Transcript

[Jimmy Fallon]

From Studio 6B in Rockefeller center in the heart of New York City, it's a Tonight show starring Jimmy Fallon. Tonight, join Jimmy's guest, Sydney Sweeney, Andrew Ranald and Nick Cole. Comedian Liz Glazer. And featuring Phoenix, legendary Ruth Ruth 214 4J. And now, here he is. Give me. Thank you very much. Enjoy yourself. Welcome, everybody. Welcome, welcome, welcome to the Tonight Show. You're here. Thank you for being here. Well, guys, things have taken a shocking turn with one of the hottest couples on Love Island. Of course, I'm talking about Donald Trump and Elon Musk. Yeah. Trump and Elon have been brutally attacking each other all day. Seriously, their relationship went off the cliff faster than a self driving Tesla. And I'm not saying it's bad, but right now Blake Lively and Justin Baldoni are like, guys, take it easy. This is getting out of hand. Today, Trump posted on social media that he asked Elon to leave and Elon went crazy. Just so we're clear, Trump thinks everything Elon did before this was not crazy. Yeah. Trump said he asked Elon to leave and he went crazy. I. I can't believe their relationship fell apart this fast. I mean, a week ago, they were all over each other like Timothee Chalamet and Kylie Jenner at a Knicks game. But Trump didn't stop there. He also said that the easiest way for the country to save money would be to terminate all of Elon Musk's government contracts. Smart. Now the future of space exploration rests on Katy Perry. That's not fair. She's a pop icon. She doesn't need that pressure. That's not fair. No. Trump's comments got Jeff Bezos so excited, his rocket grew six inches. Great.

[Andrew Rannells]

Rocket.

[Jimmy Fallon]

Uh, meanwhile, Elon's like, come on, man, don't do this. I have 100 kids to feed. Come on. I can't. Trump said he's very disappointed in Elon because he has, quote, helped him a lot. Trump was like, just last year, I let him give me $300 billion and he didn't even say thank you. He didn't even say thank you. Well, things didn't stop there. Elon responded to Trump's threats with a pretty wild post. This is real. It said, time to drop the really big bomb. Donald Trump is in the Epstein files. That is the real reason they have not been made public. Have a nice day, djt. Even Kendrick Amara was like, take it easy, guys. Let's get out of here. So to recap, Elon insulted Trump, trashed his bill, and then said he's in the Epstein files. Anyway, now, Elon is now the Democratic frontrunner for 2028, so that's a big deal. Well, guys, switching gears, I saw that for the first time, new episodes of Jeopardy. And Wheel of Fortune will be available on streaming the day after they air. Ooh. Jeopardy. Fans are like, what is streaming? Seriously, what is. What is it? Finally, I read that us hiring has dropped to its slowest pace in two years. If you don't believe me, check out this real footage of a job interview I just saw. Congratulations. You're hired.

[Sydney Sweeney]

[Jimmy Fallon]

We won't let you down. Better now. All right, I'll see you on Monday. Thank you.

[Sydney Sweeney]

Joe, everybody. My name is David Ruffin. I eat em up. No knife with no nap. Welcome back to the show, everybody. We're about to play a brand new game that tests your random knowledge of facts along with your lung capacity. It is time for one breath trivia. One more trivia. Now, before we start, we're gonna need some players. Joining my team is a very talented actress whose new movie echo Valley streams June 13th on Apple TV. Please welcome Sydney Sweeney. Great to see you, bud. Our opponents co star in the new movie I don't understand you'd which is in theaters tomorrow. Give it up for Andrew Rannells and Nick Krogh. Wow. Is it a yes.

[Nick Kroll]

I'm really nervous.

[Jimmy Fallon]

Here's how the game works. We're gonna take turns reading a clue to our teammate and have them guess what it is. Okay, but here's the catch. The clues are very long, and you have to say them in one breath. If you run out of air, your teammate must guess based on what they heard. That's it. The team with the most correct answers wins. Okay, Sydney, I will read the first clue to you.

[Nick Kroll]

Okay.

[Jimmy Fallon]

All right. Well, no. What do you mean?

[Nick Kroll]

I hope I get it.

[Jimmy Fallon]

Yes, you will. Trivia. No, no, it's all right. Just whatever. Just try to get in the. Yeah, I'm gonna try to read. Should I go fast or slow? Quit Yelling at me. I mean, sorry. Am I yelling? Am I yelling? Sorry.

