[ cheers and applause ] i don't know why you guys are excited. hi, everyone. m you know, this is the third year in a row we've done this. i still have absolutely no idea how it works. by the way, those of you in nashville, feel free to post an instagram of my hologram because i don't think that's ever been done. go ahead and snap away. hey, do you guys want to see a puppet show? [ cheers and applause ] hold on, i'll be right back. let me grab my puppet. all right.

my little friend guillermo. look at that. guillermo, say howdy to the people in nashville. >> guillermo: howdy, nashville! >> jimmy: how are you doing tonight, guillermo? >> guillermo: jimmy, i will be happy if you don't put your hand up my >> jimmy: can i get a glass of water? watch this. all right, here we go. ghnch >> guillermo: i want some water too, can i have some water? can i get water? please, water? water! >> jimmy: isn't that incredible? >> guillermo: hello, water! [ cheers and applause ] >> jimmy: i can talk while he's doing it. while he's drinking water, i can also talk. is that enough water?

all right. thank you, poquito bandito, now back to your post. there we go. [ cheers and applause ] i want to try something in nashville in the theater. i need a volunteer from the audience for this. okay, do we have somebody lined up? all right, i'm fairly sure this has never been done before. this is a television first. oh, okay. wait, hold on. oh. hi, what's your name? >> jessica liner. >> jimmy: hi jimmy, how you doing? >> good, how are you? >> jimmy: see, this is when we appreciate our local weather men. because they have this all figured out. jessica, let me have that right, this is a graham cracker. you've seen these, right? >> yes. >> jimmy: okay. i am going to feed this graham cracker to you. >> okay. >> jimmy: all right? there you go. eat that. yes, yes, yes. enjoy. is it good? >> mmm-mmm!

world's first-ever hologram-cracker. [ cheers and applause ] get it. >> guillermo: i get it, yeah. >> jimmy: all right, thank you. all right, thank you, jessica. you know, this show's been on almost 14 years, we're still breaking new ground, it is incredible. of course the main reason i'm with you via hologram tonight is because you live i sure i become vice president of the united states. [ cheers and applause ] may i have my podium? where is my podium? thank you. dear fellow nashvilleagers, is it? it is an honor to be in nashville with you tonight. i love so many things about

fish, the goo goo clusters, fruit tea, and meat and three, whatever the hell that is, i love it all. i love your unfortunately named hockey team the predators. i love bush whackers, shownies, maxwell house coffee, and the fact that nashville has the largest population of kurdish people in the united states. and did i just read all of this stuff off of wikipedia this afternoon? yes, i did. [ laughter ] [ cheers and applause ] and as a result, i know that i can doubt count on your vote. i am the best possible voice to be vice president of the united states. but don't just take it from me, take it from a real-life cowboy! >> guillermo: i am a cowboy! and i endorse this man! >> jimmy: all right, thank you. i might never let you out of that little outfit, i swear to god. >> guillermo: i like it. >> jimmy: i like it a lot. in another swing state, from

the world series between the long-suffering indians and the even longer-suffering chicago cubs. what a year for the city of cleveland. they host the world series, won an nba title, got to see chachi speak at the republican national convention. incredible. we don't know the outcome of the game but we will by the time you're watching this at home. so just to cover my bases i'd like to say either congratulations or i'm sorry to the cubs or indians on their big victory or devastating loss, whichever that may be. [ cheers and applause ] this is going to be the highest-rated baseball game in many, many years. people all over are very interested to see the cubs go from being a team that hasn't won a world series in 108 years to being a team that won one time in 1 108 years. which sounds worse but fans in chicago have been on an emotional roller coaster, especially ryan slagle. he was on the local news

series. the video made the rounds. he's known as crying ryan to everyone he knows. we tracked ryan down, sent him to game five. game seven is in cleveland. right now ryan is in wrigleyville where they're going crazy, sluggers sports bar, ryan how are you doing? [ cheers and applause ] ryan, first of all, what's the score? is there any score yet in the game? >> we're ready to go team's fired up, we're ready to go tonight. >> jimmy: what i want to know is are your friends still making fun of the crying? >> i was a halloween costume so that was good. i have a new dance called the hyperventilate, so that's a real hit. they're currently doing research on a new sports anxiety medication testing right now.

endorsement deal. do you think you will cry more tonight if the cubs win or lose? >> well, win. because we are going to win. we're already up. >> jimmy: okay, all right. will you be going to work tomorrow? >> i have no idea, really depends how tonight goes. >> jimmy: you may have to call in drunk, all right. [ laughter ] >> love you, jimmy! >> jimmy: good luck to you guys, sluggers in wrigleyville, i know it's crazy there. [ cheers and applause ] >> jimmy: that looks like fun. earlier tonight on the cmas, we honored country music's brightest stars with trophies. later on we'll punch those very same stars with an all-country music edition of "mean tweets." first we have a cautionary tale for you. for lovers of both music and affordable furniture, i came across a story recently online about a man from norway.

rstad. he bought a shower stool from ikea. once he got home and sat on it something unpleasant happened. when he sat down, a key part of his body became stuck in one of the holes. i know. it's a hard story to hear. rather than just tell you about it we enlisted the help of a young singer named justin moore who was kind enough to give voice to this terrible tale of a norwegian nut with a very sad sac. >> this here's a story about a tough buy with a big problem. ? ? down in norway town there lived a lad ? ? he went by the name klaus jorstad ? ? took an ikea chair into the shower sat on it about an hour ? ? see the holes and all the love

? no matter how much he'd twist and shout ? ? sha little bitty sucker wouldn't pop out ? ? oh devil stool you are just so cruel ? ? give me back my family jewel you devil stool ? ? klaus said to himself so mad he could spit, i'm in a different kind of ikea ball pit ? ? this school's name should have clued me in testing for pinching and ? after the yellow that worked at ikea come up with such a cruel cruel idea ? ? you'd have to be a sadistic soul to make a stool with a nut-sized hole ? ? klaus tried every trick he knew lathered himself tried wd-40 cocoa butter ? ? hoe couldn't pull that nutter right out ? ? suddenly the heat ran out and

spout ? ? and klaus well he just up and shrunk and the devil stool freed up his junk ? ? oh devil stool you played me for a fool ? ? but you ain't laving now you devil stool ? ? oh devil stool i'm free from you ? ? damn you straight to hell you devil stool ? >> brought to you by ikea meatballs. [ cheers and applause ] >> jimmy: we have to take a break. when we come back, i have three ridiculous questions for willie nelson, miranda lambert, florida georgia line, dolly parton, chris stapleton and more in an all-country edition of "mean tweets" so stick around! [ cheers and applause ]

apples wrote about them and they graciously accepted that offer. it's time for our second all-country music edition of "mean tweets." >> just because you have a beard, a ponytail, and a cowboy hat doesn't mean you can sing. you know how i know? trace adkins. just concerning. >> bonnie raitt looks like the aunt who w many at your mom's birthday party and try to fight your dad. >> randy houser, more like ballooner who's-er.
