FINALLY IT HIT ME, I'M STARTING TO GET INTO THE
CHRISTMAS SPIRIT.
IT'S SEEPING, WELL, I APPRECIATE THE APPLAUSE.
I APPRECIATE IT.
I'M GETTING THERE.
WHAT ABOUT YOU, REG, ARE YOU STARTING TO FEEL CHRISTMASSY AT
ALL?
>> NOT YET.
>> James: NO?
>> Reggie: I HOPE.
I HOPE IT HITS ME LIKE A SLEDGEHAMMER IN THE MIDDLE OF
THE NIGHT THAT I WASN'T EXPECTING.
>> James: IT WOULD BE GOOD IF IT DID.
IT WOULD BE GOOD IF ITS WITH A BIT LIKE GLORIA ESTEFAN WHEN SHE
TALKS ABOUT HOW THE RILT IMIS GOING TO GET YOU.
>> YEAH.
>> James: HE CAN DON'T KNOW WHEN IT HAPPENS, BUT BAM,.
♪ THAT WOULD BE-- YEAH, WELL, WHAT IS THIS ON THE DESK.
WHAT HAVE WE DPOT HERE?
WHAT IS THIS, LOU.
>> THE TRUMP ADMINISTRATION SENT THIS FOR YOU.
>> James: THE TRUMP ADMINISTRATION SENT ME A
CORONAVIRUS VACCINE-- OH, A CORONAVIRUS VACCINE.
>> I THOUGHT IT WAS GREATK I DIDN'T HAVE TO COME UP WITH AN
IDEA TONIGHT.
>> James: LET'S DO IT LET'S DO IT.
(LAUGHTER) THANKS, LOU, VERY CHRISTMASSY.
LOVELY, A LOVELY CHRISTMAS TREAT.
I APPRECIATE IT VERY MUCH.
LET'S TAKE A LOOK AT SOME OF THE HEADLINES.
AS YOU KNOW PRESIDENT TRUMP IS STILL FIGHTING TO REVERSE THE
ELECTION BUT WITH NO CREDIBLE EVIDENCE OF FRAUD.
HE DOESN'T HAVE MUCH OF AN ARGUMENT.
SO THIS MORNING TRUMP JUST WENT AHEAD AND TWEETED HASHTAG
OVERTURN, YOU KNOW, DEMOCRACY.
ALL OF THE OTHER WAYS TRUMP HAS TRIED TO UNDERMINE THE WILL OF
THE VOTERS HAVEN'T WORKED SO NOW HE'S PULLING OUT THE ACE IN THE
HOLE, THE SECRET WEAPON, THE WIDOW MAKER, A HASHTAG.
BUT LATER IN THE DAY TRUMP DID TRY TO LAY OUT SOME KIND OF AN
ARGUMENT FOR REVERSING THE ELECTION AND BOY, WHAT AN ARGUE.
HE TWEETED AT 10 P.M. ON ELECTION EVENING WE WERE AT 97%
WIN WITH THE SO CALLED BOOKIES.
AND HE'S GOT A POINT.
EVERYONE KNOWS PRESIDENTIAL ELECTION RESULTS AREN'T OFFICIAL
UNTIL THEY HAVE BEEN CERTIFIED BY DRAFT KING BUT THERE IS GOOD
NEWS WHEN IT COMES TO THE BOOKIE, HE IS NOW CONSIDERED THE
ODDS ON FAVORITE TO WIN THE KENTUCKY DERBY.
I GLES IT'S POSSIBLE THAT TRUMP IS NOT TALKING ABOUT GAMBLERS IN
THAT TWEET.
BOOKIES ALSO SOUNDS LIKE HOW HE DESCRIBES SOMEONE WHO IS SMART.
DO YOU KNOW WHAT I MEAN, STUPID BOOKIE, WITH THE NERD GLASSES
AND BACKPACK.
AND DID YOU SEE THIS, FORMER TRUMP ADVISOR KELLYANNE CONWAY
IS BACK IN THE NEWS.
SHE HAS JUST SIGNED A MULTIMILLION DOLLAR BOOK DEAL TO
WRITE A MEMOIR ABOUT HER TIME IN THE WHITE HOUSE.
KELLYANNE CONWAY WILL NOW BE AMONG THE PANTHEON OF LEGENDARY
AUTHORS LIKE CHRIS CHRISTIE AND OMAROSA.
