( CHEERS AND APPLAUSE ) >> JAMES: GOOD EVENING, LADIES

AND GENTLEMEN, WELCOME TO THE "LATE LATE SHOW."

HOPE YOU HAD A NICE FRIDAY.

WE HAVE A FUN SHOW PLANNED FOR YOU TONIGHT.

WE'LL BE CHATTING WITH THE DELIGHTFUL JEREMY STRONG.

THEN, WE HAVE A PERFORMANCE FROM SUPER M.

YOU DON'T WANT TO MISS IT.

BUT FIRST, WE HAVE TO TALK ABOUT THAT FINAL PRESIDENTIAL DEBATE.

DID YOU GUYS WATCH LAST NIGHT?

REGGIE, DID YOU SEE IT?

>> Reggie: I DID.

>> James: YEAH?

WHAT DID YOU THINK?

>> Reggie: IT WAS ALARMINGLY MELLOW.

>> James: IT WAS.

YOU KNOW WHAT I THOUGHT IT WAS LIKE?

IT REMEANED ME OF A TIME THAT WE WERE GOING, I THINK ABOUT 13,

AND WE WERE GOING TO MY AUNTIE MARILYN'S AND I HAD BEEN QUITE

BADLY BEHAVED THE LAST TIME WE WERE THERE, RIGHT, AND I CAN

REMEMBER SO VIVIDLY, AND I ONLY REMEMBER IT WATCHING THE DEBATE

MY MOM GOING, NOW, NO MORE OF WHAT HAPPENED LAST TIME.

DO YOU UNDERSTAND?

YOU'RE ON YOUR BEST BEHAVIOR.

ANY MESSING AROUND, ANY CHATBACK, ARGUING, FIGHTING,

THAT'S IT, WE'LL JUST GO.

DO YOU UNDERSTAND?

I SAID, YES.

AND THE WHOLE TIME I WAS THERE, I WAS, THANK YOU, AUNTIE,

MARILYN.

AUNTIE MARILYN, IS THERE ANY CHANCE I COULD HAVE A CUP OF

TEA?

THANK YOU, AUNTIE MARILYN, I REALTY APPRECIATE IT.

THAT'S WHAT THE TWO OF THEM LOOKED LIKE ON THE STAGE.

THEY'D BOTH BEEN TOLD OFF.

>> Reggie: YEAH.

>> James: I REALLY DON'T KNOW WHO THAT DEBATE WAS FOR.

MORE THAN 47 MILLION AMERICAN VOTERS HAVE ALREADY VOTED.

WHO HASN'TMADE THEIR MIND UP?

I THINK PEOPLE ACTUALLY VOTED EARLY JUST SO THEY DIDN'T HAVE

TO WATCH THAT FINAL DEBATE.

WATCHING THE AT THE BAIT?

NO, I'VE SENT MINE IN.

I'LL BE WATCHING THE GIANTS-EAGLES GAME.

HAVE A GOOD ONE.

IT WAS FOR THE ONE REMAINING UNDECIDED VOTER.

I CAN TELL YOU HIS NAME IS CRAIG, HE LIVES IN DENVER, AND

FUNNY FACT ABOUT CRAIG, HE IS AN (BLEEP).

( LAUGHTER ) LET'S TALK ABOUT THE DEBATE.

IT STARTED OUT PRETTY CIVIL WITH BOTH TRUMP AND BIDEN STAYING ON

TOPIC.

THE FIRST SUBJECT WAS THE CORONAVIRUS EPIDEMIC WHICH LED

TO THIS EXCHANGE -- >> WE'RE ABOUT TO GO INTO DARK

WINTER, A DARK WINTER, AND EHE HAS NO CLEAR PLAN AND THERE'S NO

PROSPECT THAT THERE'S GOING TO BE A VACCINE AVAILABLE FOR THE

MAJORITY OF THE AMERICAN PEOPLE BEFORE THE MIDDLE OF NEXT YEAR.

>> PRESIDENT TRUMP, YOUR REACTION, HE SAYS YOU HAVE NO

PLAN.

>> I DON'T THINK WE'RE GOING TO HAVE A DARK WINTER AT ALL.

>> James: THESE GUYS ARE SO EMO.

DARK WINTER SOUNDS LIKE AN "AVENGERS" MOVIE OR A SEQUEL TO

"THE HUNGER GAMES" THAT WILL NEVER BE IN THEATERS BECAUSE TO

HAVE THE DARK WINTER.

