good morning, ne. and--but that's in iceland. >> tom: and mother mother. this indie-rock group is staring over the precipice of aeveryo mainstream breakout. catch them here first in performance. and we revisit a conversation with hollywood leading lady and star of the imitation game keira knightly. i'm tom power, this is q. ♪ [theme] ♪ >> tom: ok, so you know that feeling when you order, like, 16 chicken nuggets and then you eat all 16 chicken nuggets, and then you're sprawled out on the couch and all you can feel is the salt and your belt buckle struggling? well, jim gaffigan has turned that feeling into fame and comedy gold. his new book food: a love story, is a new york times best-seller, and he dropped by studio q to speak with piya chattopadhyay about fatherhood about fame, and yes, about food.

check out their conversation here in studio q.nded in toronto, you tweet-- >> jim: yes, i love to tweet. >> piya:--maybe more than you eat. >> jim: we're tweeter--we're twitter buddies, you and i. >> piya: we're not. you haven't followed me yet. >> jim: i'm follow--you know, it's hard to follow women on twitter, because it's like if you follow--i'm married. i don't want my wife to be like, "why are you following that woman?"gonna >> piya: so am i. >> jim: i don't know. >> piya: it's twitter. >> jim: it's so weird. why do you have your hand on my knee? [piya laughs] >> piya: ok, speaking of people-- >> jim: yes, yes. >> piya: so you land in toronto last night. i followed you on twitter-- >> jim: yes. >> piya:--and you're in a hotel room and you order--you say, "hey, i'm in toronto, so obviously i order rigatoni." >> jim: right, well some of that is--i was in a hotel room, and i just thought that i would live tweet my room service order, so i was trying to be funny-- >> piya: including the server, vlad. how's he doing? >> jim: yes, vlad was all right. he was good. he was a good kisser. no, vlad was a nice, you know, guy who was the room service guy who was from the ukraine who

probably has no idea that i tweeted about him for, like, an hour. but, uh, he was a perfectly nice room service guy, and i gave him an extra tip because they have that 15% built in, because they--you know, they went through the effort taking the elevator up with your food, so why not charge 15%? i gave him an extra tip, you know. he was-- >> piya: how much? >> jim: i gave him, uh, i think $5. >> piya: ok. that's fair. >> jere you go, i'm generous. >> piya: i'm going to start giving you room service if you tip like that. >> jim: you know, bring by food. >> piya: ok, i want to talk to you about food, because it's important to you. >> jim: it's very important. >> piya: where--what's the--iim: th mean, i know you've eaten food since you were born, i get that-- >> jim: yeah, yeah. >> piya:--but what's the genesis of your interest in food? >> jim: i--you know, i think as a comedian, i was drawn to it because food is such a universal topic. like, you don't have to spend a lot of time explaining it. and there's also, it's relatively indecisive, so--i mean, indivisive.

so--or non-divisive. er the word is. >> piya: divisive. >> jim: i'm only in--or divisive. um, and so you're not going to--you're not going to lose awhatev lot of people if you go after shellfish or something like that, or you attack hot pockets. there's--like, there's just--if you're that offended by a hot pocket joke, you're really crazy. right? >> piya: and--and as you're eating hot pockets, or whatever else is in your culinary repertoire-- >> jim: yes. >> piya:--are you ng "hey, this is funny and i can "turn that into a joke? >> jim: it's strange. you know, this book, food: a love story it kind--you know,thinki it's--it's mostly kind of topics that i've compiled over 20 years of doing stand-up that a lot of didn't make it into my stand-up act, and a lot of it was just a kernel that i turned into an essay with my wife. and so, uh, yes, some of it is it i'll sit down and i'll be eating something and i'll say this is just--i mean, human beings we're just weird anyway.

>> piya: some of us more than rs. >> jim: right, no, i mean, it's just strange what we're eating and why we eat it and how we're, you know--like, we look at other cultures and we think, they're othe weirdoes for eating that, and then when you make a chicken soup that's healthy you're supposed to use chicken feet in it. you know, ite you can't look at the chinese as eating something strange if we're doing just a different type of strange. >> piya: now you have a particular beef with healthy's lik food. >> jim: yes. >> piya: for instance, you have a chapter, it's called, "nobody really likes fruit." >> jim: yes, nobody does. >> piya: i do, but anyway-- >> jim: i mean, you think you do. you think you i don't think a strawberry has ever lived up to expectations. i think that, um, bananas are good.think that, like, a lot of the melon stuff, like cantaloupe and honeydew, it's garbage. [piya laughs] >> jim: no one's ever liked it everyone's kind of like--you i know, they--they get it in the morning or it's served with prosciutto, so they're like, "yeah, all right, fine." it's just bland and i think--you

