Thank you, roots hey everybody, lets get to the news and jokes well, guys, the final president ial debate is just a few days away, and the organizers are trying to make sure it goes smoother than the first one. Listen to what they came up with after that first debate debacle, in an effort to limit interruptions at this thursdays match up, the commissioner of president ial debates said that it will mute the microphones of President Trump and joe biden to allow each candidate two minutes of uninterrupted time at the start of each segment jimmy yeah, good luck with that [ laughter ] if you mute trumps mic, hell just run across the stage and yell into bidens. Wrong wrong what he just said was wrong. Back to you. Thats the current state of our politics we need a mute button. Meanwhile, americans were like, oh, dont worry weve already been doing that. For a long time. [ laughter ] yeah, for trump, the only thing scarier than a mute button is the s. A. P. Button. [ light laughter ] trabajo el wallo. [ laughter ] and this is good, if the mute button doesnt work, Kristen Welker will have a a water spritzer to spray the candidates its more humane yeah, it goes mute button, water spritzer, then lowering the podium into a hole in the ground [ laughter ] i say forget about muting the mics just give whoevers interrupting the helium voice. Hes absolutely wrong obamacare is no good. We made it better. Questlove yeah jimmy meanwhile, the debate hasnt even happened yet and trump is already attacking the moderator. Listen to what he said this morning on fox friends. Look, these people are not good people. Savannah guthrie, i knew what i was getting into it worked out fine, but she was out of line. She was totally out of line. But so was chris wallace, he was terrible and i was the one that told you people about scully. Kristen welker is far worse than scully. But i do it anyway jimmy it used to be an honor to be asked to moderate. Now its like getting invited to a wedding during the pandemic how do i get out of this [ laughter ] with trump trailing in the polls, a lot of republican senators have started to distance themselves from the president. At this point a lot of them dont want to be seen with him apparently, they have their own excuse generator if he asks to get together ill show you how it works for instance, when trump asks john cornyn to get together, he said [ beeping im already very busy playing the dad on every cw show [ laughter ] next, when trump asked steve daines, he said [ beeping i would but im busy transforming from a man back into a boy [ laughter ] next, when trump asked senator ben sasse if he wanted to hang out, he said [ beeping im busy tonight performing with my daft punk cover band, sasse punk [ laughter ] next, when trump asked rick oh [ laughter ] he said [ beeping i have a meeting with my other leader, zoltar [ laughter ] and finally, when trump asked roy blunt, he said [ beeping im sorry, i already have plans that day to steal christmas. [ laughter and applause well, guys, with two weeks left until election day, candidates are making their Closing Arguments to really drive home their message. Heres one from trump. If youre italian, do you happen to like christofor columbus christofor. Huh . [ laughter ] jimmy what what do you like christofor columbus . Guys, listen to this during one of his rallies, trump said that after his covid treatment, he felt like superman then the crowd started chanting check this out i woke up the next morning, and i was like, i felt like superman i felt good. I said, get me out of here boom, superman superman superman superman jimmy oh ohhoho yeah, trumps superman he can even leap short ramps in a slow hobble. [ laughter ] trumps a little different than superman with him, you hear, its a bird, its a plane, its a a man eating fried bird on his plane. [ laughter ] all i know is, id pay good money to watch trump try to put on spandex inside a phone booth. Just saying. Tariq yeah jimmy some more news about the president. Hes been criticizing sounded like tone loc just showed up. [ laughter ] tariq lets do it. Jimmy lets do it. Yes. [ laughter ] oh some more news about the president. Hes been criticizing dr. Fauci a lot lately, and during a a radio interview, fauci made a pretty interesting comparison listen to this its like in the godfather, nothing personal, strictly business. As far as im concerned. Jimmy yeah, i have a a feeling trumps gonna wake up tomorrow with the head of his golf club in his tanning bed then fauci got real nasty and called trump the godfather iii of president s. [ laughter ] meanwhile, after every trump rally, the coronavirus is like, just when i thought i was out, he pulls me back in. Well, this morning trump responded on fox friends by once again making fun of dr. Faucis first pitch. Look, hes a nice guy hes got a really bad arm. Not a good baseball thrower. Jimmy when are these two gonna stop fighting and just hook up already . Namecalling, making fun of his athletic ability next, trumps gonna knock faucis books out of his hands you dropped something, nerd. Mr. Fauci i dont know what that means it doesnt even make sense trumps argument is basically, hes a terrible scientist, he cant even throw a baseball. I wouldnt trust his opinion on the disease, he cant even dunk he cant even dunk [ laughter ] wait, cant even dunk. Also, you dont exactly come across as the biggest jock when you say, baseball thrower. [ laughter ] hes also a terrible bat rounder. Trump thinks hes a baseball expert now because hes on about 18 different steroids. [ laughter ] hey. Too soon. Jimmy not soon enough. Not soon enough. The pitch wasnt that bad. Can we see it again . All right. Yeah, theres still no defending that sorry. What tariq in faucis defense questlove hey. [ laughter and applause jimmy no, no, no that was no, no, no no,that was look you were under a lot of pressure and questlove come on, man move on. Jimmy yeah if you want to know what a real ball player looks like, its this questlove come on jimmy no, its not you [ laughter ] no, no, sorry. Wrong photo. Its this. No, no, no sorry, its this actually, it is this jimmy what a oh oh, im being told we have another Closing Argument from trump. You know why theyre trying to talk everybody out of voting people arent buying it, cnn, you dumb bastards. Jimmy hey, this is interesting.

