have a good night. >> dicky: from hollywood, it's "jimmy kimmel live"! tonight -- gabrielle union, mark duplass, and music from angels & airwaves. and now, jimmy kimmel! [ cheers and applause ] ♪ >> jimmy: very nice. thank you. thank you. guillermo. thanks. i'm jimmy, yap the host of the show. thank you for watching. relax, please. we have a lot to go through tonight. a new group of bachelorette hopefuls, a new richest man in the world, but before all that, i feel like we have no choice but to review the contents of a

new book about donald trump. you remember that guy? [ laughter ] okay. today we got a fresh batch of inside stuff. way inside stuff. from stephanie grisham, who served as trump's white house press secretary, and melania's chief of staff, she was on the inside from day one. she's got a book, it's called "i'll take your questions now." and you're not gonna believe this. turns out this trump character is a real nut. [ laughter ] according to ms. grisham, trump cuts his own hair with a giant pair of scissors, which is by far the least-shocking revelation of all of them. let's just run through them. grisham says that during the g-20 summit in 2019, trump told putin before their meeting, "okay, i'm going to act a little tougher with you for a few minutes. but it's for the cameras, and after they leave we'll talk. you understand." which that's not something a president says to another world leader. especially vladimir putin. that's something hulk hogan says to andre the giant. before wrestlemania. [ laughter ] when all the stormy daniels

stuff came out, grisham says trump called her from air force one to let her know his penis was not small or toadstool shaped. [ laughter ] which is basically confirmation that his penis is small and toadstool shaped. [ laughter ] [ applause ] "thank you for letting me know, mr. president. gisham also details the lengths staffers would go to to mitigate his temper tantrums. she says the white house had an official they called the "music man." turns out this guy happened to be her boyfriend at thetime, who would play trump's favorite show tunes to calm him down. i love that. "the president is furious. someone get his chita rivera cd stat!" [ laughter ] one of the songs they would play to cool trump down was "memory" from "cats." [ laughter ] of course that's trump's favorite showtune, from the only musical that grabs you by the pussy. [ cheers and applause ] ♪ stephanie grisham, who sat and

quietly watched all this lunacy go down, admits she should have spoken up more. more? in the nine months she was press secretary, she didn't hold a single press conference. she should have spoken up once. that would have been more than -- by the way, it's not just her. no one spoke up. all these so-called "adults in the room." as they like to call themselves. if the president is snorting adderall and throwing fried chicken at foreign leaders, maybe don't wait three years to. but this was the funniest bombshell. a couple of years ago, you remember back in 2019, when trump took that mysterious trip to walter reed hospital? people were thinking maybe he had a heart attack or a stroke or something? well, it was neither of those. he went to the hospital to have a colonoscopy. and he had it without anesthesia, for two reasons. number one, because he didn't want to give power to mike pence, even for a short time, for real. number two, he didn't want to be "the butt of a joke" on late-night tv. [ laughter ] i have to admit, it does give me some satisfaction, as a late night talk show host to know that he opted to stay awake while they augered his innards with a sewer snake -- [ laughter ]

-- specifically because he didn't want us making fun of it. i feel good, and i also feel cheated. because when a president, especially this president, gets a clan copy, it is my duty -- that's right, my duty -- to make jokes about it. [ cheers and applause ] so, to make up for what i am contractually and ethically obligated to deliver, it's time for some trump colonoscopy jokes. [ cheers and applause ] they're a few years old, but i think you're going to like them. all right. here we go. jonathan, i'm going to need you. the president went to walter reed hospital for a colonoscopy today. it took a while because the doctor kept accidentally sticking the camera in his mouth. [ rim shot ] [ applause ] as soon as they turned the camera on, trump turned around and said "hey doc, how are the ratings?" [ rim shot ] the president's doctor decided to schedule the procedure after the white house toilet killed itself. [ rim shot ] it was a good thing trump had

