year on the show. >> uh-huh, right. (laughter). >> stephen: and so we'll see new 2020 martin scorsese. start planning it now. (cheers and applause). >> stephen: thank you. >> i'll put it down. >> stephen: now it just so happens that leap day always comes during a presidential election year. because the campaign just doesn't feel long enough without it! (laughter) and we've still got a lot way to go in this campaign. which means it's time for the road to the white house. (cheers and applause) >> and i promise i will never be in a bicycle race, that i can tell you. >> of course, those of you checking your calender know tomorrow is supertuesday which is 13 primaries. and it could decide the election. so for republicans tonight is sphincter clenching monday. (laughter)

to say this, if the polls are right, tomorrow donald trump could secure the republican nomination. but-- that's how i show happiness too. (laughter). >> stephen: whooo! but trump could have a problem. you see, this time it's not about something he said. it's about something he didn't say. >> will you unequivocally condemn david duke and say you don't want his vote or that of other white supremacists in this selection? >> i know nothing about david duke. i know nothing about white supremacists. and so you are asking me a question that i'm supposed to be talking about people that i know nothing about. >> i'm just talking about david duke and the ku klux klan here but. >> honestly, i don't know david duke. >> stephen: yeah, trump needs to know before condemning david duke or the kkk. it's not like they've muslim or born in mexico. he needs to think about it now i recently gave some advice to

not give a straight answer about whether she had ever lied to the american people. i said that that was the easiest question to answer in politics. well, i would like to apologize. i was wrong. this is the easiest question to answer in american politics. (cheers and applause) >> when someone asks you will you disavow the ku klux klan, just say yes and start high-fiving your future cabinet. i can understand why you would want to wait for the end of the sentence. if sun says will you disavow the koo-- they could be about to say koo koo for cocoa puffs or koo koo ka choo and you don't want to anger cereal lovers or beatles fans but once they say ku klux, you know what is coming next. it's not going to be ku klux crispies or ku klux crunchwrap. of course, clump had an answer

florida with a very bad earpiece that they gave me. and could you hardly hear what he was saying. but what i heard was various groups, i have a lousy earpiece that is provided by them. >> stephen: yes, he blames this one on the earpiece, though i think he should take some responsibility for the mouth piece. also, maybe the hair piece. (cheers and applause) you know, speaking of racial tensions, the oscars. (laughter) i was up late last night watching the whole show, which went pases 11:30, i don't know how anybody watches tv that late. it's crazy. (laughter) the good news, i won my offices carpool! (cheers and applause). >> stephen: because, because i'm filling it out right now, okay. "spoltlight" no one else had that one. i also had a good feel being mark mangini for best sound editing.

for best host. now i want to congratulate all of last night's winners, especially leo. i call him-- (cheers and applause). >> stephen: i agree. you did it, leo! and i call him leo because i saw him on tv last night. see you this weekend, buddy. i'm going to watch "the beach." (laughter) this has been a long time coming for leo. he was first nominated for what's eating gilbert grape and 22 years later he finally won for getting eaten. i mean really earned this one. to get his oscar leo was mauled by a bear, buried alive, slept inside a dead horse, that erode off of a cliff. if he didn't win for that, his next movie was going to be about a man swallowed by a snake, run over by a truck but escaped to fist fight the nazi moose who abducted his wife. so again, congrat, will-- leo.

and get fat. seriously, i think i speak for millions of men who would love to see you get fat. (laughter) now i am sure other people won too but i did not watch the entire ceremony. i like to flip around during award shows. you know during the super bowl half time they have animal planet with the puppy bowl? well, at the oscar half time i went to switch over to the poppy oscars which we had to make ourselves because they don't exist. (laughter) and this year the puppy oscars were absolutely magical. let's take a look at the action on the red carpet. a lot-- a lot of daring outfits this night. hollywood does like them young. hard for a dog to find work after they turn four. a bit of a run-in with the press. someone didn't like ryan seacrest's questions. the trouble with high heels, even though they are dogsk things got a little katy out there. of course the moment everyone was waiting for was who would

the crowd was on the edge of their seats. would it be matt damon for the martian, tom hardy for mad max, a long shot since he was not nominated. orally nardo dicaprio for "the revenant." and in the puppy oscars t went to matt damon. huge upset. (cheers and applause) there's matt's beautiful wife applauding. i don't-- i don't know why matt damon is dressed like a pilgrim but he still looked fabulous, none the less and there was in the a dry eye in the house, of course, when they presented the lifetime achievement award to dexter, a 15 year old toothless pug. and there is matt damon's lovely wife, sharing the joy again. my congratulations to the winners. you're all good dogs. and all the purposees in this individual-- puppies in this video are available for adoption. go get them.

