is our report for spencer christian, larry biel. all of us here, i'm dan ashley. we appreciate your time. right now on jimmy kimmel josh brolin. have a great night. look at that beautiful >> lou: from hollywood, it's "jimmy kimmel live"! tonight -- josh brolin -- clarence maclin -- and music from raye. with cleto and the cletones. and now, jimmy kimmel! [ cheers and applause ] ♪

>> jimmy: welcome. very nice. that's very kind. i'm jimmy, i'm the host of the show. thank you for watching. [ cheers and applause ] please. thank you for joining us here in hollywood, where we're wrapping up 2024. this is our last show of this stupid year. [ laughter ] and we are completely full of cookies. oh, my god. there is so much sugar in this building and in my body right now. it's like the great british bake-off. [ laughter ] christmas is, as i have to tell my kids multiple times a day, twelve days away. we had our secret santa gift exchange at the office this afternoon. a secret santa gift is a great reminder that even the people you spend 40 hours a week with have no idea who you are or what you like. [ laughter ] and then after the show, we're having our staff holiday party.

[ whoops ] attendance at the party is voluntary, except for one guy. there's only one person who is required to attend our party this year. do you know who that is, guillermo? >> guillermo: who, jimmy? >> jimmy: who do you think it is? >> guillermo: me? [ laughter ] >> jimmy: yeah, see? >> guillermo: oh! [ cheers and applause ] >> jimmy: guillermo ghosted our party last year. even though it was planned a month in advance, and we held it right across the street, he went straight home. >> guillermo: yeah, that's right. >> jimmy: what was your excuse again? >> guillermo: i didn't have a babysitter. >> jimmy: didn't have a babysitter. yet there are no plus ones and your wife doesn't work, right? >> guillermo: no -- no. [ laughter ] >> jimmy: right now in front of everyone, i'd like you to swear -- do you swear not only you will show up to the party tonight, but you'll leave until i leave, we'll go together? >> guillermo: all right. i swear i will go to the party and i will stay out until his ass leave. [ cheers and applause ] >> jimmy: feliz navidad. >> guillermo: feliz navidad, yeah!

>> jimmy: if you'll indulge me, i want to lay out the rules for the party for my coworkers. if your drunk husband tells me you need a raise, you're fired. [ laughter ] if guillermo says do a shot, you do a shot. [ cheers ] please don't ask me to be on your podcast, i'm not doing it. [ laughter ] that's all. anything else you want to do is fine. the best part about the holiday party is, inevitably, one person will do something that will haunt them for many years to come. like the time one of our producers, i won't mention his name, but this is what he did. [ laughter ] >> jimmy: yeah. that's patrick. [ cheers and applause ] he got up on the bar, removed his shirt for all to behold. who will that party person be? we'll find out. you know, i've been thinking. we know next year is going to be challenging. we are about to endure a lot of gaslighting, greed, lying, ignorance, possibly even the measles and the mumps. [ laughter ] so let's fill this christmas with generosity and goodness. let's be nice to our friends, to

strangers, get ahead of us in traffic, maybe spend a little extra time, give our spouses a back rub. maybe have some snacks for the amazon guy when he shows up. [ laughter ] let's deck those halls and lube up those chimneys because santa is coming to town. and he might not be coming back! ever again. [ cheers and applause ] which brings us to donald trump. he got yet another early christmas gift today. he was named "time" magazine's person of the year. that's the cover. sadly, there's no one left to roll it up and spank him with it. [ laughter ] may elon will do it for him, i don't know. [ laughter ] according to "time's" website, person of the year is bestowed upon "a person, group, or concept that had the biggest impact for good or for ill." which that's him all right. [ laughter ] it was a no-brainer. in every sense of the word. over the years, trump has had many ups and downs when it comes to "time" magazine. in 2013 he wrote "the time magazine list of the 100 most influential people is a joke and

a stunt of a magazine that will, like newsweek, soon be dead." and "just took a look at time magazine, looks really flimsy like a free handout at a parking lot. the sad end is coming, just like newsweek!" but in 2015, when they put him on the cover, that changed. "on the cover of time magazine, a great honor!" but then when they didn't make him person of the year -- "i told you time magazine would never pick me as person of the year despite being the big favorite. they picked person who is ruining germany." then the next year -- "thank you to time magazine and financial times for naming me 'person of the year' a great honor." sadly, the era of good feelings did not last. "time magazine called to say that i was probably going to be named, "man (person) of the year," like last year, but i would have to agree to an interview and a major photo shoot. i said probably is no good and took a pass. thanks anyway!" and then, this was today, when trump celebrated his person of the yearhood at the new york stock exchange. [ bell ringing ]