AND FINALLY, WE GET A TELL-ALL BOOK ABOUT WHAT HAPPENS IN THE
WHITE HOUSE.
IT'S BEEN LIKE 50, HAVEN'T THERE.
I MEAN WHAT POSSIBLY CAN WE LEARN AT THIS POINT THAT WE
DON'T ALREADY KNOW, IAN?
>> I GET LIKE HOW MANY TIMES ERIC RAN INTO A GLASS DOOR
BECAUSE HE DIDN'T SEE T LIKE A BIRD.
I BET IT'S MORE THAN FIVE.
>> James: I BET IT'S MORE THAN FIVE.
IT IS BETWEEN FIVE AND A THOUSAND.
>> YEAH.
>> James: YEAH, ACCORDING TO REPORTS THIS IS REAL, MEMBERS OF
TRUMP'S INNERCIRCLE ARE QUOTE QUAKING IN THEIR BOOTS, MAINLY
BECAUSE SHEFF THEY'VE GOT CORONAVIRUS BUT THE BOOK IS ALSO
DREADFUL.
AS YOU KNOW THE PLAY STATION FIVE IS THE HOTTEST ITEM OF THE
SEASON.
WELL, HUNDREDS OF SHOPPERS CAMPED OUT OUTSIDE OF A WAL-MART
IN MICHIGAN THE OTHER NIGHT IN SUBZERO TEMPERATURES AND WHEN
THE STORE OPENED THEY RUSHED INSIDE ONLY TO FIND THERE WERE
NEVER ANY PLAY STATIONS INSIDE.
I KNOW, BUT THEY DISCOVERED SOMETHING EVEN MORE VALUABLE,
THE REAL PS5 WERE THE FRIENDSHIPS THEY MADE ALONG THE
WAY.
(LAUGHTER) >> AND THIS IS CRAZY.
PEOPLE WANT A PS5 SO BADLY THEY WOULD WAIT OUT IN THE COLD FOR
HOURS.
EVEN CRAZIER, AS I MENTIONED PS5 IN THIS MONOLOGUE FOR WEEKS NOW
AND WE STILL HAVEN'T BEEN SENT ANY.
IAN ACTUAL LEER SENT ME A TEXT THE OTHER DAY GOING DUDE, WE GOT
TO GET PS5 IN THE MONO MORE, WE ARE JUST GETTING KNOCK, WE'VE
BEEN SENT NOTHING.
>> EVERY TIME WE MENTION A COOKIE, 60 BOXES OF THEM SHOW
UP.
PLAY STATION FIVE, WE HAVEN'T EVEN GOT A PLAY STATION FOUR.
>> James: YEAH, IT'S ALMOST LIKE THEY DON'T NEED THE PRESS
BECAUSE IT'S SOLTD OUT.
THE WAL-MART DIDN'T HAVE THE PS5 IN STOCK BUT LUCKILY THEY DID
HAVE PLENTY OF CHRISTMAS-THEMED TOILET PAPER WITH, I'M SERIOUS,
CARTOONS OF SANTA RELIEVING HIMSELF INTO SOMEONE'S CHIMNEY.
>> WHAT?
IS THIS WHERE WE ARE AT NOW?
IS THIS WHERE WE ARE AT NOW.
THAT, SOMEONE DREW THAT.
IT WAS SOMEONE'S JOB TO DRAW THAT.
GE YOU WANT ANYTHING FOR DINNER.
>> NO, I WANT TO FINISH THIS AND THEN I'LL-- WHAT ARE YOU WORKING
ON.
>> I'M WORKING ON THE WAL-MART THING, YOU KNOW, THE SKETCH.
>> OH YES.
>> IT'S FOR TOILET PAPER, OH, OKAY, WHAT IS IT?
IT'S SANTA TAKING A [BLEEP] IN A CHIMNEY.
>> ST 2020.
>> James: SO YOU ARE A REALLY SUCCESSFUL CARTOONIST, WHY ARE
YOU DOING THIS?
>> YEAH, I KNOW, THIS IS WHAT I WENT TO UNIVERSE FOR, IT IS WHAT
I LEARNED ALL THIS DRAWING FOR.
>> YEAH, WE GOT NOTES BACK FROM WAL-MART THAT SAID THEY WANTED
RUDOLPH TO LOOK A LITTLE LESS EXCITED SO-- .
>> Reggie: NONPLUSSED.
