is taking or Jason Batman yeah no I'm starting to feel it but it's it's happening it's 50 is coming it's here okay and you know you get to be 50 you start playing a little more golf maybe you're not doing as much work you maybe you want to slow down a little bit now you're out there you know this grudge match with DJ colid how'd this come about I just thought I follow DJ Ked on on all the socials and the the the Instagrams and stuff and so I'm looking at he keeps posting these photos of him playing golf and he looked like he'd be fun to play with he also look like someone I could beat and I'm not that good yeah you play I mean I'm East Coast so I'd say probably I'm not kidding five to tenen times a year it looks like he plays a whole lot more than that Jimmy yeah he I think he lives on a golf course did you think about putting money up other than somebody gets a a nice cardigan like make it interesting where as as Tiger Woods once said to me when I said I'd like to play in golf what are we playing for he said whatever makes you nervous oh my gosh can I tell you though how nervous I actually did get because so it's a obviously I'm doing this to to be fun and to make a funny thing and but we had a real PJ official it's we play Four holes we're at uh in Lake Tahoe so uh we're after the the C we had the camera stay uh after the American Century Championship we asked NBC to do us a favor this whole thing came about in like two weeks but you get you get up to the the the 17th Hol it's a part three and there's 5,000 people screaming and then when you're about to swing they're quiet and it's the most nerve-wracking thing I've ever done in my life I mean I'm a comedian I don't do I felt like an athlete I'm like oh my gosh this is the pressure man uh and so when you see the first shot it's it's it I I don't want to spoiler it but it's something so ridiculous it feels like something you'd see in a movie well like as a comedian the last thing you want to hear is silence like you right completely I was running around trying to Hype everyone up you know you know what funny we were talking to I I I sent DJ khed a text and I said hey dude you just look like you'd be fun to play with maybe we could I could challenge you on the show and we'll do something he goes yeah maybe I'd be done with I just go check my schedule and then I just challenged him on the show for real and I I said the winner will get instead of a green Blazer like the Master's Blazer gets a red cardigan sweater okay and we we really hype it up and uh and that'll be the that'll be the gift that the winner gets so I challenged him on the show uh live and the next day he happened to be in New York and he came on the show and accepted and then we called NBC and be like how can we do this and they're like you can't you can't just air a an 18ho match can you play go not really I mean I'd say I'm double bogey golf you know I don't know if you want he goes no one wants to watch that for five hours it's boring so I go so let's think of another way to do it so it's four holes uh there's a uh it's a breakfast ball there's one Mulligan and it's it's kind of it's silly but we play by the rules and it's it it's actually fascinating television I loved it is there drinking involved not for me there wasn't but for that crowd in Tahoe oh yeah oh my goodness dude I was like Dan I was like I gotta get out of here dude it was really maybe I would say five to 10,000 people I'll go nuts you can see coming up Friday uh so this Friday it'll be 11:35 Eastern so normally when you watch uh The Tonight Show with Jimmy uh you'll be able to see the Four Hole match I think I think if you a sports bar you should have a fullon raging party this Friday night uh at your bar and if you wear a cardigan into the bar you get a drink special get one from your grandma get whatever you can get a cargan sweater go in and go yeah Jimmy said that there' be a drink special tonight if I wore a cardigan uh it's because it's when are you gonna see a live uh an unaired sporting event at you know Friday night this Friday at 11:30 at night it's perfect bar time who's easier to interview if I said musicians actors athletes I would say athletes number three definitely I'd say uh I'd say probably actors actors number one then musicians then athletes I feel like athletes are tougher because they've trained their whole life to be an athlete not really talk you know it's it's it's not a a gift that they train for so it's it's kind of they have great stories but they're they're not really media trained you know where actors are and musician I think my favorite PARTA is comedians just because uh that's where I got my start and I I get to goof off with all those guys like will frell I can send him an idea um he he won't even read it and he'll just say yes I go no you should read it first will he's like no I trust you I go I I I have you dressed as Little Debbie he's like yeah no I love it we we'll figure it out you know but I I I I'm fascinated by all of them I you know I'm interested in everybody I have I once had Drew Brees on the show and he was great and we did a game where we were throwing footballs and breaking plates okay very high high quality television and uh he was playing against Taylor lner who's a great actor in all the Twilight movies and so I picked up a plate and I threw it up and Drew Brees threw it and he missed and then I threw a plate up and Taylor lner hit one so now it's one nothing Taylor lner second one I throw up Taylor lner hits his second plate if he hits one more he wins all of a sudden Drew Brees stops having fun he goes into this he goes into this mode laser red laser eyes came out of his he was like jumping up and down and it was like not fun anymore he was throwing he Before I Let Go of the plate it was disintegrating in my hand he was like I'm not losing to this actor well I I I experienced that firsthand in Tahoe of all places I'm playing golf with him in the century tournament yeah I'd made backtack birdies I'm On The Fringe of the green with a chance for three in a row he walks by me as I'm getting ready to putt and he says I can't believe that you could possibly have three birdies in a row like with such disdain for me we got