Transcript
- 0:00Speaker 1: Here he is every night, Monday through Friday. You got
- 0:02Speaker 1: to be listening to Jimmy Fallon here. 710 WOR 9
- 0:06Speaker 1: to 12. You go to sleep with Jimmy, you wake
- 0:08Speaker 1: up with Larry and me in the morning at 6.
- 0:10Speaker 1: But Jimmy, I'm concerned about you because I saw what
- 0:14Speaker 1: happened at Tallarico when he came to New York City.
- 0:17Speaker 1: September 28th, 2019. He was right here. He was at
- 0:20Speaker 1: Power 105. You know, Charlemagne the God appealing to the
- 0:24Speaker 1: black community in Texas. And then he came down with
- 0:27Speaker 1: the flu and he was out for 10 days. I
- 0:30Speaker 1: said to you the last time, you are the busiest
- 0:32Speaker 1: guy in show business. Jimmy, I will sit here in
- 0:35Speaker 1: this studio.
- 0:36Speaker 2: I will hold you.
- 0:37Speaker 1: Hold your hand tight as you get your flu shot.
- 0:40Speaker 1: Cause we don't want you to miss doing a double
- 0:42Speaker 1: header in Sandusky, Ohio and wheeling West Virginia in the
- 0:46Speaker 1: same night. And then coming back and doing all your
- 0:48Speaker 1: appearances on the Fox news channel.
- 0:51Speaker 3: I can't tell if you're taking shots at me or
- 0:52Speaker 3: you're taking shots at my agent. But I will have,
- 0:59Speaker 3: you know, Curtis, me and my bubonic plague. You've just
- 1:02Speaker 3: diagnosed me with. Are down in, I was in Clearwater
- 1:05Speaker 3: Beach this weekend. I just wrapped up two hot sold
- 1:08Speaker 3: out shows, by the way. And I may or may
- 1:11Speaker 3: not be filming an episode of Bar Rescue. But the
- 1:14Speaker 3: one thing I will tell you about you and your
- 1:16Speaker 3: vaccine and all that other jazz is I got hoodwinked
- 1:19Speaker 3: once by one of these. I got the Johnson and
- 1:21Speaker 3: Johnson during COVID. But what they didn't tell me is
- 1:24Speaker 3: it was Magic Johnson and Keyshawn Johnson.
- 1:27Speaker 2: And now I'm in a whole world- So I don't know.
- 1:31Speaker 3: What to do. I don't know what to do. It's
- 1:32Speaker 3: just nice to hear your voice from down here in Florida.
- 1:35Speaker 2: Hey, let's talk about Telerico for a second, because I'd
- 1:39Speaker 2: like to get your opinion as what happened. And in
- 1:43Speaker 2: the MAGA world, in the conservative world, there are a
- 1:45Speaker 2: lot of rumors going around that he had to get
- 1:49Speaker 2: mental health checked, that he tried to commit suicide, that
- 1:53Speaker 2: it was a sexual disease that he had, and he
- 1:56Speaker 2: had to get treated. We didn't hear from him for
- 1:59Speaker 2: two weeks. What do you think it was?
- 2:02Speaker 3: Well, it's concerning.
- 2:03Speaker 2: Okay.
