everybody. it's time to start your weekend! >> whoo! >> cool with that. for >> dicky: from hollywood it's "jimmy kimmel live"! tonight, dave grohl, from fox news, bret baier, this week in unnecessary censorship, and music from courtney barnett. and now, for the most part, here's jimmy kimmel![ cheers an] ♪ >> jimmy: hi, i'm jimmy. i'm the host. thanks for watching, thanks for coming. i'm glad we're here together. i have to say, you know -- there's a lot of division in this country right now. and rightly so. some people are wrong.

but this is something that i think we can all agree on. and that is that it's no fun to go through airport security. it's slow, it's inconvenient, it's a hassle. but that might change because the tsa is using these new scanners that are said to be so effective, we might be able to carry moisturizer in our bags again. wouldn't that be wonderful? [ laughter ] all i need is a tube of cocoa butter and my emotional support monkey and i am happy as a clam. that's the good news. the other news is tsa is also said to be considering an initiative to eliminate security screenings, to eliminate all security at 150 small and medium-sized airports. that sounds like a good -- who came up with that plan, isis? [ laughter ] is the idea to inconvenience the terrorists by making them drive to topeka? cnn's terrorism analyst said it is stunning that this is even being considered. but it is, and according to internal reports, the reason why it's being considered is because it would save $115 million a year.

which i don't know, the lakers paid more than that for lebron james. [ laughter ] that doesn't seem like enough. i don't like going through the line either, but i would also rather not have to rely on the employees at cinnabon to keep their eyes open for suspicious activity. [ laughter ] [ cheers and applause ] meanwhile, our president gave himself a little patdown this afternoon. he tweeted, working hard, thank you, 50% approval rating. [ laughter ] congratulations, only half the it's like a kid who comes home with a report card, look mom, i got an "f!" not only did he have praise for himself today. the president gave thanks to his new buddy, kim jong-un. he wrote, thank you to chairman kim jong-un for keeping your word and starting the process of sending home the remains of our ved miinfaen. amott all surprised that you took this kind act thank you for your nice letter, i look forward to seeing you soon. [ laughter ] he's got a pen pal. [ laughter ] that will come in handy when

he's in prison, that's nice. [ laughter ] [ cheers and applause ] i just want to say for the record, sending human remains in a letter doesn't make you our friend, it makes you a serial killer. [ laughter ] while trump sends love notes to dictator buddies, conclusion-palooza marches on. there are new details whether or not the president will sit for an interview with special counsel robert mueller. team trump and team mueller have been going back and forth, negotiating the parameters of a possible face-to-face. mueller has reportedly offered trump the option now of answering some of the questions in writing. trump's legal team would prefer he answer in the form of cartoon drawings or charades. [ laughter ] but writing is good too. mueller's agreed to reduce the number of questions he initially wanted to ask the president. and also to limit his questions only to when fox news goes to commercial breaks. so when you hear the word "mesothelioma," you've got three minutes. [ laughter ]

rudy giuliani, the president's attorney, said the president's team is reviewing mueller's proposal and he repeated trump is eager to meet with investigators himself but his lawyers don't want him to. this is a story we keep hearing. i don't believe it for one second. he can hide behind, my lawyers don't want me to but i want to. unless he has no other choice, the only way donald trump is sitting down with robert mueller is if mueller hires a person star with a bra full of chicken nuggets to ask the questions. [ cheers and applause ] i'm not buying that. tomorrow -- i don't know if you know this, tomorrow's national watermelon day. and for those enthusiasts who might be with us tonight, we are celebrating tonight by, well, let's go out to our watermelon stand which is manned by our watermelon meister guillermo. [ cheers and applause ] i see you're surrounded by watermelons. just out of curiosity, what is your grab somebody out there who might like some watermelon, somebody on the street.

and we'll meet them and we'll say hello. and hello, what is your name? >> my name is mike. >> jimmy: where are you from? >> minneapolis, minnesota. >> jimmy: wow, some people in the audience are from there. either that or just enthusiastic. >> that's awesome, that's awesome. >> jimmy: what do you do for work? >> hr recruiter. i help people get jobs for our company. >> jimmy: you're the hr guy? [ laughter ] >> one of them, yeah. i'm the good hr guy. >> jimmy: seems like you'd be the one they'd be reporting. [ laughter ] all right, mike. guillermo, get mike a watermelon, will you, for god's sake. he's come all the way -- he's visiting, it's summer, it's very hot outside. that is going to take forever with the plastic knife, guillermo. >> guillermo: wait, hold on, jimmy, let me call my assian ji >> guillermo: courtney, take care of this for me. >> jimmy: what's your assistant's name? >> guillermo: courtney. >> jimmy: sounds like corny. >> am.on us? to break open that >> jimmy: go ahead.

