tv   Jimmy Kimmel Live  ABC  March 26, 2021 11:35pm-12:37am PDT

11:35 pm
we appreciate your time. right now on jimmy kimmel, michelle >> dicky: from hollywood, it's "jimmy kimmel live"! tonight -- michelle obama, and music from brittany howard. and now, jimmy kimmel! [ cheers and applause ] >> jimmy: hi, everyone. i'm jimmy. i'm the host. thanks for watching. thanks for watching on st. patrick's day eve. are you ready for it? >> guillermo: i'm ready. >> jimmy: what are you going to do? >> guillermo: drink and eat. >> jimmy: do you know the traditional foods? >> guillermo: i'm going to eat tacos and spaghetti. [ laughter ] >> jimmy: that's it, that's right. very irish. this will not be the usual beer-soaked parade this year. the cdc is urging americans to engage in virtual celebrations. in an official statement today,
11:36 pm
"recommend all americans stay home this st. patrick's day and get blackout drunk alone, like real irishmen." [ cheers and applause ] and i, for one, am offended. but we must remain vigilant. the fear is that a fourth wave of the virus is coming. the white house is trying to get as many people vaccinated before the new, more contagious variants lead to another surge. it's a race against time and stupidity. people keep saying they're over the pandemic. which it's a virus, it's not words with friends. [ laughter ] you can't just be over it. every expert says another wave can be prevented and we can actually put an end to this if we're smart and wear masks. but the problem is we're not smart. we don't wear masks. we're dumb. we're dumb people. [ laughter ] it's interesting, i read the other day that among our many other problems, the planet is facing a shortage of sand. there's a sand shortage because of demand for construction which means we will soon have nothing to stick our heads in. [ laughter ]
11:37 pm
over at fox news, their nostrils are full of sand. they are having a very hard time trying to convince us that joe biden is behind the wheel of a runaway truck or something. tucker carlson pulled a tired old rabbit out of his hood last night going on and on about cardi b and megan thee stallion at the grammys sunday night. >> what do they consider art? that's the question. we learned last night the grammy awards. here's a clip of the only portion we could play you. ♪ ♪ wet wet wet i'm talking that's he wet wet wet ♪ ♪ now make your brain if you want to see the wet wet wet ♪ ♪ >> no more dumbo. it's too filthy. >> jimmy: boy. if this elvis presley keeps rotating his hips like that, satan will impregnate our daughters! [ laughter ] >> the destruction of american
11:38 pm
values, american principles. it's terrifying. parents should be terrified that this is the direction that our society is heading towards. we are weakening america. that's what we should be talking about, this is a weakening of american society. we are setting the stage, it feels like we are looking at corrosion, like we are about to see the end of an empire. america cannot survive, it cannot be sustained under these sorts of values and principles. >> jimmy: right, right. deadly attack on our nation's capitol, understandable. two black women with a dirty pop song? the end of an empire. [ laughter ] [ cheers and applause ] pretty sure they said the same thing about madonna and george michael in the '80s. but i guess they have nothing real to complain about. even marjorie taylor greene is running out of topics. klan mom was on newsmax yesterday. [ laughter ] where she sounded an alarm at the border. >> you see, the greatest thing about america is this country is the place everyone wants to be. joe biden has ripped our borders open and invited over 100 different countries to come here. and that's exactly what they're finding.
