>> WE ARE SETTING THE MOOD. >> James: LET'S SET THE MOOD.
>> SEE YOU. >> James: WE'LL SEE YOU OUT
THERE. >> James: LAKEITH STANFIELD,
EVERYBODY! THEY'RE A GRAMMY-NOMINATED CHART
TOPPING BAND WHO'VE HAD MORE THAN FIVE BILLION STREAMS
ONLINE, WHAT A THRILL, THE MIGHTY, THE INCREDIBLE,
ONE REPUBLIC! IS LEER TONIGHT.
THERE WE ARE, HEY, FELLINGAS. >> HEY THERE.
>> James: HOW ARE YOU DOING? >> OH GOOD, WE'RE DOING OKAY.
>> James: DOING OKAY. >> THE GREEN ROOM IS NOT REALLY
UP TO SNUFF BUT IT WILL GET THERE.
>> James: IF YOU GO TO LAKEITH'S ROOM, HE IS SETTING
QUITE THE MOOD. >> I SMELL IT, ACTUALLY, CAN I
SMELL THE MOOD. >> James: YOU CAN POP IN
THERENESS WITH RIGHT HERE. >> James: WE'RE SETTING THE

OH MY GOD, IT'S-- HEY GUYS. >> James: WE'LL LEAVE YOU TOO
IT, ONE REPUBLIC, EVERYBODY. AND
AND LATER, RYAN TEDDER WILL BE JOINING US ON THE COUCH,
SO STICK AROUND. BACK AT IT, BACK AT IT ON A
MONDAY. WELL, IT'S THAT TIME,
IT'S TIME FOR, THE NEWS. OIL PRICES SURGED TODAY
AND WITH REPORTS THAT THE UNITED STATES COULD POSSIBLY BAN
THE IMPORT OF RUSSIAN OIL, GAS PRICES COULD SOON REACH
ALL-TIME HIGHS. ALL-TIME HIGHSK YOU NO WHAT IT
MEANS. GUESS I'LL HAVE TO HOLD OFF ON
BUYING THAT MONSTER TRUCK. THERE GOES MY SUMMER.
ON THE BRIGHT SIDE, AT LEAST YOU NOW HAVE SOMETHING TO TALK ABOUT
WITH YOUR STEP DAD. HAVE YOU SEEN THE PRICE OF GAS
LATELY, HEY, PRETTY HIGH. HERE'S HOW BAD
IT'S GETTING. ACCORDING TO ONE REPORT,
PRESIDENT BIDEN IS CONSIDERING A TRIP TO SAUDI ARABIA YOU KNOW,
THE KINGDOM HE CALLED A "PARIAH" ON THE CAMPAIGN TRAIL.
APPARENTLY, HE HOPES TO REPAIR RELATIONS AND CONVINCE SAUDI
ARABIA TO PUMP MORE OIL. YOU KNOW BIDEN'S GOING TO GET
THERE AND BE LIKE, [DESPERATE]
"WHAT? I NEVER CALLED YOU A PARIAH!
I SAID YOU WERE A MARIAH. BECAUSE EVERYONE LOVES YOU
AND... YOU CAN... IT'S NOT CHRISTMAS WITHOUT YOU
AND ALL THE HIGH NOTES, YOU KNOW?
JOE BIDEN COULD BE GOING TO SAUDI ARABIA TO ASK FOR MORE
OIL. THIS IS LIKE SHOWING UP AT YOUR
EX'S HOUSE TO ASK FOR YOUR HOODIE BACK.
IT'S UNCOMFORTABLE FOR EVERYONE, THE ANSWER IS PROBABLY "NO,"
AND YOU JUST HOPE IT DOESN'T ESCALATE.
MEANWHILE, VLADIMIR PUTIN HAS BEGUN CRACKING DOWN ON
DISSENTING MEDIA INSIDE RUSSIA. OVER THE WEEKEND, HE SIGNED A
NEW LAW CRIMINALIZING INTERNATIONAL NEWS OUTLETS
AND EVEN BLOCKED ACCESS TO FACEBOOK AND TWITTER.
THAT'S HORRIFYING. CAN YOU IMAGINE GETTING TODAY'S
WORDLE IN TWO TRIES AND NOT BEING ABLE TO SHARE IT?
