• 2:45
  Speaker 3: and it's fun there. So Fox Across America, free show
• 2:50
  Speaker 3: tonight at eight o'clock. And hey, we saw each other
• 2:53
  Speaker 3: a Monday night. We had dinner with Mark Malkoff, the
• 2:56
  Speaker 3: guy who wrote the greatest Johnny Carson book. Ever, And
• 2:59
  Speaker 3: wasn't that interesting studying the great Johnny Cars.
• 3:02
  Speaker 1: That was And I'm telling you this, that's the only
• 3:05
  Speaker 1: time in anyone's life that a dinner has lasted four
• 3:08
  Speaker 1: hours where no one was drinking. That was incredible. Like
• 3:12
  Speaker 1: he had just such a wealth of knowledge between the
• 3:15
  Speaker 1: two of you, and you know, I was just on
• 3:17
  Speaker 1: the other side of the table, kind of hanging out
• 3:19
  Speaker 1: doing my thing and I but it was. It was magical.
• 3:22
  Speaker 1: Like he's like obviously a walking encyclopedia. You know, you're
• 3:25
  Speaker 1: connected to every news figure of relevance who've ever lived.
• 3:29
  Speaker 2: I think I think you're the third guy.
• 3:30
  Speaker 1: In that Daily Plaza video all the other stories you
• 3:34
  Speaker 1: told me. I'm like, I'm pretty sure Simon was there too.
• 3:37
  Speaker 2: But it was.
• 3:37
  Speaker 1: It was so good, and I would be remiss if
• 3:39
  Speaker 1: I did not shout out it was Mastro Steakhouse.
• 3:42
  Speaker 4: Is that where we were?
• 3:43
  Speaker 3: Yeah, it was phenomenal.
• 3:46
  Speaker 1: Wait, yeah, they they deserve credit because it was great,
• 3:51
  Speaker 1: and I'd be wrong if I didn't shout him out.
• 3:52
  Speaker 2: I even, which is funny. I ate a salad, which.
• 3:55
  Speaker 1: I don't think you're supposed to be doing right now
• 3:57
  Speaker 1: because of this crazy story in the news about people
• 3:59
  Speaker 1: getting thick. But I had a salad before a port shop.
• 4:02
  Speaker 1: But whatever the heck I ate It was a a
• 4:04
  Speaker 1: ten out of ten, no notes, it was great.
• 4:06
  Speaker 3: It was phenomenal. And we got to thank Tom Cuddy
• 4:08
  Speaker 3: because he picked up the check. Otherwise it might have
• 4:11
  Speaker 3: been a staring contest for a while.
• 4:17
  Speaker 4: But that's hilarious.
• 4:19
  Speaker 3: So yeah, you know the idea, Johnny Carson, it doesn't
• 4:23
  Speaker 3: exist in today's world. Like every comedian is partisan biased,
• 4:26
  Speaker 3: I'm late night comedians except for you. Your monologue is
• 4:29
  Speaker 3: like Johnny Carson, You'll make jokes about both sides.
• 4:31
  Speaker 1: Right, Yeah, I'm gonna get beat up for this one
• 4:34
  Speaker 1: because it's all over the map this week.
• 4:36
  Speaker 4: It's just a lot of things that happened.
• 4:39
  Speaker 1: But no, But the point is, if you're really doing
• 4:42
  Speaker 1: your job, whether you're a comic, you're a singer, you're
• 4:44
  Speaker 1: a ballplayer in those fields, we are giving people common culture.
• 4:49
  Speaker 1: That's always been the job description. Common culture just means
• 4:53
  Speaker 1: everybody does this thing. You know, listen to music, laugh
• 4:57
  Speaker 1: at jokes, you know, watch a ball game, and and
• 5:00
  Speaker 1: that's what you're supposed to do. The minute you start
• 5:03
  Speaker 1: catering to any ideology, like exclusively then you're not. It's
• 5:07
  Speaker 1: not common culture, it's you know, it's exclusive. And so
• 5:11
  Speaker 1: I look at the show like an homage. You know,
• 5:14
  Speaker 1: I'm literally doing this show like I'm trying to honor
• 5:18
  Speaker 1: what I grew up watching. And it's a good compass
• 5:21
  Speaker 1: for me because you don't catch yourself saying things.
• 5:24
  Speaker 4: That you don't mean, you know, to try to play.