11:39 pm
he's taken away all of trump's strong border security executive orders and now we even have terrorists possibly coming into our country. >> terrorists and covid, by the way. a lot of covid, too. >> jimmy: oh, wait, i thought we didn't have to worry about covid. now covid is real? [ laughter ] i guess you two idiots should be wearing masks then, huh? [ laughter and applause ] don jr. is also workshopping some new joe biden material. djtj is angry that biden hasn't weighed in on the sexual misconduct allegations against new york governor andrew cuomo. who is getting close to breaking presidaddy's all-time record for sexual misconduct by an american politician. >> your reaction to all of this? >> it's my -- listen, it doesn't surprise me. i wrote the book "liberal privilege" because that's exactly what this is. joe biden won't comment on it. didn't stop joe biden from commenting on brett kavanaugh or any other republican that's been accused of these things. joe biden, probably not the best person to talk about these
11:40 pm
things, given his history of sniffing children, et cetera. [ laughter ] >> jimmy: sniffing? sniffing children. we want to know what you are sniffing. that's what we'd like to know. [ applause ] >> jimmy: if i was you, donnie, i'd stuff the word "sniffing" back into the family thesaurus. and then the fraudiga son gave us a review of the work his father's conqueror has done so far. >> i think it's probably the most disastrous first 60 days in the history of american politics and certainly the presidency. >> jimmy: okay. all right. name ten presidents. go ahead. [ laughter ] please. we'll wait. i'm working on a new game show for donald trump jr. it's called "name ten presidents and pee in this cup." [ laughter ] meanwhile, north korea has no plan to make nice with the biden administration soon. after a long period of silence, kim jong-un's sister, khloé jong-un, lashed out. or is it kourtney? [ laughter ] kourtney jong-un lashed out. she warned the biden administration that if it wants
11:41 pm
peace it had better, quote, "refrain from causing a stink at its first step." "we take this opportunity to warn the new u.s. administration trying hard to give off powder smell in our land." i'm sure it sounds more threatening in korean. [ laughter ] it's funny because north korea thinks these statements they make are sick burns but they always sound like riddles. "if you wish to cross the bridge, be wise not to anger us like the cat who swallowed mushrooms unwashed!" [ laughter ] by the way, it's rare that a dictator's sibling speaks out. i don't remember reading any stern warnings from lois hitler. [ laughter ] president biden has been trying to reach out to north korea for weeks, kim jong-un isn't having it. i don't know if he's tried sending a love letter? i hear kim is really into those. we haven't heard much from kim jong-un at all since trump left office. i hope the little fella's okay. i wonder how he's doing? ♪ ♪ ♪
11:42 pm
♪ ♪ ♪ ♪ ♪ ♪ >> i will always give you my love! [ cheers and applause ] >> jimmy: yeah. he's just a little rocket man, standing in front of a former president asking him to love him. that's all. oh, well. they'll always have singapore.
11:43 pm
[ laughter ] trump may be out of office but he's still doing a lot of heavy grifting. big-money republican donors have fundraisers and photo ops.go fo- putting cash into trump's candy corn-colored coffers. over the past few years, conservative groups have spent around $12 million on events at trump-owned properties. now they go straight to mar-a-lao where they can maybe catch a glimpse of trump shuffling by. it's like disneyland but the only character is dopey. [ laughter ] airlines right now are cracking down on what they say is a rise of "unruly passengers." specifically, passengers who refuse to wear masks. which -- that's some logic. you trust the engineers who built the plane, you trust the people who operate the plane. you put your seatbelt on, you know that's going to make you safer, you know where the oxygen is that you will use if you need it. you trust the air traffic controllers who watch the radar and tell the planes where to go. but then they ask you to put a napkin over your face and you're like, no way! i do not believe the science!
11:44 pm
[ laughter ] [ applause ] funny thing about most of these people who won't wear a mask, the vast majority of them look better in the mask. [ laughter ] this an odd business story out of the u.k. there is a chain of footwear stores over there called "shoe zone." they have 500 stores in england and ireland. shoe zone recently got a new boss. this is real, we did not make this up. "terry boot replaces peter foot at shoe zone." [ laughter ] there they are. boot and foot. i guess foot got the boot, i don't know. [ laughter ] i enjoy stuff like this. i am amused by people whose names match their occupations. so we did a bit of digging, a lot of digging actually, and found four perfectly named people who i am pleased to introduce you to tonight. [ cheers and applause ] first up, we go to olympia, washington, to meet a state supreme court judge and frequent wedding officiant. hello there. how are you? thank you for taking the time to join us. >> hi, jimmy. >> jimmy: hi. before i reveal your name, how long have you been a judge?
11:45 pm
>> well, i've been a judge now for 21 years. and the last seven have been on the state supreme court. >> jimmy: and how many weddings have you officiated in that time? >> oh, just a little over 650. >> jimmy: 650 weddings. and what is your name? >> mary yu. [ cheers and applause ] >> jimmy: when you preside over a wedding, do you say "i, mary yu, marry you"? >> that's a good line that i might try. >> jimmy: you haven't. can mary yu legally divorce you too? is that in your wheelhouse? >> we judges have a lot of power. [ laughter ] >> jimmy: overall, would you say this name has been a good thing for you? or a nuisance? >> no, it's been wonderful. and i just have to say, jimmy, you know, having this name actually gave me the opportunity
11:46 pm
to preside over the first same-sex marriage in the state of washington. [ cheers and applause ] >> jimmy: oh, wow. that's a pretty big deal. wow. do you have any siblings? is there an ef? maybe a kil? [ laughter ] >> i have one lovely sibling with the right name. [ laughter ] >> jimmy: thank you very much, mary, it was nice to meet you. that's mary yu, everyone. [ cheers and applause ] we journey to surrey, england, to meet a nutritionist and vegetarian cookbook author. hello, there. first, how long have you been working in the field of nutrition? >> i've been a nutritionist over 30 years. about 36 years. >> jimmy: you are a long time nutritionist. you are a vegetarian. what are some of your favorite vegetarian foods? >> oh, i love -- i do cook a lot with beans. garbanzo beans.
