[ cheers and applause ] thank you, everybody. very nice. thank you for watching. thanks. you know we have weird morning here. all the schools in los angeles were closed today because someone -- they haven't figured out who yet -- sent the school system a threatening e-mail. they got a similar note in new york. they decided it was a hoax, the schools stayed open. here in l.a. we have so many implants we don't know the difference between real and fake anymore. more than 700,000 students were told not to come to school today which meant lot of our staff members had to bring their kids into the office. so since they were here we decided to put them to work. i actually had one of them write a joke for the monologue. and let's see what he came up with here. let's see. "star wars" is opening on friday.

because they love to go to the moo-vies. [ cheers and applause ] i don't get it. cows don't go to the movies. it doesn't make any sense at all. this is a terrible joke. you come into my office and you give me a joke like this? what's wrong with you? i mean, you know, you know that house you live in? the reason that your parents are able to pay the rent is because your father works on this show. and now i get a joke like this -- you're fired. get out of here. take this joke with you. yeah, no, no, you can't -- you have to -- you can't - -you can't coddle them. we're going to need the headset, too. yeah.

the snack table. [ applause ] it has a sadder ending than i anticipated. you guys know this isn't real, right? right, guillermo? >> right, jimmy. >> jimmy: you know, this time of year students in illinois, they participate in something called dial a carol. something they came up with in 1960. people call them and request a song and then the students sing the song for them live. so they open the lines at midnight on thursday. so far they've received more than 11,000 calls which is incredible. they finally figured out a way to make music come out of your phone. but it's popular. it's so popular, in fact, this style of carol that the idea is spreading to other religions. >> if you like dial a carol you'll love han-a-call.

your favorite hanukkah songs. >> what tune would you like to hear today? the driedle song? sure thing. dradel dradel dradel and when it's dry and ready oh dreidel i will play >> we know every hanukkah song in the book. and we're ready to sing it for wow. >> you want to hear the dradel song? okay. >> 24 hours a day, eight nights of hanukkah. >> let me guess, the [ bleep ] dradel song! i made it out of clay >> what are you waiting for? i made it out of clay >> gary, are you going the hanukkah thing again? we talked about this. you're fired. >> jimmy: that's it.

kid i fired, that's his father. [ laughter ] this is funny. we scour the news every day for anything local that might be of interest nationally. cbs affiliate in rochester, minnesota. into a live news event of the ages. >> we first today turn to the bank investigation. we are live with more. adam? >> tyler, just 24 hours ago this bank in -- >> that guy right there. >> what? >> that's the robber. >> oh, that's the robber. this is live tv, folks. that's the robber that just went by, according to the bank employee. so i got to go here and call 911. i'll talk to you later. [ cheers and applause ] >> jimmy: they'll definitely get an emmy. that's how "fargo" season 3 starts. [ laughter ]

and friends, it took place at the venetian hotel in las vegas, moderated by celine dion. this is the fifth debate between the republican candidates and one big question still remains unanswered. that question is, who the hell is this man? i think he's my dad's friend from work. but i could be wrong. all the big names were there. trump, cruz, carson, chris christie got moved up from what they call the kids' table to the main debate. apparently he ate everything on the kids' table so they had to move him. the reason chris christie is picking up steam, he points out the other candidates want to build walls or beef up border patrols. he's the only candidate with an actual experience in stopping people from getting where they want to go. he stopped thousands of people in new jersey from crossing the bridge into new york. he can do that with mexico, too, folks. [ laughter ]

center stage. trump now holds a very big lead in the national polls. trump leads ted cruz by 27 points in the new monmouth poll and he's also way ahead in the new lat moth poll. i don't know if i trust these polls. basically donald trump is leading among people who still answer their landline at their house. you know? donald trump is going to be with us tomorrow night. and he will be here in studio. he says a lot of interesting stuff, so we decided to have fun with that. to prepare for his visit we went on the street and asked people if they had heard about a bunch of things that we made up in this donald trump edition of "lie witness news." >> i'm sure you saw that rally in ohio where donald trump wore the diaper and swung the baby bottle around, i'm a democrat, someone change my dipy. did that help or hurt his legitimacy? >> it hurt.

>> i probably heard about it. >> were you surprised when you heard donald trump say guns don't kill people, marco rubio's cousins do. >> coming from donald trump, not at all. >> where did you hear about that? >> always the news and/or the internet. donald trump. muslims have some people comparing them with hitler. himself from donald trump. this morning hitler tweeted, trump can kiss my wiener schnitzel. what did you think? >> i thought it was pretty funny. >> did you see that? >> i saw it on twitter. >> people have been talking about it? twitter. >> people are laughing saying they're glad donald trump is disqualified from the presidency. >> by hitler? >> by hitler. >> what did you think of donald trump's statement, if it's brown, flush it down to mexico? >> i thought -- >> flush all that brown down to mexico. that? >> i agree with him. it's true, yeah.