[Nick Kroll]

Just take a deep breath.

[Andrew Rannells]

Thanks. Hey, guys. Good luck.

[Jimmy Fallon]

Oh, that's his catchphrase. Man, I remember that. Ooh. Are you ready for this? This is a TV show that starts with a man who owns everybody a lot of money, and somewhere in between, there's a group of weirdos who dress up in masks that look like they belong to spirit Halloween and a room full of bunk beds that make you feel like you're watching a summer camp for psychos where 400 people hang out, and before you know it, people are licking cookies and life or death. Because it is. I ran out of breath.

[Nick Kroll]

Okay, wait, wait.

[Jimmy Fallon]

Okay.

[Nick Kroll]

A TV show about a man. There's some bunk beds in there.

[Jimmy Fallon]

Sounds right to me.

[Nick Kroll]

Masks.

[Jimmy Fallon]

Yes. Correct. They're wearing masks.

[Andrew Rannells]

Oh.

[Jimmy Fallon]

Was that a show?

[Nick Kroll]

I don't know. I don't have an answer.

[Jimmy Fallon]

You don't have an answer? No. Gosh, no. What was it?

[Nick Kroll]

What was the answer?

[Jimmy Fallon]

The answer was. Well, maybe I'll finish it quickly.

[Andrew Rannells]

Hey, good luck, guys.

[Jimmy Fallon]

No, no, we already. I was supposed to say licking cookies like it's life or death. Cause it is. And then trying to squid game. Yes. I'm sorry, but I almost got there. I ran out of breath before the.

[Liz Glazer]

Life or death was the main part.

[Jimmy Fallon]

I know, but I was like, licking cookies. Licking cookies. Licking cookies. Sorry. All right, I'll stop doing that to you. Nick, Andrew, it is your turn.

[Andrew Rannells]

What's weird is you will call me and leave voice memos of you just saying licking cookies.

[Jimmy Fallon]

Yeah.

[Andrew Rannells]

Licking cookies.

[Jimmy Fallon]

That was the name of our first band. Yeah. Yeah, man. That was a great one. Nick, Andrew, it is your turn. Nick, it's your turn to read. Okay, take a deep breath and good luck.

[Sydney Sweeney]

Give it to me, Nick.

[Andrew Rannells]

Hey, thank you. Good luck.

[Jimmy Fallon]

Good luck.

[Andrew Rannells]

Hey, good luck to you. Good luck to you guys.

[Jimmy Fallon]

Let's take it to the audience. Good luck, everybody.

[Andrew Rannells]

Good luck to you guys on this. Okay, I play the didgeridoo so I can do circular breathing, which is very helpful on this, so.

[Jimmy Fallon]

I didn't know that.

[Andrew Rannells]

Okay, here we go. Gotta laugh out of quest. Okay, here we go. Here we go. Ready?

[Jimmy Fallon]

Yep.

[Andrew Rannells]

This is a song that starts with just one voice and one instrument. It's slow at first, but then the pace builds as the song goes on. It tells an emotionally charged story about leaving behind one life only to discover a brand new life far away from your hometown that the singer feels is more in line with who they are as a person, even though that's impossible tension that I breath.

[Sydney Sweeney]

It's okay.

[Jimmy Fallon]

It's okay.

[Sydney Sweeney]

I'm gonna say Walking in Memphis.

[Andrew Rannells]

Oh. But honestly, if it could have been that Mark Cone.

[Jimmy Fallon]

Mark Larry Classic. Yes.

[Andrew Rannells]

Walking in Memphis, then the joke would have been on you.

[Jimmy Fallon]

Yeah. No, it was not.

[Andrew Rannells]

Can I keep reading it a little more?

[Jimmy Fallon]

Yes. Thank you.

[Andrew Rannells]

Yes. It's about hanging out in Hollywood directly, but just west of it. Let's call it West Hollywood. And by the time the beat drops and the spotlight hits, we're dancing with queens crying in eyeliner. Okay. The person who sings this looks like if Marie Antoinette was in a carnival. Yes.

[Jimmy Fallon]

Marie Antoinette was in a carnival. Oh, my God. Happy Pride. Happy pride, everyone. All right, the score somehow is 1 to 1, which makes. That's incorrect. Right?

