Well, guys, let's get to some news here.
TikTok just announced that all users under 18
will soon have their accounts automatically set to
a one-hour daily screen-time limit.
[ Crowd boos ]
A TikTok limit is rough.
Pretty soon, kids will be forced to watch
slightly longer videos on YouTube.
I mean that -- What is the world coming to?
But this is nice.
Facebook said, "If you need help making kids quit your app,
let us know."
Some political news.
Today, a bipartisan group of lawmakers
reintroduced a bill to make Daylight Savings Time permanent.
[ Cheers and applause ]
Man, if Biden gets this done,
there's no way he's losing in 2024.
I'm telling you. I have no idea what that is.
Get rid of that thing.
"It's for the farmers." Like, "No, it's not."
-No. -They go, "It's for kids."
You go, "No one knows why we're doing this."
An extra hour.
Right now, every kid's like, "Sweet.
We're gonna get an extra hour of TikTok.
Awesome!"
All they have to do is get Apple on board,
because whatever time my iPhone says it is, that's the time.
Hey, I saw that House Democrats are currently in Baltimore

Some more political news.
Today was the first big day of speeches at the
Conservative Political Action Conference, CPAC.
Of course, President Trump --
former president Trump is attending CPAC.
However, a lot of other top Republicans aren't.
But Trump said that's because...
Trump was like, "You can't repeat yourself.
That's why my campaign slogan is..."
"Don't repeat yourself. Don't do it."
Actually, Trump's excited to be there.
He actually spent all day in the lobby
signing copies of his classified documents.
-Oh. -Yeah, it was cool.
Switching gears, some entertainment news.

"What do you want?"
Did you guys see this?
Today, SpaceX launched a crew to the International Space Station
after the first attempt earlier this week was cancelled
due to a clogged filter.
Yeah, it's the first time a space agency
dealt with someone by calling in the pool guy.
"Trace, you want to take a look at this?"
"Do I gotta put my shirt on?"
"Hell no."
Yep, a clogged filter.
It's always fun when a launch delay
can be fixed by someone going...
Speaking of flight issues, I heard that
a Spirit Airlines plane had to make an emergency landing
after a battery in the overhead bin caught on fire.
Spirit was like, "Phew!
Good thing it wasn't one of our wooden planes."
Wow.
Yeah, the fire was either caused by a battery
or the pilot was playing with
firecrackers in the cockpit again.
They got to hire better people. Listen to this.
Dictionary.com just added over 300 new words.

Yeah, it's National Read Across America Day,
so I thought we could maybe go around
and each share a book recommendation.
-Yeah. -I'll go first, okay?
I love "Tomorrow, and Tomorrow, and Tomorrow"
by Gabrielle Zevin.
I highly recommend it. How about you, Tariq?
-I gotta go with good old "Fahrenheit 451."
-Oh.
-It's a classic dystopian tale of, you know,
the dangers of censorship.
-Oh yeah, that's a good one. That's a good one. Higgins?
-You know what? I like Tolstoy's "War & Peace."
I know it's long, but it's worth it.
-"War & Peace."
I've still got to check that one out.
What about you, James? -Oh, man!
Oh, my favorite book is
"Dr. Schmoyo's Freaky Froyo Factory" by Todd Nutbush.
This book has it all, Jimmy --
humor, romance, thrills, pure carnal sex...
[ Laughter ]
...frozen-yogurt recipes, and heartbreak.
I couldn't stop crying while reading it.
I thought to myself, "Is someone chopping onions?"
Sure enough, my friend Smooth Jeffrey
was cutting some Vidalia onions in the same room.
You see, I currently live with a roommate
because I lost most of my savings on NFTs.
But not those NFTs.
I'm talking...
[ Laughter ]
N-- Shut up.
Nice-fitting top hats.
[ Cymbal crash ]

they called in John Wick.
-Oh! ♪♪
-And, finally, three engineers broke a world record
after they made a paper airplane that flew almost 300 feet.
Right now, Spirit Airlines is like,
"Ah, why didn't we think of paper?!"
There is nothing better than surprising James
with cue cards during the show, a live show.
Thank you for being a good sport, James.
What a show we have for you tonight.
I love this guy. -I love this guy.

He's nominated for an Academy Award for his role in

I've been doing a lot of press for "That's My Jam."
"That's My Jam" -- season two premieres Tuesday.
I've been doing press. I've been doing a lot of
radio interviews and TV interviews and stuff like that.
And this morning, I was on one of our pal's,
"Elvis Duran and The Morning Show."
And I went on there -- I love him.
[ Cheers and applause ]
Hi, Danielle, hi, Gandhi.
A great crew over there.
And they wanted to play a game, and they said,
"This is such a dumb game that we're playing."
And I go, "I love dumb games. What is it?"
And it's called, "I'm thinking of a pasta."
[ Laughter ] That's the name of the game.
And I go, "Okay." And, so, the whole idea is,
Elvis was just thinking of a pasta, and I had to guess.
So I thought -- I said, "I want to take that game.
I want to play it on 'The Tonight Show,'"
and he goes, "You'd be out of your mind to take that game."
And I am out of my mind, so here we go.
We're gonna play the game.
[ Cheers and applause ] Let's do it.
So, I want to play the game.
Higgins, Tariq, Questlove, you want to play with me?
I'm gonna write down a pasta. -Okay.
-I'm thinking of a pasta, okay?
Eh-huh, mm-huh, mm-huh.
[ Laughter ]
Mm-huh, mm. -Wait a second.
-I don't want to give anything away.
All right. Now, here we go.
I'm thinking of a pasta. Questlove, what pasta --
Oh, how 'bout this? If you guess it right,
everyone in the audience gets a pint of
Tonight Dough Ben & Jerry ice cream.
[ Cheers and applause ]
I'm just saying!
You want to let these people down?!
[ Cheers and applause ] Come on, man.
Come on, dude!
All right. I'm thinking of a pasta.
-Man, that's a lot of pressure. -I'm thinking of a pasta.
Here we go. -Whoa.
-All right. And it falls on me to guess it.
-Well, we have you, Tariq, and then Higgins, yeah.
But I'm thinking of a pasta. -All right.
I'll go easy. I'll say rigatoni.
-Ooh!
-Not true. Not good, not good.
It is not rigatoni.
Thank you very much. Come on, focus up.
Tariq? [ Laughter ]
I am thinking of a pasta.
-Okay. Okay.
I'm gonna say, uh...
fusilli. -Ooh!
[ Audience "Oohs" ]
[ Laughter ]
[ Sad tuba ]
-What are you talking about? Fusilli?
You thought that's the pasta I'm --
-Because you're silly. I figured silly, fusilli.
All right, whatever, man. I don't know.
[ Laughter ]
-I'm thinking of a pasta!
Higgins, we've known each other for 25 years.
You are Italian. -Yes.
-You've been to Italy. -Yes.
-We've shared many a meal together.
I'm thinking of a pasta, and the audience
is getting ice cream if you guess it!
[ Cheers and applause ]
Higgins, I'm thinking of a pasta.
-I'm gonna say, since you've played this once before,
you probably did a fancy one like fusilli.
And I'm gonna say you're gonna go, like, every day --
I'm gonna say penne.
[ Audience "Oohs" ]
-Penne!
