00:00From Hollywood, it's Jimmy Kimmel Live.
00:04Tonight, Ike Barinholtz, Wagner Mora,
00:08and music from Tyler Ballgame with The Klee Tones.
00:14And now, Jimmy Kimmel Live!
00:31Hi, Guillermo. Hi, everybody. I'm Jimmy. I'm the host.
00:35Thanks for watching. Thank you for joining us here in our home
00:39in beautiful Hollywood, California.
00:42We have a lot of things to get to tonight.
00:44It seems like we have a lot of things to get to every night,
00:46and that wasn't always the case.
00:48Just for fun, I went back.
00:50I looked at one of our monologues from 2011.
00:53You remember 2011, Guillermo? It was a simpler time.
00:56These were the topics on our show 15 years ago tonight.
00:59NBC announced that Christina Aguilera
01:01would be a judge on The Voice.
01:03Lindsay Lohan's dad was rumored to be joining the gang
01:06at Celebrity Rehab.
01:08A sophomore at BYU was kicked off the basketball team
01:11for having sex with his girlfriend.
01:13And there was a new episode of Jersey Shore
01:16in which the situation hooks up with a girl
01:18who seems to have a strange odor.
01:21Now we got war pedophiles and measles. Oh, my.
01:25We also have... You know, the weather's different than it used to.
01:28It seems to be a lot colder on the East Coast
01:31and a lot warmer in the West.
01:33We've had... We've had such beautiful weather here
01:35the last two weeks, I've almost been scared to mention.
01:37I feel like the rest of the country hates us enough already,
01:40but it has been in the high 70s, it's been sunny,
01:43and it has been as cold as Melania's heart everywhere else.
01:47This is from Rhode Island, where even kids have had enough of snow.
01:53Because I'm so sick of snow on this...
01:56f***ing street.
01:59That's what you call an old soul.
02:02There were primary elections in North Carolina, Arkansas,
02:06and Texas yesterday.
02:07Democrats are hoping to win their first Senate seat
02:10in the Lone Star State since 1988.
02:12James Tallarico won the primary there last night.
02:16He beat out the author of Bleached Blonde, Bad Built Butch Buddy,
02:20Jasmine Crockett.
02:22Tallarico will now face the winner of a runoff
02:24between the incumbent, Senator John Cornyn,
02:27and his opponent, Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton,
02:31seen here dying before our eyes.
02:33Ken Paxton, this guy has quite a list of accomplishments.
02:36As Attorney General, he faced 20 different articles of impeachment.
02:40He was indicted for three felonies.
02:42He's been sued by the SEC.
02:44He's threatened with disbarment.
02:46And his wife, a woman he started a church with,
02:49divorced him for cheating with a Senate aide.
02:52Oh, you know, forget the Senate.
02:53With a resume like that, you could run for president
02:55of the United States.
02:57Of course, Paxton is tight with Trump,
03:00because only the best people.
03:02Democrats flipped the state legislature seat
03:05in Arkansas yesterday.
03:07That makes more than two dozen seats
03:09in various state legislators they have flipped
03:11since Trump took office last year.
03:13Whereas the number of seats that have gone from blue to red
03:15now totals zero nationwide.
03:18I'm beginning to see why Trump dislikes these elections so much.
03:21The president got a vigorous stroking at the White House today.
03:25He had a meeting of executives from Google, Microsoft, Amazon Meta,
03:29and OpenAI who gathered to grovel at his feet.
03:33If you're the CEO of a big tech company,
03:35your schedule seems to alternate between partying on a superyacht
03:39and Frenching the president's ass.
03:42There's no in between.
03:43So he had the tech bros sign a pledge that says
03:46they will supply their own power for their AI data centers.
03:50Wouldn't it be great if they do it by building, like,
03:53100 million windmills just to drive Trump nuts?
03:56And, of course, my favorite part of any White House event
03:59is when the president of the United States
04:02attempts to pronounce someone's name.
04:05CEO of Oracle, Clay Moose Quirk.
04:12Moose Quirk.
04:14Not even close.
04:16The name you were looking for is McGorick,
04:18which I'm not saying it's an easy name to read.
04:22Put the name up on the screen so we can all see what he saw.
04:24But how do you get Moose Quirk out of that?
04:27I'm sorry, he might have bone spurs of the brain now.
04:31You know, we goof on the president a lot,
04:33but the fact of the matter is,
04:35he knows a great deal about tech, about computers.
04:39In fact, when it comes to computers, no one knows more than him.
04:42There's no problem with computers all over the place
04:44and robots, lots of robots.
04:46You know, the reason you use computers is to make time
04:49so that it's, like, fast.
04:51We don't need computers in the sky.
04:53Dell computer.
04:54Go out and buy a Dell computer.
04:56They're great.
04:56All the tech geniuses were there.
04:58They love their computers.
05:00We have the best computer guy there is, right?
05:02We have Elon.
05:03My son, I told you, Barron, he loves that computer.
05:06They're unbelievable at computers.
05:08He started making computers on his bed.
05:10He said, they make love to their computer.
05:12I said, I don't want to hear about that.
05:13Everything's computer.
05:15That's right.
05:15Everything's computer.
05:17Wait until he hears about phone.
05:18Everything's phone.
05:20So as the meeting's wrapping up, Trump tells the group,
05:23he says, I have to go back and look at the war.
