[Jimmy Fallon]

[Announcer]

I love you. Ah. Thank you very much. Enjoy yourself.

[Jimmy Fallon]

Enjoy yourself.

[Announcer]

Welcome, everybody. Welcome, welcome, welcome, welcome to the Tonight Show. You're here.

[Emily Blunt]

Thank you.

[Announcer]

You made it. Thank you for watching.

[Jimmy Fallon]

Let's get to some news, guys. Today in Washington, King Charles made a historic address to a joint session of Congress. That was the first time a king addressed Congress since President Trump spoke at the State of the UN.

[Neal Sampson]

Yeah.

[Jimmy Fallon]

This afternoon, King Charles delivered an address to a joint session of Congress, and lawmakers had a lot to say about it. For instance, first up, Senator Angus King said, wow, I can't believe I got to hear a speech from an actual. Well, my last name. And Congressman Richard Neal said, I didn't know the protocol on whether I should bow or. Well, my last name. And Congresswoman Virginia Foxx said, I was thrilling to see Charles in person. That man is a total. Well, my last. Then Congressman Dan Goldman said, I was sad he didn't wear his crown. Man, I wanted to see that dude dripping in, well, my last name.

[Francesco de Carlo]

And

[Jimmy Fallon]

then Congressman John Moulinar said, yeah, that guy must have so much money without a dude. He's a multi. Well, my last name. Wow, wow, wow, whoa, whoa, wow. Then Congressman Troy Balderson said, I like King Charles, but I also like William. You know, his. Well, my last name. Then Senator Ted Budd said, when I first saw the freaking king of England walk in, I thought maybe I smoked too much. Well, my last name. And Congressman Dusty Johnson said, I was so excited, I could feel it in my. Well, my full. My full name. And finally, King Charles said it was an honor to speak before Congress. And, well, wait, what the hell is my last name? Nobody knows. Nobody. Meanwhile, this morning, Trump delivered a speech on the South Lawn where he said that his mother had a crush on Charles because he was so cute. Charles was like, aw. And my mother also said things about you. You guys see this? The State Department is introducing new passports with Trump's face on them to celebrate America's 250th anniversary. Take a look. It's hard to tell who looks more upset about Trump being on that passport, you or him. And finally, I read that Disneyland will now use facial recognition technology to reduce fraud. Meanwhile, Busch Gardens is still letting guests pay for tickets using loose cigarettes.

[Announcer]

We have a great show Give it up for the roost, everybody.

[Musician from The Roots]

Y' all gotta be emerging courses. Don't to get the fake tissue. Don't get nauseous, infected, or contaminated. Tell em stereo gamma. Com radioactivated.

[Announcer]

Whoa. What a show we have for you tonight.

[Jimmy Fallon]

She stars in the highly anticipated new movie the Devil wears Prada 2, which hits theaters Friday.

[Announcer]

Emily Blunt is here tonight.

[Jimmy Fallon]

The best the life Love, Emily Blunt. He stars in Netflix's number one comedy series, Running Point. Season two is out now.

[Announcer]

Chet Hanks is joining us, and we got great stuff. Stand up from Francesco de Carlo.

[Jimmy Fallon]

Very funny. Did you guys see this? The Philadelphia Museum of Art recently moved the famous Rocky statue from its spot outside the building to inside. Oh, yeah. Well, we wanted to find out how people felt about this, but instead of sending a reporter out to get the word on the streets, we're going to keep it right here in the studio. It's time for word on the seats. Let's go now to our reporter Chip Kane, who I believe is on the east side of the audience. Chip.

[Chip Kane]

Hi, Jimmy. I'm reporting live from the east side of the audience, where people are absolutely buzzing over this news. Statue inside, statue outside. Everyone's got an opinion. In fact, I was just talking with audience member Glenn Carroll here, who said he's happy the statue is moving inside because it was becoming a bit of a distraction for him. He was so obsessed with it, he'd sometimes stare at it for days on end, living on a diet of Red Bull and David bars. In fact, he became so obsessed, he missed his daughter's last two birthdays.

[Jimmy Fallon]

Ooh.

