>> jimmy: anthony bourdain. big news for you. you're a busy, busy, man. i just heard, this is true, you're moving to cnn? >> i'm moving to cnn, yes. >> jimmy: what is going on? what do you mean? >> oh, i mean, i'm not going to start doing election commentary. you won't be seeing me barbecuing in "the situation room." >> jimmy: what, you're going to hang with wolf blitzer? >> he does a mean brisket. [ laughs ] >> jimmy: what are you doing though for cnn? >> a travel show. what we know how to do. same team, same production company. >> jimmy: really? >> just a bigger world. i'm guessing that cnn can get us into a lot of the destinations that we've had trouble getting into. >> jimmy: like where do you want to get into? >> i'm obsessed with "apocalypse now" and "heart of darkness." i want to go up the congo river. libya sounds good to me. >> jimmy: oh, my god. are you crazy. >> cool places like that. >> jimmy: oh, my gosh. i love that you have the guts to do all of this stuff. i can't do half the stuff you do.

>> i was, you know, standing on my feet next to a frialator for most of my life. so, given the chance late in life to have a lot of fun and see the world, i'm going to do it. >> jimmy: yeah, but so this is -- when does this start? >> we should start -- around november we'll start filming. >> so, you have a little time off? are you going to take any time off? >> well, i'm still going to be doing some of the current shows, "layover," -- vacation. i'm taking a real vacation this year. first time in a long time. i've been on, sort of, arguably on permanent vacation for the last 12 years. but, mostly alone. this is the first sort of normal family vacation for any period of time, you know. to where i'm driving out, renting a place by the beach, you know. doing whatever normal people do, i'm going to try to do that. >> jimmy: i don't believe you. you're not normal. i mean, i don't see you -- what does anthony bourdain do to relax on vacation? >> i'm thinking you know, a hammock, beer, some books, splash around in a pool with my daughter, watch cartoons. i like watching cartoons with my daughter, that makes me happy. >> jimmy: you watch cartoons? >> way too conversant in

children's cartoons. like -- oh, god. some of them are awful. [ laughter ] you know, like when you can sing the songs, you know? >> jimmy: you know it's bad. >> you know it's bad. i'm watching "my little pony" with my daughter. >> jimmy: no, no, no, i don't see this happening. >> here's where it really gets bad. she leaves the room. [ laughter ] and i'm -- you know my wife comes in, "honey, it's time to go." and i'm like "wait, wait, i'm waiting to find out what happens to rainbow dash." [ laughter ] >> jimmy: rainbow dash. you're really into "my little pony." >> you know about bronies, right? >> jimmy: no. >> you know what a brony is? >> jimmy: can you say it on televsion? >> i've made some -- some remark on the show about -- i think it was eating a horse on the show. i made a -- a "my little pony" reference. suddenly i started to get some very disturbing tweets and stuff on social media from an outfit calling themselves bronies. this is a monster, a huge subculture of allegedly

heterosexual men who are really into "my little pony." >> jimmy: is that right? [ laughter ] gosh, america. >> really, really -- >> jimmy: really into it. >> into my little pony. >> jimmy: gosh, america is awesome, huh? [ laughter ] pretty awesome. this is of course from the crazy awesome mind of you, "get jiro!" it's a graphic novel. you're a best-selling author. this one's a little departure for you. you always grew up a comic book fan? >> i was a comic book nerd and collector. and in fact, at one point in my life i very much wanted to draw comic books. didn't work out. but again, late in life i'm getting to kind of live my little boy dream. so, i thought a really -- i wanted to do a very hyper foodie graphic novel with a lot of really lurid violence in it. >> jimmy: yeah. and that's what it is. i mean, this is only from the awesome brain of anthony bourdain. in here, like -- this is a -- in the future? >> kind of a dystopic alternate future los angeles where chefs are like crime lords and they

control the world as we know it. and i thought it would be interesting where, you know, gangs of armed chefs are slaughtering each other over whether or not you should put monterey jack cheese on a taco. [ laughter ] whether that's appropriate. >> jimmy: i would say it's not appropriate. >> i'm against, yeah. >> jimmy: i like that. i agree with a lot of stuff you do. but there's a lot of things you can learn lessons in here. like sushi etiquette. what are the things you should not do when you're eating sushi at a restaurant? >> the first thing i thought of in the book was wouldn't it be great if somebody goes in, sits down at a sushi bar and treats their sushi incorrectly? a big crime in a sushi bar, particularly a good one, is to take a big -- if you're one of these people who puts a big wad of wasabi into the soy sauce and mixes it up into a slurry, you're pretty much dead to the sushi chef now, he hates you. >> jimmy: really? >> and if you compound that by letting your nigiri, your sushi sort of sit there rice side down until the rice crumbles into the sauce. now, he'd like to kill you. i just want to imagine a world

in which the sushi chef actually did kill people for that. [ laughter ] >> jimmy: the guy orders the california roll. look, he cuts his head off. [ laughter ] with a knife. chop! it's fantastic. this is such a good read. it's really funny. it's really cool. anthony bourdain, "get jiro!" is available in comic book stores on june 27th and everywhere books are sold on july 3rd. stick around, japandroids perform next, you guys!
