LIKE, LOUD, DISSONANT, HEAVY,
SORT OF PUNK ROCK, CRAZY MUSIC
AND THEN, WE'VE ALSO DONE,
LIKE, LOTS OF ACOUSTIC STUFF,
AND STUFF THAT'S MORE
ORCHESTRATED AND GENTLE, AND
THEN, EVERYTHING IN BETWEEN.
BUT THE ONE THING THAT WE HAD
NEVER REALLY DONE WAS MAKE,
KIND OF, LIKE, YOU KNOW, LIKE
A GROOVE-ORIENTED -- IT'S HARD
TO CALL IT A DANCE RECORD.
LISTEN, IF I SAY -- IF YOU PUT
THE WORD DANCE IN THE SAME
SENTENCE AS FOO FIGHTERS,
PEOPLE ARE LIKE, "I THINK I
MIGHT THROW UP -- I THINK I
JUST THREW UP IN MY MOUTH.

YOU CAN'T DO THAT.

TO ROCK BANDS THAT MADE ALBUMS
THAT YOU COULD DO THE
MOLLY RINGWALD DANCE TO, AND,
LIKE, YOU KNOW, ALBUMS THAT YOU
COULD, LIKE, KIND OF GET DOWN
TO
LIKE, DAVID BOWIE RECORDS, OR
ROLLING STONES RECORDS
AND EVEN LONG BEFORE THAT, SLY
AND THE FAMILY STONE KIND OF
STUFF.
WE WERE ALL RAISED ON THAT TYPE
OF MUSIC
WE NEVER REALLY FIGURED THAT --
WE NEVER THOUGHT WE WOULD APPLY
THAT TO WHAT WE DO
BUT I WAS LIKE, "WHY NOT."
>> Jimmy: YEAH
>> YOU'RE LIKE, "AT THIS POINT,
IT'S LIKE EVERYTHING I SAY IS

TO -- LET'S DO THIS.
LIKE, I WANT TO SEE A STADIUM
DOING THIS."
YOU KNOW
WHY NOT.
>> Jimmy: NO, IT'S SUCH A GOOD
GROOVE
YOU KNOW WHAT I WAS GONNA ASK
YOU, AS FAR AS BOWIE, HAVE YOU
EVER -- DID YOU EVER WORK WITH
BOWIE OR MEET HIM?
>> I DID
A LONG, LONG TIME AGO, HE HAD
HIS 50th BIRTHDAY PARTY AT
MADISON SQUARE GARDEN.
I THINK IT WAS, LIKE,
1997, MAYBE.
AND WE WERE INVITED TO PLAY AT
HIS BIRTHDAY PARTY
THERE WERE A LOT OF OTHER
ARTISTS THERE, BILLY CORGAN
FROM THE SMASHING PUMPKINS WAS
THERE, ROBERT SMITH FROM THE
CURE WAS THERE, CHARLES FROM
THE PIXIES, ALL THESE DIFFERENT
ARTISTS.
SONIC YOUTH.
AND WE ALL GOT TO MEET HIM
AND NOT LONG AFTER THAT, HE WAS
IN LOS ANGELES AND I WAS ASKED
BY HIS GUITARIST IF I WANTED TO
COME PLAY DRUMS ON A SONG THAT
HE WAS RECORDING
SO I GOT TO RECORD WITH BOWIE,
I GOT TO WATCH HIM STEP IN
FRONT OF A MICROPHONE, DO ONE
TAKE PERFECTLY, AND THE SOUND
OUT OF HIS MOUTH WAS DAVID
BOWIE.
IT ABSOLUTELY BLEW MY MIND
AND THEN YEARS LATER, I WAS
ASKED TO DO A SONG FOR A MOVIE
SOUNDTRACK
THEY DIDN'T WANT THE FOO
FIGHTERS
THEY JUST WANTED ME.
BUT I DIDN'T FEEL COMFORTABLE
JUST DOING A SOLO THING.
I THOUGHT, I'LL JUST DO AN
INSTRUMENTAL TRACK AND HAVE
SOMEONE ELSE SING.
