i'm your guest host, anthony anderson. [ cheers and applause ] thank you for joining us on a big day in hollywood. the emmy nominations came out this morning. i've never understood why they announce the nominations so damn early. who are they, the cops? [ laughter ] it's like ah, ah, ah, open up! we're here to praise you for your outstanding work in a comedy ensemble!" the most nominated show this year is "succession." [ cheers and applause ] or as i like to call it, "white-ish." [ laughter ] but the really big news around the office today is that this show, "jimmy kimmel live!" was nominated for outstanding variety talk series. [ cheers and applause ] ♪ yes, it's that magical day when

the staff imagines what it will be like to win before remembering they're gonna be crushed by john oliver's dainty british hands. [ laughter ] i actually heard "jimmy kimmel live!" was not gonna get nominated by the academy, but the academy saw me host last night and called an emergency meeting. [ cheers and applause ] and on top of the show's nomination, jimmy was also nominated for "highest dude on a jet ski right now." [ laughter ] [ applause ] but in all seriousness, jimmy, congratulations. [ applause ] there are, like, six late night talk show hosts, and you made the top five. [ laughter ] you did it, buddy. and look, i don't want to bring the mood down, but i do have a

bone to pick with the academy. you know who did not get nominated for a primetime emmy this morning? america's sweetheart, me! [ laughter ] that's right, me, anthony anderson. and neither did my show, "black-ish" or my co-star, tracee ellis ross! can you believe that [ bleep ], mama? >> anthony: look, i'm not saying the voters were stupid for not nominating me or "black-ish" or tracee. i'm saying they're racist. [ laughter ] and you know what did get nominated for best comedy? "barry," a show about a murderer! and "what we do in the shadows," a show about vampires who murder people. [ laughter ] and "only murders in the building," a show about a podcast about a murder! so "black-ish" wasn't nominated. but we've been named the lead suspect in all of those white people murder shows.

[ laughter ] [ applause ] to add insult to injury, look who got nominated for an emmy for outstanding actor in a short form comedy or drama series. a guy named "anthony a. anderson." the "a" stands for "ain't me!" [ laughter ] but whatever, i don't care. i don't need the emmy. you know who else never won an emmy? nelson mandela. i think. [ laughter ] can somebody google that [ bleep ] real quick and see if that's the case? at least i'll always have my oscar for "kangaroo jack." [ cheers and applause ] they can never take that away from me! right, guillermo? >> you're totally right.

>> anthony: my man! you know what else they can't take away from me? my greatest tv moment, the time i got a shout out from the one and only judge mathis. hey, man, he has one of the best shows on television. >> no shows have done as much as "black-ish" in terms of dealing with social issues. i want you all to thank anthony. [ applause ] >> you're not anthony. what are you clapping for? [ laughter ] [ applause ]

>> anthony: judge mathis may need to lay off the hennessy, but i appreciate his kind words. and wait a second, look who is in our audience tonight. it's none other than judge mathis himself. [ applause ] judge, you got one of the best courtroom shows on television. give him a hand, everybody! [ cheers and applause ] ♪ yeah, look at you. judge, get you some sun while you're out here, by the way. [ laughter ] we may also need to get judge mathis down to washington. there was another january 6th hearing today. the select committee focused on "the craziest meeting of the trump presidency" where trump considered seizing voting machines. personally, i think this was the craziest meeting of the trump presidency.

[ laughter ] there they are, kanye and cray-zay. [ laughter ] we also heard testimony from a former member of the oath keepers, who apparently thought the hearing was taking place at a jimmy john's. [ laughter ] the big bombshell today was that donald trump tried to call a witness who was supposed to testify before the committee, but they did not pick up. can you imagine how good it would feel to look at your phone, see "donald trump calling," and send that [ bleep ] to voicemail? [ laughter ] [ applause ] according to a new poll, nearly half of republican primary voters don't want donald trump to be president in 2024.