there you go. this is how you do it, mike. you don't need the l plastic knife. [ cheers and applause ] there you go, enjoy your watermelon, mike. >> thank you. >> jimmy: that's courtney olsen. last time i saw something like that is when i became a father for the second time. [ rim shot ] [ laughter ] >> thank you very much for this gift. >> jimmy: when did you discover you had this talent to do this? >> it was a dare. >> jimmy: a dare. >> yeah, when i quit drinking about 8 1/2 years ago. [ laughter ] my favorite hobby was to go into bars and shark drunk men, i dare you to arm wrestle. i made a killing off of it. >> jimmy: then somebody pulled out a watermelon, and the rest is television history. >> yeah, yeah. >> jimmy: we're going to clear the area. >> that is amazing, i can't do that. >> jimmy: thank you, mike, also. enjoy your watermelon. >> thanks, jimmy.

that was awesome, good job. >> jimmy: all right there you go, courtney and mike. here's something for those of you who are fans of television shows from the '80s and '90s. two classic sitcoms could be back on the air soon. they're working on reboots of "frasier" and "alf." [ cheers and applause ] i guess people are excited. i would love to see them combine those shows. [ laughter ] frasier comes home from the radio station, there's alf in the house driving him nuts. if you never saw "alf," it's like a furry, cat alien-eating puppet. the remake is in early stages of development. i have a casting idea. i think i know the perfect person to do the voice of the new alf, let me know what you think of this. >> what do you plan to do about the homeless? >> it's the biggest problem, in my opinion, this world has. so we could do something to substantially reduce them, ideally get rid of them, maybe that's a dream. >> i guess you are a good president.

>> i'm one of the smartest people anywhere in the world. it's true. >> i'm glad to see you haven't lost your boyish sense of humor, mr. president. >> grab them by the [ bleep ]. [ cheers and applause ] >> jimmy: that will be its catch phrase. he'll say that everybody will go nuts. they do actually have the same hair. i never realized. [ laughter ] there are a lot of remakes on tv. "will & grace" is a hit for nbc. abc recently brought "roseanne" back, from what i'm told that's going great. [ laughter ] "frasier crane isn't the only tv doctor from the '90s who deserves new life. i have another one in mind i think would be perfect for another run on cbs right now. >> i was a pioneer. the first woman doctor in the colorado territory. but now i found a higher calling. and trails are about to get blazed. back pain, anxiety, and cholera? >> so much cholera. do you have any medicine for

that, dr. quinn? >> the best in the west. >> whoa. >> we have molasses og, ghost town setiva, montana wowie, oregon trail haze, elderberry dream, high noon, calamity mary jane, doc's holiday, cornbread kush, sour gold rush, yellow fever widow, pineapple pony express, wyatt herbal haze, cowboys and indians, cactus thunder, [ bleep ], and finally the mag-spliff-cent seven. >> oh, that's really great. [ bleep ]. >> jane seymour is, "dr. quinn: medicinal marijuana woman." >> my eyes are two different colors. >> followed by an all-new "hash bridges" only on cbs. [ cheers and applause ] >> jimmy: thanks to jane seymour, and apologies to her family.

concert? >> yeah, we did one last year. this is our second year this year. last year we did -- it was foo fighters, queens of stone age, cage the elephant, hee i am gallagher. basically we just had license to call all of our friends and put on a show in front of 30,000 or 40,000 people, which we considered to be like a huge keg party. >> jimmy: yeah, right. >> so we were all friends, all of the bands were friends. so we'd just hang out backstage, have a good time. then someone would say, i'm on in 15 minutes. then they'd run away then come back, and another friend would say, i'm on in 20 minutes. they had run away. it was great. just to have a festival where every band had a guitar. every band jammed for real live. it's based on these legendary concerts that happened in the '70s. >> jimmy: in the '70s here in l.a., right? >> yes, and those lineups were bananas. everyone's sunburned and drinking schlitz in a can and w.