Its a little strange, but watch this hersheys is rolling out a robotic door to dispense king size reeses Peanut Butter cups to kids for halloween. Touchless delivery, at your service. Kids just need to say trick or treat, and the candy pops out through the retractable mail slot. Jimmy if your kids are worried about having a normal halloween this year, just tell them to relax and look at the floating door whizzing down the street [ laughter ] somewhere, a scientist was like, well, we can use the Robotic Technology to develop more precise, less invasive surgical techniques. Or we can use it to deliver chocolatecovered Peanut Butter pucks. They tried the same thing with necco wafers, but the kids just smashed the door into pieces necco dust everywhere. And finally, this isnt good at least seven people in florida have been charged with a milliondollar scheme. Listen to this florida officials claim flying squirrels were trapped in the state, driven to chicago, and then shipped to south korea. They say poachers set as many as 10,000 squirrel traps and captured up to 3,600 flying squirrels over a threeyear period jimmy going forward, these are the scandals i want to read about in 2021.

Its great, its funny, but also teaches valuable lessons. It is perfect for the holidays i cannot wait to take this home and read it to my daughters. What was the inspiration for the book why did you want to write this i was reading books to my kids, and both my son and my daughter, i was noticing that the classic books were overwhelmingly, like, the classic stories, overwhelmingly male characters. And its so much about what were telling kids is importanty kids, and both my son and my daughter, i was noticing that the classic books were overwhelmingly, like, the classic stories, overwhelmingly male characters. And its so much about what were telling ki to Pay Attention to, and who were telling them to empathize with, and whose stories we want them to empathize with and so, i didnt want to throw away the classic stories, but i and so, i didnt want to throw away the classic stories, but i was like, what if we did it and just reflected the world more as it is, where theres all genders, and the Animal Kingdom represents the real world. So, you know, theres the wolf is female, one of the pigs is female you know, where jimmy its three little pigs, tortoise and the hare, city mouse country mouse and city mouse. I think its great not only do i love your take on it, and the illustrations, by the way, as well but also, it is a quality book its a real book and i love it, when its quality, and you go, you didnt just slap your name on it and you walk away. Attention to detail, im telling you, you know what im talking about, pal especially, i love this. The front page is one of my favorite parts this book belongs to i remember that, all of my books as a kid i also wanted a table of contents, that was really important to me. Because my daughter really loves to point to which story she wants, when theres many stories in a book. So i wanted it to have an illustration so kids that cant read yet can choose which story they want first. Jimmy i just love the illustrations, too yes janna mattia, who did the illustrations is so amazing, and she has all of these little hidden jokes, too. In the tortoise and the hare, theres a hare taking a tortoise out of a hat like a a magician, and theres a porcupine making balloon animals. Theres all these little jokes jimmy isnt it amazing its so fun and are your kids, like, do you practice on your kids, do you guys like this rhyme . Does this sound good totally i fully read it to them as i was in process and saw what made them laugh, or what was interesting to them, or what made them not Pay Attention and zone out so, it was great ha jimmy yep.