>> jimmy: ding ding ding ding ding ding ding! he jammed his little finger on that bell like it was the diet coke button in the oval office. [ laughter ] that's how long my son would ring the bell, he's seven years old. [ laughter ] just a very stable, very even -- some say stable genius of a man. and then, since he was back in the big apple trump treated a floor full of stockbrokers to a classic the timeless story of the old lady and the apples. >> people can't afford their groceries. and they're going to be affording their groceries very soon. i tell the story about a woman who -- an old woman, old woman, no money, went to a grocery store. had three apples. she put them down on the counter, and she looked and she saw the price and she said, "would you excuse me?" and she walked one of the apples back to the refrigerator and came back to pay for the two apples. and she left with two apples. and the woman at the counter said that was so sad.

and when i heard about the story i said, that should never happen in america. and it's not going to happen in america. >> jimmy: yeah, and it never happened in the first place in america. [ laughter ] i will never get tired of hearing that story. and he will never get tired of telling that story. that is donald trump's "free bird" right now. meanwhile, president biden was in a gift-giving mood today. he commuted the sentences for almost 1,500 americans serving time for non-violent crimes. it is the biggest single act of clemency in modern american history. before this, the biggest act of clemency was on election night. november 5th. [ laughter ] joe biden is handing out pardons like they're werther's originals. [ laughter ] he has no more malarkey to give. crime is getting more complicated. we have news of yet another cyber attack on another company. this one on, of all places, krispy kreme. according to a filing with the s.e.c., the online systems of the krispy kreme doughnut company were disrupted by hackers late last month. which is scary. i mean, if the doughnuts aren't safe, are any of us safe?

[ laughter ] why is krispy kreme even online? you know, when i was a kid we had donuts, and we didn't get them from the internet. we got them from this chubby little guy with a hitler moustache. [ laughter ] he'd get up before dawn, squirt the jelly in it himself. and why did this man have a hitler mustache at a time that was much chronologically closer to world war ii? we had no idea. [ laughter ] and we couldn't find out, because we didn't have the internet back then. [ laughter ] and the doughnuts were still great. maybe even better. the end of the year is a time to reflect, a time to look back on not just the good times, but also the moments when we came up short. and with that in mind, it's time to fondly recall some of the most memorable recalls of 2024. [ cheers and applause ] ♪ >> jimmy: in february, bissell recalled more than 140,000 vacuum cleaners. because the vacuum's battery pack can overheat and burst into flames. march, trader joe's recalled almost 62,000 pounds of steamed

chicken soup dumplings that may have been contaminated with hard plastic from a permanent marker pen. also in march, la fiesta ground cinnamon was recalled for potential contamination with lead. >> ay caramba. >> jimmy: si. [ laughter ] april -- tide, ace, gain and ariel brand laundry pods were recalled. the outer packaging meant to prevent access to the contents can split open near the zipper track. which can lead to accidental exposure and poisoning. also in april, tesla recalled its new cybertruck to replace the accelerator pedal to prevent the pad from dislodging, resulting in a loss of control. >> elon is a dick. [ laughter ] >> jimmy: july, claire's recalls 100% polyester halloween witch hats. the hats violate federal flammability requirements, posing a risk of burn injuries to consumers. >> flaming witch hats! [ laughter ] >> jimmy: and various ankle deli

meats were recalled after multiple people died and dozens were hospitalized as a result of listeria traced to boar's head liverwurst. ♪ liverwurst is disgusting in the first place ♪ >> jimmy: august, perdue frozen chicken tenders, recalled because they may contain metal wire. and in november, grimway farms issued a massive recall on organic baby carrots that may have been contaminated with e. coli. >> guillermo: oh [ bleep ].

o'brien's, irish bar that takes everybody in. i would go in there and get on the bar and drop my pants. >> jimmy: that would be your final stop. >> yeah, and everybody clapped and it was all good. we had a great night. >> jimmy: i have to say, i knew you'd led a colorful life. i did not know it was the 256 box of crayolas. i didn't know there were that many colors -- >> there was a truckload of crayolas. >> jimmy: there are some crazy, crazy stories. i know you've talked about a lot of them, a lot of places. i do want to ask you about trying lsd when you were 13 years old. [ laughter ] [ cheers and applause ] >> let's just be quiet for a second. >> jimmy: how does that happen? >> i don't know how it happens, man. your parents, you know, where are the patterns? parents? you know? do they give it to me? did they misplace a sugar cube? i don't know. i was with my buddies who i grew up with in santa barbara, called the cito rats.