this done, because they found two cancerous polyps. [ laughter ] removed immediately. [ rim shot ] the doctors said the hardest thing about giving trump a colonoscopy was getting the camera around mike pence's nose. [ rim shot ] but trump thought it went great. overall. he got a perfect report. afterwards the whole medical team kept saying, "wow, what an unbelievable [ bleep ] hole." [ rim shot ] thank you. that felt good. [ cheers and applause ] hey, you know what? he gave us a colonoscopy for four years, it's about time we gave one back. today, by the way, is national voter registration day. california, as of yesterday is a vote-by-mail state. which means that all voters here get a ballot mailed to them, whether they request it or not. republicans oppose this. they are concerned that if states send ballots to all eligible voters, those voters might vote. which could be a disaster for their party. [ laughter ] guillermo, did you watch the football game last night? >> guillermo: of course. >> jimmy: guillermo's a big dallas cowboys fan. the cowboys won, they beat

philadelphia. and after the game, the quarterback for the eagles, jalen hurts, put the loss and moving on from the loss in perspective, using terms i've not heard from a professional athlete before. >> gonna learn from it, learn from it, be a better team from it, i believe that. i truly believe that. you know, you take your dues. you don't sit there and look at it, you flush it and move on. we're gonna flush it and move on. >> jimmy: speak for yourself. by the way, imagine losing a game, getting crushed really by your arch-rival, and you head back to the shower and put on a beautiful pink sports jacket with a rose in the lapel. that's a lot of panache. this was good too. one of the unexpected delights of this nfl season has been watching eli and peyton manning call the games monday night on espn2. last night, eli shared a colorful anecdote about playing in philly where the fans are very tough that may have been a bit too colorful. >> you go to philly, you're

getting the double bird right away from a 9-year-old kid. i would give the bird -- can you do that? i'm sure you can blur that out, right? all right, all right, sorry. earlier i gave the double bird, i guess that was frowned upon, i apologize. if i offended anybody -- that's what a 9-year-old did to me, i thought i could do it back. >> jimmy: two wrongs don't make a right, eli, you know that. [ laughter ] for those of you who do not watch football on mondays, you may be interested to learn that we now know the identity of the 30 men who will compete for the chance to become bachelorette michelle's future former fiancé. abc unveiled the cast for a new season of "the bachelorette." the contestants represent every kind of american man, from wellness coach to yoga teacher. to well innocenceness coach. [ laughter ] this year, they're being conservative. they whittled it down to only two brandons. who, as you can see, are doing the exact same pose. which is so brandon. [ laughter ]

they put out biographies for the guys. some of them are confusing. this one stood out in particular. chris g. is a motivational speaker from canada. he loves skate brooms and performs spoken word poetry. to me, any room where spoken word poetry is being performed is an escape room. chris g. also has two cats, named "cat" and "small cat." honestly, i hope he wins so we find out what they'd name their kids. [ laughter ] as usual, many of the guys, have similar professions and with that said it's time to play "medical sales rep or personal trainer?" [ cheers and applause ] it's an easy game. i'll show you one of the contestants, you will guess whether that man is a medical sales rep or a personal trainer. got it? gee guillermo? >> guillermo: i got it. >> jimmy: okay. number one. medical sales rep or personal trainer? oh, we have a split. and it is? medical sales rep. next, medical sales rep or personal trainer?

you say personal trainer? they say, yes, correct. very good. [ cheers and applause ] medical sales rep or personal trainer? and he is a -- medical sales rep. [ cheers and applause ] medical sales rep or personal trainer? yeah, has to be a personal trainer. that is correct. [ applause ] i believe we have one more. medical sales rep or personal trainer? the audience says medical sales rep. he says? what? what the hell? [ laughter ] don't these nerds get rejected enough in real life? [ laughter ] elon musk is the world's richest person again according to "forbes." the richest part has been verified, the person part has not. [ laughter ] he's reported to be worth over $200 billion. elon musk has more money than greece. the country, not the musical.