11:47 pm
i love them all, black beans. i do bean burgers, chickpea stews. i do a lot of cooking with beans and lentils. >> jimmy: you mentioned garbanzo beans and chickpeas, aren't they the same thing? >> they're exactly the same thing, jimmy. [ laughter ] >> jimmy: it's time to reveal your name. go ahead. >> my name is anita bean. [ cheers and applause ] >> jimmy: anita bean. is there a mr. bean? >> definitely. >> jimmy: any beanie babies? >> i'm married. i'm married to simon bean, and i've got two beautiful daughters. their names are chloe and lucy bean. >> jimmy: anita. it's a risky name to give a girl who might one day -- you could have married andy dick and it would have been a problem. [ laughter ] not just because of the last name, either. well, thank you for staying up
11:48 pm
so late, anita. i appreciate it. >> yeah, no, thanks for having me on. >> jimmy: thanks for being on. go crack a window. we go next to jackson, georgia, to say hello to a correctional officer in jackson. hello there, how are you? >> i'm great, how are you, jimmy? >> jimmy: i'm doing well. how are things in jackson right now? >> cold and wet. >> jimmy: cold and wet. >> yes. we're experiencing wet weather all day. >> jimmy: now, your job, i think we got a clue as to what you do based on your uniform. you are -- >> yes. >> jimmy: also the words are up there on the screen. [ laughter ] you're a correctional officer. i'm not too bright. [ laughter ] where do you do your correctional officer'ing? >> right here in jackson. i am a sergeant over our high-max facility here in georgia. >> jimmy: oh, you must see some crazy stuff there, huh? >> you would not believe. [ laughter ]
11:49 pm
>> jimmy: i would like three hours of your time to get in there. [ laughter ] >> no problem, jimmy, no problem. >> jimmy: would you be so kind as to share your name with everyone? >> my name is sergeant robin banks. [ laughter and applause ] >> jimmy: robbing banks. are you married? >> i am, yes. >> jimmy: what was your maiden name? >> my maiden name was wineglass. >> jimmy: wineglass? >> yes. [ laughter ] >> jimmy: that would have been a good name for anita, anita wineglass, right? >> i need a wine glass every day. ys, jimmy, every day. >> jimmy: do you have problems when you're trying to make a withdrawal? [ laughter ] >> not normally, because when i'm in public, i'm usually armed. [ laughter ] >> jimmy: oh, okay. >> so normally i don't have a problem. [ laughter ] >> jimmy: thank you very much, sergeant robin banks. [ cheers and applause ]
11:50 pm
last but not least, austin, texas, to meet a retired urologist, which i'm already excited about this. [ laughter ] how long did you work as a urologist? >> well, jimmy, first of all, thanks for having me. >> jimmy: yeah. >> that is great fun. i've been in austin, texas, for 37 years, y'all. >> jimmy: 37 years. as a urologist, you had a particular specialty, correct? >> well, yeah. i was trained in urologic oncology. since being in austin, i've become the vasectomy machine. [ laughter ] after 16,000 vasectomies plus, i've earned the honor. >> jimmy: wow. you have handled a lot of penises. [ laughter ] may i ask, what is your name, doctor? >> my name is dr. dick chopp. [ laughter ] [ cheers and applause ] i earned that name, sir.
11:51 pm
>> jimmy: and never once did you think, maybe i'll go with richard? [ laughter ] >> well, you know. that's my real name. but everybody calls me dick now. [ laughter ] that's the way it is. whether they like me or not, you know? >> jimmy: please tell me you have a son named karate. [ laughter ] >> i don't, i don't. >> jimmy: wow. and does this scare your patients ever, when you come in, dick chopp shows up at the door? >> not really. most of them come in to see me for their vasectomies. >> jimmy: yeah. >> and over the past 20 years, all the gentlemen that come in get a t-shirt. >> jimmy: oh. >> that says "i've been chopped at urology austin." [ laughter ] it's a good marketing tool, yeah. great fun. >> jimmy: has this been good for your business overall? being named dick chopp? >> yes, certainly, certainly. the interesting thing is i retired in december of 2020. and in the month prior to my retirement, guys were coming out of the woodwork to come in and
11:52 pm
get their vasectomies by yours truly. [ laughter ] in retrospect, i think a lot of them wanted the t-shirt [ laughter and applause ] >> jimmy: yeah, i would love one of those. thank you, dr. chopp. >> my pleasure. [ cheers and applause ] thanks to all our perfectly named people. we've got a great show for you tonight. guess who's here? first of all, we've got music from brittany howard. [ cheers and applause ] and we'll be right back with michelle obama, so stick around! [ cheers and applause ] >> dicky: next week on "jimmy kimmel live" --

[ laughter ] oh, yeah, we have been together. it's going well. you know, we are of the mindset in this time that if we have our health, we're doing well. so we are blessed. but no, no, we have been together. [ laughter ] for a very long time.