[Chip Kane]

It's a tough issue over here, Jimmy, but people are making their choices.

[Jimmy Fallon]

Well, thank you very much, Chip. For a different perspective, I with Rose Henley, who's reporting from the back of the audience. Rose.

[Rose Henley]

Well, Jimmy, up here, the mood is very grim. This man just told me that it's a shame to hide such a beautiful statue away from the public, as he is quite the lover of statues. And you went on to clarify that when you say a lover of statues, you mean that literally. You're married to a statue. Let's see the picture. Wow. It's an audience divided. Jimmy, back to you.

[Jimmy Fallon]

Well, we wanted to dive even deeper into the minds of our audience, so we sent our reporter Neal Sampson undercover to live amongst them and get their unfiltered and raw opinions. So let's reveal that undercover reporter now.

[Neal Sampson]

Hi, Jimmy.

[Jimmy Fallon]

Wow.

[Neal Sampson]

For the last 30 minutes or so, I have lived undercover as a plainclothes audience member, learning their ways, observing and gaining their trust. But my journey didn't start here. I've been training for this moment for years. This is the Audience Institute of America. In spring 2024, I enrolled here at the country's leading audience training facility. And after nearly two years of intensive applause training and developing a foolproof backstory, all that was left was to live among the audience and get their unfiltered opinions.

[Jimmy Fallon]

You've got it.

[Neal Sampson]

And now to put my audience training to the test. I'm excited for the show, guys.

[Chet Hanks]

Yeah.

[Neal Sampson]

Yeah.

[Jimmy Fallon]

I drove all the way here from

[Neal Sampson]

Connecticut, where I live with my wife Jessica, and my dog, Taffy.

[Jimmy Fallon]

Yeah.

[Chet Hanks]

Nice.

[Neal Sampson]

Yeah, thanks. Hey, by the way, what do you think of this whole Rocky statue situation?

[Chet Hanks]

Not familiar with it.

[Neal Sampson]

You know, in Philadelphia, they have that Rocky statue. Well, they're moving it from outside the museum to inside.

[Jimmy Fallon]

What do you think about that?

[Emily Blunt]

I like it outside.

[Chet Hanks]

Yeah?

[Neal Sampson]

Like it outside. You like it outside?

[Jimmy Fallon]

Yeah.

[Neal Sampson]

Me too. Well, there you have it, Jimmy. When the audience thought they were talking to one of their own, the truth came out. They like the statue outside.

[Jimmy Fallon]

Thank you once again for your great work, Neil. Daring stuff.

[Announcer]

[Announcer]

Everyone keeps telling me that they won't.

[Emily Blunt]

Yeah, but mine are kind of still sweet. They're kind of still, too.

[Jimmy Fallon]

Me too. I go, okay, maybe your kids don't like you, but my kids like me. Yeah, but they have. I love their interest in new things and fun.

[Emily Blunt]

What are Yours into.

[Jimmy Fallon]

My younger one's into acting and she's into fashion.

[Emily Blunt]

Yeah, mine are really into fashion.

[Jimmy Fallon]

Oh, yeah.

[Emily Blunt]

And it's.

[Jimmy Fallon]

I went to the mall the other day.

[Emily Blunt]

You did?

[Francesco de Carlo]

Yeah.

[Jimmy Fallon]

I forgot their word malls, and I didn't think they still existed.

[Emily Blunt]

But you like going to Williams Sonoma.

[Jimmy Fallon]

I do, by the way. Yeah. That's my Disneyland. I love that place.

[Emily Blunt]

When you go in wanting, like, some cups, do you come out with everything?

[Jimmy Fallon]

My wife is like, everything. Dude, do we need a pasta maker? I go, I don't know. Do we need a pasta? How much pasta do we eat?

[Emily Blunt]

What was the slushie thing? You want me to get the ninja slushie, guys? The ninja slushie?

[Jimmy Fallon]

Yes. Have you anyone has it?

[Announcer]

It's the best thing.

[Jimmy Fallon]

I absolutely wouldn't recommend it unless I loved it. I think it's fantastic. And then you were trying to get me an ice cream maker that takes two days to make ice cream.

