[ LAUGHTER ]
WELL, GUYS, EVERYBODY IS
TALKING ABOUT THIS
OVER THE WEEKEND, PRESIDENT
TRUMP CALLED GEORGIA SECRETARY
OF STATE, BRAD RAFFENSPERGER,
ABOUT THE ELECTION AND MIGHT
HAVE GOTTEN HIMSELF INTO MAJOR
LEGAL TROUBLE.
"LET'S HEAR WHAT CRIME IT WAS
THIS TIME!
I JUST WANT TO FIND, UH,
11,780 VOTES
>> Jimmy: THAT'S RIGHT
TRUMP ASKED HIM TO SOMEHOW FIND
ENOUGH VOTES TO FLIP GEORGIA,
SO THAT HE WOULD WIN THE STATE
BY ONE VOTE.
[ LAUGHTER ]
ONE VOTE
TRUMP WAS LIKE, BECAUSE IF
WE'RE GOING TO DO THIS WE CAN'T
MAKE IT OBVIOUS.
[ LAUGHTER ]
APPARENTLY EVERY JANUARY
TRUMP'S NEW YEAR'S RESOLUTION
IS TO FIND A NEW WAY TO GET
IMPEACHED.
TRUMP'S CALL LASTED FOR AN
HOUR, BY THE WAY
AN HOUR.
IT WAS LIKE ONE OF HIS CALLS TO
"FOX & FRIENDS" EXCEPT HE
ACTUALLY CARED WHAT THE OTHER
PERSON HAD TO SAY.
WHAT A WASTE
TRUMP COULD HAVE SPENT THAT
HOUR NOT HELPING ROLL OUT THE
VACCINE.
[ LIGHT LAUGHTER ]
AS IF THE STORY ISN'T CRAZY
ENOUGH, TRUMP HAD TRIED CALLING
HIM 18 TIMES SINCE THE
ELECTION
YEAH
I THINK WE'RE ONE CALL AWAY
FROM TRUMP SAYING, I'M ON YOUR
FRONT PORCH, I CAN SEE YOUR
HOME, PICK UP.
I CAN SEE YOU'RE SCREENING THE
CALL, YOU'RE MAKING EGGS
HELLO, I'M RIGHT HERE.
18 TIMES
APPARENTLY RAFFENSPERGER WAS
THINKING ABOUT PUTTING THE
PHONE ON VIBRATE AND TURNING IT
INTO A MASSAGER.
[ BUZZING
THAT COST US $100,000 FOR THAT
SOUND.
YOU KNOW YOU'VE --
[ BUZZING
NO, THANK YOU.
150.
YOU KNOW YOU HAVE LOST POWER
WHEN SOMEONE GETS A CALL FROM
THE PRESIDENT AND PRESSES
IGNORE 18 TIMES.
WHEN TRUMP CALLS, PEOPLE
ACTUALLY MOVE TO THE ROOM IN
THE HOUSE WHERE THE CONNECTION
IS SPOTTY.
IT IS LIKE, HONEY, I'LL BE IN
THE CRAWL SPACE, TRUMP IS
TRYING TO CALL ME.
ARE YOU THAT TALK SHOW, THAT
GAME SHOW HOST
THAT'S RIGHT
CARL BERNSTEIN SAID TRUMP'S
CALL WAS FAR WORSE THAN
WATERGATE.
IT DOESN'T MEAN MUCH TO TRUMP.
HE THINKS WATERGATE IS ABOUT
TOILETS NOT FLUSHING HARD
ENOUGH
SOMETIMES YOU HAVE TO FLUSH IT
TWO, THREE TIMES
TRUMP TRIED EVERYTHING TO
PERSUADE THE SECRETARY OF
STATE, BUT HE WOULDN'T BUDGE
LATER TRUMP TOLD RAFFENSPERGER,
COME ON, YOU WERE SUCH A NICE
GUY ON "CHEERS."
WHAT HAPPENED TO YOU
"YEAH, THAT'S WHAT YOU CALL
VOTER FRAUD, SAMMY."
THANK YOU VERY MUCH.
[ CHEERS AND APPLAUSE
>> NICE, NICE.
>> Jimmy: I BREAK IT OUT EVERY
NOW AND THEN
IT IS LIKE ANOTHER COMBINATION,
PULL IT OUT, PUT IT BACK
"THAT'S WHAT YOU CALL VOTER
FRAUD THERE, SAMMY."
YEAH, TRUMP'S CALL JUST KEPT
GOING.
LISTEN TO WHAT ELSE HE HAD TO
SAY.
>> CAN'T YOU FIND SOME EXTRA
VOTES IN THE FILING CABINET?
>> NO.
>> A BASEMENT?
>> NO.
>> THAT WEIRD GAP BETWEEN YOUR
DRIVER'S SEAT AND YOUR ARMREST
I'M SURE YOU SAW SOME BALLOTS
IN THE TRASH, YOU KNOW, THE
TRASH.
YOU CAN'T SEE ME OVER THE
PHONE, BUT I'M WINKING, OKAY
TRASH.
THEY DESTROYED ALL OF THE
VOTING MACHINES.
>> I HAVE NO IDEA WHAT YOU'RE
TALKING ABOUT.
>> THEY REMOVED THE MACHINES
AND THEN THE MACHINES TURNED
INTO ROBOTS, AND THEY VOTED FOR
BIDEN.
AND YOU CAN'T LET THE
DECEPTICON STEAL THE ELECTION.
THEY SHREDDED ALL KINDS OF
THINGS
EVERYTHING IS SHREDDED, OUR
BALLOTS, OUR CHEESE,
KUMAIL NANJIANI'S ABS.
THE LIST GOES ON, BRAD
I WILL MAKE YOU A STATUE
>> I DON'T WANT A STATUE
>> WE GOT A BUNCH OF THESE
CONFEDERATE STATUES JUST LYING
AROUND
COME ON.
WE REDO THE FACE, GIVE YOU A
A COOL BEARD, MUTTON CHOPS,
WOULD YOU LIKE THAT?

