[ cheers and applause ] >> jimmy: welcome. welcome. thank you for watching.

the fact that we'll all probably die alone -- i appreciate it. we have some good stuff planned for you tonight. kevin nealon, michael b. jordan, the b does not stand for basketball. and todd rundgren, he has a new album and a new shirt, also, it seems like. well, thank you for coming. it is great to have you here. you know, there is some big news in the world of daytime television today. this morning, elizabeth hasselbeck announced effectively she is leaving "the view." she signed with the houston rockets. actually, she is leaving to join the show "fox and friends." she talked about her exit, maybe in contrast to the talk that the hosts don't get along. she shared an emotional good-bye. >> i think the person to sit in

this chair, i will not be the last person to sit in this chair, the past ten years have been nothing. >> and so we'll be right back of course, with hot topics. >> jimmy: you know what? maybe it wasn't emotional but she did say good-bye to the women on the view. she has been there for ten years now, she was a contestant on survivor, and abc hired her from that. she ate a grub bug. she has been on thousands of shows, and tonight we look at some of her finest moments as we say good-bye to our colleague and our tv friend, liz. >> i asked you a question. >> you asked me a question. >> you wouldn't even answer your own question. >> wait, wait, wait. >> we're talking about two different things. >> no, no, no, no, no, no, no. >> this is a criminal --

>> be treated -- >> i'm trying to get to the bottom -- >> who need a home, that is a complete bigoted statement to say that -- it is bigoted, no, no. >> thank you. >> jimmy: well, you know -- [ cheers and applause ] >> jimmy: the good news is, on fox news, nobody will disagree with her at all. not only did elizabeth leave "the view," joe behar is leaving, if you want to watch real in-fighting, you're stuck with the housewives. and hollywood boulevard is teaming for visitors to have fun. this game is called "you catch it, you keep it." guillermo is on the roof. hello, guillermo. >> hi, jimmy. >> jimmy: what are you wearing,

a parachute -- here is how the game works, if they catch the item he drops they get to keep it. that is how we got the name. all right, let's go down to my cousin, sal, who is positioned on hollywood boulevard. >> i have this one right here. >> jimmy: hello, what is your name? >> april. >> jimmy: where are you from? >> from farmersville, california, in between bakersville and fresno. >> jimmy: oh, that is the best part of the state. are you ready to catch a fabulous prize? >> i am. >> jimmy: all right, put the helmet on, guillermo is four stories up. hi, guillermo.

>> i'm very high. >> jimmy: now, are you ready? do you have an item? >> i'm ready, i'll get it. >> jimmy: okay, and are we ready on the ground? >> i am. >> jimmy: all right, let's play "you catch it, you keep it." all right, guillermo, you're not -- you're not the one that gets it. you're supposed to -- when did we get that? like an hour ago? all right, so that is -- what flavor is that, guillermo? >> chocolate, vanilla, and that is it. >> jimmy: all right, it looks pink to me, are you sure? >> oh, and strawberry. >> jimmy: and strawberry, you forget the strawberry, huh? >> yeah. >> jimmy: all right, let's make sure the contestant can hear what she is about to catch or attempt to catch. are you ready, guillermo? >> yes, jimmy guillermo okay, are you ready down on the ground? and release the fries. there you go, it is a good toss.

we are going to have to mark that an error. >> thank you. thank you. >> jimmy: all right -- >> hold on, the sprinkles are coming. >> jimmy: no, the sprinkles are not coming, well, it was a nice try but you didn't catch it. we'll come back to you in a minute. cousin sal and guillermo are throwing ice cream on the people. you know we have writers on the show. justin bieber is doing weird things again. tmz shows him in the kitchen of a restaurant in new york peeing into a mop bucket, like a janitor's -- well, here it is. all right -- so -- that is justin talking. and there he is, peeing, too. when you're justin bieber, the world is your toilet. by the way, what i like about

this video his pants are exactly the same as they are pulled down or pulled up. there is no difference. by the way, the weirdest part of the video is this guy right there standing on the stairs. watching him. either a very diligent bodyguard or a very obvious pervert, i'm not sure. all right, keep going. >> you're not going to remember him -- >> what are we? >> we are [ bleep ]. >> jimmy: you know what? canada? it is time to pick him up. we have had enough. [ cheers and applause ] i don't know if it is just justin bieber or our own little king joffrey we have to deal

