00:07From Studio 6P in Rockefeller's Center in the Heart of New York City,
00:11is the Tonight Show starring Jimmy Fallon.
00:17Tonight, join Jimmy and his guests, Lisa Kudrow, Robert Irwin,
00:22Stevie Van Zandt, a musical performance from the Rocky Horror Show
00:26and featuring the legendary Roots crew.
00:28And now, here he is, Jimmy Fallon!
00:49Love, love, love, love, love.
01:02That's what I'm talking about!
01:04Love you guys!
01:05Thank you. Enjoy yourself, enjoy yourself, enjoy yourself.
01:08Welcome, everybody. Welcome, welcome, welcome to The Tonight Show!
01:12You're here. This is The Tonight Show.
01:15Welcome.
01:17Yeah, well, guys, today is May the 4th, also known as Star Wars Day.
01:25As in, May the 4th be with you.
01:28Yeah.
01:29Everyone loves Star Wars.
01:30In fact, earlier today, President Trump made Marco Rubio dress up as Baby Yoda.
01:34I thought that was, I thought that was cute.
01:37Meanwhile, to celebrate Star Wars Day, Spirit Airlines put out an announcement that said,
01:41Out of the business, we are.
01:46Over the weekend, though, that's true, Spirit Airlines officially went out of business.
01:50Yeah.
01:51When they heard Frontier was like, oh, no, are we the worst airline now?
01:56No.
02:02That's right.
02:02This weekend, Spirit Airlines officially went out of business after 34 years.
02:06Here to comment, a man who's exclusively been flying Spirit Airlines for 34 years.
02:12Hi, Jimmy.
02:13Hi.
02:14Yeah.
02:16It's a sad day.
02:17Yeah, yeah, I'm very sorry.
02:19What are you going to do?
02:20I don't know.
02:22I mean, Spirit Airlines wasn't perfect, but it was a huge part of my life for the last three decades.
02:26I live in Ohio, and my daughter lives in Oregon.
02:29That's almost a 40-hour drive.
02:31How are we ever going to see each other again?
02:37I mean, there are other airlines.
02:44There are other airlines?
02:47Yeah, you didn't know that?
02:49Of course I didn't.
02:51Why would I have been flying Spirit if I knew there were other options?
02:56I don't know.
02:56I thought you liked it.
02:58You thought I liked Spirit Airlines.
03:02Before every flight, they pass out little propeller hats in case something happens.
03:08Are the other airlines worse?
03:10No, they're way better.
03:13What?
03:14How?
03:15How?
03:15Do the pilots not go around taking sips of your drink mid-flight?
03:20No, the pilots aren't drunk.
03:23What?
03:25Then how do they work up the courage to climb out the window mid-flight and tie the wings back
03:29on?
03:31Other airlines have planes with wings that stay on.
03:34What?
03:36Like all the time?
03:38Oh, this is unbelievable.
03:40Spirit has been taking me for granted.
03:41I mean, it took them forever to add wolves to every flight.
03:49Why would you want wolves on your flight?
03:52To control the feral cat population?
03:56Why was there a feral cat population?
03:59To control the giant rat population?
04:03Is that not how other airlines work?
04:05A man has been flying Spirit for 34 years, everyone.
04:08Thank you for...
04:08He's the best day of my life.
04:10Thank you very much.
04:11Congratulations.
04:12I'm out!
04:12Wow.
04:14Goodness.
04:17Well, some news from Washington.
04:19President Trump has promised to review Iran's new 14-point peace plan,
04:23but has already said he can't imagine that it would be acceptable.
04:28Yep.
04:28Nothing says diplomacy like,
04:30I haven't read it, and the answer's no.
04:34Meanwhile, Trump said the U.S. will start escorting ships
04:37through the Strait of Hormuz.
04:39It feels like the best-case scenario
04:40when you hear Trump starting an escort service.
04:46Say hello.
04:50Say hello to USS Cinnamon.
04:52Cinnamon.
04:54Should be with you all evening.
04:57That's right.
04:58Trump has ordered the Navy to escort ships
05:00through the Strait of Hormuz,
05:01but other than that,
05:02there still seems to be no plan for the end of the war.
05:05But Trump just put out this update,
05:06and let's see if that helps.
05:07It's me, President Trump.
05:10A lot of people are wondering what I'm thinking
05:11about the situation in Iran,
05:13and I'll tell you what I'm thinking.
05:14Full maritime liberty.
05:18Each and every day, under my leadership,
05:20we are securing crude, refined energy
05:23wherever exports demand.
