Speaker 1 (00:04):
Hello, my friend. So have you been enjoying autumn? Have
you slowed down at all? Slowed the hurried pace that
perhaps you've become accustomed to over the summer months, going here,
going there, never slowing down. I hope you've had a
chance to slow down. I hope you've been able to
(00:26):
breathe a little deeper, close your eyes a little longer,
linger over your hot coffee or your cup of tea,
catch up on doing nothing. Because these times of rest
don't last long. The holidays are coming up fast from
(00:49):
behind us. We'll all be making those lists and checking
them twice and crossing out and remaking those lists. The
to do list, the to do that stretches for miles.
That includes gift buying, gift making, trip planning, grocery shopping, cooking, cooking, cooking,
(01:10):
cleaning up. It all adds to never ending tasks and errands.
Are you the type to stick to the old, tried
and true recipes baked turkeys, baked ham, mashed potatoes, and
gravy candied yams? Or do you like to mix things
up a bit? Do your store runs turn into scavenger
(01:33):
hunts for little known or hard to find ingredients and
exotic spices. Whatever holiday type you are, I have got
your playlist covered every night without fail. I'll be playing
all your old favorites with the liberal sprinkling of the new,
the exciting, the fun songs that are now and today's
(01:58):
podcast guest is going to be lending a helping hand
with all that. You better prepare yourself for this hot dish.
His name is huge, but you may not know him
as a music man. You know him as a hilarious guy,
a funny, funny person, a kind soul, a generous spirit,
a handsome New Yorker, and even a book author. But music. Yes,
(02:25):

Hi Jimmy, Welcome to my podcast Love Someone hah. It
is so good to have you with us today.
Speaker 2 (05:30):
Thank you so much for having me.
Speaker 1 (05:31):
I'm so excited we do. We're here to talk about
your Christmas album Holiday seasoning. Because whether you're in New
York City or anywhere in America, if you're listening to
Christmas music, you're listening to Delilah, and you know it
goes the Baby and the Manger, you know, Jesus and
then Santa and then Delilah agree. And now you're kind
(05:54):
of you're moving your way up there with this Christmas
album that just you just keep adding more goodness. Do it.
Speaker 3 (06:02):
I'm trying to make you know, keep it, because I
can't even believe that I could say that I have
my own Christmas album because.
Speaker 1 (06:07):
Growing up you're so damn talented.
Speaker 3 (06:09):
I'm better doing an impression than I am at my
own voice.
Speaker 2 (06:12):
It's a tricky thing. It's like when you grow up.
Speaker 3 (06:15):
The way my whole career started is that my mom
heard about an impression contest on the radio. Actually it
was it was just the funniest person in the Hudson
Valley at Bananas Comedy Club. And my mom was like,
I hear you do all those voices in your bedroom,
Like you should do a bunch of those voice I go,
all right, I will.
Speaker 2 (06:33):
Then I go, what else are you hearing in my bedroom?
Speaker 1 (06:37):
But anyway, aren't you glad you grew up before cell phones?
Speaker 2 (06:41):
Oh?
Speaker 1 (06:43):
Aren't you glad? Jimmy, You're yeah, look, because you're such
a show off, you would have been filming things that
you should not have been filming.
Speaker 3 (06:52):
Oh completely, by the way, Yeah, I wouldn't. I didn't
even know if I would have read books or gone
to school. I mean honestly, I would have said, like, no,
this is it. I mean with a just a dream
of that being the thing.
Speaker 2 (07:03):
I think. I don't know what.
Speaker 1 (07:04):
I can be a star of my own show. I
can film, yeah, my voices, and I don't need an education.
Speaker 3 (07:10):
Yeah, I did the other way I did. I was
doing stand up. I ended up winning that contest. I
did impressions of like all these different people that were famous.
Speaker 2 (07:20):
At the time.
Speaker 1 (07:21):
Oh, who was your best.
Speaker 2 (07:24):
Gosh at the time. I know I had a pee
wee Hermann joke. That was the closer. I think.
Speaker 3 (07:30):
I did Bullwinkle, I did Casey Casem. I mean these
are dated impressions. I did Travolta.
Speaker 2 (07:35):
I started.
Speaker 3 (07:36):
I go like I was looking for a different celebrity
to be a sponsor of these troll dolls, and like,
all right, let's start the auditions first up John Travolta,
and I go like, geez, like.
Speaker 2 (07:45):
Sweet guy, I mean, like who does this hair? Like
this hair so fresh in this doll? Like you mean like,
I can't believe this thing will be you know whatever.
Speaker 3 (07:53):
And then I go next up Jerry Seinfeld, and I go, okay,
who applies with these dolls?
Speaker 2 (08:00):
What are you doing with They say in the arms
and legs don't move. What kind of a doll is this?
You know? And I would just go down the list and.
Speaker 1 (08:09):
You know at the end, so what you're saying is
you're the reason troll dolls came back. You're the reason
for the trolls movie.
Speaker 2 (08:15):
It's I. I put it out there, you put it.
Speaker 1 (08:18):
In the universe, and the universe answered. And now my
grandkids all have troll everything.
Speaker 2 (08:25):
It is the biggest thing ever.
Speaker 3 (08:26):

Speaker 2 (09:09):
They don't get or the like olof was not a voice.
Speaker 1 (09:13):
Is olof yeah yeah.
Speaker 2 (09:15):
And the only thing that's impressive really they can't say
this is.
