your knees.

Speaker 2 Let's play. Yeah.

Speaker 5 Yeah. I let the nannies raise them.
I haven't seen my kids in. three years, but they send me pictures and stuff, and they're well fed.

Speaker 2 Oh, that sounds nice. There's FaceTime.

Speaker 5 Yeah, and they're learning like some new type of jiu-jitsu.

Speaker 5 It's like a new thing. It's like

Speaker 2 they're here in the country? Sorry, I should have, we should, are they actually in the U.S.?

Speaker 5 What do you call the country? Okay, good.

Speaker 2 Continental. Continental U.S.
Continental U.S. We're going to.
Yeah,

Speaker 2 no. Okay.
No.

Speaker 2 No, you're kidding me. That's what you're saying.
Are they in any of the territories?

Speaker 5 Well, if you have a risk board, I can show you exactly where they are.

Speaker 2 Who's tonight's guest?

Speaker 5 Tonight's guest is a, we're doing a fun bit tonight.

Speaker 5 We didn't tell anyone but uh tonight's guest is will farrell but the real truth is uh jimmy kimmel's guest tonight is ryan reynolds but uh we're we're doing a trick and ryan reynolds is coming on my show and will is going on jimmy kimmel you guys i mean as they come out yeah so no one knows no one knows that ryan's coming out and and uh and rudd is doing uh cobert yeah oh yeah rudd is doing cold yeah and gal goodot is doing jimmy uh or uh cordon oh wait wait jason how do you know all of that jason doesn't know what he's talking about but by the way jimmy's looking up on the the board.

Speaker 2 He's like, yeah, Rudd, he's got Rudd's schedule on the wall. Yeah.

Speaker 5 I do have Rudd. Rudd is coming on with Will, weirdly, soon, like next week.
Isn't that weird?

Speaker 3 This might be a really interesting tidbit or a really boring one. Cue these guys.

Speaker 2 No, nothing.

Speaker 4 We'll wait. So

Speaker 3 I'm doing a play that opens in Chicago called Good Night Oscar. And I play Oscar Levant.
Oscar Levant was George Gershwin's best friend. And Oscar

Speaker 3 ended up in insane asylums. And it's this crazy story.

Speaker 3 addicted to prescription pills and amazing pianist and super funny and one of the tonight shows frequent guests because he was so funny and the play takes place and uh Oscar gets a pass to come from the insane asylum to appear with Jack Parr on the tonight show

Speaker 3 and then as soon as the segment's over he has to go back to the insane asylum it's loosely based on a on a true incident but I don't know if you've ever seen Oscar on the tonight show but he's hilarious no I've never seen that or even heard the story he would did the did the appearance and and then went back to the asylum?

Speaker 2 Yeah. Yeah.
Oh, my God. And are you, who are you playing? I play Oscar Levana.
The asylum. Oh, you do? I play the asylum.

Speaker 2 And is that scene in the play?

Speaker 3 Yeah, the whole play takes place backstage of the tonight show and then on the tonight show.

Speaker 2 No way. Who plays Jack Parr?

Speaker 3 Maybe somebody, but we don't know yet.

Speaker 2 Oh, you're in.

Speaker 2 You can't speak about that because he's such a high, high-profile person.

Speaker 5 I can do it.

Speaker 2 Well, hang on.

Speaker 2 So you'd have to come in and read for the, but I'm sure we could get you.

Speaker 5 Read for it? What are you talking about? I'm pretty much sure I do it every night.

Speaker 3 I mean, I could probably do it. But let me say, but the point of me saying all that, isn't it crazy that you are part of such a gigantic legacy?

Speaker 3 I know people, I know you've thought of it and then people commented on it all the time.

Speaker 3 But it's wild to know you and to know that you have succeeded all of these huge, iconic hosts of this institution. And now you are one of them.
Yeah, the tonight show.

Speaker 2 Jimmy, did you ever...

Speaker 2 Sean brings up a great point. The tonight show is the, well, you always bring up good points.
That's why you're the host of the year.

Speaker 2 But it's the gold standard, right? I mean, it's the tonight show is the first one.

Speaker 2 Do you remember, did you have a moment where you, like,

Speaker 2 I don't know, went into a room by yourself or went to a park and went like, or looked in the mirror and went, holy shit, I'm hosting the tonight show? How many hosts have there been?

Speaker 2 Are you fifth, fourth?