[Emily Blunt]

No, I mean, I feel like I really was like, oh, my God, you gotta get this thing. And by the end of pitching it, I was like, don't get it.

[Jimmy Fallon]

Yeah.

[Emily Blunt]

Fair pain.

[Jimmy Fallon]

Yeah, I love it. What fashion are the kids into?

[Emily Blunt]

I mean, everything, but they want zero advice from me. I was like, guys, I'm in a pretty big fashion movie.

[Jimmy Fallon]

But they were like, kind of a big deal.

[Emily Blunt]

Yeah. It's like a no notes, thanks situation.

[Jimmy Fallon]

Yeah. I think. Are they hoodies right now and all that stuff?

[Emily Blunt]

Yeah. My older one is more like Avril Lavigne.

[Jimmy Fallon]

Yeah.

[Emily Blunt]

And my little one's like Jennifer Lopez.

[Jimmy Fallon]

Yeah. I love that. They should get your advice. I mean, look at you right here. You and mom and dad. This is the headline. Emily Blunt and John Krasinski are such a vibe at the 2026 Golden Globes. Such a vibe.

[Emily Blunt]

Okay. Turtleneck.

[Announcer]

Okay.

[Jimmy Fallon]

Turtleneck.

[Emily Blunt]

Okay. So I'll be honest. I mean, do you rock a turtleneck?

[Jimmy Fallon]

I don't. I would love to, maybe.

[Emily Blunt]

So I have a full organ rejection to turtlenecks usually. But when John pitched me this outfit and he was like, and it's a turtleneck, I had to compose my face into, like, impassive. Oh, that sounds great. You know, but then when I thought he looked like Michael Caine, he looked so cool.

[Jimmy Fallon]

He does look like young Michael Caine.

[Emily Blunt]

So cool.

[Jimmy Fallon]

He does look cool.

[Emily Blunt]

60s vibe.

[Jimmy Fallon]

Yeah.

[Emily Blunt]

But normally a man in a turtleneck gives me the ick.

[Jimmy Fallon]

Yeah, that's.

[Emily Blunt]

Sorry. To any turtleneck wearers.

[Jimmy Fallon]

No, no one's wearing a turtleneck here. No, no, no. What else are your ick for men's fashion.

[Emily Blunt]

I really don't like one of those. I don't mind, like, a James Dean leather jacket, but if we're looking at, like a dad leather jacket, you know, where it's like a little bomber jacket and it's very shiny, a little fitted,

[Jimmy Fallon]

little tight and cropped and no collar.

[Emily Blunt]

No collar, exactly.

[Jimmy Fallon]

I don't do that either. I can't do it. I tried.

[Emily Blunt]

What are your ex for?

[Jimmy Fallon]

I tried to wear one of those jackets. I just couldn't pull it off. It was so embarrassing. I've tried so many. I've had so many bad decisions. Fashion decisions. Terrible. I remember I went to some fashion awards here in New York. And, you know, I was kind of. My pants were kind of high water pants.

[Emily Blunt]

What's that?

[Jimmy Fallon]

Well, high water is like when you have, like, you know, they're up a little high. So I was like, okay.

[Emily Blunt]

Little swingers.

[Jimmy Fallon]

Ankle swingers.

[Emily Blunt]

Ankle swingers.

[Jimmy Fallon]

Yes, of course that's what it meant. And so never heard. Okay, yes.

[Emily Blunt]

No. By the way, they all know ankle swingers.

[Musician from The Roots]

I love.

[Emily Blunt]

That I coined. That is not a phrase. I just.

[Jimmy Fallon]

No, but they've got an applause for. Yeah, they love. Very nice. Ankle swingers.

[Emily Blunt]

Ankle swingers. And a turtleneck. That would be a vibe.

[Jimmy Fallon]

No, but. So I thought I would be advanced. I thought I was like a fashion designer. So I go, hey, when you're doing my. When I tailor my suit and my cuffs, maybe make my cuff, like, up to here.

[Emily Blunt]

Why?