SO I CONTACTED DAVID BOWIE
AND I SAID, HERE, LISTEN TO
THIS THING, MAYBE YOU WOULD
LIKE TO SING ON IT
AND TIME WENT BY, I DIDN'T HEAR
ANYTHING
FINALLY, I GOT AN EMAIL BACK,
AND HE SAID, HE SAID, DAVID, I
LIKE THE INSTRUMENTAL, BUT
THIS -- IT WAS, LIKE, A MARVEL
MOVIE KIND OF THING.
HE WAS LIKE, THIS IS NOT REALLY
MY TRIP, NOT MY GENRE OF FILM
AND STUFF.
I'D LOVE TO WORK WITH YOU AT
SOME POINT
BUT I DON'T THINK THIS IS THE
TIME
AND SO I'M SITTING IN MY LIVING
ROOM READING THIS, OH, MY GOD,
DAVID BOWIE WRITES EMAILS.
THIS IS BLOWING MY MIND RIGHT
NOW.
SO I IMMEDIATELY WROTE HIM
BACK, I DIDN'T WANT TO TAKE UP
MORE OF HIS TIME
>> Jimmy: YEAH
>> SO I SAID, I SAID, I SAID,
THANKS FOR RESPONDING.
I HOPE YOU'RE WELL
TAKE CARE.
AND THEN ONE MINUTE LATER HE
EMAILS BACK, AND SAYS, WELL,
THAT'S SETTLED THEN.
NOW [ BLEEP ] OFF.
>> Jimmy: COME ON.
COME ON!
>> I'M LIKE, I'M LIKE, OH, MY
GOD.
HOLY CRAP.
LIKE, DAVID BOWIE JUST TOLD ME
TO [ BLEEP ] OFF
SO I EMAILED BACK.
I HADN'T SEEN HIM SINCE HIS
BIRTHDAY PARTY AT MADISON
SQUARE GARDEN.
I SAID, I GUESS I'LL SEE YOU IN
ANOTHER 15 YEARS
AND HE SAYS, NOT IF I SEE YOU
FIRST.
>> Jimmy: HE'S BEING FUNNY
>> AND I'M LIKE -- WELL, I
DIDN'T KNOW THAT
I WAS LIKE, DAVID BOWIE THINKS
I'M AN [ BLEEP ]
AND WE WENT BACK AND FORTH
UNTIL I REALIZED LIKE, OH, HE'S
JUST BEING FUNNY
BUT, YES, HE WAS AN INCREDIBLE
GUY.
AND WE HAD THESE REALLY FUNNY
EMAIL EXCHANGES JUST OUT OF THE
BLUE
HE WOULD EMAIL ME IN, LIKE,
JUNE, AND SAY, WELL, HAPPY NEW
YEAR
AND I'D BE LIKE, WHAT?
AND SO THEN WE WOULD GO BACK
AND FORTH, AND I'D SAY, I'D
SAY, DRINK SOMEDAY, YES?
AND HE WOULD IMMEDIATELY EMAIL
BACK AND SAY, I WILL, THANKS
AND I COULDN'T TELL, I WOULD
SAY, HE'S ON A HEALTH KICK
NUTS AND MUFFINS
AND HE WOULD EMAIL BACK AND
SAY, THOSE ARE MY ATTORNEYS.
[ BLEEP ] LIKE THAT.
>> Jimmy: NUTS AND MUFFINS
THAT'S -- HE'S BRILLIANTLY
FUNNY.
I REMEMBER I WENT TO SOME EVENT
ONCE
I WAS SUCH A FASHION VICTIM.
BUT I PUT ON A LONG RAINCOAT,
LIKE, A TAN RAINCOAT OR
SOMETHING.
AND I WALKED IN, AND I SEE
BOWIE.
FULL-ON "DANCING IN THE
STREET," BASICALLY, BUT I'M
WEARING THAT
BUT I CAN'T PULL IT OFF BECAUSE
I DON'T HAVE HIS FACE.
AND I WALK IN THERE, AND HE'S
THERE WITH IMAN, AND I GO, HOW
ARE YOU?
HE GOES, RAINCOAT?
REALLY
I WAS LIKE, IT'S THE WHOLE
THING.