Speaker 1 (09:18):
Well, when you get home, you got to put on
the veggietails the story of Abraham and Sea. And you
don't even have to say yeah, you don't have to
say I interviewed or Delilah interviewed me today on a podcast.
Speaker 2 (09:31):
Is that a guitar behind you?
Speaker 1 (09:32):
Do you play the I have several guitars, and no,
I don't. I don't. Everyone in my family, Jimmy is musical,
everyone not you except for me. And I write songs.
I write songs in my head all day all night.
I hear the instruments, I hear where the I hear
where the you know the keys come in. I hear it,
(09:54):
I write it. I and I cannot write and I
cannot play a single freaking note.
Speaker 2 (10:01):
Oh you and Michael Jackson.
Speaker 1 (10:03):
I have a three note range when it comes to singing.
Speaker 2 (10:07):
If you can give volumes.
Speaker 1 (10:09):
It's it's a lot of volume. I got lots of volume, dude,
But I got no freaking talent.
Speaker 2 (10:18):
It's it's been a Problemating song is a big deal.
It's hard to do.
Speaker 1 (10:22):
I I've had this problem my whole life. I am
a show off. I was born with the show off, Jean,
I probably have more genetic show off than you do,
and I got no talent.
Speaker 2 (10:34):
I disagree, but yeah, I think so why.
Speaker 1 (10:38):
Radio works for me? I don't have to dance, I
don't have to sing, I don't have to play the guitar.
I don't have to I don't have to have any talent.
Speaker 2 (10:46):
Did you should practice though in your bedroom when you
were growing up and pretend you're on the radio?
Speaker 1 (10:51):
Oh yeah, oh gosh, yeah, of course I had the
I had the cassette recorder that my dad got me
and so, and I had a neighbor, Dellan, that loved
to play the game with me. So he would record
like a newscast or whatever, and then send the cassette
over and I would record like commercials and me too. Yeah.
Speaker 2 (11:14):
I love the most fun thing.
Speaker 3 (11:16):
I want to find those tapes because I have, like
I had real to real tapes too, because you could
record longer in.
Speaker 1 (11:21):
The longer longer.
Speaker 2 (11:23):
Yeah, and so because that's for like ninety minutes.
Speaker 1 (11:26):
I found some of my old real to real tapes
in a basement of a home I was cleaning out,
and I I gotta show. I got to convert these
and play them me too.
Speaker 3 (11:37):
I forgot what I even talked about, but me and
my friend Joey Gonzalez would like report the news and
talk about or do something, or be fake DJs or
cut tooon.
Speaker 2 (11:48):
You know. We didn't even like have music or anything.
It was just I don't know what we were doing.
Speaker 1 (11:51):
I would listen to because I lived in a tiny
town in Oregon and we didn't really have much radio.
I I bought the one radio station that exists there.
But when I was a kid, I would listen to
stations out of San Francisco and out of Seattle, clear
channel stations back when clear channel meant, you know, there
(12:13):
was nobody else on the channel. And and then I
would listen to like Wolfman Jack.
Speaker 3 (12:19):
Oh yeah, yeah, right, I love Wolfman Jack.
Speaker 2 (12:24):
He would interrupt the song movie playing, and he'd like,
all right, that's the ronets in the middle of it.
Speaker 1 (12:30):
In the middle of the song is like, shu shuit,
you're stepping on your stepping on the vocals.
Speaker 3 (12:34):
What are you doing? Wolf?
Speaker 1 (12:35):
But he was wolf Man.
Speaker 2 (12:37):
Imagine if anyone did that today.
Speaker 1 (12:39):
Yeah, well, nobody's except for me real anymore. Today on
the air, I'm actually in the studio.
Speaker 2 (12:45):
I can prove to everyone I actually am seeing you.
You are real, You're not Elilah is not an AI bot.
Speaker 1 (12:51):
And and I don't call it in you know, I
don't just go in the studio and record some stuff
like some of my competitors do. Well, I'm actually here
in the studio taking colors, and.
Speaker 2 (13:02):
You're interested and yeah, and you get in there and.
Speaker 1 (13:05):
I love it. I stinking love it.
Speaker 2 (13:08):
You crush at it so good. I'm happy you love it.
Speaker 1 (13:21):
And you crush at this Christmas thing. So let's talk
about the Jonas brothers, can we?
Speaker 2 (13:26):
Yeah? You know, I wanted to write a comedy record.
Speaker 3 (13:30):
That's just like originally, what happened is my friend said
you should do a Christmas album called like twelve Days
of Christmas Sweaters and do cover songs of.
Speaker 2 (13:39):
All these songs.
Speaker 3 (13:40):
They go, Okay, that's just sounds like a good idea,
and then when I started recording and it was fine,
I wasn't that great.
Speaker 2 (13:47):
To be honest, I wasn't. You weren't feeling It.
Speaker 3 (13:51):
Was like, you know, I'm not anything better than what
Michael Buble is doing or Kelly Clarkson or you know,
so why am I even doing?
Speaker 2 (13:58):
This? Is not my wheel?
Speaker 3 (14:00):
So like, I don't think this is right, And so
I said, well, I have an I did for a
comedy song. Then they go, yeah, we can record that.
Speaker 1 (14:07):
So I recorded that and then okay, the Dolly Pardon
song you did? Is it too early for Christmas yet?
You know?
Speaker 2 (14:14):
Brilliant?