[Jimmy Fallon]

Why?

[Emily Blunt]

Why did you.

[Jimmy Fallon]

Why would I do that? Because I thought I was a fashion designer. And I was like, people are going to flip. I am going to be in Cosmopolitan magazine.

[Announcer]

Yeah.

[Emily Blunt]

And what happened?

[Jimmy Fallon]

Everyone made fun of me. I'm gonna be searching for this the

[Emily Blunt]

moment I leave your shirt.

[Jimmy Fallon]

Not only that, but I had a light pink shirt.

[Emily Blunt]

Okay.

[Jimmy Fallon]

And I had light pink socks. And people thought I was wearing white socks.

[Emily Blunt]

Yeah.

[Jimmy Fallon]

Like tube socks.

[Emily Blunt]

But you can't wear pink socks in high water.

[Jimmy Fallon]

I know that I was never invited back to this award show. That was the end of that. But I have luckily been around. And disaster. I always get in trouble and all stuff. Did I ever tell you that I thought I was going to be friends with Anna Wintour?

[Emily Blunt]

What happened? Why didn't she want to be friends with you?

[Jimmy Fallon]

No, she does. We are friends. Ish. But I wanted to be actually friends.

[Emily Blunt]

Ish.

[Jimmy Fallon]

Buds. I want to be like buds. Like, I go, hey, I see her all the time at Broadway shows. And I go, me and Anna Wintour, we could be friends.

[Emily Blunt]

She's really fun.

[Francesco de Carlo]

I know.

[Jimmy Fallon]

So weirdly enough, I got her my email. I go, send me an email. I'll go to a show with you, we'll hang out. She goes, great. So that week on Saturday morning, I get an email from Anna Wintour. Jimmy, I'd love your advice. So I go, what? So I wake up and I'm reading this email and. And my wife's like, who's it from? I go, anna Wintour wants my advice. My wife's like, why would she want your advice? Cause we're friends and this is what friends do. I don't even know what it's like.

[Emily Blunt]

Is it about fashion?

[Jimmy Fallon]

I think so. So I started working on my email back and I spent like an hour. I just hopped out of bed and I would go, I was pacing. I worked on this email.

[Emily Blunt]

I didn't know what she wanted advice on.

[Jimmy Fallon]

I used the word mystique at one point and it was terrible. And I go, okay, I feel this is it.

[Emily Blunt]

More mystique.

[Jimmy Fallon]

And I sent it and I go, whoosh. And as soon as I sent it, I saw there was an email in my inbox from Anna. She goes, disregard that. I sent it to the wrong person. It's been like two hours. It's been two hours on a response.

[Emily Blunt]

I use words like mystique.

[Announcer]

Mystique.

[Jimmy Fallon]

What am I talking about? Oh, God, of course she doesn't want my advice.

[Emily Blunt]

That is a fantastic story.

[Jimmy Fallon]

But I do love her and she's so fun. Every time I see her, she's like, I love that email. What is going on with Quiet Place 3? Can we give any scoop on that? Cause I know John's writing it and

[Emily Blunt]

he starts shooting really soon. Yeah, he's been writing it. He's one of these weird sort of Beautiful Mind people. He goes up, he has post its everywhere and he's like that for like months.

[Jimmy Fallon]

I love that.

[Emily Blunt]

Organizing it.

[Jimmy Fallon]

He does great stuff to the point

[Emily Blunt]

where I'm like, please write this movie.

[Jimmy Fallon]

Stop.

[Emily Blunt]

Post it in house.

[Jimmy Fallon]

Does he ask for advice and stuff? Do you run scenes with him?

[Emily Blunt]

Sometimes I. No.

[Jimmy Fallon]

Okay.

[Emily Blunt]

But sometimes he'll pitch me an idea, but I'm not very good out of context. I'd rather he write it and then I'll read the whole thing.

[Jimmy Fallon]

Yeah.

[Emily Blunt]

And then he's in traction with nerves as everyone starts to read it. But then, I mean, he's brilliant.

[Jimmy Fallon]

That's the poor guy. He is. He's brilliant.

[Chet Hanks]

Yeah.