05:25And he left.
05:26Everyone who works for him is saying this is not a war.
05:29It's not a war.
05:29He keeps calling it a war.
05:31We're now on day five of whatever this is.
05:34Pete Hegseth today said, we're just getting started in Iran.
05:36They're still trying to figure out who will be Iran's next top Ayatollah.
05:41The front runner is said to be the newly exploded Ayatollah's son,
05:46Mushtaba Khomeini.
05:47Imagine your dad being the Ayatollah.
05:49I mean, talk about strict.
05:51The Ayatollah's son, this guy, is said to be an even more of a hardliner
05:55than his dad, which is what a lot of people worry about.
06:00You know, you start bombing leaders, you wind up with one who might be even worse.
06:04It's a real, I hate to say Ayatollah so, is what I'm saying.
06:08But I mentioned last night that Team Trump has been throwing out
06:11a wide and conflicting array of reasons for why they decided to launch this attack.
06:16Was it to stop Iran from enriching uranium or long-range missiles
06:21because Israel is going to do it anyway?
06:23Was it for regime change?
06:24Or maybe it's what Trump's press secretary Caroline Levitt said it was, another hunch.
06:30I think it was important with respect to the timeline.
06:32But I think the president prior to that phone call had a good feeling
06:37that the Iranian regime was going to strike the United States assets
06:41and our personnel in the region.
06:43He had a good feeling about it.
06:45What more do you need?
06:46I mean, why are good feelings for him bad for everyone else?
06:50You know, this is a tough one for the gang at Fox News
06:53and all the teeth sucklers in the right-wing echo chamber because they desperately want to praise the president
06:59and cheer him on.
07:00But they also know that starting a foreign war is the opposite of what he promised their viewers.
07:05It's a tough needle to thread and it put Pete Hegseth's former co-host,
07:09Will Cain, in a bit of a pickle last night when he interviewed retired General Jack Keene.
07:14It's not 100% clear to me, General, and that's not to suggest that I don't support 100% what
07:19is happening,
07:20nor that I 100% offer my support.
07:23I just think I want to ask a couple of critical questions,
07:25and I hope you know how much respect I have for your service.
07:28And I think it goes without saying to anybody watching how much respect I have for the men making this
07:32decision.
07:32You don't have to patronize me.
07:33Just ask the question.
07:40Just when you thought it couldn't get more embarrassing to be on Fox News.
07:45Pull your pants down, soldier.
07:46I'm going to pink up your ass.
07:48And then on the other side of the coin, you have Greg Kelly over on Newsmax,
07:52who seems to think that this war is about checking out chicks.
07:58Well, that's what Iranian women used to look like before the Ayatollah Khomeini showed up.
08:04Could look like that again. I'll see you tomorrow.
08:08Does he know he's on television?
08:11Someone really ought to tell him.
08:13Meanwhile, the chair of the House Oversight Committee, James Comer,
08:15this is the yokel in charge of the Epstein hearings.
08:18After hauling the Clintons in for questioning last week,
08:21Comer said they're going to bring in some more big names, including Bill Gates.
08:24Not to ask him about Epstein.
08:26They want to know why one of the richest men in the world still gets his hair cut at Fantastic
08:29Sam's.
08:31One of the names that is not on his list is Donald J. Trump,
08:34even though his name appears in the Trump-Epstein files hundreds of thousands of times.
08:40And even though key documents related to accusations made against Trump by a young teenage girl have disappeared,
08:47Comer feels that Trump has been asked about this enough.
08:50We're working with the president. He's turning over documents.
08:53Thus far, I'm very appreciative of the cooperation with the Trump administration.
08:58And President Trump's answered hundreds, if not thousands, of questions about Epstein.
09:04Prior to our deposition, I don't think the Clintons had answered very many questions.
09:08That's right. James Comer and his team will leave only one stone unturned.
09:14And that is Donald Trump.
09:15I can't figure out how he keeps saying this with a straight face.
09:18Like, there's no difference between asking reporters questions from reporters
09:22and answering questions under oath in Congress.
09:25They're going to interview everyone but Epstein's best friend.
09:28This is like if they arrested Siegfried and said nothing to Roy at all.
09:32The Oversight Committee did vote today to subpoena Attorney General Pam Bondi,
09:36so I guess that's something.
09:38Meanwhile, over in the House Judiciary Committee,
09:40they heard testimony from our soon-to-be former Secretary of Homeland Security,
09:45Kristi Noem.
09:45Kristi Noem got quite a grilling from members of both sides
09:48over the last couple of days about the hundreds of millions of dollars
09:51she spent for commercials she starred in,
09:54about hundreds of millions of dollars on private jets,
09:57about suspiciously appropriated funds.
09:59There was a lot.
10:00And she also repeatedly refused to apologize to the families of Alex Preddy and Renee Good,
10:05the two Americans who were killed by ICE.
10:07She suggested they were domestic terrorists.
10:10I guess she felt no remorse about that, so she didn't apologize.
10:14And then things took a turn for the risque when Noem was asked about a rumored affair
10:19with her top advisor and former Trump campaign manager, Corey Lewandowski.
10:24So, Secretary Noem, at any time during your tenure as Director of Department of Homeland Security,
10:31have you had sexual relations with Corey Lewandowski?