Speaker 1 (14:16):
Because every year people are like, Delilah, when need you
going to start playing Christmas music? I'm like, it's fourth
of July people, I was watching fireworks. Would you stop?
Speaker 2 (14:25):
I mean, it's too early.
Speaker 1 (14:28):
And you do a song with Dolly who is like,
you know, hard candy Christmas, and.
Speaker 2 (14:33):
Dolly Parton was unb believable. She's unbelievable to me.
Speaker 3 (14:40):
She's perfectly perfect, and she's gorgeous and she's charming, and
she's not I actually went to Dollywood.
Speaker 2 (14:47):
Have you done that yet?
Speaker 1 (14:48):
I have not done that yet, but Dollie, I've I've
had her on a couple of podcasts and on my show,
and she's just like so darling.
Speaker 3 (14:57):
And she just makes you feel good and you go,
oh my gosh. And so I pictured this song. I go,
will you do this song? It's almost too early for Christmas?
And it's basically like a joke on when it is
too early, like and we release it and like Halloween
or something. She's like, that's great, would you do a
song on my Christmas album? And I can't eve believe
I'm talking to Dolly Parton, So I go, of course,
(15:17):
she goes, let's do All I Want for Christmas? And
I go great, So I'm immediately going to Novelty Records.
Speaker 2 (15:24):
This is what I grew up with. So I go,
I think she wants me to.
Speaker 3 (15:26):
Do, like All I Want for Christmas is my too
front tea.
Speaker 1 (15:31):
So I can with you maw christmath correct exactly.
Speaker 3 (15:36):
So I go, I love to do it. So she
gets me the thing and it's it's the Mariah Carey
song All I Want for Christmas is you. I go, oh, Dolly,
I think you got the wrong person. I don't even
know if I could hit these notes. I mean, you're
gonna have to autotune this one.
Speaker 1 (15:51):
Did she have to autotune it? Or did you hit them?
Speaker 3 (15:53):
She'd no, she saved me. But she did the high
notes and I did the low notes and we harmonized.
But we did do the Mariah song and I broke
a vein, a blood vessel hopped out of my head
like I was a wrestler because I was trying to
hit these notes.
Speaker 2 (16:06):
I was going like she was so bad. I was like, oh,
she's going to cancel this, But.
Speaker 1 (16:12):
She made it work because she's Dolly, because.
Speaker 3 (16:15):
She's Dolly Parton. But we have So we have Dolly Parton,
we have Ariana Grande, we have I do a song
with Carl Delvine called Hallmark Movie. And the idea is
that I think we're in a Hallmark movie. I own
a hardware store and she's a princess and she has
to save my business, and I.
Speaker 2 (16:33):
Go, oh my gosh, we're in a Hallmark movie.
Speaker 3 (16:35):
And then she reaches for a knife, and I go,
oh my gosh, we're actually in a Lifetime movie.
Speaker 2 (16:40):
So that's that's that song. So I mean, they're all
they're all comedy songs.
Speaker 3 (16:47):
I wrote a I was trying to think of a
funny New Year's Eve song because everything's so sad on
New Year's Eve.
Speaker 1 (16:54):
All ding zignld Yeah. Yeah, I met my old love
in the grocery store. Yeah.
Speaker 3 (17:02):
I love that song, but it's sad. It's like, what's
the party song? So I go, what's the genre that
just makes you just have to smile? And I think
it's polka. There's no sad polka.
Speaker 1 (17:14):
So you want to hear a crazy polka story.
Speaker 2 (17:16):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (17:17):
When I started my radio career, I was in junior
high and high school. One of the features in my
little town was the Scandinavian Hour on weekend mornings. I
love these shows. I had to play the hornky dornky
snorky polka song by Hans Franz and the Snorkelers or whatever,
(17:40):
and I had to pronounce these names Jimmy.
Speaker 2 (17:43):
Yeah, Urgen by Urgin Durgin. That's so funny. I know
those hours.
Speaker 3 (17:49):
And every now and then we have I have a
battery power radio where every now and then I'll just
turn it on just to listen to a weird station
or something or see if AM still exists, you know,
And I.
Speaker 2 (18:01):
Just and I heard this.
Speaker 3 (18:03):
I think it was an Irish show maybe a month ago,
and I loved it.
Speaker 2 (18:08):
I'd listened to the whole thing.
Speaker 1 (18:09):
And so you did a polka song that if I
still did that show, I could play over and over.
Speaker 3 (18:15):
Oh, I would love it because it would be the
number one song. It's me and guess who weird? Al Yankovic.
We did the song with the Roots. It's called the
New Year's Eve Polka and it goes ten nine, eight, seven, six,
five four three two one.
Speaker 2 (18:29):
Better bet bet better, bet bet bet bit better, better better.
Speaker 3 (18:33):
It's really fun and it's like just it's positive and
happy and it's a party song. And I made sure
to put it on side too. It's the first track
on side to the vinyl, just in case someone's a
little drunk in DJing New Year's Eve and go what
is it?
Speaker 2 (18:49):
The third song? What is it?
Speaker 3 (18:52):
I can't see the groups? You know, it's this first song,
second side. Put it on, turn the volume up, get
the party going.
Speaker 1 (18:58):
Get the party going. And if pre order like from Target, right,
they can get the colored vinyl.
Speaker 2 (19:04):
Yes, it's they did. Everything is a pepper.
Speaker 1 (19:07):
Red or red or something funny, something sweet.