( LAUGHTER ) IT'S ACTUALLY GOING TO BE A

FAIRLY WELL LIT WINTER BECAUSE WE'RE ALL GOING TO BE STUCK

INSIDE.

FOR ANY YOUNGER VIEWERS, WHEN I SAY WELL LIT, I DON'T MEAN THE

WAY YOU MEAN LIT.

( LAUGHTER ) YOU KNOW, TIM KNOWS.

( LAUGHTER ) TIM'S THE POINT REFERENCE

WHENEVER I WANT TO GO, TIM, ONE OF THE YOUNG HIP AND GROOVY

GANG.

AND HE'LL COME BACK GOING, OH, HE'S, LIKE, FLOSSING IN THE

CORNER AND -- ( LAUGHTER )

AT ONE POINT, PRESIDENT TRUMP WENT ON THE ATTACK AND ACCUSED

BIDEN OF HIDING FROM COVID IN HIS BASEMENT.

>> WE'RE LEARNING TO LIVE WIT.

WE CAN'T LOCK OURSELVES UP IN THE BASEMENT LIKE JOE DOES.

HE'S OBVIOUSLY MADE A LOT OF MONEY SOMEPLACE, BUT HE HAS THIS

THING ABOUT LIVING IN A BASEMENT.

PEOPLE CAN'T DO THAT.

BY THE WAY, I, AS THE PRESIDENT, COULD DON'T THAT.

I'D LOVE TO PUT MYSELF IN THE BASEMENT OR IN A BEAUTIFUL ROOM

IN THE WHITE HOUSE AND GO AWAY FOR A YEAR AND A HALF UNTILT IT

DISAPPEARS.

>> James: YEAH, WE WOULD LOVE IT, TOO!

IMAGINE TRUMP DISAPPEARING LIKE THAT.

AFTER HE SAID THAT, EVEN MELANIA LOOKED UP FROM HER MAGAZINE.

( LAUGHTER ) TRUMP SAID HE'D LOVE TO HIDE IN

THE BASEMENT FOR A YEAR.

BUT I GUESS HE'LL HAVE TO MAKE DUE WITH HIDING ON A GOLF COURSE

FOR BASICALLY THREE YEARS.

( LAUGHTER ) NOW, THE NIGHT STARTED OFF A

LITTLE SLOW, BUT THEN JOE BIDEN REALIZED EXACTLY WHO HE IS.

>> HE'S A VERY CONFUSED GUY.

HE THINKS HE'S RUNNING AGAINST SOMEBODY ELSE.

HE'S RUNNING AGAINST JOE BIDEN.

I BEAT ALL THOSE OTHER PEOPLE BECAUSE I DISAGREED WITH THEM.

JOE BIDEN HE'S RUNNING AGAINST.

>> James: JOE BIDEN.

BIG BABY B.

THE BIG MAN.

THE SULTAN OF SLEEP.

COME ON, MY GUY!

EITHER JOE BIDEN FOUND HIS FIGHTING SPIRIT OR HE FORGET

THAT HE'S JOE BIDEN, BUT EITHER WAY, I'M PUMPED!

AT ONE POINT, THOUGH, TRUMP WENT AFTER BIDEN'S SON, HUNTER, AND

IMPLIED THAT BIDEN HIMSELF WAS INVOLVED IN SOMETHING UNETHICAL.

>> TO EVEN HAVE A STATEMENT THAT WE HAVE TO GIVE 10% TO THE BIG

MAN.

YOU'RE THE BIG MAN, I THINK.

I DON'T KNOW, MAYBE YOU'RE NOT.

BUT YOU'RE THE BIG MAN, I THINK.

>> James: THIS DOESN'T MAKE SENSE.

ANYTIME ANYONE -- THE ONLY TIME ANYONE USES THE PHRASE BIG MAN

IS IF THEY FORGET SOMEONE'S NAME.

YEAH, HOW YOU DOING, BIG MAN, BIG FELLA, TIM, REGGIE, BIG

( BLEEP ) PLAYER.

( LAUGHTER ) I DON'T THINK JOE BIDEN IS THE

BIG MAN.

NO ONE LOOKS AT JOE BIDEN AND CALLS HIM THE BIG MAN.

IF I WAS GOING TO CALL HIM THAT, I WOULD CALL HIM, LIKE, SLICK,

NIGHT TIGER, YOU KNOW WHAT I MEAN?