RUSSIA IS INCREASINGLY CRACKING DOWN ON ONLINE COMMUNICATION
PLATFORMS. WHICH, IF WE'RE HONEST DOESN'T
BODE WELL FOR VLADIMIR PUTIN'S ONLYFANS.
IAN, YOU'RE ON TWITTER A LOT. HOW WOULD YOU FEEL IF IT WERE
SUDDENLY BANNED IN AMERICA? >> I WOULD BE THRILLED.
, YEAH. >> James: WHY WOULD YOU BE
THRILLED? >> THE ONLY REASON I'M ON THERE
IS I FEEL I HAVE TO BE FOR COMEDY REASONS, YOU KNOW WHAT I
MEAN, TO KEEP UP WITH STUFF, AND IF IT WASN'T AN OPTION ANY MORE,
IT WOULD BE GREAT, LIKE IF THEY STOPPED 1E8ING KALE, WELL, IT'S
NOT UP TO MEEVMENT,. >> James: NO, I WANT KALE, BUT
NOTHING WE CAN DO ABOUT IT. >> I LOVE IT BUT YOU KNOW,
PUTIN. >> James: WHATEVER.
AND DID YOU SEE THIS? EARLIER TODAY, THE RUSSIAN
GOVERNMENT SHARED AN OFFICIAL LIST OF COUNTRIES IT
DECLARED AS HAVING COMMITTED "UNFRIENDLY ACTIONS" AGAINST
RUSSIA. AND PEOPLE ARE MOCKING IT
BECAUSE IT INCLUDES TINY COUNTRIES LIKE LICHTENSTEIN AND
SAN MARINO. PERSONALLY, I'M NOT UPSET ABOUT
IT, I'VE HAD A HUGE BEEF WITH LICHTENSTEIN FOR YEARS.
THEY KNOW. THEY KNOW WHY.
THE LIST INCLUDED EVERY EUROPEAN UNION COUNTRY, JAPAN, THE UNITED
STATES, AUSTRALIA, AND MORE. AS MY THERAPIST WOULD SAY,
THE COMMON DENOMINATOR IN ALL OF THIS IS YOU, RUSSIA.
AND WE WANTED TO SHARE THIS WITH YOU.
SCIENTISTS NOW SAY THAT HAVING EVEN ONE DRINK PER DAY CAN
ACTUALLY SHRINK THE VOLUME OF YOUR BRAIN.
ROSEEÉ ALL DAY? MORE LIKE ROSEEÉ ALL DUHHHHH,
WHO NEEDS A BRAIN, ANYWAY? IT'S NOT LIKE WE'RE ALL WORKING
ON THE JOHN OLIVER SHOW OR ACCORDING TO THE SAME STUDY,
DRINKING FOUR ALCOHOLIC DRINKS A DAY AGED A PERSON'S BRAIN
BY MORE THAN TEN YEARS. WELL I'M NOT GONNA REMEMBER
THAT, SO WHO'S STUPID NOW? BAND, WILL THIS NEW INFORMATION
CHANGE YOUR BEHAVIOR AT ALL? DOES THIS MAKE YOU CULT DOWN.
>> WHAT INFORMATION? >> James: HA!
>> James: AND WE WANTED TO TELL YOU ABOUT THIS NEW
FINDING. RESEARCHERS ANALYZED PLAYLISTS
ON SPOTIFY TO FIND THE BEST ARTIST TO HELP DOGS FALL ASLEEP,
THAT'S RIGHT, DOGS AND THE WINNER WAS, ED SHEERAN.
YOU KNOW WHAT ARTIST MY DOG PREFERS?
ANY IDEA WHAT ARTIST MY DOG PREFERS?
PITBULL. IT'S A BLIT OF FUN, I VRNT EVEN
GOT A DOG. THAT IS ALL IT IS, IT IS A
LIGHTHEARTED BIT OF FUN. I LIKE, I DON'T HAVE A DOG.
AND THE NEWS IS BLEAK. YOU KNOW, AND I HAVEN'T EVEN GOT
A DOG. WHICH ACTUALLY IS SILLIER THAN
THE STORY. DID WE NEED THIS STUDY?
