-Look at that beard.
Look at that guy. -Wait. Oh!
What's going on, baby? -Oh!
Oh-ho-ho-ho. Look at that one.
-Hey, just -- just call me Black Moses.
-[ Laughs ]
-That's like a Rick Ross. That's like a --
Oh, man. That's a good beard, man.
Is that a quarantine beard?
-You know what? It can be classified as that,
but, Jimmy, when we broke for hiatus this year,
we actually wrapped the Friday before all hell broke loose.
My intent was just to travel the world,
playing golf for four months and grow my beard.
And [bleep] Then COVID happened,
so that nixed the golf and the traveling part.
So, I've just been growing my beard like I said.
And I was just gonna grow it
until I went back to work in August.
-Wow. So, you're doing everything but the golf.
-Everything. Golfing just opened back up
in California, so now I'm playing a couple times a week.
-Yo! Come on! How are they doing it?
You're not allowed to touch the pins, right?
Is that correct? -Yeah.
No, they have donuts in the bottom of the cup
with the flag still in them
so the ball doesn't go all the way in.
It's halfway out.
You don't touch the pins.
You grab your ball, wash your hands
if you got your disinfectant with you, and that's it.
But, yeah, we've been having fun.
Speaking of golf, I know you remember this.
-Wait. Oh, my -- wait, zoom in.
Wait. Oh, my gosh.
Dude, that's where -- Was that the first --
That's where we first met, right?
-That's where we first met. You in a [bleep] --
the thickest cardigan I've ever seen a golfer wear
in the desert, in 110-degree weather.
-[ Laughing ] -Well, no, hold on.
I showed you the wrong picture.
There you go, with the cardigan and the pipe!
-Oh, my God, the pipe! That's right!
I forgot I had a pipe going.
-Me, you, Corey Pavin and Thomas Gibson.
[ Both laugh ]
-Dude, I can't believe you brought that up.
'Cause I brought the Bob Hope Chrysler Classic
thing they gave to you. Oh, sorry.
-There you go, baby. -Here it is right here.
-This was the 49th -- This was the 49th year.
-That wa-- Dude. -2008.
-I can't believe that. I was gonna show you this.
I can't believe you have that.
-Look, and I was gonna show you this!
[ Both laugh ]
-Dude, I was so excited to play that thing.
I did not know it was gonna be 100-and-something degrees.
-Yeah. No, that was a great time, man.
That was a great -- Can you believe that?
It seems so long ago. I mean, even though it was
12 years ago, but it seems so much longer than that.
-It does, right? Because, well, we had so much fun.
We totally bonded and had a good time.
I remember this. This is what --
So it's like 12 years ago. So, I remember --
This is pre-kids, so I went around --
The whole reason I went to it, 'cause my wife's family
used to -- the Juvonen's, on her dad's side,
used to go to this Bob Hope Chrysler Classic every year.
And it was -- They lived in Palm Springs,
and they would go out, and they would have black-tie events
and dress up in gowns.
And it was just a really fun event.
And it was just like --
So, when I got the invitation to do it, I go, "I gotta do it."
-Yeah. -For my wife.
So, I did that, and I dressed up, I got the pipe.
But then, what I did was --
I don't know if you remember this -- I went to every house.
There's homes on the holes. -Yep.
-And I went to every house, and I'm like,
"Hey, what's to drink at the house?"
-I remember. -Dude.
-I remember. -By the 9th hole --
-We had a great -- We had a great time, baby.
Best 18 holes in four days.
So, what was that -- Best 72 holes of my life.
[ Both laugh ]
-I remember one time, we were, like, flying around the hole,
'cause you sank a birdie, and... -Yes, yes!
-...we were dancing around. We had so much fun, dude.
That was the greatest.
-Yes, it was. -I mean, I can't wait.
I gotta play with you again.
It's gonna happen, soon enough.
Hey, you look good, man.
-Thank you. -Are you working out?
-You know, I went vegan three months ago, man,
right before the outbreak. -You did?
-And so, lost 20 pounds now.
-Yeah, you look great, man. Oh, my gosh.
I mean, are you gonna keep losing weight?
-I am. You know what, man?
I -- you know, it's no secret, I'm a type 2 diabetic.
So my A1C level and glucose level
was just out of control at one point.
So, I had to increase my insulin two years ago.
And increasing my insulin,
I literally picked up 30 pounds almost overnight.
-No. -And so, I had been
walking around with that for the last year and a half,
almost two years.
Like, all of last season of "Black-ish,"
I was just looking at myself, just feeling disgusted.
Because I had done so well. I had got down to 215 pounds.
-Sure. -And so, I was just looking at
how I was starting to pick the weight back up.
And people on the street was like, "Aha!
I see you getting fat again.
Ha ha ha! You must be living good!"
And I was like, "Yo, I gotta stop this [bleep]"
And I -- right before the NAACP Image Awards this year,
at the end of February, I hosted.
I was like, "You know what?
Let me try to lose 10 pounds before the show
to take off the -- to offset the 10 pounds
that the camera's gonna add. -Yeah.
-So, I went vegan. I lost 8 pounds before the show.
And I was like, "Oh, okay. I'm feeling good."
You know, I've been vegan before.
So, I said, "Let me continue.
Let me just continue it until the end of the season."
And so that lasted another month.
And I was just like, "Oh, I'm feeling great.
So I'll just stick with it."
And here I am, 3 months later, 20 pounds lighter.
Feeling good. -You look great, man.
And you're going into a milestone birthday right now.
-I am, brother. I'll be 50 in August.
-Look at -- Look at you, though.
Come on. This is not what 50 looks like.
-Ah. -Remember when you were a kid?
-50 can look better, but it could look worse.
-[ Laughs ]
Do you remember being a kid
and hearing someone was 50 years old?
-I thought they were old as hell, Jimmy, at 50.
-Yeah. -And now that I'm 49 1/2 --
or, actually 49 3/4,
'cause August is just right around the corner.
I'm like, "Yo, I'm feelin' good."
You know what? 50, 40 years ago,
when we used to hear about it, was not the 50 today.
You know, it's a different lifestyle and all of that.
So, I'm excited about turning 50.
For my 50th birthday, my gift to myself,
I'm receiving a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame.
-Come on. -So, I was gonna get it
last year, but I was like, "Yo, I'm turning 50 next year.
Let me postpone it and have the ceremony on my 50th birthday."
Well, I couldn't get it on my 50th birthday,
which is August 15th, so I'm getting it done
on August 14th, the day before my birthday.
-Oh, perfect. -The day before I turn 50.
So, that was, like, my present to myself.
But who knows what the hell we're gonna be --
how we're gonna be living in August.
-Hopefully we'll be out on the streets,
and we'll be able to all celebrate you.
-I hope so, because you know what?
It's a hell of a milestone, and I want more than 10 people
around me to celebrate my star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame.
-Well, you can count -- if we have to,
you can count me in as a Zoom friend.
-[ Laughing ]
You got it, baby! Wearing that hot-ass cardigan.
And bring the pipe. -[ Laughs ]
-I can't believe you had that!
I was gonna surprise you just showing you this.
This money clip. -Oh, baby.
Bam, baby! -I love that you have that.
Oh, my gosh. -Nobody believes me.
Nobody believes me when I'm like,
"This is where Jimmy Fallon and I met.
And he wore the hottest cardigan with a smoking pipe."