[Emily Blunt]

He's a freak.

[Jimmy Fallon]

Yeah. Do you ask him like, hey, maybe write this scene in Quiet Place 3. For me. Just make a little, like, let's set it on a beach to see.

[Emily Blunt]

I wish. I mean, the only thing I'm sort of praying for is maybe slightly less action. There's a lot of running in Quiet place one and two.

[Jimmy Fallon]

You can't have less action.

[Francesco de Carlo]

No.

[Emily Blunt]

And I had, like, one bad knee before I started the franchise, and now I have two bad knees because of that. After Tom was like, hey, could you do like a fake stumble? And I did and botched the other one up. So it's just. So I'm sort of hoping to kind of sit quietly in Quiet Place 3.

[Chip Kane]

Yes.

[Jimmy Fallon]

Sit quietly. That could be the slogan. Absolutely. Yeah. Yeah, I love that. Let's talk about Devil Wears Prada, too. Everyone's excited about this book.

[Announcer]

It's back. We've been waiting for this movie for

[Jimmy Fallon]

two decades, and it's finally almost here. This is your fourth time working with Meryl Streep.

[Emily Blunt]

I know.

[Jimmy Fallon]

Who is just the coolest.

[Emily Blunt]

I can't figure out who's stalking who in these movies, but she is the coolest person ever. Do you know she's good at, like, everything?

[Jimmy Fallon]

Yeah, she is. Right?

[Emily Blunt]

Of course. She's brilliant at acting, but she's an amazing drawer.

[Jimmy Fallon]

Yes.

[Emily Blunt]

Is that a word?

[Jimmy Fallon]

A drawer?

[Emily Blunt]

I just suddenly. Sure, let's say artist. She's an amazing artist. She knits brilliantly and she does the most astonishing pratfall, which I saw her do during Mary Poppins. She went from completely upright like that on the floor.

[Francesco de Carlo]

It's funny.

[Jimmy Fallon]

Yeah, she's great.

[Emily Blunt]

And was fine, like, unscathed. She was like, watch this and did it.

[Jimmy Fallon]

She knows how to do everything.

[Emily Blunt]

Yeah, she's real.

[Jimmy Fallon]

Great cast. I love everybody in this movie. I can't wait for you guys to see it. How do we set up where the sequel picks up?

[Emily Blunt]

So basically, we're on rather unstable ground as the digital overlords rule the fashion industry now.

[Jimmy Fallon]

Yes.

[Emily Blunt]

And so you see Miranda in that sort of different dynamic. And my character Emily now has a top executive role at a big high end brand.

[Jimmy Fallon]

Yes.

[Emily Blunt]

So she's wielding power and loving it.

[Jimmy Fallon]

Yes. Perfect. And it's super funny, by the way. If you guys need a good laugh, go check this movie out. It's so great.

[Jimmy Fallon]

Our next guest is a talented actor starring in Netflix's number one comedy series, Running Point. Season two is out now. Please welcome Chet Hanks. Chet Hanks, you are crushing it right now. By the way, your band, Something out west, performed at Stagecoach this past weekend. We did?

[Emily Blunt]

We did.

[Jimmy Fallon]

Congratulations, bud.

[Announcer]

Thank you.

[Jimmy Fallon]

And you're in the number one show on Netflix. Come on.

[Chet Hanks]

Thank you.

[Musician from The Roots]

Thank you.

[Jimmy Fallon]

Last time you were on the show, we were talking about your band, Something out west, and you were like, yeah, I'm working on it. I'm writing. We're working on a new song. And now you're performing at Stagecoach, which is Coachella, basically.

[Chet Hanks]

It was a big deal. It was a big deal. It's only our second show. It was only our second performance ever. So I'm, like, trying to play catch up. I was nervous, you know what I mean? Most bands perform for years before they get to a stage like that.

[Jimmy Fallon]

Of course. Did you know what you're gonna open with and close it with and, like, what are you gonna say to the crowd or anything?

[Chet Hanks]

Yeah, that's the whole thing. It's like, you can know your set list, but when it's like, what am I gonna say? You know what I mean? You can't really, like, pre plan that.