IT'S SO EMBARRASSING
>> I JUST REMEMBERED, REMEMBER
THE FOURTH OF JULY AT THE WHITE
HOUSE?
>> Jimmy: I JUST REMEMBERED
THIS
I WAS SWEATING MY BRAINS OUT

WEARING A THREE-PIECE SUIT
YOU LOOKED LIKE MARK TWAIN
HE SHOWED UP TO THE WHITE
HOUSE, AND WE WALKED UPSTAIRS
TO MEET THE PRESIDENT, AND HE'S
WEARING KHAKIS OR WHATEVER
AND HE'S LIKE, DAMN, MAN,
YOU'RE A LITTLE OVERDRESSED FOR
A PICK CHICK
>> Jimmy: THEY WERE LAUGHING AT
ME, BECAUSE YOU GUYS COME IN
I SEE YOU, I'M OPENING UP FOR
THE FOO FIGHTERS THERE, IT WAS
FOR THE VETERANS, AN OUTDOOR
THING.
I'LL DO A LITTLE STANDUP,
SOMETHING.
I'M WEARING A THREE-PIECE SUIT
I'VE NEVER BEEN INVITED TO THE
WHITE HOUSE.
I'M FREAKING OUT
I SEE YOU, WHAT'S UP
YOU'RE COOL, YOU'RE WEARING
BOARD SHORTS OR WHATEVER
LIKE, DUDE, ARE YOU HOT?
YEAH, I AM
IT'S, LIKE, 100 DEGREES.
AND I THINK PAT WAS LIKE, YOU
WERE LAUGHING, LIKE, PUT A
A T-SHIRT ON
YOU DON'T HAVE TO.
IT'S AN OUTDOOR EVENT.
I GO, I'M FINE
AND WE ALL WALKED UP, YOU GUYS
TALKED TO THE PRESIDENT AND
MICHELLE FOR A WHILE, THE FIRST
LADY
THEN I GOT WALKED IN, TOTALLY
COVERED IN SWEAT
SWEATING THROUGH MY COLLAR, IT
WAS A DIFFERENT COLOR SHIRT.
AND THEY BOTH WERE LAUGHING.
AND MICHELLE WAS LIKE, CAN I
LOOSEN YOUR TIE?
YEAH, PRESIDENT BARACK OBAMA
SAID, JIMMY, DIDN'T YOU GET THE
MEMO
IT'S A BARBECUE.
>> THAT'S RIGHT.
YOU KNOW WHAT, THE OTHER THING
I REMEMBER IS WHEN WE FIRST GOT
THERE, OF COURSE, THERE'S
SECRET SERVICE AND ALL THIS
SECURITY AND STUFF LIKE THAT
WE'RE LIKE, IT'S US AND OUR
ROAD CREW.
WE'RE LIKE, PIRATES.
WE'RE SETTING UP
SOMEONE BRIEFED US, AND THEY
BASICALLY SAID, HERE'S THE
DEAL

OVER THERE, THERE'S BATHROOMS
OVER THERE
WHATEVER YOU DO, DON'T GO PEE
IN THE BUSHES, BECAUSE THERE'S

THERE'S SO MANY GOOD JAMS.
YOU GUYS HAVE BEEN A BAND FOR
OVER 25 YEARS, AND I WANTED TO
ASK A QUESTION ABOUT YOU GUYS
BECAUSE IS THAT SURREAL TO
THINK ABOUT?
DIDN'T YOU KIND OF START AS
KIND OF LIKE AN ACCIDENT,
A HAPPY ACCIDENT
>> YEAH, THE WHOLE THING
STARTED WITH THIS DEMO TAPE
THAT I DID BY MYSELF WHERE I
JUST WENT --
I HAVE ALWAYS RECORDED SONGS BY
MYSELF WHERE I PLAY THE DRUMS,
I PLAY THE BASS, I PLAY THE
GUITARS, I PUT VOCALS ON IT BUT
I NEVER REALLY LET ANYONE HEAR
IT BECAUSE I WAS IN NIRVANA.
I WAS LIKE IN A GOOD BAND.
