00:00I really love the New York Knicks,
00:11but up until last year,
00:12I thought it was pronounced
00:13con-nicks with a K.
00:17That's pretty rough.
00:18I can-o.

01:24Welcome, welcome, welcome to The Tonight Show.
01:27You're here.
01:28Good show tonight.
01:29Thank you very much.
01:31Well, guys, some big news in Washington today.
01:34The House officially voted to end the government shutdown.
01:37Right now, people who were hoping to skip flying home for Thanksgiving were like,
01:45well, I guess I'll be back to drawing an extra line on my COVID test.
01:49Here we go.
01:50Meanwhile, everyone's talking about this.
01:52Earlier this morning, Congress released new emails that show President Trump's ties to
01:56Jeffrey Epstein.
01:57Oh.
01:59Trump heard and was like, bring back the shutdown.
02:01Bring it back.
02:02Let's bring it.
02:03Shut it down.
02:04Another couple weeks.
02:06Yep.
02:07As we speak, Trump's more stressed than an air traffic controller at Newark Airport.
02:12Speaking of Trump, tonight, he hosted Wall Street CEOs for dinner at the White House.
02:18During dinner, Trump was like, who wants to watch anything except the news?
02:21What do you think?
02:22Well, switching gears, I saw that Matthew McConaughey teamed up with an AI audio company to make
02:28a virtual replica of his voice.
02:30Ooh.
02:31Joining us now via phone to talk about it is the real Matthew McConaughey.
02:35Hey, Matthew, thank you for being here.
02:37How are you doing?
02:38It's all right, all right, all right.
02:40I know, I know.
02:41You're such a busy guy.
02:43When did you find the time to record your voice?
02:45All night, all night, all night.
02:48Interesting.
02:49But if it was at night, how could you see?
02:51Small light, small light, small light.
02:54Yeah, really? That was enough to see?
02:56So bright, so bright, so bright.
02:58Got it. Well, how was the recording booth?
03:00Airtide, air-tide, air-tide.
03:02Nice. Did you drink some Starbucks to stay awake?
03:05Tall white, tall white, tall white.
03:07That's a good choice.
03:08Well, this must have been around Halloween.
03:10What do you call that again?
03:12Fall fried, fall fried, fall fried.
03:14Yeah, it's very unusual.
03:15But, hey, quick cue.
03:17Do you think one of the Beatles would ever replicate their voice?
03:20Paul might, Paul might, Paul might.
03:22Well, I heard Kevin Hart was thinking about it.
03:24How would you describe him?
03:26Doll's hot, doll's hot, doll's hot.
03:28Hey, come on.
03:29What do you think is going to happen next time he sees you?
03:32Bar fried, bar fried, bar fried.
03:34All right, last question.
03:35What's your favorite song of life of a showgirl?
03:38Let me guess.
03:39It's Opalite, Opalite, Opalite.
03:41Nah, I like the fate of Ophelia.
03:43Oh, there you go.
03:44Matthew McConaughey, everyone.
03:45Look at that.
03:46Thanks for being here.
03:47Thanks for being on the show.
03:52Well, speaking of A.I., for the first time ever,
03:55an A.I.-generated country song has reached number one
03:58on the Billboard charts.
04:00Here to discuss is our resident country duo,
04:02Guthrie and Maria.
04:03Welcome to the show, guys.
04:07Now, you two are professional country musicians.
04:12How do you feel about an A.I. country song being so popular?
04:15We don't like it, not one bit.
04:17Yeah, we poured our heart and souls into this industry.
04:20And we're not going to let no computer replace us.
04:23We actually wrote a song about it.
04:25Well, we'd love to hear it.
04:27Hit it!
04:28Two, three, four.
04:29My truck, my jeans, some silly and some mean.
04:33That's what it takes to be country.
04:37An ice-cold beer on my John Deere.
04:41How's that?
04:42If you want, I can generate more hit country lyrics for you.
04:45Wait, wait. I'm sorry.
04:46Wait, wait. I'm sorry.
04:47What was that?
04:48What was that last line?
04:50Oh, the ice-cold beer John Deere?
04:52Pretty good rhyme, huh?
04:53No, no.
04:54I mean the one about generating country lyrics.
04:56That sounds like something ChatGPT would say.
04:59We don't use ChatGPT.
05:01We did this all on our own.
05:03You'll see in the next verse.
05:05Okay, fine. Sorry. Take it away.
05:07Two, three, four.
05:09We don't need no ChatGPT to write our country songs.
05:16Would you like this formatted as a downloadable PDF or a word...
05:20Alright, stop, stop, stop, stop, stop, stop.
05:22Guys, guys.
05:24You are clearly using ChatGPT to help write this.