[Jimmy Fallon]

No. You don't have a standup act.

[Chet Hanks]

Exactly. So you just kinda gotta like, take it as it comes, I guess. But the show went really well.

[Jimmy Fallon]

You did well.

[Chet Hanks]

Yeah.

[Jimmy Fallon]

Yeah. Congrats. I saw that. For your video for you Better Run. You kind of channeled your dad, and here's you as far as far as Gump. You better run. Yeah, it makes sense. Yeah. Who thought of the idea?

[Chet Hanks]

It was actually our drummer. He was like, you Know what'd be funny? Because, like, since the song is, like, called you Better Run, you know, and, like, in Forrest Gump, he runs.

[Jimmy Fallon]

Yeah. Thank you. If you guys. No spoilers. No spoilers. Yeah, yeah, yeah.

[Chet Hanks]

If you guys did a parody of Forrest Gump, and I was like, that's a terrible idea. And then I thought about it for, like, five minutes, and I was like, that's actually hilarious.

[Jimmy Fallon]

It's, like, a genius idea. And your, Your dad actually did a cameo in the video, by the way. There he is right there next to you.

[Chet Hanks]

Go check that out, you guys. On YouTube.

[Jimmy Fallon]

Yeah, yeah, please. You better Run is the name of the song. What did he say when you asked him to do it immediately? Yes. Or was he like, what other ideas you got?

[Chet Hanks]

He was like, I'll do it, but it's gonna cost you Father's Day.

[Jimmy Fallon]

I want a big gift.

[Chet Hanks]

I'll put you in touch with my agent.

[Jimmy Fallon]

Yeah, exactly. Yeah. I know you moved to Nashville to pursue country music. Yes. And you were telling me this, but you didn't tell me that you were gonna move to an RV park.

[Announcer]

Park.

[Chet Hanks]

Well, I was like, I, I, I, I don't, like, like, I didn't want to get an apartment. Right. Because I literally just got a condo in la and I furnished it. You know, it was like my first, like, property, like, buying it.

[Jimmy Fallon]

That's.

[Chet Hanks]

Yeah.

[Jimmy Fallon]

You gotta appreciate that.

[Chet Hanks]

I didn't want to do that again, and I didn't want to furnish it, so I was, like, staying in Airbnbs and hotels, and that gets really old because I just like having my own space.

[Jimmy Fallon]

Yeah.

[Chet Hanks]

So I, like, went on this road trip, like, because I was just bored by myself. Want to do a little getaway? And I drove up to the Bay Area in Carmel, if, you know, Carmel in California. It's really beautiful, really gorgeous. And I stayed in an Airstream trailer.

[Jimmy Fallon]

Yes.

[Francesco de Carlo]

The best.

[Chet Hanks]

And I really loved it. And I was like, man, I want one of these. I want to get one of these. So I did. I got a trailer. It's not an Airstream. I'm not there yet.

[Francesco de Carlo]

It's just a.

[Chet Hanks]

But I'm really happy with it. Yeah. I mean, Airstreams are.

[Jimmy Fallon]

It's, like, the greatest.

[Chet Hanks]

They are. They're, they're, they're serious.

[Jimmy Fallon]

Yes. But just a regular rv.

[Chet Hanks]

It's a Jayco. It's a Jayco Eagle. If you know anything about RVs, Jayco is really.

[Jimmy Fallon]

Oh, really?

[Chet Hanks]

Yeah.

[Jimmy Fallon]

Do you have a kitchen and all that stuff and everything you need?

[Chet Hanks]

I got my kitchen I got, you know, a walk in shower. That's a big deal with trailers if it's a walk in shower. Because sometimes it's like they combine the toilet and the shower. It's called a wet bath.

[Jimmy Fallon]

Wow. One stop shopping. Yeah. So you have this RV and are you friends with your neighbors? Are you like RV living right now?

[Chet Hanks]

I'm probably like the youngest person in the trailer park by like, probably by like 30 or 40 years.

[Jimmy Fallon]

Yes.