( LAUGHTER ) >> Reggie: THAT'S GOOD.

>> James: TRUMP TRIED TO PORTRAY HIMSELF AS BEING TOUGH

ON RUSSIA SAYING THE UKRAINE ASKED FOR WEAPONS TO DEFEND

ITSELF FROM RUSSIA BUT OBAMA AND BIDEN GAVE THEM SOMETHING ELSE

INSTEAD.

>> I SOLD WHILE HE WAS SELLING PILLOWS AND SHEETS, I TOLD TANK

BUSTERS TO UKRAINE.

THERE HAS BEEN NOBODY TOUGHER ON RUSSIA THAN DONALD TRUMP.

>> James: AND IF YOU'RE INTERESTED ON PILLOWS AND SHEETS

IT'S AVAILABLE AT HIS NEW OUTLET STORE BED, BIDEN AND BEYOND.

( LAUGHTER ) ONE OF THE BIG JAW DROPPING

MOMENTS TO HAVE THE NIGHT IS WHEN TRUMP SAID THIS.

>> NOBODY HAS DONE MORE FOR THE BLACK COMMUNITY THAN DONALD

TRUMP, AND IF YOU LOOK, WITH THE EXCEPTION OF ABRAHAM LINCOLN,

POSSIBLE EXCEPTION, BUT THE EXCEPTION OF ABRAHAM LINCOLN --

>> James: WOW.

THE HUMILITY.

IT'S A TOSSUP, ABRAHAM LINCOLN ENDED SLAVERY, DONALD TRUMP --

MET KANYE THAT ONE TIME.

( LAUGHTER ) YOU KNOW, TRUMP SAYS NOBODY HAS

DONE MORE FOR THE BLACK COMMUNITY, AND YOU CAN SEE THIS

BY HOW MUCH THE BLACK COMMUNITY COMES OUT TO SUPPORT TRUMP AT

HIS RALLIES.

( LAUGHTER ) BUT TRUMP DIDN'T START THIS.

A LITTLE WHILE LATER HE HAD THIS TO SAY.

>> I AM THE LEAST RACIST PERSON.

I CAN'T EVEN SEE THE AUDIENCE BECAUSE IT'S SO DARK, BUT I

DON'T CARE WHO'S IN THE AUDIENCE, I'M THE LEAST RACIST

PERSON IN THAT ROOM.

>> James: THAT ROOM MUFFIN PRETTY DARK BECAUSE HE COULD

UPPT SEE THE AFRICAN-AMERICAN MODERATOR TEN FEET IN FRONT OF

HIM.

THE LEAST RACIST PERSON IN THE ROOM.

THAT WOULD ONLY BE TRUE IF HE WAS IN A SINGLE-STALL BATHROOM.

DONALD TRUMP, JR. WAS AT THE DEBATE MEANING DO DONALD TRUMP

ISN'T EVEN THE LEAST RACIST PERSON IN THAT ROOM.

THAT'S WHAT PEOPLE WHO ARE RACIST DO, THEY COMPARE HOW NOT

RACIST THEY ARE.

THEN THEY GOT INTO THE ISSUE OF CLIMATE CHANGE, AND TRUMP

PAINTED A PICTURE OF...

SOME BIZARRE ARCHITECTURE.

TAKE A LOOK.

>> WHEN HE SAYS BUILDINGS, I WANT TO TAKE THE BUILDINGS DOWN█

BECAUSE I WANT TO MAKE BIGGER WINDOWS INTO SMALLER WINDOWS.

IF YOU HAD NO WINDOW, IT WOULD BE A FUNNY THING.

>> JAMES: I GOT TO HAND IT TO TRUMP.

THAT'S A FUNNY IMAGE.

BIG BUILDING, LITTLE WINDOWS-- THAT'S JUST CLASSIC COMEDY.

BUT THERE'S A VERY SIMPLE REASON WHY TRUMP IS AFRAID OF TINY

WINDOWS.

THE MOST COMMON PLACE YOU FIND THEM IS IN A PRISON.

TINY WINDOWS?

>> Reggie: JAIL.

>> James: THAT'S RIGHT, IN JAIL, IN PRISON.

REGGIE, I WILL GIVE YOU $100 IF YOU CAN EXPLAIN WHAT TRUMP WAS

TALKING ABOUT.