(applause) >> thank you for playing. that was-- thanks very much. >> stephen: let's do it every four years. >> okay. >> stephen: are you available? we shot this last friday. it was cold. >> it was cold. >> stephen: so it was not hard for me to act miserable. >> good, good, you used that well. >> stephen: every time i shoot outside with like a real direct we are like a single camera, that kind of thing, i'm so happy that i work indoors and know where i am going every day. >> right. >> stephen: some place where there is heating, and fresh water. >> right. although the man who is there to make you safe, we shot in the middle. we did that one shot in the middle of the street. >> stephen: exactly. you said why don't you walk out in the mid will of the street between rounds of traffic. >> yeah. and you almost got run down by a school bus and the man who was there for your safety was not very happy about that.

security is specifically asked not to have me run over by school buses. >> yeah. (laughter). >> stephen: well, congratulations on viceland. >> thank you. >> stephen: now i know what vice is, what is viceland, what is the whole network going to be? and it just launched today, right? >> yeah, it launched today. it's basically our-- us-- like what-- chain is doing it the journalism and objective and what we are doing is more subjective. we wanted it to feel like a channel made by people about things we're interested in. it's almost like a whole tv channel that is personal. and so the shows are made by the people who came up with the ideas, ellen paige. >> stephen: she's got gaycation is the name of her show. >> yeah. >> stephen: about what it is like to be a gay person in various countries around the world or various cultures an societies around the world. >> yeah, or thomas morton, he

he has a show called balzik. and he goes with different cultures, a preparer in the south or the gay bear scene in provincetown, he lives with them. >> stephen: runs the gama of americana. >> he does. >> stephen: and just finds out what that life is like? >> yeah. >> stephen: is this all without judgement? >> i think so. that is our intention, yeah. >> stephen: i would say that the impression that i get from the time that i have spent with you and watching your work is you have an-- a really finely tuned emotional radar. and like people of all kinds. why do you like so many different kinds of people? because-- i'm not saying that people don't deserve to be loved, but we're in a very divided country. what is it about people that you like? cuz some people don't like people. >> u m, i guess i'm just curious. and i am i feel like that is

this show is made with heart. and no matter what jokes are you making it, underneath it is a thread of heart that is through it all, that just comes from you. >> stephen: i would hope so. (cheers and applause) >> yeah and i feel like you know, the same thing with the channel. this channel is made by all these young creative people. >> stephen: and they're very young. i mean mostly, when we went and shot, even the people shooting with us on that day, all of them could have been my children. you are the old man now. >> i am, yeah. >> stephen: just 40. >> 6. >> stephen: four years away from aarp. >> is that true. >> stephen: you can join aarp in four years, you get discounts on magazines. you can get discount to go see your own movie. >> i didn't know. >> stephen: absolutely, yeah tony hawk hit it like four years ago. >> wow. >> stephen: so are you, like are you a tv exec now, what is your title now? >> my tv executive tight sell copresident of the channel,

>> stephen: se good. >> pretty ridiculous. but i think the hope is that the sooner we can sort of build this thing to give over to the younger creative minds, the better. and that things should have-- this thing should be creative anarchy. it should be, you know, like this organism that 24 hour cable chan theal can be anything. we want to play with it and not be precious about this. >> stephen: what would be the threw-line of it. is there a threw--- thru line for a spike jonze project. you have done so many different things, like i said, being john malkovich or her, but also jackass, there say real range of things you helped create. what is the commonality between those things? >> i don't know other than just things that i make-- ideas i'm excited about that i make with people that i want to be around. and-- . >> stephen: do you ever feel like you are getting yourself in trouble when you say yes to