10:36Mr. Chairman, I am shocked that we're going down and peddling tabloid garbage in this committee today.
10:43And ma'am, one thing that I would tell you is that he is a special government employee who works
10:48for the White House.
10:49There are thousands of them in the federal government.
10:51So, reclaiming my time, Secretary, it is okay for you to be offended by the question.
10:56It is okay for you to be offended by the question.
10:59You should be wanting to answer that question.
11:01As garbage?
11:02Because it is not about your sex life.
11:04It is offensive that you have brought that up.
11:05It is about your judgment.
11:06How do you think this goes over when she goes home to her husband?
11:10How was work today, hon? Anything interesting happen?
11:13Here is Christy and her co-worker, Corey.
11:15There you go.
11:16Just wearing jeans and having fun.
11:18I am rooting for those two.
11:19I really am.
11:20We got some Diddy news today.
11:23Sean Diddy Combs is now expected to get out of prison a couple of months earlier.
11:27As if the price of oil wasn't already high enough.
11:31Apparently, the parole board doesn't have Netflix.
11:35And they have moved up his release date from June of 2028 to April 2028.
11:41And you know what that means?
11:42The Arbor Day Freak Off is back on, everybody.
11:46I was thinking about it.
11:48Maybe Diddy could be the next Ayatollah.
11:51He does look good with the beard, right?
11:54The president, by the way, might want to think about growing a beard.
11:57Because I mentioned last night, Trump has a big red yuck on his neck.
12:02Just when you thought Melania couldn't find another reason not to sleep with him.
12:06Or maybe she tried to strangle him in his sleep.
12:08I don't know.
12:09Because the reporters have been asking about it.
12:11The White House claimed, first they claimed it was a kite surfing accident.
12:15And then, no.
12:16They've so far refused to give any detailed explanation of what it is.
12:20So we decided to investigate this ourselves.
12:22And joining us now to help hopefully understand what is going on with Donald Trump's neck,
12:28please say hello to Donald Trump's badly bruised baby hand.
12:32Hello, baby hand.
12:33Hello, America.
12:34Who's got questions for me?
12:37Well, I do, baby hand.
12:38I was hoping you could tell us what is going on with that rash
12:42or whatever is happening north of you on the president's neck.
12:45That's not a rash.
12:47The neck is just a little irritated from all the medals it has been wearing.
12:51Oh.
12:52We've won so many awards.
12:54Right, right.
12:55The FIFA Peace Prize.
12:56Right.
12:57Olympic gold.
12:58Yes.
12:58A lifetime achievement award from Arby's.
13:02A lifetime achievement award from Arby's?
13:04For what?
13:05For eating 10,000 beef and cheddars.
13:07All right.
13:08You know what?
13:09That is an honor.
13:10Hey, is that a new bruise you have there on your back?
13:13Yeah, that's right.
13:14I got it when I was killing the Ayatollah.
13:18I punched him so hard.
13:19Pow, pow, chop, chop, chop.
13:22Right in the turban.
13:23He was like, sir, sir, it's such an honor to be punched by such a strong and large hand.
13:30And then I stole all of his shish kebabs.
13:32Have you heard about these things?
13:34Yes, yes.
13:34It's an old-fashioned word.
13:36Kebabs.
13:36No.
13:36Marco, kebabs for everybody.
13:38Kebabs.
13:40I love kebabs.
13:42They call me Kebab Marley.
13:44I did not know that.
13:45Any people do.
13:46Hey, since you mentioned it, do you have a plan in mind or a hope for who will take
13:50power in Iran?
13:52Oh yeah, big time we do.
13:53Right now, we're leaning very strongly towards Aladdin.
13:57Aladdin.
13:57Mm-hmm.
13:59Aladdin.
13:59Big pants, gold lamp, and a monkey BFF.
14:02I call him Abu.
14:05He flew on a carpet, Jimmy.
14:07Remember that?
14:07I do remember that.
14:08Yeah.
14:09Hey, speaking of BFFs, is there anything you could tell us about Jeffrey Epstein?
14:13Jeffy.
14:14My Jeffy.
14:15Oh.
14:16I miss him.
14:17I miss flying on his private jet.
14:20Just me, Jeffrey, and Redacted.
14:23Oh, Redacted knew how to party.
14:25That I will tell you.
14:26But can I ask you specifically about the allegations against you that have suddenly disappeared?
14:31Go ahead, but for legal reasons, I have to respond with angry silence.
14:36Okay.
14:37Well then, I will ask, what do you say to Americans who believe you should be testifying
14:42under oath?
14:42I say, would you look at the time?
14:45I have to pick the next country to go to war with.
14:48Spin it, Marco.
14:49Round and round it goes, wherever it stops.
14:52Let's find out.
14:53We will be bombing Costa Rica.
14:57Oh.
14:58Tough luck, Costa Rica.
14:59Oh, no.
15:00Adios to Costa Rica and Puerto Rico.
15:03Oh, right.
15:04Well, thank you for your time, baby, Hanley.
15:06Bad bunny no bueno.
15:07Uh-huh, yes.
15:07Chichi Rodriguez.
15:08Chichi Paul.
15:09All right.
15:10Thank you so much.
15:11That's President Trump's Badly Boo's hand.
15:16We have a fun show tonight.
