[ cheers and applause ] and now, seth meyers. Seth good evening, everybody. Im seth meyers. This is late night. We hope youre doing well. And now if you dont mind, were going to get to the news. President biden and former President Trump are set to face off in two president ial debates. Biden is looking forward to laying out his 2024 agenda, while trump is just happy to go somewhere where nobody will draw him while he sleeps. [ laughter ] after President Biden challenged him today to two televised debates, former President Trump posted on truth social, quote, Crooked Joe Biden is the worst debater i have ever faced. He cant put two sentences together, unlike trump who puts all of his sentences together. [ laughter ] while speaking to reporters outside former President Trumps criminal hushmoney trial yesterday, House Speaker mike johnson criticized Michael Cohen and said he is quote, a man who is clearly on mission for personal revenge and who is widely known as witness who has trouble with the truth. Yeah, and who would ever be crazy enough to listen to someone like that . [ laughter ] judge juan merchan asked former President Trumps lawyers yesterday if trump is planning to testify. Of course not. If theres one thing we know about trump, its that the defense rests. [ laughter and applause ] Michael Cohen testified yesterday that he still lives in a trump branded building, which tells you just how much of a pain in the ass it is to move in new york city. [ laughter ] cohen also said yesterday that he worked with former First Lady Melania Trump on an agreement with madam tussauds to create a wax figure of her for the museum, and another one to attend public events. [ laughter ] [ audience oohs ] just real quick. Are you real or a wax one . [ laughter ] well i cant silence doesnt tell me. [ laughter ] in his speech at a gala yesterday, President Biden joked that trump might have injected bleach into his skin to fight off covid. Um, have you seen the guy lately . If hes injecting anything, its deck stain. [ laughter ] lets be real. If anyone injected bleach into their skin, its mike pence. I mean [ audience oohs ] he looks like a ghost that haunts other ghosts. [ laughter ] House Speaker mike johnson, former republican president ial hopeful vivek ramaswamy, north dakota governor doug bergham, and florida congressmen Brian Donalds and corey mills all attended former President Trumps criminal hushmoney trial yesterday and wore matching Navy Blue Suits and red ties. Look at these dorks. [ light laughter ] they look like a doowop group called the four treasons. [ laughter ] they look like the mens wearhouse softball team. They look like a Singing Group called magapella. It looks like they put mitt romney in a cloning machine, but something went a little more wrong with each copy. [ light laughter ] new york mayor eric adams announced yesterday that as part of the citys crackdown on smoke shops, 75 Illegal Cannabis stores have been shut down. So sorry stoners, but youre going to have to walk to the next block. [ laughter ] aw, man. Oh, yeah. [ light laughter ] according to a new survey, the average american has five reusable shopping bags, while the average public radio listener has 53. [ light laughter ] and finally, producers have announced a new jeopardy Spinoff Series that focuses on pop culture. Its called celebrity jeopardy. [ light laughter ] [ laughter ] im sorry, i replaced myself with the madam tussauds wax seth meyers. [ laughter ] that was the monologue, everybody. [ cheers and applause ] we got a great show for you tonight. She is the emmywinning creator and star of Abbott Elementary. Our friend Quinta Brunson is back on the show. [ cheers and applause ] the great Quinta Brunson. You know him from his incredible work on snl, and his latest movie if is in theaters this weekend. Bobby moynihan is back. [ cheers and applause ] and they are veteran art punk legends featuring our very own 8g bands syd butler and seth jabour whose latest album oui lsf is out now. Les savy fav is back on the show to perform for us. [ cheers and applause ] but before we get to that, today President Biden proposed two debates against donald trump, and trump immediately accepted. Meanwhile, a bunch of maga weirdos and wannabe running mates traveled to new york to appear with trump at his criminal trial. For more on this, its time for a closer look. [ cheers and applause ] seth for some reason, trump thinks it will work to his advantage to debate joe biden on national television, despite the fact that when they debated in 2020, it was an embarrassing cluster [ bleep ] in which trump behaved like a cokedup raccoon trapped in a porta potty at coachella. They will, under my proposal. Thats not what you said and its not what your party has said. But that so we have to be engaged in thats not what theyre talking about. We have the highest trade deficit with mexico. China ate your lunch. Down 18 . China ate your lunch, joe. He said, maybe you should drop a Nuclear Weapon on them. I never said that. Antifa is an idea, not an organization. Oh, you got to be kidding. Not militia. If hed just stay out of the way oh, really . Oh, really . This guy i wanna hes just afraid of counting the