05:26But we're on it,
05:27because my entire staff is completely addicted
05:29turning every questionable uncertainty
05:32into logical answers.
05:35Bye!
05:36There you go.
05:37Well, that helps.
05:38Thank you, man.
05:38Thank you, man.
05:39Thank you, man.
05:42Thank you, man.
05:43And finally, over the weekend,
05:45Trump went on a late-night meme-posting spree,
05:47which included an AI-generated image
05:49of himself playing Uno
05:51with the caption,
05:52I have all the cards.
05:57So that confirms it.
05:59Trump has no idea how someone wins Uno.
06:03I win.
06:04I got safe.
06:07We have a great show.
06:08Give it up for the Rootsides of government now.

07:44I went to my first F1 race.
07:48And...
07:49Have you done it?
07:50Have you ever been?
07:51A few times.
07:51Yeah.
07:51Yeah, yeah.
07:52It is unbelievable.
07:53I had the greatest time.

07:57you know, no big deal.
07:58Just Max Verstappen and
08:00Isak Hajar.
08:04Uh, here's me hanging out
08:06with the CEO of F1,
08:08Stefano Domenicali.
08:10Whoa!
08:11I mean, big time.
08:13Uh, here's me with the Red Bull team.
08:17That's...
08:20Here's me pretending to touch the car.
08:22Oh.
08:23They wouldn't let me...
08:25They wouldn't let me touch the car.
08:27Over the camera.
08:27They said, you can go buy it.
08:29Try not to really breathe.
08:30Right.
08:30So I held my breath
08:31and pretended I touched it.
08:33Uh, we went over with Ford.
08:35We were a guest of Ford Racing.
08:37They were awesome.
08:37We shot a sketch for our show
08:39with Max.
08:40It's gonna be on Wednesday
08:42or Thursday night this week.
08:43It was super fun.
08:44And I got to go to the garage.
08:47I got to see all the, uh,
08:49all the cars.
08:50I got to do a thing called, uh, a hot lap.
08:52Ooh.
08:53Which is...
08:55So I didn't...
08:55So they put you in...
08:56I was in a, uh, Mustang, uh, uh, SC,
09:00like, supercharged, like, some race car.
09:02And you just go with a driver.
09:03Thank goodness.
09:04Yeah.
09:04I don't know what...
09:05Yeah, yeah.
09:06I wasn't driving.
09:07No, no, no.
09:07I was in the passenger
09:08and we went around the track.
09:10Like, so fast.
09:11At one point,
09:12I think we were going 160 miles an hour.
09:15No, I was...
09:16All of my insides
09:19were moving to the door.
09:20Like, every piece of fat on my body
09:24was like...
09:25We won out.
09:25It was like centrifugal force.
09:27We won out.
09:28Like, this side of my body, jacked.
09:30I had abs.
09:31I had three abs.
09:34This side, double muffin top.
09:35It was like, whoa, whoa, whoa.
09:37It was amazing.
09:39I had the greatest time.
09:40And then, uh, the race happens.
09:42And it's so interesting
09:43because you're watching the race.
09:45I don't really know where to stand yet.
09:48This is my first F1.
09:49So you're watching it.
09:50It's kind of...
09:50There's nothing.
09:51You're just looking at a road.
09:52Then all of a sudden, it's like...
09:56And then nothing.
09:58And you go...
09:59And I think...
10:00But so you have to, like, glance up at it.
10:01It was so exciting.
10:03There's so many...
10:04I did...
10:04They have a thing called the grid
10:05or something like that
10:06where they had you go out into the track
10:09right before the race.
10:10And you do, like, 20 interviews
10:14with reporters all over the world
10:17just coming up to you
10:18and going, what do you think of the race?
10:20Martin Brundle, by the way,
10:21your microphone tastes delicious.
10:24Yeah, everyone just comes up.
10:25Like, well, who do you think is going to win?
10:26What are you going to do?
10:26It was so exciting and so fun.
10:28I think it actually brought a video of me
10:30watching the race.
10:30Do we have that?
10:40There you go.
10:41That's what I was doing.
10:43I was like, I got it.
10:45I got it.
10:45No.
10:47My neck hurts me.
10:50My neck hurts me,
10:51but at least I have three abs over here.
10:53I want to say thank you again to F1.
10:55I had the best time.
10:55Thank you, Miami, the great host.
10:57And thanks to Ford.
10:59It's going to be a funny bit.
11:01It's good.
11:03Guys, it's time to play Who Said It?
11:05Here we go.
11:05Oh!
11:07You said it.
11:09You said it.