know, and that's why i'm running for prime minister. i want to get rid of the fruit in canada, i want to get back to our poutine culture. >> piya: you also--you particularly don't like apples. >> jim: well, you know, i just think that no one's--no one's liked fruit for a long time.at's not true. [jim laughs] >> piya: and i want to ask you about kale, because kale, ofurse, has been somewhat trendy. >> jim: yeah. >> piya: you don't like kale. >> jim: well, no, my issue is, you know, there is just these co constant health trends, right? and it's kind of silly, and what our parents considered healthy we kind of look at as kind of silly. my mom asisters would eat cottage cheese. they would eat a tub of cheese curds and believe that it was healthy. and it's--it's really not. and nd my e, which i--i understand, it's good for you, and it should. i mean, it is, like--it's a bagso kal of leaves, right? i mean, it's yard work. [piya laughs] >> jim: it should be--it should be better for you than, like, a bowl of ice cream, but it tastes

like bug spray. and, you know, supposedly, you know, they could--i mean, i think they could find out kale cures cancer and i would still just do the chemo. because it's just--it's not that--you know, i've tried kale. i don't know how bad the chemo is. i don't mean to be so insensitive about that. >> piya: so has--are you a foodie? like, is that how you just-- >> jim: no, i'm not a foodie. >> piya: no, what are you? >> jim: i--i am, um--well, i don't have anything against foodies. i--i understand. and, you know, when this book first came out, and when we were first writing it, i didn't realize the food culture, that it wout of control that there is--you know, i knew about yelp, but i don't, you know--aas so foodie is someone that--that really--they want to understand the science behind why something tastes good, and i'm just not that bored with food. i just want the closest best meal, right? >> piya: mm. >> jim: you know, like, i don't want to do research.

i'm lazy, so like i'll just turn to someone and i'll say, "all right, i'm in toronto, where should i get curry?" that's all i want to do. i don't want to sit there and read articles. i--i'm anti-reading. progressive insurance here and i'm a box who thrives on the unexpected. ha-ha! shall we dine? [ chuckle ] you wouldn't expecan insurance company to show you their rates and their competitors' rates but that's precisely what we do. going up! nope, comit n. and if you switch to progressive today you could save an average of over 500 bucks. stop it. so call me today at the number below. ng dow or is it above? dismount! oh, and he sticks the landing!

t we can have space for all these kids. >> piya: mm. >> jim: i should really--i should meet some of them. i--there's a lot of them. so thaa: there are a lot of them. and--and as you are raising these children, who are all still quite young-- >> jim: yes. >> piya:--and as a parent, because you are one of those>> piy you talk a lot about it, do you worry about your kids, about what they eat, particularly when they're not at home, or are you guys just, like, hitting those microwave ands on hot pockets and, "hey kids, it's suppertime." >> jim: no, my wife is--you know, i wrote this book with my wife and the great irony is thisbutton is--this is book is my point of view, and it's--obviously it's an exaggeration. you know, i mean, i would love to eat bacon all day, but you just can't. and--but my wife is a pretty healthy eater and she also wanted to put a disclaimer at the end of the book, saying, "this is no way to lead your life." [piya chuckles] >> jim: but my wife is very health conscious. like, she buys the bread that i think is made of sawdust. at least that's what it tastes

so no, they eat very healthy. >> piya: you just do your own thing. >> jim: i mean, i eat healthy when i'm with them-- >> piya: mm. >> jim:--but when--you know, when i'm not with them. >> piya: you also talike.ut food shame. >> jim: yes. >> piya: which is quite--a thing that we talk a lot about. people feel very guilty. you don't, but a lot of people feel guilty and you talk aboutlk abo this in your act. i want to play just a bit of a clip from your last comedy special. it was called mr. universe about how people are ashamed of liking mcdonald's. >> jim: i reference mcdonald's a lot, because i go to mcdonald's. i love the silence that follows that statement. [laughter] >> jim: like, i just admitted to support dog fighting or something. [laughter] >> jim: how could you? [laughter] >> jim: mcdonald's!it's fun telling people you go to mcdonald's. they always give you that look like, "oh, i don't know i was better than you." [laughter] >> jim: no one admits to going to mcdonald's. they sell 6 billion hamburgers a day. there's only 300 million people

in this countr it's like, "hmm, i'm not a calculus teacher, but i think everyone's lying." [laughter] y. >> jim: you ever been at mcdonald's and you see a friend? for a second, you're like, "oh, crap." [laughter] >> jim: eventually you're like "hey, what's going on?" [laughter] >> jim: and they're like, "i'm just here for the 99 cent atm. what are you doing here, jim?" [laughter] >> jim: "i'm just meeting a hooker." [laughter] >> jim: certainly not eating here, that's for sure. yeah. he should be here by now, i-- [laughter] [applause] >> piya: that's jim gaffig from the comedy special mr. universe. you eat at the scottish joint, at mcdonald's. >> jim: uh, yeah, yeah. well, you know, i--i mean, i travel a lot, so i do, but i--myan whole thing is, like, i don't think it's the worst thing to occasionally eat at mcdonald's and by the way, i do-- >> piya: what do you mean by

