2:09
up to it I'm a I'm a letterman fan so

Letterman I love David what what I like

3:35
talk show host but it's a guy that

there we are going to throw in our picks
4:05
which is Conan and who is it nominated
4:07
Conan and who Fallon Fallon were
4:09
nominated well we know they were not
4:11
nominated so Conan for me will never be
4:12
the worst list on any talk show host
4:14
that goes what I saying I love Conan
4:15
O'Brian I love him see him on TBS on CTV
4:18
in Canada I love his humor my sons who
4:21
are 19 and 17 even the younger
4:23
generation they they were unsure of him
4:25
at first was they were raised on Kimmel
4:26
type thing but I showed him Conan and
4:28
they too love Conan and O'Brien so I
4:29
just highlights of Clan or Brian or he
4:32
goes to like foreign countries and does
4:34
full shows there he does the ComiCon
4:36
which he does very good at that here are
4:38
the here is the ulist and we're going to
4:39
throw in for good measure Fallon because
4:43
he is high in the ratings so this is the
4:45
critics he is high in the radi he's high
4:47
in the rting so he's he's currently
4:49
doing about two number two or three okay
4:52
why we just go through the list and this
4:53
is full frontal with Samantha B full
4:56
frontal with Samantha B and well let's
4:57
talk about each one as we go through it
4:59
particular order we're just reading uh
5:02
her content I think is overall strong
5:05
sometimes I feel like she swears for
5:06
shock value oh she opposed to well she's
5:10
full I mean she's full frontal just when
5:13
someone's trying very hard it shows okay
5:16
what shows like we're not trying very
5:18
hard no you and I don't try very hard
5:21
and it shows show it shows that's cor
5:24
O'Brien type humor right Kimmel I love
5:26
Jimmy Kimmel obviously he is the he's
5:29
the nicest guy
5:30
yeah I love him uh he's a great guy I
5:32
love him I think part when I had I don't
5:34
watch him as much as I used to time it's
5:36
all it is time like I'll see a lot of
5:38
his I have him on Facebook so I see his
5:39
like highlight clips and things like
5:42
that so I'm still watching him but just
5:43
might not be through conventional means
5:45
on the TV anymore but I definitely I
5:47
watched him for the very beginning of
5:49
his show because I used to watch on The
5:50
Man Show with Adam Kolla so when I heard
5:51
that he got a late night show at DC Adam
5:53
Cora I I met him my last podcast that's
5:56
awesome this is your Jimmy kimmell
5:57
connection yeah cool you're one degree
6:00
short of meeting Jimmy he met his best
6:01
friend yeah actually uh on another
6:04
episode of the Ruben show Believe It or
6:06
Not that's that's still thing yeah the
6:08
Ruben show we haven't plugged that in a
6:10
while his daughter is uh doing a segment
6:12
oh cool or sh done the segment yeah on
6:14
the rubben show yeah cool check that out
6:17
on the ruis show it's on YouTube Just
6:19
Google the rub terrible it's terrible
6:21
anyways so Cora and his kimel's daughter
6:24
both this connections there cool one
6:27
degree of separation okay moving forward
6:29
we have John Oliver we got lots of time
6:31
here we're we're let's talk more about
6:33
Kim I just want to say my goodness
6:35
please Kimel uh he's in hot water right
6:37
now he seems to be getting a lot of flak
6:40
from like Fox News and all these it's
6:42
crazy it's crazy what is going on here
6:44
tell me why don't you tell me a little
6:46
bit what has it got to do with the
6:47
medical thing with the son and then yeah
6:49
I guess he said that wouldn't it be nice
6:52
if children didn't have to die because
6:54
they couldn't afford medical care that
6:56
we valued human life and more than money
6:59
so that pretty radical for him to say
7:00
such a thing and then also he the uh
7:03
something to do with the Harvey wi scene
7:04
or issues well we can get to that in a
7:07
moment and then it was the the Vegas
7:08
shooting okay he's from Vegas right he's
7:11
from Vegas and so it hit him his
7:13
hometown of like why do people need
7:16
AK-47s why buying 33 guns within a year
7:20
not raise an alarm
7:22
Bell oh you got everything okay over
7:25
there yeah was making this go so that
7:28
was uh okay so he's in a little bit of
7:30
hot water he he just brought up his
7:32
opinions and so people say I hate you
7:34
because of that oh yeah and then he said