Speaker 3 (19:11):
Yes, the first The one thing you can get right
now is candy cane vinyl, so it's red and white
candy cane. It's the cool The fact that they made
it is awesome. It looks so festive in holiday. And
then the target one is ruby red.
Speaker 2 (19:23):
It looks just like a candy dapple almost. It's gorgeous. Uh.
Speaker 3 (19:27):
And then we have another deluxe version coming out that
looks like a snowy mountaintop. It's like a bluish white
snow thing and has a big pop up thing. If
you open the album, it has pop up of me
holding a lollipop in the middle.
Speaker 1 (19:40):
So people won't have to like buy decorations, they can
just buy the album.
Speaker 3 (19:45):
There stopped doing Every year my grandma stopped putting up
the tree. She would buy this tiny, weird thing that
came in a box and just take it out and
plug it in.
Speaker 2 (19:54):
It was so sad. Do you think Charlie Brown is sad?
This thing was sad? I don't know. I don't even
know if it was.
Speaker 3 (20:01):
It just lit up and I go, I guess it
counts as a tree. Where is your holiday spirit?
Speaker 2 (20:06):
Grandma? Yeah?
Speaker 1 (20:07):
But once your grandma, you're just hired. You don't want
to take the put the crop up and take it
down and da da da da da.
Speaker 2 (20:15):
You know, if someone was asking me what smells do
I remember from the holidays or what you know, and
like is it food? Is it? Turkey? Is it? And
for me it was mildew. Because I want to tell
you why though my parents had this.
Speaker 3 (20:29):
We had a fake tree that we would put up
every year, and then we'd store it in the basement.
Speaker 1 (20:34):
Where it was damp and moldy and mill blewy, yes,
and so your asthma would kick in and you would
spend the holiday season in bed with a fever, coughing
your lungs out, unable to breathe.
Speaker 2 (20:47):
And we liked it.
Speaker 3 (20:49):
That was That's how we loved it. I looked forward
to the smell every year. I go, it smells like
Christmas And it was asbestos.
Speaker 2 (20:59):
It was we were.
Speaker 1 (21:01):
Slowly slightly dying from the Christmas tree completely.
Speaker 3 (21:07):
Yeah, ApoA Long River it is.
Speaker 2 (21:10):
Yeah. It was terrible.
Speaker 3 (21:12):
By the way, I signed all these album like inserts
of like I wish I could show it to you,
like it looks like a picture of me from the
nineteen fifties or something if I existed, And then I
signed a bunch of them vinyl, and then they said,
can you sign three thousand for CDs?
Speaker 2 (21:28):
And I go. People still buy CDs. It's a giant thing.
Speaker 1 (21:34):
It's a big thing. Stirring up excitement with Jimmy Fallon
today for his upcoming album Holiday Seasoning will ladle out
a little more of the conversation. But I need to
give a spoonful of lovin to another podcast sponsor first.
(21:55):
Mercy Ships has been transforming lives for over four forty years.
Many people in our world have no access to healthcare
and as a result, they must endure pain and suffering.
But with the support of volunteers and donors, Mercy Ships
can go to these communities and perform free surgeries. Surgeries
(22:19):
that help mothers see their babies for the first time,
surgeries that allow little boys and girls to run and play.
They change lives through the work they do. Now, thanks
to the launch of the Global Mercy, the first custom
built hospital ship of its kind, they can help even
(22:39):
more people. The Global Mercy is projected to serve one
hundred and fifty thousand patients over the next five decades.
Four year old Amato from Southern Senegal was the first
to receive surgery on the Global Mercy born with one
windswept leg and one bowed leg, missed out on so
(23:00):
many things kids love. But thanks to the treatment he
received from Mercy Ships, a Modu can't wait to run
around with his friends and he dreams of all that.
Liza Ahead learn more about Mercy Ships at mercyships dot Org.
I think it's cool that vinyl has become such a
rage again.
Speaker 2 (23:22):
I have Vinyl.
Speaker 3 (23:23):
I always I never quite got rid of my Vinyl.
I always had like a good little collection. I always had,
like for me, it was big. But I think I
had probably thirty albums or something that was a big
deal in high school. I never threw them away, and
so I did Vinyl.
Speaker 1 (23:36):
But what's the first what's the first album you ever bought?
Speaker 2 (23:40):

Heart came on the show, and it was during the eclipse,
the solar eclipse, and I went out in the on
the outside here and thirty Rock on the eleventh floor
outside and we're saying total eclipse of the Heart with Heart.
Speaker 1 (25:12):
With Heart during the during the eclipse. That is very cool.
But I was obsessed with them. They're so freaking talented.
Speaker 3 (25:22):

voices are cool.
Speaker 2 (25:27):
You know that.
Speaker 1 (25:28):
Yeah, Yeah, And they're just badass. They're so bad ass.

I
Hello, my friend. So have you been enjoying autumn? Have
you slowed down at all? Slowed the hurried pace that
perhaps you've become accustomed to over the summer months, going here,
going there, never slowing down. I hope you've had a
chance to slow down. I hope you've been able to
(00:26):
breathe a little deeper, close your eyes a little longer,
linger over your hot coffee or your cup of tea,
catch up on doing nothing. Because these times of rest
don't last long. The holidays are coming up fast from
(00:49):
behind us. We'll all be making those lists and checking
them twice and crossing out and remaking those lists. The
to do list, the to do that stretches for miles.
