glover right now >> lou: from hollywood, it's "jimmy kimmel live"! tonight, rob mcelhenney, katy perry, and music from simple minds. with cleto and the cletones. and now, jimmy kimmel! [ cheers and applause ] ♪

>> jimmy: thank you. welcome, welcome. appreciate that. i'm jimmy, i'm the host. thanks for watching. thank you for joining us here in our hollywood studio. [ cheers and applause ] appreciate that. it is -- oh, we have so much to get to. another weird day in washington today where a man who does not believe in medical science may soon be in charge of medical science. robert kennedy jr., donald trump's pick to run the department of health and human services, faced the senate today. bob and his brainworm answered questions for three and a half hours. [ laughter ] yesterday his cousin, first cousin carolyn kennedy, daughter of jfk, made a video opposing his confirmation. and adding to the long list of crazy stories about this crazy person. >> his basement, his garage, his dorm room, were always the center of the action. where drugs were available, and he enjoyed showing off how he

put baby chickens and mice in a blender to feed to his hawks. >> jimmy: well that explains why he lost his job at jamba juice. [ laughter ] "he put baby chickens and mice in a blender to feed to his hawks." and guess what? not one of the 27 senators on the finance committee asked him about it. not one! we've reached the point where these cabinet picks are so nutty, the idea that one of them was making stuart little smoothies -- [ laughter ] -- doesn't even come up. they did grill him on the subject of abortion and vaccines, subjects on which he has very conveniently "evolved" since pledging allegiance to the cantaloupe in chief. [ laughter ] most of his defense today was some version of, "i didn't say the moderna vaccine turned kids gay, i said it turned some of them bisexual." [ laughter ] the hearing was rocky, to say the least. and not just because it sounds like he swallowed a bag of rocks. kennedy was accompanied by his wife, the actress cheryl hines,

who sat quietly behind her husband as he attempted to rewrite the story of his life. >> did you say exposure to pesticides causes children to become transgender? >> no, i never said that. >> did you write in your book, it's undeniable that african aids is an entirely different disease from western aids? yes or no, mr. kennedy? >> i'm not sure if i -- >> did you say lyme disease is a highly likely militarily engineered bioweapon? >> i probably did say that. [ laughter ] >> did you say that covid-19 targets black and white people but spared -- [ laughter ] >> jimmy: yeah, yeah. we got to get to the bottom of that. and then there was cheryl's tv husband from "curb your enthusiasm," bernie sanders -- [ laughter ] who, not only did he have a line of questioning, he brought visual aids.

>> you have started a group called the children's health defense. you're the originator. right now, as i understand it, on their website, they are selling what's called onesies. these are little things, clothing for babies. one of them is, "unvaxed, unafraid." next one is, "no vax, no problem." why are you supportive of this? >> i have nothing to -- >> are you supportive of these onesies? [ laughter ] >> jimmy: that's a question i never thought i'd hear bernie sanders ask. "are you supportive of these onesies?" [ laughter ] "and what is your position on binkies?" [ laughter ] rfk did not denounce the onesies, and i bet they sold a bunch of them because of this, too. they're $26 apiece, which that's a lot of profit. and it's also why i will be selling -- "are you supportive of these onesies" onesies. [ laughter ] for a limited time only. all proceeds go to me. [ applause ] it's unclear if rfk has the

votes to move out of the finance committee and on to a vote by the senate in full, but it appears that at least one prominent republican is bigly against him. >> rfk jr. is a democrat plant. a radical left liberal. i'd even take biden over junior, because our country would last about a year or two longer than it would with junior. it would collapse almost immediately. >> jimmy: what's that? [ laughter ] oh, that's something he said before he put him in charge of polio. now he's terrific. i have a theory. i think trump is secretly hoping the senate doesn't approve rfk. i think trump thinks he's nuts, but he promised him this job to get his endorsement. if the senate says no, he'll be like, "oh, well, i tried. on to dr. oz!" [ laughter ] barring that, we could have a health and human services secretary who puts easter animals in a blender paired up with a head of homeland security who shoots puppies and goats. [ laughter ] this is quite a farm old macdonald has put together for us. team trump is already in a big, self-made mess after that

