11:36 pm
i worry you're setting yourselves up for disappointment. [ laughter ] welcome to "jimmy kimmel live!" i'm your guest host, sarah silverman. [ cheers and applause ] thank you. but look. i know you guys miss jimmy, but take it from me, you will get over him. [ laughter ] it's true. he does not have to define you. [ laughter ] sure, you wasted your childbearing years with him. [ laughter ] but you will find you again. and this time you'll be stronger and you'll be wiser, but also older. [ laughter ] look, my point is -- "freeze your eggs!" [ laughter ] i am so -- okay. [ applause ] i feel you've been told to clap but i'll take it. i'm so happy to be indoors with this beautiful, fully vaccinated
11:37 pm
crowd. [ cheers and applause ] what did don barris give you? [ laughter ] you know, here in l.a. they may start making people show proof they've been vaxxed to enter public indoor spaces. if getting vaccinated lets me go to a bar or a gym in l.a., that's a small price to pay to hang out with some of the worst people alive. [ laughter ] [ applause ] do you hear my bubble? i have a bub, i talk through it. because i'm a pro. [ laughter ] making people get vaccinated is obviously a touchy subject. so i think there should be specific bars that we let the unvaccinated keep, like dave & busters or cabo wabo. [ laughter ] it's weird that l.a. is leading the charge on rationality.
11:38 pm
this is a city where 11% of the residents are life coaches. [ laughter ] i'm not saying life coaches are crazy. i'm just saying, crazy people are life coaches. [ laughter ] [ applause ] slippery slope. i mean, come on. what's next with this stuff? before kids can go to school, they'll have to get a shot for polio and diphtheria, tetanus, measles, mumps, rubella, chickenpox, and hepatitis b? oh, wait, they already do that? [ cheers and applause ] the big story making the rounds is that the pope did something very unusual for a pope. pope francis interrupted his eekly audience at the vatican to take a call on a cell phone. [ laughter ] who was he talking to? oh my god, do you think it was
11:39 pm
jesus? [ laughter and achieves ] listen, i don't care who you are. if kroq calls, you immediately pick up and say the phrase that pays or you're not getting those ozomatli tickets. [ laughter and applause ] they actually released audio of the pope's call, here it is. >> what? he's stepping down from the conservatorship? oh my god! they freed britney! hey, guys, they freed britney! [ laughter ] [ cheers and applause ] >> sarah: yay! see, it was an important call. all right. football season is a few weeks away. [ cheers ] oh, football fans here, wonderful. but this year they are trying to get rid of all this trash talk. they're going to strictly enforce the league's taunting rules.
11:40 pm
they want everyone on the field to respect each other. and that is just a weird message to send to players. "give that guy a concussion, but do it with a smile." [ laughter ] be nice to them! it's nice the nfl is cracking down on taunting. maybe next season they'll crack down on domestic violence. [ laughter ] [ applause ] hey, a girl can dream. yeah i'm the [ bleep ] for bringing it up. [ laughter ] speaking of men in tights, you know robin? aka batman's sidekick? right? well, this week he officially came out as queer. [ cheers and applause ] yep. it was in the latest issue of the batman comics. robin revealed he is bisexual. which is so cool. i think, you know. [ cheers and applause ] i think the best thing we can do for robin right now is to be
11:41 pm
really supportive and act totally surprised. [ laughter ] one of the writers at the show has some very strong opinions about this, so here now is louis virtel, to virtel like it is. [ cheers and applause ] >> thank you, sarah. robin. bisexual. if this rocked you to your core, i don't know what to tell you. [ laughter ] you're like one of those housewives in the '50s who saw liberace and thought,"he's got a cape, a feathered headdress, and once he has a christian wife, he'll have everything!" [ laughter ] it was always leading up to this. since the '60s, robin hasn't had much of a personality besides tight clothing and shaving his thighs, and frankly, i feel seen. [ laughter ] that was the dick grayson robin, of course. here's a picture of robin in his current incarnation, tim drake.
11:42 pm
remember when superheroes used to look like gods to us? now they look like any peloton instructor named shane. [ laughter ] there aren't a lot of gay superheroes, but a lot of superheroes are gay icons. like aquaman. [ laughter and cheers ] you can't tell from this photo but he's helping thousands of gay tweens through puberty at this very moment. [ laughter ] don't take that down, let them drink it in. [ laughter ] but there are some superheroes who've been revealed as queer in one series or another. marvel's got loki, and northstar. dc's got batwoman. and midnighter. "sailor moon" has a queer character named, no joke, sailor uranus. [ laughter ] that's the first queer comic book character named after what they called me in middle school. [ laughter ] i'm over it, it's okay.
