>> jimmy: thank you very much. thank you. hello, hello, hello. very nice. thank you. i appreciate that. hello, brooklyn. welcome to the show. thank you for joining us. thank you for -- please. thank you for lining up to be here. we are inside the opera house at b.a.m., the brooklyn academy of music, for night three of our week-long brooklyn vacation. it does feel like a vacation. it is beautiful in brooklyn this time of year. in l.a. the only time the trees change colors when is they burst into flames. we don't really have seasons in southern california, we have awards season and flu season and that's it. this is our fourth year visiting b.a.m. i grew up in mill basin, which is down at the bottom of brooklyn. the basin, there are fans of it. i have to say, yes remember

there being doggy day spas when i was a kid. the dogs have a good thing going. not everything has changed in new york. for instance, someone shot this video in l.a. the other night, cruising by, watching a nude man pound a squad car. [ laughter ] that's a thing, if you're going to punch in the window of a cop car, you might as well do it naked. [ laughter ] this is very interesting. new york may top l.a. in the naked people watching department. but we apparently have you guys beat when it comes to rodents. orkin's list of the rattiest cities, l.a. beat new york. [ cheers and applause ] to become the second-most -- oh, thank you. i'll tell everyone you send your congrats. [ laughter ] second-most rat-infested city in america. chicago is number one, l.a. number two, new york has dropped to number three. no offense but i don't believe that for a second. [ laughter ] i haven't seen a rat in l.a. in 15 years.

this morning we ran into a place in park slope, three rats came into my kitchen, they tied up my garbage, they carried it out to the street for me. [ laughter ] i think orkin may be counting chihuahuas as rats. [ laughter ] maybe it's because new york rats are so bold. other cities they'll hide in your attic. new york, they'll eat your pizza on instagram. [ laughter ] by the way, speaking of pizza, let's bring out america's rolle poly security guard, guillermo. where are you? [ cheers and applause ] ♪ >> jimmy: guillermo. where are you -- guillermo, i did not know -- [ cheers and applause ]

lt ad ses? >> guillermo: yeah, they do. >> jimmy: you look great. i'm guessing that was the only exercise you've had this week. >> guillermo: that's right. it's the only exercise in six months. [ laughter ] >> jimmy: guillermo brought his son benji to brooklyn. did benji have fun while he was here? >> guillermo: yes, he loves new york. >> jimmy: my son billy is 18 months old. he learned new words. he says yellow now as if bodack yellow. he says bagel. i can't tell you how much he learned to say bagel in brooklyn, it's like learning to say hooker in vegas. [ cheers and applause ] now that he knows how to say bagel, he doesn't have to anymore. a few weeks ago the people who make emojis introduced a bagel emoji. this is new. which is fine. i thought it was fine. until a surprisingly sizable group of people online protested this emoji. do you know why?

they were upset because the bagel emoji doesn't have cream cha cheese on it. for real. half the country isn't regist registered to vote, they were working on this. they were successful, so much backlash they change the emoji for real, it now comes with what they call in the release a spread of cream cheese. it's not a spread, it's a schmear of cream cheese. [ cheers and applause ] you guys know that. saying you want a spread of cream cheese is like ordering an orb of vanilla ice cream, it's not, it's a scoop. secondly, it goes to show you how if we all put our minds to it and work together, we can effect change in the most meaningless way possible. [ laughter ] the weirdest part is you know the only thing people are going to do with a bagel emoji is put it next to the eggplant. [ laughter ] now there's cream cheese all over it. please write your congresspeople. speaking of congresspeople, the

democratic candidate for congress in the 14th district of the bronx, alexandria ocasio cortez, is here. [ cheers and applause ] she's very charming. also from the bronx, cardi b is in the opera house. [ cheers and applause ] which will be a lot of fun, she's a lot of fun. i don't know if you know this, "b" in cardi b stands for, "be careful, i might throw a show." my goal with cardi b is to find out what a money move is, i've never done one. we still have, to come, very accomplished new yorkers on our show this week but none more important or accomplished than the ones from the new york fire department, who risk their lives every single day. [ cheers and applause ] i think everyone admires firefighters and looks up to them. but i have to admit, i think the closest i've actually been to an actual firehouse is watching the movie "ghostbusters." i've not been there. i thought it might be fun to