[Chet Hanks]

It's not what you think, you know. No, you think, oh, you're gonna live in a trailer park. It might be a little sketchy, might be a little dangerous. It's all just like retirees, you know, and friendly people.

[Jimmy Fallon]

Do you have great people, campfires and activities and stuff?

[Chet Hanks]

I do have a campfire. Outside of it. I have a fire pit and I have used it.

[Jimmy Fallon]

Yeah.

[Chet Hanks]

Yeah. But most of the time I just do exactly what I do at home, which is just stay inside and lay in bed and watch Netflix and things like that.

[Jimmy Fallon]

Speaking of Netflix, that's a good transition. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Congratulations. Running point number one. Not too shabby, bud.

[Francesco de Carlo]

Thank you.

[Announcer]

Can't do better than number one, buddy.

[Jimmy Fallon]

Thank you. Thank you. Did you guys see it?

[Chet Hanks]

Have you guys seen it?

[Jimmy Fallon]

You're hilarious in it. Our pal Kate Hudson is great. Brenda Song. It's fantastic. Congrats on season two. But what's happening in this season here? Do we get more Chet Hanks?

[Chet Hanks]

We get some more of that.

[Jimmy Fallon]

What's your name again?

[Chet Hanks]

Travis.

[Jimmy Fallon]

Travis Bug. Yeah, Bug.

[Chet Hanks]

Travis Bug. Yeah.

[Jimmy Fallon]

Fantastic.

[Chet Hanks]

Yeah, there's a little bit of drama going on. There's a little love triangle. Travis gets his feelings hurt, but then he discovers a love of his own, you know, and it's beautiful. There's a beautiful romance in it.

[Jimmy Fallon]

And this last. Last season, you told me that you have no clue how to play basketball. Still don't. I was gonna ask you. You still don't. You still.

[Chet Hanks]

Yeah, I'm probably worse than I was.

[Jimmy Fallon]

Oh, my gosh. Kate Husson told me to ask you what happened? Did you get stuck in Columbia or something?

[Chet Hanks]

I did. I did get stuck in Columbia, but

[Jimmy Fallon]

this is not for the show. This is real life.

[Chet Hanks]

Real life? Yeah, real life.

[Jimmy Fallon]

I was Chad Hanks goes to Columbia for.

[Chet Hanks]

Yeah, well, it's not that interesting, but basically I have two passports already.

[Jimmy Fallon]

I'm in.

[Chet Hanks]

I'm a dual citizen.

[Jimmy Fallon]

Oh, congratulations.

[Chet Hanks]

With Greece. So I'm like, well, if I have this other passport, like, what's the point in having another passport if I never use it, you know?

[Jimmy Fallon]

Yeah.

[Chet Hanks]

So when I left, I took my Greek passport, and I was like, should I take both? But I lose. I lose stuff a lot.

[Jimmy Fallon]

Yeah.

[Chet Hanks]

So I'm like, if I. If I only take one, then I reduce my chance of losing both my passport by 50%.

[Announcer]

Yes.

[Jimmy Fallon]

Sure, sure, sure.

[Chet Hanks]

So I left my American passport at home.

[Jimmy Fallon]

Okay. All right.

[Chet Hanks]

Turns out you need an American passport to get back into America.

[Announcer]

Yeah.

[Jimmy Fallon]

See, I learned something new every day. I didn't know.

[Chet Hanks]

I didn't. I honestly didn't know that.

[Jimmy Fallon]

No.

[Chet Hanks]

Yeah. Because when I was trying to get back into America with my Greek passport, they were like, where's your green card? And I'm like, I don't have a green card. They're like, well, we need your green card information if we're gonna let you on the flight. And I was like, well, I don't know what to tell you. I'm an American citizen. They're like, okay, where's your American passport? I'm like, I don't have it.

[Jimmy Fallon]

They're like, this is crazy, man. How long have you stuck there?

[Chet Hanks]

I was stuck there, like, an extra week. One of my good friends, Armin, he flew down to join me and he brought my passport.

[Jimmy Fallon]

See, that's what friends are for. Come on, Armin. Shout out to Armin.