11:10All right, here's how it works.
11:13I'm going to show you a real quote, okay?
11:15And it's up to you to decide who said it, okay?
11:17And tonight, we're looking at quotes
11:19that could have been said by either
11:20President Trump or a cartoon character.
11:23Okay.
11:24Okay?
11:25President Trump or a cartoon character.
11:26So let's take a look at our first quote.
11:28It is, I'm a TV star.
11:30Oh.
11:34Come on.
11:35I'm a TV star.
11:36No, he would never.
11:37I think, no.
11:38I think he wouldn't say that.
11:39He had to have said that.
11:40I don't think he believes he's a TV star.
11:41No.
11:42I think he thinks he's a movie star.
11:45I think he's a super.
11:46He thinks he's a superstar.
11:48Yeah, he's not just a TV star.
11:49Yeah, no.
11:50That's under him.
11:51That's under him, right?
11:52Yeah, yeah.
11:53I'm going to say Trump.
11:54You think Trump?
11:55Yes.
11:55Higgins says Trump.
11:56I also say Trump.
11:58Quest?
11:58Cartoon.

12:10I love it.
12:12Dabba, dabba, bone.
12:13All right, here's our next quote.
12:15She would get me to do things for doggies that you wouldn't believe.
12:20Trump.
12:20Oh.
12:21She would get me to do things for doggies that you wouldn't believe.
12:25Yeah.
12:25It's got to be Trump.
12:26Yeah, it's got to be Trump.
12:27I don't want to go into it, because whatever I say.
12:29Definitely Trump.
12:30It's Trump.
12:30Yeah, Trump.
12:30That one's, right, audience?
12:32Trump!
12:33I think that was, I think it was the president.
12:36She would get me to do things for doggies that you wouldn't believe.
12:51He's not even moving.
12:53It's like a radio, like a podcast.
12:55He's not even moving.
12:55You think she would get me to do doggies?
12:59Let's do another one here.
13:00The quote is, stand up, big boy, stand up.
13:04Come on.
13:05Gosh dang it.
13:06I know.
13:07Everyone keeps saying Trump for all these.
13:09I know, because they're all, yeah.
13:10All right, you guys think it was Trump?
13:14Ah, see, with him, this cartoon, I think.
13:17Here we go.
13:17All right, let's see who said it.
13:18Stand up, big boy.
13:19Stand up.
13:22Stand up, big boy.
13:24Come on.
13:25Stand up, big boy.
13:26He could have been talking to Bob's big boy, you know?
13:27Yeah.
13:28All right, let's do one more here.
13:29This one is, I got a hole in one.
13:36It's without a doubt Trump.
13:37Yeah.
13:37Yeah.
13:38Let's see.
13:38I think, you think Trump, right?
13:41Yeah, I think so.
13:42I got a hole in one.
13:48Daisy Duck.
13:49Daisy Duck.
13:52Wait, I'm hearing, I'm hearing we have another clip.
13:55Can we see it?
13:56I got a hole in one.
13:57There you go.
13:58Everybody wins.
14:00That's all the time we have for Who Said It?
14:02Stick around.
14:02We'll be right back with Lisa Kludrow.
14:04Oh, yeah.
14:05Fuck.
14:09Get ready for some scandal, some tea.
14:13What is your take?
14:15Were they on a break?
14:16It's beyond break or not.
14:17It's beyond.
14:18It's levels.
14:19A bad boyfriend.
14:20Yeah.
14:21When I...
14:21Oh, you agree!
14:33Our first guest is an Emmy winner
14:36who co-created, wrote, and stars in the comedy series
14:40The Comeback, the season three finale airs Sunday,
14:43May 10th at 10.30 p.m. on HBO Max.
14:46Please welcome Lisa Kudrow!
14:49Come back, girl, but come back
14:52This is where you belong
14:55Come back, girl, but come back
14:58Here I'm a love
15:00That's right!
15:02That's right!
15:04That's right!
15:05They love you.
15:06Come on!
15:08Welcome back!
15:11They love you.
15:12Come on!
15:12Yeah, nice.
15:13They love you.
15:14Yeah.
15:16We love you.
15:18Thanks for... We have a lot to talk about.
15:20First, I want to get into...
15:21You did a thing with Architectural Digest.
15:24Yeah. Where you went back to the Warner lot.
15:27Yeah. Where you filmed Friends.
15:29Yes. And the comeback.
15:30And the comeback, yeah. As well.
15:31That's kind of insane that you got both giant shows
15:34in the same studio.
15:36Well, it was insane, yes,
15:37that the two most impactful shows for me...