spend the day with real firefighters. guillermo and i took a field trip to harlem to engine company 53 and ladder company 43 where we were fortunate enough to spend time with elbarrio's bravest. ♪ >> jimmy: we're reporting for duty, can we come in? thanks for having us. >> how are you, how are you, how are you? >> jimmy: look at this, these are firemen. >> guillermo: all of them in good shape. >> jimmy: that's right, you have to be in good shape, just like us. [ laughter ] so there's an engine company and a ladder company. who's on the engine company? who's on the ladder company? what's the difference? >> height. >> jimmy: height? tall guys are in the ladder company? it does seem to be the case. what's a typical day like here? >> these companies are probably one of the busiest companies in the area or around the city. >> jimmy: how many calls do you get a day? >> we had like 5,700 runs last year. >> yeah, about

[ aalarm ] >> jimmy: can we come on the call? >> there's no room. >> guillermo: we'll wait here. >> jimmy: we'll make some food. >> make some food, we'll build up an appetite. [ siren ] >> jimmy: it's a bit emasculating we got left behind while the guys went to save somebody's life. i have an idea i think they're going to like. we're going to do fire-themed pancakes. you know i like to make cartoon pancakes. >> guillermo: yeah. >> jimmy: you're going too help me,ri >> guillermo: all right. >> jimmy: what's your name? >> guillermo: guillermo. >> jimmy: nice to meet you. here we go. make it a little more red because we're in the firehouse. >> guillermo: maybe make a dog? >> jimmy: dalmatian.

allowed? >> sounds like a good idea but i don't think so. >> want to go for a ride? >> jimmy: what is your proudest ment as you think of -- every d you save people's lives, but what sticks out when i ask that? >> i don't think a day goes by where we're out there helping the public with a minor emergency or a house fire, where they don't express their gratitude for what we do. that means a lot. to know that we're appreciated by the community. >> jimmy: thanks for letting us come and hang out with you. i do have a request. it really has been a life-long dream to slide down the pole. would that be possible? >> sure. >> yeah. >> absolutely. >> jimmy: yeah? you want to slide down the pole? >> guillermo: no, you do it, i'll catch you. >> jimmy: to the pole! i want to go down like batman, you know? >> did for it. >> godspeed. >> jimmy: here we go. ♪ this girl is on fire

door-knocking in the community. i'll get home after a long day and i kind of turn and say, man, we won this election. >> jimmy: have you noticed a difference when you knock on doors now and people's reactions, compared to like a year ago? >> oh, yeah. sometimes people just lose their -- like, wait, you're knocking on my door? like back in the day when you would knock on the door and carry a big check to someone's door. >> jimmy: publisher's clearinghouse. >> yeah, yeah. people are like, is this real? yeah, we're doing the work. >> jimmy: you're doing so well in new york, you've been able to travel around the country helping other races in the party. >> yeah, yeah. >> jimmy: do people know you in the midwest, in these other states that you go to? >> yeah, yeah. they do. and it's been -- it's really been a pleasure and an honor of a lifetime to be able to communicate the values of health care, housing, education, to be accessible to working people across the country. i'm just really grateful that folks -- that message is

resonating everywhere. [ cheers and applause ] >> jimmy: you actually go around with the candidates you're supporting? do you travel with them? you speak on their behalf? >> yeah, yeah. >> jimmy: in their own hometown? >> yeah, absolutely. just a week ago -- it was funny. a week ago i was rallying with iona presley, who won her primary in massachusetts. driving back from boston, there was -- we stopped. so my family's obsessed with cracker barrel. >> jimmy: yeah, cracker barrel's good. >> this is a weird thing. >> jimmy: it doesn't seem like it would be, but it is good, yeah. >> yeah, i don't know if it's because we're from the bronx, it's like exotic to us or something. [ laughter ] >> jimmy: i feel the same way. >> but we drove up, we stopped at a cracker barrel. we're sitting there having our meal. this woman stops by me. she goes, you look just like that young lady who won the primary. and i said, i am that young lady who won the primary. she went, oh my goodness! she said, i need to take you to see my husband.