DID ANYONE ASK FOR THIS? HAS ANYONE EVER HEARD A DOG SAY
"AW MAN, I HAD A TERRIBLE SLEEP LAST NIGHT.
>> James: AND DID YOU HEAR ABOUT THIS?
A SHOWING OF "THE BATMAN" IN AUSTIN, TEXAS WAS DISRUPTED OVER
THE WEEKEND AFTER A MAN BROUGHT AND RELEASED AN
ACTUAL BAT INSIDE THE THEATER. IF YOU'RE GOING TO DO IT, DO IT
RIGHT, I WOULD HAVE BEEN MORE IMPRESSED
IF HE BROUGHT A PENGUIN. THE BAT WAS SO CONFUSED,
IT WAS LIKE, "I'M JUST TRYING
TO SEE "HOUSE OF GUCCI"!" LIKE WHAT IS THIS GIERKS HOW
DOES THIS GUY THINK THIS IS GOING TO END?
WHAT DOES HE THINK HE IS GOING TO HAPPEN.
WHAT HAVE YOU GOT IN YOUR COAT? CAN YOU CARRY MY DRINK, CARRY MY
DRINK OF POPCORN, I'VE GOT AN IDEA. ARE YOU ALL RIGHT?
>> YEAH, YEAH. >> HOW MANY.
>> JOHN, WHAT ARE YOU-- JOHN, WHAT-- WHAT ARE YOU DOING?
>> I DIDN'T KNOW THERE WOULD BE THIS MANY TRAILERS, WAIT, WAIT,
GO. I HOPE WHOEVER DID THIS IS WITH
SOMEONE RIGHT NOW GOING YOU'RE [BLEEP], MATE.
THEY COULDN'T CATCH THE BAT. COULDN'T CATCH IT EVENTUALLY IT
LEFT ON ITS OWN ACCORD WHEN IT FOUND OUT THE MOVIE WAS THREE
HOURS LONG. AND FINALLY, HERE'S SOME
>> James: IS IT THREE HOUR, BATMAN.
>> ST LONG. >> IS IT GOOD.
>> I ENJOYED IT. >> James: IS IT LIKE OH, HE'S
RICH, NO ONE KNOWS HE'S BATMAN. >> NO.
>> James: OH, IT'S A CAVE. >> HIS LIFE LOOKED LIKE IT SUCK,
LIKE IT WOULD SUCK TO BE BRUCE LANE.
>> James: WHAT? >> YEAH.
>> James: WHY. >> HE IS BUMMED OUT,.
>> James: HE'S BUMMED OUT. >> YEAH, BUT NOT THE WAY BRUCE
WAYNE-- . >> James: WHY IS HE BUMMED
OUT. >> BECAUSE HE IS A GOTH KID, HE
IS EMO AND GOTHAM SUCKS. >> James: IF YOU HAVE ALL THAT
MONEY, GET OUT OF GOTHAM. YOU KNOW WHAT I MEAN, IF YOU
HAVE GOT THAT SORTED OF MONEY LYING AROUND, YOU NEVER SEE HIM
LIKE OH, I'M AWAY THERE WEEKEND. IF I HAD BRUCE WAYNE MONEY, I
WOULD ALWAYS BE LIKE WHAT, THEY PUT THE LIGHT UP YEAH, BUT I'M
IN MY CHATEAU, I CAN'T GET BACK. >> I DON'T LIKE THE IDEA OF
THIS. I LIKE MY BRUCE WAYNES TO BE
BRUCE WAYNE. I LIKE HIM TO BE LIKE, YOU KNOW
WHAT I MEAN. >> YEAH, YOU'RE NOT GOING TO GET
ANY OF THAT. IT IS A BIG MOAP FEST BUT IT'S
SICK, THE ACTION IS SICK. >> James: I'M SURE THE ACTION
IS SICK. I'M SURE-- I'M SURE IT'S ILL.
>> NOT WELL, UNWELL. >> James: WHO IS THE ALFRED?
>> OH, IT'S ANDY CERTIFICATEKIS. >> James: LOVE THAT.
>> SO THE CIRCUS IN TOWN, HE DOESN'T PEP HIM UP.
>> James: PEPS HIM UP, OH, BRUCE.
