>> Greg: A STORY IN FIVE
WORDS.
MIKE’S NEW BOOK PUZZLES ME.
FIRST QUESTION I HAVE TO ASK
YOU, MIKE, "NEVER GIVE AN INCH."
WHO ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT?
NEVER GIVE AN INCH TO WHOM?
>> ANY BAD GUYS.
HOW’S THAT?
>> Greg: THAT’S PRETTY GOOD.
ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT OTHER
COUNTRIES?
I AM ALWAYS TORN BETWEEN TALKING
ABOUT GOOD AND EVIL AND THEN
ALSO -- LIKE, I STARTED READING
ABOUT COGNITIVE EMPATHY, TRYING
TO BE ABLE TO UNDERSTAND THE
ENEMY.
WHAT ARE THEIR INTERESTS?
BUT IF YOU DO THAT, PEOPLE WILL
SAY YOU ARE A SYMPATHIZER.
>> IT’S A PRETTY NASTY WORLD OUT
THERE.
YOU GOT TO BE PRETTY STRONG.
>> Greg: WITH YOUR FEELING
THESE DAYS ABOUT UKRAINE?
LET ME REPHRASE THAT.
ARE WE IN A WAR WITH RUSSIA AND
UKRAINE IS OUR INSTRUMENT?
>> I DON’T THINK SO.
I THINK PUTIN MAY THINK WE ARE,
BUT I DON’T THINK THAT’S THE
CASE.
>> Greg: I KIND OF FEEL THAT
WAY, BECAUSE WE HAVE BEEN
RUNNING HOT AND COLD WITH THEM
FOR SO LONG.
BUT HE DID INVADE, SO, I MEAN...
>> KILLING LOTS OF LITTLE KIDS.
NOT GOOD.
>> Greg: EXACTLY.
WHAT DID YOU MAKE OF ZELENSKYY
THINKING -- YOU DID HE THINK?
JPMORGAN, GOLDMAN SACHS, BLACK
ROCK?
THAT WAS WEIRD.
>> I SPENT SOME TIME WITH
ZELENSKYY.
I’M SURPRISED.
HE’S PRETTY BOLD, I GIVE HIM
CREDIT FOR THAT.
LOTS OF PROBLEMS IN UKRAINE,
LOTS OF CORRUPTION.
THEY ARE FIGHTING, THERE IS NO
DOUBT ABOUT THAT.
>> Greg: THAT’S THE THING,
THEY ARE FIGHTING FOR THE
COUNTRY.
ALL THAT OTHER STUFF KIND OF
GOES AWAY.
BUT THERE IS -- WE DO HAVE TO
FOLLOW THE MONEY.
WHEN IT’S GOING TO UKRAINE.
>> WATCH EVERY BOOK.
>> IT’S LIKELY TO END UP IN
HUNTER’S HOT TUB.
[LAUGHTER]
AND THEN YOU HAVE TO DISINFECT
IT.
WHAT ARE YOU LOOKING AT?
>> I’M JUST LOOKING AT YOU.
>> DO YOU MISS TRUMP?
WHAT WAS IT LIKE WORKING WITH
HIM?
I TALKED TO HIM OFTEN ON, AND
I’VE ALWAYS GOT THE SENSE
THAT IT’S ALWAYS GOOD TO BE ON A
FRIENDLY BASIS WITH HIM, BUT
DON’T GET TOO CLOSE, BECAUSE YOU
DON’T WANT TO BE THE TARGET OF,
LIKE, ANGER.
WHAT WAS IT LIKE IT?
>> DID YOU SEE THE PICTURES OF
ME AFTER THOSE FOUR YEARS?
[LAUGHTER]
I THINK THAT ANSWERS YOUR
QUESTION.
>> Greg: HOW DID YOU LOSE YOUR
WEIGHT?
>> I STOPPED EATING EVERYTHING I
LOVE.
