11:36 pm
>> jimmy: oh, my goodness. hey. thank you so much, everybody welcome to "the tonight show." thank you so much for tuning in and watching our show. let's get to the news and jokes. well, guys, tonight, was the first and only vice presidential debate between mike pence and kamala harris in salt lake city, utah usually, vice presidential debates can be pretty boring so this year, they decided to spice things up and have it in utah when he heard the debate was in salt lake, mike pence was like, "ah, yes, sin city." [ laughter ] it was a big night democrats were hyping up the debate all day they were calling it the thrilla with vanilla with everything that's happened in the last few days, this was a pretty rough spot for pence. the first question the moderator asked was, so, how are things
11:37 pm
[ laughter ] yeah tonight's moderator was from "usa today." no one actually invited her. she just showed up outside the door with a continental breakfast. [ laughter ] of course, in light of the white house becoming a covid hot spot, new safety measures were taken for tonight's debate harris and pence were seated about 12 feet from each other, and separated by plexiglass. here's a photo of the stage. yeah that's not a debate stage. that looks like two bank tellers feuding with each other. [ laughter ] that looks like the exit of a barnes and noble don't go off don't go off i didn't steal anything. i just feel like i did i'm sure it's safe, 'cause if there's one thing we know about the virus particles, they always travel in a straight line at one point, pence breathed on the glass and then used his finger to write, "take me with you. and this is good
11:38 pm
everyone in the crowd at tonight's debate was wearing a a mask it was like a rose garden event, at the white house, only the exact opposite meanwhile, back in washington, as if there isn't enough going on at the white house right now, the entire place is infested with raccoons [ laughter ] yes. that's a fun decision for the white house staff. stay inside and get covid from trump, or go outside and get rabies from a raccoon. yep. officials said we spotted one, earlier, eating from a a dumpster and the reporters are like, we're still talking about the raccoon, right "mr. president mr. president. [ growling noises ] "don't touch him. don't touch him. don't touch him. don't worry. trump is taking care of it with our newest military branch, the raccoon force. right now, trump's only friends are the white house raccoons and the blue dinosaur he's been hallucinating since friday
11:39 pm
[ laughter ] "is that right, reginald he agrees." speaking of trump, he's been very busy at the white house. and i mean very busy to give you an idea, here are some of the tweets he sent in the last 24 hours. he was tweeting so much, his thumbs each had their own fevers yesterday afternoon, trump tweeted that he wanted to wait until after the election to sign a second round of covid stimulus relief. but then, a few hours later, he tweeted at nancy pelosi and said, "i'm ready to sign right now. are you listening, nancy?" pelosi was like, "hang on. i'm still going through all those blank papers that you signed over the weekend. "donald j. trump." yeah based on all these tweets, it seems like trump is feeling better but white house staffers aren't taking any chances apparently, everyone around trump is now dressed in full ppe. yeah life comes at you fast you know, a week ago, trump was at a rally
11:40 pm
now, the people around him are dressed like scientists in "e.t." yep. everyone goes into trump's room covered in plastic it's like going to see shamu and getting a seat in the splash zone. [ laughter ] you like the splash zone? guys, christmas is still a couple of months away. but it looks like the virus will make celebrating the holidays a little different this year. check it out >> santa claus will, still, make an appearance at the mall this year. but don't count on hugging or touching santa at some malls, santa will meet with families as he appears to sit inside a giant snow globe or behind plexiglass other mall operators are even offering zoom calls, instead of in-person visits the idea, to have a touchless experience with santa. >> jimmy: santa heard and was like, "if i wanted a touchless
11:41 pm
experience, i'd be home with mrs. claus." [ laughter ] that's right, meeting santa over zoom, which means all the kids will get to see santa's very magical studio apartment. also, santa behind plexiglass - basically, talking to santa is going to look like talking to a prison inmate. "i'm going to get you out of here, girl you stay strong. you did nothing wrong. okay brake lines were cut that's all." yep. when the news broke, everyone was upset. meanwhile, the first lady was like >> who gives a [ bleep ] about christmas stuff? >> jimmy: oh, here's something that we didn't need. i saw that dunkin' donuts and baskin robbins are teaming up for a fall-themed milkshake with munchkins doughnuts blended in
11:42 pm
check this out [ audience groans gosh i think it'd be healthier to sit on santa's lap actually, i think it would be healthier to sit on trump's lap. in boston, they call that juice. [ laughter ] how do you even eat that a straw? a spoon? alone? and finally, a former public library employee in austin was arrested for a pretty interesting crime. listen to this >> reporter: at a library in austin, texas, a former worker at the library is accused of stealing $1.3 million worth of printer toner, then, selling it online if convicted, he could face prison time. >> jimmy: $1.3 million in toner. that's like five cartridges. as if being caught wasn't bad enough, when he got home, he realized he had stolen the wrong kind "hp-925. what you got to be kidding me."