15:40Yeah.
15:43...were finishing up on the same stage.
15:46That's why...
15:47I know, because this is the last of the comeback, too.
15:50Here's a picture of you with the...
15:51I think they have a plaque outside.
15:52And then, yes.
15:53Oh, I tried not to cry,
15:55because I never would have stopped.
15:56Warner Brothers put the comeback on the plaque.
16:00That's Friends.
16:01That's Mike and Molly.
16:02That's the Friends reunion.
16:04And then...
16:05Come on, bud.
16:06Oh, no. Oh, no.
16:08I don't want to see Lisa Kudrow cry.
16:10Don't cry at our show.
16:12Okay. I won't.
16:13Yeah, well.
16:13Yeah.
16:14I heard...
16:15I was reading somewhere that you said
16:16that you have a new thought on the...
16:19Ross and Rachel,
16:19we were on a break.
16:20Yeah, I'm afraid now to bring it up.
16:22No, this is scandalous.
16:23Get real.
16:24Get ready for some scandal.
16:26Some tea.
16:27What is your take?
16:29Were they on a break?
16:31Well, no.
16:33But it's beyond that.
16:35It's beyond break or not.
16:37It's beyond.
16:38It's levels.
16:39A bad boyfriend.
16:40Yeah.
16:41When I...
16:41Oh, you agree.
16:42Yeah.
16:43Look at that.
16:44You agree.
16:45I agree.
16:47Someone finally said it.
16:48Yes.
16:49He's a bad boyfriend.
16:51Oh, I feel better.
16:52Very good.
16:53That's why I'm here.
16:55That's why I'm here.
16:56Thank you for this.
16:57Thank you, all of you.
16:58But we did the reunion just like four or five years ago.
17:01Are they on a break?
17:02They were on a break.
17:03We were all so like, they were on a break.
17:05That's funny.
17:06Rachel, that hysterical true.
17:09Yeah.
17:09Not letting him sleep with someone and won't get back with him.
17:12She shouldn't have gotten back with him because he was horrible.
17:17Anyway, it shouldn't have been about.
17:19To me, it's like, I don't care if he slept with three other women or no other women.
17:24Yeah.
17:25You had to work for a...
17:26You had a crisis at work so you weren't available for a few nights and he flipped out.
17:31And you're like, wow.
17:33Yes!
17:34I love this.
17:36Have you talked to David about this?
17:39He knows now.
17:40He knows now.
17:41We'll talk about that later.
17:42Let's talk about the comeback.
17:44Let's talk about the comeback.
17:45By the way, thank you for doing this.
17:47You're so funny in this show.
17:49What's happening this season and what is going to happen for the finale?
17:53Do you know?
17:54For the finale.
17:55Because this is the...
17:56You've said this, this is the last season.
17:58This is the end.
17:59You're not doing this again.
18:00No.
18:01Really?
18:02Yeah.
18:03You're so good.
18:05Someone saw it.
18:06Yeah.
18:06Yeah.
18:07We all saw it.
18:08We all saw it.
18:09But I mean, because you have the perfect ending, you think?
18:12I think so.
18:12It's so full circle.
18:14And I don't know.
18:15A couple people have seen it that said, I got to go back and watch seasons one and two.
18:20I have to rethink everything now.
18:22Ooh.
18:22Yeah.
18:23Ooh.
18:23Very good.
18:24Well, I make it...
18:25You'll be so disappointed now.
18:26No, no, no, no, no, no.
18:28It just made it seem like, you know, no, the whole thing was a dream or an alternate reality.
18:32No, it's not.
18:33But just...
18:33But you created this with Michael Patrick King?
18:36Yes.
18:36Sex and the City.
18:38Come on.
18:38He knows what he's doing.
18:39He knows what he's doing.
18:40Yeah, he does.
18:41And the cast is fantastic and super fun.
18:44They're so good.
18:45And we've got so many, like, fun.
18:47We didn't have famous actors before on it ever.
18:50Yeah.
18:50Because you needed to believe...
18:52That your character is famous.
18:53That everybody's a real person.
18:55Yeah.
18:56It's reality and stuff.
18:56You made me laugh because the first...
18:58No spoilers.
18:59The first episode of The Comeback, you are Valerie and you're a big deal.
19:04You're stepping into Chicago on Broadway.
19:07Yes.
19:07Yeah.
19:08Because there's a writer's strike, so there's nothing to do.
19:10But...
19:11Yeah.
19:11Didn't you realize how much work goes into it?
19:13It's so much work.