>> NOT EVEN CLOSE. NOT EVEN CLOSE.
IS IT A PEPPY MOMENT AT ALL BECAUSE I CAN'T THINK OF IT.
>> NOT ONE PEPPY, THERE IS ONE PEPPY MOMENT WHEN COLIN FERRELL
HAS HIS FEET TOGETHER AND WALKS LIKE A PENGUIN, PRETTY SILLY,
SILLY MOMENT. >> James: CUZ I FELT LIKE THE
LAST CHRIS-- WHAT IS THE ONE WHERE ELITE UP A BAT ON THE
BRIDGE, WHICH ONE WAS THAT? DARK KNIGHT RISES, THE THIRD
ONE, RIGHT, THAT IS WHEN IF FLIPPED FOR ME.
>> YEAH. >> James: THAT WAS LIKE, THAT
IS A LOT OF WORK. >> YEAH.
>> James: YOU CAN'T GET THAT DONE IN A COUPLE OF HOURS.
YOU CANNOT GET THE IMAGERY TOGETHER, THE MAN HOURS OF
PEOPLE TO BUILD A BAT ON A BRIDGE.
>> YEAH. >> James: SOMEONE IS GOING TO
GO WHAT YOU GUYS UP TO. DO YOU KNOW WHAT I MEAN, LIKE I
DON'T EVEN KNOW WHERE YOU START BUT I KNOW WHAT IT IS LIKE WHEN
WE TRY AND DO EVEN SOMETHING IN THE PARKING LOT.
>> CARPOOL MUSICAL TAKES SIX DAYS AND.
>> James: AND THEN HE IS LIKE IT'S ON FIRE, THAT IS FOR ME, SO
I WAS EXCITED WITH THE NEW ONE, I WANT TO GET BACK TO THE OLD
BATTEDMAN, LIKE KAYNE, I WANT THE OLD KAYNE, I WANT THE OLD
BATMAN. BATMAN.
♪ THAT IS WHAT YOU WANT. DOES HE EVER PUNCH ANYONE AND IT
GOES K AP OW. >> NO BUT AT ONE POINT HE YELLS

IT'S GOOD, I KNOW EVERYTHING WE SAID MAKES IT SEEM LIKE IT'S
NOT. BUT.
>> ST JRS I WILL WATCH IT ON A PLANE.
>> YEAH. >> James: AND FINALLY HERE
SOME HISTORIC NEWS FROM MY HOMELAND.
QUEEN ELIZABETH WILL NO LONGER BE RESIDING IN BUCKINGHAM
PALACE. THAT'S RIGHT, THE QUEEN HAS
OFFICIALLY MOVED TO WINDSOR CASTLE MAKING THE CASTLE HER
PERMANENT HOME AND RESIDENCE. IT'S THE AGE-OLD QUESTION WE'VE
ALL DEBATED. "DO I LIVE IN MY PALACE OR
MY CASTLE? NOW I DON'T LIKE HELPING ANYBODY
MOVE BUT IT WOULD BE COOL TO SPLIT A PIZZA WITH THE QUEEN,
LIKE ON THE FLOOR OF AN UNPACKED BALLROOM, YOU KNOW.
I'M TOD THE MOVE WENT SMOOTHLY, WE HAVE A PICTURE OF THE QUEEN'S
MOVIE TRUCK RIGHT HERE. AND THASES A THE NEWS.
WE'LL BE RIGHT BACK, EVERYBODY.
>> James: WELCOME BACK. >> James: LET'S MEET OUR GUESTS
TONIGHT! HE STARS IN "ATLANTA,"
LAKEITH STANFIELD! >> Reggie: IT'S LAKEITH
STANFIELD. HE'S THE LEAD SINGER FOR
"ONE REPUBLIC," RYAN TEDDER! RRS IT'S RYAN TEDDER.
>> James: NICE TO SEE YOU HERE.
TANKS FOR COMING TO SEE US. HOW ARE WE DOING?
IN HE IS. LOOK AT THAT.
>> SURPRISE. >> James: I HONESTLY THOUGHT
YOU WERE GOING TO GO THE WHOLE SHOW.