That includes gift buying, gift making, trip planning, grocery shopping, cooking, cooking, cooking,
(01:10):
cleaning up. It all adds to never ending tasks and errands.
Are you the type to stick to the old, tried
and true recipes baked turkeys, baked ham, mashed potatoes, and
gravy candied yams? Or do you like to mix things
up a bit? Do your store runs turn into scavenger
(01:33):
hunts for little known or hard to find ingredients and
exotic spices. Whatever holiday type you are, I have got
your playlist covered every night without fail. I'll be playing
all your old favorites with the liberal sprinkling of the new,
the exciting, the fun songs that are now and today's
(01:58):
podcast guest is going to be lending a helping hand
with all that. You better prepare yourself for this hot dish.
His name is huge, but you may not know him
as a music man. You know him as a hilarious guy,
a funny, funny person, a kind soul, a generous spirit,
a handsome New Yorker, and even a book author. But music. Yes,

Thank you so much for having me.
Speaker 1 (05:31):
I'm so excited we do. We're here to talk about
your Christmas album Holiday seasoning. Because whether you're in New
York City or anywhere in America, if you're listening to
Christmas music, you're listening to Delilah, and you know it
goes the Baby and the Manger, you know, Jesus and
then Santa and then Delilah agree. And now you're kind
(05:54):
of you're moving your way up there with this Christmas
album that just you just keep adding more goodness. Do it.
Speaker 3 (06:02):
I'm trying to make you know, keep it, because I
can't even believe that I could say that I have
my own Christmas album because.
Speaker 1 (06:07):
Growing up you're so damn talented.
Speaker 3 (06:09):
I'm better doing an impression than I am at my
own voice.
Speaker 2 (06:12):
It's a tricky thing. It's like when you grow up.
Speaker 3 (06:15):
The way my whole career started is that my mom
heard about an impression contest on the radio. Actually it
was it was just the funniest person in the Hudson
Valley at Bananas Comedy Club. And my mom was like,
I hear you do all those voices in your bedroom,
Like you should do a bunch of those voice I go,
all right, I will.
Speaker 2 (06:33):
Then I go, what else are you hearing in my bedroom?
Speaker 1 (06:37):
But anyway, aren't you glad you grew up before cell phones?
Speaker 2 (06:41):
Oh?
Speaker 1 (06:43):
Aren't you glad? Jimmy, You're yeah, look, because you're such
a show off, you would have been filming things that
you should not have been filming.
Speaker 3 (06:52):
Oh completely, by the way, Yeah, I wouldn't. I didn't
even know if I would have read books or gone
to school. I mean honestly, I would have said, like, no,
this is it. I mean with a just a dream
of that being the thing.
Speaker 2 (07:03):
I think. I don't know what.
Speaker 1 (07:04):
I can be a star of my own show. I
can film, yeah, my voices, and I don't need an education.
Speaker 3 (07:10):
Yeah, I did the other way I did. I was
doing stand up. I ended up winning that contest. I
did impressions of like all these different people that were famous.
Speaker 2 (07:20):
At the time.
Speaker 1 (07:21):
Oh, who was your best.
Speaker 2 (07:24):
Gosh at the time. I know I had a pee
wee Hermann joke. That was the closer. I think.
Speaker 3 (07:30):
I did Bullwinkle, I did Casey Casem. I mean these
are dated impressions. I did Travolta.
Speaker 2 (07:35):
I started.
Speaker 3 (07:36):
I go like I was looking for a different celebrity
to be a sponsor of these troll dolls, and like,
all right, let's start the auditions first up John Travolta,
and I go like, geez, like.
Speaker 2 (07:45):
Sweet guy, I mean, like who does this hair? Like
this hair so fresh in this doll? Like you mean like,
I can't believe this thing will be you know whatever.
Speaker 3 (07:53):
And then I go next up Jerry Seinfeld, and I go, okay,
who applies with these dolls?
Speaker 2 (08:00):
What are you doing with They say in the arms
and legs don't move. What kind of a doll is this?
You know? And I would just go down the list and.
Speaker 1 (08:09):
You know at the end, so what you're saying is
you're the reason troll dolls came back. You're the reason
for the trolls movie.
Speaker 2 (08:15):
It's I. I put it out there, you put it.
Speaker 1 (08:18):
In the universe, and the universe answered. And now my
grandkids all have troll everything.
Speaker 2 (08:25):
It is the biggest thing ever.
Speaker 3 (08:26):
And you know what's funny is that Mi we know
justin Timberlake, you know, and he's the he's branch, he's
the lead troll.
Speaker 2 (08:34):
You should know. I mean, you're sour grape and vegetaie.
Speaker 3 (08:38):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (08:38):
Yeah. And Poppy, Poppy is is like the cool troll girl.
Speaker 3 (08:43):
Yes, Poppy is great too. My kids could care less
that he is branched. They don't understand it. They don't care,
they don't under They go, I go, he is the voice,
he is branch, and they go, yeah, it doesn't it's.
Speaker 1 (08:57):

Speaker 2 (09:00):
They are twenty three and twenty five.
Speaker 1 (09:02):
And they just don't care. No, they're not.
Speaker 3 (09:06):
No, I'm not their babies, but but they just don't.
Speaker 2 (09:09):
They don't get or the like olof was not a voice.
Speaker 1 (09:13):
Is olof yeah yeah.
Speaker 2 (09:15):
And the only thing that's impressive really they can't say
this is.