05:30Fine, you caught us.
05:32We're doomed.
05:34We're never gonna work again.
05:36Guys, guys, it's okay. I don't judge you.
05:38We don't judge you, right, guys? We don't... No.
05:40Well, we hope you'll accept our apology.
05:43We're genuinely sorry for the hurt we caused.
05:46That's okay, guys. Really.
05:48And we'll do better next time.
05:50Would you like the apology to sound romantic, professional...
05:54Alright, alright, that's enough.
05:55Guthrie and Marie, everybody. Take them off the feed.
05:58No! Wave at me.
06:04Well, guys, listen to this.
06:05A self-driving taxi company, Waymo, said that their cars will start
06:09taking customers on the freeway for the first time.
06:13Whoa.
06:14They made the announcement after Waymo accidentally took
06:16a customer on the freeway for the first time.
06:20Yeah, we're doing that now.
06:23And finally, guys, it is Wednesday.
06:25It is time for We Post. Here we go.
06:34Welcome to We Post.
06:36This is where we, as a group, decide something that we should
06:39post on socials.
06:40I'm gonna show you five different posts,
06:42and we're all gonna vote on whether you like each one or not.
06:45You all have voting clickers at your seats.
06:47There you go. I can see. There you go.
06:49Everyone's got one.
06:50You can vote for all of these, by the way.
06:51Or you can vote for none of them. It's up to you.
06:53Do whatever you want. I just want you to have fun.
06:55And we're gonna see the results live.
06:57Higgins, Roots, you guys have clickers, too?
06:59Okay?
07:00I'm gonna post whichever one gets the most likes from all of us,
07:02because it's not a Me Post. No.
07:04It's a We Post.
07:08You guys ready?
07:09The first post is whoever named the walkie-talkie
07:14totally ended that meeting.
07:18It's called the walkie-talkie.
07:21Nailed it.
07:24Nailed it.
07:27They ended the meeting.
07:28Ended the meeting.
07:29I know what it's called.
07:30You walk with it.
07:31You talk with it.
07:32Walkie-talkie.
07:33Let's go.
07:37It's the exit.
07:38It's like it's the C layer.
07:41I got it.
07:42Before anyone else has any...
07:43I hate to interrupt, Robin, but...
07:45A walkie-talkie.
07:52Everyone has good points and all that stuff.
07:54We'll get to that.
07:55But I just want to say, before anything happens,
07:57a walkie-talkie.
08:02All right.
08:03That being said, I feel like the audience did not vote for this.
08:05Not like this.
08:06No, no.
08:07A lot of them were talking about walkies.
08:09No, no.
08:10They were ready to walk out of the building.
08:12Let's see the results here.
08:14Let's see.
08:15I think...
08:16Yeah.
08:17Wow.
08:18Wow.
08:19He really did not like...
08:21No, the jokes don't necessarily get better.
08:24So you better enjoy these now.
08:28Wow.
08:29Whew.
08:33All right.
08:34Let's try this next one.
08:35Next one is...
08:36Pronouncing Target like it's French was 6'7 for moms in the 90s.
08:40Oh.
08:41Oh, Target.
08:43Yeah, I went to Target.
08:45I went to Target.
08:48I went to Target.
08:49For moms in the 90s, that was 6'7.
08:51Yeah.
08:52I'm saying yes.
08:53All right.
08:54This one I feel pretty good on.
08:55Yeah.
08:56I'm not saying it's 100%, but...
08:57No, but it's better than walkie-talkie.
09:00I like walkie-talkie.
09:01One guy's still deciding what...
09:03It can't be that hard of a decision.
09:05You like it?
09:07You're not sure.
09:08Okay.
09:09Let's see the results.
09:11Whoa!
09:12All right, not bad.
09:13Okay, good.
09:14Ow!
09:15That's good. I like that.
09:16Yeah.
09:17At least you know the button, the other button works.
09:18Yeah.
09:19Really.
09:20All right, let's try this next one.
09:21It says...
09:22I bet the air inside the basketball is like,
09:24what the hell is going on out there?
09:29I'm flying? I'm bouncing?
09:33I'm flying.
09:34I'm flying.
09:36I'm flying.
09:37All right, let's...
09:41What is going on?
09:43The world's gonna end!
09:44What's happening, dude?
09:48All right.
09:49Let's see the results on this one.
09:51Oh!
09:52Not bad.
09:53Not bad.
09:54Close second place.
09:55Second.
09:56Yeah.
09:57It's number two.
09:58This one's pretty good.
09:59You like this next one?
10:00I don't know. How many we have left?
10:01Two more left?
10:02All right.
10:03I think this one's gonna take it.
10:04I feel good about this.
10:05Word.
