[ cheers and applause ] >> jimmy: hi, i'm jimmy. i'm the host of the show. thank you so much for coming.

thanks for risking really everything to be here tonight. the unthinkable has happened. it's now been raining in l.a. for two days in a row. which is -- that's never happened before in our history. flash flood, high surf, and wind advisories are in effect. my doppler's been going nuts all day. of course this is the work of el nino, which is -- it's my favorite storm system that sounds like an early '80s latino boy band. [ laughter ] meteorologists say the storm is tied now for the strongest el nino storm ever. they say if it gets any stronger it could turn into a dwayne johnson movie. [ laughter ] the good news is i finally have an excuse to wear a very cute pair of wellies i bought back in 2012. somebody shot this video and post td to facebook. this is from not too far from here in highland park. you see the little parade of trash bins.

street. it's like they're escaping. now, this -- whoever shot this decided to follow one of the -- [ laughter ] look at that little fella go. this could be a pixar movie, right? [ laughter ] call it "receptacles" or something. just kept hanging right around that curb there. until finally it met a tragic end. yeah. [ laughter ] why is that sad? why do we attach human qualities to everything? [ laughter ] let's go out to hollywood boulevard right now. okay. so guillermo -- we put a gopro on a toy boat, and guillermo is out there. he's going to drop that boat in the -- [ cheers and applause ] the little river that runs past our studio. and there it goes. you know, usually that gutter is full of passed-out supersureos. [ laughter ]

going pretty good. pretty good clip. that's a little guillermo we put in the boat there to drive it. there you go. it's like a chase scene out of a bond movie. look at that. okay. there he is. kind of adorable. and now it's turned boring. [ laughter ] you know? it really -- perilous. he's making his way through these cars pretty well here. nicely -- i wonder if he'll get around that. no. that's where our story ends. [ cheers and applause ] you know when you're watching tv shows and they say you're going exciting. [ laughter ] tonight on the fox network -- by the way, the beginning of the end of an era, the 15th and final season of "american idol" is under way. "american idol" might be the biggest show in the history of television. at its peak more than 30 million and things will be different

now if you want to see mentally ill people sing you'll have to go to the bus station. [ laughter ] but in honor of this historic television milestone we put together a salute to the most memorable "american idol" winners over the years. great names. names like, well, kelly clarkson. names like carrie underwood. you can see there, who became a huge star. jordin sparks, who was a winner of "american idol." taylor -- swift? no? taylor something. this one was sharon? i think. this guy is -- this is either steven or david or -- maybe a -- oh. wilson phillips. i know that one. [ laughter ] ja- -- i have no idea who that is. i don't -- i don't know that one. i definitely don't know that one. [ laughter ] you know what?

this was a bad idea. [ laughter ] i did know carrie underwood. so that was pretty good, right? congratulations to them on their -- [ cheers and applause ] whatever they do. i really don't know what it was, but they did it. meanwhile, in north korea there's much celebration this week. north korea's claiming that they successfully detonated their first hydrogen bomb. >> [ speaking foreign language ]. >> jimmy: i don't know why that's funny, but it is.fected color television yet, but they do have a hydrogen bomb. [ laughter ] i should say they claim to have a hydrogen bomb. in fact, the white house today said the evidence, you know, they got the shock waves or oes not support their claim. but the north korean government released a statement that said, "nothing is more foolish than

herds ofwolves." does that make any sense? [ laughter ] what are woflsz lves going to do with a gun? eat it?e the announcement, the people of north korea were like this is great, now can we have food and shoes?the dear leader of north korea, kim jong un, celebrated this alleged scientific achievement with a fresh new haircut thathter ] i think says it all. that's the rachel of north korea. [ cheers and applause ]t to bet we see someone with that very haircut at the grammys this year? oh, you're back? >> yeah. >> jimmy: how are you doing? >> good.eers and applause ] it was cold. >> jimmy: can i ask you a question? are you wearing a shirt under -- you're wearing a shirt uner >> yeah. >> jimmy: but why are your sleeves like completely

>> because i have a -- i don't -- i have a shirt but it's short jimmy: you're wearing a -- [ laughter ] you're wearing a short leave shirt under that?t was raining. so i changed right away. >> jimmy: you changed into a short leave shirt? >> it off. let's see what you look like without the -- [ cheers and applause ] you look like you should be doing insurance claims or something. [ laughter ] i didn't know that. all these years, i didn't know you did that. >> no, this is the first: oh, it's the first time. see, i'm very observant. anyway, back to north korea. we're really spanning them mexico to north korea. you would think that the idea that north korea might have a

alarming to those of west coast, but we went out on the street today and it seems like if you asked people a question in a cheerful enough manner we will -- we congratulations for just about anything. >> north korea announced that they finally were able to successfully detonate a hydrogenworld is excited. people are sending their congratulations. >> that's really good. >> would you like to congratulate north korea? >> congratulations, north korea. finally. i mean, it's about time, you you like to say congratulations to north korea? any words of encouragement for them? >> you know, i think that, you know, i think if you do believe that one day you canome true, i think. it's definitely a disney, you know, thing to do. >> would you say this is a great example of if you can dream it you can achieve it? >> for sure.ou can do it, then you can achieve it. >> and north korea has done that with the hydrogen bomb. >> and that's good for them. >> yeah, you to stick to your dreams and you know, anything can come true. yeah. so you know, we say they stuck