the musical too, he has more money than both of them. the news comes days after he split from the mother of his child, the magician grimes, who is now his "spacex." did somebody go aww? [ laughter ] elon musk beats out jeff bezos. the bible says it's easier for a camel to pass through the eye of a needle than for a rich man to enter the kingdom of god. now elon is working on shrinking camels. [ laughter ] speaking of the bible, tucker carlson worked himself up into a religious lather last night, over a covid-themed nativity scene. >> you can pick up this masked nativity scene online. look closely. it features mary, joseph, and the baby jesus all with their faces covered. as they should be even in a manger. they're masked. just like you are. [ laughter ] >> jimmy: i guess it was a slow ourage day, i don't know. maybe there were no gay superheroes for tuck tore scream

about. but he was fired up and got 18 i can't remember and more preposterous from there. >> for 15 bucks at etsy, you can buy a patron saint of staying at home prayer candle. we read the reviews. love it! exclamation point. i may have to set up an altar to place it on! exclamation point. there's a new convert. i put this in my office, i work in public health and this makes me smile every time i look at it. of course it makes you smile. virtue is its own reward. >> jimmy: like this is some kind of anti-jesus uprising on etsy. the fact that these candles with the famous people on them have been around for years, you could get bill nye the science guy, judge judy, keith urban, lizzo, the golden girls, there's even one of me. [ cheers and applause ] by the way, tucker, if you

continue and search your own name on etsy, you would find this product, a tucker carlson is a douchebag shirt. [ applause ] 4.9 stars, congratulations. it's interesting to hear these guys talk about covid as if everything they said about it hasn't been wrong since day one. that's how it goes, i guess. to remind us of who said what, we take a look back at what was in the news a year ago. it's time for "this week in covid history." >> this week in covid history, as we end september 2020, the men who would be president have a "get to know you." [ cross talk ] >> why wouldn't you answer that question? >> the question is -- >> radical left -- >> the question is -- >> will you shut up, man? >> someone had to say it. next, it's time to play everyone's favorite game. >> do you condemn white

supremacists? >> are you willing tonight to condemn white supremacists? >> proud boys, stand back and stand by. [ buzzer ] >> the answer was "yes." but winning isn't everything. >> by every measure we won the debate easily last night. >> let's double-check that measure. >> this was the most chaotic presidential debate i've ever seen. >> what a dark event we have just witnessed. >> a low point in american political discourse. >> that was a [ bleep ] show. >> and the [ bleep ] show must go on. it's party time. as the president throws a rose-colored hoosegow where the enthusiasm is positively contagious. >> mike lee testing positive. >> okay, but that's just one person. >> kellyanne conway testing positive for covid-19. >> thom tillis tested positive. >> reverend jen since positive. >> chris christie hospitalized. >> tested positive for the coronavirus. >> oh, well. so long as the president is --

>> this is a fox news alert. president trump just tweeted moments ago that he and the first lady have tested positive for the coronavirus. >> well, he beat syphilis, he's sure to beat this. >> i'm going to walter reed hospital. i think i'm doing very well. i just want to tell you that i'm starting to feel good. and we have enthusiasm like probably nobody's ever had. our people that love the job we're doing -- >> i am doing bigly. i feel very very very very very very -- >> he's fine, what a relief. thanks, satan. this has been "this week in covid history." [ cheers and applause ] >> jimmy: we have a good show for you tonight. from "the morning show," mark duplass is here. we have music from angels and airwaves. and we'll be back rightly with gabrielle union. so stick around!

[ laughter ] >> listen, you need to do a lot more inspecting of male bodies. >> jimmy: yeah. you know what that's on my new year's resolution list. >> you got it, you got it. >> jimmy: your wife, katie aselton, very talented, plays your fiancee on the show. your wife in real life playing your fiancee on the show. >> yeah. >> jimmy: i assume covid had something to do with that, yes? >> yeah, we were lucky. you know, it was the height of covid. she was supposed to be on another movie. she fell out. we got a score in getting her on the show. but there was an extra complication, which is that my character is supposed to be making out with my fiancee's character on the show. in the middle of covid and touch each other, much less make out. the producers were thinking, how are we going to find someone to safely make out with mark? we totally scored with katie. everybody was happy. except for the night before we're about to shoot, katie and i are going to bed, and we're

like, wait a minute. so we need to play a couple who has just recently met, who's desperately excited to be kissing each other, with fireworks everywhere. [ laughter ] we've been married for 20 years. our kisses don't look like that anymore. [ laughter ] so i was like, well, that's really a problem. >> jimmy: yeah. >> i did what any husband and scene partner would do. i said, listen, you just need to replace me in your head with whatever you need to do in that moment. close your eyes and pull one of those ryans, a reynolds or a gosling, maybe there's a hemsworth or somebody, don't tell me who it is, don't ever tell me who it is. >> jimmy: what if it's a carell with his rippling body? [ laughter ] [ applause ] >> it could be. >> jimmy: i don't want to throw things out there. >> i really wish you hadn't said that. [ laughter ] >> jimmy: reading into this conversation, when you do have a love scene or make-out scene