19:14It's so much work.
19:15Right.
19:16Of course it is, yes.
19:17And she's not good.
19:18No.
19:18She's not...
19:19She shouldn't be doing a musical.
19:21No.
19:21At all.
19:22And it's very, very good and very funny.
19:24So she pretends someone else's COVID test as well.
19:26That's very...
19:27We're all in trouble now.
19:28Yeah.
19:29That's good.
19:30But then what happens to your character is she finally gets a job.
19:33She wants to do a sitcom.
19:34So bad.
19:35Oh, yeah.
19:35She's offered a lead in a sitcom.
19:37So you're like, yes, you did it.
19:38Yeah.
19:38Here's the catch.
19:40It's written by A.I.
19:41That's right.
19:43So what...
19:44That's the premise of this season.
19:45So you're desperate, but you go, am I that?
19:47I can't do it.
19:48Yeah.
19:48I can't...
19:49No.
19:49All the writers will hate me.
19:51We need writers.
19:52We need humans.
19:52That's what that strike was about.
19:54Yes.
19:54But it was so...
19:56But you play it so well.
19:58Right.
19:58Then the head of the network says, oh, no, we've got writers.
20:01And we've got the...
20:02You know, we're good with the WGA.
20:04We're within the rules.
20:06Yeah, exactly.
20:07We're within the...
20:07But then you end up kind of being the producer and the...
20:10Yeah.
20:10And then she ends up having to run the show.
20:13And you've got to really make a choice.
20:14It's just very, very funny.
20:16I want to show a clip.
20:16Here's Lisa Kudrow in season three of The Comeback.
20:19Take a look.
20:19Yeah.
20:20Right?
20:20You're not a villain.
20:21You're not.
20:22No.
20:23Look, all those mean comments.
20:24That much anger and rage.
20:26That's not about you.
20:28About them.
20:29It is.
20:30So don't waste your time with it.
20:31You've got a network to run.
20:33And you are doing a wonderful job.
20:36You are.
20:39Mm.
20:39I just...
20:42Just could really use a hug.
20:44Oh, okay.
20:45But this is an open concept working environment.
20:48Right.
20:49Can't get a hug.
20:50Yeah, right.
20:51It's inappropriate.
20:52Yeah.
20:53Well, consider yourself hugged.
20:59Yeah.
21:01Self-care.
21:04That's how you knew it.
21:05Lisa Kudrow, everybody.
21:07Season three finale of The Comeback airs May 10th
21:11at 10.30 p.m. on HBO Max.
21:14Robert Irwin joins us after the break.
21:16Stick around, everybody.
21:20You have a thing now that is called your signature move.
21:23I do.
21:24You know what I'm talking about?
21:25I do.
21:25I was just wondering, is there any possible way?
21:29I don't want to put pressure on.
21:30You can say no.
21:31And we can edit it out.
21:32But could you do it for us tonight?
21:33Yeah!
21:47Our next guest is a wildlife conservationist
21:50and the reigning Dancing with the Stars champion.
21:53He's hosting a brand-new series called
21:55Dancing with the Stars, The Next Pro,
21:58which premieres July 13th on ABC.
22:00Please welcome Robert Irwin!
22:22Welcome back to the show.
22:27Ow!
22:30It's like I've never left.
22:31It's like you've never left.
22:32It's like no time has passed.
22:34It's so good to see you guys again.
22:35It's so good to see you.
22:37Dude.
22:38Uh, this is your 14th appearance on our show.
22:42That's crazy.
22:43Yeah.
22:43That is insane.
22:44Wow.
22:44I have a photo of you.
22:45How old were you when you first...
22:47Oh, my goodness.
22:48Look at that haircut.
22:50Look at the khaki uniform.
22:52You know what I always say?
22:53The khaki is not just a color.
22:55It's an attitude and it's always right here in my heart.
22:57Yeah.
22:57All the time.
22:59That was...
23:00I remember that like it was yesterday.
23:02I'd just turned 13 years old.
23:04Wow.
23:04Hyperactive little kid.
23:05Yeah.
23:06And...
23:06Oh, you're so cute.
23:07It was so special.
23:08Like, seriously, man, you created some of the most special memories
23:12that I'll just keep with me forever.
23:14Uh...
23:14And, you know, it was a way to spread my passion for conservation,
23:18really, for the first time, to America.
23:21It really kicked off so much.
23:23So, thank you, man.
23:24Oh, please.
23:25Oh, my God.
23:28Here's you and your mom at the Steve Irwin Gala.
23:30There's my mom.
23:31Oh, she's cool.