>> especially with north korea and its hydrogen bomb. everyone's so excited for them, they're sending their congratulations. would you like to congratulate north korea? >> congratulations, north korea. congratulations, kim jong un, on everything you've done. you've done a really good job. keep it up. stay safe. good luck. >> congratulations on achieving rea. >> congratulations, north korea. it's a high five. [ cheers and applause ]my: we have to take a break. when we come back, and all signs say we will, i'm going to teach you the hidden language of texting. so stick around. we'll be right back. ht now you can get 15 gigs for 100 bucks plus $15 per line that is perfect because we are about to start the wholeing yeah and lots of data will mean lots of video chatting

[ scanner warbling ] crazy that a big shot like me would pack his own bags, right?

[ chuckles ] wait.

>> jimmy: welcome back. kathy griffin, aaron sorkin, andnet is on the way. but first i want to carve some time out of tonight's show to share something i figured out over the break. you know, we all exper in passive-aggressive behavior, but thanks to the way we use technology now there's a new way to be passive aggressive that's not as easy it's the passive-aggressive text message. now, if you don't know what i mean by that, here's an example. you ask a simple question like this.dave to dinner tonight? and the person to whom you're texting replies, sure, with an exclamation point. if you got this text you could e the person on the other end is happy about dave coming to dinner, maybe even excited about it. but what about this? you ask, can i bring dave to

and your husband or wife ornd says, sure, with a period. almost an identical text, but the subtext -- instead of the exclamation point, exclamation point means i thought we were going out just the two of us or i don't care if dave comes or maybe it meansdave. [ laughter ] you don't know. well, let's look at another example here. simple message. you ask, can you pick up some milk on the way home? and your textmate course. if you got this, you can assume there will be a container of mill nic your frirnlth when this person gets home. but what question, can you pick up some milk on the way home? and the response is the letter k. [ laughter ] if you got this, i think you cann will get the milk but isn't happy about it. the letter k is like the text equivalent of rolling your eyes at someone. it's like what a you ask how her day was. a k is no good. but this might be worse. now, try again.

way home? and the yup. yup translates to i'll get the milk but why the hell can't you get the milk? i'm working all day. yours to get milk and now i'm being asked to go get the milk. right? yup should never be confused with yep. yep's okay. yep is friendly. but if the e changes to a u that person probably wants to put you into a wood chipper. [ laughter ]re. maybe this might be the most passive aggressive of all the passive aggressive texts. it's this. this response. ha.ha says i acknowledge what you said was meant to be funny. it wasn't. but can you imagine in a joke and someone said ha? [ laughter ] you can't because no one would ever do that. if they did you would fight

so just to recap, when using periods, yups and has. and most importantly, never, ever use your phone to make a caever do. [ laughter ] nobody likes that anymore. it's annoying. this is something that also involves our thumbs. y're exploring the possibility of expanding their limit of 140 characters per tweet to 10,000 characters per tweet.t makes twitter twitter? they might get rid of that. in fact, in other words, twitter is very close to inventing fa ] i don't like this. this is basically like if apple decided to change the iphone to a washing this is interesting. especially for those of you who are mothers to be. there's a new device that lets you play music for your fetus, for your unborn child.d baby pod. and it is -- it plays music when inserted into a music. like john mayer.

[ laughter ]le are always coming up with ideas to play music for the unborn babies. has anyone ever considered it might be the only time in their whole lives when they get some peace and quiet a them alone? fwu you but if you do want to entertain your baby there's a new for women.

mother. babies the womb. but what if there's a way to get music to your baby before it's even conceived? the dre present -- ballz by dre. the first ever high-quality headphones for testicles.nect ballz by dre to your smartphone, choose your favorite music, affix the headphones snuggly to your scrotum, and relax stimulated by high-fidelity ballz by dre. and you can pump up the bass for an even greater effect. a leading testicologist i have seen firsthand what this product can do. before ballz by dre these were lifeless.