10:08Do you?
10:09Word.
10:10Let's see.
10:11All right, this next one is...
10:13I want to take a two-day-old baby to a rodeo
10:16so they can be like,
10:17it is my first rodeo and I was born yesterday.
10:25Yo, everyone vote for that.
10:27Right? It's got it.
10:28That one's got it.
10:29That has to win, right?
10:30God.
10:31That's a pretty good one right there.
10:33Imagine if that happens.
10:34Get her a T-shirt.
10:35Get her a T-shirt.
10:36These are reals. I know.
10:37All right.
10:38Everyone vote in.
10:39Let's see the results on this one.
10:41Oh, yeah!
10:42Not bad!
10:45I love that one, too.
10:46All right, we'll do the last one just for fun.
10:48For fun.
10:49But if everyone votes for it,
10:50we'll have to do the last one.
10:51But I think that one's the winner.
10:52Yeah, yeah.
10:53All right, here we go.
10:54Last one is...
10:55Turkeys are probably looking around right now like,
10:57it's calm.
10:58Too calm.
11:02But don't all vote for it,
11:03because then you'll never see the rodeo one ever again.
11:09All right, here we go.
11:11Let's see the results.
11:13There we go!
11:14Thank you very much.
11:15It looks like the winner is number four.
11:18This one right here.
11:21I'm gonna post this during the break.
11:23If you happen to see it online,
11:24give that WePost a repost.
11:26We have a great show tonight.
11:28His new documentary, Stiller and Mira, Nothing is Lost,
11:32is streaming now on Apple TV.
11:34The very funny, the one and only, the very talented,
11:37Ben Stiller is here tonight.
11:42He's got his own soft drink, too. Stiller's.
11:44Good.
11:45Also, one of my favorites, country music superstar,
11:48Brad Paisley is joining us!
11:50And we got great stand-up from Peter Ravello!
11:56Stick around.
11:57We're telling Freezer secrets with Ben Stiller after the break.
12:01Come on back.
12:02You're now in tune to the sounds of the O to the O to the T.
12:06You know how my character's last name in Meet the Parents is Focker?
12:10Yeah, of course.
12:11Then there's Meet the Fockers and Little Fockers,
12:14and then next year there's gonna be Focker-in-law.
12:17Yeah, yeah. That's the classics.
12:19Yeah, yeah.
12:20I just got the joke.
12:32Welcome back to the show.
12:34Ben Stiller is our guest tonight!
12:40He's got a new soda called Stiller's Soda.
12:44And it's actually really good.
12:46In fact, I wouldn't mind grabbing one right now
12:48out of the Tonight Show freezer.
12:49I'll be right back.
12:51Sorry. Let's do this.
12:53I should have done it earlier.
12:55Freezer secrets.
13:12Oh, no!
13:13No, no, no, not again! I'm stuck!
13:15Someone help! I'm stuck in the freezer!
13:18It's no use, Jimmy.
13:26Ben Stiller? What are you doing in here?
13:29I also came in here to get a Stiller's Soda and got locked in,
13:33so now we're both stuck.
13:35I knew that buying a soundproof freezer was a mistake.
13:39We're doomed.
13:41But since this is the end, I have a few secrets I need to get off my chest.
13:47Hmm. So do I, Jimmy. So do I.
13:50I'll go first.
13:51I really love the New York Knicks, but up until last year,
13:56I thought it was pronounced Cunnicks with a K.
14:01That's pretty rough.
14:02I can-oh.
14:07You know how people ask, are you a ketchup guy or a mustard guy?
14:12Well, I'm neither.
14:13I'm the liquid that comes out of the bottle before the ketchup.
14:16You know how my character's last name in Meet the Parents is Focker?
14:26Yeah, of course.
14:27Then there's Meet the Fockers and Little Fockers,
14:30and then next year there's going to be Focker-in-law.
14:33Yeah, yeah, yeah. That's classics.
14:35Yeah, yeah. Great.
14:36I just got the joke.
14:41Like yesterday.
14:42You know how some people, cilantro tastes like soap to them?
14:50Hmm.
14:51Well, to me, soap tastes like cilantro.
14:53And I shave a little bit onto my baked potatoes.
14:57It's the only way I can down them.
15:00It drives me nuts that everybody thinks Darius Rucker is Hootie.
15:05He's just the lead singer of the band Hootie and the Blowfish.
15:08He's not Hootie.
15:10The rest of the band is not the Blowfish.
15:13Why is it so hard for people to understand?
15:20I never learned the alphabet, so...
15:23I know all the letters.
15:25I just have no idea what order they're supposed to be in.
15:31I can never get the claps right in the Friends theme song.
15:35Listen.
15:37No one told you that was gonna be this way.
