People's Choice Award for Best New Comedy. Congratulations.

Thank you very much. And no one's clapped. I was I was in the I did catch a a little of it and I saw that our wonderful BB Wood got the award.

BB was in here. I interviewed her before. When was she in here? She was in here right before the holidays. She does amazing impressions.

She does. She does them all in the show. I do bad impressions. Okay. Like really bad impressions. I do, I can do a DeNiro face. Okay. So, I'll I'll reveal my DeNiro face, hold your applause. And then you just shout out emotions and I'll do it ready. Okay, ready? Here we go. Happy. Angry. Contemplative. Sad. Turned on. Violent. That's it.

So, the New Normal, going fantastically well. It's a really popular show. I know this. There's an episode coming up where you sort of like contemplate staying at home like being a stay-at-home dad versus being out in

Yeah, the two guys. It's uh, it's about kind of the fan our fantasy of what being a parent is like, meets the reality of what being a parent is like.

For the fall, you were shooting Hangover 3 and you were shooting the show sort of at the same time. Right. And so what going from one set to another. I imagine like it's a very different experience because we had Zach Galifianakis in here. Yeah. And I had to throw him out.

Why did he expose himself?

Well, he was making inappropriate comments.

Yeah, he does he does that. What did he do?

Well, there was a comment about my legs. He was asking how how I remove the hair on my legs because it looks they looked smooth. Can I see what they look like? I I have no. Why do you think I'm wearing tights today? You get more viewers if you show your legs.

Uh, no, Zach is a sick man, but it is a very different set. There's uh, there's less gay people on the New Normal set. Yes. See what I did there? You thought I was going to say the other thing. And there's a lot of children on the Hangover set.

There is a lot this. Yes, grown children. I saw there's like a promo that just got released. It's a picture where you're sort of all re-enacting like the Beatles, the Abbey Road.

Yeah, we're walking across the street.

So, which Beatle are you if you're one of the Beatles?

I mean I think uh, I think I'm an amalgam of all of them. Really? Yeah. I think I have a little of all of them in me. Sometimes we wear tights and sometimes we we show our our beautiful hairless legs.

Are you looking to be thrown out too?

I'd love to be thrown out.

Would you?

Sure. You want to try to physically throw me out of here? Yeah. Try it. Okay. Right. Here we go. Cuz you're going for that. Okay. Something just cracked. I've put on a few, so just watch your back.

Oh, I know you were in Hawaii. Right? Okay. This is going to be a disaster. I'll help you out here. Okay. Here we go. Okay. That wasn't awkward at all. How'd that go for you?

I it went it went it was great for me, but uh, yeah, how'd it go for you? Speaking of which, Oh oh oh what? There was a great Matthew McConaughey story. It was something about you worked with him and then you had

What is your interview your interview is taking other interviews I've done and asking me the same questions? It was my it was a favorite story. Oh, no. You can't read my chicken scratch. Yeah. So what would you like to talk about? Matthew McConaughey's? Yes. What would you like to know about them? Well, you've seen them. I have. And you said that we're lovely. Fantastic. The best you.

Well, I wouldn't go that far. Seen a lot of I had to do a lot of research for The New Normal.

And that was part of your research? See, you knew.

I'm not gay in real life. So I had to really get in there and look at a lot of Right. Because I think the key to a character is the shape, size, and grooming of a man's testicles. And grooming is is not to be taken lightly. That's really Yeah. Like you told me before the interview you like a really hairy. I was like, what? That I haven't heard, but it's a natural thing like a 70s. Was like a I didn't know that you love that kind of thing, but I get it. You shave your legs and you like hairy. It makes sense because you can feel the hair on your legs. If they have low hanging. Right. Right.

I don't even know how to follow that one up. Ma kinda ball. Now Ma kinda nuts. Ma kinda nuts. It sounds like a McDonald's spell. He was so good in all the movies. You just see his movies he did this year?

I didn't either. I'm interviewing myself. Magic Mike, what was that movie? It was fantastic.

Well, Matt Bomer was on your show. I know. That guy's great. He's hot. Little too handsome. Is that frustrating for uh are you uh, are you do you like men or women in your personal life? Men. Does that frustrate you when a guy is so handsome that but he's a homosexual?

In his case, yes. Yeah, cuz it's like there's no shot in hell.

Like do you still fantasize about him? Yes. Even though you have no chance because he doesn't you know, he doesn't like

I don't have a chance?

Well, he doesn't he see what a homosexual, they he tends to go for men. See, you can't change him. See, this is the thing with men. You think you can't change us. You can't change a man. And that don't try to change, just try to evolve. You're welcome. By the way, why aren't you on Twitter?

Um, I I are we doing this game now? Yes. Okay. And you, I won. Another thing I'm good at. I am not on Twitter because I have a personal aversion to social media. No offense to you guys. I find what you do is fantastic and it helps me immensely.

Well, I'm glad you came in and we're not so private in here. In this kind of singing, I love it. I mean you tweet the hell out of this if you'd like. Tweet the shit out of. We are going to tweet the. Tweet the out of this. We are going to tweet the the tweet out of this. Shave your.