with an actress, you're super excited to do it. >> yeah. >> jimmy: yeah. >> it's usually a really dieting thing. but this one -- >> jimmy: everyone says the opposite. >> oh, you know -- >> jimmy: that's a lie? >> in my opinion, to be a professional actor, you have to say, oh, a kissing scene, it's like a fight scene, it's choreography, there's nothing romantic about it. and that is the right thing to say. but the truth of the matter is -- things happen and people get excited. >> jimmy: you're saying you've been excited, you've been physically excited? dare i say erect? during a scene? [ laughter ] >> emotionally, yes. i will give -- >> jimmy: emotionally erect? >> i'll give in to emotionally, yes. [ laughter ] listen, surprises happen on sets. anything can happen. >> jimmy: wow. >> that's the way it is, yes. >> jimmy: wow, that's the footage we want to see at the end of the movie where everything is fun and there's all these bloopers. then there's, you know, bob with a boner. [ laughter ]

>> right. >> jimmy: great title for a show, by the way. >> yes. >> jimmy: you are -- are you a good kisser? do you feel like you deliver in those situations? >> humble beginnings. my first kiss was a little bit of a problem. >> jimmy: how old were you? >> i was like 13. i think i was in seventh grade. you know, they're always kind of set up at that time. you know what's going to happen. we got tickets to see "who framed roger rabbit?" mark and shannon going to the movie theater. i know which seats we're going to sit in. i've been practicing in the mirror for four weeks. this is before tiktok and youtube instructional videos. i'm like, just -- i was just told, move the tongue in really fast circles consistently, and this will be a successful kiss. nothing to do with chemistry. just a sporting event. [ laughter ] so -- and so i go in, i thought i performed really, really well.

and -- and the next day at school i show up. and everybody's like, what's up, mark the shark? i'm like, what did you say? what's up, mark the shark? and shannon had apparently told everyone that i bit her tongue. >> jimmy: oh. did you? >> i don't think i did. i don't know why she would lie. listen, i believe women, okay? this is 2021. so i have to really believe at this point, i must have done something wrong. >> jimmy: well, you hear the phrase "bite your tongue." you don't know which one they mean. you mean mine? you mean hers? it doesn't make sense. >> the worst part is i still haven't seen "who framed roger rabbit?" i'm too emotionally triggered, i can't get there. >> jimmy: you worked a lot over covid. little about this movie.d a - explain the idea behind this movie. >> i made a movie called "language lessons." two months into the pandemic.

we were struggling. am i going to bake bread? i'd watched the '90s comedyes with my kids. i thought, i'll brush up on my spanish. i started taking online lessons with this institute in guatemala. and weirdly enough, i started developing kind of a really deeper emotional connection with this spanish teacher over 2d facetime. wow, this is interesting in a time when we're feeling isolated and alone, i'm developing a bigger connection. so i called my friend, natalie morales, a wonderful actor/filmmaker, made a movie called "plan "b."" if you haven't seen it, it's incredible. we joined forces and wrote an outline in a week, shot in five days, had a movie four weeks later. >> jimmy: the movie is about your relationship with this translator? or teacher? >> yes, it's a platonic love story. i really like the idea of putting something out there at this time that said, we can really connect through video communication, even in a time where we can't be together in

person. but perhaps more importantly, and my wife katie will tell you this, i have sort of an obsession with shooting movies in the houses we live in. and we were about to sell this house. and i was like, i have to shoot a movie in this house before we sell it, get my money's worth out of this house. >> jimmy: really? >> yes. that was really the main motivation, yes. >> jimmy: what a beautiful sentiment. it sounded like a really lovely film, then you turned it into a tax incentive. [ laughter ] >> really, that's what art is all about, at the end of the day. a good write-off. >> jimmy: that sounds like a good date movie for us, guillermo. what is the movie called? >> "language lessons." it's in theaters now, out for rental in a couple of weeks. >> jimmy: and of course "the morning show." new episodes fridays on apple tv plus. mark duplass, everybody.