>> I PUSHED BACK ON IT BUT THEY WERE LIKE IT SAY DEAL BREAKER SO
-- GOING TO PUT SOME SNOWFLAKES AT THE BACK JUST
TO-- DONE, WHAT'S FOR DINNER.
AND THIS WAS AN ALARMING FINDING.
ACCORDING TO NEW ENVIRONMENTAL RESEARCH, SO MUCH PLASTIC IS
SEEPING IN THROUGH THE WATER SUPPLY THAT ALL OF US MAY BE
CONSUMING THE EQUIVALENT OF ONE CREDIT CARD'S WORTH OF PLASTIC
PER WEEK.
YOU CAN'T CALL IT A CHIP CARD AND NOT EXPECT PEOPLE TO EAT,
YOU KNOW?
BUT IT'S TRUE, WE MAY ALL BE CONSUMING THE EQUIVALENT OF ONE
CREDIT CARD PER WEEK AND IF YOU ARE ANYTHING LIKE ME, WILL YOU
MAKE SURE THAT ONE CREDIT CARD IS A-- SAFFIRE, I DON'T EVEN
KNOW WHY WE DID THAT, I USED TO DO COMMERCIALS FOR SHAY SAFFIRE
AND THEY SAY-- GOT RID OF ME.
THEY REPLACED ME WITH KEVIN HART.
TRUE TOR STORY, KEVIN HART DOES T I'M PLEASED FOR HIM BECAUSE HE
NEEDS THE MONEY.
I DIDN'T EVEN KNOW.
I DIDN'T EVEN KNOW HI BEEN SACKED OFF BECAUSE I WATCHED
KEVIN HART'S DOCUMENTARY.
AND I SAW KEVIN HART NEGOTIATING A DEAL WITH CHASE BANK.
ON THE DOCUMENTARY, AND I WAS LIKE HEY, ABOUT YOUR CHASE.
>> I DON'T HAVE IT.
>> YOU DON'T KNOW WHO IT HAS GONE TO.
>> OKAY, YEAH, NO, GO ON.
>> NICE TO HIM TO KEAP BUSY, HE ONLY MADE A COMEDY SPECIAL AND
THREE WEB SERIES DURING THE PANDEMIC.
>> James: THAT'S THE THING, YEAH, YEAH, GONE, GONE.
CAN YOU BELIEVE THAT?
>> CAN'T BE THE FIRST TIME IT'S BEEN DOWN TO THE TWO OF YOU FOR
SOMETHING.
>> James: NO, ALWAYS, IT'S ALWAYS THE TWO OF US.
ALWAYS THE TWO OF US.
LIKE WE'RE GOING TO JAMES OR KEVIN HART.
THAT'S IT.
WE'VE GOT A SIMILAR, LIKE WHEN DID HE HIS DEAL WITH NIKE AND I
WAS IN THE RUNNING FOR THAT BUT I THINK MY AGGRESSIVE PITCH TO
LAUNCH AIR CORDENS DID NOT GO DOWN WELL.
>> IS KEVIN HART THE PAUL BLART?
>> James: NO, NO, SORRY, KEVIN HART-- -- NO, YOU'RE THINKING OF
KEVIN JAMES.
>> Reggie: YEAH.
>> James: KEVIN JAMES IS PAUL BLART, MALL COP, KEVIN HART IS
ONE OF THE MOST FAMOUS PEOPLE ON PLANET EARTH.
>> Reggie: OKAY.
>> James: THAT IS THE DIRCHESZ, YOU KNOW KEVIN HART,
HE HAS BEEN ON THE SHOW, WE DID DROP THE MIC WITH HIM.
>> THAT'S RIGHT, NOW IT IS STARTING TO HIT ME.
>> James: YEAH, THERE IT IS, THERE ST, THAT WILL HIT YOU AND
THEN IT WILL BE THE CHRISTMAS SPIRIT.
>> OKAY.
>> James: THAT'S IT AND FINALLY WE WANTED TO SHOW YOU
THIS.
A STRONG MAN DRESSED AS SANTA HAS JUST SET A NEW WORLD RECORD
FOR HEAVIEST SLEIGH PULLED.
THE MAN PULLED A FLATBED TRUCK LOADED UP WITH A SLEIGH,
REINDEER STATUES AND PRESENTS.
THE WEIGHT OVER 36,000 POUNDS.

UP WITH.
(LAUGHTER).
