[ laughter ] >> jimmy: yeah, you do look like -- >> and that's my bar mitzvah suit. >> jimmy: i was going to say. that's a nice suit. you look sharp. >> yeah, yeah, yeah. actually, i showed up on the red carpet with no tie. and tom brady was coming down the carpet and he went, "where's your tie?" and i was too embarrassed to tell him i didn't know how to put one on. so i pulled it out of my pocket, and tom brady was like, "come here, man." and so, like -- [ audience aws ] yeah. and so i have such love for tom brady. [ applause ] >> jimmy: tom brady tied your tie? >> tom brady tied my tie. like, i remember someone taking a picture and i'm, "i need to find this picture of tom brady putting my tie on." because even when he left boston, we were like, "i hate tom brady." i was like, "well, he knows how to put on a tie."
12:09 am
[ laughter ] >> jimmy: so you love tom brady? >> i worship tom. i'm -- an incredible winner. an incredible guy. like, i'm such a -- there's a a joke about him in my special. i love tom brady so much. but yeah. [ laughter ] >> jimmy: i'm happy that you interviewed me for this thing. was the interview okay? did it turn out all right? >> yeah, it was pretty good. it was for the red sox kid's nation newsletter. [ cheers and applause ] yeah. >> jimmy: of course. >> really serious bit of journalism. but also actually, i violated journalistic principle. because one of the producers of the film noticed i had my mom's "entertainment weekly" with you guys and johnny damon on the cover. and he's like, "would you like me to get jimmy and drew to sign that for you?" and i was like, "oh, yes, please." and he never gave it back to me. and so when i was on drew barrymore's show last year, i told her that. and she gave me a signed copy of the magazine. [ audience aws ] so, now, i mean, i feel like i should ask you to finish the job, if that's okay.
12:10 am

[ audience aws ] that was the best wig you could buy at the time. >> you look the same here, which is -- >> jimmy: no, i do not. [ laughter ] but i want to talk to you about your hbo special. this is unbelievable. congratulations on this. it's coming out this saturday. [ cheers and applause ] "alex edelman: just for us." i'm going to read a couple of reviews really quickly. "the new york times" called the show a "phenomenon." "variety" said, "it was hilarious and irresistible." "the washington post" said, get ready for this one, "'just for us' has been chiseled to diamond cut perfection.
12:11 am
it's a joyous, uproarious, 90 minute show from one of the funniest minds of this generation, or any generation." [ cheers and applause ] what? >> i can say that that's -- i mean, that's not true. [ laughter ] it's really nice for mark twain. [ laughter ] like mike birbiglia, who is a a great comedian, a close friend of yours, he's been on the show a bunch. birbiglia saw that quote, and for two months, every time he saw me, he would be like, "hey, cicero, wanna come over?" [ laughter ] but yeah, it's been really sweet and has had such a a gorgeous reception. i can't believe how well it's gone. >> jimmy: but it started at like a tiny theater here right in the city. >> it started at a theater. we had like maybe 25, 30 people at the first show, and then it kind of went up, and up, and up. >> jimmy: do you remember like a tipping point where it blew up? >> sarah jessica parker put it on her instagram. [ cheers and applause ] >> jimmy: did she really? >> yeah.
12:12 am
sjp put it on her instagram and then no could get a ticket. it was like the craziest thing in the world. >> jimmy: wow, and what a great ride, and it's such a great special. how do we describe the special for anyone that's going in and watching this? >> all right, so i saw this tweet on the internet. i had some anti-semitism pointed at me because -- i'm jewish. maybe sometimes people can tell that i'm jewish, because of my name or my face, or anything about me. [ laughter ] >> jimmy: yeah. >> so someone tweeted something anti-semitic, and i sort of followed the tweets down the rabbit hole a little bit. and i wound up at this meeting of white nationalists in queens. and so i sat there for a little while. and so like yeah, everything sort of unfolds from there a a little bit. >> jimmy: oh, my gosh. i can't believe this. i want to show everyone a clip. here's a peek at "alex edelman: just for us." take a look at this. >> because running through this meeting is this thick vein of anti-semitism. but i've never seen this kind of anti-semitism before. it's almost exhilarating. it's like thick, technicolor, weapons-grade, conspiracy theory level anti -- like, at some point, this guy two seats away from me, he just went, "jews are sneaky and they're