[Sydney Sweeney]

I think that's right.

[Jimmy Fallon]

It is, right. That's right. It is one. Oh, that's right. Yeah. So we got that one. Yeah. Thank you. Best of luck.

[Andrew Rannells]

Good luck, guys.

[Jimmy Fallon]

Good luck. Sydney is your turn to read to me. Take a deep breath. We got this, buddy. We got this. Come on. I don't want to chase.

[Andrew Rannells]

Hey, Sydney.

[Nick Kroll]

Yeah? What?

[Sydney Sweeney]

Happy pride.

[Andrew Rannells]

Happy pride.

[Jimmy Fallon]

No, no, you say good luck. Good luck Thursday.

[Nick Kroll]

Okay.

[Jimmy Fallon]

I don't wanna look. Okay. No, don't breathe out. Breathe in. Don't exhale. Don't exhale before you do the thing. No, no. Inhale and then you exhale. Yeah, yeah.

[Nick Kroll]

Okay. You're gonna make me laugh if you don't fuck the whole thing.

[Jimmy Fallon]

Sorry.

[Nick Kroll]

Okay. This is a movie that opens with a man arriving at a place he's never been that still feels like a second chance. Where people talk about missions and resources and security, but everything looks like it was design. Who's on acid? And there's a company pretending to help and a planner pretending not to notice. And the man is given a body that doesn't belong to him and connects his brain into a horse.

[Jimmy Fallon]

Aw. That was really cool. You did a great job. That was a long, great bit. All right, so it's a movie. Yes, it's a movie. It's set in the future, but it's not really the future. It's a different. Everything looks like it's the same, and they've given a different body to him. Even knowing that, I have no idea what this movie I'm going to say. Is it Walking in Memphis for the Mark Clone story?

[Sydney Sweeney]

You guys know characters they know? Like an avatar?

[Jimmy Fallon]

Yes. That's a tricky. That's hard. That's hard to say with thousand breaths. That's too hard. I'm Sorry. You did a great job. I let you down on that one. Andrew Reynolds, you're up. And thanks. Very talented actors, stage and screen. I'm assuming your lung capacity is fantastic. I'm ready for a win here.

[Sydney Sweeney]

That's really sweet of you, and I.

[Jimmy Fallon]

Just want to say good luck. Good luck.

[Andrew Rannells]

Good luck.

[Sydney Sweeney]

This is a food item that has about 500 calories, 26 grams of fat and 20 grams of protein that no one has ever actually named for. Nutritional profile. And it's so literal. A place that's famous for consistency but also happy. Colorful mascot who has a bunch of goofy friends. And this item shirts up in a solar eclipse that does it with impossible people who mark their calendars and its important pilgrimage through its. Messy, saucy, oddly shaped. Couldn't do it.

[Jimmy Fallon]

Okay, okay. Wow.

[Sydney Sweeney]

Messy, saucy, oddly shaped.

[Jimmy Fallon]

Okay.

[Andrew Rannells]

I mean, I'm really focused on. I said it in the middle and it's gonna be wrong, but it feels like cottage cheese to me.

[Jimmy Fallon]

No, no, you gotta. If it was correct, he would have said yes. Wait. Messy. You wanna finish?

[Andrew Rannells]

Can I have a little more?

[Sydney Sweeney]

Sure, sure, sure. Its name very much implies otherwise that it's advertised alongside cartoon buns and glistening sauce and a jingle for a restaurant that will get stuck in your head because it's so catchy. And after you've eaten it, your fingers are sticky and you'll feel happy with this meal.

[Andrew Rannells]

Oh, it's a happy meal. It's gotta be mc.

[Sydney Sweeney]

It's gotta be a.

[Andrew Rannells]

It's gotta be a. It's gotta be Moe's. It's gotta be a mcdlt.

[Jimmy Fallon]

Mcdlt. Oh, the hamburger that lasted.

[Nick Kroll]

I don't think he's ever been to McDonald's.

[Jimmy Fallon]

No, no, no. That was it.

[Sydney Sweeney]

It was the McRib.

[Jimmy Fallon]

The McBean. The hot side. Hot.

[Andrew Rannells]

Right?

[Jimmy Fallon]

And of course, the cool side.

[Andrew Rannells]

I know it as the McRiba. I know it as the McRiba. McIntyre.