votes. Youre wrong, youre wrong. I want to continue with you on this, vice President Biden. Chris, hes so wrong when he makes a Statement Like that. In fact, no. You do want me to gentlemen no. Mr. President. It was heavily you would have been much later, joe. Mr. President , sir. Chris, that was the worst part of obama. Let me ask my quesiton. Ill ask joe. No. No. Hey, mr. President , mr. President , please stop. Even the people who testified no, no, no. Mr. President three and a half million, joe. No, no, no. Sir, stop. Wait a minute. Mr. President , no, mr president. Go ahead. Can i be honest . Its a very important question. Try to be honest. He stood up he stood up and he threatened the answer to the question is no. Seth trump thinks that made him look good. [ laughter ] the only context in which that behavior makes sense is in a commercial for a drink called act like a monster energy. [ laughter ] even mike lindell saw that and was like, whoa, you sound crazy the moderator of a nationally televised debate had to yell no at the sitting president like a Flight Attendant telling a drunk passenger he cant go in the cockpit. [ light laughter ] no, you cannot go in there. But i needed a bathroom. Sir, that is not a bathroom. That is the cockpit. Yeah, but i need a bathroom real bad. The bathrooms are occupied and you need to wait. Should i go to the bathroom in the cockpit . No [ light laughter ] so trump thinks repeating that performance is the key to winning in november. By the way, im not going to sit here and pretend joe biden is in tiptop shape either. This is when you really wish there was a way obama could tap in for joe at the debates. [ light laughter ] maybe do it like one of those surprise wrestling appearances where he walks in to loud music and pyro. [ laughter and applause ] and then trump makes a shocked face like one of those Vince Mcmahon memes. [ laughter ] obama would do that move where he starts writing something while trump was answering, and trump would lose his mind. What are you writing . Are you writing something about something i said . Is he allowed to write while im talking . Shouldnt he be listening . Oh i can listen and write at the same time. Oh, you can . I dont know how to do that. [ laughter ] oh, this is bad. [ light laughter ] so is biden a debate all star . No, hes not. Every time he answers a question, im going to White Knuckle my armchair like im watching tom cruise ride a motorcycle off a cliff. cause i dont know if you guys know this, he does his own stunts. But even with the occasional slipup from biden, theres still no comparison. Trump is a snarling psycho, who just last weekend at a new jersey rally referred to Hannibal Lecter as the late, great Hannibal Lecter. [ light laughter ] so he both likes Hannibal Lecter and also thinks hes dead, despite the fact that hes not dead, not real, and also a very bad guy. [ laughter ] although who knows with trump . Maybe he was using late not to mean dead, but to mean not here yet. The late, great Hannibal Lecter, who was supposed to be here today. Hes probably [ light laughter ] probably got caught in turnpike traffic. I tell you this, though. If hannibal honks at you, dont give him the finger, because hell bite it right off. [ light laughter ] hell bite your finger right off. Hes a dear friend. [ light laughter ] so watching these two square off isnt exactly going to be ali versus frazier. Its going to be more like watching your grandpa try to catch an alligator in a garbage can. And if at all possible, we probably shouldnt air it internationally. I feel like other countries are going to watch this and say, they have 330 million people, right . I dont know. Its just just weird that its those two. [ laughter ] but the contrast biden will benefit from on stage is that hes normal for his age and trump is not normal for any age. [ light laughter ] like, whats a good age for a kid to think Hannibal Lecter is real, dead, and a cool dude . [ light laughter ] also, youd think a guy facing four separate criminal indictments who attempted a coup, got impeached twice, oversaw a net job loss and a spike in crime, cheated on his wife with a porn star, and left the nation in crisis after letting a pandemic spiral out of control would want to avoid a debate. Hell, if i so much as did one of those things, i would want to avoid ever being seen in public again. The only thing ive ever paid hush money to cover up is my college haircut. [ laughter ] but i guess not enough hush money. [ cheers and applause ] all jokes aside, what i wouldnt give to have you back, baby. [ laughter ] where you going, baby . Whered you go . And yet, trump has been obsessed with debating biden. Former President Trump is calling for debates with President Biden ahead of the general election. He posted this on truth social any time, anywhere, any place. How many debates would you commit to . As many as necessary. I would like to do it starting now. Im calling on crooked joe to debate any time, any place. Well do it anywhere you want, joe. Ive invited biden to debate. We can do it any time he wants. Seth its really quite something to challenge your opponent to a debate any time, anywhere, any place while youre