7:36
he doesn't like Trump so then there is
7:38
hatred there so if you don't agree with
7:40
them you don't like them then you don't
7:42
like like and that and that's that's
7:44
fair that's democracy I don't agree with
7:46
everything he say yeah that's what I
7:48
mean but I don't get my panties in a no
7:50
yeah you know what I mean like well why
7:52
he seems to be I've never seen him such
7:54
hot water before he seems to be kind of
7:55
the punching boy for the yeah for the
7:58
conservatives conservatives yeah so um
8:00
and then for the Harvey Weinstein thing
8:02
um he found out on oh his I think his
8:06
Wednesday show whenever day it came out
8:09
so he does four shows a week right they
8:11
record two in one day they record two in
8:12
one day and then there's no jokes
8:14
there's no jokes on the Harvey Weinstein
8:16
because during the recording the big
8:18
breakout news hadn't come out so people
8:20
thought he was ignoring so Trump Jr
8:22
thought um he was he was boring you got
8:25
everything okay over there room it's
8:26
just a phone call I missed the phone
8:28
call must be nice might be Harvey
8:30
Weinstein's lawyers calling us or
8:32
Jimmy's yeah some people thought he was
8:34
whatever yeah is this very weird that
8:37
somebody says something you don't like
8:38
fine but you know you've made it big
8:40
when what you're saying now becomes like
8:43
what's the opinion of Jimmy yeah it
8:45
makes news yeah anyway so that's where
8:48
he's in hot water he's a nice individual
8:50
I think so I don't think he's a jerk and
8:52
they showed some uh video of him on the
8:55
man show uhuh playing what's in my pants
8:58
a segment with a paid person oh who they
9:01
were just people on the street randomly
9:02
no no he didn't go after and target
9:05
people oh try to use his power to yes
9:08
they were all adults yeah and they were
9:11
paid and they were consenting adults
9:12
they agreed to the yeah it's a gimmick I
9:16
like how they try to throw the same
9:17
light of Harvey wine scene I know I know
9:19
I know the creepiness of this goof let
9:21
me just say this guy is a creep when
9:23
your base isn't that bright then that's
9:25
what you do when I say when I say that
9:27
bright doesn't mean that they're dumb it
9:28
just means they haven't look into it
9:30
right does that make sense we're
9:31
defending Jimmy Kimmel right now leave
9:34
him alone free Kimmel free Kimmel free
9:36
Kimmel free the Kimmel free free the
9:39
Kimmel come on that was funny John
9:40
Oliver the next one John Oliver on HBO
9:43
uh last week with tonight Last Week
9:45
Tonight with John Oliver was he on was
9:47
he on the Joe John coar show he was yeah
9:51
okay moving forward yeah Real Time with
9:53
Bill Maher Bill Maher he's kind of like
9:55
the he's an old guard I've watched he's
9:58
a what the old guard oh wow yeah he's
10:01
been around for a while he did political
10:02
incorrectness for a while there I think
10:04
it was NBC then it became too
10:06
politically incorrect and he moved HBO
10:08
he's he's one of those characters for me
10:10
because I've seen many of his episodes
10:12
and where there's times where I really
10:13
like how he sounds and how he thinks and
10:15
there's times where I don't like how he
10:17
sounds how he thinks but that's I guess
10:19
part of Being Human yeah but I I find
10:21
his guests and his round tables engaging
10:23
so it's it's not really um so I'm not a
10:25
big fan of his standup or his
10:27
opening stick at the beginning I don't w
10:30
i but when I do watch him I do like his
10:32
guests his Round Table discussions and
10:34
he's I say brave enough but he will
10:36
bring people on who oppose him yeah and
10:38
he's not afraid to have the discussion
10:40
he's had his own crowd boo him I respect
10:43
his bravery in the ring he puts himself
10:45
in the ring States his opinion and it's
10:48
not that uninformed he's actually pretty
10:50
informed yeah he goes toeo Toe with some
10:51
pretty smart thinking people so he as
10:53
far as an interviewer goes he's pretty
10:55
good at that somebody maybe like Fallon
10:58
might not be able to really go
11:00
toe-to-toe with anyone who can think
11:01
well Fallon did say recently that he's
11:03
not interested in politics just pop
11:05
culture fair enough okay he got a pop
11:07
culture show you know what I mean I like
11:10