Jimmy and it made people happy. Yes jimmy and you see the things that we miss, and you go, awe, i miss that. Yes. Sadly, you know, broadway announced that it will be shut down through june.

One of your early broadway roles was teen angel in grease, and you posted a a photo of your first time on the tonight show. Here it is [ laughter ] what do you remember about this i remember that we were on tour with the prebroadway production of grease, that starred Rosie Odonnell and Megan Mullally jimmy Megan Mullally prewill grace. Jimmy i did not know that. And we were in costa mesa, and the tonight show was going to have us, and they came to the show, and they saw the whole show and they chose my number and, so i ended up being able to go on and then it was a surprise, because after the number, jay leno paneled me, which was a big deal because, like, i wasnt supposed to go and talk. I was just supposed to be a musical guest and sing jimmy and you scored yes jimmy theres this trend online right now, i just recently did, where people share photos and they go how it started, and how its going. And people are doing it. Youve been having fun with it you made one just for us tonight. Yes. Lets take a look at this now, that is how it started, which i have questions about [ laughter ] i see how its going lets start with how its going. Where was that was that kinky boots. That was kinky boots, 2013, the tony awards. Jimmy oh, come on. So that was the original dream come true. The dream that i started having when you see me on the left over there jimmy now, what was happening when youre on the left over there . How old are you . Okay, so, i am 13yearsold i was at Reizenstein Middle School i had discovered musical theater in the sixth grade i was in the eighth grade. And i figured, here ive spent the last two years playing second banana. So, im going to be the star of the show the show was announced, its oliver. I went to the library. I took out the cast album. I learned where is love. I came, i sang, i did my audition the cast list comes up, and it says oliver twist, eric pearson well, i storm into the directors office. Mr. Ken lutz, who was the instrumental teacher, who i am still friends with to this day and i was like, how dare you . You know, like, i went off on him. And he said, billy, billy, you, fagin. If anybody knows oliver twist, i was cast as fagin. Fagin is really the star of the show fagin is really the lead and i was like, okay. He said, well, take the script home and read it. Of course at 13, youre just counting your lines. And fagin, i was just counting my lines he doesnt even enter until the last scene of the first act. I was like, how are you going to tell me im the lead of a a show named oliver and im not playing oliver jimmy oliver but that is when i discovered the power of a star entrance, darling. Because the children were waiting for me i didnt realize that. I didnt understand that jimmy oh, my gosh. This is ridiculous the children were waiting for me at 13, i arrived on the stage to applause, darling jimmy i dont think theres anything more, you get that special feeling when a kid is doing oliver, and they sing where is love. Just the voice, just so little yeah, but for me, im reviewing the situation, an octave up in a pittsburgh cockney accent. There is video, and im sure someone will post it now jimmy next time you come on, we got to play that. Billy, youve also been using your platform to encourage people to vote yes jimmy like your beautiful blazer says. And be active. Last time you were on, we talked about your version of for what its worth. Man, oh, man, did it explode it ended up being on Barack Obamas summer playlist. Did you freak out . Its astonishing. Ive been an independent artist for a long time. I had a record deal back in the late 90s and they dismissed me ive been doing independent music for a while. So for this to happen, to be able to crack through in this way for something that i just remained persistent and consistent on is really amazing and its really powerful and, you know, its made it to the list of, like, being in contention for a grammy.

You know, just keep going if theres anything i can say to folks just keep going, just keep showing up for your life and putting one foot in front of the other.

Jimmy you narrate a new docuseries called equal, which is on hbo max. Which, by the way, is killing it right now yeah. Jimmy could you set it up for everybody . I think we as a society know a lot about lgbtqplus history from 1969, which is the stonewall uprising forward what equal does is it really talks about what came before that you know, the history that came before 1969. So probably around the turn of the century, even as far back as the late 1800s, up into the stonewall uprising i learned a lot about stuff i didnt know. They called and asked me to be the voice. So thats what i did its really exciting, and really, really good. Really empowering. Jimmy you are so talented, you are fun, you are fearless. We love you here i want to show everyone a clip of equal, which premieres thursday on hbo max.