standing behind barricades at a mandatory Court Appearance for your criminal trial. [ laughter ] you sure you got that much flexibility in your schedule, bro . I challenge crooked joe to a debate any time between 12 00 and 12 45 p. M. When we have our lunch break. [ laughter ] also, i challenge joe to bring me a meatball sub, because the food here stinks. [ laughter ] trump is so thirsty for a debate, he even brought an empty podium to a rally to dare biden to join him. We have an empty podium right here to my right. You know what that is . Thats for joe biden. Im trying to get him to debate. Seth i like that trumps gimmick is an empty podium like thats somehow going to work on joe biden. The only person that would work on would be donald trump. [ light laughter ] i bet we could just get rid of him forever by putting an empty podium out in the woods with a bunch of cameras pointed at it. [ laughter ] trump tried a bunch of silly gimmicks, but in the end it was clearly biden who came out ahead here. He got everything he wanted. He even reportedly agreed that no audience would be present at the debate. I dont need to tell you that trump thrives when hes screaming over a live audience. Biden getting trump to agree to no audiences is like getting a vampire to agree to fight you at noon on the beach during the garlic festival. [ laughter ] but trump doesnt seem to care. He wants it so bad, so bad that at one point trump even invited biden down to the courthouse to debate him at his criminal trial. Ive invited biden to debate. He can do it any time he wants, including tonight. Ready. Here we are. I invited him to the courthouse. Seth maybe you could have gotten biden to come if you let him sit on the jury. Biden seems like the kind of guy who would jump at the chance to sit on a jury. This is the same guy that sat behind obama at the state of the union and acted like he was Frankie Valli in atlantic city. Hes doing the most mundane procedural [ bleep ] there is and he looks like he just completed his third ride on kingda ka. He loved jury duty. Seriously, though, you really expect biden to come down to the courthouse . Only a truly pathetic loser with Nothing Better to do would fly to new york for the sole purpose of joining donald trump at his criminal trial for paying hush money to a porn star. Donald trumps allies were out in force today at the courthouse in downtown manhattan. Speaker of the house mike johnson making an appearance as well. Its a show of support for donald trump. Republicans vying to be his running mate turned out in force at his trial today. They even seemed to have coordinated their outfits, dark suit, white shirt, red tie. Michael cohen, who has no credibility, who has purged himself multiple times, who has zero integrity, has actually admitted to defrauding the trump organization. Seth why are they all dressed the same . Did their luggage get lost and they all bought the same donald trump costume from Spirit Halloween . [ laughter ] showing up to work wearing the same thing as your coworker is everyones nightmare. Of course, if you see it on instagram, they pretend to love it. These guys should have posted a pic that said lol twinsies. [ laughter ] so biden showed some impressive selfrestraint and ignored trumps irresistible offer to join him at the manhattan courthouse. But then today biden issued his own debate invitation to trump with a video that also mocked the fact that trumps criminal trial is not in session on wednesdays. Donald trump lost two debates to me in 2020. And since then, he hasnt shown up for a debate. Now hes acting like he wants to debate me again. Well, make my day, pal. Ill even do it twice. So lets pick the dates, donald. I hear youre free on wednesdays. [ laughter and applause ] seth well, jokes on you, joe. Hes actually not free on wednesdays, because thats when he preps for his other criminal trials. [ laughter ] trump then immediately jumped to accept that invitation with a weird line that i guess was supposed to be a zinger . Former President Trump spoke with Brooke Singman at fox news digital exclusively. And heres what he said. Crooked joe biden is the worst debater i have ever faced. He cant put two sentences together. He said the dates in june and Early September are fully acceptable to me. I will provide my own transportation. Seth i hear youre free on wednesdays. Ill provide my own transportation. This is like a production of bring it on at a mens only old age home. [ light laughter ] im so glad you guys are having so much fun with this, because im losing my [ bleep ] here. [ light laughter ] joe biden may not be the most gifted debater in history, but he has the advantage of standing on stage next to a man who is fundamentally incapable of behaving like a normal human being when hes outside the confines of one of his rallies. Trumps behavior is obviously offputting and weird. The only way trump can avoid embarrassing himself is if his team replaces him with an empty podium. Seth this has been a closer look. [ laughter ] [ cheers and applause ] well be right back with Quinta Brunson, everyone. [ cheers and applause ] announcer for more of seths closer looks, be sure to subscribe to late night on youtube.