Speaker 5 Yeah, something like that. I think it's, yeah, it's Steve Allen, Jack Parr, Johnny, then Johnny,

Speaker 5 then Jay, Conan,

Speaker 2 Jay.

Speaker 2 Yeah, awful, terrible.

Speaker 5 And then me, yeah, sorry, yeah. So, yeah, six, six hosts.
Wow.

Speaker 5 It is amazing. I honestly, I never thought I would do any of this stuff.
I never thought I'd be on Siren Live. Smartless?

Speaker 2 Smartlist. Oh.
Smartlist. That's it.

Speaker 5 Never thought I'd be on Smartlist. Still not sure if this is going to make any of it.

Speaker 2 None of this is going to be on. You're going to have a new publicist tomorrow.
I'll tell you that much. Yeah.
That's the first call after this, I'll bet you're right.

Speaker 5 But I did, you know, SNL was like a big, that was all I ever wanted to do. That's all I dreamt about when I ever, I cut a birthday cake and closed my eyes.
Whenever I threw a coin in a fountain,

Speaker 2 I always wished.

Speaker 5 That's true. That's amazing.
And that was it. And then once I got there, I go, huh, like now what do I do? And then.

Speaker 2 Well, then can I ask when you did your audition? I would imagine there's already huge nerves for that.

Speaker 2 But given that you were praying for it since you were just a little baby, how did you even get through the audition? Were you not just paralyzed? You auditioned twice, right, Jimmy? Is that right?

Speaker 2 Yeah.

Speaker 5 Yeah, I didn't. I auditioned once at

Speaker 5 this comic strip here in New York City at a comedy club. I went on stage for three minutes, tried to get into my John Travolta impression.

Speaker 3 Didn't work.

Speaker 5 And I go, that year,

Speaker 5 they hired Tracy Morgan that year.

Speaker 5 We weren't really running the same categories. So that was good for them.
But I was totally depressed. And I was like, well, that was my shot.

Speaker 5 But then I went went back. I actually moved to LA for two years and I was

Speaker 5 I was taking acting lessons, but not really, but I was paying for acting lessons.

Speaker 5 And I was

Speaker 5 I did this thing. I took this this acting class and I read somewhere that James Dean didn't ever get on stage and practice and really do acting classes.

Speaker 5 So I didn't, I would never participate with the class. I would just sit there and watch because that's what James Dean did, like thinking I was James Dean.
Yeah, sure.

Speaker 5 And then I studied with the Groundlings. I started working with those guys.
And then, yeah, before I got the Groundlings,

Speaker 5 I got the call to audition again for Siren Live. And this time I did an impression.
I did a bunch of impressions. I did

Speaker 5 Adam Sandler. And this is at the time when no one was doing Adam Sandler.
Like, he was just left the cast. And so I did him.
And I remember as I was getting,

Speaker 5 you're right backstage at on SNL. You were actually in 8H, Studio 8H, in New York, where they make Siren Live.

Speaker 5 I remember I took pictures of the elevator because they had NBC carpeting in the elevator.

Speaker 5 I was like, if I never come back here, I want to show my kids like I was in the building, you know, and I was so excited.

Speaker 5 And they came, the guy puts the hair and makeup, they go, hey, just let you know, you're Jimmy, right? I go, yeah, they go, Lauren doesn't really laugh, so don't let that throw you.

Speaker 5 I go, sure, that's fine. And then I went over to the guy's putting my microphone.
He's like, here's your mic. He's like, hey.
Jimmy, good luck. But just let you know, Lauren doesn't really laugh.

Speaker 5 So don't let that throw you. I go, okay.
And then I go over, they're about to announce me, and the producer goes, or whoever's bringing me up, maybe is Marcy Klein.

Speaker 5 She goes, just let you know, Lauren's not a big laugher, so don't let it.

Speaker 2 I go, what is this guy's problem?

Speaker 5 He's in the comedy business.

Speaker 2 He should laugh more.

Speaker 5 So, anyways, I go on stage and I do my impression. I did, and I did Adam's town, and I was like,

Speaker 2 And

Speaker 2 Lauren started laughing.

Speaker 5 He started laughing, and he put his head in his hands.

Speaker 2 And he was laughing hard. That's great.

Speaker 5 And I go, even if I didn't get the show, I made Lauren Michaels laugh. And I was like, the rest of it was slow motion.
And I left and

Speaker 5 I just felt like I did a great job.

Speaker 2 That's great. Yeah, it was great.

