WELCOME.
THANK YOU SO MUCH.
THANK YOU, THANK YOU, PLEASE,
ENJOY YOURSELF
WELCOME, WELCOME, WELCOME TO
"THE TONIGHT SHOW," EVERYBODY.
[ CHEERS AND APPLAUSE ]
THANK YOU FOR WATCHING
THANK YOU FOR BEING HERE
GUYS, IT'S A VERY BUSY TIME IN
NEW YORK CITY BECAUSE THE U.N.
GENERAL ASSEMBLY IS OFFICIALLY
UNDER WAY.
YEAH
MORE THAN 100 FOREIGN LEADERS
ARE IN TOWN TO ADDRESS THE
ASSEMBLY, WHILE SOME ARE JUST
HERE TO PICK UP A FIANCE FOR
90 DAYS.
[ LAUGHTER ]
I LOVE WHEN THE U.N. GENERAL
ASSEMBLY IS IN SESSION
THERE IS NO GREATER JOY THAN
WATCHING THE PRESIDENT OF
ROMANIA WALK INTO THE M&M
STORE.
[ LAUGHTER ]
SERIOUSLY, WHEN ELSE ARE YOU
GOING TO SPOT THE PRESIDENT OF
LATVIA HOLDING ONE OF THOSE
RESTAURANT BUZZERS OUTSIDE
BUBBA GUMP SHRIMP?
[ LAUGHTER ]
LIKE, "OUR TABLE IS READY.
LET'S GO."
[ LAUGHTER ]
OF COURSE, THE MAIN FOCUS OF
THIS YEAR'S GENERAL ASSEMBLY IS
FIGHTING COVID
YEP.
NOTHING LIKE HOLDING A
A SUPERSPREADER EVENT TO TACKLE
A PANDEMIC
[ LAUGHTER ]
THERE'S ACTUALLY SOME REAL
CONCERN ABOUT THE GENERAL
ASSEMBLY TURNING INTO
A SUPERSPREADER EVENT BECAUSE,
AND THIS IS REAL, THE U.N. IS
USING THE HONOR SYSTEM TO CHECK
VACCINATIONS
[ LAUGHTER ]
THE HONOR SYSTEM
I DON'T EVEN TRUST THE HONOR
SYSTEM WHEN THEY GIVE OUT CANDY
ON HALLOWEEN
IT'S LIKE, "PLEASE TAKE ONE.
OH, I KNOW YOU'RE GOING TO
TAKE -
HONEY, THEY TOOK THE BOWL.
[ LAUGHTER ]
WE DON'T HAVE A BOWL ANYMORE."
NEXT, THE U.N. IS GOING TO BE
LIKE, "WE BELIEVE FURTHER
CONFLICT WITH THE TALIBAN WILL
BE AVOIDED THANKS TO OUR LATEST
PINKIE PROMISE."
[ LAUGHTER ]
THE FIRST LEADER TO SPEAK THIS
MORNING, AND ADDRESS THE
PANDEMIC WAS NONE OTHER THAN
THE UNVACCINATED PRESIDENT OF
BRAZIL, JAIR BOLSONARO
THAT'S LIKE ATTENDING A WEIGHT
LOSS CONFERENCE AND HEARING,
"PLEASE WELCOME OUR FIRST
SPEAKER, COLONEL SANDERS."
[ LAUGHTER ]
AFTER BOLSONARO SPOKE,
PRESIDENT BIDEN THEN MADE HIS
ADDRESS TO THE U.N. GENERAL
ASSEMBLY
THE FIRST TIME HE SPOKE TO A
A ROOM OF FULL OF WORLD LEADERS
CONFIDENTLY KNOWING THAT THEY
DIDN'T HAVE HIM ON MUTE.
[ LAUGHTER ]
YEAH, BIDEN TALKED ABOUT THE
PANDEMIC, CLIMATE CHANGE, AND
THE WITHDRAWAL FROM
AFGHANISTAN.
WHEN HE WATCHED FORMER
PRESIDENT TRUMP WAS LIKE, "I
GOT WAY MORE LAUGHS THAN HIM
WAY MORE LAUGHS.