15:44See?
15:49You know how some people do the robot when they dance?
15:53Well, I do a really modern robot that's so advanced,
15:56it dances exactly like a human.
15:59So you can't even tell that I'm doing the robot.
16:01The rumors are true.
16:03I had penis reduction surgery.
16:08I hadn't heard that.
16:18Well, would you mind starting that rumor?
16:23Hey, guys.
16:24What are you doing here?
16:25Higgins, you saved us!
16:26What are you doing here?
16:27Oh, just getting a Stiller's Soda.
16:28That's right.
16:29Yeah, they're delicious and only 30 calories.
16:30Oh, my gosh.
16:31That's what I came in here for.
16:32Thanks, you guys.
16:33Hey, I got the Stiller's Soda.
16:34Oh!
16:35Higgins!
16:36Higgins!
16:37Oh, wait!
16:38Higgins!
16:39Oh, wait!
16:40Higgins!
16:41Oh, wait!
16:42Higgins!
16:43Oh, wait!
16:44Higgins!
16:45This has been Freezer Secrets.
16:48Well, my brother-in-law hit an eight-point buck.
16:52Threw it in the back of his truck.
16:56And told the children it was Rudolph.
17:11Our first guest is a very talented actor, writer,
17:16director, and producer.
17:18His fantastic new documentary about his parents,
17:21the comedy legends Stiller and Mira.
17:23It's called Stiller and Mira, Nothing is Lost,
17:25which is streaming now on Apple TV.
17:27It is fantastic.
17:28Please welcome Ben Stiller!
17:46Take it in!
17:48They love you!
17:49Come on!
17:50We love you!
17:51Welcome!
17:56I kind of wanted to see you do a little of your non-robot robot
17:59dance.
18:00What would that be like?
18:01I don't know.
18:02It's kind of like that.
18:03Yeah.
18:04Like that.
18:05Kind of like that.
18:06Oh, it is almost like a robot, but kind of not a robot.
18:09I always love seeing you.
18:11Thank you for doing that bit with us.
18:12Yeah, man.
18:13First, I want to say, the last time I saw you,
18:15we were, if you remember this, we were at a Knicks game.
18:18Yes.
18:19And we were across from each other.
18:20Recently.
18:21Recently, yeah.
18:22Last week, yeah.
18:23Yes.
18:24You had, well, we both had courtside seats.
18:26Amazing seats.
18:27Which is great.
18:28I was there with Christine.
18:29And you were, I was like in the area that they usually put us.
18:32You were across, right next to the Knicks bench.
18:35These are like the prime seats where you're literally next to the Knicks
18:39assistant coaches.
18:40I did not like these seats at all.
18:41Because it puts a lot of pressure on you.
18:43Too nice.
18:44There were too, yeah.
18:45It felt like.
18:46Like you're part of the.
18:47I was stressed.
18:48And you're like a basketball maniac, right?
18:50You love basketball.
18:51Right?
18:52You live and breathe basketball.
18:53Yeah, yeah, yeah.
18:55I live and breathe.
18:56I'm so nervous.
18:58Yeah.
18:59No, I didn't belong there at all.
19:00No, but you're there as if, and you're also,
19:03you were dressed in this sort of like dark sweats kind of.
19:06You looked like the assistant coaches there.
19:11You basically looked like you were like the new assistant coach.
19:14You kept sending me.
19:15You kept sending me text messages.
19:16You're taking pictures of me.
19:17Yeah.
19:18You're like a guy that came from the G League.
19:19And laughing at me.
19:20And you're sending me pictures.
19:21Here's me.
19:22Yeah.
19:23So I started sending pictures.
19:24So there.
19:25There's Mike Brown, the new head coach.
19:27That's right.
19:28And there's an assistant.
19:29And there's.
19:30There you are.
19:31That's me.
19:32Yeah.
19:33And I swear to God.
19:34They would like the players would come off and they'd high five
19:37all the assistants and you put your hand out.
19:38They'd high five you.
19:39I think they thought you were an assistant coach.
19:41I did not like it.
19:42It was so stressful.
19:43You have the other picture though.
19:44Because then there was another shot I had where it really
19:47looked like you were giving secrets to the other team.
19:51You were telling the Mike Brown plays to the other team.
19:55On a secret thing.
19:56No.
19:57I was coughing.
19:58I was coughing.
19:59I feel like that's like a Pulitzer winning photograph I got there.
20:02Yeah.
20:03Let's talk about Steelers.
20:04Okay.
20:05This is a real thing.
20:06We launched this soda like a month ago.
20:08Yeah.
20:09Congratulations.
20:10Yeah.
20:11Thanks.
20:12It's actually.
20:13I'm.
20:14I love this.