>> i still thought, oh, my god, did you really say that? >> where were you when you saw him say that? >> i was at home. on television. i was like, oh, my god, did he really just say that. >> do me a favor, guys, look in the camera and tell donald trump what you want to tell him? >> go, go, go, you're going to be a good president. >> donald trump, i love you. keep being you. >> that's what we need, a great businessman like donald trump to run our country. >> absolutely. >> good man, like him. >> keep on rocking it, man. >> you're not lying, are you? >> no, absolutely not. [ applause ] >> jimmy: part of what makes the holiday season festive is the music, holiday music. our musical guest tonight is the one and only seal. [ cheers and applause ] seal is a grammy award winner. tonight he's releasing a new project specifically for the holidays for anyone who loves christmas, for what it really is. >> hello, i'm seal.

[ applause ] >> jimmy: we have a very good show for you tonight. we have music from seal from espn chris fowler and kirk herbstreit here and my old pal john krasinski is visiting. we have a holiday tradition of pulling -- what have become elaborate pranks on each other. he started it. four years ago john and his wife emily broke into my house and they put a lit up snowman and santa in my living room. so i got them back. a couple of days later i bought a neon insurance sign from craigslist and put it in their front yard. john, i don't think this was even christmas. found a garden zombie in the sky mall and he planted it in our garden. which i will tell you when you go out in the garden and happen upon that, terrifying. scary. next year i got ahold of 26-foot inflatable reindeer and i inflated it in front of his house and added reindeer poop while we were at it.

i sent eight trucks worth of holiday decorations and a huge crew to wrap his whole house. we gift wrapped his house. and then he came home from work and happened upon it. and i figured, that would be it, right? that would be the end of this. but it wasn't because last year they wrapped my car. and i knew it was him when i saw it. they filled it with glass ornaments. and this, by the way, yeah, they all came out. this -- this didn't happen only once. the next night i went out to the car again and it was wrapped again. and then there were people in the car this time. christmas carollers popped out and sang.

a guest here on the show, john surprised me with this. now, this is -- that's john in front of my car that he banged into the wall. yeah. and dropped a piano on my car. so this year it's on. i mean, it's -- there's no baby jesus anymore. okay? and we will share the results of what was done to me in just a few minutes. we'll be right back with john krasinski.

outdoor stage. tomorrow night, we have quite a show tomorrow night, we'll have donald trump, music from gary clark jr and a new edition of mean tweets. so please join us for that. we have a very funny actor and dangerous neighbor who has transformed his body into that of a navy s.e.a.l. he stars in the new michael bay movie, "19 hours: the secret soldiers of benghazi." >> i'm thinking of my girl, man. i'm thinking, what would they say about me? he died in a place he didn't need to be in a battle over something he doesn't understand in a country that meant nothing to him. every time i go home to becky and those girls, i think, this

and then something happens and i end up back here. why is that? why can't i go home? why can't i go home and just stay there? >> jimmy: "13 hours: the secret soldiers of benghazi." it opens january 15th. please welcome john krasinski. [ cheers and applause ] >> thank you. >> jimmy: guillermo told me you had a pit bull back there and i believed it. >> i saw your reaction, does he? [ laughter ] that was amazing. >> jimmy: before we get to the prank story, this is not your typical michael bey movie. there's action but it's real based on a real story. >> yeah, based on the most incredible true story about -- it's a story i don't think a lot of people know. i think people think they know about benghazi.

until i read the book. the true heroes wrote the book and it's about the six guys that went in to try to save ambassador stevens that night and ended up saving 29 american lives. they were under siege by 250, 290 guys, for 13 hours straight. it's a pretty harrowing story. >> jimmy: you play a real >> i do. i do, yeah. >> jimmy: is he named in the movie? >> in the book he's actually one of the guys that's still remaining confidential but in the book they call him jack silva. and he's a navy seal and basically the story is, they're contractors by the cia. time. the crazy part about this story is they have no obligation to go. so they didn't have to go in and save anybody. they could have just stayed where they were and stayed safe and they put their lives on the line immediately. >> jimmy: did you meet the man you're playing in the movie? >> i did. he's such an incredible guy. amazing to see these guys how unassuming they are.

