OK, so Kalen was here.
And I loved him so much, so we made a deal with him.
And he is now working with us, and we're helping
him put things together.
[APPLAUSE]
So I don't think we even finished even a contract.
And you moved out here immediately.
Yes, I did.
All right, so you moved out here.
And how do you like living in LA?
I absolutely love LA.
But my mother is not too happy with the 14 boxes
that I had shipped out here, OK?
Because, listen, I've got a lot of stuff,
and everything that I have is very important to me,
especially my hammock.
Yes, I have a hammock.
Two years ago, I bought this hammock off
of Amazon for my dorm room.
It even has a name.
I call it Sasha, because I love Beyonce
and I'm a Beyonce specialist.
Thank you for the walk in music.
It's much appreciated.
But, honey, I just get in that hammock and all of my troubles
just go away.
Do you hang it, or is it-- does it have a stand?
No, it has a stand.
There's a metal stand.
It weighs like 50 pounds, child.
Uh huh.
And then you put the little rope down on there.
Yeah.
Oh, I see.
See, there it is.
Those are my roommates!
Oh, they're going to be so happy.
[APPLAUSE]
Those are your roommates here?
No, those are my roommates from Philadelphia.
Oh, so you left them.
Uh huh.
That was there.
Yes.
And now you live by yourself here.
Yes.
Yeah, and you're liking it?
Mhm, right down the street.
OK, good.
We're neighbors.
All right, and what--
yes, we are.
Yes.
And what broke when you moved here?
I heard something broke.
OK, let me tell you this story.
So the company that moved my stuff out here broke my TV.
Oh, no.
Listen, y'all, it just makes me so upset when I think about it.
Because TGIT starts this week.
How am I supposed to watch Shondaland?
I need to watch Scandal, How to Get Away with Murder.
And I knew you watch Scandal, OK?
Yeah.
Listen, OK?
And the hammock arrives today.
And, y'all, my spirit is heavy.
Because if that hammock shows up and it's in pieces,
oh, Kalen is not going to be a happy camper.
OK.
Not at all.
No, hopefully they don't--
well, I know Jeff Garland has a TV, so he could give you--
he could give you his.
So you signed this deal with us.
Your family must be so happy for you.
Oh, my goodness, yes.
My mother is living her best life right now.
When I called her, she started just crying.
And she was like, I'm so proud of you.
I'm so happy for you.
Because a year ago, before all of this happened--
I'm an artist, and being an artist
is one of the hardest things to know how to navigate.
And I called her.
And I was just like, momma, I don't know what's next.
I was like, I don't know what the path is.
I don't know what's going to happen after graduation.
And so, for you to just be so open,
and to give me this platform and be so generous,
it really has changed my life.
I'm so thankful and so grateful, because you have really
just changed my entire life.
Well, you're a talented guy.
I mean, people love you.
I'm thrilled that we found you.
Listen, if it wasn't me, it was going to be somebody else.
You are a very talented artist, as you say.
Thank you.
Anybody who has a hammock in their house,
I think that's special.
So what is the issue?
I hear there's one issue you have with LA.
And one is that?
Now, look, I got this hat on today,
because underneath this is a full grown Brillo Pad.
I have not been able to find a barber.
I went on Google last night trying to find me a barber.
Uh huh.
That hair cut was $80 and up.
Listen, if I pay $80 for a haircut,
it better come with a warranty.
I'm not paying that.
[LAUGHTER]
That's a hotmess dot com.
A matter of fact, who cuts Twitch's hair?
I've got you, bro.
Can I afford him?
I'm saying, I got you, bro.
Hey, but I've got to afford him, honey.
Because you work here, so I know you probably can't even
afford the same things as me.
Yes.
Twitch, be honest.
How much does your hair cut cost?
My haircut's $35.
OK.
And it's awesome.
Listen, we going.
OK, cool, I got you.
I got you.
OK.
Yeah, done.
There we go.
And my stylist husband owns a barber shop.
So we'll find out.
Maybe you can get a little deal there,
because he owns a barber shop.
Family and friends?
Yeah.
Let's do it.
All right, we'll do it.
I'm back with my favorite food critic, Kalen Allen.
And so, yeah, you're right.
You cannot miss-- well, first of all,
you can't miss the whole Thursday lineup of Shondaland.
You can't miss that.
You can't miss Ellen's Game of Games on Tuesday nights on NBC
at 8 o'clock.
Right.
You can't miss that.
You can't miss my show during the day.
Yeah.
There's a lot of things you can't miss.
Mhm.
So we're going to give you a 55 inch TCL Roku TV.
Stop!
So you're going to take that.
Ah!
All right?
I can watch my shows.
All right, you can watch your shows.
And there's going to be a TV in that box.
I'm going to make sure of it.
I feel it.
Don't you worry.
All right, and then you made another video for us.
Mhm.
So if you go to our website, you're
going to see the latest food video that Kalen did for us.
Yes.
He is so hilarious, as you know.
40 million views you got.
What did that feel like when you realized 40 million views?
It's amazing.
And, actually, it's so funny.
Because when people see me out in public
and they say something, it still catches me off guard.
And I have social anxiety sometimes,
so I never know what to say.
I'm like, oh, thanks.
Yeah, great.
I remember I asked this one little girl.
I was like, what's your name?
Do you like it here?
Great.
I didn't know what to say, so it's all very new.
Yeah.
Right.
