[ cheers and applause ] >> jimmy: all right, welcome. welcome to the show. thank you for watching. thank you for -- coming out. i see you have enthusiasm. thank you, did you know o-- not sure if you're aware of this, but -- [ cheers and applause ] >> jimmy: this week, this week is national nude recreation week. that is right. it is nude recreation week, also known as put a towel down before you sit week. it is an annual event created by a group called the naturists society 38 years ago. it is a powerful reminder that the human body is disgusting. with a few notable exceptions

should be covered at all times. apparently there are nude artists, beaches, canoing, it was sponsored by the group, nude recreation, and this is their actual president. i'm not kidding. that is the publicity shot. [ cheers and applause ] >> jimmy: i tell you, you think you don't like to visit your grandmother. i think the worst ad ever. i will not be participating this year, i have a very strict policy. if you want to see me naked, you have to pay. speaking of naked, the former disgraced governor, eliot spitzer is running for the comptroller. some people thought his political career was over five years ago when it was revealed he was employing a small army of

prostitutes to tend to his nether regions. but they were mistaken, because new yorkers are a forgiving bunch. >> former governor eliot spitzer was swarmed by the media, heckles by critics, and forgiven by fans. >> yeah, give him a shot, y'all, everybody like women, women like women. >> jimmy: well, he does have a point. [ cheers and applause ] >> jimmy: hire that guy and put him in charge of bumper stickers or something. that is a good slogan. i'm delighted to announce that we're less than a week away from the triumphant return of the twinkie. it will rise again july 5th, because without twinkies, how are people supposed to know they're making bad decisions at gas stations? >> hostess will claim they have

a longer shelf life, now they will last for 45 days. i'm going to go out on a limb and say that most people buying twinkies are too high to hold on to them for 45 days, i would be impressed with 45 seconds. according to the new report from the united nations, the united states is no longer the fattest major country in the world. [ cheers and applause ] >> jimmy: i was -- this is what happens when you take paula deen off the air. you know what the new obese country of the world is? our neighbor to the south, that is right. mexico. every since they started to put zippers on their pinatas they really packed on the pounds, 70% of their population is overweight, 30% is considered obese, i have an idea, don't

re-fry the beans, we are fat, now if canada ever gets fat, the continent could sink into the ocean. guillermo, are you proud of this? >> no. >> jimmy: now, you have lost a few pounds as of late, right? >> yes, 20 pounds. >> jimmy: i don't believe that for a second, really, 20 pounds? >> yes. >> jimmy: this morning, guillermo tweeted, i like natural juices, they are doing a great job for my body. i didn't know sunny d was a natural juice. well, what are like the top three things they're doing for your body? >> well, they made me full, so i don't have to eat as much. >> jimmy: are they vegetable juices? >> yeah, they're vegetable juices and i have more energy.

>> jimmy: all right, you can't argue with the results. i never had a vegetable margarita, you will have to make me one. all right, when they throw out the pitch, it can go badly. that was not the case in south korea, but an olympic gymnast was asked to throw out the first pitch, and boy, did she. [ speaking in a foreign language ] >> oh wow! >> jimmy: pretty good, right? i would like to see a whole team of this. you know, being able to do something like that is a rare gift and i wanted to find a way to illustrate just how rare it is. so i sent guillermo to the baseball diamond across the street today to try to replicate the first pitch. [ laughter ]

>> jimmy: close, try it one more time. [ cheers and applause ] >> jimmy: is perfecto spanish for terrible? >> no, perfect. >> jimmy: it is not too late to cast your ballots to send guillermo to the major league all-star game. over in london, the country is biscuiting about the impending birth of princess kate and prince william's baby, our friends at abc world news is on scene. >> kate is due to give birth any minute now, i just want to show you the interest of the world. just take a look, poised for the historic moment. >> there must be one, two, three guys out there. i don't know -- here is a

strange story out of florida, where most strange stories are born. state lawmakers have just learned that they may have accidentally banned all computers and smartphones in the state of florida, back in april, the governor signed a bill into law that was meant to crack down on the on-line gambling. one of the bills passed was to crack down on the gambling. which means smartphones, tablets and computers. you can gamble on them electronically, and technically, it means phones and computers are now illegal in the state of florida. and while you think people would be upset by this, some politicians are actually embracing it and trying to use it to sway older voters. >> we're tired of computers that you can't even figure out how to open up the internet window thing to get your in-log. and what is this button on there? he never answers the phone, have

you seen these phones? they're worse than the computers, bluetooth, what is wrong with the old kind you could dial and talk to a person? a white person. florida doesn't need a lot of new-fangled gadgets. this november, say no to the thingamajigs, and give florida what they really need. >> bob janklow, bird feeders, not thingamajigs. [ cheers and applause ] >> jimmy: this is funny, there was a former mitt romney campaign office in tennessee, they had a bunch of left-over t-shirts from the election last year. so instead of just throwing them away, they donated them to a village in kenya. and there they are in their new clothes. it seems like they realize this is funny, right? look how excited this kid is.