15:18We've got a real live Oscar nominee here.
15:20Wagner Moura is with us.
15:22We have music with Tyler Ballgame.
15:24Cy Smith is sitting in with the Cleetones.
15:26And we'll be right back with Ike Barinholtz.
15:30Oh, oh.
15:31Don't you see I'm lying.
15:35Yeah.
15:36Yeah.
15:37Yeah.
15:37Oh, oh.
15:39Really, really.
15:40I really miss you guys.
15:43Oh, oh.
15:43Oh, oh.
15:44Oh, oh.
15:44Oh, oh.
15:44Oh, oh.
15:45Oh, oh.
15:46Oh, oh.
15:48Oh, oh.
15:57And this is his album for the first time again.
15:59Music from Tyler Ballgame.
16:01Tomorrow night, Zach Braff and Donald Faison will be here.
16:07Comedian Chris Fleming will join us, too.
16:09So please join us for that.
16:10Our first guest tonight is Critics' Choice Award winner by day
16:13and game show Wonderkin by night.
16:15He's a celebrity Jeopardy and Who Wants to Be a Millionaire champion
16:19with a new trivia-based podcast called Funny You Ask
16:22with Ike Barinholtz.
16:23It premieres March 25th.
16:25Please welcome Ike Barinholtz.
16:41How are you?
16:42Have you ever had a guest get that much applause?
16:46One time when Oprah was here.
16:49Oh.
16:50That's it, though.
16:50That's it.
16:51Hey, I mentioned the Critics' Choice Award.
16:54But on Sunday, you and your cast won the Ensemble Actor,
16:59the Actor Award.
16:59The Actor Award.
17:01The Actor Award.
17:02Which should be retitled.
17:04Should be retitled.
17:05It's an interesting name.
17:06Yeah.
17:06But now at home, I have this little nude actor.
17:09Because the statue's nude.
17:11Oh, the statue's nude.
17:12In fact, we're sitting there.
17:12And it's like a classical statue.
17:13So they made the penis small and tasteful.
17:17Uh-huh.
17:17Is it?
17:17They've been sitting there.
17:19And then Ethan Sandler, who's Katherine Hahn's husband, looked at it and goes, oh, my God.
17:25That guy's is huge.
17:29We can bleep it.
17:30That's funny.
17:31Is that the only of the major awards that has a penis?
17:36Oscar has no penis.
17:38The Nobel Peace Prize for physics.
17:39Oh, is that right?
17:40That has it?
17:40Only for physics, strangely.
17:42I don't know why.
17:42That's weird.
17:43Yeah, it's weird.
17:45And did you have fun at the show?
17:47Did you go out afterwards?
17:48Very fun.
17:48Went out.
17:49Had a little bit of an early call time, 6 a.m. call time.
17:53And so I decided I'll go.
17:55If I'm home by 12 and I only have eight beers, I'll feel terrible.
17:59And that's what happened.
18:00Uh-huh.
18:01But it was fun.
18:02Those award shows.
18:03Why would anyone schedule a 6 a.m. call time when the whole cast is at an award show the
18:10night beforehand?
18:11This seems to happen every single time.
18:14Normally, you could blame some producer, but it's Seth Rogen.
18:16It's his fault.
18:17You blame Seth Rogen, then?
18:19It's his fault.
18:19He was there, too.
18:21It was crazy.
18:21He's like, I'll be there, so you'll be there, and I don't care.
18:24Really?
18:25I was like, well, thanks, man.
18:26Is he one of those crazy people who doesn't need to sleep at all?
18:29He does.
18:29He does.
18:29He really keeps going.
18:31That job's a lot of pressure.
18:32It's a lot of stress.
18:33But he was there having a good time.
18:35We were seeing all the famous people there.
18:38A lot of famous people at that award show.
18:39Who did you see that you were excited to meet?
18:41Who did I see?
18:41I saw, okay.
18:42I saw, okay.
18:44I'm walking to my table and Benicio.
18:48Oh, that's a good one.
18:50Benicio.
18:50Yeah, exactly.
18:50Is he one of your favorites?
18:51He's kind of one of my favorites.
18:52Benicio del Toro.
18:53Never met him.
18:54Uh-huh.
18:54And he kind of, like, points at me and I walk over and shake his hand, you know.
18:57Oh, nice.
18:58And whenever I meet someone who I think is cool, my objective is talk as fast as I can and
19:03get out of there.
19:04You know what I mean?
19:05Like, don't leave any room for a bad interaction.
19:08Oh, okay.
19:09Right?
19:09So he was like, hey, man, you're really good, really funny.
19:12And I was like, hey, man, I love you.
19:13Great job.
19:14You're just an incredible actor.
19:15I love you.
19:15And I, like, ran away.
19:16Okay.
19:16Because my nightmare is I go on too long and I'm like, you know, I talk to him and I'm
19:21just standing there and I'm like, uh, it's so cold out today.
19:25You know?
19:26What happened?
19:27You know, it's L.A.
19:28And then, like, I have a bad interaction and then he, like, walks over to Leo and is
19:33like, Ike Barinholtz is a loser.
19:38He's not interesting.
19:39He just was yammering on about the weather, man.
19:42And Leo's like, what?
19:43Oh, man.
19:44That's what I thought.
19:45And all of a sudden, the whole cast of one battle after another.