to call spade a spade of it is yeah sure
11:13
he's he's that's fine absolutely all
11:15
right so we got James cordin James
11:17
Cordon see I couldn't even remember I
11:18
knew was he's the carpel karaoke
11:21
gentleman from England okay now we're
11:24
I'm I'm gonna start uh revealing a
11:25
little bit of my pick but it might not
11:27
be my pick I've got a couple on my head
11:28
right now
11:29
so for the worst James Cordon I'm not
11:32
bought on at all bless his heart for
11:34
being lucky oh yeah yeah let me just say
11:36
this guy I feel like he just fell off
11:38
the British truck into American
11:40
television and all of a sudden we're
11:41
supposed to like this guy and it's like
11:43
who are who are you and he's on late
11:45
night well Craig Ferguson kind of paved
11:48
the way I think they're I think they're
11:50
literally like who's another guy with an
11:52
accent that we can bring over yeah
11:53
Ferguson was Scottish or Irish I believe
11:56
Scottish yeah who's got who has another
11:58
accent that's not American that's funny
12:00
and adorable and likable Craig Ferguson
12:02
by the way was one of the best
12:03
interviewers he was good good at his job
12:05
too uh much like Seth Myers he did not
12:08
need a
12:10
card he can just do it off top of his
12:12
head no no C Noone have q cards no but
12:16
that was the thing but a lot of people
12:17
didn't like to come on a show because he
12:19
would stray from the uh that's true he
12:21
stray from the card that's true they
12:23
always say oh that wasn't on the nope
12:25
one the things I love about lman yeah so
12:27
Cordon let me just say cord I'm going to
12:28
give you my right now about him might
12:30
not be my pick for the worst I don't I
12:32
feel like his whole show is designed to
12:34
be viral yeah you know what I mean like
12:36
well nobody's watching TV I maybe okay
12:39
that's just old kunder Ryan missing the
12:42
old days of just people coming in
12:43
plugging the show there comedy bits and
12:45
you move on to the next one not this
12:47
rotating
12:48
viral you know but he does like the Tom
12:51
Hanks movies and two minutes and they're
12:53
all running through it's like and then
12:56
the the carpo car okay the car carpo
12:59
Koke this is the biggest the cardpool
13:01
karaoke drives at the wall because we're
13:03
supposed to believe we're supposed to
13:05
believe that James Cordon name cordin
13:08
knows every Britney Spear song off by
13:10
heart he's a 30-some year old guy and
13:13
he's singing away the Britney Spear
13:15
songs it's just digging it you know like
13:17
they could just throw any Britney Spear
13:19
song in he's kind of a decent singer so
13:21
you can kind of pull away throwing these
13:23
songs out loud like you're not a Britney
13:25
Spears fan here's a little trivia for
13:26
you carpool karaoke saved some
13:29
somebody's life when the Red Hot Chili
13:30
Peppers were doing it they went out of
13:32
the car for a break or whatever cuz it's
13:34
like a 4our shoot oh I think I heard
13:36
about this yeah this woman comes over
13:38
her house with her baby choking oh yeah
13:41
and I think he just knew what to do and
13:43
saved the baby's life until the
13:44
paramedics came that's good that they
13:46
didn't just give it
13:47
away that's terrible that's
13:51
terrible I don't know like under the
13:54
bridge or something I KN I knew that was
13:56
the next
13:57
thing yeah
14:00
okay okay all right so it was that's by
14:03
Jimmy Cordon I know we're on the last
14:04
five minutes okay so and then we have
14:06
well that was for the Emy picks these
14:08
are the Emy picks well we've got Steven
14:09
coar who replaced Letterman oh yeah coar
14:12
yeah so he did the what was his show
14:14
that he did all the time the big one
14:15
that I think it's called Steven coar
14:19
show but he played a character St yeah
14:22
that's what so confusing is he played no
14:24
he played a conservative character right
14:26
he overplayed the conservative the
14:28
character
14:29
of a conservative kind of by being that
14:32
character he could say things that yeah
14:35
you know that stepen coar couldn't say
14:37
but this character could be I'll tell
14:40
you what I don't like about coar yeah
14:42
please do Bill Maher John Oliver first
14:45
of all John all over and saman the be um
14:47
first of all I can't repeat that well
14:51
