Ho, ho, ho, everybody and welcome.
It is a Fridays with Ray and Jay and ho-ho,
but more importantly,
John and I look like-
[John] We are.
We're about to watch "Elf"
for the thousandth time.
We are wearing our friends,
holiday sweaters from her latest
collection.
Please. Welcome back.
Our first guest, our friend,
Whoopi Goldberg.
[Rachael And John Shout In Unison]
[Whoopi] Hello, happy holiday.
I'm very happy.
Well, you know, you gotta have
your do done.
You gotta have your do' done.
That sweater looks amazing on you
. I'm just going to say.
Whoop, we love the sweater.
In fact, I'm, I'm just going to
do this right now.
I can't, help me hon. Look at this.
Are you stuck?
I'm stuck.
Oh!
Look at what I did.
[Rachel] Oh, a two-play! Double-down.
[Whoopi] I, first of all,
you're set with both those sweaters on,
and I thank you because
I know how hot they can be.
It can get, I love all they-
the sweaters. This year
are really fun
and wonderful and silly.
And just everything you want after
being stuck in the house
for two years.
You would be so excited.
It has been gentle,
giant flurries...
like "Q" is seen in, in,
in a film or something all day long.
And I, I, I, I brought props,
but props to you.
Everybody loves the
holiday sweater party.
Everybody loves the holiday picture.
We love that you sent us
our holiday sweaters,
John doubled down. That is a serious man.
I didn't triple down,
I doubled down.
If you had tripled down,
you could have only lasted
about four minutes before
you had to take (mumbles)
you'd have just keeled over.
And you know, next year, it's,
it's our hope to do doggie sweaters.
Oh, that's.
Finally, Bella can be in the family segment!
She'll be in the show.
Yes, she can. Yes she can.
You know,
She's 80. Pounds in a year.
She's so big.
She's such a mush.
Like she'll roll over at night,
like waiting for anyone.
Someone's eventually going to scratch.
Yeah. And the idea that
no one comes to scratch me.
I do it all the time.
I lay on my back and nobody
comes around my belly.
I'm just out there.
I try that all the time.
I can't even get John
to do that anymore.
I'll scratch your belly.
Something tells me, tonight.
Tell everybody how the lines
expanding and where everybody
can get this. Cause it's so fun.
Well, I think they can go to
Nordstrom this year and get
everything and we've got socks
and we've got sweaters and
we've got gloves. You've got
just all kinds of stuff.
And, and the whole idea is
for me that when you think about what
we collectively have been through.
The losses and, and the,
the sadness and the anger
and the rage,
it's now time to just set
it aside and just make it all
about the joy of family.
Because next year you can go
back to convention about how
you don't want to go to so-and-so's
house because their food
is never good.
But this year, you know,
you wouldn't be happy about
going to so-and-so's house
because you haven't seen
so-and-so in so long.
And you just want to say,
let me see your face.
Happy holidays, (blows kiss)
Yeah. Coming out of a cycle of loss,
everybody has gone through
it in some way,
and this is our time to be
the kindest we've ever been to
one another. And to be mindful, you know,
whatever religion you practice,
wherever you live,
the whole planet is and should
be kinder to each other
at this time.
We all went through the same
thing at the same time for a year.
Two years.
We've been here two years.
Yeah, Two years.
Feels like I don't even know. Time is lost.