No, im not complaining. Im not complaining. [ light laughter ] i mean, you received an emmy, which is incredible. Yes, thank you. [ cheers and applause ] seth and you would think you would think the important thing is receiving an emmy, but there is this one extra, sort of cherry on top. Yes. Seth when you receive an award, which is, who is the person giving it to you. Yes, yeah. Seth cause thats a photo you have forever. Yeah. Seth you had the legendary carol burnett. Ugh seth what a thing. Too much. Too much. Seth shes not just a legend, but shes also one of the sweetest people in the world. The sweetest woman. I hope she takes this the right way. Shes so legendary to me that i thought she was like a hologram. [ laughter ] sometimes people are so legendary, you forget theyre real. Seth yeah. So just taking her in that night was a bit much. Seth she told me afterwards, she was like, quinta touched me so many times [ laughter ] to see if i was seethrough. [ laughter ] im like, yeah, thats a weird thing. She does that around legends. Carol, its just the technology these days, you never know. [ laughter ] yeah, it was crazy. And i was just crying like a baby. Seth it was great, though. Yeah, yeah. Seth you also another honor you received an honorary doctorate at temple university. I did, yes, yes, yes. [ cheers and applause ] that was cool. Seth its very fun to receive sort of an educational honor yes. Seth without having to go to class. Well, i went to school for 3 1 2 years, so that seth oh, gotcha. Yeah. Seth but you never got to this place. No, i didnt. I started working seth okay. Before i graduated and that just kind of took over. And then my career started taking off, fortunately, but i always wanted to finish. Seth yeah. I always wanted that get that degree for my mother. Seth thats great. So i was really happy to be able to get that, because nothing else mattered to her. When i won an emmy, she was like, thats cute. Lets get that degree, sister. [ laughter ] so i was happy about this. Seth when you came back, temple was like, we knew youd come crawling back. Man, they knew i was about to get that degree from ucla or Something Like that. [ laughter ] so they said they better give me that degree before seth you said that was all that mattered to your mom. Your parents were not thrilled with the idea of you going into comedy. No. Seth okay. They did not like this. They didnt want any part of this. Seth did you they didnt like it. Seth did you have to hide it from them . I did. I would tell them that i was like doing anything except for comedy. I mean, i would be like, im going to stay at a boyfriends. Other things that should have been a problem. Seth yeah. I was like im going to smoke some weed up on the corner. [ laughter ] really im at improv doing yes, and. It was really [ laughter ] they just didnt want any parts of it. They thought it was a career that leads to nothing. Seth i like the idea that someone would say to them, like, our daughters a drug addict. Theyre like, you think you got it bad, ours is an improvisor. [ laughter ] kind of true no, no, no. Seth youve had a lot of i mean, youve done a lot of great things for philadelphia. Yeah.

Im going to say he seemed happy to see you. Yes. Seth did you know how happy did you have any sense of how he would show his happiness . I didnt. Seth okay. Yeah. Seth this is exactly how i think it would go. [ laughter ] dude, guys, i am so short. I havent been this high off the ground [ laughter ] in so long. Seth this is higher than the clip we just showed. No, it really was this was insane. Look at that air. Seth yeah. Hes like two of me. Seth its like you said to him, im trying to get to the balcony fast. [ laughter ] the last time i felt that way was on tower of terror. The guardians of the galaxy i swear to you my stomach went up and everything. But he did ask for consent. He was like, do you mind . I said no, thats fine. But i still didnt know id be airborne. Seth right. [ laughter ] i really didnt. Yeah. But hes so lovely. But he was a guest star on the show along with jalen. And they were just wonderful additions to our season. Seth thats really great. You are about to start as we mentioned, the third season is wrapping up. Yes. Seth youre about to start. You get a little bit of time off, then you go back into the writers room. Yes. Seth obviously youre not just the star of the show. Youre a creator, tons of responsibilities. Yeah. Seth do