23:31How cool is my mom?
23:33She's the best.
23:33I love...
23:34Terry is the best and gorgeous and the coolest and I love her so much.
23:37But you did this...
23:38This is now...
23:39How many years have you been doing?
23:40We've been doing this gala for many years.
23:42You know, my dad passed about 20 years ago.
23:45We're going on about 20 years ago.
23:47And every year, we host this incredible gala
23:50as a celebration of everything that he was about.
23:52Of course, the charity that he and my mom started,
23:55Wildlife Warriors, which is doing worldwide conservation work,
23:59but also to celebrate his sense of fun and family and passion.
24:04Yes.
24:04And my mom, she's the one to keep that all going.
24:07That's the reason his legacy is still alive.
24:09It's because of this incredible and strong woman.
24:12Yeah.
24:13She is just amazing.
24:14And I'm lucky to follow my mom.
24:16You know what?
24:17Most successful gala we've ever had.
24:19Is that right?
24:19We raised a massive amount for our charity.
24:22So it was awesome, man.
24:23And you did a little dancing as well at the gala.
24:26I had to break out the giant, mate.
24:28You had to.
24:28Get those kicks going, you know?
24:30Yes!
24:33Let's talk about the new show now.
24:34Dancing with the Stars, the next pro.
24:36Yeah, man.
24:37This is a great idea.
24:38It's cool.
24:39It's a big idea.
24:40It's cool.
24:42Talk to me about it.
24:43How's it work?
24:44Dude, this is insane.
24:45So, obviously, anyone who watches Dancing with the Stars, we know the pros on the show.
24:50They're the ones that really...
24:51That's the backbone of the show.
24:53Yeah.
24:53These incredible professional dancers.
24:54A new crop of stars every year that they teach.
24:57But this time, it's the journey of finding the next new pro.
25:02So we have the best up-and-comer dancers, 12 of them.
25:06They're going in, they're battling it out, learning every skill it takes to be the pro.
25:10And at the end, one is crowned as the next pro of Dancing with the Stars.
25:13And they will be on the next season.
25:14And they'll be on the next season.
25:16And we shot it in Brisbane.
25:17So right at Australia Zoo.
25:19There's even an episode that may or may not take place with some of my animals back at
25:23Australia Zoo.
25:23It was cool.
25:25How are the animals?
25:26How is everybody?
25:27Oh, amazing.
25:28Yeah.
25:29I know you had a baby crocodile you named Jimmy Fallon.
25:31I did.
25:33You remember that?
25:34You know what, Jimmy?
25:35He's not a baby anymore.
25:37I named this crocodile Jimmy Fallon, like, years ago.
25:40And he's now what we call a boss croc.
25:42He's huge, right?
25:44So we research crocodiles.
25:47We research crocodiles.
25:48He's not too big.
25:49He's not too big.
25:49He's not normal size.
25:50No, no, no.
25:51Normal size for a crocodile.
25:55I mean, as you get older, you start to put some pounds on.
25:59You know what it's like.
26:00Well, I'll tell you what he did.
26:01Because we research crocodiles in the wild to, like, better conserve them, right?
26:05Yeah.
26:05So the way you do that, my dad came up with this, is you actually have to jump on them,
26:09right?
26:10So I jumped on the back of Jimmy Fallon.
26:12And he...
26:13And he...
26:13No, no, no.
26:14No.
26:15And get this.
26:16The little...
26:18He...
26:18He death rolled me.
26:19I jumped onto him.
26:21I kid you not.
26:2214 foot of crocodile.
26:24Big croc.
26:25Death rolls me.
26:26So I'm stuck underneath him with my arm hanging out.
26:28I've got, like, probably, I don't know, maybe 700 pounds on top of me.
26:32And I'm just like, what do I do?
26:34And luckily, he rolled back the other way and I was fine.
26:37But he's a goer, Jimmy.
26:38Go, Jimmy Fallon.
26:39He's a goer.
26:40He's a goer.
26:41I love that.
26:44But yeah, lots of baby animals at the zoo.
26:46It's great.
26:47It's great, yeah.
26:47Congrats.
26:48Before you go, I have to ask, because you were so great on Dancing with the Stars.
26:52You actually...
26:53You have a thing now that is called your signature move.
26:57And...
26:57I do.
26:58I was just wondering, is there any possible way?
27:02I don't want to put pressure on.
27:03You can say no.
27:04And we can edit it out.
27:05But could you do it for us tonight?
27:09Let's do it.
27:10Let's do it.
27:11Alright.
27:12This is a worm into a kip-hop.