AND I WAS LIKE. >> OH, DAMN, I 14UD HAVE KEPT IT
ON.3 >> James: NO, IT IS ALL UP TO
YOU. HOW ARE YOU DOING, SO THRILLED,
BOTH HERE FOR THE FIRST TIME, NOW LAKEITH, I DON'T KNOW IF YOU
KNOW THIS, YOUR NAME WAS TRENDING THE OTHER DAY FROM THIS
PHOTO, FROM REPLICA MAN, THE MAGAZINE POSTED ONLINE, LOTS OF
PEOPLE-- I LOVE IT. HOW DID WE LAND ON THIS LOOK.
WHAT DID YOU THINK OF THE AMOUNT OF ATTENTION THAT IT GRABBED?
>> WELL, I HAD A-- I NEVER LIKE TO WEAR SHORTS, SO I DECIDED IN
THAT PHOTO SHOOT I WOULD CHALLENGE THAT INSECURITY AND DO
SOMETHING DIFFERENT THAT MADE ME FEEL UNCOMFORTABLE BUT THAT
WOULD BE REWARDING AT THE SAME TIME.
SO I THREW ON THE SHORTS, THROUGH ON THE SOCKS AND I WAS
ACTUALLY LOOKING AT SOMETHING ON THE WALL AND THE GUY SNAPPED THE
PHOTO AND I ALWAYS SIT LIKE, I LIKE TO BE COMFORTABLE SO I SIT
LIKE THIS. AND BOOM, THERE IT GOES, LIKE A
LITTLE HAPPY ACCIDENTED. >> James: THESE ARE GOOD LEGS.
>> THANK YOU. >> I CAN CONFIRM THAT, THOSE ARE
GOOD LEGS. >> James: RYAN, HAVE YOU GOT
THE LEGS TO PULL THIS OFF? >> I LIKE SITTING LIKE THAT TOO,
LET ME SEE. >> James: YEAH, I THINK YOU
DO. >> SOCCER LEGS.
>> James: I THINK YOU DO. >> YEAH.
>> James: I ACTUALLY THINK I'M AT MY BEST FROM THE KNEE DOWN.
>> YOU HAVE AMAZING CALFS. >> James: FROM THE KNEE DOWN.
>> LEG CHALLENGE, EVERYBODY GET OUT THERE, PUT YOUR LEGS OUT
THERE. OR DO SOMETHING THAT YOU ARE
AFRAID TO DO BUT NOW YOU ARE NOT AFRAID TO DO IT NO MORE.
>> James: THAT'S IT, THAT IS VERY, VERY GOOD ADVICE FOR
EVERYBODY. NOW RYAN, OF COURSE MOST PEOPLE
KNOW YOU AS A SINGER-SONGWRITER BUT YOU STARTED OUT, FIRST OF
ALL WHEN YOU WERE AT SCHOOL, DID YOU DO LOTS OF MUSICAL THEATER.
>> YES. >> James: WHAT SORT OF SHOWS
DID YOU DO. >> OKLAHOMA, FUNNY ENOUGH, SOME
LIKE IT HOT. >> James: OH YEAH.
>> I WAS ACTUALLY IN THE MID LATE '90S, CENTRAL OKLAHOMA OUT
IN THE COUNTRY. I WAS IN FULL DRAG WHICH WAS
REALLY POPULAR AT THE TIME. SO YEAH, THAT WAS, FROM THE
FOOTBALL FIELD STRAIGHT TO REHEARSAL AND BACK.
I WAS BASICALLY THAT GUY FROM GLEE.
LITERALLY GLEE CAME OUT AND IT WAS FIN, THE NAME OF THE
CHARACTER, LITERALLY I WOULD SNEAK FROM FOOTBALL PRACTICE AND
BASKETBALL INTO THE THEATER, THROW ON THE DRESS, DO THE GIG
AND THEN YEAH, THE REST IS HISTORY.
>> James: I LOVE THAT, MY SCHOOL WAS THE SAME EXCEPT FOR
THE FOOTBALL PRACTICE. I DIDN'T TAKE PART IN THAT YOU
RECENTLY WENT HOME, BACK TO VICTDERVILLE AND YOU SPOKE TO
YOUR HIGH SCHOOL DRAMA TEACHER AND THE STUDENTS.