Speaker 5 And then I got the call maybe, I want to say,

Speaker 5 it was a month later or something.

Speaker 2 They did it. No way.

Speaker 5 Yeah, they made me wait.

Speaker 2 So you must have thought that you didn't get it by that point.

Speaker 5 Yeah, I didn't think I got it. Actually, I was in L.A.
I went back to LA thinking I didn't get it. And then Lauren came to L.A.
He has an office in the Paramount lot which is beautiful.

Speaker 5 I love that lot. It's so much history and it's so cool and like I went to his office and

Speaker 5 he said he said Jimmy do you wear do you wear wigs?

Speaker 5 And I go no I just kind of do this to my hair. He's like no no I don't mean that he goes I just because we want you for the show

Speaker 5 and then I was like wow and I was like I promised to make you proud you know I was like I can't wait to do this.

Speaker 4 I was so excited.

Speaker 2 Wear wigs I'll fucking make wigs if you put me on the show.

Speaker 5 But he said to me you know he goes he goes then he started talking about the lot and everything i go i'd love it you know he goes paramount it's a great lot he's like you know sometimes you can leave it you'll see like a someone from star trek having a coffee break or something and as we were walking there was a kling on having a smoke break yeah there's a guy dressed as a kling on yeah he was yeah

Speaker 2 it was pretty funny to see a guy in the full yeah i would kill to do a season on saturday night live will sean would do how about you guys i mean let's do it would wouldn't that would that not be a dream yeah let's do it let's do a season

Speaker 2 And you know what? I'm not going to be even featured.

Speaker 2 I'm going to go straight to the podcast. I just think that would just be such a dream.

Speaker 3 Let's make our goal to not make Lauren laugh.

Speaker 2 And I'm going to host everybody.

Speaker 5 You guys have hosted, right?

Speaker 2 These guys have. I haven't.

Speaker 5 I did a good bit with Sean. Remember, we did our Jeffrey's bit.

Speaker 3 God, that was funny. I was crying laughing.

Speaker 2 Yeah. Me too.
What was the bit? We should do a new segment called Talk About the Bit. I like that.
All right, Talk About the Bit. You know what I mean? We got a whole new podcast out of that.

Speaker 2 Go ahead, Jimmy.

Speaker 5 I went to this, it was based on a story. I went to Barney's here in New York, and

Speaker 5 I walked in, I was getting a suit, and this guy was like, you were in the wrong store. And I was like, I just want to get a, I need to get a suit or a tuxedo for something.

Speaker 3 He goes, right.

Speaker 5 You should go maybe to the second floor.

Speaker 2 It's like athletic wear. I go, no, no, no.

Speaker 5 I belong in this floor. This is like suits, like Gucci and Hugo Boss, whatever it was there.
And he goes, right, right.

Speaker 5 You're not on the right floor just go really check out athletics or go go down i was like how this is the worst experience so i wanted to write a store a sketch about a store where they don't want customers in there and uh weirdly enough they were opening a store downtown called jeffrey or jeffrey's or something yeah yeah yeah on 14th street yeah very snooty so matt piemutt and i wrote this sketch called jeffree and uh sean and i were the with the with the workers at jeffree's and uh yeah we didn't want anyone there and then will was the manager right will was the manager and And I think what cracked us up so hard is he had, he came in, he rode in on a scooter.

Speaker 2 Yeah. Right.

Speaker 3 I don't think he rehearsed that. So that was a surprise.
And then he opened a cell phone that was the size of my pinky.

Speaker 5 The new thing, he's like, the new thing is a tiny cell phone. And it was like, he used

Speaker 5 a loop, like

Speaker 5 we look at rings with?

Speaker 3 Like a monocle? Yeah, yeah.

Speaker 5 Yeah, like a monocle thing to look at his cell phone.

Speaker 2 That's the only way he could read his emails is if he used

Speaker 5 like one of those jewelers

Speaker 5 loop the thing. So he lost it.

Speaker 3 I laughed so hard.

Speaker 5 Dude, he's so funny. That might have been the one.
Did he levitate on that one? Did he have a jetpack on that one?

Speaker 2 No, no, no, no.

Speaker 5 He had one where

Speaker 5 he was like, all right, guys, I got to go to Milan. Donna Tela Versace is calling me.
And he had to leave. And

Speaker 5 he had a harness on, and he had just run a marathon or something crazy. So he had all, he was cut up, all his crotch and his legs, and everything was all cut up, his nipples from running a marathon.