27:14We ready? We ready?
27:20Come on!
27:20That's how you do it!

27:57Who has been года?
27:59and a member of the legendary East Street Band.
28:01He's also the founder of the nonprofit Teach Rock.
28:04Please welcome Stevie Van Zandt!
28:07My name's a teacher
28:11That is the word I call myself
28:15My name's a teacher
28:18That's right!
28:19That is what I call myself
28:23Don't want it on me. Come on.
28:28That's what I'm talking about, the one and only.
28:31Welcome back to the show. Always great to see you.
28:33Good to see you, man.
28:34You're a busy, busy man.
28:35A little bit. A little bit.
28:37You just launched a Mezcal, by the way.
28:39Congratulations.
28:40Look at this. I love Mezcal.
28:43Thanks for signing it for me. This is a maple Mezcal.
28:46Malvado Maple Mezcal, baby.
28:47Come on, bud! Thanks, y'all. I'm keeping this one.
28:50I got one for the band, too.
28:51Yeah, you got one for the band, too. Yeah, good.
28:53Appreciate that. Yeah.
28:54Everything that you're doing is just...
28:55I mean, you're a rock star, but you also get to do other fun things
28:58and teach rock. You get to do that.
29:00You're on tour with you and Bruce Springsteen.
29:02No big deal. Just selling out the garden.
29:04Hey.
29:06Sometimes I watch you and I go, I don't want them to stop.
29:09But then I go, wait, they're doing three-hour shows?
29:12I go, do you ever go, like, do we have to do three hours?
29:15Well, we used to do four, so it's nice and civilized now.
29:20Yeah, four was abusive.
29:22That was a bit much, yeah.
29:24So now you're down to a tight three hours.
29:25Exactly.
29:26That's amazing that you do that, but you love it.
29:28Yeah, I got to love it.
29:29You know, it's got so many good songs, you know, what are you going to do?
29:32Yeah, exactly. What are you going to do?
29:36Well, I know your beautiful wife, Maureen,
29:39and you've been married for 43 years now.
29:42Is that correct? Something like that, yeah?
29:44Come on. Something like that, you know.
29:46She's a saint. She's obviously a saint.
29:48She's a saint, obviously, yeah.
29:49But you were so cool.
29:50You brought us a photo from your wedding,
29:52and I love this photo, and you're going to understand why.
29:55So there's your best man. That's Bruce right there.
29:58But then officiating the wedding...
30:00Oh, there's your beautiful wife.
30:02And then officiating the wedding is Little Richard.
30:05What are you talking about?
30:06How did you get Little Richard to officiate your wedding?
30:10I called him.
30:12What was he like?
30:14I mean, he was crazy.
30:15Yes!
30:16As you had hoped.
30:17Yeah, you want him to be.
30:19Yeah, I want Little Richard to be Little Richard.
30:20Like, woo!
30:22Did he give a couple woo?
30:23Yes, he did that.
30:25I remember him turning into a preacher in the early 60s,
30:29and I said, you know, let's have a rock and roll wedding.
30:32Come on, man.
30:33You know, if you're going to get married, let's do it right.
30:35But you also had Percy Sledge at your wedding?
30:37Yeah, he sang When a Man Loose a Woman.
30:39We walked down the aisle.
30:40What? The real Percy Sledge sang When a Man Loose a Woman?
30:42Why is it going?
30:43And you had, is this true, that you had the band from The Godfather?
30:47Yeah.
30:47As your wedding band?
30:48Yeah.
30:49What are you talking about?
30:51I'm so jealous that I was not at this wedding.
30:57It's fun. A lot of fun.
30:58It's always fun.
30:59From what I hear.
31:00Yeah, from what you hear.
31:01Yeah, you don't remember it.
31:02I don't remember a damn thing.
31:04It must be a lot of fun.
31:05Your wife actually played your wife on The Sopranos.
31:08That's right.
31:08That's her real wife.
31:10Look at how cool you guys are.
31:12Uh, Silvio, is this true that you were actually, uh, originally supposed to play Tony Soprano?
31:18Yeah.
31:18Yeah.
31:19Um, you know, David Chase was in a mood to, like, break all the rules, you know?
31:23Yeah.
31:23So, he's gonna decide to, you know, cast the lead with a guy who never acted before.
31:28And, uh, and so it came close and HBO was like, are you out of your mind?
31:32You know?
31:33This is a big investment for us.
31:35Uh, we actually have a clip of your audition for Tony Soprano.
31:38This is real.
31:39Take a look at this.
31:39Let me tell you something.