sionally? >> jim: well, let's say you're--let's say you're with your kids. you've got three kids and you're driving for three hours. if you stop at mcdonald's on the occa way, is that the worst crime? i mean, that's some of--i go on in that act, i go in--it's a guilty pleasure. it's not the worst crime anyone's ever committed, and so i don't think it's that big of a deal to eat at mcdonald's, but culturally, at least in theates, it's like, you know, there's like a snobbery. there's--there's this, you know, everyone should be only eating you know, grass fed and farm st fed, you know, like, only chickens that had corn. you know, it's just--it's just absurd. i'm not proposing that we eat mcdonald's, but i'm just saying let's be realistic here. >> piya: mm. >> jim: anyway, i'm a great guy. only that's what i'm saying. >> piya: you talked about spending a lot of time on the road and finding yourself atrious

fast-food joints. >> jim: yeah. >> piya: that's just--that's just part of your biz. >> jim: yeah. >> piya: yeah, you just gotta pick up what's ever there. >> jim: yeah, i mean, well vai--i'm in a lot of airports, and, you know--and i don't know if there's--it's hard to eat healthy in an airport. it's changed a lot. i mean, one time i was in the south bend airport in indiana, which is some--it's a place everyone should go, because it was designed by stalin. [piya laughs] >> jim: but there's--it's hard to eat healthy. i tried--i saw an apple and i was like, "oh, i guess i'll get that apple," and i realized it was just a decoration. like, there's--it's hard to eat healthy when you travel, right? you can either have a delicious, you know, horrible-for-you burger, or you can have a salad that's sat in the refrigerator for 15 hours. >> piya: mm. >> jim: so it's a difficult task, and when i do--when i am in the airport, i feel as though i am always in the security line, and i'm always behind that person that's never left their house , uh, why are we so obsessed

with food culturally now? >> jim: i think--well, i'm just guessing, but-- >> piya: based on your extensive research that you--you do. >> jim:--i think, uh, as--as we evolve as human beings, we realize we can't smoke, we can't drink as much as, you know--i mean, this isn't scotland, you know? we can't--we can't do the excessive drinking, so there you know--food is--is our outlet, maybe, and howah. >> piya: um, i only got a couple of minutes left, and i got a's couple things that i want to ask you. >> jim: yeah. >> piya: one is, what's the worst thing you've ever eaten? >> jim: i was in iceland andey have, um, some pretty--pretty amazing--i think it's, like, kind of a tourist stunt, some of these food, but i had sheep's head, whic th was baaaad--no, which tastes amazingly similar to a sheep'sh, um,

head. >> piya: mm. >> jim: and then i also--they have some kind of shark thing that is--i didn't even have a bite of it, beyou open it and the smell is--supposedly-- legend is that it's fermented incause urine. good morning, everyone. and--but that's in iceland. >> piya: uh huh. >> jim: and so, um, that's some pretty bad food. that's some pretty bad food. >> piya: ok, you--we have spent, like, 20 minutes talking about food-- >> jim: yes, yes. >> piya:--and--i mean, is this what you continue to do as you--as you build your career, it's alreadyng, but as you continue on do you continue to focus on food in your act? >> jim: i think that i'm--i think--you know, my last comedy soari special was called obsessed, and it was kind of this admission, like, "all right, i'm obsessed with food." that's wha about. and i feel like i've gotten through a lot of the topics. like, it's not like i can go back to going out to dinner.t it's

like in my new hour that i'm doing right now, there's some food, but i've kind of touched on a lot of topics. it's getting to the point where--you know, my wife and i we write everything together and we--we always want to steer away from food, but it's just so easy to talk about food. >> piya: you have to find a new obsession. >> jim: yeah. >> piya: yeah. >> jim: yeah, but there's always something fun to do. like, you know i--on twitter e mentioned something. they're like, "hey, in winnipeg are you gonna have, you know curry or are you gonna have this or are you gonna have pho, whichsomeon is--" >> piya: yeah, vietnamese. >> jim: and--and i have no idea what pho is. so i'm like, "all right, that's another topic there." >> piya: well, and as a tribute to vlad, maybe you should eat some per >> jim: i love perogies. i love perogies. >> >> keira knightly: i togies.um the fact that the moral story of this film really start--really starts at the breaking of enigma i think in a way, because once they've broken the enigma hink, --i'm going to get this wrong, but i think it was 1943

that they actually broke the code, the war went on for another two years, and it's because they didn't want to give away that they'd broken it. code so the moral choices of which attacks they stopped and which attacks they didn't is absolutely insane, you know? so the idea that, if you're british you'd know, that coventry city was totally bombed and absolutely flattened and the loss of life was enormous, and you know, there's an argument to say that actually by what they did, they--they saved--they probably shaved off two years of the war and saved 14 million lives. but nevertheless, that argument of greater good is always a very tricky moral one, you know? and that is touched on in the film, you know, when you see one of the characters knows that his brother is on one of the boats that they choose not to save. and u know, i think--i think that kind of--i don't see another way around it, but that's not very helpful if it's your family member or--or you,so, yo

you know, and i think it's the tricky thing of being in--in any society. as soon as it's personal to you, go, "well, there's no way that that should happen." if you can't shut down you edtime you're not alone. get non-habit forming unisom to fall asleep fast. unisom. a stressful day deserves a restful night. at b how fast are new allegra® gelcaps? we're going out in an hour... fast. allegra® relieves your worst allergy symptoms two times faster than claritin®. new allegra® gelcaps... not just fast, allegra® fas t.