WHAT WAS THAT LIKE FOR YOU, MUST HAVE BEEN QUITE AN AMAZING
MOMENT. >> IS THAT GOOSE, IT IS HOT,
YOUR WHOLE SUIT IS AWESOME. >> James: YEAH, MAN.
>> I WENT BACK HOME AND IT WAS A BEAUTIFUL THING, IT WAS WEIRD
BECAUSE I GOT SOME SUCCESS AND I COME BACK IN THE NICE CAR, HAD A
LAMBORGHINI, I PULLED BACK UP HOME AND IT WAS A STARK CONTRAST
OF WHERE I CAME FROM TO WHERE I PLAYED IT TO, WAS ASTOUNDING TO
ME AND A BEAUTIFUL POETIC METAPHOR FOR HOW FAR HI COME.
IT WAS DIFFICULT TO GET OUTSIDE OF MY HOMETOWN.
I NEVER THOUGHT I WAS GOING TO GO OUTSIDE LET A ENLO SEE THE
WORLD. SO IT WAS A BEAUTIFUL THING TO
BRING BACK A GIFT TO WHICH LIVE FROM.
AND NOT ONLY THE GIFT OF YOU CAN DO THIS AND YOU REQUEST MAKE IT
OUT, BUT ALSO I COULD TALK TO THE PEOPLE AND DIRECTLY TELL
THEM DON'T THINK YOU CAN'T DO SOMETHING.
CUZ YOU CAN BECAUSE I WAS EXACTLY WHERE YOU ARE.
SO GOING BACK TO MY DRAMA TEACHER, SHE WAS ONE OF THE ONLY
TEACHERS I REALLY LIKED. I HAD A HARD TIME FOLLOWING
INSTRUCTION. >> SAME, SAME, THAT WAS THE ONE
WHO GOT ME LITERALLY, SHE IS WHY I AM HERE TODAY, SORRY TO CUT
YOU OFF. >> SO I GOT TO SIT DOWN WITH
HER, SHE INTRODUCED ME TO ALL HER STUDENTS AND IT WAS COOL TO
TALK TO THEM, AND BASICALLY SAID KEEP GOING.
SO IT WAS FUN. >> James: IT IS AN AMAZING
THING WHEN YOU GO BACK TO SCHOOL OR HOME, ARE YOU SUDDENLY AWARE
OF THE ROAD THAT YOU TRAVELED WHICH WHEN ARE YOU TRAVELING THE
WHOLE TIME, YOU DON'T EXPERIENCE THAT, I MEAN NOW RYAN YOU HAVE
WRITTEN SONGS, SOME OF THE BIGGEST ARTISTS IN THE WORLD.
WHEN ARE YOU GOING TO A STUDIO AND WITH SOME OF THESE, LIKE
WHEN ADELE AND PEOPLE LIKE THAT COME IN, WHAT DO YOU DO, DAY ONE
TO SET THE SCENE BEFORE YOU STAFORT D WRITING A SONG, WHAT
DO YOU DO? >> SMELL IS IMPORTANT, AS THE
SAGE THAT WAS UNBEING BACKSTAGE, SAGE IS IMPORTANT, ALL LIGHT,
LIGHT CANDLES. I SHOW UP 30 MINUTES BEFORE THE
SESSION AND LET'S RALLY JUST THINK ABOUT THAT ARTIST, WHAT DO
I WANT TO HEAR THEM SAY, WHAT HAVE THEY NOT SAID, ARE THEY IN
A RELATIONSHIP. ONCE THEY SHOW UP, THE FIRST
HOUR OF EVERY WRITING SESSION IS THE MOST IMPORTANT BECAUSE THE
ARTIST TELLS YOU WHAT YOU ARE GOING TO WRITE ABOUT, THEY DON'T
KNOW THEY ARE TELLING YOU BUT IF YOU ARE LIKE ADELE OR MILEY, YOU
BURST THROUGH THE DOOR AND ARE SPILLING YOUR GUTS.
IM SITTING HERE LISTENING, THAT IS THE PHRASE, THAT IS WHAT WE
ARE GOING TO WRITE TODAY. SONG WRITING IS 50% THERAPY AND
BECOME EMPATHETIC AND LISTENING AND THE REST IS LIKE TALENT AND
ACTIVATION AND ALL THE OTHER THINGS.