>> Reggie: I THINK, UH, HE'S TALKING ABOUT IN THE '80s,

WHEN THERE WAS A MANDATE BY FEDERAL LOCAL INSTITUTES SUCH AS

SCHOOLS TO MAKE THEM MORE ENERGY EFFICIENT, THEY TOOK AWAY

PROBABLY 60% TO 70% OF THE WINDOW SIZE, AND IT WAS VERY

TINY AND KIND OF DEPRESSING AND NOW WE SEE A REVERSAL ON THAT

TREND.

( CHEERS AND APPLAUSE ) >> James: HERE'S THE THING

( CHEERS AND APPLAUSE ) >> James: HERE'S THE THING

ABOUT WHAT YOU JUST SAW, RIGHT, NUMBER ONE, REGGIE WATTS,

SMARTEST GUY IN THE ROOM AND, NUMBER TWO, NOT ONE OTHER PERSON

IN THIS ROOM KNOWS WHETHER THAT'S RIGHT OR NOT.

( LAUGHTER ) AND WHAT WE'VE ALL DONE IS GO --

( LAUGHTER ) SOUNDS CONVINCING.

TRUMP THEN HAD THIS TO SAY ABOUT WIND.

>> WE'RE ENERGY DEPENDENT.

I KNOW MORE ABOUT WIND THAN YOU DO.

>> James: OKAY, EASY THERE CAPTAIN PLANET.

YOU KNOW WHY TRUMP DOES KNOW MORE ABOUT WIND?

FULL OF HOT AIR!

HIT ME, GUILLERMO!

>> A THERAPEUTIC, I GUESS THEY'D CALL IT, SOME PEOPLE WOULD SAW

IT'S A CURE.

>> YES, BUT THAT'S WHAT A WRONG PERSON WOULD SAY.

STOP QUOAGHT PEOPLE WHO ARE WRONG.

>> WE HAVE NO CHOICE, WE CAN'T LOCK OURSELVES UP IN A BASEMENT

LIKE JOE DOES.

>> WHAT?

HE HAS THE OOBILITY TO LOCK HIMSELF UP.

I DON'T KNOW, HE'S OBVIOUSLY MADE A LOT OF MONEY SOMEPLACE.

>> WHAT ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT?

HAVING A BASEMENT IS NOT A SYMBOL OF WEALTH, YOU MAINIA NOT

SAY LIKE A GOLD PENTHOUSE APARTMENT.

>> BUT HE HAS THIS THING ABOUT LIVING IN A BASEMENT.

>> NO, HE DOESN'T!

BY THE WAY, I TAS THE PRESIDENT COULDN'T DO THAT.

I'D LOVE TO PUT MYSELF IN THE BASEMENT.

>> SO WOULD I.

THIS WEEK YOU CALLED DR. FAUCI A DISASTER.

>> TIME TO BUILD BRIDGES, LET'S GO.

>> I THINK HE'S A DEMOCRAT, BUT THAT'S OKAY.

>> BUILD THEM.

NOBUILD THEM!

>> WHEN JOE SAYS THAT I SAID ANTHONY FAUCI SAID --

>> SORRY, WHAT NOW?

ANTHONY SAID, IF YOU LOOK BACK, RIGHT WORDS -- THIS IS NO

PROBLEM, THIS IS GOING TO GO AWAY SOON.

HE'S ALLOWED TO MAKE MISTAKES.

>> THIS IS WHAT YOU SAY, YOU SAID IT SEVEN MINUTES AGO!

>> WHAT WOULD YOU YOU DO IF THOSE PEOPLE HAVE YOUR HEALTH

INSURANCE TAKEN AWAY.

TWO MINUTES UNINTERRUPTED.

>> FIRST OF ALL I'VE DONE SOMETHING THAT EVERYONE THOUGHT

IS IMPOSSIBLE.

>> BANKRUPT A CASINO, TURN AMERICANS OFF BEEF STEAKS.

>> I COULD HAVE GONE THE OTHER WAY.

>> BECAUSE EVERYBODY IS DICK VAN DYKE KICKING TOGETHER THEIR

HEELS.

>> DO YOU UNDERSTAND WHY THESE PARENTS FEAR FOR THEIR CHILDREN.

>> YES, I DO.

YOU GO 'DO.

NO YOU -- OKAY, THAT IS WHAT I TOLD YOU TO SAY, OKAY, FINE.

>> NO MORE THAT IS DONE MORE FOR THE BLACK COMMUNITY THAN TRUMP.

