IF YOU JUST RIP 'EM YOURSELF. >> James: YEAH?
I CAN MAKE A REQUEST -- CAN WE -- I HAVE ONE HERE, YOU KNOW.
HERE WE ARE. REG, IN THE BREAK, I WOULD LIKE
YOU TO DRAW A PIECE OF ART IN STEVE'S KNEE.
>> Reggie: INSIDE OF IT? >> James: ON THE FLESH OF THE
KNEE. WHEN WE COME BACK FROM BREAK,
WE'LL START OFF WITH THAT. AN EASTER EGG FOR THE VIEWERS.

>> James: OH WOW. >> THAT'S A DISASTER.
>> James: WE CAN'T DO THE SHOW NOW.
CANCEL JARED LETO. WE'LL BE BACK TOMORROW NIGHT.
[LAUGHTER] YOU'RE NOT GOING TO EAT IT
THOUGH, REG, RIGHT? >> Reggie: I MIGHT.
>> James: NO! HOW'S IT, REG?
>> Reggie: IT TASTES THE SAME. >> James: YEAH?
I IMAGINE WE CLEAN THOSE FLOORS PRETTY REGULARLY.
WELL, LOOK, GUYS, THIS HAS BEEN A DETOUR.
AMERICA IS FREAKING OUT. THEY'RE LIKE -- THEY DON'T KNOW
WHAT THE NEWS IS I'M GOING TO GIVE IT TO THEM NOW.
STEVE, ONE MORE, IT'S THE NEWS... OH [BLEEP]
>> Reggie: THE SALAD. IT'S ALL RUINED.
THE NEWS. [CHEERS AND APPLAUSE]
>> James: HERE IS THE NEWS... THE EAST COAST IS BRACING FOR
WHAT COULD BE A MASSIVE WINTER STORM THIS WEEKEND.
THE STORM IS EXPECTED TO AFFECT STATES ALL THE WAY FROM NORTH
CAROLINA TO MAINE, AND NEW YORK CITY COULD GET ONE TO TWO FEET
OF SNOW. NOW WE'RE GOING TO HEAD OVER TO
IAN FOR THE TRAFFIC. TWO FEET OF SNOW IN NEW YORK?
TWO FEET! SNOW IS MUCH LESS CHARMING AFTER
THE HOLIDAYS, ISN'T IT? IT'S GOT A WISTFUL ROMANCE UNTIL
DECEMBER 25TH AND NOBODY IS DREAMING OF A WHITE DENTIST
APPOINTMENT. UP TO TWO FEET OF SNOW IN NEW
YORK. AND WE'RE ACTUALLY DEALING WITH
OUR OWN WINTER CRISIS HERE IN LOS ANGELES.
THIS WEEKEND, MOST OF US WON'T LEAVE OUR HOUSES, SINCE THE HIGH
WILL ONLY BE 71. [LAUGHTER]
IN OTHER NEWS, SUPREME COURT JUSTICE STEPHEN BREYER MADE HIS
RETIREMENT ANNOUNCEMENT OFFICIAL TODAY.
AND SENATE MAJORITY LEADER CHUCK SCHUMER IS NOW VOWING TO PUSH
THROUGH PRESIDENT BIDEN'S REPLACEMENT PICK WITH,
"ALL DELIBERATE SPEED." I LOVE IT WHEN SCHUMER TALKS
LIKE A SUBMARINE CAPTAIN. [LAUGHTER]
WITH ALL DELIBERATE SPEED SOUNDS LIKE THE NAME OF A BRITISH
REMAKE OF "THE FAST AND THE FURIOUS."
[LAUGHTER] TOO SPEEDY, TOO DELIBERATE.
DEMOCRATS HOPE TO PUSH THROUGH BIDEN'S NOMINATION AT THE SAME
SPEED THAT REPUBLICANS PUSHED THROUGH AMY CONEY BARRETT'S
NOMINATION, JUST 30 DAYS, PROVING THAT IN WASHINGTON, THE
BEST WAY TO GET RESULTS IS THROUGH PURE SPITE.
[LAUGHTER] MOVING ON, ACCORDING TO A NEW
STUDY, PLAYING HARD TO GET REALLY DOES WORK.
APPARENTLY, PEOPLE WHO SEEM TO BE IN HIGH DEMAND ARE PERCEIVED
AS MORE DESIRABLE, AND PEOPLE WHO ARE TOO EASY TO ATTRACT ARE
PERCEIVED AS MORE DESPERATE. YEAH.
THAT'S WHY I WAS NEVER HAVING SEX IN MY TWENTIES.
