[ applause ] ♪ >> jimmy: how are you? very good to see you. >> it's so good to see you. can we talk for a second about how creepily he said "charlize theron"? >> jimmy: well, there is some back story there. it's not creepy, but affectionate because their kids are on the same soccer team, right? and she will kiss you when sees you. and everybody, the parents, the coaches, his friends in the park go bananas because she charlize is kissing. >> went from creepy to jealous all in one. >> jimmy: there is some chemistry there. >> i can tell. >> guillermo: sorry, josh. >> jimmy: how are you? you just back to the united states. >> i just got back from australia friday. >> jimmy: how long were you there? >> three months. >> jimmy: that's a great place to be for three months. >> it's incredible. it's a really far place to be for three months. >> jimmy: yeah, right. >> when you have children. >> jimmy: oh, your kids weren't over there was? >> they were there for six weeks, and then they went to school. >> jimmy: that seems like enough, though, right? six weeks? >> yeah, it was great. afterwards they were like -- every time i would call them, dad, yeah. but no, it was blast. i had a great time. >> jimmy: isn't it funny when you get the kids, oh, i miss the kids. and they probably really miss me. and then you get them on the pf cannot stay. ahhh. >> daddy, i got to go to this soccer game with charlize theron. i don't want to be with you. >> jimmy: did you encounter any deadly beasts or creatures in australia? >> australia's got a bad rep because they have deadly spiders. i love the one guy who is yes, i've heard about this. deadly spiders and snakes and stuff. but i didn't encounter them. i encountered something else that was pretty weird. it's weird. >> jimmy: okay. >> so i got an apartment in bondi beach, which is in australia. a beautiful beach. >> jimmy: oh, yeah. >> and i walked in. and it was my kids' last week there. my daughter walks in. how cool was this place? and it was really cool, but there was some weird artwork everywhere, i want to say like circa 18th century, or "game of thrones" style art all over the place. and there is a painting of conquistadors and a painting of a woman looking very scared about something. and just some weird paintings. and my daughter looks at me and she goes "are you sure you want the stay here, da da?" and i say sweetie, it's fine. it's just artwork. it's fine. and it turns out she was very prophetic. so i was staying there. and one night -- now i don't believe in ghosts and stuff. it's not like a thing that i'm -- i've had no experiences with them. but one night i'm there, and in the middle of the night, i wake up and i hear what sounds like two spanish men from the 17th century whispering to each other over my face. just imagine waking up and hearing [ speaking spanish ] what? what's happening. >> jimmy: over your face? >> over my face. probably came from like the air duct or something. but it felt in my face. so i go to work the next day, and i tell this story. how did you sleep? not very well. they're like why? i heard two spanish men in my room. and one of the people who works there is like oh, yeah. i've got the perfect -- this is an australian accent, by the way. she goes yeah? i've got the perfect solution for you. what you want to do is get sage, and you want to go around the house and ask them nicely to leave. and i said okay where am -- and she goes i've got some. sage? she's like yeah. she gives me sage. i swear to god this is all true. she gives me sage. i walk around the house. my assistant taylor is there. and i'm walking around, and i'm going please, ghosts, leave. please leave. >> jimmy: in english you're saying this? >> por favor, go away. hasta luego. espiritu santo. i do this and i got good sleep. the sleep lasted for about two weeks. >> jimmy: oh. >> jimmy. >> jimmy: oh? >> no. two weeks later i wake up and the lights are flickering in my bathroom. and they hadn't flickered before. again, i'm sure there was an excuse, an electrical circuit or something, or spirits. and so i -- i'm freaking out at this point. now i sleep -- any of you sleep with white noise, like a white noise app? same guy is yeah. i do that too. so i'm sleeping with a white noise app. and it goes off. now this thing doesn't go off unless you push it, unless you stop it. or it's never gone off for me. so i'm really upset at this point. so the next night i test it. and i swear to god, this is all true. and i'm mortified telling this to a national audience. but i go please don't shut off my white noise machine. it will freak me out. within a minute, it shut off. >> jimmy: really? >> okay. at this point, i'm having a heart attack. so i go to work the next day, and they go you look tired. and i said i am. and they said what's going on? i said they're back. and i explain this. now a co-star, different person completely goes you've got a haunting going on. i say yeah? she goes yeah, i've got someone who can deal with that. have a guy for this?n australia- so she says to me, you call this woman and you -- she doesn't come to your house. she does it remotely. now i should have said at this point [ bleep ] off. but instead i call the number. >> jimmy: called her on the phone? >> call her on the phone. i go do you want to zoom so i can show you around my creepy apartment and like maybe where they're hanging out? she is nah, nah, i don't need to do that. i don't have zoom. okay. that's problematic. so instead she goes just draw a blueprint. i'm not an artist. i'm an overweight actor. what am i going to do. >> jimmy: draw? >> draw a blueprint. so i draw a blueprint. i take a picture, and i send it to her. she calls me. i'm out at dinner. she goes yeah, there is some weird stuff going on in there. so i'm like all right. you can see that from my rudimentary blueprint? yeah, i can feel them. so the next day i get a ten-page report of the different ghosts in my house. there is a mixture. some of them are ghost busters kind of ghosts. some of them are really like exorcist style demons, according to her. so she gives me this book report. and she's like that will be 300 american dollars. i pay the $300. i sleep great. at this point, my assistant is like you've lost your mind. you are not well. this is insane. five days before we leave, we walk into the apartment. i go into my room. taylor goes josh, can you come here? i go yeah. she goes so, there is this light on in the room, and that light was a broken light bulb that i put in there. and that shouldn't be on. and i said that's your problem now.