SO I'M LIKE, OH, THESE ARE JUST
LITTLE EXPERIENCES, EXPERIMENTS
THAT I'LL DO LIKE IN MY
BASEMENT
AND THEN, YOU KNOW, THEN AFTER
NIRVANA WAS OVER, A LONG TIME
WENT BY WHERE I WASN'T SURE
WHAT TO DO AND WAS KIND OF, YOU
KNOW, TRYING TO GET THROUGH
LIFE, AND THEN I THOUGHT, OKAY,
I'LL GO RECORD THESE THINGS BY
MYSELF
I DID, AND THEN IT -- YOU KNOW,
I ASKED SOME GUYS TO START A
A BAND
WE STARTED THE BAND.
WE STARTED TOURING, AND SO
25 YEARS LATER, LIKE, WE DIDN'T
HAVE A PLAN, YOU KNOW.
IT WASN'T LIKE WE STARTED WITH
A DEMO TAPE AND IT WAS LIKE
A WORLD DOMINATION SCHEME TO
SOME DAY CIRCLE THE PLANET
PLAYING STADIUMS
IT WAS LIKE, LET'S JUMP IN A
A VAN TOGETHER AND EAT BURRITOS
EVERY DAY AND PLAY PLACES THAT
HOLD 200 PEOPLE JUST TO, YOU
KNOW, GET BACK INTO LIFE

>> Jimmy: DO YOU THINK ALSO IT
IS A GAMBLE TO PLAY THE GUITAR
I MEAN BECAUSE YOU'RE -- I KNEW
YOU AS A DRUMMER, BUT OBVIOUSLY
YOU KNOW HOW TALENTED YOU ARE.
BUT I GO LIKE, DON'T YOU THINK
YOU SHOULD DO A DON HENLEY

>> YOU'VE GOT THE THING.
YOU'VE GOT THE McDONALD'S MIC,
LIKE IT IS PRACTICALLY
IMPOSSIBLE
THERE AREN'T TOO MANY PEOPLE
THAT COULD REALLY PULL THAT
OFF.
>> Jimmy: YOU'RE RIGHT
>> SO I THOUGHT, YOU KNOW, ONE
OF THE REASONS WHY I WANTED TO
DO THIS WAS BECAUSE I HAD NEVER
DONE IT BEFORE
LIKE THE STAND WITH THE GUITAR,
AND I MEAN AT FIRST I FELT LIKE
I WAS IN THE CHUCK E. CHEESE
BAND
I WAS LIKE, OH, GOD, HOW DO I
MOVE, WHAT DO I DO, LIKE HOW IS
MY HAIR?
THEN OVER TIME IT JUST -- YOU
KNOW, YOU JUST GET USED TO IT.
>> Jimmy: YEAH
BUT JUST -- I JUST THOUGHT -- I
GO, WELL, THAT'S SO KIND OF
GUTSY TO DO BECAUSE WE ALL KNOW
DAVE GROHL CAN JUST SMASH
A DRUM SOLO AND JUST DESTROY
IT
I GO, WELL, IT IS INTERESTING
TO HEAR HIM PLAY THE GUITAR AND
IT IS ACTUALLY FANTASTIC
I LOVE IT.
NOW I WANT TO HEAR HIM PLAY THE
GUITAR AND THE DRUM, BUT IT IS
LIKE I DON'T MIND EITHER ONE
SOMETIMES YOU SEE A BAND WHERE
THE LEAD SINGER IS LIKE, NOW
I'M GOING TO PUT A GUITAR ON
YOU GO, OOH, WE'RE GOOD, WE'RE
GOOD, DUDE, JUST LIKE WE'RE
FINE
>> YOU KNOW WHAT
MAYBE AT SOME POINT I WILL
EVENTUALLY GRADUATE TO LIKE THE
GUY ON ROLLER SKATES, ON LIKE
THE VENICE BEACH BOARDWALK
WHERE I'VE GOT LIKE A KICK DRUM
ON THIS THING, AND THEN I HAVE
A THING OVER HERE.
>> Jimmy: A SNAKE AROUND YOUR
NECK
>> YEAH, WHATEVER.