done with the round Jimmy and he was so upset with his round he he parred the par five last hole and he walked off the green he didn't shake my hand or Ben rothberg's hand he was so upset and I see him the next day and I'm like oh my God the last guy want to run into is Drew Brees and and I'm on the Range and my caddy goes here he comes I go oh my God he walks by he goes hey Dan how you doing I go good I it doesn't even say anything about yesterday yeah and didn't bring it up no he got he did that whole locked in laser focused didn't even Shake Ben rothers Berger's hand these athletes don't like to lose I remember beating Tiger Woods at a video game of his own game and he who cares I mean it's a video game clearly you're Tiger Woods he got so mad and I go hey tiger you know if you hold it was a Nintendo Wii I said if you hold the button down and shake it it gives you backspin he goes don't tell me how to play my game I did it say whole thing's a joke what are you doing but when when you see this thing Friday night it is so uh it's so silly but it's funny but it's real we have an official a PGA official so it's all by the rules it starts raining there's thunder and lightning it gets it's honestly the most everything that could happen happened I couldn't have written it better and he's a great guy to play with are you still a Jets fan yeah I am I you know it's kind of that thing where you just kind of almost I don't know it's not giving up it's just you go there's other things in life I can do I can do other I can I can watercolor paint I can do anything I could do I I just don't why why do it to yourself and then I I'll find myself rooting for the Giants too just cuz they're New Yorkers and they come on the show all the time and straight hand will get mad if I don't so uh but yeah you know I thought for a second I think a lot of jets fans for a second go this is could be we do it every year I know I know why would we why would we even say that to each other why would we say this could be don't say it of course it's not the year if you could only watch one of your Saturday Night Live skits or you wanted your grandkids to see your Saturday night like the the one that you go that's it oh I mean it's probably would have to be cowbell or or with will or you know my favorite one was Mick Jagger I did a thing with Mick Jagger um he he was on the show and Rolling Stones were on the show and Mick wanted to do a sketch and so I go Lauren goes go picture sketch to uh Mick and I go if you want to I go I'm not talking to Mick I'm afraid I can't you talk to him he goes no he's cool go talk to him so I wrote down all these ideas I go uh Mick I have this idea where me and you uh are are work at a Sunglass Hut or something he's like uh no no don't know that don't know that you know he's very very very nice to me very very patient he goes that and so I before the meeting I said to Lauren maybe I'll do an impression of Mick in the mirror you know I'll be his reflection Lauren goes please don't do that that's been done so many times please Lucille bald did like just don't do it man so anyway so I'm running down these ideas they go how about this idea Nick me and you you're Keith and I'm Keith and he cloned himself so he can party with himself whatever and he goes like no not that I go down like 10 ideas I'm getting sweaty I go what if it's you in the mirror and you're like why am I doing this show again I've done it in the 70s 80s know what I do what I what I do and he goes uh oh I like that I like that did yeah yeah I like that and so I had to go into Lauren's office and said good news and bad news good news he wants to do a sketch bad news we're doing the reflection in the mirror then we wrote it on a Friday night which is so rare uh usually you write on a Tuesday night we wrote on a Friday night got the set done they made the best reflective set where everything's backwards in the mirror and we rehearsed it once and did it on Saturday night and the place uh erupted it was a it was I think it was for me one it was a perfect sketch for me let me let me see a little bit you got a purple like uh blouse on or something here yeah yeah I got I'm wearing a purple we're both wearing matching Nick Jagger purplle satin blouses and we're like what you go do the rooster go do the rooster come on what you do I'm poting my F at you I keep pulling what am I poing at you know it just got out of control and I was brand new on SNL and I remember he loved it so much that he put his hand through the mirror and shook my hand and the place was shaking and I was hot from all the appla it was just really exciting moment for me because I'm just such a fan of his and I I love that sketch any any of those ones where the place rocked you know uh very lucky to get those sketches but even the last year it felt like on Saturday Night Live everybody was intent on cracking you up like they the goal was to make you not get through a it was painful Dan it was painful everybody because they knew I'm an easy laugh you know I I just love I'm a fan of comedy and it's it's very unprofessional to me but uh will frell would we would do a sketch where we were in a hot tub together and he him and Rachel dra were This creepy couple that would get in the hot tub at like at a h at a hotel there were those creepy couple that would get in and he would eat like a duck leg or something and he'd go like how are you and then every time I talked his hand would pinch me under the water cuz he knew I would start laughing oh that's not in the script for him to do it he just is pinching okay yeah and so he would do that or Molly Shon would do stuff to just she just knew would look at me just make me laugh and Tina feay would just and they would crack me up and I'm like and Horatio Sans and I would just get in trouble and they didn't like it you know uh I had one line in cowbell and will frell and Chris push each other and Will's wearing a shirt where his guts hanging out the bottom and his glasses fall off and he look like an insane man and I had my one line and I flubbed it and then everyone was mad at me it's like they wouldn't put me in sketches I got in trouble he's uh Jimmy Fallon The Tonight Show coming up this Friday 11:35