11:59 pm
>> jimmy: how long was it fun? i would imagine when the kids are back, back in the house -- >> well, yeah, it was fun for a long time. i mean, we set up this routine. [ laughter ] you know, everybody would go into their spaces and do their work, the kids would do their classes, you know. we'd be doing whatever. then we'd come together for cocktail hour. >> jimmy: oh. >> get a glass of wine and do an activity, like we were into puzzles for a while. i bought some oil paints. we had painting week. >> jimmy: wow. >> i'd taken up knitting. >> jimmy: oh, wow. >> you know, the girls were baking. it was all just sugar and light. then we'd have dinner, then we'd play a family game. i think that lasted for a month or so. [ laughter ] >> jimmy: uh-huh. >> and then, you know. the kids would come down later. be a little more surly. [ laughter ] a little less communicative. we ran out of funny stories to tell. then summer came, and that
12:00 am
helped. we could eat outside every now and then. >> jimmy: uh-huh. >> now, a year in, you know. we don't really even get a hello when people come to the table. [ laughter ] sometimes it's like, what's up? how's your day? same, same. dead. nothing happened, okay? [ laughter ] >> jimmy: and how about dad? because you've spoken and he has spoken about the fact that he's not exactly tidy around the house. has he shored up that area of behavior? >> oh. >> jimmy: is he being cleaner in the house? >> he's cleaner but it's not because of him, it's because he has someone that does it now. >> jimmy: i see. >> he likes to take credit for it like, you see how neat i am? i'm like, it's not you, you have nothing to do with it. >> jimmy: i do the same thing. [ laughter ] >> yeah, it's very neat around our house. >> jimmy: i gotcha. >> except for the kids' rooms and we just don't go up there.
12:01 am
[ laughter ] given up that floor. >> jimmy: the president was on our show right when his book came out. and in that first week, his book outsold your book. but since then, i think you're like, do you know how far ahead of him you are as far as book sales go? >> no, of course jimmy, i don't count. [ laughter ] [ cheers and applause ] of course i know. i'm way ahead. way, way, way ahead. [ applause ] >> jimmy: since you don't know, i will tell you. it's 3.3 million, which is a lot of books. to 15 plus million. [ cheers and applause ] which is a lot more books. you both have podcasts now. are you comparing downloads as well? >> no, not really. because it's like, my podcast came out this summer, his just came out. >> jimmy: right. >> so it's like we're tag teaming, you know. i do something, he does
12:02 am
something, i do something. >> jimmy: he follows, yeah. he has a tag team -- he has a partner in his tag team. bruce springsteen. >> yeah, yeah. >> jimmy: who he said on his podcast that you suggested he spend more time with bruce springsteen. because bruce seemed to be more evolved than he is. [ laughter ] >> no, don't -- i hear people laughing. >> jimmy: yeah? [ laughter ] >> but let me just say this. bruce springsteen is one of my favorite people. not just because of his music. but he's one of the few men that i know who has really done the work of self-reflection and he's willing to share. right? so, i mean, he really goes in. and that's what "renegade," the podcast, is about. how rare is it, jimmy, for men -- [ laughter ] -- to tap into their feelings, jimmy? i'd love to talk to molly about this. [ laughter ]
12:03 am
she's the one i'd talk to. >> jimmy: yes. >> it's just a rare thing for two men to talk about feelings and fears and growing up. and bruce was always, since i've known him, he's been very forthcoming. so that's what makes the podcast amazing. >> jimmy: do you feel that it has rubbed off on barack, bruce? >> yeah, yeah. yeah, yes. [ laughter ] he is becoming more tapped into his feelings and ready to express them. >> jimmy: it seems like it was 100 years ago. but it was a couple of years ago. i interviewed you in tacoma, washington, in front of a big group of people. you were on your book tour. and we had a great talk. it was a lot of fun. and everyone was very excited to see you. and i asked you a question that night. and i actually asked your husband this question as well, and he kicked it back to you. i asked you that on the night that seal team 6 took out osama
12:04 am
bin laden at your husband's order, did you and your husband make love that night to celebrate? [ laughter ] >> you know, i have to tell your audience that, for some very sick reason. >> jimmy: uh-huh? >> you are very obsessed with -- [ laughter ] -- this portion of that major historical event. >> jimmy: yes. [ laughter ] >> in a way that no one else, no one in the history of all the conversations i've had -- >> uh-huh? >> -- has anybody drilled down on this clash point -- [ laughter ] -- like you, jimmy kimmel. so i turn that back on you. >> jimmy: that's my version of self-reflection. [ laughter ] >> that's what you want to know. you're still that little boy in your bedroom under the cover with the flashlight going, i hope nobody sees me. [ laughter ] >> jimmy: actually, it was a propane torch, and that's why the house burned down. [ laughter ] but yes. >> i'm still pleading the fifth. >> jimmy: you're pleading the fifth, all right.