if you saw them at bar, you wouldn't go, you're a navy s.e.a.l. they're just the greatest, good guys who do these things without any hesitation. >> jimmy: you had to go on a diet and start working out in a way that was -- i felt like it was infringing on my fun. it's true. >> it's true. we didn't have any fun. i just came over and drank water at your house, basically. >> jimmy: you can't eat anything. you can't drink. what was your regimen? what was the workout you went through for this? >> basically eating salads and chicken and water. and working out all the time. we did two-a-day workouts with my trainer jason walsh who is a really great guy. >> jimmy: seven days a week you worked out? >> probably five and six days a week, twice a day. i was doing, let's do it, get the bench press going. he said, no, drag that sled from here to there. i thought, how hard is that? it was so awful. >> jimmy: what was your body fat percentage?

television. my body fat was, i believe, 25%. >> jimmy: that's good, right? >> no, no. >> jimmy: 75% % t fat. >> i thought so, too. not bad, right? he was like, it's awful. it's awful. and then by the time i did the movie by body fat was 9%. >> jimmy: so this is -- [ applause ] -- this came out tonight. this is "men's health" magazine. i'm very upset because i really feel i should have been invited to this photo shoot. "how john got jacked." [ laughter ] where is the guy who jacked you? is he in the alley? >> he tried to take my leather jacket, so i had to take it off and hold it, protect it. >> jimmy: let's look at the spoilers on the big screen so people can really see. there you are bike riding. that's a bike. >> that really shows it off. shows off all the work. >> jimmy: that's a good one. there you're pononring, deep in thought. >> just before i got mugged.

oh, there you are. >> thank you. i think we have one more. yeah, yeah. my goodness. >> yeah. >> jimmy: i mean, you're greasy and mumuular and all of that stuff. this is so exciting. >> you never say stuff like a to to me. >> jimmy: i say you're greasy sometimes. i have the body of not a navy s.e.a.l. but an actual seal. like a harbor seal. [ laughter and applause ] >> no, my biggest regret is that i didn't get to eat with you at your house. >> jimmy: now plenty of time. >> he comes home and the first thing he does is cook pizzas and spaghetti to just like calm down. >> jimmy: what? >> yeah. i throw on "game of thrones" and pass out. that's the difference between >> jimmy: we're going to take a break here. when we come back i told the audience a little bit about our holiday annual prank war. we're going see how jimmy got jacked when we come back.

prank show. you guys -- now, there was a prank on halloween. and maybe you should start off telling us a little bit about this, what happened. >> well, first of all, it's not -- >> first of all -- >> first of all, i think it's more like a little surprise than a prank. it wasn't at that level. but halloween eve we're in philadelphia. there's a haunted penitentiary where al capone was once jailed. they have a halloween month long thing. it's scary. you are grabbed by goblins and you navigate through it. kirk said he was going to be there but babaed out at the last minute and went to something even scarier, 76ers game and sat courtside. we thought we would bring the show to him in the booth on halloween night. >> i'm not a fan. >> jimmy: is that the way it went? >> no, i said i wasn't going. there's no chance i'm going. >> jimmy: and then they wound up bringing a zombie on camera. >> looked like notre dame was

not a big a deal. everybody else said they were terrified. tonight i asked your guys if we could do this. >> jimmy: we did. we are very accommodating in that way. >> yes. >> see you. >> you got it. >> all right, chris. >> [ bleep ].

don't go to work on new year's eve. because 4:00 eastern, 1:00 pacific is the first semifinals. you can't be productive on new year's eve anyway. >> jimmy: you need to take the day off. >> yes, take the day off. for the night game make sure whatever party you're going to has the tv on. >> in all seriousness. it's a new thing for espn. the college football game is on new year's eve which is different from january 1st or 11th. yeah, we had a 4:00 p.m. eastern kick with oklahoma and clemson. then 8:00 the game chris and i will call is michigan state and alabama from dallas in the cotton bowl. controversy, people got mad about the four teams chosen. it wasn't the case this year. they have all of these smart people on the committee and they spent all these hours. at the end of the day, you could have had have added guillermo, your friend yaya, captain america. if you gave them the piece of paper they would have done it and been right. >> jimmy: will you make a pick on the games? i know you don't typically do it. >> the game that i call, i won't. i'm safe there.

other game. i'll probably pick oklahoma. i think oklahoma is the most complete team right now. i think oklahoma is the team to beat in the orange bowl. >> jimmy: i imagine that, you could turn the whole new year's eve celebration upside-down now. you could ruin it for everyone.