>> OH, MY GOD SOMEHOW IT SOUNDS WORSE EVERY TIME YOU SAY IT.

>> WHAT DO YOU SAY TO AMERICANS WHO SAY THAT KIND OF LANGUAGE

FROM A PRESIDENT IS CONTRIBUTING T A CLIMATE OF HATE AND RACIAL

STRIVE.

>> THE FIRST TIME I EVER HEARD OF "BLACK LIVES MATTER," THEY

WERE CHANTING BIGS IN A BLANKET TALKING ABOUT POLICE.

>> IS THIS YOU DOING MORE GOOD MORE THE BLACK COMMUNITY THAN

ANYONE.

>> PIGS, PIG.

STOP SAYING PIGS.

I SAID THAT'S A HORRIBLE THING AND THIS THEY WERE

MARCHING DOWN THE STREET.

>> YOU'VE JUST USED LANGUAGE TO INCITE RACIAL DIVISION BY

MISINTERPRETING THE "BLACK LIVES MATTER" MOVEMENT AND INCITED

RACIAL DIVISION.

THAT IS NOT IDEAL.

>> I DON'T CARE WHO'S IN THE AUDIENCE, I'M THE LEAST

RACISTPERSON IN THIS ROOM.

>> YOU CAN'T MEASURE RACISM JAM FOR BRAINS.

XENOPHOBIA DOESN'T BECOME IN UNITS.

IF YOU'RE 1% RACIST YOU'RE RACIST!

>> ELECTION DAY IS NOVEMBER 3.

DON'T FORGET TO VOTE.

HOW ARE YOU, SIR?

ARE YOU WELL?

>> YEAH, I'M GOOD, MAN.

I'M HAPPY TO BE HERE WITH YOU.

>> James: I'M INCREDIBLY HAPPY, AND I THINK PEOPLE WOULD

BE SHOCKED TO KNOW THIS, THIS IS YOUR FIRST EVER TELEVISION

INTERVIEW.

>> THAT'S TRUE.

IT'S UNAVOIDABLE, JAMES, AND I'VE REALLY JUST BEEN WAITING

FOR YOU TO CALL.

YOU KNOW, THIS IS MY FIRST EVER TELEVISION INTERVIEW.

IT MIGHT BE MY LAST.

SO NO PRESSURE.

JUST GOT TO SAY, JUST ON THIS ALONE, I LOVE TALK SHOW JEREMY

STRONG, DON'T YOU?

( CHEERS AND APPLAUSE ) THE LOOK IS STRONG.

I'M SO HAPPY YOU'RE HERE.

WE MET AT THE EMMYS LAST YEAR, AND I BADGERED YOU AND TOLD YOU

WHAT A HUGE FAN OF "SUCCESSION" I WAS, AND I REMEMBER SAYING TO

YOU, YOU WAIT, NEXT YEAR, I'M TELLING YOU NOW -- AND YOU, OF

COURSE, WERE VERY HUMBLE AND SAID, I DON'T KNOW, AND THEN

LAST MONTH YOU WIN BEST ACTOR AT THE EMMYS FOR "SUCCESSION," AND

IT WAS RICHLY DESERVED, IT REALLY REALLY WAS.

LIKE, I CANNOT TELL YOU HOW GREAT THAT SHOW AND YOUR

PERFORMANCE IS.

BUT I'M INTERESTED TO KNOW WHAT IT WAS LIKE FOR YOU BECAUSE

OBVIOUSLY THE NOMINEES WERE ZOOMING IN FROM ALL AROUND THE

WORLD.

I DON'T KNOW IF THERE WOULD EVER BE ANOTHER EMMYS LIKE IT.

TELL US ABOUT THE MOMENT WHERE YOU HEARD YOUR NAME CALLED OUT

AND YOU REALIZED YOU WON.

WHAT WAS THAT LIKE?

>> IT WAS -- I THINK -- YOU KNOW, I WAS A BIT AMAZED, TO BE

HONEST.

THERE'S SO MUCH, AS YOU KNOW, JUST INCREDIBLE WORK ON

TELEVISION RIGHT NOW, AND, YOU KNOW, IN THE CATEGORY THAT I WAS

IN, AND, YOU KNOW, EVERYWHERE ON TELEVISION.

SO, YOU KNOW, IT WAS -- IT WAS A SORT OF -- IT WAS AN AMAZING

MOMENT.

AND A BY CZAR WAY OF IT HAPPENING.