it was a group of like the brah boys in meruba. or in hawaii. we were the cito rats in southern california. we started lsd very early on. that turned into a band called rich kids on lsd, rko. [ laughter ] which was a very famous punk band who did world tours and everything. if you talked to eddy vetter, chris cornell back in the day when chris was still alive, all of these people were inspired by rko. rko never got their time, they were doing too much lsd. [ laughter ] but yeah, it was a good -- it was a good time. and i had a great trip. i mean, i had the most -- kind of amazing -- 13 years old. your brain is still developing. it's probably not the best time to start that drug. >> jimmy: yeah. >> but i really had an amazing time. like, i saw a fireplace talking to me. it said some nice things. i liked what he said. i didn't dislike what he said. yeah, it was like caressing. it was wisdom.

and then i did -- that night somebody said -- we went through the whole thing, and i was like, wow, revelation and all of that. then somebody that night, because it was the cito rats, said, "we should do it again." >> jimmy: that night? >> yeah, like a drunk, you do alcohol, let's go to the bar and do it again. the next night and the next night and the next. i was in the habit of doing things again. that trip was not so good. >> jimmy: no nice conversation? >> no nice conversation. >> jimmy: with the fireplace? >> yeah, it was a lot of fire but not -- [ laughter ] >> jimmy: if you could go back now, would you dissuade that 13-year-old from doing that? >> you can't put me in that position. because it's like every 13-year-old watching your show, because it's your biggest demographic -- [ laughter ] do not do lsd! do not do lsd, children! it was the greatest thing i ever did.

remember that night that you and i went -- no, just kidding. [ laughter ] >> jimmy: that was you? >> that was me. i was the fire. >> jimmy: i also knew you grew up on this ranch, you had wild, exotic animals that your mom had. i did not know that your mom had full command over those animals and could tell the animals to attack you. >> no, the -- you know, the mom -- it's funny because i mentioned her, and somebody said to me, this was the greatest love letter of a mother i've ever read. which i thought was probably the greatest compliment i got. because the stories are severe. she was a severe woman. she was a force of nature. she couldn't drive any less than 100 miles an hour. everything that she did was big. but we used to -- she used to put it in the car, we'd from baton rouge -- from california to baton rouge. she got a call this one time. "look, we have a gorilla that won't get in the truck because we need to transport the gorilla." it's a silverback, 550-pound gorilla. my mother's 5'2", blond hair, 105 pounds, right?

so we're driving. my brother and i, we get to bratton rouge, get out of the truck. see has this kind of deep, texas voice. "where is he?" they go, "jane, he's over here." she said, "okay, open the cage." it was a double door. they opened one door. and she goes, "go ahead, open the second door." "no, no, no, he's hurt other people, he's hurt other animals." "open the second door." they finally open the second door, and the gorilla pumps his chest and does all that kind of masculine whatever, showmanship. and my mom goes," stop it!" [ laughter ] and the gorilla literally, in the midst of doing this, goes -- huh? [ laughter ] this is a god's honest truth, man. there's a truck over there. and they open this slide thing this entrance into the back of the truck. and she goes, "you get in there right now." and i've heard this my whole life. i'm like, you better [ bleep ] get in there. [ laughter and applause ]

and, you know -- went from this to, like, watching her. [ laughter and applause ] totally confused and all that. >> jimmy: oh, my gosh. >> then you write a book about it. >> jimmy: you have to write a book about that. in fact, there are only two pictures in the book. one of them is you and your mom. right there, you and your mom. jane from tarzan, perhaps. >> there you go. >> jimmy: and then there's a photograph -- >> i just put that together. jane, tarzan. >> jimmy: you never thought of that? >> no, man. i'm a slow guy. >> jimmy: and we have now another photo. i have a bigger version of it, let me show you here. this is you with, correct me if i have any of this wrong, john travolta. kelly preston. brando. james brolin, your dad. barbara. and who's that lady? >> it's a woman that brando had met on the internet when he was going under a different profile of a 15-year-old asian boy. [ laughter ]