you find that you because you have this wonderful cast and its this great ensemble, do you like writing for the other characters more than yourself . Does it give you more freedom as a writer . I do, i absolutely do. I like writing for yourself i think is kind of hard. I think if youre not naturally, like, a narcissist seth yeah. [ laughter ] its kind of hard to its hard to just, you know, i dont know, be all about yourself. I really love writing for the character ava, because she gets to say things that yeah [ light laughter ] that i wish i could say, i think. Seth yeah. [ light laughter ] and there have been things ive said in the room that have turned into avas lines. Specifically one time i told one of the writers i said something, and they were like, you know thats not right . And i said, yeah girl, i know, i just be saying oop i was going to curse. I just be saying stuff. [ laughter ] but we turned it into an ava line. Seth yeah. So i kind of have a lot in common with her. I love writing for barbara. I like writing for every other character more than janine. Seth and then, does your staff know that its their job to remind you yes. Seth at the end of the day, you know, you also have to be on the show. Absolutely. Seth youre sort of like the glue that holds it all together. Yes. I have turned in stories before, outlines and, you know, kind of abc has been like, thats great, its lacking in the main character of the show. [ laughter ] im like, i dont see the problem. And i also like to nap. Seth yeah. [ laughter ] i just try to find some time in there to nap. Seth that is good i mean, napping is so important. I feel like i talked about naps last time i was here. Seth thats all right. They didnt get less important. Yeah, youre right. Youre right. [ light laughter ] seth i feel like not enough people are taking them. Yeah, i agree, yeah. Seth so we didnt get through to them. Justice for naps, man. [ applause ] seth how be honest, though. In a on a writers day when youre actually in the room, could you how much of a nap do you need for it to be valuable, like time . To in the i dont get a nap. Seth okay. So you cant like go grab a fiveminute nap . No. Im not a baby. [ laughter ] i cant get naps. Do you get naps . Seth no, im just saying look, i dont nothing im saying is right. Im just saying stuff. [ laughter ] do i get naps . I dont get naps. Are you ava coleman . Seth i am a little, yeah. I dont get naps, but i like to get you know, i like to try to get rest. You know, i took one yesterday. Seth yeah. I feel like i talk about naps so much. I want people to know im not just like this sleepy girl. [ light laughter ] seth but again, weve shown weve already weve talked about your accomplishments. That was sort of the front half of this. Now we want to talk about how you also mail it in all the time. [ laughter ] not true. Seth not true at all. We talked about your parents. But obviously they appreciate that youve succeeded in this thing. Yes. Seth they must be incredibly proud of you. Theyre very proud. Seth are there people, you know, through you and through your experiences that theyve shared that theyve been excited to meet . Ha [ laughter ] i have introduced my mom to mad people, you guys. On facetime, including Patti Labelle last week, which was really, really cool. Seth yeah. [ scattered applause ] yes, she was so sweet and it was incredible.

And he wanted to you know, we took a picture. I said, do you mind if i facetime my mom . This will make her day. I didnt know that it would make her day so hard that she would have to get a new phone. [ laughter ] she was like tearing up and crying. [ light laughter ] [ audience aws ] he it was so sweet. Ive never seen her react that way, for anyone. And hes, you know like a hes not 9. How old is he . Seth i dont know. How old are kids . Hes like [ laughter ] seth well, in hollywood i feel like every kid in a hollywood show like 32. Thats [ laughs ] but, you know, she lost it over him. He was such a sweetie pie. And then when i took the phone back, she said, put sheldon back on. And i was like, um, okay. So i did. But it was she freaked out over him. Seth this is another cool thing you have coming up, which proves the point that you do not take as many naps as i believe you deserve. Thank you. Seth youre going to do a new cat in the hat movie as well. Yes. Im so excited about that. Its animated, guys, so [ light laughter ] but thats super tight, honestly.

