our next guest is the head writer and Weekend Update anchor on Saturday Night Live ladies
and gentlemen here he is the very funny Seth Meyer good to have you with us again it's good
to be back I have some photos here yeah and and sometimes I I look at them and decide to save them
but they're so provocative I think I would like to get right to them great if you don't if you
don't mind no I don't mind okay I don't think I've seen anything quite like this one okay what are we
looking at there well uh the last time I was here I told you about how my girlfriend's father had a
pet goat named raisin that's right that's right and that is raisin and uh what happened was my
uh my girlfriend's father was a bit of a local celebrity because he was the guy with a Petco
you don't see that every day yeah then this summer uh big developments in the goat world
another guy in town got a pet goat wow and that guy's goat uh could swim it was a swimming goat
so in the course of 12 months Tom went from like oh you have a pet goat that's amazing to you have
a pet goat can it swim so well now I know nothing about goats except they have creepy eyes but other
than that they're not supposed to swim well you know more than Tom because in the most predictable
outcome you know once he started hearing that like non-swimming goats were so summer of 2009
uh we go down to the beach and that was the photo you saw of him trying
to teach yeah raisin right swim and you can't but I can't really tell because
wait a minute I think I hear Peta calling now I always you can't really tell that in real
life Tom was exerting every bit of effort and the Goat was exerting like none and and and a
crowd of people Gathering a lot of people gathered and it was like anyone who passed
could like understand the psychology of it immediately there you go it was a little
progress although I should point out most of the progress here is due to the rising tide
the tide and more to do it he is not the the spur he thought he was uh but people walk by
and they go hey what's that guy doing we're like he's trying to teach his goat how to swim and
they'd be like oh because of the other girl it was like everybody was really sad yeah and then he was
like kids are like hey I'm gonna show I'm gonna do this everybody watch
and then you watch well the kid like can't do the trick we all kind of watch him for a while
and then just went back to doing what we're doing and then like an hour of that he came up was like
did you see did you see him but but did you ever see the goat that swim we did see the swimming
goat and then another interesting development the guy who had the swimming goat left for the
summer and so Ruby this swimming goat moved into raisins oh my gosh and it was a real All About
Eve situation yeah raisin was always looking to get Ruby to the top of a set of stairs so
we could just push her give her a give her a goat butt wow yeah wow what a what a great life what
a colorful existence congratulations well it's it's my girlfriend's father is the great life I
just visit yes but to be near the tabask and the glory to be near competitive goats yes exactly
um and uh congratulations on another family issue well yeah my brother well my brother's
going to be in the Pee-wee Herman show on Broadway well we've got a guy here tonight
um so you and your brother working in the same city that's great it's great and we haven't been
in the same city for a long time so my parents are coming down on the weekends and it's great
because we watch football which was a real Meyers family tradition growing up and another tradition
which is in its 30th year is the Myers family football pool which my dad started when his
children were six and four which is we would pick all the football games and uh what I tell people
that they're always like oh that's horrible you know he could have given you a gambling problem
but uh I've known for since I was six that I'm terrible at picking football uh because one year
the first year my dad thought it'd be fun if the dog also picked games there you go so he flipped
a coin for the dog and I think Seattle missed a field goal like late in the season or else
the dog would have won the Family Pool well you know I I I like stuff like that does it continue
now it continues now and it's funny because like it now we email in pics we have to email
it in every Sunday morning but it was more fun when we'd have to call him in because I remember
in college I'd be on the phone I'd be like Dallas uh New York with the points since that was my dad
but even now it's like 20 a week my dad refuses to let us pick the first week unless we send
him a check and I see my parents all the time and also like I'm good for it yeah but
it's very and like I wouldn't be surprised if you just sent a couple guys to my house like not to
rough me up but just to like look around and go like a lot of nice stuff here I would hate for
anything to fall off the wall yeah something go wrong uh but it's a neat thing but I like
the idea that Dad needs the dough up front that is pretty awesome and my mom's the best because
my mom is constantly incredulous at outcomes of football games if it's the opposite of so
she'll call up and be like I guess all of a sudden Drew Brees likes throwing interceptions
it's really the only possible explanation
well I I like your family and I and I kind of like your girlfriend's father Yes um now here's
another provocative photo yeah I brought a lot of provocative no goats here my friend what is
going on all right so that's a picture of me from uh the September issue of Vogue magazine
whoop-dee-doo I want to point out what happened was they asked me if I want to do it and they
were like it's we're going to take these photos on park benches it's gonna be a lot of New Yorkers
like people like Derek Jeter and Mike Bloomberg and I was like okay that's an honor and like I
could fit between them as far as fashion goes and then I show up and it was just like models
and this photo looks like five models and like their tax accountant it was like like well yeah
uh somebody's got to balance the books someone's got to balance the book and
the and I was so desperate to try to feel like uh like to pretend like I fit in and I should
say they were really nice to me although I am starting to realize they might have thought
like I was a charity case like a contest winner but at one point they said to one
of the models like hey can you take your top off no they did and the way everybody
reacted I got the sense that happens there all the time yeah because like no one called HR
but
so so it's you beautiful women and one is removing her once they say it's Naomi
Campbell takes her top off and I worked having a conversation when she does this
and I'm thinking like I can't betray the fact that this is the most awesome thing that's ever
happened to me yeah I have to act like I've been there before you know like this this
happens to me all the time a model take your top off yeah yesterday um so instead I made
this decision instead of looking I would just make eye contact with her while we talked and
as that went on I realized that is actually creepier than if I just looked at what was
going on wow so I think it's my first and last and we LED with the swim and goat story we did
um this man is Seth Meyers Saturday Night Live you can see it live Saturday nights
good pleasure to see you again thank you very much