19:48They all hate you.
19:48Yeah.
19:49I don't need that.
19:50It's weird.
19:50When you started talking about Benicio, you seem to, like, physically transform into him.
19:55Even your eyes got a little scary.
19:57I mean, I could be, like, his kind of Jewish cousin, maybe, situation, you know?
20:02Did you, who was the first person that you started imitating?
20:06Uh, you remember the show Taxi?
20:08Yes.
20:08Remember what the show Taxi is?
20:09Oh, okay.
20:11Uh, Jim.
20:13A.K. Christopher Lloyd.
20:14I remember I was, like, a four-year-old kid and I would just go, like,
20:18My parents were like, yeah, that's good.
20:19They must have been delighted.
20:21They loved it.
20:21They were a big taxi.
20:22Oh, four-year-old Jim Ignatowski, yeah.
20:24Big, big taxi head.
20:25That would be a great one-man show for you.
20:27You put on, Baron Holtz does Ignatowski.
20:31Something to really think about.
20:32I sit down and I drink a bottle of rum.
20:36Take it from there.
20:37It was almost Kramer before Kramer.
20:40Yeah, you're right.
20:41There was a little bit of Kramer in there.
20:42Um, your, um, late and beloved co-star Catherine O'Hara won the actor-
20:48Yes.
20:48Actor award.
20:49She and Seth spoke on her behalf.
20:53He accepted.
20:54She was, like, their greatest, right?
20:56I mean, just a-
20:56Everyone loved her.
20:57Yeah.
20:58Everyone, the CEOs, cops, uh, just everyone just thought she was-
21:03Besides being super talented, just one of the sweetest people imaginable.
21:07Uh, man, I, you know, working with her was a dream, but I got to work with her in Las
21:11Vegas.
21:12Your hometown.
21:13Uh-huh.
21:14Yes.
21:14Which was a real treat, because when you finish shooting a day in Vegas, you're in Vegas.
21:19You're in a bar.
21:20Right.
21:20So one night we were shooting and we rapped and I said, does anyone want to get a drink?
21:25And kind of everyone begged off and Catherine said, well, I would have a martini.
21:29And so I went and I had a martini and sat with Catherine and we talked.
21:32I couldn't believe it.
21:33I was so excited.
21:34I told everyone, I went out for martinis with Catherine.
21:37And the next night I said, martini?
21:39And she goes, no, no.
21:41And I was like, okay, fair enough, fair enough, that's fine.
21:44And I, but I still wanted one.
21:45So I went to the bar and I'm sitting there and like five minutes later, she walks in
21:49and I was like, oh man, she wanted a martini.
21:51She just didn't want one with me.
21:54I see.
21:55But then, but then like right on her tails, the entire hair and makeup team,
21:59she was taking them all out for drinks and dinner.
22:01So it speaks to the kind of person she was.
22:03This explains your approach to Benicio in a lot of ways.
22:06It really does.
22:07Yeah.
22:08Yeah.
22:08Leave them wanting more.
22:10Or any.
22:11You are playing Elon Musk in like a big movie, right?
22:15Yes.
22:15I mean like a big time director and the whole deal.
22:18Big time Luca Guadagnino, yes.
22:20How did that happen?
22:21How did that come to be?
22:22Well, I'm just, I'm such a fan of the guy.
22:24I just, I think he's so, and it's funny.
22:29It's not even like.
22:30What is it that you love about him?
22:32Some of the rockets that crash or the cars that have bumper stickers that say,
22:36I hate the man who made this car.
22:40I just, I, I just respect his comedy.
22:45Oh yeah.
22:46I think he's just a deeply funny person.
22:48He kills it.
22:49When he goes, yeah.
22:50When he goes there, he's funny.
22:52Some of those memes.
22:53What?
22:55Can you even post that?
22:56Uh.
22:57How do you prepare for a role like that?
22:59Ketamine?
23:00Uh, I did.
23:01I was in a K-hole for about six weeks.
23:05I just watched a lot of, a lot of him.
23:09But it was almost like, remember at Clockwork Orange?
23:12When they got Malcolm McDowell and they got the things in his eyes?
23:15Yeah.
23:15And he's doing this and then he's watching like animals being murdered.
23:18It was like that, but it was just like Elon Musk on Bill Maher.
23:22And I'm like, ah!
23:25Do you, are you, do you know if Elon is aware that you are playing him?
23:29Uh, I, I, I, I don't know.
23:32He's, he's pretty online, so I imagine he would be.
23:35Uh huh.
23:35But, uh, we're gonna find out when I'm sent to the prison penal colony.
23:40On the moon.
23:41On the moon.
23:43Ike Barinholtz is here.
23:44His show is the studio.
23:45His new podcast is called Funny You Ask with Ike Barinholtz.
23:53Flying high, you know how I feel.
23:57Sun in the sky.
23:59On the moon.
24:02We're back with Ike Barinholtz.
24:04He is the host of a new podcast called Funny You Ask with Ike Barinholtz,
24:09which is, um, I did your podcast.
24:11You were one of my first guests.
24:12We had a lot of fun.
24:12Yes.
24:13Well, I love trivia.
24:15You do.
24:15And I love talking to my funny friends.
24:17I thank you.
24:18That's very kind of you.
24:18You're a celebrity Jeopardy champion, as I mentioned.