poorly conceived order to pause funding on all federal grants and loans, which caused all hell to break loose. there was a tremendous amount of confusion and backlash. so much so, they had to do an about-face on that this afternoon. but they are sticking with their plan of offering most full-time government employees a buyout, if they voluntarily resign. the trump administration is offering millions of federal workers buyouts if they quit by february 6th, they will get full benefits and pay through september 30th. and if there's anybody you can trust to honor a deal, it's donald j. trump. [ laughter ] he'll probably pay them in melania meme coin. [ laughter ] i think it's interesting. could we make this offer to trump too? let's get him a shopping cart and give him 30 minutes to grab as much gold as he wants from fort knox. let him spend the next four years playing golf with kim jong-un. i'd be okay with that. [ laughter ] [ cheers and applause ] at his thrice-daily press conference today, trump detailed his administration's efforts to crack down on wasteful government spending.

>> we are merely looking at parts of the big bureaucracy where there has been tremendous waste and fraud and abuse. and that process, we identified and stopped $50 million being sent to gaza to buy condoms for hamas. [ laughter ] >> jimmy: condoms for hamas? they say it's the best way to keep the goats from getting pregnant over there. [ laughter ] we've identified and stopped $50 million to buy condoms for hamas. i have to say, whoever is writing his lies this time deserves a raise. they are hilarious. [ laughter ] money is a big thing for donald trump. after a long, one week of work, he spent some time playing golf monday at his club in miami. and he always seemed to me to be the kind of guy who, when he does leave a tip, makes a whole show of it to let everyone know how generous he is.

you know what i mean? >> here, take this and split it up among the guys. you can give the guys less money. you want to take it? >> jimmy: he's holding the money like it's a condom for hamas or something. [ laughter ] i wonder if i.c.e. has looked into the employees at any of the trump resorts yet. i'm sure they'll get to that soon. fair is fair! the deportation raids that are happening around the country are going just about as poorly as we expected they would. many u.s. citizens and even native americans have been erroneously hassled by i.c.e. imagine asking a native american are you here illegally? they're like, "no, but you're here illegally. you've been here illegally for 500 years!" [ laughter ] questioning native americans to ask if they're illegal immigrants might be the trumpiest thing trump has ever trumped. [ laughter ]

meanwhile, in canada, they are super excited about becoming a part of the united states. i'll tell you. they're even acting like us. last week in alberta, a guy got into a fight outside a bar on a very cold night. so cold, in fact, that his penis became frozen to the sidewalk. which, coincidentally, is also how guillermo and i met. right? [ laughter ] remember that? >> guillermo: yeah, yeah. >> jimmy: tmz broke this important story. this was the headline. "canadian bar, this weenie's not getting roasted." [ laughter ] "man's penis sticks to icy sidewalk." the headline could use some work. this weenie is not getting roasted? it's not very good. you have a great story, you need a great headline. like -- "freeze willy, this pig needs a blanket!" [ laughter ] tmz did get footage of the incident, fortunately. >> it's going to get frostbite! >> jimmy: quite a commotion. the police laid him down on the ground -- >> pick him up! >> jimmy: and finally, i don't know what else they could do,

but they just yanked him off the ice. up north they call it a saskatoon circumcision. [ laughter ] good thing it doesn't snow that much in florida or this would be a daily occurrence. [ laughter ] maybe they should become our 51st state. we might need someone to take our spot. there's a movement afoot encouraging california to secede from the union. it's a petition, and if 500,000 people sign it, it could make the ballot in 2028. this is a terrible idea. how about we figure out how to get out of the dodgers parking lot first, and then figure out how to get out of the country? [ laughter ] [ cheers and applause ] if we become our own country, who's going to turn on our giant water valve for us? [ laughter ] i mentioned last night that trump has been taking victory laps, celebrating turning a non-existent valve to turn our water back on. smokey unbearable was at it again last night.

