>> THANK YOU.
>> Stephen: PEOPLE HAVE NOT SEEN US TOGETHER IN ALMOST TWO
YEARS.
YOU AND I SEE EACH OTHER.
YOU HAVE A PLACE IN THE SUMMERTIME IN SOUTH CAROLINA,
AND THAT'S WHERE I SPEND A LOT OF MY TIME, DOWN THERE.
AND WE GET TOGETHER AND WE DRINK.
>> WE HAVE SOME ROSE.
>> Stephen: WE HAVE A LOT OF ROSE.
I DID NOT SEE YOU THIS SUMMER.
I INVITED YOU TO MY FOURTH OF JULY PARTY AND YOU SAID, "SORRY,
I CAN'T MAKE IT.
I HAVE MY OWN FOURTH OF JULY PARTY."
>> YOUR KIDS ARE A LITTLE BIT OLDER BUT IT'S ALL ABOUT THEIR
SCHEDULED AND THEIR TIMING.
AND THEY WANTED TO GO TO A-- YOUR PARTY IS FUN, BUT IT'S NOT
FOR A FIVE-YEAR-OLD.
>> Stephen NO IT'S AN ADULT PARTY.
>> WE TRIED TO WORK OUT THE TIMING AND WE WERE AT THE KIDS'
PARTY.
AND I WAS LIKE DO WE RIDE OUR BIKES OVER TO STEPHENS AND I
SAID I THINK WE COULD GET A TICKET IF WE RODE OUR BIKE AS IN
THE POINT BECAUSE WE HAD TOO MUCH ROSE.
>> Stephen: THE KIDS WOULD HAVE TO PEDAL AT A CERTAIN
POINT.
>> AND THEY WERE NOT PREPARED TO DO THAT.
>> Stephen: SO YOU WERE AT A DIFFERENT PARTY.
>> YES.
>> Stephen: THAT I WAS NOT INVITED TO.
>> BUT I DID SEE YOUR WIFE AND I SAW YOUR KIDS.
I JUST DIDN'T SEE YOU.
>> Stephen: THAT DOESN'T COUNT.

"THIS WILL ONLY HURT A LITTLE."
>> YES.
>> Stephen: IT'S A MEMOIR.

HUMANS."
WHAT'S A SPARKLY HUMAN?
>> YOU'RE A SPARKLY HUMAN.
>> Stephen: I AM?
>> YES, YOU ARE.
AND YOUR WIFE IS ALSO A SPARKLY HUMAN.
>> Stephen: THANK YOU VERY MUCH.
>> SPARKLY HUMANS ARE JUST PEOPLE WHO EXIST IN THE WORLD
AND YOU CAN SEE THEM WHEN THEY'RE LITTLE KIDS WHERE OTHER
HUMANS JUST SORT OF GRAVITATE TOWARD THEM AND WANT TO HELP
THEM, DO THINGS FOR THEM.
AND SPARKLY HUMANS DON'T ALWAYS END UP FAMOUS.
THEY DON'T ALWAYS ENDS UP.
ERS IN THE PUBLIC EYE.
THEY COULD BE A BARISTA AT STARBUCKS.
AND YOU SEE THEM YOU'RE LIKE, "I WANT TO KNOW MORE ABOUT YOU."
EVIDENCE A SPARK LOU KID AND TEENAGER AND YOUNG PERSON WHERE
PEOPLE WANTED TO HELP ME DO THINGS.
I DON'T KNOW.

PRETTY BOLD RIGHT NOW.

>> IT IS, WELL-- WOW!
WELL, HERE'S THE THING-- WHEN I-- TINA FEY IS MY EXECUTIVE
PRODUCER ON THE SHOW--

>> NOT A BAD DEAL FOR ME!
I CALLED HER AND SAID, "I WANT TO DO A LATE-NIGHT TALK SHOW."
AND SHE SAID, "OKAY, LET'S MAKE THAT HAPPEN."
AND E.!
SAID WE HAVE SPACE.
AND THEY SAID MAYBE DO ONE NIGHT A WEEK AND MAKE SURE YOU HAVE
THE FLOW.
I SAID NO I WANT TO DO FOUR NIGHTS A WEEK, IT'S TOPICAL, I
WANT TO DO CURRENT EVENTS.
LET'S DO A NIGHTLY SHOW.
AND THEY SAID, TINA FEY AND BUSY, SURE, OKAY.
>> Stephen: IT'S CALLED "BUSY TONIGHT?"
>> "BUSY TONIGHT."
>> Stephen: WHO IS YOUR DREAM GUEST?
>> YOU KNOW THIS, I THINK, BECAUSE YOU'RE I HOST.
BUT I FEEL LIKE WHEN YOU START TALKING IN TERMS OF DREAM
GUESTS, THEN OTHER PEOPLE'S FEELINGS GET HURT, RIGHT?
LIKE IF I'M LIKE MY DREAM-- NO.
( LAUGHTER )
I MEAN, IT'S OBVIOUSLY OPRAH!
OPRAH IS -- >> Stephen: NO ONE'S FEELINGS
WILL BE HURT IF YOU SAY OPRAH.

JEREMIAH BRENT.
AND I WAS AT THEIR WEDDING, WHICH SHE OFFICIATED AT THE NEW
YORK PUBLIC-- IT WAS THE MOST BEAUTIFUL THING.
AND I WAS LIKE THIS IS GOING TO BE MY MOMENT WITH OPRAH, THEN I
WENT TO THE BATHROOM AND SHE CAME OUT OF THE STALL AND I WAS
LIKE THIS IS ABOUT TO BE MY MOMENT WITH OPRAH.
AND ONE OF MY BEST FRIENDS IRENE WHO IS A JEWELRY DESIGNER
STEPPED IN FRONT OF ME AND SAID, "OPEN RARKS YOU HAVE SOME OF MY
EARRINGS.
I'M IRENE."
AND I SAID NOT MY MOMENT AND I BOLTED OUT OF THE BATHROOM.
>> Stephen: SHE GAVE ME A BASKET OF AVOCADOS ONCE.
>> MY DREAM IS TO BE INVITED TO HARVEST DAY!
>> Stephen: THERE'S A HARVEST DAY.
>> SHE HAS ONE IN MONT CITO AND MAUI.
I WOULD TAKE EITHER.
ON HARVEST DAY, THE BOUNTY OF THE HARVEST.
>> Stephen: THE AVOCADOS.
>> YOU GOT THE AVOCADOS FROM HARVEST DAY.
>> Stephen: SHE FLEW THEM IN TO ME.
SHE INTERVIEWED ME FOR HER SHOW.
SHE COULD HAVE ASKED ME ANYTHING AND I WOULD HAVE TOLD HER--
TROOP NUMBERS.
YOU YOU'RE JUST CAUGHT IN THE BEAMS OF HER EYES.
>> IT'S PROBABLY PRETTY MAGICAL.
I HAVE FINGERS CROSSED.
>> Stephen: SHE'S PROBABLY WATCHING RIGHT NOW.
TEMPT OPRAH.