- 2:03Speaker 3: Cause guy disappeared for two weeks. He's not even in
- 2:05Speaker 3: the Senate and he already thinks he's Mitch McConnell. You know,
- 2:08Speaker 3: you gotta, you gotta keep these guys in check, but,
- 2:11Speaker 3: but in truth, there was some type of exhaustion. I mean,
- 2:14Speaker 3: as my guests, some, you know, that he's calling it
- 2:16Speaker 3: the flu, the guy might've been burned. I don't have the,
- 2:20Speaker 3: the honest answer, but what they did, which is interesting,
- 2:23Speaker 3: if you know how political ops work, is somebody tipped
- 2:26Speaker 3: off a conservative influencer that he was being treated in
- 2:29Speaker 3: this Ohio healthcare facility. Somebody then went and recorded a
- 2:32Speaker 3: phone call that may or may not have been with
- 2:34Speaker 3: the actual facility. But the point is that kind of
- 2:37Speaker 3: tip is usually given to somebody who's not trying to
- 2:41Speaker 3: help the Republicans. He's trying to make them look bad
- 2:43Speaker 3: because everybody goes out, runs the story. And then the
- 2:46Speaker 3: Democrats go, see, it's not true. The clinic said he
- 2:48Speaker 3: had nothing to do with them. And in theory, that
- 2:50Speaker 3: puts the story to bed, at least from the mental
- 2:52Speaker 3: health angle. But the truth is, we don't know that
- 2:55Speaker 3: he wasn't treated. We just don't know that he was.
- 2:58Speaker 3: So you're supposed to just show a little more restraint.
- 3:02Speaker 3: But I just think this is where we are now.
- 3:05Speaker 3: It's not good. We live in this maximum strength Tylenol world.
- 3:09Speaker 3: where everyone is dealing in absolutes, and nobody has any idea.
- 3:13Speaker 3: That's what I find so fascinating about this. Even the
- 3:15Speaker 3: Ilhan Omar thing, okay? Everybody was like, Trump is fascist,
- 3:19Speaker 3: whatever the hell this is. Those warrants were signed for
- 3:21Speaker 3: under Joe Biden, okay? It did not start under Trump, okay?
- 3:26Speaker 3: And we should be concerned that we've got a congresswoman
- 3:29Speaker 3: who met her husband, matched with him on a dating
- 3:32Speaker 3: app called Ancestry.com.
- 3:34Speaker 2: Okay, that's concerning. Wait a second. Ancestry.com.
- 3:39Speaker 1: Now, which husband was it? Was it her brother? Was
- 3:42Speaker 1: it the first husband?
- 3:43Speaker 3: That's what I was going.
- 3:45Speaker 2: For with the Ancestry. See, I missed that. That went
- 3:48Speaker 2: right over my head.
- 3:49Speaker 3: How many of those shots have you taken?
- 3:52Speaker 2: Well, I would have held. Do you have a vaccine injury?
- 3:56Speaker 2: What's going on?
- 3:57Speaker 1: I would have held Tyler Rico's hand if he would
- 3:59Speaker 1: have gotten the vaccine when he was up here. But
- 4:01Speaker 1: I want to take you to Ohio, the Buckeye State.
- 4:04Speaker 1: The president's been acting a little strange of late. You know,
- 4:07Speaker 1: when he met with Zoran, he said, boy, this is
- 4:09Speaker 1: a handsome man. And then he's on the stage, packed
- 4:13Speaker 1: the audience, and he's looking at the sitting senator who
- 4:17Speaker 1: replaced J.D.
- 4:18Speaker 2: Vance.
- 4:18Speaker 1: And he goes, you know, Husted, I knew you were
- 4:22Speaker 1: a great athlete. I was staring at your ass. What
- 4:26Speaker 1: the hell was that about?
- 4:30Speaker 2: Well, here's the thing, man.
- 4:31Speaker 3: He needs the gay vote as much as the straight vote.
- 4:37Speaker 3: All these votes count the same, Curtis.
- 4:39Speaker 2: I don't know what you're talking about here.
- 4:42Speaker 3: He's just out there trying to boost some guy's poll numbers.
- 4:45Speaker 2: Good night, everybody. Hey, much like Trump, you've performed around
- 4:49Speaker 2: the country. You've been to all these red states like
- 4:52Speaker 2: Ohio and Iowa and Texas. I don't know if you've
- 4:55Speaker 2: ever been to Alaska to perform, but Alaska is one
- 4:59Speaker 2: of them too. Do you see any chance of them
- 5:03Speaker 2: really going blue for a Senate seat? I don't think so,
- 5:09Speaker 2: but this is the big problem.