[ laughter ] again, he wrote, "the water is flowing, big time, in northern california. the long empty reservoirs will soon be full. thank you, president trump!" [ laughter ] thank you, me! for solving an imaginary problem i made up! somehow, he managed to fit six lies in three sentences there. "the water is flowing big time" is also how he lets his nurse know it's time to change the diaper. [ laughter ] unfortunately for trump, his dumb claim was shot down by none other than his favorite tv network. a reporter from fox news, jennifer griffin, posted, "u.s. defense officials tell me they did not send troops to turn on the water in washington, despite president trump's claims overnight." that's it, jr. no cabinet position for you, i guess. [ laughter ] no one seems to know why or how trump came up with this silly idea. but to put it to rest, we decided to go to the source, governor gavin newsom, who joins us via satellite now.

[ cheers and applause ] thank you, gavin, governor newsom, for joining us. we appreciate it. >> welcome to the rodeo, brodeo! >> jimmy: thank you. [ laughter ] so, i wanted to ask you about this claim trump's making that he saved our state by turning on a giant water spigot? >> that's a nah, brah. there's no big ass spigot. >> jimmy: that's what i -- hey, what is that behind you? >> that's not water. that's the inter-continental wheatgrass pipeline. when it comes to water, mother naytch is in charge and we just go with the flow. >> jimmy: okay, all right. >> but now, low-key, the fires are under control thanks to the rains i summoned. [ laughter ] >> jimmy: the rains you summoned? >> well, let me be clear. it wasn't just me who summoned the rain. i convened a multi-faith tribunal of climate shamans and medicine they-thems. and after an intense transcendental cleansing orgy, we invoked a sick-ass atmospheric river. boom-chakra-lakra -- rain.

[ laughter ] >> jimmy: i see, i see, okay. that makes sense. so where do the fires stand out? >> check it. as you can see, this map is inclusively color-coded to indicate how much of a bummer the fires are. palisades? class 5 total bummer. >> jimmy: okay. >> in malibu, it's a downer, but not un-surfable. and zuma beach is going balls deep. >> jimmy: okay. i think that's good, then, i guess. what is the status of the eaton fire? >> no idea what that is. [ laughter ] >> jimmy: that was a big one. it's the fire in altadena. >> oh. oh, yeah. there's no surf in altadena. it's legit landlocked. >> jimmy: okay, we're not necessarily interested in the surf conditions in these places. >> oh, well then, i'm happy to report my vineyard is fine. [ laughter ] >> jimmy: glad to hear that. as far as trump goes -- >> speaking of. see me lay one on melania? >> jimmy: i did see this, yeah. >> check this out.

there i am. with donald dork. >> jimmy: yeah. >> then there's the wifey, she likey, she down to pound. [ laughter ] [ applause ] >> jimmy: i can hardly say i blame her, governor. and what about this -- these endangered fish trump keeps bringing up, the delta smelt? >> delt smelts! these guys. kind of reminds me of that stephen miller. but with more friends. [ laughter ] >> jimmy: yeah, yeah. >> bro, they are supes endangered! and we gotta preserve those little [ bleep ]s at all costs. [ laughter ] 'cause eggs from fishes are so delicious. especially when paired with a glass of bone-dry cali peen. oh, that is so tight. [ laughter ] >> jimmy: wait a second, who is this? >> that's the shaman who helped me out with the rainfall. >> jimmy: isn't that the q-anon shaman from january 6th. >> yeah, but he's chill now. >> whoo, whoo! >> okay, chill-ish.

yo, shambone, summon me some cruelty-free chicken tendies! >> [ bleep ] yeah! [ laughter ] >> jimmy: governor, before you go, what do you make of this movement to have california secede from the united states? >> i'm 'bout it, 'bout it, slim jim. just off the dome, what do you think about the republic of gavinistan? >> jimmy: as a name? >> yeah. >> jimmy: i hate it. i guess. >> okay, we'll workshop it. >> jimmy: okay. >> but i do know that if it does happen, we're switching all our dinero to kiediscoin. >> jimmy: what? to -- what is kiediscoin? >> it's red hot chili peppers frontman anthony kiedis' sick new crypto and it's going to the moon! ♪ what i've got you've got to get it put it in you ♪ ♪ what i've got you've got to get it put it in you ♪ [ laughter ] >> jimmy: good luck, governor. i appreciate you taking time to us. i know you have a very busy week. >> i do! friday is the draft for my fantasy polo league. [ laughter ] >> jimmy: good luck with that. >> all right, chachi! protect ya neck! >> jimmy: okay, thank you, governor. >> chicken tendies!