BRAD
COME ON.
JUST SAY YOU FOUND A BOC FULL
OF BALLOTS IN THE TRUNK OF YOUR

[ CHEERS AND APPLAUSE

A LOT OF PEOPLE WERE TALKING
ABOUT THIS
ON WEDNESDAY, CONGRESS IS SET
TO CERTIFIED JOE BIDEN'S
VICTORY, BUT 12 REPUBLICAN
SENATORS HAVE PLEDGED TO
CHALLENGE THE RESULTS.
CAN WE SEE THE 12 REPUBLICAN
SENATORS
IT LOOKS LIKE THE CHART OF

THEY ARE THE HEAD SHOTS IF YOU

>> THIS YEAR RUSSIAN RAMSAY IN

AFTER OPENING.

YOU'RE NOT GOING TO SHOW THE

DAYS, AND EVERYTHING I WAS
LEARNING IN THE INDUSTRY AFTER
OPENING MY FIRST BUSINESS I WAS
PUTTING INTO THESE RESTAURANTS
AND ACROSS, YOU KNOW, I WAS

COMPETITION, CAN YOU SURVIVE
THREE WEEKS IN VEGAS
>> YOU KNOW, IT WAS CRAZY.
ALSO, I THINK FOR ME, THAT'S
TEN YEARS WE'VE BEEN IN THE
RESTAURANTS, AND IT IS ONE OF
THE MOST COMPETITIVE CITIES
ANYWHERE ON THE PLANET FOR
CULINARY
AND SO TO HAVE THAT KIND OF
JEOPARDY AND MAGIC ROLLED INTO
ONE WAS SO EXCITING, AND SO I
THINK IT IS ONE OF THE BEST
SEASONS.
I'M NOT JUST SAYING THAT
BECAUSE IT IS SEASON 19.
I TAKE THAT COMPETITION VERY
SERIOUS.
IT IS A CULINARY BOOT CAMP AND
WHEN WE GET DOWN TO THE TOP
TEN, TOP EIGHT, TOP FIVE, TOP
THREE, YOU WANT TO EMPLOY THEM
ALL AND THEY'RE THAT GOOD.
SO IT IS QUITE A HEARTFELT
SEASON
IT IS A TOUGH SEASON
BUT I USED TO GET SO EXCITED
WITH THE SERVICE BECAUSE A LOT
OF CUSTOMERS GOT FED
IT IS ABOUT BLOODY TIME,
19 SEASONS
BUT ONE THING I USED TO HAVE
SLEEPLESS NIGHTS OVER WAS WHEN
THEY GO OUT ON A REWARD AND
THEY WERE OUT FOR 24 HOURS
I WAS THINKING, "OH, GEEZ, MAN,
WHO IS TURNING UP TOMORROW
MORNING?
SECURITY
>> Jimmy: NO ONE
PEOPLE GO MISSING?
>> OH, MAN
THEY WENT MISSING, BUT WE HAD
SOME VERY GOOD PRODUCERS, AND
YOU KNOW WHAT VEGAS IS LIKE.
IT IS AN AMAZING PLACE