JUST DO IT MYSELF, DO IT
MYSELF
THAT'S ONE LESS SANDWICH I HAVE
TO BUY
>> Jimmy: THAT'S CORRECT
YOU'RE ACTUALLY VERY, VERY
RIGHT.
ONE LESS SANDWICH LEFT TO BUY.
IT IS AN UNRELEASED TRACK, BUT
IF YOU GO TO TARGET IT MIGHT BE
ON THE NEW ALBUM BUT IT IS NOT
BUT, ANYWAYS -
GUYS -
>> I THOUGHT YOU WERE SERIOUS
FOR A MINUTE
I WAS LIKE, WE GOT A SPECIAL
SONG AT TARGET
WOW.
OKAY
COOL
>> Jimmy: YOU OBVIOUSLY --
>> I HAVE SO MANY OF THOSE RED
TARGET BAGS IN THE BACK OF MY
CAR RIGHT NOW, I FEEL LIKE -
OKAY
THAT WAS AN ACTUAL FREEZE.
>> Jimmy: NO, IT IS A BIT!
>> OH!
YOU BASTARD!
OH
>> Jimmy: STILL, YOU'RE --
>> OH!
>> Jimmy: FOO FIGHTERS, I LOVE
'EM!
DAVE GROHL, YOU'RE THE BEST.
I LOVE YOU, BUDDY.

YOU KICKED 2021 OFF WITH A
A BANG
YOU JUST GOT ENGAGED
>> I DID, YES.
>> Jimmy: CONGRATULATIONS.
>> THANK YOU SO MUCH
THANK YOU.
>> Jimmy: BUDDY, HOW DID YOU
PROPOSE?
>> SWEET
>> Jimmy: DID YOU PLAN IT OUT?
>> YEAH, I MEAN I HAD IT
SOMEWHAT PLANNED OUT
WE WERE IN HAWAII FOR A MONTH.
YOU KNOW, MY GIRL, SHE LOVES
SUNRISES, SO I HAD THIS WHOLE
IDEA, I WAS GOING TO TAKE HER
ON THIS, LIKE, SUNRISE HIKE AND
I WAS GOING TO TAKE HER ON THE
TOP OF THE MOUNTAIN AND WE WERE
GOING TO MEDITATE AT THE TOP
AND THEN I WAS GOING TO
PROPOSE.
THAT WAS SORT OF THE WHOLE
PLAN, AND I REALIZED LIKE
HALFWAY DOWN THE DRIVE THAT IT
WAS GETTING LIGHT WAY TOO
EARLY.
SO, YOU KNOW, I WAS LIKE
GUNNING IT, AND IN THE CAR SHE
WAS LIKE SENSING THAT THERE WAS
SOMETHING, LIKE, GOING ON WITH
ME BECAUSE I WAS LIKE, WE NEED
TO GET THERE, YOU KNOW, WE NEED
TO GET TO THE TOP, WE GOT TO
MEDITATE, WE GOT TO MEDITATE
>> Jimmy: OH, MY GOSH.
>> OKAY.
CALM DOWN.
>> Jimmy: NOTHING GETS YOU MORE
INTO MEDITATION THAN YELLING AT
SOMEONE, WE GOT TO MEDITATE, WE
GOT TO MEDITATE, HURRY UP!
>> YEAH.
IT WAS 100% THE THEME OF THE
WHOLE HIKE
SO, YOU KNOW, WE GET -- AND THE
HIKE THAT I HAD CHOSEN, I ALSO
KNEW THAT IT WAS AN ILLEGAL
HIKE
IT WAS LIKE ON PRIVATE
PROPERTY, BUT I -- YOU KNOW, I
HEARD IT WAS LIKE THE BEST
SUNRISE HIKE
SO I TAKE HER ON THIS HIKE AND
I'M GUNNING IT
YOU KNOW, I'M LIKE RUNNING
BECAUSE I HAD THIS IDEA THAT WE
WERE GOING TO GET TO THE TOP
BEFORE -- LIKE -- I WAS GOING
TO SIT THERE AT SUNRISE AND
THEN PROPOSE, YOU KNOW
SO THIS WAS MY PLAN.