• 5:26
  Speaker 1: Caid an audience, and more importantly, you don't limit yourself
• 5:30
  Speaker 1: by taking targets off the table, Like I make fun
• 5:33
  Speaker 1: of Trump a lot, and he likes it. He tweets
• 5:35
  Speaker 1: about it because I'm not doing it in a malicious way.
• 5:38
  Speaker 1: But like, if you were to think about the last
• 5:40
  Speaker 1: four or five years of Late Night, because those guys
• 5:42
  Speaker 1: wouldn't go after liberals, think of all the Biden jokes
• 5:46
  Speaker 1: their audience missed out on, Like imagine you know this, Okay,
• 5:50
  Speaker 1: Chevy Chase probably fell down the stairs as Gerald Ford
• 5:55
  Speaker 1: for ten years on Saturday Night Live, and.
• 5:57
  Speaker 2: That was one incident. Okay.
• 5:59
  Speaker 1: Joe Biden gave us about sixty five.
• 6:01
  Speaker 2: Thousand of those incidents.
• 6:03
  Speaker 4: Yeah, and he wasn't getting touched.
• 6:05
  Speaker 1: And you realize that, you know, that hurts those shows
• 6:09
  Speaker 1: because there were jokes to be told that are funny.
• 6:11
  Speaker 1: They don't have to be malicious. You can't look at
• 6:13
  Speaker 1: it as a comic. Is is this joke gonna help
• 6:16
  Speaker 1: a political party or hurt them?
• 6:17
  Speaker 4: You just gotta look at it as if it's funny,
• 6:19
  Speaker 4: you know.
• 6:20
  Speaker 3: Yeah, Hey, wasn't it great that Mick Jagger came out
• 6:23
  Speaker 3: and said, Bruce Springsteen's got to stop lecturing the audience
• 6:25
  Speaker 3: about politics. They're there to have fun. But wasn't that great?
• 6:29
  Speaker 4: Oh?
• 6:30
  Speaker 1: I thought that was so amazing because he is the
• 6:34
  Speaker 1: ranking statesman in.
• 6:35
  Speaker 2: Music, you know, he is.
• 6:38
  Speaker 4: You know, you'd say, you know, McCartney's up there, but
• 6:40
  Speaker 4: it's in any order.
• 6:41
  Speaker 2: It's McCartney and Mick Jagger.
• 6:43
  Speaker 1: And you almost have to give it a Mick Jagger
• 6:45
  Speaker 1: because that he looks good.
• 6:47
  Speaker 2: Man, he is eighty.
• 6:48
  Speaker 1: I was watching an interview, dude, he is.
• 6:51
  Speaker 2: You know, it's funny.
• 6:52
  Speaker 4: You know what it makes me think?
• 6:53
  Speaker 1: You know, Like I grew up in the eighties, Nancy
• 6:55
  Speaker 1: Reagan used to say, you know, just say no. But
• 6:57
  Speaker 1: based on how good the Stones look, maybe she should
• 6:59
  Speaker 1: have said just yes.
• 7:01
  Speaker 4: I don't know they were they were.
• 7:03
  Speaker 1: Doing all kinds of fun stuff of the eighties.
• 7:05
  Speaker 4: Marhamoments I don't know.
• 7:08
  Speaker 3: I disagree with you. I think Mick Jagger is great,
• 7:11
  Speaker 3: but McCartney ranks above them.
• 7:13
  Speaker 2: Sea No, that's fair.
• 7:14
  Speaker 1: I mean I could say you could you could tell
• 7:16
  Speaker 1: me they're in any order. I think the Beatles are
• 7:18
  Speaker 1: the superior band. But the Stones are touring like right
• 7:23
  Speaker 1: now you know it, you know, and they put out
• 7:25
  Speaker 1: another album.
• 7:26
  Speaker 2: You know, they've adjusted for their age. I believe Start
• 7:28
  Speaker 2: Me Up is now called help Me Up.
• 7:30
  Speaker 4: But that's okay.
• 7:32
  Speaker 3: Well, every band is just fighting and fighting. They can't
• 7:37
  Speaker 3: they can't tourk because they're all fighting. What about the Stones.
• 7:39
  Speaker 3: I think nobody's ever left the band. It's amazing.