20:15It's crazy.
20:16I've never done anything like this before.
20:18I'm not like really entrepreneurial or anything.
20:20Yeah.
20:21But the idea of doing a soda, you know, cause you know,
20:23there's these celebrity brands and stuff, you know,
20:25people and a lot of like, like liquors and things like that.
20:27Tequilas.
20:28Lifestyle.
20:29Yeah.
20:30And I don't drink and I, but I do love soda.
20:31I love Shirley temples.
20:33I grew up, you know, drinking Shirley temples.
20:35That's like the first cocktail as a kid.
20:37Yeah.
20:38Yeah.
20:39So I, that was the first.
20:40Yeah, it is.
20:41It makes you feel like a grownup.
20:42Yeah.
20:43When we started working on the Shirley temple,
20:44I actually went to Italy for six weeks and embedded myself
20:47in the hills of Italy with the maraschino cherry farmers.
20:50You did not.
20:51I did.
20:52I did.
20:53I did.
20:54One of those method, cherry, maraschino cherry farmers.
20:57I called myself Giuseppe.
20:58Oh, my goodness.
20:59Yeah.
21:00They called me Piccolo Giuseppe.
21:02Oh, my God.
21:03Little Giuseppe.
21:04Little Giuseppe.
21:05Oh, my God.
21:06And we found the right maraschino cherry.
21:08And then.
21:09Wow.
21:10And then I found out you can't put a maraschino cherry
21:12in a can.
21:13All right.
21:14Well, you learn.
21:15Disgusting and gross.
21:16You learn the hard way.
21:17Yeah, yeah.
21:18You put the research in.
21:19By the way, it is delicious.
21:20Dude, congrats on this.
21:21I love it.
21:22I love a new idea.
21:23Yeah.
21:24This is so cool.
21:26I want to talk about the documentary about your parents.
21:29Stiller and Mira, nothing is lost.
21:31Yeah.
21:32Obviously, yeah.
21:33You can clap for Stiller and Mira.
21:36Jerry Stiller and Mira, legends in the comedy business.
21:40I love them.
21:41I got to meet them.
21:42We got to do a bit on the show.
21:43We came to the show.
21:44I'll never forget it.
21:45And we watched this documentary.
21:46I was freaked out.
21:47I loved it so much.
21:48Because not only do you get to see their whole career,
21:52you know, and how much work goes into making a career,
21:56especially being a husband and wife.
21:57But if I can explain this the right way,
22:01to have this documentary come out is so rare.
22:03Because you have to have a famous mom and dad that are in comedy.
22:08You have to be a child of that mom and dad.
22:10You have to want to be in comedy.
22:12You have to start a career in comedy, do well.
22:15You have to learn how to direct, become a director.
22:18Then you have to become a dad.
22:20Then you have to make the same mistakes your parents made.
22:22Then you have to make this documentary.
22:24It's a very rare thing that you did.
22:27And then you have to start a soda company.
22:29That's in the sequel.
22:31No, no, it's honestly, you know, it's...
22:34I love documentaries.
22:35I think they're the most emotional, the movies that hate me the hardest.
22:38Me too.
22:39Because they're real.
22:40And this was, like, after my dad passed away five years ago.
22:44It was during COVID.
22:45And we couldn't do a memorial for him at that time.
22:48And there was all this footage, this videotape and Super 8 footage
22:53and audio recordings that I discovered that my dad had saved all this stuff.
22:57He recorded so many things.
22:58Yeah.
22:59My sister and I were going through the apartment because they left the apartment to my sister.
23:02And we knew she was going to sell it.
23:04And we had to clean it out.
23:06And I think a lot of people have gone through that experience.
23:08And I discovered there was just all of these, you know, these recordings that I didn't know existed of my dad and my mom having these conversations when they would write together.
23:17They'd write their sketches for the Ed Sullivan Show.
23:19They were on, like, 36 times.
23:2136 times?
23:22Yeah, so they would improvise together and record it.
23:24And so there was just all of this material and all these appearances on talk shows in the 70s and 80s.
23:30And I just wanted to try to put something together.
23:32And then it evolved into really a story about our whole family.
23:37Because, you know, since I was the one making the movie, the perspective of being a child of parents who are actors and then also having grown kids now who are also actors and being in a relationship, being in a marriage for 25 years.
23:51Your wife is fantastic.
23:52Your kids are amazing talking to you straight up and being honest and going, Dad, we lived through it as well.
23:59Yes, yeah. I asked them questions about what it was like and I got some interesting answers I wasn't expecting.
24:05You could tell. You could tell. But it's like you're really just breathing going like, okay.
24:09And you're like, Dad, last week I was at a restaurant I was trying to talk to you and you had to take 10 pictures with fans.