AND I WAS ALREADY LATE, SO I
STARTED RUNNING AND WE GOT OFF
TRACK.
SO WE WERE IN THESE, LIKE,
THORNY BUSHES AND SHE WAS LIKE,
ARE YOU SURE ABOUT THIS?
I WAS LIKE, CAN YOU SEE THE
SUN, CAN YOU SEE THE SUN, IS
THIS THE SPOT?
SHE WAS LIKE, NO, BUT I'M
GETTING CUT BY ALL OF THESE
THORNY BUSHES.
I WAS LIKE, THIS WAY, HURRY UP,
WE GOT TO MEDITATE
>> Jimmy: THIS WAY TO BLISS!
THIS WAY TO ZEN!
>> SO I KEPT GUNNING IT.
WE FINALLY, LIKE, WE GOT TO THE
TOP AND THERE WAS STILL THIS,
LIKE, SOFT, YOU KNOW, MORNING
LIGHT.
AND ALL OF A SUDDEN SAW THE
SPOT AND I WAS LIKE, OH, THIS
IS PERFECT, THIS IS THE SPOT
I GOT AROUND AND I GOT DOWN ON
THE KNEE, AND THEN SHE, LIKE,
OPENED ONE EYE AND SHE WAS
LIKE -- AND THEN I DID THE
DEED
>> Jimmy: AH
>> YEAH, IT WAS PRETTY GOOD.
>> Jimmy: THAT'S PERFECT
THAT'S A GREAT STORY
SEE?
YOU CAN'T PLAN THESE THINGS,
MAN.
WHY EVEN TRY
>> YEAH, THEN, THEN -- SO WE
SAT UP THERE FOR LIKE AN HOUR.
YOU KNOW, WE WERE, LIKE,
CALLING OUR PARENTS AND HAVING
A REALLY GOOD TIME
AND THEN WE WENT DOWN, AND WHEN
WE GOT TO THE BOTTOM THERE WERE
TWO POLICE OFFICERS WAITING FOR
US
>> Jimmy: OF COURSE.
>> AND SHE WAS LIKE, YOU SAID
IT WAS GOING TO BE OKAY, YOU
KNOW, BECAUSE THERE WERE ALL OF
THESE TRESPASSING SIGNS THAT
WERE POSTED AT THE BEGINNING OF
THE HIKE
AND THEN THE GUY -- THE GUY
CAME UP AND HE WAS LIKE, YOU
KNOW YOU'VE BEEN TRESPASSING,
RIGHT?
I WAS LIKE, YEAH, I KNOW,
LISTEN, I KNOW I DID SOMETHING
WRONG BUT I JUST PROPOSED TO MY
GIRL HERE.
SO, YOU KNOW, I JUST WANTED TO
FIND A PLAY THAT WAS SECLUDES
AND I'M REALLY SORRY, AND HE
TURNED TO ME AND HE WAS LIKE,
LOOK, I APPRECIATE THE
SENTIMENTAL [ BLEEP ] BUT YOU
STILL TRESPASSED
THAT'S VERBATIM, HE SAID THAT.
>> Jimmy: NO WAY
WOW.
SO HE WAS LIKE, YEAH, YEAH, I
CAN HOLD HANDS AND CRY WITH
YOU, BUT, YEAH, GET OUT OF
HERE, GO
>> YEAH, YEAH.
>> Jimmy: CONGRATS ON THAT
I'M SO HAPPY FOR YOU
>> THANK YOU
>> Jimmy: WE HAD ONE OF YOUR
CO-STARS ON THE SHOW RECENTLY,
JOHN CENA.
HE CAME ON IN HIS "PEACEMAKER"
OUTFIT, COSTUME.
DON'T WANT TO CALL IT AN
OUTFIT
>> YEAH, NO, NO.
>> Jimmy: THIS IS AN OUTFIT.
>> IT IS A SILVER TOILET SEAT,
A VERY PHALLIC TOILET SEAT
>> Jimmy: HE IS THE MOST FUN
I KNOW "THE SUICIDE SQUAD" IS
COMING OUT SOON.
