00:00Hi, everybody.
00:05As I don't know if any...
00:08So Matt Wright, who was our executive producer and was featured on our show a lot, died the other day.
00:19And he was an amazing guy.
00:25He was funny.
00:27God, he made me laugh.
00:28He would surprise me with things that he did all the time.
00:33He was smart.
00:35He was kind.
00:37He was a part of our show that...
00:41I mean, everyone loved him.
00:43Everyone loved him.
00:45I loved him.
00:46And it's just shocking.
00:48It's shocking.
00:51We were working on a project to do together that we were supposed to start.
00:59We had just been...
01:02Anyway, we're going to miss him.
01:05He is and always will be the glue to our entire family at the Ellen Show.
01:14And he will...
01:18I think this is going to be a really...
01:25I don't know what I'm saying.
01:28Anyway.
01:31And to Justin, his husband, and to his family, it's...
01:41I'm so sorry.
01:43Because we lost a good guy.
01:45He was a good guy.
01:46And he and Twitch were so close.
01:49So now he and Twitch are together.
01:52Dancing and laughing.
01:56He's my producer, Matt Wright.
01:58And I never knew that someone could have such strong opinions about everything.
02:02One of my biggest pet peeves is when I'm at a restaurant and I order something.
02:06Like, you say you've got a couple appetizers.
02:08But I want it coursed out.
02:09Don't bring everything to me at once that annoys me so much.
02:13Like, if you're at sushi and you order a bunch of things and all of a sudden it's like...
02:16They're coming at me and they're putting stuff down.
02:19And if I'm at a two-top table and they're like, boom, boom, boom, I'm at a two-top.
02:24And they'll come over and be like, oh, where should I put this?
02:27You tell me you brought it over.
02:29There's so many things here.
02:30You have strong opinions about our strong opinions with Matt segment.
02:32It's a brand new segment.
02:33I hate it.
02:36Next, we have little Polly right here.
02:38And, oh.
02:40Oh, my.
02:44How do you like the food?
02:48Matt, come out with your pickles.
02:57It's me, Mario.
02:59I'm a gay.
03:01Hey.
03:02Wow.
03:03I had no...
03:08Where did you two meet?
03:10Oh, that's a good story, no?
03:12It was a long time ago.
03:14Love at first sight.
03:15You see a man fill out overalls like that.
03:18Mama mia.
03:26If I have two electricians working on my show who wanted to make a statement about their relationship,
03:31so please welcome Kurt and Bernie.
03:37Wow.
03:37It seems like you guys are really comfortable physically with each other.
03:41Yeah, because we're friends.
03:42That's what friends do.
03:43Am I right?
03:44I mean, we spend so much time together.
03:45We work together.
03:47We have that timeshare together in Fire Island.
03:49We host our weekly RuPaul's Drag Race viewing parties.
03:53We also have a little side business where we sell homemade scented candles.
03:57It's a little passion project of ours.
03:59Yes, we do.
04:15Three, two, one.