[Jimmy Fallon]

Oh, no, they changed it. Guys, that sound means it's time for the final round. This time, both teams will read their clues at the same time. Whichever team shouts out the answer first wins. This round is worth 1,000 points, so it's anyone's game. Sydney, I will read the clue. Nick, Andrew, you decide who reads and who guesses.

[Andrew Rannells]

I have. No, I really don't. We figured this out now. I don't know. You wanna do it?

[Sydney Sweeney]

I'll give to you.

[Andrew Rannells]

Okay, great. I don't understand your theater.

[Jimmy Fallon]

[Nick Kroll]

Grandy's doing amazing. She's very proud of me. She definitely brags a lot, to the point that the local grocery store, and it's a really, really small town, they'll go through the magazines every day to see if there's a little article or a picture of me. And then they'll bring it to her house. And so now the coffee table is just covered in magazine.

[Nick Kroll]

Hi, Grandy.

[Jimmy Fallon]

Hi, Grandy. Oh, my God. So cute that you're keeping all the articles. Save them all. Put them in all one big book. It'll be like 10,000 books.

[Nick Kroll]

She's going to lose her mind.

[Jimmy Fallon]

Come on. Next time I want to meet you. Yeah. Let's talk about your new film, Echo Valley.

[Nick Kroll]

Yes.

[Jimmy Fallon]

It's you, Julianne Moore. This movie has so many twists and turns in it. I don't know how even I know how we set it up, but I Don't know where we can say where it goes, but. Is that what drew you to the movie? It was.

[Nick Kroll]

You know, when I first read the script, I was completely blown away by how Brad the writer, just wove in all of these crazy turns that I didn't even expect. And usually I'm pretty good at figuring it out. And I did not see this coming.

[Jimmy Fallon]

But I love that you're taking these roles, too, because you're just. I never know where you're gonna go when I think you're in a Ziggy Zag.

[Nick Kroll]

Thanks. I don't even know where I'm gonna go sometimes.

[Jimmy Fallon]

Yeah, you do. Yo. Yeah, I'll do a horror movie. Then you bring back the romantic comedy with Glen Powell. I mean, come on. You crushed it. That's what I'm talking about, bud. And now you go this way, and I go. And it's. And, man. You and Julianne Moore acting together.

[Nick Kroll]

She's amazing.

[Jimmy Fallon]

Watching a great tennis match, it's like, this is fantastic. How's Julianne Moore?

[Nick Kroll]

She is the most incredible human.

[Andrew Rannells]

Yeah, she's cool.

[Nick Kroll]

She's so kind and fun and just amazing to work with.

[Jimmy Fallon]

Yeah, but how is it when you get in those fighting, arguing scenes?

[Nick Kroll]

I felt so bad.

[Jimmy Fallon]

You did?

[Nick Kroll]

I did. I am. I'm vicious.

[Jimmy Fallon]

Yeah, but do you get, like. Do you get, like, a character in your trailer and come out of the trailer. Get out of the way. Roll the camera. Hurry up.

[Nick Kroll]

I could not. No. I like, jump in and out. It's kind of psychotic.

[Jimmy Fallon]

Like, you're happy and fun, and then you go.

[Nick Kroll]

And then they say, action. And I'm screaming and crying, and then they call, cut. And I go, what's wrong?

[Jimmy Fallon]

Yeah, what's wrong?

[Andrew Rannells]

No big deal.

[Jimmy Fallon]

I'm just screaming, crying. How do we set up what Echo Valley's about?

[Nick Kroll]

I usually say that Claire, my character, shows up at her mom's doorstep, played by Julianne Moore, covered in blood. That's correct. And what follows is a endless amount of twists and turns. That kind of show. How much and how far a mother would go for her daughter.

[Jimmy Fallon]

That's it. Yeah. Yeah. How much? What would a mom do for her daughter? Sydney Sweeney, everybody. Echo Valley. Echo Valley is streaming on Apple TV June 13th. We'll be right back with Andrew Rannells and Nick Kroll. Stick around, everybod. I tell him everyone in the cake won't go fat. Is everybody in the bag?

[Sydney Sweeney]

Together.

[Jimmy Fallon]

This is very exciting because when last time we were. You were on the show and we were talking.

[Sydney Sweeney]

Yes, well, we were talking about we theoretically all did a Broadway show together. Although you. We did not get to do it together.