and i said, sure, sure. i was finishing my meal. we stood up. she walks me over to the men's restroom. [ laughter ] so i'm sitting there. >> jimmy: what? >> they're from missouri. >> jimmy: oh, not into the men's restroom? >> no, just outside. >> jimmy: all right. that's better. >> she was like, yeah, no, my husband is a huge fan of yours. so i said, okay. we're chatting. we're in the cracker barrel. it's this motion-activated thing behind me singing jingle bells and christmas songs. we were talking. then we're chitchatting. all of a sudden her husband comes out. he looks over. and he looks at his wife and back at me and he goes, "well, i'll be damned." [ laughter ] but then they told me the story about how their cousin actually is unfortunately diagnosed -- these battling cancer right now. and they're telling me, you know, she can't continue in her work because of her diagnosis. and she has to pay $500 a month

for insurance. and then another $800 for her medications every single month. and they said, you know, even though they're all the way from missouri, this is not a message -- advocating for health care as a right, fighting so people don't have to go bankrupt to go to the doctor, should be an american right. [ cheers and applause ] >> jimmy: right. to stay alive. more than just go to the doctor. when you were a student, did you like run for student council? >> i did. >> jimmy: you did. did you win? >> i did. >> jimmy: you did, oh. >> yeah, 2 for 2. >> jimmy: what did your parent dozen for work? >> so my father had a small business. he was born in the south bronx. that's right, yerp! and my mother cleaned houses growing up. and so i kind of grew up between

two worlds at a very young age. my parents felt like they had to move me to another zip code so i could get the same public education that any other kid in america should get. and so we made ends meet. my mom cleaned houses and i often would go with her as a kid. and in fact that's how i got s.a.t. tutoring as a kid. my mom would clean the home of the s.a.t. tutor in exchange for the tutor teaching me. >> jimmy: wow, so were they teaching you very slowly? [ laughter ] >> yeah, yeah. for sure, for sure. >> jimmy: and you are right now also focused on encouraging people to actually vote. >> yeah. >> jimmy: it is shocking when you look at the numbers of how many young people especially in the last midterm election, which doesn't have the glamor of a presidential election, less than 20% of 18 to 24-year-olds voted in that midterm election. what do you tell these kids? >> well, you know, i think in our primary election, we

actually expanded the electorate about 68%. >> jimmy: you have more people -- >> over the last off-year midterm primary. >> jimmy: more people to vote? >> yeah, we got more people to vote. the night of the primary these two young men were bouncing basketballs, leaning against a tree, typing into my phone. they looked at me, hey, we just voted for you. and i went, how old are you? they said, 19. and it really made me feel like this was a special year. [ cheers and applause ] >> jimmy: yeah. >> it did. so i know if you're watching this right now, put it in your cell phone calendar. make an event. say, i need to vote on november 6th. but also, it means that we need to also have policies that champion young people. we need to be talking about climate change. we need to be talking about student loan debt. >> jimmy: that's right. >> we need to be talking about -- [ cheers and applause ] >> jimmy: no politician is going to care about that unless those

people actually vote. so that's the best way to do it. it's really great to have you here and to meet you. keep going. november 6th. go vote. alexandria ocasio-cortez, everyone. be back with j balvin, zion and lennox! >> dicky: music in brooklyn on "jimmy kimmel live" is brought to you by google pixel 3. ixel 3. ♪ ♪ ♪