Seth heres jeremy with his imaginary friends. Aw, look at him. [ audience aws ] seth and his bad day he has a lot of anxiety. I did not realize that thing was behind me until just now. [ laughter ] i did not. This is news to me. Seth that is shocking. I apologize. [ laughter ] seth i hate when people find out via art card. I dont know whats more shocking, this or that wally has a mustache. [ laughter ] seth by the way, wally just showed up one day with a mustache. Didnt think he had to email the staff or anything . What are you thinking . Reckless behavior. Seth reckless, wally. Shame. Seth you know what the worst is . We said. Youve got to shave the mustache. He said, this is my imaginary friend. [ laughter ] and its voiced by chris pratt. [ laughter ] seth and we all can hear it. Its bad. All it ever tells wally is, like, you need a raise. Were like, oh my god, tell your mustache to be quiet. [ light laughter ] did you but your character is very anxious about a Job Interview at 30 rock. So that must have been very easy to plug into that. Very much so. I was just saying to a couple people backstage i get really filled with anxiety when i see the carpet in the elevator. Seth yes. Isnt that sorry. Oh gosh. Yeah. Thats my trauma. [ laughter ] seth no, i think the carpet in the elevator i have the reaction to it that people have when they see the carpet in the movie the shining. Like thats [ laughter ] one billion percent. Its a pattern that elicits a response. Seth because i feel like of the i mean, how many years were you with the show again . Nine. Seth so i was there for more, i was like 12 years. I mean, you want to fight . Seth and the amount of times [ laughter ] is that . Is this about to be seth is that that is more. Yeah. Seth 12 is more than 9. Yeah, so i was there longer. No, but like, the times that i was in the elevator going up where i had the feeling of like yes or going down and being like yes. Ive got to go tell Gwyneth Paltrow shes a pirate. [ laughter ] just that feeling comes in too. Seth you also were in the film unfrosted. You got to play chef boyardee. Yes, yes, yes. Seth perfect casting. Yes, thank you. I agree. Seth and you had a ravioli that was a puppet, so you got to act with a practical ravioli. Yes. The same people that did grogu on the mandalorian made eric the ravioli puppet. [ laughter ] both equally as adorable. Id like to see them fight, to be honest. [ laughter ] seth is it true that you studied puppetry back in the day . Eh, is it true . [ laughter ] i just became anthony crispino. I took a bunch of puppetry classes at uconn, yeah. Seth okay, gotcha. Right, ladies . [ laughter ] seth you mentioned grogu i feel like you were setting me up for the transition. Youre in the new Star Wars Lego show. I am. Can you believe that . Im a little jedi. Seth and, like, jedis always have really cool names. Like grogu is the perfect example, right . Its only a name that could exist in sort of space in a galaxy far, far away. It sounds mystical. Seth yes, so it must have been so exciting when you found out what your name was going to be. Yeah, im jedi bob. [ laughter ] seth jedi bob . Yeah, can you believe it . [ laughter ] seth are they worried youre not going to know its you if they give you a different name . No. Its like a reference. There was a figure that came out in between like when the star wars movies werent happening in that period between jedi and phantom menace. Lego put out a figure just called jedi. And lego fans started calling it jedi bob. Seth oh, its a shoutout to the fanbase. I got you. Im assuming how quickly after you played it, did you go buy the i had it way before. [ laughter ] seth you brought it to the audition. Yeah. They were like, theres this character jedi and i was like, bob. [ laughter ] i got four of them. You want to buy one . [ laughter ] seth i feel as though i know you enough to know the answer to this question, but when you play a character and there is merch for that character, how quickly do you get out and get the merch . Its a problem. Seth yeah. [ laughter ] i have awesomes action figures. Seth yeah, you were many voices on our animated series. Yeah. Seth is your 6yearold, does she think its cool that her dad has a lot of stuff of people he played . She no. She thinks no. No, she does, she does. [ laughter ] ben schwartz is a really good friend of mine. Seth yeah, the best. Yeah, hes the greatest. And she likes that he is sonic. She thinks im friends with sonic. Seth sure, thats a cool thing for a kid to be. Oh, very much so. Ben was very kind enough to send over some knuckles stuff. Shoutout to adam pelley, knuckles. Seth the best. And he sent over some knuckles stuff and dorothy was like, can i send a message back to sonic . Seth your daughter wanted to she wanted to send a message back to sonic. Seth okay, because sonic sent her some merch. Yeah, had sent her, like, a sweatshirt. And she likes putting on little sonic sneakers and running around the house. But i think you have the message. Seth now, we do. But before we play it, do you then do you ask her to rehearse a couple times . Or this is just like we were going to bed. She had the stuff on. She said take a picture of this and tell sonic im wearing it to bed. I did. I sent it. He said, aw. She said, now send him a message. And i went okay. And i pressed record, and this is what happened. Seth all right, so this is your 6yearold talking to sonic. Sonic, i got your nike kicks, you want to see . Ill send you a picture. [ laughter ] i love you, sonic. Goodnight. Have a fun day. My butts on fire. [ laughter ] [ applause ] seth i like that she knew, my butts on fire, you cant follow that. No, out seth thats got to be last. Thats the out, yeah. Unlike her father. [ laughter ] seth youre also going to be in inside out 2 this summer. Correct. Seth how about that . [ cheers ] another merch opportunity. Who will you be playing in inside out 2 . I play forgetter bobby. I was in the first movie as well. Seth so you so this is the second time that theyve given you a character with your own name . Oh, yeah. Im realizing i play a lot of bobbys.

Seth oh, thank god. Took me a second. Yeah, its jeremy. [ laughter ] but my middle name is bob. Seth okay.