[ applause ] >> jimmy: we have a very good show for you tonight. katy perry is here. we've got music from simple minds, and we'll be right back with rob mcelhenney.

>> jimmy: hi, there, welcome back. tonight, she is gearing up to come to you live on "the lifetimes tour." katy perry is with us. [ cheers and applause ] then later, from glasgow, which is now in scotland, they start their tour of the united states may 16th in ridgefield, washington. simple minds is here. [ cheers and applause ] tomorrow night, we will be joined by pamela anderson and will sasso with music from the weeknd. please join us for that. our first guest tonight is a

global sports mogul who makes popular tv shows on the side. you know him from 16 seasons of "it's always sunny in philadelphia" and four of his other very funny show. watch "mythic quest" on apple tv plus now. please welcome rob mcelhenney. ♪ [ cheers and applause ] ♪ >> jimmy: very good to see you. you look like a kingpin. >> it's so good to be -- i feel like a kingpin. >> jimmy: you should feel like a kingpin. you've got the world by the tail right now, don't you? >> i was thinking, i love being a guest but i really love hosting this show and i miss it. >> jimmy: all right, next time we'll just swap spots. [ laughter ] i have some questions for you tonight. >> okay. >> jimmy: number one -- well, first of all, i really enjoyed the crossover with "always sunny" and "abbott elementary."

[ cheers and applause ] and i loved it. i miss crossovers. they used to happen all the time when i was a kid. you'd have fonzie and ritchie showing up with laverne and cherylly. it doesn't seem to happen anymore. but you guys, even though the shows are different shows and very different audiences, as well. >> yes. >> jimmy: one is a family show, the other is not. >> unless your family is the manson family. [ laughter ] >> jimmy: unless you are a member of the mansons, which you'd be pretty old if that was true. was that a fun thing for you to do? >> it was. we grew up watching when television was really fun and you'd see crossovers all the time. i'd met quinta a number of times over the years. for the first time backstage after she had just won an emmy, that was a great time to meet somebody for the first time. because they're very happy. >> jimmy: they'll agree to anything. >> yes. [ laughter ] we had a pleasant conversation, wouldn't it be really funny if we crossed over? we got together and had a couple of ideas, and that was that. >> jimmy: i liked how you did it, too.

did the kids, actor kids, know who you guys were? >> no, except there was one kid who was there asking for photos with all of us. and you could tell that his mom was humiliated by the fact that she allows her child to watch. [ laughter ] >> jimmy: she should be very ashamed of herself, yeah. >> but most of the kids were taking pictures with danny. >> jimmy: danny devito. >> right. >> jimmy: they know danny? >> no, they know jersey mike. [ laughter ] that's how they know him. "jersey mike, jersey mike, that's jersey mike!" [ laughter ] >> jimmy: that's depressing is what that is. [ laughter ] so then the cast of "abbott" is going to be on your show on, on "always sunny." >> that's right. >> jimmy: when is that happening? >> that's going to be out in june. the way we looked at the episodes is we shot the same story from two different perspectives. abbott has a very specific family hone. "sunny" has a very specific

un-family tone. [ laughter ] we thought it would be interesting if we told the story told through the prism of each. >> jimmy: we won't see the characters from "abbott elementary" cursing and being deplorable, will we? >> oh -- >> jimmy: oh, we will? >> we will. >> jimmy: interesting. >> we had to play nice on their show. and we got them to play bad on ours. [ laughter ] >> jimmy: you, of course, have a football team, as they call it. >> yes. >> jimmy: we call it soccer here. in wales, wrexham. they're doing well. [ laughter ] explain how that works. if you play well you get promoted -- >> to the next league. >> jimmy: the next season. >> we're currently third place. the top three teams get promoted. we have been promoted already twice. and we're about halfway through this season. >> jimmy: how many -- >> this will be the first time in the history of english football that a team has gone up three times in a row. >> jimmy: wow. that's the first time in the

