Featuring the legendary roots crew now heres your host, Jimmy Fallon Jimmy hey thank you very much, everybody thank you so much for tuning in. Welcome to the tonight show. My name is jimmy fallon. Lets get to the news and jokes. This weekend in between rounds of golf at his private country club in new jersey, President Trump decided to take coronavirus Financial Aid into his own hands. Listen to this. President trump spent the weekend at his golf resort in new jersey he signed a series of executive orders billed as an end run around a Gridlocked Congress jimmy just so were all clear, during a historic pandemic that has crippled the economy the president of the United States signed four executive orders to help the unemployed from his private country club even Marie Antoinette was like, come on, man, read the room. Seriously. Its not a great look when youre talking about mass unemployment and a waiter passes by, crab puff . Next, trump plans to unveil a new stimulus bill from a sauna in maralago. Im pretty sure this is the first time in history an executive order was signed with a tiny golf pencil americans were worried when the executive from the creators of the president s Coronavirus Response plan. Trump conducted a lot of president ial business from his country chub this weekend. He held a press conference with club members in attendance im sure they all wore masks and watched from a distance to ensure trumps safety. Can we see a photo well, perfect. If theres any barrier the virus cant penetrate, its loosely arranged bamboo chairs they all look like theyre modeling j. Crews new dad paunch collection. Trump is like, wow, what a diverse crowd we have here today. Theres rich white guys in polos of every color meanwhile, these guys are like, this is crazy, one minute im back taking a leak behind the 15th hole, next im witnessing a president ial press conference its not just the coronavirus taking up trumps time, there are other issues hes dealing with a new report said trump asked about adding his face to mt. Rushmore yeah, apparently trump said it was his dream to have his face added. Yeah, thats sort of like dr. Fauci saying its his dream to play center for the Los Angeles Lakers turns out a fifth president cant be added to mt. Rushmore because the rocks around it are unstable actually, the more i think about it, having something unstable means hes already a part of mt. Rushmore, yeah if mt. Rushmore doesnt work, carve my face into one of the mountains at the beautiful Yosemite National park. I think trumps wasting his time if he wants something carved into rock that looks like him, the orange hue of the grand canyon is a much better option a jeweler says hes making the worlds most expensive face mask encrusted with gold and diamonds at the price of 1. 5 million take a look at this. This is real yeah its perfect if you want both pro and antimask people to hate you. Meanwhile, i feel like an idiot because i just spent a on a face mask made of crystals, now it looks cheap. Maybe the mask is a great idea, a great way to tell everyone, im smart about health but dumb about everything else. Lets get to entertainment news. Yesterday was the start of shark week on discovery channel. Yeah i hate to be a downer, but sharks are way down the list of scary things right now for me. Seriously, right now talking into a cvs is scarier than shark week. Im not kidding. At this point its safer to swim around the atlantic dressed like a seal than it is to go to applebees the only thing scarier than a school of sharks is a school. Ah jimmy things are so crazy, sharks are looking at crowded beaches like, it is not safe out there.