24:20You won a million dollars on Who Wants to Be a Millionaire.
24:23I did.
24:24I did.
24:24I did.
24:25I think even more impressive.
24:27They didn't let me keep any of that money, by the way, to charity,
24:29which I think is unfair.
24:31We are suing ABC right now.
24:32You should sue the charity also.
24:34You should sue everybody.
24:35We're suing everyone.
24:35Guillermo, you've been named in the lawsuit.
24:37All right.
24:38We'll be deposed after the show.
24:39But I love talking to my funny friends,
24:41and I love asking trivia questions and having them asked of me.
24:45So I figured, let's just put my chocolate and your peanut butter.
24:49The idea is you bring a celebrity in.
24:51Yes.
24:51That person will tell you what their areas of specialty are.
24:55Yes, because I love when you have a friend and you randomly find out.
24:58You're like, wow, you know a lot about bicycles.
25:01You know what I mean?
25:02Like, where did that come from?
25:03So I kind of mine what areas they know.
25:07For example, Jimmy Kimmel is, we all know he loves pizza.
25:12But do you know he also loves Marvel comic books?
25:15I do.
25:15I do love Marvel comic books.
25:16Huge Marvel comic books.
25:17I was very impressed with your Marvel knowledge.
25:18I didn't know exactly why you were asking me.
25:21You texted me.
25:22You said, what things would you say you're kind of an expert in?
25:25And I said, I actually wrote it down.
25:27I said, pizza, fly fishing, 80s music, barbecue.
25:32Yes.
25:32David Letterman.
25:33Yes.
25:33Las Vegas.
25:34Yes.
25:35Masturbating.
25:37Marvel Comics.
25:38Yes.
25:39Radio.
25:39Yes.
25:40And masturbating again.
25:41Yes, you did.
25:42100% sure.
25:43And we decided on three categories.
25:45Yes.
25:46And masturbating is a different episode.
25:48Yes.
25:49Right, right, right.
25:49But we did pizza, we did 80s music, and Marvel Comics.
25:53And Marvel Comics, yes.
25:54And you did, I got to say, spoiler alert, you did very well.
25:57I didn't think I did well at all.
25:59Hold your head up high.
25:59I felt like I failed you.
26:01I felt like I was disappointing, no?
26:02I mean, again, the scores are arbitrary.
26:05It's less like a contest, more like a game.
26:08You whipped my ass, Pat.
26:09I feel like there should be a real prize at the end.
26:12You gave me kind of a prize, but it was something that I already had.
26:16So what do you want?
26:17Money?
26:18Yeah.
26:18Money would be great.
26:19Oh.
26:20What's your Venmo?
26:23I got like 50 bucks.
26:24That's it.
26:24Here's what I would think would be fun, is if I had to pay you if I lost.
26:29Oh.
26:29You know what I'm saying?
26:30Make it a bit of a betting game.
26:31Who else has been on it?
26:33Well, we had on Kate Hudson.
26:35Okay.
26:35Academy Award nominee Kate Hudson.
26:36What were her categories, can you say?
26:38Kate Hudson is...
26:39Let's give us one, so we don't...
26:40She knows a lot about cocktails.
26:42Oh.
26:43Kate Hudson's an alcoholic.
26:45And this is probably not the best forum to say that publicly, but she needs our help
26:49now more than ever.
26:52But she knows female singer-songwriters, 90s movies.
26:57It's just fascinating.
26:58Oh, really?
26:58There's multiple areas of expertise.
26:59Is that fair for her to get 90s movies, seeing as how she was in all of them?
27:03She was in them.
27:03I know.
27:04Seriously.
27:05What am I going to do?
27:06It's like if I was like...
27:07One of my categories is people in my seventh grade class.
27:13Are your kids also, like, good at trivia?
27:16Do they have that gene that you have?
27:18The...
27:19Yeah, they actually do, because I'd make them watch Jeopardy! with me, which makes them
27:22probably not cool at school.
27:24Uh-huh.
27:25But especially my middle daughter, Peyton, she really has a real...
27:29She zeroes in on that stuff?
27:30Yeah, yeah, yeah.
27:30Were you like that when you were a kid, too?
27:32Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.
27:33Trivial Pursuit.
27:34My parents were...
27:34We were in the 80s, and they would have dinner parties where they would play Trivial Pursuit.
27:38Yeah.
27:39I would be kind of in the corner watching and...
27:42And your dad's real good with that stuff, too.
27:44He's real good.
27:44Yeah, yeah, yeah.
27:44The whole family, though.
27:45My mom can tell you, like, if you hold up a painting, she'll be like, that's Andrew Wyeth.
27:49Really?
27:49And my brother...
27:50Even if it's not?
27:51No.
27:52That's the thing.
27:53She doesn't know, but we wanted to make her feel good about herself.
27:56So we say, yes, Mom.
27:57That is Andrew Wyeth.
27:59Did that instinct make you popular at school, the fact that you knew that kind of stuff?
28:03Well, I don't want to brag, guys, but my high school, we were the 1994 Illinois State
28:10Champions for Quiz Bowl.
28:11Oh, for Quiz Bowl.
28:12Really?
28:12Yes.
28:14The whole state.
28:15The whole state.
28:15And I think we finished, like, 11th in the country.
28:18Really?