11:43 pm
also, how can a library that charges 50 cents for an overdue book have $1.3 million worth of toner?

>> jimmy: i love following you and one of the things that you said the best things you watched in quarantine was the beastie boys documentary that was -- that was great are you -- were you a big fan, growing up >> huge fan. i mean, i'll never forget it's so iconic to me when my brother got the license to ill tape. that's how old i am. it was the tape. and i knew how to, like, turn it around to rewind it to get right back to the beginning of the song on the other side because i didn't have the boombox that had rewind on it. >> jimmy: so you fast forwarded it? >> you just have to flip around and fast forward. >> jimmy: i used to do that. that's such a great reference. >> the best. and they just blew my mind, man. i mean, i'm still such a huge fan of ad rock and -- and they just -- i was like what is going on in the world outside of suburban texas? and spike jonze is one of my favorite filmmakers, so it was just like that meme of eating popcorn. like, i couldn't get enough. it could have gone on for two more hours >> jimmy: i love those guys so much >> me, too >> jimmy: i read somewhere that you used to write songs to them when you were a little kid do -- do you remember doing this
12:25 am
>> this is so humbling i -- i started writing poetry when i was seven or eight. >> jimmy: wow. >> and my first poem was called "kingdoms in conflict. it started with some light subject matter there just keeping it light. >> jimmy: seven years old. kingdoms in conflict >> and my older brother actually found it which, for me, was like obviously my biggest nightmare, at that time, because i was fully expecting him to just, like, lacerate me. >> jimmy: yeah read it for everybody. >> what brothers are supposed to do. and he read it and he was just like, "wow, okay, man. >> jimmy: this kid's deep. matt's on a different level. [ laughter ] >> go ahead. you go do -- you go have your kingdoms in conflict i'll be here with my gi joes when you're ready. >> jimmy: oh, that would be a great song. >> i think it should be the title of our jfk biopic it's going to be kingdoms in conflict >> jimmy: again, someone is watching this writing kingdoms in conflict. and i can't wait for you to be
12:26 am
in it because, honestly, when you win your oscar for it, you have to just -- you don't even have to say my name. you don't even have to say my name [ laughter ] just straighten your bowtie or something and i'll know it's for me i'll know it's for me. >> i'll just -- i'm going to just like bring up a picture of you and just put it in front of your picture walk on stage. >> jimmy: just any little winker >> no. i want you to do that, and then i'll know we had this forever. this bond. and we'll come on the show we'll talk about it. we'll show this clip that's the way it all works. last time, i think we talked, you were talking about the boys in the band on broadway. >> yes >> jimmy: it was a play that you guys revived and you actually won a tony. and you -- you're -- you're now in this film it's a netflix film with the exact same cast. >> yes >> jimmy: can you set up what it's about >> yeah. it's about this group of eight guys who all gather together for a birthday party at an apartment in new york in 1968. just pre-stonewall it's a group of eight gay friends and the arrival of an unexpected visitor slash interloper sort of throws the whole night into chaos and calls all the relationships with themselves and each other and society into question. and at the same time, it's, also, i think, really funny. so, it's got a little something for everybody.
12:27 am
>> jimmy: i loved it i thought it was fantastic it was well done and what a cast, too. >> i love those guys, man. we had the best time on broadway we were -- we were that cast that like came to the stage door early to hang out with each other, and hung out afterwards we had epic karaoke nights where i would get different glam-rock wigs for us to wear. and i think that sense of ensemble that you kind of earn, as you know there being on something like "snl" from doing the show live eight times a week, i think we're able to kind of bring that to the film >> jimmy: yeah it's good stuff. i love it so much. i want to show everyone a clip here are matt bomer and jim parsons in "the boys in the band." take a look at this. >> you in a funk because of the doctor >> christ, no. i was depressed long before i got there. >> well, this should pick you up
12:28 am