[Jimmy Fallon]

No.

[Sydney Sweeney]

But as long as I'm here, I just gotta say so. We did the show. We did the show all in on Broadway.

[Jimmy Fallon]

All in. And Nick was in.

[Sydney Sweeney]

It was Nick and aidy Bryant and Lin Manuel Miranda.

[Jimmy Fallon]

Yeah.

[Sydney Sweeney]

And I did it for a little bit, and then Jimmy came in right after I left. And, you know, I didn't know until just recently that when Jimmy rolled in, he gave everybody theraguns and, like, electrolyte camera, throw coat.

[Jimmy Fallon]

Yeah, I gave a nice, fun basket of like, welcome to it's Broadway.

[Sydney Sweeney]

Jimmy. You give, like. What did I give you?

[Andrew Rannells]

You gave me a pen.

[Sydney Sweeney]

Yeah.

[Jimmy Fallon]

Did you get a pen? Yeah.

[Andrew Rannells]

And it was like. Not even like a fancy, like, mont blanc.

[Jimmy Fallon]

It wasn't.

[Sydney Sweeney]

It was from the New York public library.

[Jimmy Fallon]

He stole a pen from the library.

[Sydney Sweeney]

No, I paid for it.

[Jimmy Fallon]

Yeah. I will say you were great to me because you were texting before the show. Because I was so nervous about doing the show.

[Sydney Sweeney]

But it was fun, right?

[Jimmy Fallon]

I had the greatest time. Nick carried me through the whole play.

[Andrew Rannells]

It was a lift for me.

[Jimmy Fallon]

No, no, no, no. You're supposed to say, no.

[Andrew Rannells]

I had the best time with both of you guys. You were both amazing to work right next to. Like, it is right now. The feeling that I have right now.

[Sydney Sweeney]

You don't have to choose.

[Andrew Rannells]

Good.

[Sydney Sweeney]

You don't have to choose. But if you have to choose.

[Jimmy Fallon]

Sydney Sweeney. Sydney Sweeney. All right. I'm good at Sydney Sweeney. All right.

[Sydney Sweeney]

Okay, Okay.

[Jimmy Fallon]

I had the greatest time. I'm like, okay, we're just gonna go and read. And we sit there. Cause that's what I was told. This play is called all in. It's written by Simon Rich. Alex Timber's directing. You go, great. I'm on Broadway. I was so excited, nervous. I go in. No one's just reading. People are actually acting. People are off book. And people are like, you were fantastic in this play. You made me cry multiple nights on stage and off. Yeah. More off stage than on stage.

[Andrew Rannells]

Good luck tonight, Ms. Mr. Ballad.

[Jimmy Fallon]

And slammed the door. Yeah. I was like, oh, my gosh.

[Andrew Rannells]

Yeah. Wearing a Bonnet.

[Jimmy Fallon]

But it Was. I milking it too much by the end?

[Andrew Rannells]

No, I thought you were great. I mean, that's the beauty of this show is everybody had their individual take on each character and performance. And it was really amazing to see both of you guys come in and kill in these different ways. And I loved it.

[Jimmy Fallon]

By the end of the week, I lost my voice. I was going for it. I don't know what I was doing. I was going.

[Sydney Sweeney]

Talking like this.

[Andrew Rannells]

I got the pirate thing off. You said oi. You added the oi to the.

[Jimmy Fallon]

Did I add an oi? Yeah. Yeah. And then I messed up. If you mess up a line. I got so nervous about messing up a word.

[Sydney Sweeney]

I'm so glad you guys had fun together.

[Jimmy Fallon]

Hi, Andrew. Hey. Hey, Andrew. You go here, too? I had fun, too.

[Sydney Sweeney]

I go here.

[Jimmy Fallon]

I go here, too, so.

[Sydney Sweeney]

Well, I don't know if you've ever been to Rome with Nick or Leo.

[Jimmy Fallon]

Let's talk about this. This is your new movie. It's called I don't understand. You'd have to have that. And, man, it's. It's a romantic comedy, and it turns into a bit of kind of a horror movie.

[Andrew Rannells]

Yes.

[Sydney Sweeney]

Well, yeah, depending on your perspective, I guess. We do maybe accidentally kill. Murder.

[Andrew Rannells]

Yeah. I think it's.