say yes to this? >> yeah, yeah, definitely, this channel wasn't easy. it seemed like a really fun idea. and then as we got into it, i think i started out as a creative director of the channel. because i have been with the company for ten years. oh, i've been pushing to do this channel because i liked the idea of having this place where we could make anything. and it started out as creative director and realized that six months into it, it was a lot of organization and a lot of communication and e-mails and that kind of stuff. actually to make the creative idea get-- to execute the creative idea. and so that's when i realized i wasn't sure why i got myself into it. >> stephen: is there a corner office or anything like that. are you living the executive lifestyle? >> no, me and my friend eddie, we share an office. >> stephen: oh, man. >> it's nice. we got our names on the door. it is pretty slick. >> stephen: you will be a tv

tv exexec could i suggest a slight name chance. >> yes. >> stephen: spike doesn't seem like a tv e ex, peers, peers jones jonze, the next phase of the spike. >> yeah, i will change it on the door, okay, sounds good. >> stephen: we have to take a little break. do you have commercials? >> yeah. >> stephen: okay, we have commercials here too. i didn't know how hip the channel was. >> we're not that hip. >> stephen: we'll be right back with more spoke jonze, stick around.er see what delta can do. bring it. how did you do that you didn't even move your hand?!

(cheers and applause) you were just saying. >> i was just happy they were here. i was just commenting that shall-- .

worked for you. (laughter) cuz they really do look like somebody who just came along and said we have a show about me, my wife and my beard travel around the united states. (laughter) >> i want to ask you about this right here. you put an ad in the new york tiemsz t says viceland and had a number down here. and what was the purpose of this ad? >> that was to just check in on everyone, see how they are feeling. that's it. now people called in, this is before the show took off. >> yeah. >> stephen: before the network was launched. >> yeah. >> stephen: and people called in. >> we tweeted out the number and just asked random questions, how are you doing. and what's wrong. and what is going on in your relationship. >> stephen: with no explanation. >> no explanation, and just a phone number. and a lot of people called. we ended up having hours and hours. so the first 13 hours of our channel today is these voice mails just us listening to these voice mails for 13 hours. >> stephen: i think we have a

>> sometimes i get worried that technology is expanding and will go faster than the human condition can handle and that will be our demise. >> my name is jessie. i'm a 30 something year old woman. i have never seen "star wars." i've never seen goonies. i've never seen silence of the lambs am but i have seen every-- movie. basically i'm lost in this life. i have not ever seen lord of the rings. i don't even know what the deal is with that. (laughter). >> stephen: why did you want these people to call you? >> we really just wanted to know what they were thinking. and check in with them. and here what they had to say. then when we got them they were so compelling, these messages, just like these very intimate phone calls from people's bedrooms. and unedited thoughts. and so we ended up just-- we couldn't stop listening to them. so we just thought it with be funny to air them for 13 hours. so that is what we did for the first day. >> stephen: that is a network

schedule right there. >> yeah. (laughter). >> stephen: one thing that you and i share is a love of maury mawr es sendak. you directed where the wild things are. you put out a deumary about your time talking with maurice. an i was lucky enough to spend a day with him. >> i loved that piece. and i loved that piece. the piece did you with him just captured him. because he was like-- people sort of approached him like he was this precious, you know, wizard, children's book author. but as you know, he is this artist, this fiery, ver bose, articulate and foul-mouthed man. and you are like, a lot of people are kind of put off balance but you just-- i could tell you just loved him. >> stephen: what i loved, the very first time i met him, the first time i met him he couldn't answer the phone. he didn't know which button to push. and i could hear him trying to figure out which button to push. he didn't have to push anything. we were already talking.

said i'm sorry, i'm just sorry. i-- i'm 84 and death looms. (laughter) i have two last questions for you, not to be so formal but i have two last questions. these are for jeffrey dean morgan, i better not ask you thoses.

>> stephen: hey, everybody, welcome back. now you guys may have heard last week that facebook unveiled a new invasion. it's the facebook reaction button to let you respond to a post with something other than the old like thumbs up there. now you can also say love, ha ha, wow, sad, and angry. or possibly i just shaved my head and got a sunburn, i'm not entirely sure. it's like mark zuckerberg said, people want to express a wider

although six, not exactly a wide range of emotions. the emojis on my phone let me express so many more like when i'm thoughtful or in the mood for flamenco dancing or if i just feel medium sized boat.