- 5:10Speaker 3: It's always obviously turnout, but like Paxton is not a
- 5:15Speaker 3: good candidate, man, and Republicans will tell you that too.
- 5:18Speaker 3: It's like, you know, Tallarico's nuts, okay, and we know that.
- 5:22Speaker 3: But it's not like Paxton is this slam dunk guy
- 5:25Speaker 3: just the same. So that race, nothing would shock me. Ohio, man,
- 5:30Speaker 3: you know, that is where my wife is from. And
- 5:33Speaker 3: that state is all over the map right now. So
- 5:36Speaker 3: it's weird. But when I'm on the road, there's one
- 5:39Speaker 3: thing I'll tell you, okay? Is they're never talking about
- 5:43Speaker 3: what the media is talking about. Meaning they're talking about bills, safety,
- 5:49Speaker 3: human issues. And the media is focused, it's a lot
- 5:52Speaker 3: of sensationalism. Like last night at the Trump rally, a
- 5:54Speaker 3: protester got thrown out, it was crazy. that'll get a
- 5:57Speaker 3: lot of airtime today, but nobody will vote based on that.
- 6:00Speaker 2: You know?
- 6:00Speaker 3: So I, I, you know, I'm upfront enough to say,
- 6:02Speaker 3: I don't know, you know, that I guess is the
- 6:04Speaker 3: best answer I can give you.
- 6:06Speaker 2: You mean the guy, he said, you need a diet.
- 6:09Speaker 2: That guy?
- 6:10Speaker 3: Which was a girl, by the way.
- 6:12Speaker 2: Okay, I'm pretty sure.
- 6:14Speaker 1: How do you know?
- 6:15Speaker 3: How do you know for sure? Listen, man, in this
- 6:21Speaker 3: day and age, you don't. But she did look like
- 6:26Speaker 3: her pronouns were cat and lady.
- 6:34Speaker 2: Well, the offer is still available.
- 6:37Speaker 1: I would be more than happy to sit with you
- 6:38Speaker 1: in this studio, hold your hand real tight. Oh, real tight.
- 6:43Speaker 1: While you get that flu vaccine, I don't want to
- 6:46Speaker 1: see you down for the count. You're the busiest guy
- 6:48Speaker 1: in show business.
- 6:50Speaker 3: Yeah, I love this show because one of you is like, hey,
- 6:53Speaker 3: why is Trump talking about this guy's ass? And the
- 6:55Speaker 3: other is like, I want to hold every guy's hand
- 6:57Speaker 3: in this city.
- 6:58Speaker 1: I love this show.
- 7:01Speaker 2: It's my favorite show. It's just the best. You just
- 7:04Speaker 2: really don't know where it's going to go. All right, Jimmy. Hey,
- 7:07Speaker 2: congratulations on the sellout for the WOR show. That's great. Yeah,
- 7:12Speaker 2: we're pumped up for that. Kachina Calandra. It's going down.
- 7:15Speaker 3: I've already lied to the wardrobe department and said I
- 7:18Speaker 3: was out of town so they don't find me eating
- 7:19Speaker 3: bread in New Jersey.
- 7:20Speaker 2: So I think we're pulling the goalie. It's going to
- 7:24Speaker 2: be a big night.
- 7:25Speaker 1: By the way, has Natalie been sending you those snapshots
- 7:29Speaker 1: early of the loaves of Italian bread?
- 7:35Speaker 2: I'm going to. We better hang up before I text
- 7:37Speaker 2: her a picture of my cannoli. It's not getting good
- 7:39Speaker 2: over here. Oh. Wow, that sounded horrible. That just sounded awful.
- 7:45Speaker 1: All right.
- 7:45Speaker 2: Thanks a lot, Jimmy Fallon. Love you guys.
- 7:47Speaker 3: Be good.