[ laughter ] >> jimmy: i can't believe that but what about this cone of silence? reveal. lift the cone, please. >> fine, fine, fine. so anderson will say things like, well, you're not going to ask me anyquestions, right? and i'll say of course not, anderson. that's just not my way. and then somehow i asked him the price of ags. >> jimmy: uh-huh. >> of course he's a vanderbilt. so he thought it was $1,000.e next day he texted me. he goes, "now the whole world knows i don't know the cost of a." and i said, honey, they never thought you knew. [ laughter ] that's who he is.

because he's so perfect and he's so gorgeous and he's such a he's going to host the town hall with barack obama. although he told me this in the cone of silence. >> jimmy: what? >> he said make sure you don't tell anybody. so here we go.ay more -- he said before new year's, he goes, you know i'm way more nervous about what's going to happen with you than sitting down with barack obamamy: is that right? >> yes. >> jimmy: barack obama doesn't spray pesticides in his face while he's doingd think about it. it's fun. >> jimmy: it is funny. >> it's an executive order. >> jimmy: let's talk about your dinner with the man you describe as the devil, ryan seacrest.any terrible things about ryan seacrest. >> look, she and i made up.

bye-bye. [ laughter ] i'll call like le cirque and jean george. then i ended up just getting him to come to my hotel. s with are we in a cone of silence? and i'm like yeah, we're in a cone of silence. if i'm not going to give it to cher i'm not going to give it to seacrest.e a cylinder of silence with -- zwri poked a couple holes in it. he was upset with me because i said something on new year's eve. i thought it wats me to correct the record. like it freaking matters. anyway. by the way, i think he's printing and [ bleep ] money don't feel too bad for ryan. anyway. when ryan seacrest is around me alone he tries to act like. [ laughter ] i know. i know, right? i've got to get my two emmys. here you go. he's like, oh, tell anderson a really good job moderating the debate.

i go, really? who are the candidates?en he looks -- he's all nervous. and he's like we're in a cone of silence, right? i go yeah. who are the candidates? and he goes, you know, the one thateep in mind, anderson moderated the democratic debate. and seacrest goes, trump, cruz, and hillary.on. [ applause ] >> jimmy: nice. >> so then -- then -- >> jimmy: look how happy you guys look w. that's why i'm going for the kill. >> jimmy: one of these people is the devil, but it's not ryan. >> what?

i will say this, though. and this is one of the reasons that i loathe him. because you know, he's like a cute guy and like everything just freaking falls in his lap. and the kardashians are his you know, we're all paying the price. they keep multiplying with candle and francine and the lipe and -- tyga's like texting a 14-year-old. now it's like kylie's mess. it's such a nightmare. so that's all his fault. he's the producer of that. so we can't be too easy onll cone of silence. >> jimmy: right, right. you can just -- it stays in this room alone. >> sitting there with seacrest and his date. [ laughter ] had to cost him a fortune. [ laughter ] terrible. i have crossed the line. >> jimmy: you really have. >> can we move on? anyway, so -- so two separate people, seacrest, send him like $500 bottles of wine. >> jimmy: oh, really? >> yeah.

write a biopic, a traditional biopic, a cradle to grave story e character's greatest hits along the way. that i wanted to do something else. and what that turned frankly a lot of dialogue. and -- which if you are a little familiar with my work it's not that when i grew up, in my family, at my family's dinner table, anybody who used one word when they could have used ten just wasn't trying hard enough. >> jimmy: i see. people are talking over each other -- >> yeah. when i really -- and i really -- like everybody in my family is smarter than i am. all of my friends are smarter than i am. growing up were smarter than i was. and i really started to enjoy the sound of smart people arguing with each other. and i wanted to imitate that: when you hear people talking in public, do you make mental notes? do you think oh, that might be something i work into -- >> come in on the

having a sandwich in a diner or something and i can hear the people in the next booth and one of them is really angryys, i mean, how many people can you think of named gordon? [ laughter ] and i'll think, i just wanteginning of that conversation and see if i can get there, if i can get to that line. >> jimmy: that line that i mentioned in your introduction, "you can't handlewhen you wrote that did you know that that was great? >> i liked the line. i didn't think it was going -- i never imagined that it would --ger king would use it, you know, you can't handle this whopper, that kind of thing. [ laughter ] >> jimmy: were you there when -- >> to have that kind of great -- >> jimmy: when jack nicholson was filming it. >> oh, sure. he is for real. he's a total pro. you know, the big speech that he has. >> jimmy: yeah. >> which is"you can't handle the truth." we spent the entire day just

that part of the scene.nt where he didn't need to be there anymore, where we were doing the coverage of other people, where you're not pointing the camera at jack ointing the camera at the jurors, at the judge, at the defendants, at the lawyers, that kind of thing. it's called coverage.ob reiner, said jack, you don't have to keep doing this three-page speech. we can send you home and just a.d. read it off camera. and he said -- i can't do the voice. he said, "no, i just love to ept doing it all day and all night. >> jimmy: that's almost lunacy, isn't it? >> yeah. there's nothing like having your your first movie be with jack nicholson. >> jimmy: i would think not. i tell you, i can't recommend the movie highly enough. it's called "steve jobs." if you haven't as aaron mentioned you haven't -- [ cheers and applause ] go see it. aaron sorkin, everybody.