Speaker 5 This is what happens when people run a marathon. And I I remember him being in such pain being lifted up out of that sketch.

Speaker 5 And once he was out of the camera frame, like him wincing, like, oh, like, it was like right. The harness was right in his crush and yanking him up.
And like, by guys, I have to go to Milan.

Speaker 5 And they pulled him up, yanked him up. And once his feet were out of the camera frame, I could see his face be like, ooh, gosh.

Speaker 5 But I love that dude. That dude is unbelievable, man.

Speaker 2 Will and unbelievable.

Speaker 5 He is just the great.

Speaker 5 I was so lucky. I got to work with the best people.
It was like everyone was so nice and fun and great at improv. And it was just, I was so, I lucked out.

Speaker 2 Now, speaking of the marathon, do you do any of that kind of stuff? You do any of that.

Speaker 2 You know, we're all of a certain age. So are you trying to stay ahead of things and keep yourself out of the box?

Speaker 5 Yeah, I don't know what to do. I would not do a marathon.

Speaker 5 I don't think. I'd rather just root for people.

Speaker 2 But

Speaker 5 I think a treadmill, you know, I have one.

Speaker 2 Do you get on it, Eber?

Speaker 2 It doesn't sound like you have much relationship with it.

Speaker 5 I mean, what am I at now?

Speaker 2 Do it. Do it.
Just do it. Just do it.
He's just challenging.

Speaker 3 What are you at now? How many years? You guys daring me?

Speaker 2 Yeah, take the challenge. Beat Carson.

Speaker 2 No way. How many years?

Speaker 2 I'll do that stuff, man. I don't beat Carson.

Speaker 2 All right, let me try.

Speaker 5 Let me try to beat Carson more.

Speaker 2 Just try a little bit. All right, let me try.

Speaker 2 I don't really beat Carson. You watch.
I'll do it first. I'll do it first.
Okay, you go. You go, you go.

Speaker 2 You bear you. All right, all right.
Let me

Speaker 2 try it. Just take it, just a taste.
Let Let me do it.

Speaker 2 You know what, Jason? I think the kids got something. Jimmy, go ahead.
Be Carson.

Speaker 5 I think I'm doing it six years or seven years now. So that's 23 more years.

Speaker 2 Yeah. Good math.
Wow.

Speaker 5 Thank you. So that would be 60 years old for me.

Speaker 2 I could probably do it. Wait a second.
What?

Speaker 2 60 years old?

Speaker 2 I'm 40s.

Speaker 5 Oh, sorry, seven years.

Speaker 5 Yeah, I'm not good at math. Sorry, kids.

Speaker 2 Okay, still rolling.

Speaker 5 No kids are listening to this, right? Are you kidding?

Speaker 2 Kids listen to our show to learn about math, Jimmy. What? Christ, yes.
Don't you know that?

Speaker 2 What? Yeah.

Speaker 2 Yeah, it's not a bit.

Speaker 2 It's insane. Hey, speaking of math, Jimmy,

Speaker 2 that's my jam. That's my jam.
What is that? Talk about this. What are we talking about here? When I say that's my jam, what does that mean to you? What is it?

Speaker 5 All the mini music games we play in the tonight show, but just upton made it more primetime.

Speaker 2 Oh, oh, okay. Sorry, I got wrong information.
I thought it was you. You were traveling through Provence trying different jellies and stuff.
I thought that you were.

Speaker 2 Because somebody had sent me

Speaker 2 a teaser.

Speaker 5 That's my jam, isn't it?

Speaker 2 That is something somebody else had just done.

Speaker 2 I thought it was a sequel to That's Nacho Cheese.

Speaker 2 Right, right.

Speaker 5 That's my jam.

Speaker 2 Have you guys started listening to Christmas music yet? Jimmy, what's crazy is that that song that you guys did, you guys did on SNL, that has become like a Christmas staple. Yeah.

Speaker 2 Or whatever, I'm doing it wrong.

Speaker 3 Yeah. Wait, Jimmy, how did that happen? That is so funny and so odd.

Speaker 2 Tell Tracy what you're talking about.

Speaker 5 Yeah. There's a song that we did with Horatio and Katan and Tracy Morgan called Christmas Time is Here.
And

Speaker 5 Horatio wrote it. But basically, someone sent me a tiny guitar for Christmas.