do you think they know we're sending them all of our loser t-shirts all the time? either way obama is going to be furious when he gets home and sees this. in colorado, the police were plea puzzled by a mysterious crime after a 16-year-old boy dressed as batman, robbed two tvs, a laptop and a cash register. the reason we know he is dressed as batman, they got him on security camera. i think what is most impressive he took the time to put on the batman costume, covering every part of his body except his face. and there is one difference in this version of the batman story, his parents killed themselves. the burglar got so much attention on the local news, the kid ended up turning himself in. charged with second degree burglary, criminal mischief and

having the lamest batman costume in the state of colorado. there is a big tv event coming up on thursday, i'm excited about it. the sci-fi channel is premiering a movie about sharks. i believe daniel day-lewis is playing -- maybe a shark or tornado, i'm not sure. but the sci-fi channel loves making movies about sharks, they had shark-to-pus, and now, shark-nato. they get big ratings, what seems to get the best ratings on cable are sharks and the bible. so it only makes sense that the producers would bring them together for this incredible television event. >> the spiritual leader who would change history. >> a vicious predator out for human blood. one would heal, the other would kill, but only one would

survive. "shark versus jesus" only on spike. >> jimmy: i'm rooting for jesus. [ cheers and applause ] >> jimmy: we're going to take a break, when we come back, i have some questions for kids. plus, kevin bacon, diane kruger, and music from the bacon brothers. ♪ ♪ ♪ ♪ [ female announcer ] delta touch2o technology for your kitchen and bathroom. precisely in tune with every touch. see what delta can do.

>> jimmy: welcome back to the show. i predict that kevin bacon, diane kruger and the bacon brothers are in your future. let me tell you something about me, i believe in one thing and that is that children are our

future. which, who wouldn't believe in that, by the way? of course they're or future, we'll die and they will still be here. nobody should be arguing about that. but from time to time i like to sit a group of children down to see what they think of important questions, unfortunately, i couldn't think of important questions. so i asked them some dumb stuff and here is what they had to say. who is the richest person in the world? >> a pirate. >> jimmy: a pirate? why a pirate? >> because they have a lot of gold. >> that is true, who is the richest person in the world? >> the presidents. >> jimmy: the presidents? how much do the presidents make? >> at least a thousand a month. >> jimmy: thousand? yeah, they make 12 grand a year. the actor of batman, do you know his name? >> yeah, bruce wayne.

could you imagine if when we cut our hair blood came out of it? would be so gross, right? >> yeah, and funny. >> jimmy: and funny. >> and sometimes we don't remember. >> jimmy: sometimes we don't remember? like when? like when we're drunk? >> when it is friday -- >> jimmy: when it is friday -- you're saying that is why it doesn't hurt when we cut our hair? >> yeah. >> jimmy: interesting. >> when people cut your hair you just have to stay calm. and just hope this is someone you can trust when someone cuts your hair. >> jimmy: you have to put a lot of trust in that person when they have a pair of scissors near your hair, yeah, they will cut your hair or nose right off if you're not careful. >> yeah. >> jimmy: why does it hurt when you cut yourself but it doesn't hurt when you cut your hair? >> uhhhhhhhhhhh, i don't know.

>> jimmy: can i please shave your head? >> no, can i shave your head? >> jimmy: if i shave your head, then i'll shave your head. >> that doesn't make any sense. >> jimmy: what do you mean it doesn't make any sense? you said you wanted me to shave your head. >> no, i don't want you to -- >> jimmy: can we roll back the tape? can i please shave your head? >> yes. [ cheers and applause ] >> jimmy: yes, you did say you wanted me to shave your head. >> no! you! >> jimmy: can i get some shavers and a razor please? now this is getting weird.

time in the kitchen, trying to find the caterer's number. >> jimmy: i'm glad you mentioned that. your wife, kyra sedgwick, she is a delightful person. >> i think so too. >> jimmy: but you are not, while your wife was in the emergency room, you were very busy snapping photographs of her and posting them on twitter. what -- now, she has a bloody finger here. >> you know, in case people are not really aware of this, you really can screw up on twitter. >> jimmy: yeah, you can. and it happens like that. and there is no putting that genie back in the bottle. >> it is gone, it's gone. >> jimmy: although she does seem to be sokay. that is a cartoonist's bandage, that is like one of mickey

mouse's fingers. >> for some reason, i don't know how that made its way into our lives, but it just seems -- >> jimmy: it is riding a huge wave. >> is this going to be the history known as kale -- we started eating, she can't get through the day without kale, you do a lot of chopping, you got to chop that stuff up. and i actually chopped my finger pretty badly. and i was you know, kind of trying to man up. she was like no, dude, you're going to the hospital. and when i got to the doctor he said yeah, you should be here, because it is hanging off and -- and you need stitches. >> jimmy: it is one of the signs. >> and about a week ago, mine is all healed up. we're getting ready to have dinner and she is chopping away. and she is like oh, oh, i

chopped it off. and -- so -- so. >> jimmy: when you hear that sentence, you really probably hope it is her finger. if you're waking up at that moment, no! >> yeah, yeah, you got o-- anywy -- >> jimmy: she took it well. >> yeah, she took it well. she is a tough cookie. i said we're going to the hospital now. and my brother-in-law is there, sifting through the kale, trying to find -- >> jimmy: did he find it? >> no, truth is we do have dogs. >> jimmy: oh, yes, but -- >> is this too gross right now -- because it is pretty late but the thing is, we didn't know how much of it was gone. and it is -- there is really not -- it is really okay.