12:05 am
tomorrow is st. patrick's day. you're from chicago. >> yes. >> jimmy: where they really celebrate st. patrick's day. >> turn an entire river green every year. >> jimmy: and you guys are also -- you've been honored by -- i don't know where this is in ireland. but we have a photo of the barack obama plaza, which appears to be a truck stop, at which there are statues of you and your husband. [ laughter ] >> that is real, people. >> jimmy: yes. >> that is not -- that's not photoshop. that is in moneygall. >> jimmy: have you been to visit? >> yes, yes. in fact, was it first term or second term? i'm getting it confused. but we went to ireland, and we visited moneygall, which is a wonderful town, and he has many cousins there. we had a night at the pub where we drain some guinness and laughed and joked. it's obviously his grandmother's, maternal grandmother's side of the family
12:06 am
is from moneygall. since then some came to the white house to visit. a lot of people think the "o" in obama -- just kidding. [ laughter ] >> jimmy: a little apostrophe after it. >> there's an apostrophe no one knew about. yeah, no. that's his ancestral home is monegall. >> jimmy: when is the last time the two of you got really drunk? [ laughter ] >> let's see. what's today? no. [ laughter ] >> jimmy: michelle obama is with us. "waffles and mochi" is on netflix. we'll be right back with i think perhaps an insurmountable challenge, as michelle obama goes one on one with my daughter, jane. we'll be right back. daughter, jane. we'll be right back.

12:12 am
what do we have here? >> we have this magnificent spread of mushrooms. >> oh, wow. look at this, this one looks just like an elephant ear. >> that's because it's an elephant ear mushroom. really tasty, too. >> where did you get all these amazing mushrooms? >> a mushroom farm in japan. >> in japan? >> uh-huh. >> you went to japan? >> that's right. >> you guys are so busy. >> i thought i was busy. >> we learned just because something is different, it doesn't mean you won't like it. [ cheers and applause ] >> jimmy: that is "waffles and mochi," the new beloved children's characters on netflix. michelle obama, executive producer of the show, your husband is executive producer of the show as well. did he do any work on this show? >> no, absolutely nothing. [ laughter ] >> jimmy: nothing. that's a quality many executive producers share. so by the way, what a great idea for a show. because it is very difficult to get some children to eat healthy
12:13 am
and to try new things and try things from all around the world. you've got chefs on the show, you've got celebrities on the show, you've got lionel richie on the show encouraging kids to eat. >> yeah. >> jimmy: how did lionel come to mind when doing a show about children and food? >> you know, the cocreators reached out to a broad cross-section. and lionel richie helps to close out the season. kind of in a surprise way that i won't give away. >> jimmy: okay, all right. >> if you can imagine, you know. >> jimmy: yes. >> how would lionel richie show up with "waffles and mochi"? it's just amazing. a lot of celebrity guests were excited to join in. because you look at the script and you see the storyline. and there's humor. one of the cocreators was jeremy conners, cocreator of "drunk history." he brings the funny. if you can imagine. so it's one of these shows that you want to watch with your

[ laughter ] >> thanks for being a good sport, sweetie. i'm still very proud of you. >> jimmy: how about this? will you eat that? >> yes. [ laughter ] >> what if we put the string beans on the pizza? >> jimmy: that's a great idea! >> no! >> jimmy: oh, that's a bad idea. thank you, mrs. obama, sorry. [ laughter ] [ cheers and applause ]