with here. all right, let's go outside to have our next contestant. >> he is very excited, this guy. >> jimmy: what is your name? >> jonathan. >> jimmy: where are you from? >> clarksville, tennessee. >> jimmy: all right, and what do you do there? >> i'm a walmart associate, sir. >> jimmy: okay, have you played any baseball? >> no, sir. >> jimmy: you have not? all right, well, strap on the face mask, we want to make sure you're protected and we're going to go back up on the roof. guiller guillermo? >> yes, jimmy. >> jimmy: now what is that? >> it is a beach ball. >> jimmy: why is it flat? >> oh, because it has money. it has a 100 dollars inside. >> jimmy: oh, but why is it flat? >> oh, i don't know. >> jimmy: okay, blow that thing up a little bit, will you? >> oh, blow it? >> jimmy: yeah, you know how they do. no worse ball for the beach than

one of these, ironically, all right, okay, we were going to fill it with quarters but it killed somebody at rehearsal today. okay, are you ready down on the ground? >> yes, sir, we're ready, yes, sir. >> jimmy: all right, jonathan, are you ready? >> yes, sir. >> jimmy: all right, here we go, two, three, one and drop it. wow, that came down quickly. that is a shame. let's look at the instant replay here, oh, wow. all right, well, we're still looking for a winner. thank you, jonathan. here is a weird story, this guy, a scientist, eugene mccarthy, one of the world's leading scientists, he said he believes that the human species was probably created when pigs mated with chimps. and that is how we got jersey shore. i know, we've seen intense

similarities in the dna of chimps and pigs. and in his opinion, there is a good chance, a probability that adam and eve may have been a pig and a chimp. it turns out george was even more curious than we thought. and inter-species can mate, a lion and a tiger mate, it is called a liger, and a pig and a chimp would make pimps, i guess. it makes you think of all the accomplishments from humanity, all of that may have happened because one night a pig and a chimp got a little drunk and went for it. scientists say they believe this union would have paired a male boar, which if you can imagine that, and the off spring, with the chimp mother. today he held a conference to explain it in laymen's terms as

best as he could. >> the male direction of the cross was likely with the female chimp. >> can you explain in detail the actually hiberization event? >> of course this is pure speculation, i think it is likely that the male chimp was like, i have been watching you for sometime and i think you are something with your hairy thumb. and the chimp was like, i love the way you run around in your own feces. why don't we tell our own family? they don't need to know. this is so wrong but so right. where are you going? you're going to miss where the baby pig comes out. >> jimmy: turns out men really are pigs, there is scientific evidence. we'll be right back, we'll have

more drops off the roof. but kevin nealon, michael b. jordan, and todd rundgren is here. ♪ ♪ ♪ [ cheers and applause ] and not another soul in sight ♪ only you, only you ♪ ♪ so we walked.

saw it was a very bad neighborhood, but i tracked it. apparently he got caught texting, and he had to go to driving school. >> jimmy: remarkable, were you able to apprehend him? >> this is the b & b, a little charming b & b -- >> jimmy: just a "b" maybe, the family really goes all out with accommodations. >> okay, this is another sign, warning, please look under your vehicle for penguins. if you go to cape town, there is a lot of penguins, there is a lot of road kill in the parking lot? >> jimmy: there is? >> yeah, these signs should be everywhere, because even in l.a. they used to get under the car. >> jimmy: and now they're all gone, because we didn't have the signs. i don't believe there are penguins, i think it is just a

[ female announcer ] abilify is not for everyone. call your doctor if your depression worsens or you have unusual changes in behavior, or thoughts of suicide. antidepressants can increase these in children, teens and young adults. elderly dementia patients taking abilify have an increased risk of death or stroke.

call your doctor if you have high fever, stiff muscles and confusion to address a possible life-threatening condition. or if you have uncontrollable muscle movements, as these could become permanent. high blood sugar has been reported with abilify and medicines like it and in extreme cases can lead to coma or death. other risks include increased cholesterol, weight gain, decreases in white blood cells, which can be serious, dizziness on standing, seizures, trouble swallowing, and impaired judgment or motor skills. [ sally ] since adding abilify, i feel better. abilify and my antidepressant make a pretty good team. [ female announcer ] ask your doctor about a free trial of abilify and go to addabilify.com.