Speaker 1 (09:18):
Well, when you get home, you got to put on
the veggietails the story of Abraham and Sea. And you
don't even have to say yeah, you don't have to
say I interviewed or Delilah interviewed me today on a podcast.
Speaker 2 (09:31):
Is that a guitar behind you?
Speaker 1 (09:32):
Do you play the I have several guitars, and no,
I don't. I don't. Everyone in my family, Jimmy is musical,
everyone not you except for me. And I write songs.
I write songs in my head all day all night.
I hear the instruments, I hear where the I hear
where the you know the keys come in. I hear it,
(09:54):
I write it. I and I cannot write and I
cannot play a single freaking note.
Speaker 2 (10:01):
Oh you and Michael Jackson.
Speaker 1 (10:03):
I have a three note range when it comes to singing.
Speaker 2 (10:07):
If you can give volumes.
Speaker 1 (10:09):
It's it's a lot of volume. I got lots of volume, dude,
But I got no freaking talent.
Speaker 2 (10:18):
It's it's been a Problemating song is a big deal.
It's hard to do.
Speaker 1 (10:22):
I I've had this problem my whole life. I am
a show off. I was born with the show off, Jean,
I probably have more genetic show off than you do,
and I got no talent.
Speaker 2 (10:34):
I disagree, but yeah, I think so why.
Speaker 1 (10:38):
Radio works for me? I don't have to dance, I
don't have to sing, I don't have to play the guitar.
I don't have to I don't have to have any talent.
Speaker 2 (10:46):
Did you should practice though in your bedroom when you
were growing up and pretend you're on the radio?
Speaker 1 (10:51):
Oh yeah, oh gosh, yeah, of course I had the
I had the cassette recorder that my dad got me
and so, and I had a neighbor, Dellan, that loved
to play the game with me. So he would record
like a newscast or whatever, and then send the cassette
over and I would record like commercials and me too. Yeah.
Speaker 2 (11:14):
I love the most fun thing.
Speaker 3 (11:16):
I want to find those tapes because I have, like
I had real to real tapes too, because you could
record longer in.
Speaker 1 (11:21):
The longer longer.
Speaker 2 (11:23):
Yeah, and so because that's for like ninety minutes.
Speaker 1 (11:26):
I found some of my old real to real tapes
in a basement of a home I was cleaning out,
and I I gotta show. I got to convert these
and play them me too.
Speaker 3 (11:37):
I forgot what I even talked about, but me and
my friend Joey Gonzalez would like report the news and
talk about or do something, or be fake DJs or
cut tooon.
Speaker 2 (11:48):
You know. We didn't even like have music or anything.
It was just I don't know what we were doing.
Speaker 1 (11:51):
I would listen to because I lived in a tiny
town in Oregon and we didn't really have much radio.
I I bought the one radio station that exists there.
But when I was a kid, I would listen to
stations out of San Francisco and out of Seattle, clear
channel stations back when clear channel meant, you know, there
(12:13):
was nobody else on the channel. And and then I
would listen to like Wolfman Jack.
Speaker 3 (12:19):
Oh yeah, yeah, right, I love Wolfman Jack.
Speaker 2 (12:24):
He would interrupt the song movie playing, and he'd like,
all right, that's the ronets in the middle of it.
Speaker 1 (12:30):
In the middle of the song is like, shu shuit,
you're stepping on your stepping on the vocals.
Speaker 3 (12:34):
What are you doing? Wolf?
Speaker 1 (12:35):
But he was wolf Man.
Speaker 2 (12:37):
Imagine if anyone did that today.
Speaker 1 (12:39):
Yeah, well, nobody's except for me real anymore. Today on
the air, I'm actually in the studio.
Speaker 2 (12:45):
I can prove to everyone I actually am seeing you.
You are real, You're not Elilah is not an AI bot.
Speaker 1 (12:51):
And and I don't call it in you know, I
don't just go in the studio and record some stuff
like some of my competitors do. Well, I'm actually here
in the studio taking colors, and.
Speaker 2 (13:02):
You're interested and yeah, and you get in there and.
Speaker 1 (13:05):
I love it. I stinking love it.
Speaker 2 (13:08):
You crush at it so good. I'm happy you love it.
Speaker 1 (13:21):
And you crush at this Christmas thing. So let's talk
about the Jonas brothers, can we?
Speaker 2 (13:26):
Yeah? You know, I wanted to write a comedy record.
Speaker 3 (13:30):
That's just like originally, what happened is my friend said
you should do a Christmas album called like twelve Days
of Christmas Sweaters and do cover songs of.
Speaker 2 (13:39):
All these songs.
Speaker 3 (13:40):
They go, Okay, that's just sounds like a good idea,
and then when I started recording and it was fine,
I wasn't that great.
Speaker 2 (13:47):
To be honest, I wasn't. You weren't feeling It.
Speaker 3 (13:51):
Was like, you know, I'm not anything better than what
Michael Buble is doing or Kelly Clarkson or you know,
so why am I even doing?
Speaker 2 (13:58):
This? Is not my wheel?
Speaker 3 (14:00):
So like, I don't think this is right, And so
I said, well, I have an I did for a
comedy song. Then they go, yeah, we can record that.
Speaker 1 (14:07):
So I recorded that and then okay, the Dolly Pardon
song you did? Is it too early for Christmas yet?
You know?
Speaker 2 (14:14):
Brilliant?