>> YEAH, BECAUSE I SORT OF FELT LIKE YOU DIDN'T HAVE THAT.

ANY OF THE PEOPLE WHO WON DIDN'T HAVE THE SORT OF 15 OR 20

SECONDS TO GATHER THEMSELVES AND WALK UP TO THE STAGE AND GIVE A

TROPHY.

IT'S LIKE YOU WON, SPEAK, NOW!

>> YEAH, AND, YOU KNOW, I COULD HAVE REALLY USED THAT 30

SECONDS' WALK UP TO THE PODIUM TO SORT OF ASSEMBLE MYSELF A

BIT.

BUT, YOU KNOW, WHAT WAS KIND OF WONDERFUL ABOUT IT WAS HOW

INTIMATE THE WHOLE THING BECAME.

>> James: SURE.

MY WIFE AND MY FRIENDS WERE IN THE NEXT ROOM, AND, YOU KNOW,

THERE WAS THE DUDE IN THE HAZMAT SUIT IN THE HALLWAY WITH THE

EMMY, AND HE HANDED IT TO MY WIFE, AND SHE BROUGHT IT IN AND,

YOU KNOW, WHEN IS THAT GOING TO HAPPEN?

>> James: YOU'RE RIGHT, IT'S AN AMAZING WAY TO LOOKT AT SUCH

AN EVENING.

THE LAST SEASON OF "SUCCESSION" WHICH WAS MY FAVORITE SHOW ON TV

LAST YEAR AND IT ENDED ON SUCH A CLIFFHANGER, PARTICULARLY FOR

YOUR CHARACTER.

AD I KNOW YOU WERE DUE TO GO BACK AND SHOOT EARLIER IN THE

YEAR AND IT OBVIOUS GOT SHUT DOWN.

HOW FRUSTRATING HAS THIS BREAK BEEN BETWEEN SEASONS AND DO YOU

EVEN KNOW WHEN YOU WILL BE BACK SHOOTING THE SHOW?

>> YEAH, I'M GOING TO BE BACK IN A FEW WEEKS.

( JAMES GASPS ) >> AND IT'S LOOMING AND I'M

READY.

LISTEN, LAST YEAR WAS A HEAVY SEASON FOR ME, IT WAS A LOT OF

WEIGHT TO CARRY.

SO I WAS SORT OF INDESCRIBABLY RELIEVED TO PUT IT DOWN FOR A

WHILE.

I'VE GOT TWO SMALL GIRLS, AND IT WAS REALLY ENDED UP BEING A GIFT

TO HAVE A LOT OF TIME TO SPEND WITH THEM, MORE TIME THAN, YOU

KNOW, THAN I WOULD HAVE OTHERWISE HAD.

AND, SO, YOU KNOW, GOING BACK -- YOU KNOW, EACH SEASON IT WAS A

BIT LIKE A VIDEO GAME WHERE, YOU KNOW, FIRST SEASON THERE'S A

CERTAIN LEVEL AND YOU HAVE TO BEAT THE BOSS AT THE END AND THE

NEXT SEASON YOU'RE AT LEVEL TWO AND THE MONSTER IS A DIFFERENT

MONSTER AND, SO, YOU KNOW, WE'RE GOING INTO THE THIRD SEASON, AND

I THINK IT'S A BIT LIKE, YOU KNOW, THE SHACKLES ARE OFF OF ME

AND IT'S SORT OF KENDALL UNBROWNED.

SO I'M EXCITED.

>> James: DO YOU HAVE TO GET BACK INTO A KENDALL FRAME OF

MIND?

DO YOU START JUST SITTING IN THE BACK OF UBERS LISTENING TO RAP

MUSIC AND PUNCHING SEATS AND THINGS?

>> FUNNY YOU SHOULD SAY THAT, JAMES, BUT TODAY I WAS ACTUALLY

WALKING AROUND WILLIAMSBURG LISTENING TO MAGNA CAR TAHOELY

GRAIL, LISTENING TO THE JAY-Z ALBUM AND I PUT MY TOES BACK IN

IT FOR THE FIRST TIME.

I FELT IT.

>> James: YOU FELT KENDALL COMING BACK THROUGH THE HOLY

GRAIL.

>> YES.

>> James: YOU SPENT THE FIRST HALF TO HAVE THE YEAR IN A SMALL

VILLAGE IN DENMARK WHEN LOCKDOWN HAPPENED.

