--very funny.
And congratulations, that's your first Netflix special.
It is.
I'm happy to have my name on it as a tiny part of it.
And I'm just proud of you.
Well, I'm proud of you.
Well, thank you very much.
Congrats on your show.
Oh, thanks, yeah.
It's doing well.
So let's talk about this.
Jennifer told me about this project that y'all are doing
together.
Jen?
Aniston.
Yeah.
Yeah, Jen.
But I didn't know until she told me about it.
But tell everybody what you're doing with Jennifer Aniston.
Well, my wife and I are writing a movie, and Jen--
that's what she likes to be called.
Yes, I know.
She's going to be the first female president of the United
States and--
It gets better.
Yeah, and I'm the first lady.
So you're the first lady, and you're exactly this.
You don't change character.
That's correct.
You're this and you're the first lady.
Everybody's like, you should be president.
I'm like no, no, no, no, this is me doing the whole first lady
thing.
It's very funny.
And it's so much fun to write for Jennifer.
Yeah.
I cannot wait-- For Jen.
Right.
Yeah, it's going to be-- when she told me about it,
I was like, that is such a great idea.
She's perfect to be the president,
and it's hilarious that you're the first lady.
Yeah.
Thank you.
I can't wait to see it.
OK, so those little boys, Finn and Max,
they're almost two now, right?
Yeah, these are my roommates.
There they are.
Or there they are.
I don't know where anyone's look-- oh, hi.
They're adorable, and now they're speaking Spanish.
Yeah.
They--
They're happy about it.
Your audience loves Spanish.
Yeah.
I do not speak Spanish and nor does my wife,
but we have a nanny, and she only
speaks Spanish to the babies.
And it's really something.
We have no idea what they're saying.
And they're kind of at that age where some words aren't
perfectly spoken, and we're just sometimes like,
do you think that's Spanish?
But if we're in another room, we can
hear-- as soon as we leave the room they're just
speaking full on Spanish.
To each other?
And to the nanny.
They're like fully bilingual, it's the craziest thing.
That's incredible.
Don't you want to learn Spanish so you can talk to your kids?
They speak English as well.
I know.
I know, but--
But you should learn Spanish.
I have all the time in the world to just be learning Spanish.
You get one of those--
Why don't you learn Spanish?
No, I'm busy.
But you can get that Babble thing, where you like listen
to audio tapes and it's easy.
Well you get the Babble thing and you teach me.
No.
I tried and I'm not good.
I'm too old.
There's a part of your brain that shuts down and stops
learning languages and--
My brain shut down at 15.
What are they into besides Spanish?
What are they doing?
Only garbage trucks.
They are obsessed with garbage trucks.
Like when the garbage man comes down the streets?
Oh, yes.
And trash cans, and garbage-- their second birthday
is coming up and I think we're going
to have a garbage-theme party.
I want to see if I can get a trash can piñata made.
And my stepfather was like, Tig, why don't you
charter a garbage truck?
He was like, you know, people charter trucks--
or I mean, ships and planes.
You know, get a garbage truck to come over.
And then I was thinking of maybe even--
we're friends with all the garbage
men in the neighborhood.
And so I was thinking of paying one
to just come in the back fence and just toss
some garbage in the backyard.
Max and Finn would lose their minds.
So.
How did this happen?
What made them start becoming interested in garbage?
We're terrible parents.
Yeah.
At least they have an interest.
Some people don't have interests.
You've got a point.
It's nice to have a passion.
Yeah, it is.
No matter what it is.
All right, so, Tig--
And I have to say, this is--
we take a walk every morning and I was--
my hair was just off in every direction.
I was in slippers.
And then I saw a garbage truck go by
and I was like, a garbage truck.
And I just started pushing the babies
at like 50 miles an hour up the hill.
And Stephanie was like, look at yourself.
Just look at yourself.
And I was like, what?
The garbage truck!
We gotta get-- it's now my passion, too.
That's hilarious.
So Tig, who I love very much, we've become friends.
I keep thinking that you're trying
to hold my hand or something.
Are you trying to hold mine when I go like that?
Well, you're like, I love Tig, and then your hand comes over,
and I'm like, you know.
Well, let's hold hands then.
All right.
Quit trying to pull away.
All right.
I feel like you're uncomfortable.
No, not at all.
Your palm is sweating.
No, I think that's yours.
It is.
All right.