Speaker 5 My agent, I think. And it was this tiny little guitar that they call the backpacker.
Like I would ever backpack with a guitar. I don't know when you need it, but...

Speaker 2 When you're on the treadmill, probably.

Speaker 5 Exactly. So, you're on, so I'm having the back.
So, they had this tiny guitar, and Horatio was just laughing at it, and he was like, What can we do with this thing? So, he just started playing, like,

Speaker 5 and then I had this keyboard in my office that had pre-recorded drum beats on it and loops.

Speaker 5 And so, I just started playing the loops, and then he would improvise music, and then we just started writing the song. And then, we did it too many times.

Speaker 5 We did it probably like 10 times or something. And

Speaker 5 I was sick of it by the end. But the first few were great.
But then Julian

Speaker 5 from the strokes,

Speaker 2 Casablanca.

Speaker 5 Chicasa Blancis. Love it.
He goes like, dude, I love that song. I want to do a cover of it.
And so he did a cover of that song. It's amazing.
And it was on the radio. And actually, it was on TV.

Speaker 5 It was on a commercial.

Speaker 2 I didn't know that. Really? Yeah.

Speaker 5 Yeah. So I got to go to commercial.

Speaker 3 So you guys were just kind of screwing around and made the song up, and that's how it happened.

Speaker 5 I mean, yeah, but we have no connection to that. So whoever gets money for it, it's not us.

Speaker 2 Even though you wrote it for us. Oh, I thought you wrote it.

Speaker 5 I did.

Speaker 5 I just don't know. On SNL, it just got blurry those years.
When you write the thing.

Speaker 2 So you never got paid when they sold it to Toyota.

Speaker 2 You never saw a dime. No.
Listen, who's your attorney? I'm going to jot this down. I want to talk to you after the show, because we're going to take these fuckers down.
I'm taking down.

Speaker 2 This is going to be a class act. No, no, no.
Everybody's getting named in this.

Speaker 3 I'm making friends everywhere.

Speaker 2 Who's the funniest person to you? Who makes you laugh more than anybody?

Speaker 5 I don't like to pick favorites on that stuff, but one of them.

Speaker 2 Will Farrell is always great.

Speaker 5 I agree. I'll second it.
He says yes before we even send him a script. He's like, yeah, I'll do it.
Go, but have you dressed like little Debbie? He's like, I don't care.

Speaker 2 Let's do it. That's great.

Speaker 3 And what about do your kids come to the tonight show and watch dad work? And are they like, wow, this is amazing or no?

Speaker 5 No, they came once when they were babies because I just figured it would be cool for them to see the show and they wanted to see Timberlake. And that was, that was like, yeah, but that was it.

Speaker 5 No, they don't come. But they watch every now and then.

Speaker 2 That picture of Archie that I have from you sitting, he's sitting at the desk with you sitting next to him. I just sold his NFT for $36 million.

Speaker 2 Wow. Just to let you.
Yeah, yeah, because I owned it. Nobody gets a piece because that's when I sold the Christmas song to Toyota.
They said, you get to own all of this.

Speaker 2 You're getting all of my royalties. It's unbelievable.

Speaker 2 That's how NFTs work. Welcome to Ethereum, buddy.
It's all the blockchain. I mean, I know what I'm talking about.
You really do. Wait, wait, wait.

Speaker 2 Do you your kids have any sense of what you do because you live in that such an adult world? It's late night TV and comedy.

Speaker 5 do they have any sense of that at all now and then they'll be like uh they'll be like uh you're jimmy fallon or something you know and i go yeah mr fallon to you like that

Speaker 5 your dad you know yeah mr fallon to you but they go yeah and then my my youngest daughter she goes uh you're famous i go i go uh yeah she goes but but not that famous

Speaker 2 Who said that? I mean,

Speaker 2 who taught you that?

Speaker 5 What kid in school? I want to find the brat in your class that said I'm not that famous. Guess what? More famous than her dad.

Speaker 2 Yes.

Speaker 2 But honestly, I mean, you are so high profile.

Speaker 2 Every time you guys go out as a family, there must be at least one time when somebody stops you. And so how do you answer that question from your kids when they say, how does that guy know you?

Speaker 5 Yeah,

Speaker 5 I think they've said it a couple times, like, you know everybody or something. They just think I'm friends with everybody.

Speaker 2 You're like, yeah, I work at Minekey. You know what I mean? I got lots of customers.
People come in all the time to get their car. Yeah, work at the Jiffy Lou.