WHAT WERE YOU DOING THERE?

WHAT WAS THE EXPERIENCE LIKE THERE?

>> MY WIFE IS HALF DANISH, AND HER FAMILY IS OVER THERE.

WE SPEND A LOT OF TIME THERE.

WE WERE MARRIED THERE, MY FIRST DAUGHTER WAS BORN THERE AND, YOU

KNOW, I LOVE IT THERE.

I TRY AND SPEND AS MUCH TIME AS I CAN.

I FIND IT TO BE A VERY GENTLE, PEACEFUL, CALM PLACE, AND, SO,

WE WERE THERE LIVING IN COPENHAGEN, AND THEN WHEN THE

PANDEMIC CAME, WE MOVED OUT TO THIS LITTLE FISHING VILLAGE ON

THE COAST ABOUT AN HOUR NORTH OF COPENHAGEN AND WE JUST KIND OF

KICKED IT THERE.

>> James: SO WHAT GOES ON IN THIS SMALL VILLAGE?

WHAT WERE YOU DOING WHEN WE WERE LOCKED DOWN EATING PINTS OF ICE

CREAM?

WHAT DO YOU DO OVER THERE?

>> IT WAS P THIS BEAUTIFUL TOWN, WILD SAND DUNES AND A WOODS.

SO WE WALKED IN THE WOODS.

IT'S LIKE LIFE IN THE SLOW LANE A LITTLE BIT THERE.

>> James: IT'S LITERALLY LIFE IN THE SLOW LANE.

DON'T THEY DO SNAIL RACING IN THE SMALL VILLAGE THAT YOU'RE

IN?

>> YEAH.

YEAH.

THAT'S ACTUALLY A THING.

>> James: DID YOU COMPETE?

YEAH, I DID.

AND, YOU KNOW, I'M PRETTY COMPETITIVE.

SO WHAT YOU DO IS YOU'RE USING COLORED CHALK AND YOU MAKE

LANES.

THERE ARE USUALLY TWO, THREE, SOMETIMES FOUR, DEPENDING ON HOW

MANY KIDS YOU GET TOGETHER TO RACE THE SNAILS, YOU'VE GOT TO

GO AFTER IT RAINS BECAUSE THAT'S WHEN THE SNAILS COME OUT IN THE

WOODS, AND THEN YOU GET A SNAIL AND YOU LINE THEM UP AND, YOU

KNOW, AND THE GROWNUPS JUST HONESTLY STAND AROUND AND DRINK.

YOU DRINK SCHNAPPS IN DENMARK.

I FOUND IF YOU POUR SCHNAPPS AT THE FAR END OF THE TRACK, IT

ACTUALLY WAS KIND OF A CATALYST FOR THE SNAIL.

>> James: BUT I DON'T KNOW IF THAT'S CONSIDERED DOPING.

WE SHOULD LOOK INTO THAT.

REG?

>> Reggie: YEAH.

>> James: LOOK INTO THAT AS SOON AS YOU CAN.

THAT WOULD BE GREAT.

NOW, JEREMY, LET'S TALK ABOUT "THE TRIAL OF THE CHICAGO 7",

WHICH IS YOUR NEW FILM ON NETFLIX, BASED ON A TRUE STORY,

FOR ANYONE WHO HASN'T CAUGHT IT YET, TELL THEM WHATTETH ABOUT

AND WHO YOU PLAY.

>> "THE TRIAL OF THE CHICAGO 7" IS ABOUT THESE PROTESTS THAT

HAPPEN IN CHICAGO IN THE SUMMER OF 1968, PROTESTERS CONVERGED ON

CHICAGO TO PROTEST THE VIETNAM WAR AND THE DEMOCRATIC

CONVENTION, SO THE FILM IS ABOUT THESE PROTESTS, AND THE

SUBSEQUENT POLICE RIOTS THAT HAPPENED, AND THE TRIAL THAT

FOLLOWED IN 1969.

WE FILMED THE MOVIE -- I PLAY JERRY RUBEN WHO WAS A KIND OF

FIERY RADICAL, AND A BIT OF A MERRY PRANKSTER AND A

PROVOCATEUR AND A TRICKSTER.