>> jimmy: oh. and what were you guys doing? was this a dinner party? >> it -- yeah, i asked her, "wow, how is this?" she told me the story about how, for a year, she thought he was an asian boy. "why were you talking to a 15-year-old asian boy? i don't understand." then he revealed himself as marlon brando. "i'm not an asian boy." [ laughter ] >> jimmy: are you telling me marlon brando invented catfishing? [ laughter ] that is unbelievable. we barely had the internet. >> i know, it's true. and that dinner, it was amazing because everybody kind of asked the questions that you don't ask famous people. you were like, "what was it like?" what was this movie like? and he would go -- he would sit there, he was very brando. "oh, that movie i did, it was like -- it was a cable car, it was a cable car movie." "streetcar named desire?" [ laughter ]

and we go -- he'd go, "yeah, that's it, that's it. there was a woman with these really long nose hairs, i couldn't stop looking at her nose hairs." "vivian lee had long nose hairs?" i didn't want know that. i didn't want know that. >> jimmy: oh, my god. we're going to take a break. there's a lot more. this is the book. it's called "from under the truck." josh bolin is with us.

>> i didn't know, actually, how many memoirs are written not by the person who it's about. >> jimmy: you didn't? >> isn't it a memoir? isn't it my version of my life? >> jimmy: i agree. if i was writing a book, i would write it myself. >> you would write it yourself. do you have confidence in yourself as a writer? >> jimmy: i do, yes. >> you do? >> jimmy: yeah. >> me too, there you go. [ laughter ] >> jimmy: how did you get your confidence? >> i wrote a book. i talked to dave grohl who wrote his book. matthew mcconaughey very sweetly gave me a blush. >> jimmy: he did, yeah. >> very sweet. he read the book through and through and gave me a few notes which i wasn't sure about, but they ended up to be good. he wrote good notes. i've written so much. i've written thousands and thousands of pages through my life. i have 91 full journals. i've been writing since i was 8. it's meant the most to me. when you write and put into a

corner and gather dust, that's one thing. when you have an intention to publish, it's something else. that book was probably 450 pages. then i started kind of slashing. and then what turned out was a book that was very mother heavy and full of lsd trips. >> jimmy: yeah. it's not your typical, usual, hollywood, i mean we saw marlon brando, but name-dropping stories that people do enjoy and they want to hear, but it's not like that at all. >> no. it's -- i mean, there's a story in there that i wrote about a certain human being that i had met that told me -- it was in austin, texas -- he told me about "no country for old men," the book, had just came out. "this book came out, you should go get it." [ applause ] which turned into a great movie, and i got to know cormack after that. i love this guy who told me, i won't say who it was. but i was trying to impress him. i wrote that story about this writer who i was talking to, who i continue to love. but i didn't like that i was name dropping, so i turned it into a satire of a famous guy trying to impress another infamous guy.

so -- then it goes into that. and it's like, you kind of -- you have two famous people together who are trying to do this thing, and then the end of the story turns into what really matters. >> jimmy: why don't you use the names of people? do you feel like it's their story as well? >> i feel like it's -- you know, i understand when people -- like if i read cher's book, i want to know about gregg allman, what happened during those nine days. >> jimmy: right. >> i want to know, know what i mean? >> jimmy: yeah, sure. >> didn't work out, how did you have a kid in nine days? i just want to know. [ laughter ] i get it. when i'm 70, maybe i'll do that. for new, i don't -- i still have a -- i feel, a healthy paranoia about celebrity and what they can do. >> jimmy: okay, i think it as healthy paranoia, yeah. i don't know if you're aware of this, our next guest is in a great movie called "sing sing, also spent some time behind bars. >> yeah. >> jimmy: how many times were you behind bars? >> what do you mean also spent time behind bars? [ laughter ] >> jimmy: i mean -- more times than you, probably. a few more times than him,

probably. >> no, he was my cellmate. isn't that crazy? and we're on the same show, how weird is that? no. >> jimmy: the difference is he's a movie star now, after that. you were a movie star before. >> and i [ bleep ]ed it up, yes. [ laughter ] >> jimmy: what is it like to be a movie star in prison? >> it -- i -- [ laughter ] i was in juvenile hall. i wasn't a movie star. then i started going to jail later in life. and i had done "the goonies." i'd done a couple of things. i think enough time passed where people didn't go, hey -- i know people that have been in jail, they got recognized in jail. i never got recognized in jail. i was just a jailee. i was one of them. >> jimmy: uh-huh? >> i was -- >> jimmy: is that why you decided -- >> i'm a character actor. if i were not, maybe i'd be like, "oh, my god, matthew mcconaughey, what are you doing in jail with us?" [ laughter ] >> jimmy: "i'm here to give you notes." >> whereas me, when i went in

there, they went "josh brolin, welcome back." >> jimmy: it's great to have you. >> thanks, thank you. >> jimmy: it's always great to have you. the book is a good one, get it for christmas.