[Chet Hanks]

Yeah.

[Announcer]

You're a good man, Armin. You're a good man, dude.

[Francesco de Carlo]

Yeah.

[Jimmy Fallon]

Yeah. I'm happy you're back in the country, bud.

[Announcer]

Chet Hanks, everybody. Running points Season 2 is out now on Netflix. We'll be right back with more tonight's show. Come on back. Our next guest, it's performing at the

[Jimmy Fallon]

Netflix is a joke fest in Los Angeles May 6 at the Hotel Cafe main stage. Making his tonight show debut. Please welcome the very funny Francesco DiCarlo.

[Francesco de Carlo]

Hi. Hi, everybody. My name is Francesco and I come from Rome, Italy. It's. It's a great time to be a foreigner in this country. Yes. I've been waiting for this moment for all my life, and now I'm here. Great idea, Francesco. No, no, I'm joking, officer. I come from Kansas City. Go, chief. I would say whatever to keep my visa. Okay. How many foreigners tonight? Go back to your country. I'm one of them now. I cannot fool anyone with this accent. This is a very strong Italian accent. I don't like it because it's too strong. Okay. And it makes everything stupid. Whatever I say in my mind, that's so clever. Then when I talk, it's like, I hate it. It's terrible. I'm much better in My own language. I'm much more clever in Italian. This is my voice in English. Cuesta la mi avoce in Italiano. You see, in English, I'm not sexy at all. Every time I try to flirt with someone, she says, shut up and cook something.

[Announcer]

And you know why?

[Francesco de Carlo]

I really. I really respect Italian mobsters. I really respect Italian Mafia people here for two reasons. Two reasons. First of all, because from an anthropological point of view, I am scared. Very scared. And second, because I really admire the dedication, okay? I respect their work. You know how hard it is to terrorize a city with this ridiculous accent? How can you do that? It's very. It's impressive. It's so impressive. This is my. It's very hard to be scary if you sound like Super Mario, okay? This is a robbery. Like, put the money in the bag. Let's go. Respect.

[Jimmy Fallon]

Respect.

[Francesco de Carlo]

I was watching a documentary about World War II because I am a real man. And, you know, During World War II, Italy was Allied with Germany.

[Announcer]

What?

[Francesco de Carlo]

Don't worry, jokes are coming. And it's interesting because the alliance of the bad guys was amongst Italy, Germany and Japan. I don't know how familiar you are with these countries, but they are very different, okay? It's the most random alliance ever. Because Germany and Japan are very strict, organized societies. Italy. This is a gesture in Italy that means do it. And the voiceover in the documentary was so funny because it was like, Germany, the power of organization. Japan, honor and discipline. Italy, the art of improvisation. That's why they lost. We saved the world. You're welcome. But no matter what, you like Italy. I love America. Do you like Italy? Yes, always. We are the best Italians. We are the best. And I'm so happy that you like Italy. Every time there is the same reaction when people understand that I'm Italian here, they go crazy. They go, francesco, are you Italian? And I say, yes. Oh, my God. I love Italy. I love Italy. I love Italy. Last summer I was in Barcelona. Some people don't understand why this is funny. It's another country. It's in France. And I would like to close this set in the same way. I finish every first date. Yes. Talking about my mother. She's great. She's the best. Okay? She's a very Italian mom. The Italian moms are always very funny. Very. In every situation. Okay? She's a nurse. I want to tell you this story. Once we were on a flight, and this guy has an heart attack. And the flight attendant asked the people, is there a doctor? Is there a doctor in this plane, and my mom stood up to help, and I stopped her. And I say something very stupid. I said, mom, where are you going? They asked for a doctor. You're a nurse. Very stupid. Very stupid. I was a teenager. It was very stupid. Okay? But she gave me the most Italian answer ever. She said, they don't check your references. And she went, and the guy died. Thank you very much. That's all for me.

[Announcer]

Come on, now. That's how you do it. Come on, bro. Thank you, buddy. Francesco Nicarlo. See Francesco at the Hotel Cafe in Los Angeles, May 6th. We'll be right back, everybody.