Speaker 1 (14:16):
Because every year people are like, Delilah, when need you
going to start playing Christmas music? I'm like, it's fourth
of July people, I was watching fireworks. Would you stop?
Speaker 2 (14:25):
I mean, it's too early.
Speaker 1 (14:28):
And you do a song with Dolly who is like,
you know, hard candy Christmas, and.
Speaker 2 (14:33):
Dolly Parton was unb believable. She's unbelievable to me.
Speaker 3 (14:40):
She's perfectly perfect, and she's gorgeous and she's charming, and
she's not I actually went to Dollywood.
Speaker 2 (14:47):
Have you done that yet?
Speaker 1 (14:48):
I have not done that yet, but Dollie, I've I've
had her on a couple of podcasts and on my show,
and she's just like so darling.
Speaker 3 (14:57):
And she just makes you feel good and you go,
oh my gosh. And so I pictured this song. I go,
will you do this song? It's almost too early for Christmas?
And it's basically like a joke on when it is
too early, like and we release it and like Halloween
or something. She's like, that's great, would you do a
song on my Christmas album? And I can't eve believe
I'm talking to Dolly Parton, So I go, of course,
(15:17):
she goes, let's do All I Want for Christmas? And
I go great, So I'm immediately going to Novelty Records.
Speaker 2 (15:24):
This is what I grew up with. So I go,
I think she wants me to.
Speaker 3 (15:26):
Do, like All I Want for Christmas is my too
front tea.
Speaker 1 (15:31):
So I can with you maw christmath correct exactly.
Speaker 3 (15:36):
So I go, I love to do it. So she
gets me the thing and it's it's the Mariah Carey
song All I Want for Christmas is you. I go, oh, Dolly,
I think you got the wrong person. I don't even
know if I could hit these notes. I mean, you're
gonna have to autotune this one.
Speaker 1 (15:51):
Did she have to autotune it? Or did you hit them?
Speaker 3 (15:53):
She'd no, she saved me. But she did the high
notes and I did the low notes and we harmonized.
But we did do the Mariah song and I broke
a vein, a blood vessel hopped out of my head
like I was a wrestler because I was trying to
hit these notes.
Speaker 2 (16:06):
I was going like she was so bad. I was like, oh,
she's going to cancel this, But.
Speaker 1 (16:12):
She made it work because she's Dolly, because.
Speaker 3 (16:15):
She's Dolly Parton. But we have So we have Dolly Parton,
we have Ariana Grande, we have I do a song
with Carl Delvine called Hallmark Movie. And the idea is
that I think we're in a Hallmark movie. I own
a hardware store and she's a princess and she has
to save my business, and I.
Speaker 2 (16:33):
Go, oh my gosh, we're in a Hallmark movie.
Speaker 3 (16:35):
And then she reaches for a knife, and I go,
oh my gosh, we're actually in a Lifetime movie.
Speaker 2 (16:40):
So that's that's that song. So I mean, they're all
they're all comedy songs.
Speaker 3 (16:47):
I wrote a I was trying to think of a
funny New Year's Eve song because everything's so sad on
New Year's Eve.
Speaker 1 (16:54):
All ding zignld Yeah. Yeah, I met my old love
in the grocery store. Yeah.
Speaker 3 (17:02):
I love that song, but it's sad. It's like, what's
the party song? So I go, what's the genre that
just makes you just have to smile? And I think
it's polka. There's no sad polka.
Speaker 1 (17:14):
So you want to hear a crazy polka story.
Speaker 2 (17:16):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (17:17):
When I started my radio career, I was in junior
high and high school. One of the features in my
little town was the Scandinavian Hour on weekend mornings. I
love these shows. I had to play the hornky dornky
snorky polka song by Hans Franz and the Snorkelers or whatever,
(17:40):
and I had to pronounce these names Jimmy.
Speaker 2 (17:43):
Yeah, Urgen by Urgin Durgin. That's so funny. I know
those hours.
Speaker 3 (17:49):
And every now and then we have I have a
battery power radio where every now and then I'll just
turn it on just to listen to a weird station
or something or see if AM still exists, you know,
And I.
Speaker 2 (18:01):
Just and I heard this.
Speaker 3 (18:03):
I think it was an Irish show maybe a month ago,
and I loved it.
Speaker 2 (18:08):
I'd listened to the whole thing.
Speaker 1 (18:09):
And so you did a polka song that if I
still did that show, I could play over and over.
Speaker 3 (18:15):
Oh, I would love it because it would be the
number one song. It's me and guess who weird? Al Yankovic.
We did the song with the Roots. It's called the
New Year's Eve Polka and it goes ten nine, eight, seven, six,
five four three two one.
Speaker 2 (18:29):
Better bet bet better, bet bet bet bit better, better better.
Speaker 3 (18:33):
It's really fun and it's like just it's positive and
happy and it's a party song. And I made sure
to put it on side too. It's the first track
on side to the vinyl, just in case someone's a
little drunk in DJing New Year's Eve and go what
is it?
Speaker 2 (18:49):
The third song? What is it?
Speaker 3 (18:52):
I can't see the groups? You know, it's this first song,
second side. Put it on, turn the volume up, get
the party going.
Speaker 1 (18:58):
Get the party going. And if pre order like from Target, right,
they can get the colored vinyl.
Speaker 2 (19:04):
Yes, it's they did. Everything is a pepper.
Speaker 1 (19:07):
Red or red or something funny, something sweet.