>> Jimmy: OH, MY GOSH.
>> AND IT WAS -- I WAS ON THE
EDGE TWO OR THREE TIMES, LET ME
TELL YOU
>> Jimmy: YEAH
I WANT TO TALK ABOUT "GORDON
RAMSAY'S AMERICAN ROAD TRIP"
BECAUSE THIS SOUNDS LIKE
SOMETHING I WOULD LOVE TO DO,
BUT I KNOW IT IS WORK.
BUT YOU DON'T MAKE IT SEEM LIKE
WORK
WHOSE IDEA WAS THIS TO GET IN
AN RV AND GO AROUND ALL OF
THESE GREAT CULINARY SPOTS OF
THE COUNTRY?
>> YEAH, I GOT A LOT OF FLACK
BACK IN THE UK ABOUT THE
SUCCESS IN THE U.S., AND THEY
SORT OF CALL ME, YOU KNOW,
GORDON RAMSAY, THE AMERICAN.
>> Jimmy: WOW.
>> BECAUSE THEY THINK -- AND
SO, YOU KNOW, I SAID TO TWO OF
MY FRIENDS, I SAID, "I'M GOING
TO SHOW YOU WHAT THIS PLACE IS
ALL ABOUT.
I'M GOING TO SHOW YOU HOW GOOD
THIS COUNTRY IS.
I'M GOING TO SHOW YOU HOW BIG,
BOLD, TENACIOUS, AMBITIOUS AND
AMAZING THIS COUNTRY IS.
SO FRED, WHO IS AN AMAZING
MAITRE' D' OVER HERE, SWEET
GUY.
THE ONLY PROBLEM IS THAT HE IS
FRENCH, SO HIS SENSE OF HUMOR
IS ALSO A LITTLE BIT SORT OF
LACKLUSTER
>> Jimmy: OH, MY GOSH.
>> AND THEN GINO D'ACAMPO, AN
AMAZING ITALIAN CHEF, AND WE GO
BACK
IMAGINE A COUPLE OF YOUR MATES
FROM "SNL" FROM 20 YEARS AGO,
AND SO IT IS LIKE JOINING UP
AND TRAVELING ACROSS THE U.S.
IN THIS AMAZING RV AND JUST
SHOWING THEM WHAT AMERICA IS
ALL ABOUT.
>> Jimmy: I WANT TO SHOW
EVERYONE A CLIP FROM YOUR
SPECIAL.
HERE IS A LOOK AT
"GORDON RAMSAY'S AMERICAN ROAD
TRIP."
TAKE A LOOK.
>> YOU'VE BEEN DIGGING FOR
15 MINUTES
WE HAVE ONE CLAM
>> HERE WE GO.
HERE WE GO
>> WHERE

>> ARE YOU SURE?
>> PUT YOUR HAND IN [ BLEEP ].
YOU GOT IT
[ BLEEP ].
>> DON'T LOSE THIS THING
[ BLEEP ].
>> IT WAS ALL THE WAY DOWN
THERE.
>> GO ON
YOU'VE GOT TO GO DOWN THERE.

I'VE GOT IT!

SPEECH, REALLY EMOTIONAL ABOUT,