24:13Right.
24:14And you're like, okay.
24:15And that's what I went through with my dad.
24:17You know, there's like the experiences of, like, you know, as a parent, what you try to do differently with your kids, too.
24:23And, you know, the mistakes you try not to make and the other mistakes that you make.
24:26You know, all of that is part of the movie. And also, I think it's about creativity, too.
24:32And, you know, how you can have a relationship with someone and be creative with them and how you figure that out.
24:37My parents were married for over 60 years and they stayed together.
24:40Yeah. And I think that really, yeah.
24:42They were hilarious.
24:43They wanted to be together. You know, not all marriages should stay together.
24:46You know, but they really wanted to be together.
24:50And I think that, you know, that really influenced me in my life.
24:54And so I wanted to kind of, you know, film me about that.
24:56And just hearing them talk and nothing is lost and saying all that on the tapes.
25:00And they have you and your sister. So cute, Amy. So, this is...
25:05You guys went on the Mike Douglas Show as kids.
25:07That's right. Yeah.
25:08And played probably one of the worst renditions of violin I've ever heard in my life.
25:14But it's so gosh darn cute.
25:16Well, yeah. Yeah. My parents were on the Mike Douglas Show, which was a daytime talk show.
25:20And they were the co-hosts for the week. And they brought us out and we played Chopsticks.
25:24And we were awful.
25:26But it was perfectly awful.
25:28It was perfectly awful. And, you know...
25:29Here's them after you played just hugging you and kissing you and going,
25:32Oh, you're great. You did such a great job. Yeah.
25:34Yes. And then therapy for the rest of our lives.
25:36Yeah, of course.
25:38I just want to mention also after you finished the documentary, which, by the way,
25:41the last couple scenes absolutely killed me. But you'll have to watch to see it.
25:46It's great. But you've donated all of your parents' comedy archives
25:50to the National Comedy Center in Jamestown, New York.
25:53Yes. Yeah.
25:54Which is an amazing place. It's an amazing place.
25:57It's a lot of stuff.
25:59It's Lucille Ball's hometown, Jamestown, New York.
26:01Yes. Yeah. And they're gonna...
26:03Yeah, they're gonna... They're archiving that stuff.
26:05And they're gonna have an exhibit. And it's just great.
26:08Because it's about the comedy process, how they would figure out how to,
26:11you know, write these sketches that were very autobiographical, too.
26:14They would have been so proud of you for making this, dude.
26:16Thanks, man. You're the best.
26:17I want to show everyone a clip from Stiller and Mira.
26:20Nothing is lost. Take a look.
26:21We have a sketch which we call hate.
26:23The heat of your hot hate.
26:24You know, I say to Anne, I hate you.
26:26And she says, you hate me, I hate you.
26:28And one day, Amy, who's six, came into the room,
26:30and she heard us saying this to each other.
26:32And we looked at her for a moment, and we didn't know what to say.
26:35So we said, uh, Amy, mommy, daddy, rehearse.
26:38Right.
26:39Mommy, daddy, rehearse.
26:40And Amy looked at us, and she started to smile.
26:43Well, about two weeks later, we were fighting.
26:45And Amy walked in, and she said...
26:48Mommy, daddy, rehearse? No. Mommy, daddy, fight.
26:50Get out of here.
26:51It gets to be a little complicated sometimes.
26:53I hated you before I met you.
26:55I hated you before you were born.
26:57To me, that's, like, one of the things that I think about,
27:00is just how that became sort of like,
27:03yeah, that's the laugh, that's the funny joke.
27:05But what is the reality of that story, though?
27:08We don't know, Ben. That's why we're so messed up.
27:12That's why we're doing this documentary?
27:14That's why we're gonna figure it out.
27:16Oh, fantastic.
27:18Great doc. Congratulations.
27:20Thanks, man.
27:21Ben Stiller, everybody.
27:22Stiller and Mira Nothing Is Lost
27:24is streaming now on Apple TV.
27:27Brad Paisley joins us after the break.
27:29Stick around.
27:46Our next guest is a Grammy-winning singer-songwriter.
28:01His new Christmas album, Snowglobetown,
28:03is available everywhere right now.
28:05Please welcome Brad Paisley!
28:08Wow.
28:19Brad!
28:22How are ya?
28:23It is so great to see you.
28:24Congrats on the album.
28:25It is number one on the iTunes holiday charts right now.
28:28Congratulations.
28:29Not too shabby.
28:31I have to get into this and talk to you about this
28:34because you recently sang the national anthem
28:37of Game 3 of the World Series, all right,
28:40which lasted a record-tying 18 innings.
28:43Yeah. Okay? I have a photo of you here, okay?