we started calling our friends. this year iggy pop is playing with us, the guys from jesus queens of stone age, garbage, the producer of nirvana, manchester orchestra, silversun pickups, greta van fleet, a bunch of younger bands. >> jimmy: will you really play with each other? >> yeah. >> jimmy: it seems in a lot of festivals it's very regimented. the bands, there's not much cross-over. will there be cross-over between the bands? >> yeah, because most of us are friends. it's one of the great things about bands and musicians, it's like a community of friends. i've made music with most of the people on the bill. so then you get together and there's people there, you just start jumping up on stage with your friends and jamming. >> jimmy: you've played with a lot of great people, obviously. >> yeah. >> jimmy: prince is somebody that you've played with. tell that story.

because this is a good one. >> well, years ago prince did this 21-night stretch at the forum in los angeles. >> jimmy: right. >> and so i'm like, we got to go, this is going to be amazing. so me and like 20 of my friends got a party bus and went down to the forum, so we were hammered when we got there. like before the show. then we went upstairs to the club and someone said, hey, he really wants to meet you. like, okay. then they said, he's going to call you up to jam. and i was way too drunk to get up and jam with prince. no, no, no, no. i don't want to do that. so afterwards we met. and i said, when do you want to jam, man? he said, how about friday? i said, okay. he said, i'll call you. i waited all week with my phone. prince is going to call, prince is going to call. of course he never called. someone said, just go down there. and i got down there to sound check, there was no one there, it was an empty room. and i walked out into the middle of the arena and he sees me and he goes, what are you doing here? and i said, oh, i thought we were going to jam, prince.

[ laughter ] you know. and he goes, you want to jam? i said, sure. do you want to play drums or guitar? i'll play drums. i sat down and we started playing "whole lotta love" by led zeppelin. it was the most amazing experience of my entire life. >> jimmy: wow. >> and there was nobody there. >> jimmy: oh, wow.

thought, it will be kind of like a really freaky mushroom trip if i film it and make it look like there's seven of me in the room together. and so i came up with the idea, and i thought, oh, that's kind of -- that's kind of stupid. then someone said, okay, we booked the studio, we got the camera guy, it's all set up. i thought, now i got to write the music. i wrote this big long thing. as i was doing it, i couldn't help but think about my kids who are musicians and watching them like challenge themselves and really try to push themselves and learn new stuff. so i'm inspired by watching these kids and their friends. they have bands and they play together, they're really trying. and you never lose that as a musician. it's like a lifelong obsession of just like pushing yourself to get to the next level. >> jimmy: it's incredible. when you put it all together. and how many days did it take you to shoot that? >> took a couple of days. it's like three days or something. >> jimmy: of you playing the same thing? >> yeah, the thing was if i started and made a mistake in

the 15th minute, i'd have to start over again. >> jimmy: which instrument was most difficult to lay down? >> piano.ust sitting there like -- it took six hours. and i've got a room full of guys filming it and every time i'd make a mistake -- guys, i'm so sorry, i don't play piano. >> jimmy: it's a lot of pressure. >> the beginning of that is a short film documentary about kids learning to play music. >> jimmy: right. >> and so we're sort of partnering with a bunch of different organizations that are helping kids learn music. a lot of the kids don't have music in school. there are places they can go to learn to play and hook up with other kids and start bands and so this next generation can keep going with playing musician. [ cheers and applause ] >> jmyit's ry grea nbelievay good. to asyour wife is. the night when you were here hosting the show for me, she had her appendix -- >> it's true, i got down here,

they were putting this david letterman thing on me. i got this text, she's like, i don't really feel so good. then i walk offstage after it's done, she's like, i'm on my way to the hospital to get my appendix out. i look at these guys, like get this off my face now! and i ran down there, got there in time. she's great. >> jimmy: she's doing all right? >> she's all right. >> jimmy: very good, very good. thanks for coming. thanks for doing that again. thanks for the head. dave grohl. caljam18 takes place october 5th and 6th in san bernardino.