• 7:43
  Speaker 1: That is crazy, But it's you know, back to the
• 7:46
  Speaker 1: thing about the music. If the focus is on the music,
• 7:50
  Speaker 1: you can keep a band together. Once you become a
• 7:53
  Speaker 1: pretend activist like Springsteen, you know, you're now focused on
• 7:57
  Speaker 1: things besides the music, and that definitely changes the dynamic
• 8:01
  Speaker 1: within a band. And so you know he's doing that, Bruce,
• 8:05
  Speaker 1: because there's relevance to be had from protesting, and he
• 8:08
  Speaker 1: clearly misses being in like the eye of that storm
• 8:12
  Speaker 1: and wants to fancy himself some kind of folk hero.
• 8:15
  Speaker 1: But you know this, like protest songs are a young
• 8:17
  Speaker 1: man's game, Like Bob Dillman was writing the greatest protest
• 8:19
  Speaker 1: songs of all time sixty years ago. Yes, that's like
• 8:25
  Speaker 1: that's the Bruce Springsteen thing is. It's frustrating to watch
• 8:30
  Speaker 1: because obviously he has a massive catalog, he sells a
• 8:33
  Speaker 1: gazillion ticket but you're losing the spirit of the thing.
• 8:37
  Speaker 1: So I wish Bruce would stop standing up.
• 8:40
  Speaker 4: For people who weren't born in the USA.
• 8:43
  Speaker 3: Very good point. Hey, Jimmy Taylor, is this shantytown on
• 8:48
  Speaker 3: the west side, twelve blocks long? This it looks like
• 8:51
  Speaker 3: Los Angeles started to look How bad is this? Is
• 8:54
  Speaker 3: may or Mount Donnie going to ever clean it up?
• 8:58
  Speaker 4: No?
• 9:00
  Speaker 1: In short, no, And that's actually the bad news because
• 9:04
  Speaker 1: winter is going to come eventually, and you're gonna have
• 9:07
  Speaker 1: last year. You know, Mom, Donnie killed so many people
• 9:09
  Speaker 1: last year during the blizzard that Disney did a remake
• 9:12
  Speaker 1: of Frozen, you.
• 9:13
  Speaker 4: Know, not good.
• 9:15
  Speaker 2: And that's the thing, like right now.
• 9:17
  Speaker 1: You kind of tolerated like they tolerated in LA because
• 9:20
  Speaker 1: it's warm out all year and because you know, in
• 9:23
  Speaker 1: a lot of ways that city has let itself go
• 9:25
  Speaker 1: under one party rule. What's amazing is Mom Donnie is
• 9:28
  Speaker 1: accomplishing things in New York that it took California like
• 9:32
  Speaker 1: fifty years to accomplish.
• 9:33
  Speaker 4: That is the scary part.
• 9:35
  Speaker 1: Like California always had a lot of homeless. They didn't
• 9:38
  Speaker 1: become ten cities till about ten years ago.
• 9:40
  Speaker 4: Mom Donnie's like nine.
• 9:42
  Speaker 1: Months into this thing, not even he's like six months in.
• 9:45
  Speaker 1: This is crazy. We're going to have a train to
• 9:47
  Speaker 1: nowhere by this time next year.
• 9:52
  Speaker 3: Hey, Jimmy fails every weeknight nine to midnight, nine to midnight.
• 9:55
  Speaker 3: Although tonight the President makes that speech about nine o'clock,
• 9:58
  Speaker 3: so you'll come on after that and then what do
• 10:00
  Speaker 3: you have on the show tonight?
• 10:02
  Speaker 1: Oh, buckle up man, because of what they say, because
• 10:06
  Speaker 1: of the speech, you know, there's talk that it's going
• 10:08
  Speaker 1: to be about Georgia and the twenty twenty election. So
• 10:11
  Speaker 1: they're giving me like the whole Fox political team, which
• 10:14
  Speaker 1: they never really do because my show isn't like super serious,
• 10:17
  Speaker 1: Like I make a lot of you don't cover serious stuff,
• 10:19
  Speaker 1: but it's kind of a loose show.
• 10:21
  Speaker 4: But I think.
• 10:21
  Speaker 1: Everybody who's doing primetime TV is available for us.
• 10:25
  Speaker 2: So like in and out of break.
• 10:27
  Speaker 1: So this is the closest I'll come to working on
• 10:29
  Speaker 1: election night because they don't want me anywhere near the TV.
• 10:32
  Speaker 2: On a serious night like that.
• 10:33
  Speaker 4: But I'll be there tonight, So get ready.
• 10:35
  Speaker 3: All right, So listen tonight we'll have the present speech
• 10:37
  Speaker 3: and then Jimmy Fayler right after that. Oh and he
• 10:40
  Speaker 3: does the best late night show in television Saturday nights