I WAS JUST PLAYING HARD TO GET. YOU KNOW WHAT ALSO MAKES PEOPLE
MORE DESIRABLE? BEING HOT.
WE'RE SAYING ALL THIS. THAT'S THE MAIN THING.
JARED LETO IS NOT OUT THERE NOW LIKE, WHAT?
OH, I SHOULD PLAY HARD TO GET? OK.
FROM YOUR DAYS AS A SINGLE MAN, DO YOU REMEMBER THIS TACTIC
BEING EFFECTIVE PLAYING HARD TO GET?
>> Reggie: I DON'T REMEMBER ANY TACTIC BEING EFFECTIVE.
EVERY HOOKUP OR RELATIONSHIP CAME AS A SURPRISE EVERY TIME.
>> James: TO EVERYBODY THERE. >> TO EVERYBODY THERE.
>> James: TO EVERYBODY THERE. >> Reggie: YEAH.
SIX WEEKS INTO DATING AND THEY'RE LIKE WHOA?
WHAT? HOW?
HOW? >> James: YOU'RE LIKE, I'M AS
SURPRISED AS YOU ARE. >> Reggie: YEAH.
LIKE GOING A MAGIC SHOW. YOU KNOW WHAT I MEAN?
I DON'T KNOW HOW ANY OF THIS WORKS.
I DON'T BELIEVE IT DOES BUT I'M HAVING A GOOD TIME.
>> James: FOR SURE. ALL RIGHT.
A RUSSIAN YOUTUBER HAS JUST CREATED THE WORLD'S FIRST
RETRACTABLE LIGHTSABER, POWERFUL ENOUGH TO CUT THROUGH STEEL.
IT HAS A THREE-FOOT PLASMA BLADE THAT REACHES TEMPERATURES OVER
3,000 DEGREES CELSIUS. TAKE A LOOK AT THIS
>> THE TEMPERATURE OF HYDROGEN AND OXYGEN FLAME IS NEARLY 3,000
DEGREES CELSIUS, SO YOU CAN BURN THROUGH STEEL WITH THIS
LIGHTSABER. >> James: IT'S A BLOWTORCH!
[LAUGHTER] WELL DONE.
YOU MADE A BLOWTORCH. [LAUGHTER]
[APPLAUSE] BUT YOU'RE CALLING IT A
LIGHTSABER, HUH? IS IT MADE FROM A KYBER CRYSTAL,
PREFERABLY FROM THE ICE -BOUND CAVES OF THE PLANET ILUM?
THEN IT'S NOT A LIGHTSABER, BUDDY.
IT REACHES TEMPERATURES OVER 3,000 DEGREES CELSIUS.
STILL NOT AS HOT AS THE GUY WHO INVENTED IT.
LOOK AT THIS GUY. [LAUGHTER]
>> James: AND FINALLY, MINNIE MOUSE IS NOW DITCHING HER ICONIC
RED DRESS FOR A PANTSUIT. IT'S TO CELEBRATE DISNEYLAND
PARIS' 30TH ANNIVERSARY, AS WELL AS WOMEN'S HISTORY MONTH, AND
THE OUTFIT WAS DESIGNED BY STELLA MCCARTNEY.
CHECK IT OUT, LOOK AT THAT.
HONESTLY? I'D WEAR IT.
[LAUGHTER] HAVE YOU BEEN TO DISNEYLAND
PARIS? >> Reggie: NO.
>> James: IT'S NOT GOOD. >> Reggie: WHAT'S SO DIFFERENT
ABOUT IT? >> James: BECAUSE IT'S IN
FRANCE. SO IT'S LIKE DISNEYLAND CAN ONLY
EXIST IN AMERICA IN A PLACE WHERE IT'S LIKE OH, THIS IS
AMAZING. PIPED MUSIC AND, OH WOW,
INCREDIBLE. DISNEYLAND PARIS IS LIKE THEY'VE
TRIED TO DO IT BUT ALL THE PEOPLE THAT WORK THERE ARE LIKE.
[PUFFING] YOU BE LIKE, IS THERE SPACE
MOUNTAIN? IS IT GOING TO OPEN TONIGHT?
[MUMBLING. [I DO NOT KNOW.
ALE, ALE. THAT'S LIKE GOOFY.
GOOFY'S GOT A GLASS OF RED WINE LIKE -- NO.
IS THE GIFT SHOP OPEN? NO.
[LAUGHTER] MINI ISN'T THE ONLY ONE
ATTEMPTING TO BE PROGRESSIVE AND FASHION-FORWARD.
MICKEY MOUSE WILL NOW START WEARING, HARRY STYLES' DRESS
FROM THE COVER OF VOGUE. AND THAT'S THE NEWS