Speaker 3 (19:11):
Yes, the first The one thing you can get right
now is candy cane vinyl, so it's red and white
candy cane. It's the cool The fact that they made
it is awesome. It looks so festive in holiday. And
then the target one is ruby red.
Speaker 2 (19:23):
It looks just like a candy dapple almost. It's gorgeous. Uh.
Speaker 3 (19:27):
And then we have another deluxe version coming out that
looks like a snowy mountaintop. It's like a bluish white
snow thing and has a big pop up thing. If
you open the album, it has pop up of me
holding a lollipop in the middle.
Speaker 1 (19:40):
So people won't have to like buy decorations, they can
just buy the album.
Speaker 3 (19:45):
There stopped doing Every year my grandma stopped putting up
the tree. She would buy this tiny, weird thing that
came in a box and just take it out and
plug it in.
Speaker 2 (19:54):
It was so sad. Do you think Charlie Brown is sad?
This thing was sad? I don't know. I don't even
know if it was.
Speaker 3 (20:01):
It just lit up and I go, I guess it
counts as a tree. Where is your holiday spirit?
Speaker 2 (20:06):
Grandma? Yeah?
Speaker 1 (20:07):
But once your grandma, you're just hired. You don't want
to take the put the crop up and take it
down and da da da da da.
Speaker 2 (20:15):
You know, if someone was asking me what smells do
I remember from the holidays or what you know, and
like is it food? Is it? Turkey? Is it? And
for me it was mildew. Because I want to tell
you why though my parents had this.
Speaker 3 (20:29):
We had a fake tree that we would put up
every year, and then we'd store it in the basement.
Speaker 1 (20:34):
Where it was damp and moldy and mill blewy, yes,
and so your asthma would kick in and you would
spend the holiday season in bed with a fever, coughing
your lungs out, unable to breathe.
Speaker 2 (20:47):
And we liked it.
Speaker 3 (20:49):
That was That's how we loved it. I looked forward
to the smell every year. I go, it smells like
Christmas And it was asbestos.
Speaker 2 (20:59):
It was we were.
Speaker 1 (21:01):
Slowly slightly dying from the Christmas tree completely.
Speaker 3 (21:07):
Yeah, ApoA Long River it is.
Speaker 2 (21:10):
Yeah. It was terrible.
Speaker 3 (21:12):
By the way, I signed all these album like inserts
of like I wish I could show it to you,
like it looks like a picture of me from the
nineteen fifties or something if I existed, And then I
signed a bunch of them vinyl, and then they said,
can you sign three thousand for CDs?
Speaker 2 (21:28):
And I go. People still buy CDs. It's a giant thing.
Speaker 1 (21:34):
It's a big thing. Stirring up excitement with Jimmy Fallon
today for his upcoming album Holiday Seasoning will ladle out
a little more of the conversation. But I need to
give a spoonful of lovin to another podcast sponsor first.
(21:55):
Mercy Ships has been transforming lives for over four forty years.
Many people in our world have no access to healthcare
and as a result, they must endure pain and suffering.
But with the support of volunteers and donors, Mercy Ships
can go to these communities and perform free surgeries. Surgeries
(22:19):
that help mothers see their babies for the first time,
surgeries that allow little boys and girls to run and play.
They change lives through the work they do. Now, thanks
to the launch of the Global Mercy, the first custom
built hospital ship of its kind, they can help even
(22:39):
more people. The Global Mercy is projected to serve one
hundred and fifty thousand patients over the next five decades.
Four year old Amato from Southern Senegal was the first
to receive surgery on the Global Mercy born with one
windswept leg and one bowed leg, missed out on so
(23:00):
many things kids love. But thanks to the treatment he
received from Mercy Ships, a Modu can't wait to run
around with his friends and he dreams of all that.

I think it's cool that vinyl has become such a
rage again.
Speaker 2 (23:22):
I have Vinyl.
Speaker 3 (23:23):
I always I never quite got rid of my Vinyl.
I always had like a good little collection. I always had,
like for me, it was big. But I think I
had probably thirty albums or something that was a big
deal in high school. I never threw them away, and
so I did Vinyl.
Speaker 1 (23:36):
But what's the first what's the first album you ever bought?
Speaker 2 (23:40):
Uh? That I tell people?
Speaker 1 (23:44):
Yeah, me, it's Confession Session. First album that was your own,
not a forty five album like album. Yeah.
Speaker 2 (23:57):
Uh, Paul McCartney Pipes of Peace. Maybe.
Speaker 3 (24:01):
I think the first album I think I asked for
that I got it was meant at work, Cargo and
my aunt got it for me.
Speaker 2 (24:08):
So I didn't buy that myself.
Speaker 3 (24:10):
My first I think my first one was I was
really into Paul McCartney, so I got all Paul McCartney stuff.
He was like, you know was big when I was
at that time.
Speaker 1 (24:22):
You're still so young, Mike, what what was I've been
fired ten times by the time came out. Okay, I'd
already been there, Miller.
Speaker 2 (24:34):

was extremely expensive at the time, was Goodbye Yellow Brick Road.

Goodbye Yellow Road, Dog in a Butterfly.

the solar eclipse, and I went out in the on
the outside here and thirty Rock on the eleventh floor
outside and we're saying total eclipse of the Heart with Heart.
Speaker 1 (25:12):
With Heart during the during the eclipse. That is very cool.
But I was obsessed with them. They're so freaking talented.
Speaker 3 (25:22):

voices are cool.