going on tour with dana carvey. >> that is right, i think it was about a 30 city tour, and then we decided to go back and do a couple of dates this summer. >> jimmy: is this the first time you performed since then? >> yes. >> jimmy: how will it differ from the first time -- >> that is a good question, jimmy, you well, you know from the first tour we had a lot of perks. like i remember we worked in denver, colorado, once, and john travolta came, because we had a mutual friend. and he offered us all a ride back on his jet to l.a. and dana and dennis were not good fliers, they wanted to go on a commercial airline. and i thought hey, man, you don't turn down the opportunity to get on a jet with john, and he is flying the jet, he is a pilot. and we get over the rockies. and all of a sudden the plane is

about how ma -- bumping all over the place, and i'm thinking what have i done? and the cockpit door opens, i see john up there flying, and i am thinking, what am i doing, vince barbarino is up there. and then later he comes back, and says sorry about the bad air -- >> jimmy: i don't believe that dennis and dana didn't want to be flown by john travolta, and i don't blame them, not that i would turn a ride down by john -- >> i would rather fly with him than -- >> jimmy: than who? >> than you. >> jimmy: well, that is a good decision. >> well, he was a pilot. >> jimmy: so will you be doing any new material? >> no, it is all the same from 1987. i golfed once with the managers

back from journey, i said are these guys writing new songs? he said we don't encourage it. todd, am i right? >> are you ever wrong? >> jimmy: when you started out, were you confident? were you nervous? >> well, you know, you're always nervous at first. then you become confident. i was so confident i remember bringing a heckler to my own show. what happened, i worked in dallas, my roommate calls and says can she come to your show? so i drive by, pick her up, she was very nice, i drove her to the club. she goes in, the opening act is going on, she is drinking and drinking and drinking, by the time i get on she is totally hammered. and she is heckling me. just a drunk heckler, you know, distracting everybody. and then i get off the stage, and i'm in the lobby talking to

a friend. and the manager comes in and says you got to take your friend out, she is passed out on the table. i didn't evençó know her, she w heckling me all night. i had to put her in the car, drive her back to the car, bring her into the house and put her on the couch. and i was going to leave, and i thought what if she throws up and drowns in her puke? so i had to sit there until her roommate came home and just watch her. the person who heckled me and ruined my whole night. >> jimmy: the heart of a comedian, the heart of gold. >> you're absolutely correct, jimmy. >> jimmy: kevin nealon has a dvd -- looks like a cd to me. >> it is actually an lp. >> jimmy: there it is, it is called "whelmed, but not overly." you can see kevin at the funny bone in virginia beach, virginia. thanks to you, and we'll be right back with michael b. jordan. not the basketball player, he is a different guy.

hair, not realizing by the first segment my scalp was going to be completely raw. so i stopped brushing my hair half way during the first segment, and i remember during the break he said i asked you to do something, michael. i said i know. he said what did i ask you to do? i said brush my hair, he was like what didn't you do? i stopped brushing my hair, so literally, i was brushing my hair furiously -- >> jimmy: if you had just rubbed jello on it, it would have been fine. you guys missed an opportunity. this movie of yours is great, apparently, i have not seen it. but you won the grand jury award at sun dance, wow! not just the regular jury, the grand jury. >> i got both of them. >> jimmy: and sometimes you could get an oscar nomination out of something like that. >> that has happened before. you trying to jinx me on tv?

>> jimmy: i tell you what, if you do, should happen to win you should just stroll out there brushing your hair the whole time. or brush oscar's bald head. it is a serious movie. it is a real story. >> yeah, it is about this kid named oscar grant. he was fatally murdered in oakland by the bart transit police, face down, shot in the back. they caught it on the cell phone footage. and it hit the internet and youtube and kind of blew up from there. and the cop actually -- he was sentenced to two years for involuntary manslaughter, only ended up serving a month, it took place the last part of his life. we just wanted to give oscar a little bit of humanity back, because when a person loses his life, by an officer, he gets

polarized. i think it is unfair for a person to get judged for a small part of his life. so we really wanted to give a little humanity back. >> jimmy: well, congratulations, thank you, michael b. jordan. we'll be right back. >> the jimmy kimmel live concert series is brought to you by sony. on august first, bud light's 50/50 show, tomorrow night, don't miss the jimmy kimmel live screen, from capital city. go to myspace.com/budlite,