WE WERE FILMING IN CHICAGO LAST OCTOBER, RIGHT AROUND NOW, AND

WE WERE MARCHING DOWN MICHIGAN AVENUE CHANTING NO JUSTICE, NO

PEACE, CHANTING THE PEOPLE UNITED WILL NEVER BE DEFEATED,

AND, YOU KNOW, WE WOULD HAVE NEVER KNOWN THAT OVER THE PAST

FEW MONTHS WE WOULD BE OUT ON THE STREETS OF THIS COUNTRY

CHANTING THOSE SAME THINGS.

IT'S UPSETTING BECAUSE IT KIND OF SHOWS HOW FAR WE HAVEN'T

COME, BUT I THINK INCREDIBLY POWERFUL.

>> James: IT REALLY IS.

IT'S WORTH ANYBODY'S TIME WATCHING IT.

AS ALL YOUR PERFORMANCES ARE, IT'S ABSOLUTELY BRILLIANT.

LET'S TAKE A LOOK AT A CLIP FROM "THE TRIAL OF THE CHICAGO 7"

WHICH IS AVAILABLE RIGHT NOW ON NETFLIX.

>> IS BILL TALKING TO YOU ABOUT TAKING THE STAND?

SOME OF THE PRESS GUYS ARE SAYING BILL'S BEEN TALKING TO

YOU ABOUT TAKING THE STAND.

>> HE'S BEEN TALKING TO ME ABOUT IT.

>> HE THINKS YOU WOULD GET THE CROWD WORKED UP WITH THE

POSITION PAPER.

>> HE THINKS I WON'T GET THE CROWD WORKED UP AT ALL.

HE THINKS MAYBE THEY'RE JURORS WHO RELIED ON THE SAFETY TO HAVE

THE POLICE AND ARE PUT OFF UPOR MAYBE HE JUST WANTS SOMEONE WHO

DRESSES LIKE A GROWN MAN.

>> THE COPS IN THIS CITY IN THE SUMMER OF 1968 WERE PIGS.

>> James: STICK AROUND WITH MORE OF JEREMY STRONG WHEN WE

COME BACK, EVERYBODY!

YEAH!

♪ >> James: WELCOME BACK.

WE ARE HERE WITH THE HUGELY TALENTED JEREMY STRONG.

NOW, JEREMY, WE HAVE BEEN DOING A THING ON THE SHOW CALLED A

LATE LATE SHOW AND TELL WHEN WE ASK THE GUESTS TO SHARE

SOMETHING WITH US FROM THEIR HOME THAT WE MIGHT OTHERWISE

NEVER GET TO SEE.

DO YOU HAVE ANYTHING YOU WOULD LIKE TO SHARE THIS EVENING?

>> I DO.

I'M GOING TO SHOW YOU -- I'M GOING TO SHOW YOU MY SORT OF

TALISMAN THAT THIS INCREDIBLE JEWELER IN LONDON A GUY NAMED

CASTRO SMITH WHO'S A JEWELER AND ENGRAVER HAD MADE FOR ME.

I DON'T KNOW IF YOU CAN SEE.

IT'S A SORT OF GUARDIAN ANGEL THAT'S HOLDING OBJECTS IN HIS

HAND THAT ARE SYMBOLIC TO ME, AND THEN ON THE BACK IS MY

DAUGHTER'S FOOTPRINT.

AND THEN MY OTTOER DAUGHTER, I'VE GOT A BELL.

I DON'T KNOW IF YOU CAN SEE THIS.

>> James: YEAH.

THERE'S A BELL.

HER NAME IS CLARA, AND THE BELL FELT SORT OF CLEAR AND SHINING

AND BRIGHT IS WHAT HER NAME MEANS.

THE BELLS IN COPENHAGEN ARE MY SORT OF FAVORITE SOUND IN THE

WORLD AND THEN HER NAME AND BIRTHDAY.

SO I WEAR MY GIRLS AND MY PROTECTIVE AMULET AROUND MY

NECK.

>> James: I LOVE THAT!

WELL, YOU GO BACK TO THE JEWELRY IN LONDON AND GET THE GUARDIAN

ANGEL TO ALSO NOW BE HOLDING AN EMMY.

( LAUGHTER ) THANK YOU FOR SHARING THAT,

JEREMY, IT WAS BEAUTIFUL.

REGGIE, DO YOU HAVE A QUESTION FOR OUR GUESTS THIS EVENING?

>> YES, I DO.

TONIGHT'S QUESTION GOES TO -- ( DRUM ROLL )

-- THIS QUESTION IS FOR JEREMY.

JEREMY, WHAT SIZE CAT DO YOU LIKE?