Hello my first guest is an emmy winner, a tony winner, and a New York Times bestselling author his latest film the one and only ivan comes to disney plus on august 21st here is Bryan CranstonBryan Cranston, im so happy to see you. Youre looking great and man oh man, i heard that you got covid, and i was so concerned. But im happy to see you and talk to you. Could you walk me through, what was it like, when did it happen . Yeah, it was early on in march. Just around the same time that tom hanks and rita wilson got it, my wife and i got it and i thought, you know, they came out with it right away and i thought, thats great, theres no need for another celebrity to say, hey, i got it too. Jimmy yeah, right. So i just kept it quiet we were very lucky, very lucky so many people are suffering desperately from this. But my wife and i had about a week of extreme exhaustion and some body aches. A little dry cough and then it was gone we didnt have any fever to speak of and we were very, very lucky so when i realized that i was no longer infected but had the antibodies, i was encouraged to give plasma. I asked tom where he went, and he said he he gave me the address. I went to give plasma. Because it was so new, i took my iphone and i was recording the whole thing, the phlebotomist sticking the needles in, the spinning centrifuge. He said, would you mind posting this because weve had a dropoff in donors and i thought, theres a good reason to out myself and say, i had it, im fine, and if maybe you had it and youre fine now too, maybe youll consider donating the plasma because it really does help them. Jimmy oh, im happy that youre doing that, im happy you and you wife are well. You know, i was thinking about you because contagion, that movie was trending on apple. I kept seeing it and so i rented it, like everyone else in the world i know youre in it. Did you ever think, when you were filming, one day we would be living in it . I didnt. I thought that scott burns, who wrote it, steven soderbergh, who directed it, were so on top of it. We had consultants from the cdc. It was really well covered and i thought, with this much attention on a hollywood movie script, the governments got this i wouldnt worry about a thing theyre going to take care of it. Jimmy yeah, if hollywoods doing it were fine. Jimmy yes, we are. Wow were you wrong, oh my goodness. Yeah, yeah. So were actually living in it now. And the way in the movies that the virus was became a contagion is very similar to what actually happened in covid19 jimmy so strange strange times. I know recently you got to revisit two of your other characters that you played two nights ago, malcolm in the middle zoom table read of the pilot. A little reunion and also last year you did el camino, the breaking bad movie. Yeah. Jimmy getting back into breaking bad, walter white, was it difficult to do or is it like riding a bike . It was it was kind of like riding a bike. Theres so many talismans. You left your house to come back in the studio to do the show when you sat behind your desk you went, i know this. I know this environment. You just kind of get back into it thats the same way with walter white. I was able to fly from new york to albuquerque under the cover of darkness. With espionage and i slipped in, put the bald cap on and the whole thing, and the desert boots, and walter whites glasses and things all of a sudden im looking across the table, and theres jesse pinkman. And Vince Gilligan is directing it im having little flashbacks jimmy wow. It never really ended, and here we are. It was fantastic, though enjoyed the experience a lot. Jimmy did you get to keep your hat, by the way eisenberg hat . You know what not only well, keep is a very loose term. I kind of wait one second, one second okay so im here in my office jimmy no way whoa the glasses and my original hat. Jimmy how cool is that yeah. Jimmy that is no way. That is awesome. And it was a isnt that sweet . Jimmy yeah, and it was a gift, right . Yeah, yeah. It was a gift, yeah. Thats right jimmy oh my gosh theres a popular breaking bad theory, i just wanted your take. A lot of fans are saying walter white did not die in the finale, he actually survives, got a new identity, just became your character in malcolm in the middle. So breaking bad was a prequel to malcolm in the middle. Your thoughts . Im not at liberty to disclose that kind of information without security clearances i think its fun but, you know. Its fun i dont know no, walter white is definitely dead hes dead, hes dead, hes dead, hes dead. Jimmy you would tell me, right . Because im your buddy. I would always tell you the truth. I always have told you the truth. Jimmy yeah you know yeah thinking about that. Because you did tell me the truth, but last time you were here, i think around that time, january . I said, hey, any rumors about this breaking bad movie true and you said what did i say . Jimmy you said there was truth that theres a rumor which is great did you know that you were shooting it . Yeah im a big fat liar that as a matter of fact, i looked at the calendar i was doing a play in new york i finished a matinee on sunday about 5 00 p. M and they swept me out to teterboro, get on a private airplane to go a private jet to albuquerque two steps down off onto the tarmac in albuquerque and im in a dark car, driven by dennis milligan, our driver captain and he zips me out to an airbnb. He pulls me in he says, you know you cant go anywhere but weve got everything, weve got the whole refrigerator stocked, everything set. Ill come by at 6 00 tomorrow morning and pick you up. Sure enough, there he was. I get into the dark car. When we got to the base camp, instead of having walton jesse, or brian and aaron on the dressing room, it said bert and ernie. Bert and ernie, wow you really kept it secret. Did it work . And i had to wear a cloak like i was in the mandalorian. I had this cloak like