[Jimmy Fallon]

I would say that's horror. Yeah. Yeah.

[Andrew Rannells]

I think we could say, like, it's like. It feels like you're watching this couple who are, like, going through this adoption process. They go to save their marriage in Italy. And then I think you can say this on the Tonight show now. Goes down.

[Jimmy Fallon]

Yeah. All right. That's right.

[Sydney Sweeney]

You can say that.

[Andrew Rannells]

And we'll find out. We'll talk to.

[Jimmy Fallon]

I think you can say it. Yeah. Everyone here says that you can say that. Oh, great. But, yeah, it actually does go down. And then it tests the relationship, and it. You don't know what's going down. But you guys have known each other for a while. Cause you have a great rapport. We.

[Sydney Sweeney]

Well, that's. Thank you.

[Jimmy Fallon]

Great rhythm.

[Liz Glazer]

We.

[Sydney Sweeney]

Yeah, we had known each other for a while, but this was our first time working, I guess I suppose that closely with each other. And we were working in Rome, which was so fun. And when we started, the movie was like, you know, we were filming all the really, like, pretty stuff, like, Nick and I walking by the Trevi Fountain. And Nick and I like, eating gelato at, like, the Spanish Steps. And then we started, you know, killing people and, like, night shoots and covered in fake blood. And we both really hit our pasta threshold. At the same moment, I just think.

[Andrew Rannells]

Like, Italy, like, it's fine. It's like, what are you talking about? It's like, it's fine. Like, everyone's like, oh, you gotta go to Italy and get the food. Oh, my God. Italian food is so good. You know who else makes good Italian food?

[Sydney Sweeney]

Olive Garden.

[Andrew Rannells]

Everybody. It's the easiest food to make. Delicious.

[Jimmy Fallon]

Oh, my. Absolutely. Now it is hard. It's very difficult. Difficult.

[Andrew Rannells]

Oh, the pasta. Fresh tomatoes.

[Jimmy Fallon]

Can you believe it?

[Andrew Rannells]

You can only eat so many caprese salads in a week before you lose your mind.

[Sydney Sweeney]

And there's very few vegetables. They don't. It's like, nothing is fresh. Everything is fried. Like, we all could have gotten scurvy by the end of it.

[Jimmy Fallon]

Oh, my God. You know, it's fine.

[Andrew Rannells]

It's fine. It's just like you.

[Jimmy Fallon]

It is more than fine. It's the most beautiful.

[Andrew Rannells]

No, I'm telling you, Italy is fine. There's like, you can't.

[Jimmy Fallon]

No one's arguing.

[Andrew Rannells]

I'll just say, I. Like, we were. We had a night shoot, and the. The Italian crew could vote as to whether you would do overtime or not. So I get covered in mud. Just absolutely. Rain, mud, everything. And they're like, you do it one more time tonight and we're done with all that. Or we come back tomorrow. We just have to ask the crew if they will work overtime. The crew then gets together, spends a half hour voting about whether they're going to do overtime, and they're like, nah, basta. So they decide, no overtime. So then I come back the next day and have to redo the entire thing. And I'm like, there's a reason the Roman Empire fell.

[Jimmy Fallon]

Oh, no. Come on now. That is unbelievable.

[Sydney Sweeney]

They have a very solid work life balance. Yeah, I can respect that. They don't like to work.

[Jimmy Fallon]

Yeah.

[Sydney Sweeney]

And that's fine. It's totally fine.

[Jimmy Fallon]

It is gorgeous.

[Sydney Sweeney]

We thought we would learn some Italian while we were there. And the only thing I think we both learned that we would hear the crew say over and over while we were working is basta. Basta. Which basically means, like, hurry the up.

[Jimmy Fallon]

Yeah, yeah, okay.

[Andrew Rannells]

Yeah, yeah, we can say that.

[Jimmy Fallon]

We can say that.

[Andrew Rannells]

Yeah, we can say that. I talked to the network. Everybody said we can.

[Jimmy Fallon]

We can say that.

[Andrew Rannells]

We can say that.

[Jimmy Fallon]

We can say that.

[Sydney Sweeney]

They said, it's fine.

[Jimmy Fallon]

All right.

[Andrew Rannells]

We just shoot. I'm just going to plow through. I'm going to keep doing. I'm going to keep doing anecdotes, give it up.