and it was mostly -- mostly nail, and whatever. and you know -- i wasn't thinking i thought, well, you know this is a hard thing. scary when you go to the hospital and they ask you all of these questions and so. well, what religion are you? >> jimmy: are you circumcised? seems e seems -- >> i said honey, can i take a shot? can i tweet it? people thought it was a bloody over-share. >> jimmy: now, this is something you tweeted, as well. and i have to know the story here. i grew up in las vegas, i don't know if you were aware of that. >> i am aware of that. >> jimmy: this is a photograph. that is a young kevin bacon leaving the baracci, and matt

damon. [ cheers and applause ] >> that is amazing. matt has not aged a day. he looks great. >> jimmy: how did this happen? >> okay, so -- well, after i saw that amazing movie "behind the candleabra" with michael douglas, who was incredible. i remembered having met him and dug up this photograph. and the whole thing sort of came back to me. that was around the time when -- i don't remember that much. but -- >> jimmy: you went to see his show? >> i went to see his show at radio city music hall. and i got a call from somebody saying liberace is a giant kevin bacon fan and would really like you to be there at the opening night. and it is black tie. and in this case i was in a horrible white tux. >> jimmy: you look good.

>> oh, my god. >> jimmy: that looks like the actual wedding --ñi >> i know, it is bad. so i said ska, well, i'll go. you know, this is going to be an interesting kind of cultural event. i didn't really know the music that well. it was amazing, he comes out in rolls royces, and he has the mink coats and playing his ass off in the candleabra. he says he is very excited about meeting you, can you come back stage. he said kevin bacon is here, he said hello, keith. so nice to meet you. he had no idea who i was. >> jimmy: that was a bummer. >> yeah, i was bummed. >> jimmy: although, maybe that was for the best, your life could have turned out differently. you could have been tweeting

and watch him work. and you know, every actor has their own sort of like process, some people like super series, they have to kind of stay in character all the time, they're always that person. other people break it off. jeff's situation is really interesting. he does this really unusual thing between takes. i'll give you an example, one is playing guitar, sits around and plays, plays old everly brothers tunes and things like that. second thing is, he likes to have people read chapters of books out loud. he will be sitting there reading a book, a chapter, and like well, it is your turn. you sit there and read this chapter out loud. you have to pick the next actor, whoever sits there. really we're ready to shoot. >> jimmy: does he not know about books on tape? >> well, he is all about the shared experience. and the third thing is, i don't know if you're familiar with

this game called "pass the pigs"? at first i thought it was a joke on me, being a bacon and all. >> jimmy: playing a cop, too. >> it was kind of a rubber pig, one has a dot on it. you roll them and they either stand on their noses or on each other. or whatever. and you try, it is kind of like a dice game. and we all have those director's chairs with the actor's names on the back. but in front of jeff is a little table with a "pass the pig" set. and we would play like constantly. >> jimmy: did somebody win? is there any money involved? >> no, there is no money involved, you win, it is like yeah, okay. pass the pigs. >> jimmy: i think he is going to be here on thursday. well, thank you for being here, always great to see you, happy birthday again.

many years. >> jimmy: in inglourious basterds, you had a german accent -- >> no problem at all, well, actually it did. i was trying to get this job, and quentin tarantino did not believe i was from germany. i had to fly there to prove i had a passport. >> jimmy: do people not believe him that much? you had to fly to germany -- why does that prove it to him? anyone can fly to germany? >> it is just so crazy, our business, you spend years trying to lose an accent, and then finally comes the part that is actually naturally your accent, and they go no, sorry, too american. >> jimmy: well, we have an english superman now, all hell has broken loose here. >> i know. >> jimmy: i hope you don't mind me sayining this, georgbut germ seems from our perspective has unusual taste when it comes to

musicians. 49, david hasselhoff, who i mentioned, is inexplicably popular over there. >> very true. >> jimmy: and you have an affinity for -- >> not so much david hasselhoff, but i do admit when i was very young i had a huge crush on don johnson, not for -- you would think "miami vice," but he made an album -- >> jimmy: heart beat -- was that the title? >> i don't remember, but it was my first kiss, in the trailer park -- >> jimmy: you made out with don johnson at 13 years old in a trailer park? >> i would have liked to have made out with him, but no, some boy, i can't remember his name. but don johnson to me, is like still to this day.