28:18But to answer your question, no, it does not make you popular.
28:22You can win a trophy, and still the girls are like, I don't care.
28:26Where did you go for the Quiz Bowl championship?
28:28We went to Rice University in Houston, Texas.
28:31You did?
28:32And we...
28:33Was it scary?
28:34I mean, it was...
28:36I was nervous in the sense that I wanted to win, but I never felt more confident that
28:40I could beat everyone up there.
28:42Really?
28:42Yeah, because it's all a bunch of nerds.
28:43Yeah.
28:44Yeah, we were all, like, nerdy kids.
28:45Right.
28:46But you finished 11th, right?
28:4711th in the country.
28:48Yeah, right.
28:4911th in the country.
28:50Yes.
28:50Yes.
28:50What state won?
28:52I cannot remember.
28:53I can't...
28:54I couldn't tell you.
28:54Oh, wow.
28:55Weird thing that you wouldn't remember that.
28:56I mean, maybe that's why you lost, you know?
28:59It seems like a bit of trivia.
29:01That was the last question.
29:02Uh, who...
29:03Where is this team from?
29:07Well, the podcast, it's a lot of fun.
29:09It's called Funny You Ask with Ike Barinholtz.
29:11It premieres on March 25th, wherever you listen to podcasts.
29:16Ike Barinholtz, everybody.
29:17We'll be back with Wagner Moura.
29:25Tomorrow, on Jimmy Kimmel Live, Zach Braff with Donald Faison and Chris Fleming.
29:31Join us next week with guests Conan O'Brien, Olivia Munn, Will Forte, and Harrison Ford.
29:37Plus, music from Nora Jones and Josh Homme and Bebe Rexha.
29:52And Simon Sturbs sitting in with the Cleetos.
29:55Music from Tyler Ballgame is on the way.
29:57Our next guest is America's favorite, Pablo Escobar.
30:01He's the winner of the Golden Globe and now the first Brazilian ever
30:04to receive an Oscar nomination for Best Actor for his movie The Secret Agent.
30:09I am not a violent person.
30:18But this guy...
30:25I killed him with a sword.
30:27The Secret Agent is on all digital platforms now.
30:31Please welcome Wagner Moura.
30:53Welcome, welcome.
30:54It's great to have you here.
30:55Congratulations on everything.
30:57You're back here.
30:57Boy, you've had a lot of success with this film, huh?
31:00It's been a good journey.
31:02Yeah.
31:02You won the Golden Globe.
31:05You, um...
31:06You, um...
31:08Not only did you win it, you somehow...
31:09You have the ability to make it levitate.
31:11That is amazing.
31:12I don't know why I did that.
31:12Yeah, that's because it's very heavy.
31:15Yeah.
31:15That could have been very dangerous.
31:17It could have been.
31:18You were...
31:19If you're...
31:20Well, if you win the Oscar, will you throw the Oscar into the air as well?
31:24I don't...
31:25I don't know, man.
31:25I think it's...
31:26I'll think about it.
31:27If I win, maybe, maybe.
31:30Who are you bringing to the ceremony with you?
31:32I'm bringing my wife.
31:33I'm bringing three Brazilian friends that are coming.
31:35Oh.
31:36Okay, good.
31:36All right, all right.
31:37They're coming out special for that.
31:38Yeah.
31:39They are excited about it.
31:40I'm gonna bring them.
31:41Have you thought about your speech, should you win?
31:45Uh, you know what?
31:46I saw you...
31:48Uh-huh.
31:48...giving your acceptance speech at the Critics' Choice.
31:52Oh, yeah.
31:52Yeah, you were there, right?
31:53Yeah.
31:54And you thanked, uh, Trump.
31:56I did.
31:57I did.
31:57And I thought it was a brilliant idea, that I should basically thank Bolsonaro for...
32:02Bolsonaro is our Brazilian Donald Trump.
32:05Yeah, right.
32:06But...
32:07But our Trump is in jail.
32:10Yeah.
32:11And...
32:13How does that feel?
32:17It feels good, dude.
32:19It does, huh?
32:20But I...
32:21This film wouldn't happen...
32:23If it wasn't because of him.
32:26Because if the film...
32:27The Secret Agent came from our...
32:29The director and myself sharing our perplexity over what was going on in Brazil from Bolsonaro.
32:34Bolsonaro, for people who don't know, and you can obviously tell us a lot better than...
32:38Than I can, but he is very anti-gay, anti-women, anti-everybody, right?
32:43Anti-everything.
32:44Anti-democracy in general.
32:45Anti-democracy.
32:46Well, that's why he's in jail for attempting against...
32:48And, of course, Trump loves them.
32:49And...
32:49Oh, he loves them.
32:50He threatened Brazil with tariffs.
32:52Huge tariffs, right?
32:53Like 75% tariffs.
32:55Because he wanted Brazil to release Bolsonaro, and thankfully, the Brazilian...
32:59Yeah, and then you guys said no, and he's like, all right, forget that tariffs.
33:01Forget about the tariffs, yeah.
33:03Yeah, that's how it usually goes with them.
33:04That's how...
33:05And Bolsonaro, and correct me if I have this wrong, but didn't he prevent your...
33:09Like, your last film from coming out?
33:12Delated?
33:12I directed the film back in 2017.