[Jimmy Fallon]

To lose Andrew Randalls. And of course, the birthday boy, Nick Platter. The Movie island and the 70s and theaters tomorrow. We'll be right back with more tonight, everybody. Come on. Our next guest has a new comedy special, do youo Know Who I'm Not? Which premieres today on YouTube. Making Her Tonight show debut. Please welcome the very funny Liz Glazer. Hi.

[Liz Glazer]

I am so excited to be here. I am. I am for real, because I was. I wasn't always a comedian. I used to be Alice from the Brady Bunch. I like that you get that. Can I tell you something? So I recently did stand up at a menopause conference. That's real. I did stand up at a menopause conference, and I told the crowd there that I look like Alice from the Brady Bunch. Let me tell you something. I was not prepared for the thunderous reception because I think for that crowd, I say I look like Alice. And what goes through their minds is, that's who I thought you look like. And they laugh. But meanwhile, younger audience members will literally come up to me after shows, and they're like, were you really Alice from the Brady Bunch? I'm like, yeah, I'm 99 years old. But I wasn't always a comedian for real. I used to be a law professor, which is generally how people become comedians. It's the classic route. If you want to be a comedian, this is what you do. You go to law school for three years, practice for two years, teach for nine years, get tenure, quit Tonight Show. No. There's actually a lot of menopause conferences in between. But that's really my background. So sometimes people ask me, they're like, but, Liz, why did you even go to law school to begin with? And the answer is, because my parents made me. Because my parents would say to me when I was younger, they were like, nobody can take your education away from you. I don't know if you're familiar with this fear tactic of immigrant parents, but that's what I would hear all the time. Nobody can take your education away from you. I'm like, does anyone want it? So now I'm 45 and I'm gay. Oh, I. I am. I feel like I don't have to come out. I don't have to tell you I'm gay. At some point, I got that gay that I don't have to come out. Cause when I come out, everyone's like, yeah, we're aware that you're gay. The gay is silent for you. Just implied. But now I'm gay. And Nobody cares. It's different, because now everybody's gay. And that's a good thing. But it's also annoying because I used to say I was gay on stage. Everybody would clap. I felt like, Ellen, it was nice. But now, nothing. Because everybody's gay. You know, the value of the gay dollar is down because everybody's gay. And by the way, I know whenever I say everybody's gay that I sound at the same time like I'm an old lesbian and a homophobe. And also, whenever I say everybody's gay, there's always one guy who's like, I'm not gay. I'm like, you're gay. But, like, I came out to my parents when I was 21, and 24 years ago, when I came out to them, they were upset. Now my parents are gay. No, they're not. But I love them and accept them all the same. And I'm pretty sure it's a phase. They're gonna grow out of it. But, I mean, I get it. I'm a parent. I recently had a baby. She's gay, and I'm married. My wife is a lesbian, too. I'm pretty sure. I'm pretty sure Karen's gay. Oh, my wife's name is Karen, which is not great. It's not the time to be a Karen in 2025 to be named Karen. It's terrible. And by the way, the people who hate the Karen thing the most are Karens, but they can't say anything because if they did, we'd be like, that is such a Karen thing to say. But with two women, there's no rule who takes whose name when you get married. And my name is Liz Glazer. So now my wife goes by Liz. But, yeah, Karen and I. I mean, Liz and I, we. We have a baby. Okay. And people want to know how we had her, right? Because we're two women. And the answer is one night, we did it without protection. No, we did ivf, which means that we used my wife's embryo and my nothing. Because I have a very low sperm count. It hovers right around zero. So now she's a little bit older. She's in daycare. Okay? And she's been in daycare for a very long time. She came out of the womb screaming. And Karen and I looked at each other. We're like, we're letting the professionals raise her, right? No, honestly, at three months old, she looked up at me. She's like, I think there's somebody who knows how to raise me more effectively. Than whatever you're doing. And I was like, you're right. There are, there are experts, professionals, the people who teach at daycare, they're amazing. They don't even call it daycare. They call it baby school. And so every day when I drop her off, I remind her, nobody can take your education away from you. Thank you so much. I'm Liz Glazer.

[Jimmy Fallon]

That is how you do it. That's fantastic. Liz Glazer, come on. Standing. Oh, not bad. That's fantastic. That was great. Her comedy special, do you know who I'm not? Is available on YouTube.