[ cheers and applause ] of the top six candidates in the poll, four are men, one is a woman and one is whatever species ted cruz is. [ laughter ] here's how the poll broke down if the republican primary was tomorrow, 49% want trump, 25% would vote for ron desantis, 14% chose gargamel, 9% said polio, and 3% would vote for hitler's ghost. [ laughter ] [ applause ] guillermo, isn't "hitler's ghost" what you call your mother-in-law? >> only sometimes. [ laughter ] >> anthony: you guys know former football star herschel walker? >> yeah! donald trump's only black friend? [ laughter ]

well, walker is running for senate in georgia and stuck his cleat in his mouth while trying to explain how the air pollution in china is bad for america. >> if we don't control the air, all the good air decide to float over to china, bad air. so when china gets all the good air, their bad air got to move. [ laughter ] so it moves over to our good air space. and now we got to clean that back up. [ laughter ] >> anthony: what the [ bleep ] did he just say? [ laughter ] and with that, o.j. simpson is now officially the second most dangerous former nfl running back on the planet. and while yes, that was a terrible political speech, it made a great stand-up set. >> so when china gets all the

good air, their bad air gotta move. [ laughter ] ♪ [ applause ] >> anthony: but when herschel performs, they call it "slow time at the apollo." i'd like to take a quick moment to recognize some creativity that happened north of the border in canada. because i think this might be history's funniest way to mess with your neighbor. burlington resident linda lee says her morning routine has been disrupted by a display that cannot be missed from their kitchen window. it is decorated with various sex toys stuck to its roof. it was put there by a neighbor. it has negatively impacted their lives and their social lives, putting a damper on her mother's

91st birthday. [ applause ] >> anthony: happy birthday, linda. go grab yourself a butt plug! [ laughter ] and one more thing. while i may not have been nominated for an emmy this morning, did i mention i wasn't nominated for an emmy this morning, mama? >> yes, yes, yes. >> anthony: not only was i overlooked for my acting, i was also overlooked for my game show and hosting. "to tell the truth" was not nominated which, to tell the truth is a bunch of [ bleep ]. [ laughter ] but i've got a new game show coming to abc next month that i think would really bring folks together. >> from the mind of anthony anderson comes the hot new game show where self-proclaimed allies get the chance to -- >> go for! >> black lives, a, exist, b, matter, c, drink scissor, or, d,

dougie? >> b, matter, final answer. >> that is correct, kevin! yeah! >> what the dog? [ laughter ] >> but that is very incorrect. it's what we call cultural appropriation. [ buzzer ] get the -- up outta here. >> will these well-intentioned white people have what it takes? >> brittney, you wrote the post that says omg, 12 years a slave is my favorite movie ever. >> this is the star of your favorite movie ever. what is his name? >> i'm going to use my white privilege. >> of course you are. let's literally give brittney the answer! what's his name? >> chewbacca enchilada. >> get the [ bleep ] outta here. >> which of these caucasians has their eyes on the prize?

>> what's wrong with your head? [ laughter ] >> you know, i would like to phone a black friend. >> do you have a black friend? [ laughter ] >> i would like to phone a black work acquaintance. >> okay. let's get your co-worker troy on the phone. [ phone ringing ] hello? >> troy, hey, it's anthony anderson for go for woke. i am here with keaton. >> who the [ bleep ] is keaton? >> we work together. i'm three cubicles over. >> oh, the mother [ bleep ] with the dreadlocks? >> that's the answer, yes! that is correct keaton.

[ laughter ] >> speaking of children and their age, how old were you when you started acting? because it's an interesting story about what you studied in school. >> yeah. i started in college actually.

i didn't really touch it until college. >> why college? how were you bit by the bug then? >> our freshman orientation i saw our school's improv troupe. and i said you're allowed to do that? and i signed up. and they allowed me to do that. >> and what -- [ laughter ] >> sorry. >> what were you studying in zoo in you went to kalamazoo college. >> and i was studying psychology. i tried to get this little extra degree in neuroscience, but turns out you have to be smart. >> yeah, yeah. a little bit. >> so didn't get that. got the psychology degree. and then somehow found my way here. >> okay. well, has any of your college studies helped you in your