33:16I was very unlucky because he was elected democratically in 2018.
33:22And then my film was premiered in Berlin in 2019.
33:26It's a film about this revolutionary, a real character, a guy who was the leader of the resistance in Brazil
33:33against the dictatorship.
33:34And so Bolsonaro, of course, he didn't like the idea of...
33:37Right.
33:37He praises the dictatorship.
33:39He thinks that the dictatorship was an amazing moment of Brazilian history.
33:42So the film premiered in Berlin in 2019, and we just couldn't release the film in Brazil.
33:48We could only release the film in Brazil in 2021 because he basically did everything he could to prevent that
33:53to happen.
33:54And then did it...
33:54Were people even more interested in seeing it?
33:56Oh, yeah, of course.
33:57It was a huge success.
33:58That's the thing they don't seem to figure out, right?
34:00It was a big hit in Brazil, yeah.
34:01When they try to squash something, people are...
34:03That's when people want to see things.
34:04Yeah, really wanting to see it.
34:06Now, you, for your young life, lived under a dictatorship in Brazil.
34:12I was born in 76.
34:14The dictatorship ended in 85.
34:16But the thing, Jim, is like...
34:18Yeah, so I couldn't say that I grew up during the dictatorship, but the echoes of the dictatorship are still
34:25very present in Brazil.
34:26The dictatorship ended in 85, but didn't really end in 85.
34:30Bolsonaro himself, and I hate to be talking about him, like...
34:33Don't worry, he probably doesn't get TV where he is.
34:35I don't think it does.
34:38But he is himself a manifestation of those echoes.
34:42I see.
34:43Those things that you just mentioned.
34:44So, even though it ended, it still took some time to get to a place.
34:48Yeah.
34:48To today, yeah.
34:49He was elected democratically.
34:52Do you think that the people of your country were more sensitive to that when it came to Bolsonaro because
35:00they'd seen it happen?
35:01They said, oh, this is happening again.
35:03We got to get rid of this guy.
35:05No.
35:06I think that what happened, the idea of Brazilian knowing what a dictatorship is, made Brazil react really differently from
35:16the way Americans reacted when...
35:19Because we had the exact same thing, an election denier that made people invade the institutions and break things down.
35:26Brazil was very quick, very fast in sending people to jail.
35:30And Bolsonaro is in jail.
35:32The financiers are in jail.
35:33And I think that happened because Brazilians know what a dictatorship is.
35:38Yeah, we...
35:38I don't think for most of us that we really, truly believe it is possible yet.
35:44Yes.
35:45Yeah.
35:45Well, how about now?
35:46You live here in L.A., right?
35:48How does it feel?
35:50And again, we, you know, you grow up, you live in, God bless the USA,
35:54and the red, white and blue and justice prevails and Superman and all that kind of stuff.
36:00And you think like, oh, well, ultimately, we'll come out on the right side.
36:03I was concerned about that.
36:03I was like, do Americans take democracy for granted?
36:06But now, I don't think so.
36:08You know, I think that when you see what happened in Minneapolis, for example,
36:11this is the country that exported to the rest of the world civil rights fight.
36:19You know, like, this is the country of Martin Luther King.
36:22Like, we're not even aware that we exported that.
36:25But you did, yeah.
36:26Yeah.
36:26And many of those values were made a lot of sense in Brazil, for example, for a long time.
36:33In Brazil, I know that your movie is just unbelievably popular.
36:36And you are unbelievably popular as well.
36:39So much so that at Carnival, this is a, well, first of all, we got Ozzy here.
36:45Yeah.
36:45And is this Lady Gaga here?
36:47Yeah.
36:47And then there's you.
36:49And that's me.
36:49And look at the size.
36:50I mean, this is a gigantic.
36:53Dolls.
36:53Is this a puppet or what is this?
36:54It's a puppet.
36:55It's a big doll.
36:56This is a very traditional thing in the Carnival.
37:00Carnival is a big thing in Brazil.
37:02Yeah, sure.
37:02Yeah.
37:02And this is in Recife.
37:04This is in Olinda, where they have the tradition of making those big puppets.
37:09Do you?
37:10Did they give this to you?
37:11Where is this?
37:12It's too big, Jimmy.
37:13I can't have that.
37:14Oh, you have to have it.
37:15It's like this.
37:16I would have it.
37:16I'd bring it to every family function.
37:20I'd probably never take it all.
37:21There is a guy right here.
37:22There's a guy.
37:23Yeah.
37:24Yeah, that would be me.
37:24I'd be the guy under my own puppet.
37:29He doesn't look happy.
37:32He looks very displeased.
37:34Well, I would find that thing and I would bring it to the Oscars.
37:38That's what I would do.
37:39Well, I'll try to.
37:40Something to consider.
37:42Wagner Moore, the secret agent.
37:44You can watch him on all the digital platforms and watch him at the Oscars, too.
37:49We'll be right back with Tyler Ballgame.
37:58Thanks to I, thanks to Wagner, thanks to Si Smith.
38:01Apologies to Matt Damon.
38:03Nightline is next, but first his album is called for the first time again.
38:06Here with the song, Matter of Taste, Tyler Ballgame.

38:17I won't wait for more than
38:20Now I only don't believe in the power in my soul

38:28I could have cried one more time
38:31Now you know that the feeling in my head was real