>> Greg: OKAY, LET ME ASK YOU
THIS.
[LAUGHTER]
>> THAT’S HOW IT GOES DOWN, YES.
>> YOU ANSWER THAT SO QUICKLY,
TOO!
>> I CAN STILL FEEL THE BREAD IN
THE PASTA.
>> Greg: HOW DO YOU GET UP IN
THE MORNING?
YOU KNOW THEN -- BASICALLY, DID
YOU DO KIND OF AN ATKINS DIET?
>> I DID THE POMPEO DIET.
I JUST STOPPED EATING.
[LAUGHTER]
SERIOUSLY, NO BREAD, NO PASTA.
THAT’S WHAT I ATE.
CHICKEN, VEGETABLES.
>> BUT YOU DIDN’T GIVE AN INCH.
>> Greg: WHAT IS THAT STUFF
EVERYONE IS DOING?
>> OZEMPIC.
>> IF I COULD DO A SHORT CUT,
SIGN ME UP.
>> Greg: I WOULD DO OZEMPIC.
BUT DIABETICS CAN’T GET THE DRUG
BECAUSE EVERYONE IN HOLLYWOOD IS
PUMPING IT.
>> IT’S A NEEDLE.
SO YOU’RE NOT POPPING IT.
>> Greg: IT’S A NEEDLE?
I DON’T READ THE STORIES.
>> YOU ASKED A QUESTION ABOUT
NORTH KOREA?
>> NO, GO FOR THE WEIGHT LOSS
THING.
I KNOW THE ANSWER TO THAT ONE.
[LAUGHTER]
>> Greg: IT TURNED OUT PRETTY
COOL.
I WAS GOING, THIS IS CRAZY, AND
THEN IT WORKS OUT.
HOW WERE YOU WHEN IT HAPPENED?
>> IT WAS PRETTY COOL.
MY FIRST TRIP, ESPECIALLY.
IT WAS A CLANDESTINE TRIP.
IT IS THE ONLY THING THAT DIDN’T
LEAK IN FOUR YEARS IN
WASHINGTON.
AND HERE WITH THIS GUY, HE’S
PRETTY EVIL.
A LITTLE GUY, KIND OF SWEATY.
[LAUGHTER]
>> Greg: HIM AND I WOULD GET
ALONG.
AND I TALLER THAN HIM?
>> UH...
[LAUGHTER]
>> NO.
>> Greg: WHY ARE YOU
APPLAUDING THAT?
OH, DON’T MAKE FUN OF PENCE, BUT
MAKE FUN OF GUTFELD’S HEIGHT!
>> WHAT ADVICE DO YOU HAVE FOR
MEN LIKE GREG WHO DON’T HAVE AN
INCH TO GIVE?
[LAUGHTER AND APPLAUSE]
>> WE ARE GOING TO MISS HER!
>> Greg: I LOVE THAT JOKE, BUT
YOU WON’T BE BACK.
[LAUGHTER]
I ASSUME YOU’RE NOT GOING TO
ANSWER THAT.
ARE YOU RUNNING FOR PRESIDENT?
>> I DON’T KNOW.
>> COME ON!
>> Greg: THAT’S A "YES."
>> WE ARE THINKING ABOUT IT.
>> Greg: I’M GOING TO GIVE OUT
THREE NAMES COME YOU TELL ME
WHICH ONE KILLED JFK.
>> OKAY.
>> Greg: SAMMY DAVIS JR.?
>> VERY UNLIKELY.
>> Greg: PHYLLIS DILLER?
NO?
>> NO COMMENT.
[LAUGHTER]
I’VE GOT TO MAKE IT EXCITING.
I’M GOING WITH PHYLLIS DILLER.
[LAUGHTER]
>> Greg: COULD HAVE SAID THE
ALIENS DID IT AND IT WOULD HAVE
BLOWN MY BRAIN.
>> IT WAS THAT GUY.