28:46There's you doing the national anthem.
28:48But here's where it gets really crazy.
28:51You performed the national anthem at the World Series in 2018.
28:55Right. Okay? And that game also went 18 innings.
28:58Yeah.
29:00In fact, all four times that you've performed
29:02the national anthem at the World Series,
29:04the game has gone into extra innings.
29:06Yeah.
29:07Are you freaking out?
29:08When we were... So, I did an interview that day,
29:11and they said, this one going into extra?
29:13I said, no, this is the first one that'll be nine.
29:16And that night, we're at inning 17, and I said,
29:19oh, you've got to be kidding me.
29:21Because I thought I'd never...
29:23I thought my one thing in the record books in baseball...
29:25Yeah. ...was that I sang at the longest game
29:28in the history of the World Series.
29:30No. No.
29:31Now I've done all of them.
29:32I don't know. I mean, we won.
29:35My team won.
29:36You're going to have to get a nickname for this.
29:38Oh, I have it. It's Mr. Moore Baseball.
29:40There you go, yeah. You're Mr. Moore Baseball.
29:43If you want more baseball, you go to Brad Paisley.
29:46Any sport. I can...
29:47Any sport. You can do basketball.
29:48If you want a long Super Bowl, I'll do it.
29:49Yeah. That's it. Yeah.
29:52Happy birthday, by the way. Belated birthday.
29:54Yeah, you're late. You're way late.
29:55I'm a little late.
29:56That's like a week ago.
29:57Just a week ago. I sent you something in the mail.
29:59Yeah, I'll look for it.
30:00Yeah, thanks.
30:02But this is kind of...
30:03You brought us a photo of something that you wanted
30:05for your birthday.
30:06Yeah.
30:07And I just thought it would be interesting to show.
30:08This is...
30:09That was my gift for my birthday.
30:10It was a dragon for the yard.
30:12I saw it at Home Depot on sale for $200,
30:16and I just wrote my wife and said,
30:18Birthday. And there it is.
30:20You wanted it.
30:21Why did you want a 20-foot dragon?
30:23Well, what?
30:26Who wouldn't want a 20-foot dragon?
30:29And we're going to put, like, a Santa hat on at Christmas.
30:31It's going to stay up all year.
30:32Valentine's Day.
30:34Your wife is a good wife, man.
30:35She's great.
30:36She's letting you keep it up.
30:37And it moves and stuff?
30:38Yeah. It, like, roars, and it does the smaug thing
30:41with the belly, and it's amazing.
30:43Nothing says Christmas like that.
30:46Like a dragon.
30:47That's true. Like a fire-breathing dragon, yeah.
30:50Congrats on the album.
30:51I told you backstage, Snowglobe Town.
30:54I love the cover, by the way.
30:56It's so...
30:56My son drew that.
30:58I say drew that.
30:59I started it, and he went, no.
31:02And then redrew that, and I think it's perfect.
31:05It just looks like it just has that holiday animation.
31:07Yeah, it makes you... It's cozy.
31:09It tells me everything I want for the holidays.
31:12It's a mix of originals and classics.
31:15Yeah.
31:16What did you want to get across from making this?
31:19Well, I wanted it to feel like you stepped in a Hallmark movie.
31:21I wanted you to feel like that you're in one of those little towns
31:24that's just, like, everything's decorated,
31:26and everything feels like Christmas.
31:28I love this time of year more than anything.
31:29Yeah, me too.
31:30So, we really set out to sort of go through the stages
31:34of what Christmas is, you know, the anticipation,
31:37then the warmth of family arriving,
31:40all the way through to, you know, I'm ready for them to go.
31:44Um...
31:47In fact, there's a song. I have my guitar.
31:50I should play you the, uh...
31:54I would love that.
31:56So...
31:58So, this is that moment.
32:00This is that thing where it's like I'm asking my wife
32:02when her relatives are going back to the Carolinas.
32:06What's this song called?
32:07Lit.
32:10Well, the family drove in for the holidays
32:15three times on five different states
32:20and this Christmas is going to be...
32:25a nightmare.
32:28Well, my brother-in-law hit an eight-point buck,
32:33threw it in the back of his truck,
32:37and told the children it was Rudolph.
32:44They're all crying, he's just laughing.
32:47My wife ran out and said, what just happened?
32:51I just went inside to look for Smirnoff.
32:58We put up a tree, string up the lights,
33:03So much for a silent night.
33:06Never mind the egg don't pass me that fifth.
33:13Between now and New Year's Eve,
33:17when these people finally leave,
33:21me and that Christmas tree,
33:25we're both gonna be lit.
33:31That's how you do it.
33:33That is how you do it right there.
33:36Come on.