Speaker 2 And Minekey.

Speaker 2 By the way,

Speaker 2 I had my.

Speaker 2 Oh,

Speaker 2 this is a true story. This little girl somewhere in North Carolina,

Speaker 2 she had a Willarnet-themed birthday party. It was on Twitter, and I retweeted it, and I said, the kids are all right.

Speaker 2 And she, so this girl, she had this party, birthday party, I should wear t-shirts with my face on it and stuff like that. So first thing, I showed it to my kids.

Speaker 2 I go, check this out last night at dinner. And they both go, oh, yeah.

Speaker 2 Nothing, right? So that was the first thing.

Speaker 2 Secondly, then when you read the story, and I had a bunch of friends send me, they kept saying, and this little girl had her friends, and her friends have no idea who Will Arnett is.

Speaker 2 I mean, they said that at least five times in the article, how nobody knew who the hell I was. And I was like, why? Hey, man, why you need to say that? You don't have to write that.

Speaker 2 You don't need to write that.

Speaker 5 The headline is that she did it.

Speaker 2 She did it. That's it.
That's so fast. We don't need to go through how many people knew who I am.

Speaker 2 I'd love one of those t-shirts. Yeah.

Speaker 5 Yeah, I want one of those t-shirts too now.

Speaker 2 I'm going to get them made. I'm going to get them.
I'm having this girl on the podcast. We're going to have her on the podcast.
She sounds like a smart kid.

Speaker 5 It's so weird. I just made my camera blurry.
Yeah.

Speaker 2 It is true. How did that happen? You got auto-focused.

Speaker 5 That's an acting thing. No, it's my face.

Speaker 2 Oh, that's your face doing that?

Speaker 5 My face can be blurry if I want to. No one knows this.

Speaker 5 No one has this acting talent. I can make my face look blurry if I want to.
And it's tricky for directors.

Speaker 2 Yeah, yeah, yeah. Because you control, because they're like,

Speaker 2 do directors ever go, stop doing that?

Speaker 5 Look at me.

Speaker 5 The fish tank's blurry. I'm blurry.
Everything in this picture, I know you can't see when you're listening to the picture.

Speaker 2 You have a camera that's not focus on it, though. I mean, like, mine, everything's in focus.
And look at that. My hand's in focus still, and so is my face.

Speaker 2 He's got an auxiliary camera. There you go.

Speaker 2 It's not coming out of the computer. He's got another camera.
Oh, mountain. Oh, there it goes.

Speaker 2 Look at it now. There it is.
You need a new way to see it.

Speaker 5 It's falling all in the eyes, all in the eyes, Oodahagen.

Speaker 2 Jimmy, I was thinking about you, you, Jason, and me had dinner. Sorry, Sean.

Speaker 2 You had already gone back to L.A.

Speaker 2 This summer at the end of the summer, kind of close to the end of the summer for us.

Speaker 2 It was our last night on the East Coast. It was fun.
It was so much fun. We had so many laughs, and I always feel like every time I see you, we always start laughing.

Speaker 2 We end up like kind of at the end of the table, just doing bits and screwing them. And the three of us were fucking around.
And then just like, and then there are like 10 other people.

Speaker 2 We're like, oh, yeah, yeah, there's the other people. But we just end up fucking around the whole time.

Speaker 2 I don't even remember who else was there. I know.

Speaker 3 They're going to love that.

Speaker 2 No, no, no. that's not, you know.
No, we know who's there. You know who they are.
We're not saying, you know.

Speaker 5 Yeah, yeah. We just ignored them.

Speaker 2 We just ignored them.

Speaker 5 That's what you're saying.

Speaker 2 Yeah, you were rude. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
I was rude because there were some heavy hitters at that dinner. There was a big, right?

Speaker 5 There was some big, heavy hitters.

Speaker 2 And the big topic the three of us were talking was get your ass on the podcast. I'm glad this finally happened.
I know.

Speaker 2 Long overdue.

Speaker 5 Long overdue, but I just, I'm such a fan of all three of you guys. And

Speaker 5 you couldn't be funnier. And

Speaker 5 when you realize how big this show is and what it does for people, and you're making so many people laugh. And it's these times where people are going through so much anxiety and all this stuff.

Speaker 5 Really, you're really helping people. So I really like that.

Speaker 5 Not just me saying this. Everyone loves you guys.
I mean, and Sean is the best, but.