31:41Everybody these days going to streets and, uh, and counselors, they're all selling Jesse Raphael.
31:48Tell everybody they have problems.
31:50Dysfunctionist.
31:51Dysfunctionist.
31:52Dysfunctionist.
31:52Dysfunctionist.
31:52Dysfunctionist.
31:54Come on.
31:55Come on!
31:57I would have loved it.
31:58I would have loved it, Tony.
31:59But you were perfect for Silvio.
32:01And now you're doing this nonprofit called Teach Rock.
32:04It's a great organization.
32:05Uh, it starts, it's bringing music back in the classrooms, keeping it, trying to keep it in classrooms.
32:10Yeah, the original goal was just, you know, let's keep the arts in the DNA of the public education system.
32:16Because it's been all, it's been cut out, you know?
32:18Yeah.
32:19For years.
32:19It's sad.
32:20Number one, um, yeah.
32:24Number two, um, to try and create a new methodology for this generation, man.
32:28Cause they're smarter than us, they're faster than us, you know?
32:31And you gotta give them a reason to be there, you know?
32:33Yeah.
32:33Uh, so we did that.
32:35And then the third goal will be to affect the dropout rate, man.
32:38Cause, uh, close to 50% of the poor neighborhoods are dropping out.
32:43You know?
32:43Gotta keep kids in there.
32:44And if the kid likes one class or one teacher, they'll come to school.
32:48That's right.
32:48And we wanna be that class, you know what I'm saying?
32:50Yeah.
32:50What courses do you teach?
32:51Well, let me give you an example.
32:52Give you an example?
32:53Yeah.
32:54Alright, so, um, I picture the teachers these days, right, facing 25 kids.
32:58Right.
32:59Whatever it is.
33:00Uh, wondering why they're in this classroom, because they have a device that gives you any answer in 30 seconds,
33:05right?
33:06But they got all the answers in their hand.
33:07Yep.
33:08But they don't have the questions.
33:09Right?
33:10They got the answers, but they don't have the questions, right?
33:11That's so mad.
33:12Come on.
33:13That's so mad.
33:14So, the Teach Rock thing is ask the right questions, right?
33:16Yeah.
33:17So, they'll ask, like, for example, um, let's pretend the audience is, is, is, is classroom,
33:22right?
33:22Okay.
33:23So, uh, today we're gonna do, uh, the Spanish-American War.
33:26Okay?
33:26Uh, who's interested?
33:28Raise your hand.
33:30Nobody.
33:31Nobody.
33:31Okay.
33:31No.
33:32Alright.
33:33Uh, you know, you know, who knows anything about the Spanish-American War?
33:36Nobody.
33:36No, I ain't.
33:37Alright.
33:37So, who knows about Bad Bunny?
33:42Okay.
33:42Now, where does Bad Bunny come from?
33:44Anybody know?
33:45Puerto Rico.
33:47Correct.
33:47Puerto Rico.
33:48Very good.
33:49Now, where does Puerto Rico come from?
33:52As far as being in an American territory.
33:54The Spanish-American War.
33:57And that's how Teach Rock works.
33:59This is what I'm talking about.

34:36Please welcome the Broadway cast of the Rocky Horror Show.
34:42I would like, if I may, to take you on a strange journey.
34:47It seemed a fairly ordinary night when Brad Majors and his fiancée, Janet Weiss, two young,
34:57ordinary, healthy kids, left Denton that late November evening to visit a Dr. Edward Scott,
35:04ex-tutor, and now friend to both of them.
35:08It's true there were dark storm clouds.
35:12Heavy, black, and pendulous toward which they were driving.
35:16It's true also the spare tire they were carrying was badly in need of some air.
35:21But they, being normal kids and on a night out, well, they were not going to let a storm spoil
35:28the events of their evening.
35:31On a night out.
35:35It was a night out they were to remember.
35:38For a very long time.
35:47Oh, Brad, let's get out of here.
35:50It seems so unhealthy here.
35:54I want to go.
35:56I can't go anywhere until I get to a phone.
35:58Look, I am cold.
36:00I am wet.
36:01And I am just plain scared.
36:04I'm here, Janet.
36:06There's nothing to worry about.
36:15How'd you do, I?
36:17See you've met my faithful handyman.
36:24He's a little brought down because when you knock, he thought you were the candy man.
36:30Lindsay, Ricky.
36:33Don't get strung out by the way that I look.
36:38Don't judge a book by its color bar.
36:41I'm not much of a man by the light of day.
36:46But quite like I'm one hell of a lover.