33:37Brad Paisley, everybody.
33:39Brad's new Christmas album,
33:42Snowglobetown, is everywhere right now.
33:45We'll be right back with stand-up from Peeper, Rebello.
33:48Stick around, everybody.
33:50Take you to the hotel.
34:06Our next guest recently won a comedy prize in Shreveport, Louisiana, and he can be seen this weekend at the Comedy Cellar here in New York making his Tonight Show debut.
34:13and he can be seen this weekend at the Comedy Cellar
34:16here in New York, making his Tonight Show debut.
34:19Please welcome the very funny Peter Ravello.
34:32Thank you, guys.
34:33I just got back in from Vegas, and, uh, oh...
34:38You got to be a little dumb to like Las Vegas.
34:42You got to be a little stupid.
34:43You got to be a real colors and sounds sort of person.
34:47You see a bright light, and you're like,
34:49Yo! It's daytime light in the nighttime.
34:54You see a miniature Eiffel Tower, and you're like,
34:56Am I in Paris?
34:58You got to be operating at a pretty low level.
35:02And the whole thing is gambling. You got to gamble.
35:04I don't usually gamble.
35:06And I gambled, and I lost all of my money.
35:10And I was like, When does the addiction part kick in on this?
35:15I'm an alcoholic. It's so much better.
35:17It's just...
35:19I wouldn't drink if there was a 50-50 chance.
35:22Every time I ordered a beer,
35:23I'd be handed an empty beer bottle.
35:28And the bartender was like, Better luck next time.
35:31Sorry. It's not your night.
35:33And casinos are so depressing.
35:39Everyone there has a cough. It's gross.
35:42And they're not just sick in one way.
35:44They're sick in every way.
35:46There's polio. There's rickets.
35:50There's eye patches, peg legs.
35:53People smoking out of their neck, and it's...
35:57It's like, Folks, what are we doing at the casino?
36:00God, I already told you. You're not lucky.
36:10You have a club foot and Crohn's disease.
36:12Stop playing blackjack.
36:17That's a lot of old women playing slot machines.
36:19And my grandmother, she was 103 when she died.
36:22No, no, that's a tree age.
36:24That's not a human age.
36:28That's the age of a haunted sailboat.
36:32And she wasn't happy.
36:33She wasn't waking up like,
36:34Oh, another gift from God. No.
36:37She'd wake up and be like, Not again.
36:41She wanted to die very badly.
36:44I feel like we don't like old people, though.
36:46You know, we like their stuff.
36:47We like the things they leave behind.
36:50Museums, secondhand stores, old houses.
36:53We love all that stuff.
36:54Ever have a friend buy an old house?
36:55They're like, Oh, my God, if these walls could talk, huh?
36:59The stories they would tell.
37:01Meanwhile, an actual old person tries to tell you a story.
37:08And you feel rage you've never felt before.
37:13Hurry up, Gladys. Hurry up.
37:18I'm going to therapy.
37:20And guys from Blue Collar New York guys,
37:23they don't really do therapy.
37:25This is what they do.
37:25They call up Sports Talk Radio.
37:28That's how they get it out.
37:30Vinny's calling about the Yankees,
37:32but it's not really about the Yankees.
37:36He calls up. He's like, Mike, what's going on?
37:38Yankees doing it this year.
37:40Also, you ever get sad?
37:43You ever stare at the moon and wonder if the Jets are staring at that same moon?
37:50My wife and I were at the bar last night, and this couple came up to us,
37:57and they were like, Hey, we like your vibe.
37:59Let's see where the night takes us.
38:01Oh, I'll tell you something, it's never the couple you want it to be.
38:06Uh, it's never a good-looking couple.
38:10It's always a renaissance fair-looking couple.
38:13Just sweating as they jangle toward you.
38:17Ooh, good morrow, squire.
38:20You're like, Oh, no.
38:22I don't want to sample your maiden. Thank you, though.
38:25A most generous offer.
38:29My wife and I were broke, but...
38:31I don't know.
38:32Things don't affect you when you're broke.
38:33Like, you ever watch a horror movie when you have no money?
38:36It's not scary.
38:39I was watching this movie about this doll that was haunting this guy's house,
38:44and I wasn't like, Oh, no, the doll.
38:46I was like, I wish I had a house.
38:48I live in a studio.
38:58Have you ever seen a haunted studio apartment movie?
39:02You have not? No.
39:04It'd be over in three minutes.
39:06The guy would be like, That doll could be anywhere.
39:10Oh, it's right there.
39:13It's in the kitchen bathroom.
39:16You can't miss him.
39:19Thank you guys so much.
39:20Peter Ravello, thank you, guys.
39:25That's how you do it, buddy. Oh, my God!
