Our first guest is not only my friend,
but she starred on a little show called Friends.
Please welcome my friend, your friend, Courteney Cox.
Hi, there.
[CLAPS]
Hi, Courteney.
Hi.
How are you?
So you're here for the Mother's Day show.
We have-- can you see all the moms
that are watching right now?
Oh my God.
Hi, everybody.
Hi.
Yes.
Hi.
That's crazy.
I love it.
First time moms, what kind of advice do you have for them?
First time, OK.
Well, I had extraordinary heartburn.
So if you have that, Gaviscon is a good solution.
Sleep while you can.
And I would probably say when they get--
when you have the baby, be careful with the kind of bed
you buy them because Coco, she was
obsessed with a princess bed.
And I got her the nicest one.
It was the most comfortable.
And I literally have not seen her since.
That's all good advice.
Good, strong advice.
Anyway, it's a beautiful thing that's about to happen.
And then one day, we'll have a 15-year-old.
She's about to turn 16, right, Coco?
She turns 16 in June.
She's not little.
She's-- yeah, I know.
That's how we know how old we are
when the kids are like-- when we're getting to that age.
I judge by celebrity babies where
I am in terms of getting older.
But she's-- but she's a good one,
even though you said that you want her to play piano and sing
more than she really wants to.
Well, she gets mad at me-- oh, great, my phone's ringing.
She gets mad at me because she thinks I'm using her for posts.
And she's not wrong.
Right.
She's got a great voice.
She really does have a beautiful voice.
She has a gorgeous voice.
But she-- you run out of material.
So it's every now and then, I bribe her for a song.
Yeah.
May I say, Courteney, that you do seem
to be running out of material?
Thanks.
What do I do?
No.
I mean, at first, you weren't even on Instagram.
And now, you're doing just about anything with the whole--
the face thing, the extorted faces and the--
I like it.
You know how--
I like it.
--embarrassing I am?
I'm literally doing TikToks.
That's what we fight about.
Coco's like, oh my God, it's so--
oh, yeah, well, that was a good one.
[LAUGHS]
It's a young people's world.
I'm waiting for-- oh, oh, that is embarrassing.
Here's another thing.
I have better timing than that video.
Instagram needs to-- oh, look at him.
Instagram needs to work on their--
when you post something, it sometimes lags.
And I-- it shows that--
looks like my dancing isn't quite as good as it is kind of.
I know what you're talking about because sometimes I
dance with tWitch when he's dancing to break.
And it looks like I'm not dancing to the same song.
But there's a lag time.
So it does look like we're not dancing to that song.
That's right.
It's hard.
That's the anticipation that this quarantine is teaching us.
You have to know what the beat is two seconds before it
happens, then you're an excellent dancer
if you can anticipate the beat.
It's so funny.
Now, Johnny's not quarantining with you, right?
Didn't he have to go back to--
he left the country right before the quarantine.
He left.
He went to-- he was supposed to go to Switzerland to write.
And instead, he had to go to England first.
And then all of a sudden, it happened.
And they called a quarantine.
So I have not seen him in so long.
And you don't realize.
I mean, we spend a lot of time on FaceTime.
But now, it's like oh my God, I just miss his physical touch,
just all of it.
It's really-- it's been hard.
This is the longest time.
Yeah.
That's enough.
We don't need to know what you miss.
[LAUGHS] So let's talk about--
Just erase everything.
--let's talk about-- no, I understand.
I think that would be really hard,
especially you're in a relationship.
But you can't be with them because you're--
anyway, you started bingeing, binge watching Friends
because you really didn't remember it?
I know.
It's really sad.
But I didn't remember at all.
I was-- and people ask me all the time, will you do a quiz,
or let's play this game where see who
knows the characters the most.
I don't remember.
I do-- I remember the people.
I just-- and I remember specific things that happened.
But my memory is not great when it comes to fun times.
I only remember pain I think.
So I started watching.
I've been bingeing it.
It's really good, it turns out.
And the Thanksgiving episodes are my favorite.
And the first season-- well, I'll be honest,
I'm only on the first season.
But that's the Thanksgiving one where we all had the flashback.
And I was overweight Monica.
And I loved playing overweight Monica because I felt so free.
I could dance like you, just sit up and dance
and have no problem at all.
And I just-- I did love it.
Those are really good episodes.
Yeah.
No, it was a good show, it turns out, yeah.
But I understand-- so now, there was supposed to be a reunion.
And now, you're using it to raise money for the All
In Challenge that Leo and Robert De Niro started.
That's right.
Yeah, we were supposed to do the show
I think at the beginning of March or the middle of march.
And now, we don't know when we're doing it.
But we are raising--
we've raised a lot of money so far.
And you can still apply.
And you get to have you plus five friends
can come watch the show.
And that's the first time-- that's actually
will be the third time that we've all been in the same room
in the last 15 years.
But it'll be a lot more than just us in the same room.
We'll be doing fun stuff and talking, reminiscing.
Yeah.
And it gave you time to binge watch before you shoot it.
So you will remember things.
I'm going to finish all nine-- the next nine.
Yeah.
So the coronavirus--
I didn't realize this because we've texted back and forth.
But you actually had your friends
who were staying with you contract COVID.
Yeah, OK, so I've had two friends staying here.
We all-- we had actually-- we were all safe.
Everything was OK.
They left for three days.
And in those three days, they both got COVID.
And one was completely asymptomatic.
And the other, it took him down.
He had-- they came back to the house.
They didn't realize.
We were all here.
I mean, very close.
I mean, I've never been so close to--
I mean, I was right with him.
I didn't realize because we thought we were all safe.
And it turns out that he had to--
he had symptoms, three days later--
three days after that, he was in the hospital on a ventilator,
kidneys shut down.
This is a very young athletic guy.
And it's just crazy how it can hit some people.
And his husband is completely asymptomatic.
Now, my friend is out of the hospital.
And it was a miracle.
It really was.
But it touched home.
Wow.
It was scary.
Wow.
We're gonna take a break.
More with Courteney after this.