[ LAUGHTER ]
PEOPLE ARE TALKING ABOUT THIS.
TODAY THE U.S. SPACE FORCE
UNVEILED A UNIFORM PROTOTYPE
FOR ITS MEMBERS.
FINALLY, LOOK AT THIS.
HMM.
[ LAUGHTER ]
RIGHT NOW EVERY NEW YORK CITY
DOORMAN IS LIKE, "ARE WE IN THE
SPACE FORCE?
THAT'S WHAT WE'RE WEARING.
[ LAUGHTER AND APPLAUSE
CAN WE SEE IT AGAIN?
IT LOOKS LIKE A LINE COOK BEING
YELLED AT BY GORDON RAMSAY
"GO TO SPACE WITH YOU DONKEY
GO TO SPACE.
[ LIGHT LAUGHTER ]
SERIOUSLY, BY THE TIME YOU
BUTTON UP THAT JACKET THE SPACE
WAR IS GOING TO BE OVER, YOU
KNOW
YEP, THAT IS THE NEW UNIFORM,
UNTIL JEFF BEZOS BUYS THE SPACE
FORCE AND TURNS IT INTO THIS
[ LAUGHTER ]
YEAH, I LOVE THAT.
HE LOOKS -- HE LOOKS LIKE
A MASH-UP OF BUZZ LIGHTYEAR AND
WOODY.
DOESN'T HE
HERE'S SOME GOOD NEWS.
JOHNSON & JOHNSON ANNOUNCED ITS
COVID BOOSTER SHOT IS 94%
EFFECTIVE WHEN GIVEN TWO MONTHS
AFTER THE FIRST DOSE
PEOPLE WHO GOT THE J AND J WERE
LIKE, "YEAH, THAT WOULD HAVE
BEEN NICE TO KNOW ABOUT THREE
MONTHS AGO."
[ LAUGHTER ]
ACTUALLY, EVERYONE WHO GOT THE
J AND J WAS LIKE, "WE ALREADY
GOT BOOSTERS
THEY'RE CALLED MODERNA."
[ LAUGHTER ]
WELL, THIS IS GREAT.
I SAW THAT GOOGLE MEET --
GOOGLE MEET IS GOING TO START
AUTOMATICALLY ADJUSTING WEBCAM
BRIGHTNESS IN USERS' BROWSERS.
AND IT'S NOT THE ONLY NEW
FEATURE THEY'RE ADDING
TAKE A LOOK AT THIS.
WE HERE AT GOOGLE MEET ARE
EXCITED TO ANNOUNCE A BRAND NEW
FEATURE TO MAKE YOUR EXPERIENCE
BETTER THAN EVEER.
THAT'S RIGHT, WHEN YOU CLICK
NEW MEETING IT WILL TAKE YOU
DIRECTLY TO ZOOM
GOOGLE MEET, AT LEAST WE'RE NOT
SKYPE.
[ LAUGHTER AND APPLAUSE
Jimmy: YEAH, ISN'T THAT
AMAZING?
THAT'S AMAZING
AND FINALLY, A PAIR OF
107-YEAR-OLD SISTERS IN JAPAN
JUST CLAIMED THE TITLE OF
WORLD'S OLDEST IDENTICAL TWINS
YEAH, AND JUST TO CREEP PEOPLE
OUT, THEY STAND IN THE HALLWAY
OF THE RETIREMENT HOME AND SAY,
"COME PLAY WITH US."
[ LAUGHTER ]
WE HAVE A GREAT SHOW
GIVE IT UP FOR THE ROOTS,
WE HAVE A GREAT SHOW
GIVE IT UP FOR THE ROOTS,
EVERYBODY.

"POET LAUREATE" COMES FROM AND
I WAS HONORED TO BE A POET
LAUREATE IN MY LIFE.

I GO AND MAKING SURE THAT I
HAD, YOU KNOW, A LINE FROM THE
POEM AT THE BASE OF THE STATUE