history of english football? >> if it happens, yeah. >> jimmy: how many games are left in the season? >> about 20. >> jimmy: oh, okay, all right. you've got a long way to go. >> there's 50-some games a season, there's a lot of games. >> jimmy: now you bought two more teams in colombia and mexico? >> that's right. >> jimmy: you have a problem, i think. [ laughter ] that's a big jump, isn't it? >> yes. we just fell in love with the sport. we fell in love with just the idea of being able to fall in love with a community. and that community happens to fall in love with a sport that we love. so we just become so invested in the entire experience. >> jimmy: what if you screw it up and it doesn't go well -- >> they'll kill you, they'll murder you. [ laughter ] >> jimmy: yes. soccer fans are very passionate. >> simply, i would never say the "s" word that you just said. i would -- i have to call it football. >> jimmy: right, you have to call it football. >> yes. >> jimmy: right, it's confusing

if i call it football because we already have a football. >> that's the thing. >> jimmy: speaking of already having a football? >> yes, let's talk about it. >> jimmy: your philadelphia eagles are going to the super bowl. that's exciting for you. [ cheers and applause ] if they win, will you buy that team too? [ laughter ] >> i would -- i would love to be able to afford a team in the national football league. but i don't think that's going to be possible any time soon. >> jimmy: do you think it might be smart to bring guillermo in on this? what's the team in mexico? >> nacaxa. >> jimmy: do you habla? [ speaking spanish ] >> jimmy: si, sure, yeah. [ laughter ] >> guillermo: yes, muy bien, perfecto! [ speaking spanish ] >> jimmy: you've been on dua lingo. have you really been on dua lingo? i've been on dua lingo also. >> yeah. >> jimmy: what are your thoughts on that? >> well, they bully you.

>> jimmy: yes! [ laughter ] >> they have that little bird, and the bird is a bully. and shames you. >> jimmy: they should put that bird in a blender with some mice -- [ laughter ] [ applause ] and turn it on. because i got bullied last night. i'm not kidding. my daughter and i are learning italian, or she's learning italian, i'm not doing my part. i've had 30 days, and last night they're like, "well, i guess you're not going to learn to speak italian." [ laughter ] my mother's not this passive-aggressive with me. [ laughter ] >> it will transition into aggressive as well. >> jimmy: yeah. >> in any language you can understand. >> jimmy: you are following -- obviously you learned something here, yeah? >> yeah, dua lingo, it does work. again, living in los angeles, it's -- [ speaking spanish ] >> jimmy: right, right, exactly. [ laughter ] exactamente, as they say. back to the eagles.

the mayor of -- i don't know if you saw this but the mayor of philadelphia is very excited about this eagles team. >> yeah. >> well, listen, we've got to do this. let me hear you all say e-l-g-l-e-s, eagles! let's go, birds! [ laughter and applause ] >> jimmy: that is not -- she's got to get on dua lingo for english. [ laughter ] >> i love that she owned it. she just kept going right through it. shouldn't the most important part at the very end, "go birds." that's all that matters. >> jimmy: would you like to correct her as far as the chant goes? >> wow, do we think we can get the -- >> jimmy: no, the audience is not going to join in. is in anyone from philadelphia? >> everyone else can spell "eagles," right? ready?

e-a-g-l-e-s, eagles!

"it's always sunny in philadelphia" being on for like 28 years or whatever it's been now. >> i think it's just waiting for its moment. i think people forget, because the show's been on so long, nobody watched "sunny" for a decade. for real. for six or seven seasons. >> jimmy: i will say my son, kevin, had it on in our house every week. from the beginning. >> from the beginning, okay, yeah. you were the one. >> jimmy: we were the two, yeah. [ laughter ] >> nobody watched it but fx believed in the show and they kept putting it on the air, kept paying for it. eventually, it just sort of hit the zeitgeist and caught on. i think "mythic quest" is just ready for that moment to happen. >> jimmy: you think that the title was misleading people? >> 100%. if i had a time machine -- if i had a time machine, there's a lot of things i would change.