CAN YOU SAY WHAT THE MOVIE IS
ABOUT OR YOU'RE NOT ALLOWED TO
SAY ANY SPOILERS
>> NO, I MEAN IT IS
A RIDICULOUS FILM.
IT IS SO SILLY
IT IS INCREDIBLY CHILDISH
HUMOR.
IT IS -- IT HAS THE MOST
RIDICULOUS CHARACTERS.
IT IS LIKE SURPRISINGLY MOVING
AT TIMES, AND IT IS INCREDIBLY
VIOLENT.
LIKE GORY.
JAMES GUNN JUST HAS A VERY,
VERY, LIKE, UNIQUE HANDLE ON
THIS GENRE
HE KNOWS HOW TO, LIKE, YOU
KNOW, TAKE THINGS TO AN EXTREME
BUT KEEP IT WITHIN THE REALM OF
THE GENRE AND KNOWS WHEN TO
TAKE LICENSE AND NOT
>> Jimmy: YEAH
>> LIKE FOR ME IT WAS THE FIRST
TIME I WAS IN A COMEDY, SO -
>> Jimmy: WHICH IS GREAT
>> -- THAT'S WHAT IT FELT LIKE
YEAH
>> Jimmy: I WANT TO TALK ABOUT
"FOR ALL MANKIND."
SEASON TWO HASN'T EVEN
PREMIERED AND YET THE SHOW HAS
ALREADY BEEN RENEWED FOR A
A THIRD SEASON
CONGRATS ON THAT
WHAT'S HAPPENING IN SEASON TWO
YOU THINK?
>> YEAH, SO I MEAN IT IS REALLY
FUN FOR US, LIKE WHEN WE GET
DEEPER INTO THE SEASONS.
BECAUSE ONE OF THE THINGS THAT
REALLY EXCITED ME ABOUT THIS
SHOW IS SORT OF THE GRANDER
VISION OF THIS SHOW.
YOU KNOW, AFTER THE FIRST
SEASON, FOR THOSE WHO HAVEN'T
SEEN IT, IT IS THE SHOW THAT
TAKES AN ALTERNATE HISTORY
ROUTE.
SO AROUND 1969 THIS ALTERNATE
HISTORY TIMELINE BEGINS, AND WE
SORT OF GO INTO THIS NEW WORLD
WHERE THE SPACE RACE DOESN'T
END.
THE U.S. AND THE SOVIETS PUT
BASES ON THE MOON, THE COLD WAR
STARTS TO ENTER THE SPACE
ARENA.
AND THEN WE ARE MOVING PRETTY
SWIFTLY IN TIME, SO IT IS LIKE
AN HISTORIC SHOW IN ONE WAY BUT
WE'RE JUMPING QUICKLY IN TIME.
SO THE SECOND SEASON STARTS IN
LIKE THE MID '80s, BUT IT IS A
A NEW MID '80s AND WE ARE
ALREADY SEEING, YOU KNOW, THE
RAPID EXPANSION OF TECHNOLOGY,
AND SO WE'RE STARTING TO LIKE
GO INTO A LITTLE BIT OF SCI-FI
CERTIFICATE AND THE CHARACTER
THAT I PLAY, ED BALDWIN, YOU
KNOW, HE'S, OF COURSE, IN THE
MIDDLE OF THINGS
>> Jimmy: YES, I WANT TO SHOW
A CLIP
HERE'S JOEL KINNAMAN IN THE
SEASON TWO PREMIERE OF "FOR ALL
MANKIND.
TAKE A LOOK AT THIS.
>> WHY CAN'T I GET A FLIGHT?
>> I DON'T LIKE REDHEADS
EVERYONE KNOWS THAT.
>> WHEN DO I GET MY SHOT
>> JUST TRUST ME WHEN I TELL
YOU THAT WHEN YOU'RE READY,
I'LL LET YOU KNOW.
NOW, I THINK IT WOULD BE A
A GREAT IDEA FOR YOU TO TAKE
YOUR FOOT OFF MY BALL.
THANK YOU.
>> Jimmy: JOEL KINNAMAN,
EVERYBODY.
SEASON TWO OF "FOR ALL MANKIND"
PREMIERES FEBRUARY 19th ON
APPLE TV PLUS.