11:43 pm
my favorite queer superhero is cobweb. from the tomorrow stories series. here's her only superpowers, not making this up. one, allure. and two, making an entrance. [ laughter ] neither of those are superpowers. [ laughter ] that's just beyonce at the soul train awards. [ applause ] and there should be comic books about that! frankly, i'm glad batman was so accepting of robin. he watched his parents get murdered while holding theater tickets. [ laughter ] that sounds like the origin story for world's gayest supervillain. [ laughter ] but robin's out and now there's a chance we'll get interesting gay storylines from one of the biggest comic book characters of all time. will he date lots of guys? get catfished on grindr by the penguin? [ laughter ] make the mistake of spending
11:44 pm
$500 to see madonna in concert even though she never performs "lucky star" anymore? [ laughter ] only time will tell, but robin, welcome to the fold. and riddler, baby --- if you wanna talk, i'm here. [ laughter ] [ cheers and applause ] sarah? >> sarah: whoo! thanks, louis. louis virtel, everyone. all right, i know we're having a good time, we're having fun. but while i have this national platform, i want to talk about something that's very important to me. so please, take a look. >> our country is facing a crisis. if you've been online, you understand how dire the situation has become. and if we don't take action right now, it may be too late. hi. i'm sarah silverman. actor, comedian, and creator of the hit broadway show "hamilton." and i'm here to tell you that plague that affects every single one of us.
11:45 pm
podcasts. [ laughter ] experts estimate that 8 out of every 10 americans currently hosts a podcast. and the other two are talking about starting one. together. fact. if you listen to every podcast back to back, it would take 11 million years. but now there is hope. with pod squad. this incredible organization sends representatives like me to the homes of would-be podcasters to intervene with empathy and care. >> today we wade into the gazpacho debate. is it a soup? >> no! nobody wants this! ♪ cleaning up my mess! >> but my listeners! why? >> oh, thank god. >> we never let our empathy and care get in the way of stopping these delusional people in their tracks. >> can you guess what kind of
11:46 pm
ball this is? that's right, a classic -- >> no. >> wait, wait, this is important to with a dailed rehabilita prram, >> i guess i didn't get enough attention as a child. and that led to me -- >> are you tired of going to the post office? now there's a better way, with stamps.com. >> lucy, we talked about this. >> with promo code "lucy" get 10% off your first -- [ laughter ] >> oh, no, she's going to cry. okay. okay, come here, it's okay. we present an alternative that allows them to incessantly hear themselves talk and spout uninformed opinions without subjecting people to it. >> the "star wars" prequels are better than the originals. i'm a podcaster. >> no. you just are hearing yourself. [ laughter ]
11:47 pm
so please act now. because if we can prevent just one new podcast from happening, the world will be a better place. and check out the sarah silverman podcast wherever you listen to podcasts. i swear if either of you touch me, i'm going to talk about it on my podcast. >> what kind of threat is that? we're on television right now. >> oh, we're on television? you mean all the grandpas who watch television might see? oh, no, you're going to carry me out -- because that's how you end a bit on television! [ cheers and applause ] >> sarah: and one more thing. it is thursday night, which means it's time to bleep and blur the big tv moments of the week whether they need it or not. it's this week in unnecessary cens censorship. [ cheers and applause ] >> andrew cuomo, the embattled governor of new york, is still speaking to his state and has just announced that he intends

[ cheers and applause ] >> sarah: i remember reading that your mother got you into acting classes when you were 5. and i'm like, well, either she is like a frustrated performer that pushed her kid. but i think this is my theory. you were, like, one of those, like, shirley temple, like, as a toddler, they were like this person needs to be on stage. >> yes. i'm glad it was the latter.

[ laughter ] i'm very proud of it. it was a very -- it was -- i was 11 years old or something like that, and this was, like, my first, like, gig. i was supposed to be fishing with my fake granddad, i suppose, another actor. so that was weird. my line was, you know, "grandpa, the fish ain't biting today." and he hands me a piece of chicken. [ laughter ]
12:01 am
and i bite the chicken. and i was supposed to say, "mm, i like this kind of biting!" [ laughter and applause ] i remember the director telling me, take a bigger bite of chicken! a bigger bite! i'm like, this is racist as phe. [ laughter ] but they paid me, and i enjoyed it, it was a good time. >> sarah: yeah. i mean, look, if loving chicken is racist? i don't want to be -- >> how does it go? >> sarah: yeah, i don't know how that joke would go. >> i would like to be -- in florida. i think that's how it goes. [ laughter ] >> sarah: what was it like being a famous teenager? you were a teenager, you were a star. >> thank you. it happened later than that i think. i remember me and carol like went to the mall when kenan and kell first came -- the first season. you had to have nickelodeon number one, and really be watching it, and be at the mall. [ laughter ] we stood in the middle of the mall to see if anybody would
12:02 am
recognize us. for like 90 minutes too long.
