>> seth: that's great. and you were at the white house correspondence dinner this weekend? >> fred: it was so fun. >> seth: it was so great. i think joel mchale just did a great job. >> fred: absolutely. >> seth: that's great. i love when you're here because i feel like when you're here, i learn something new about you every day. you're just one of the most fascinating people i've ever come across. >> fred: thank you very much. >> seth: you're very welcome. although i do think sometimes people watch and they might think, like, oh, i just put you on the spot and you're just making something up as you go. [ laughter ] which, i would never accuse you of because you're my friend and why would you mislead me, you know? [ laughter ] so what i heard is --and i don't know if this is true -- have you launched your own line of flavored vodkas? >> fred: i did. [ laughter ] >> seth: great. so you did you that this weekend? >> fred: i did. it's a sort of --there's like a potato flavored one. [ laughter ] >> seth: i think a lot of vodkas are made with potatoes so there's not -- they're all -- >> fred: right. but this is like fried potatoes that i crammed down to the bottom of the bottle with a

stick. [ laughter ] >> seth: gotcha. >> fred: so it's the true flavor of potato. and yeast and breads and just a lot of carbs just at the bottom of the bottle. [ laughter ] >> seth: so can you visually see it? is it like a bottle of vodka that looks like it has what sounds to me to be french fries at the bottom? >> fred: yes. exactly that. it's like a sediment. like a brownish, sort of yellowish sediment at the bottom. >> seth: now that i will say does not sound refreshing. and it seems like a lot of alcohol is just sort of marketed for being refreshing and whatnot. >> fred: yeah, but this is like my signature. do you know what i mean? this is more about like, putting my name on something. and it's more about that. and also it's got the real flavor of french fries. you know what i mean? like, it's more of like getting back to the potato. [ laughter ] >> seth: because you know you feel vodka has gotten away from its roots. >> fred: far, far away. >> seth: yeah. >> fred: just far away. >> seth: that's great. >> fred: yeah, i'd like to see that a lot more. >> seth: so now, if i'm at a bar in new york, i'm assuming it's in most bars, how do i order and what is it called? like, how would i order it? >> fred: ask for frankie's. >> seth: okay.

>> fred: it's called frankie's vodka made by fred. i know, i know. i know, i know. [ laughter ] i know, i know. it's frankie's vodka made by fred for you.

[ laughter ] but it's not to-go. that's just the name of it. >> seth: okay. [ laughter ] although it's weird, because when i order it, if i say "for you" it will sound like i'm talking to the bartender, but of course it is for me. >> fred: they'll know what it is. [ laughter ] >> seth: okay. well, congratulations. i'm so excited for you. really. >> fred: thank you. [ cheers and applause ] >> seth: um, a little housekeeping real quick. i don't know if you watched the show last week. i told the story, amy poehler and i were out to dinner like two weeks ago. we split the bill for dinner and we ended up with each other's credit cards. i returned hers with the money

for the things i had bought. she has not returned mine. every time i ask her to return it she sends me a photo of her holding it in, like a store. [ laughter ] i'm going to see her tomorrow night at a charity event, so hopefully we'll sort everything out. it was a very quiet weekend on the credit card front. and i know this is a thing that people only say in movies, but i actually thought it for the first time. it was almost too quiet. [ laughter ] i was a little worried. we talked on this show, we've had a lot of, fred and my old friends from "snl" have been on. we talked about doing something called "second chance theater" where old "snl" cast members will come out and they'll talk about a sketch that either got cut at dress rehearsal or never went past the read-through table. and we're gonna give them a chance to mount it here on our show, and will forte is booked for our first "second chance theater" may 13th, and the world will for the first time see jenjamin franklin, a sketch that will forte -- [ cheers and applause ]

a sketch that will forte wrote and submitted probably five to 11 times at "snl." and did i hold the position that i didn't think it was a sketch we should do on the show. but now i'm going on give him a chance and we'll give the audience a chance to see who was right, myself or will forte. and if jenjamin franklin was in fact something that america was robbed of jenjamin franklin. and my last thing, which was an inconvenience that my wife and i have been dealing with for awhile with our cable, but it's very specific. and last night we were so excited to watch "game of thrones," but we were also worried because this is a thing that has been happening for over a year, which is on our hbo, "game of thrones" is in spanish. hbo is not in spanish, because we double checked. we watched the show before it. it's not in spanish. and after it's not in spanish. and we've gone through the spanish language hbo hoping it would be the english "game of thrones" and it's also spanish. [ laughter ]

and it's very --it's so -- it's actually more thrilling in an episode of "game of thrones" watching to see if we have the spanish one or not. because you don't know during the opening song. the song's the same in english and spanish because there are no lyrics. it's like, "da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da." that's the same in english and spanish. and you'll have to excuse me, 'cause my spanish isn't great, but basically we know we have the wrong one when all of a sudden "game of thrones" comes over the screen and the voice over goes -- [ speaking in spanish ] [ laughter ] [ applause ] i'm like, oh man. [ applause ] we have spanish "game of thrones." so i'm a day behond on "game of thrones." i have to wait to watch it on on demand or something. so we have, you guys, "game of thrones" or not, we have a great show for you tonight. from "the mindy project," mindy kaling is here.

[ cheers and applause ] and we will have music from young the giant. [ cheers and applause ] so i don't know about you guys, but recently i've been hearing a lot in the news about the issue of net neutrality. and it's a bit of a complicated issue. but basically, it's about being able to access internet content without limitations imposed by your service provider. and while many people are confused by the issue, i actually think i can explain it pretty quickly and accurately. in fact, ben! can you come out here, ben? all right, everybody please, give it up for ben. [ cheers and applause ] ben is one of the writers on the show. can you help me out tonight, ben? >> sure, seth. i'm always happy to do anything you force me to do. >> seth: okay, great. [ light laughter ] well, i bet i can explain net neutrality to our audience faster than you, ben, can open this blister pack of headphones. [ laughter ] the only catch, ben, is that you

can only use your hands. no scissors. do you think you can beat me? >> i do not. >> seth: are you ready? [ laughter ] ready, set, go. ♪ net neutrality is the idea that you should have the freedom to access web content without a restriction. however, internet service providers contend that they have the right to set up a so-called fast lane, where they charge companies extra to transfer large files like movies or video games. and a free full lane for less complicated files like pictures of your dog wearing heart-shaped sunglasses. it also means that internet companies can make their own content free, easy and fast while making their competitors' content expensive, difficult and slow. in fact, verizon is facing allegations they've been slowing access to netflix. so if you thought netflix couldn't get any slower, you're wrong. ben, hang on a second. ben, how are you doing over here? >> it's coming. it's not there. it's like -- >> seth: well, what if i gave you some scissors? would that help, ben? >> yeah. that would help a lot. >> seth: okay, great. well, here are five. hit it. [ laughter ] for a while it seemed like the fcc wasn't into that. but last january, it was ruled that the fcc actually has no authority to regulate the way internet companies determine service. the reason the story is in the news now is that last month the fcc -- [ taking very fast ]

[ cheers ] so that's basically what net neutrality is. how did you do, ben? [ cheers ] [ light laughter ] >> it's not about who won or lost. [ laughter ] >> seth: but i won, right? >> yeah, you did. >> seth: well, thank you so much, ben. >> can i keep the scissors and headphones? >> seth: you bet, buddy!