[ cheers and applause ] ♪ >> thanks for having me. >> jimmy: it's great to have you here.

i want to thank you, because after my son's heart surgery when the fox news community was attacking me, you sent me a very nice e-mail. i know your son had heart surgery as well. how is your son doing, doing well? >> he's doing great. paul -- first of all, i wanted to reach out. i'm a father who went through the same thing. >> jimmy: yes. >> i sat in those hospital rooms listening to beeps. and i wanted to reach out to you and say, there's a light at the end of the tunnel. our son paul went through three open heart surgeries, nine angioplasties. he's doing awesome. [ cheers and applause ] >> jimmy: that's great. >> i know billy's going to be the same. >> jimmy: he's doing great too, yeah. thank you for saying that, i appreciate that. now you were in the news. you are the news but you were in the news as well last week. >> which is not a good thing. >> jimmy: no? i thought it was a good thing and i'll tell you why. this was after the white house excluded a reporter from cnn from a press briefing. was stopped from covering the s president's trade announcement

late this afternoon in the rose garden. cnn has just issued a statement. this decision to bar a member of the press is retaliatory in nature and not indicative of an open and free press. we demand better. as a member of the white house press pool, fox stands firmly with cnn on this issue of access. [ cheers and applause ] >> jimmy: i found it reassuring to see journalists sticking together, even though you're competitors, even though you're not exactly on the same page from a network standpoint. but it did -- i found it to be reassuring. >> it was a no-brainer. you know, i'm on the news side of the house. and you have to stand for access. this is a credentialed person. i wrote a book about reagan. sam donaldson was yelling questions they didn't like in the reagan white house either. but he was never denied access. and to fox news' credit, they stood up right away. it was instantaneous. we put up the chain, it

happened, then i got it on the show with the approval of fox management. so jay wallace put out a statement, our president. and it was a no-brainer. i were standing with cnn. >> jimmy: had anything like that ever happened before? >> yes. >> jimmy: while you were working in the news? >> in fact, at -- when the obama white house in 2009, i'd just taken over for brit hume as anchor, they tried to deny fox news a round robin interview. cnn stood up and jake tapper said, if fox is not doing it, we're not doing it. and so being a member of the white house press pool is something. and i think we need to always stand for that. >> jimmy: i think it's important also, because it seems that the president gets most of his information directly from fox news. so when you say something -- [ laughter ] at least we know he's going to hear it and he knows it's not coming from an enemy source. does the president watch your show? >> i know he watches my show because we have a panel

discussion and it will be on a topic, and suddenly a tweet will come out about that topic. [ laughter ] and during the panel i'll say, "just in, the president says" x, y, and z. obviously i think he likes the opinion shows a little better than the news shows on fox. >> jimmy: i see, i see. >> but he definitely watches. >> jimmy: would you like to split fox news into news and opinion so that you are not all lumped together? i would imagine that shepherd smith and chris wallace and yourself, that sometimes you're not crazy about being part of -- just perception-wise, being a part of that. >> here's the thing. we're one team. we're one company. we're two different businesses entirely. the biggest problem is that people who are the most critical of fox are usually people who have not watched fox news. >> jimmy: people do lump certain things together. yes. >> i say, watch my show three times, drop me an e-mail, let me know what you think, tell me if it's fair. >> jimmy: i think that's a fair way to go about doing it.

now your book, "ronald reagan" -- i was reading a quote person in the united states who requires medical attention and cannot provide for himself should have it provided for him. that's from 1961. would republicans today, would they embrace ronald reagan? i know we look at him as this wonderful myth of a creature. do you think the real ronald reagan today would go over? >> that's really an interesting question. he might have a challenge. in a primary today. but ronald reagan was amazing at articulating his message. now remember, i mean, he was not exactly welcomed in washington. he was an outsider at the time. >> jimmy: right. >> he was considered kind of a bomb-thrower during that time. if you translate to this time, it's a lot different. >> jimmy: yeah, yeah, no, he would not be considered a bomb-thrower. [ laughter ] he'd barely even be a thrower, yeah. [ laughter ] >> he had a sign on his oval office desk that says, you can

accomplish anything -- there's no limit to what a man can do or where he can do it, as long as he doesn't care who gets credit for it. i mean, that sign is obviously -- >> jimmy: just like president trump! [ applause ] >> that sign is obviously not on his desk. >> jimmy: this is the book, it's called "three days in moscow," it's available now. bret baier, everybody! thank you for being here, bret. be right back with courtney barnett! >> dicky: the "jimmy kimmel live" concert series is presented by mercedes-benz. the best or nothing. nothing.