Speaker 2 Wait, Jesus.

Speaker 2 That's a known thing. No.
We got to go.

Speaker 2 You should have just closed the computer right after that. Shouldn't have just shut it down.
You just slam it.

Speaker 3 We could do something different and actually talk about Jimmy in front of him, and then he could do the sign-off, our famous sign-off. Let's do it.

Speaker 2 Let's do it. Okay, Jimmy, hang on.
So this is going to be awkward. So, guys, how great was that having Jimmy on the show? So great.

Speaker 3 I love him. I can't believe the trajectory of success that he's had from when he was 23 years old.
I can't believe he started when he was 23.

Speaker 2 I know, and I've been wanting to have him on for a while.

Speaker 2 We couldn't make his deal. We couldn't make his dates.
He's a very busy guy. He does the show.
So we've been, this has been a long time coming.

Speaker 2 And it's one of those ones I knew that you were going to maybe do the show. I knew he was going to do it.
Maybe even when we saw him, that it was a possibility.

Speaker 2 So I was just excited that he was on the show today. Yeah.

Speaker 3 Every time, every, I feel like every time I see him, he always makes me laugh. Never, ever doesn't make me laugh.

Speaker 2 Here's the other thing I'll say about him. He's like the, Sean, you'll, you'll attest to this.

Speaker 2 Such a talented guy in the real old school sense of the word.

Speaker 2 Really funny, very musical. Yes, good actor.

Speaker 3 Not a lot of the people can do. There's like three people in the world that can do what he does.

Speaker 2 Yeah, Yeah, like look at Jason. Jason has half of those, like half of one of those things.

Speaker 5 Jason hasn't said anything.

Speaker 2 No, Jason, what do you like about Jimmy? Talk about it. I like that he can sing and he can dance and he can laugh and he can cry.

Speaker 2 He's got a great wife

Speaker 2 and a great life, and he's nice to people. He takes pictures with the public.

Speaker 3 And you know what? He pretty much ends

Speaker 3 his show the same way we end it

Speaker 2 by saying, Sean, Sean,

Speaker 2 see, Jimmy,

Speaker 2 at this moment, usually on the week. I know it's why or something? Yeah, we all try to think up somehow to wiggle in the word by into

Speaker 2 the stupid thing ever. I've been trying to land it so much early.
Sean's just trying to get out of it so much earlier in an inorganic way.

Speaker 5 Well, no, no, but does Jay, Jason, by the way, this is very awkward for me to hear the post-interview talk. Yeah.
But Jason really nailed it more than you guys. Thank you.

Speaker 2 Jason didn't say anything. Well, I just sit on the the sidelines.

Speaker 2 We use that one.

Speaker 2 We have used that one. And I will say, just because we're still rolling, yeah, you know, Jason always makes it like personal, but in this way, he's always talking about Brian Reynolds.

Speaker 2 He was like, your little angel who came into your life. Stop talking about other dudes' wives.

Speaker 2 She's a great lady. Shut the fuck up.
It's really creepy. Stop saying that.
I have such a great wife. I'm going to, if I wasn't, I'm going to punch you in a half an hour.
It was a good call.

Speaker 2 You know, it was, what did he call it? He does have a great, you do happen to have a great wife.

Speaker 2 This is the after-credits wrap-up that he doesn't even know about. Because it's all, we have to have our own wrap-up to it.

Speaker 4 You know,

Speaker 4 I have

Speaker 2 an early admission.

Speaker 2 The other night I was trying to fall asleep and trying to, you know, you try to think of things when you're falling asleep. How do you fall asleep? I started thinking about different buys.

Speaker 2 And I could go, well, what things Ryan would buy?

Speaker 2 And I came up with five or six things,

Speaker 2 but he didn't have a pad of paper next to me, and I've forgotten them all now. So

Speaker 2 the gummy loads. What was the gummy load?

Speaker 2 He's about 50 or 60 grams, probably.

Speaker 2 Are you an animal? I don't know.

Speaker 3 I don't know.

Speaker 2 I don't do that stuff. Will, come on.
Wow.

Speaker 2 So,

Speaker 2 so that Jimmy Fallon, was he not fantastic?

Speaker 2 He is just a pillar. Always great.

Speaker 2 Just a real treasure.

Speaker 2 our show.

We're going to cut in the other one. We are.

Speaker 2 No, no, but he, but it wasn't any good because he said, I laugh, I cry, and I always buy what?
