-It's just always a delight to see you.
You were here 10 months ago. -Yes.
-And a very surreal thing happened,
which is, the day you were here,
police apprehended a suspect in the Golden --
the Golden State Killer, basically.
-They caught the Golden State Killer.
-And your -- your late wife had written a book about him.
-Yes. -I was actually on a book tour.
It was the -- we were in Chicago, my wife's hometown,
and we did the reading, and then went to bed.
And at 4:00 a.m., my phone --
Everyone's phone started pinging,
and we all met in the lobby.
And we're like, "He's been caught, I think."
And then, I was coming to do your show that night,
and I'm on the plane.
I think I sent an Instagram little selfie film,
going, "Well, I'm gonna go on 'Seth Meyers.'
I think they just caught this killer my wife was track--"
Like, I didn't know what the panel was saying,
'cause I was there to tell jokes and promote a show,
and suddenly, "We've caught a killer."
It was just weird.
I don't know how to segue into that.
So it was a very, very -- And when I was on the show,
if you watch that episode, you can see how sleep-deprived
and freaked out I was. -Yeah.
-'Cause I didn't -- I didn't know where --
And you were, like, "What are we gonna talk about?
How do we approach this?" -Yeah.
-It was very interesting. -Yes.
-And I -- It's nice now to have you --
How have the last 10 months been?
I mean, has it continued to be surreal?
-It's been -- well, weirdly enough, today,
as we're talking, this is the day
of the paperback release of the book.
And I wrote a new afterward that describes that day.
And it ends on this show,
talking about what I was just talking about,
which was, "How do I do a segment about a --"
Like, that's not -- That's not what a comedian
normally does on his talk-show segments.
-Yeah. -It's talking about --
-But I get mentioned in the paperback?
-Um... [ Laughter ]
All right. You know, it's weird.
There was, uh...
I think your lawyers didn't want you in there.
-Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. -So we had to...
[ Laughter ]
-You just had a birthday. You turned 50.
Congratulations. -I just turned 50.
[ Cheers and applause ] -How is it?
-Thank you. It's really --
Oh, no. Oh, no.
Oh, no. [ Laughing ]
-Not even waving. -It's, um...
You know, I don't mind turning 50.
What I mind is turning 50 in 2019.
-Okay. -That stinks.
Because the time to turn 50 was in the '50s.
-Uh-huh. -Because people were okay
with you going, "Oh, you're 50. You've had a kid.
Well, you just sit down and start to die.
Just relax, do a crossword puzzle,
slowly become racist, and then die."
[ Laughter ]
But in 2019, you turn 50, and people are like, "You're 50?
Well, get on your mountain bike, you silver fox.
Let's get going!" [ Laughter ]
"You've got decades.
We've got goji berries and alkaline water."
For my birthday -- At my birthday party,
my wife gave me a mountain bike with --
She made a poster going,
"Here's your mountain bike, you silver fox."
And now I am a -- I'm riding my bike around,
which is not a good look. [ Laughter ]
I mean, I don't really have --
I look like somebody shaved a baby panda
and put biking clothes on him, and I'm just kind of --
There should be carnival music playing
while I ride my bike around. [ Laughter ]
That's what it looks like. So, yeah.
I'm biking now. God help me.
-God love ya. -Thank you.
-The clip for "A.P. Bio" -- Full disclosure --
I'm one of the many producers on this show.
-And thank you for -- yeah. -I love watching it.
And Paula Pell, one of your co-stars --
-Good God.
-One of the funniest people in the world.
-Paula Pell is maybe the funniest person
I've ever hung out with in that --
'Cause she's a brilliant actress,
she's a great writer, and doing scenes with her,
she will riff -- constantly riff new lines
at the end of the scene --
I don't know when they're coming in --
and always busts me up.
Always -- That whole thing with the --
We were just supposed to fist bump,
and then she just started going, "Oh, I'll catch her."
[ Laughter ] She did that weird --
And then I kind of don't know what to do.
And then, there was one thing she said.
There's a -- Wait a minute.
She riffed this thing. I can't repeat it,
'cause it's so atrocious and filthy.
[ Laughter ] It involved --
It involved her breasts and syrup that --
She was at a pancake breakfast, and it's insane.
[ Laughter ]
But she added it at the end of the scene.
And instead of me just immediately cracking up,
'cause they can go, "Cut, let's do it again,"
I stupidly was like,
"I'm gonna keep it together and finish this scene."
But then I'm doing that weird
kind of talking when I'm choking.
So, it looks like I'm having a stroke, basically,
while I'm talking to her.
And then it went way longer. She is so funny.
And they give her --
The writers give her the weirdest stuff to do.
And then, she always... -Yeah.
-...amps it up to an even better level.
And I -- You and Lorne making sure
that Mike O'Brien's writing stays as weird as it does...
-You just stay out of the way. -How do you guys just --
-You just stay out of the way.
I mean, Mike O'Brien is truly one of the --
He's such a great creator, and it's a wonderful show,
and I'm very excited for it to come back.