>> LAKEITH, ATLANTA IS BACK, THE THIRD SEASON.
I CAN'T WAIT TO SEE IT. WHAT ARE SOME OF THE PLACES,
SOME OF THE PLACES YOU SHOT THE SHOW WHAT WERE YOUR FAVORITE
PLACES AND WHAT CAN WE EXPECT IN THIS NEW SEASON.
>> WE SHOT IN PARIS, AMSTERDAM, LONDON.
ONE OF THE BEST PLACES FOR ME WAS AMSTERDAM, I LOVE BEING OUT
THERE, EXPERIENCE, EXPERIMENTING WITH THE EXPERIENCE IN
CONSCIOUSNESS AND SEEING WHERE YOU CAN GO, EXPERIMENT WITH
THINGS THERE, IT IS MUCH MORE LIBERALLY ACCEPTED IN CERTAIN
PARTS SO I LOVE THAT PART. AN WE SHOT IN THE RED LIGHT
DISTRICT WHICH WAS REALLY INTERESTING BECAUSE THERE WERE
PEOPLE WHO, GET THIS, LIVE THERE, PEOPLE LIVE THERE.
>> James: YEAH, ARE YOU IN SOHO.
>> I DIDN'T KNOW PEOPLE LIVED THERE AND THERE WAS THERE GUY
LIVED BOFD WHERE WE WERE SHOOTING AND WAS KIND OF
HARASSING US THE WHOLE TIME. HE WAS TRYING TO GET IN WITH THE
RED LIGHT STUFF, AND WE WERE LIKE NO, WE'RE FILMING.
OH, OKAY, BUT I STILL WANT TO GET IN, NO, YOU CAN'T GET IN.
>> James: YOU AND DONALD TRUMP, DID YOU CLICK STRAIGHT
AWAY, HOW DID YOU MEET. >> YEAH, IT WAS A TRIP BECAUSE
WE MET A LITTLE HOLLYWOOD GET TOGETHER WHERE YOU GO TO NETWORK
AND ALL THE UPCOMING ACTORS AND ACT RESES AND DIRECTORS
CONGREGATE AND I WAS JUST DANCING BY MYSELF, BECAUSE I
DON'T REALLY LOOK AT OTHER PEOPLE FROM OUT FRONT, DO I, SO
I JUMPED ON THE STAGE, STARTED DANCING AND THEN I LOOKED UP AND
HE WAS LIKE I THINK YOU ARE PERFECT FOR THIS ROLE.
>> James: JUST THAT, JUST ON A DANCE ROUTINE.
>> YEAH, BECAUSE I THINK HE UNDERSTOOD DARIUS WOULD NEED
CERTAIN LAYERS THAT I WAS EXPRESSING AT THE TIME.
>> James: I LOVE THAT I CAN NOT WAIT FOR THE SHOW, THE THIRD
SEASON OF ATLANTA PREMIERS SUNDAY MARCH 24th.
OF FX AND THE FEKS DAY ON HULU. STICK AROUND, WE'LL BE RIGHT
BACK, EVERYBODY.
>> James: WELCOME BACK.
WE'RE HERE WITH LAKEITH STANFIELD AND RYAN
TEDDER, WE LOVE ONE REPUBLIC WEST COAST, THE SONG TOOK YOU
FIVE YEARS TO FINISH. >> YEAH.
>> James: WHICH HAVING NEVER WRITTEN A SONG I DON'T KNOW BUT
IT DOES FEEL LIKE A LONG TIME TO WRITE A SONG, IS THAT TYPICAL,
WHY FIVE YEARS. >> IT'S NOT TYPICAL.
WHAT HAPPENED IS I HAD THE CHORUS FIVE YEARS AGO AND I
DIDN'T HAVE THE VERSE TO IT, WHICH HAPPENS A LOT OF TIMES.
I APOLOGIZE, HI THE CHORUS IN TEN SECONDS AND THE VERSE TOOK
SIX MONTHS BUT WITH WEST COAST, I HAD IT, WE PLAYED IT, SOME
PEOPLE, THE RECORD LABEL, AND SOMEBODY WAS LIKE THIS SONG IS
INCREDIBLE BUT I DON'T THINK I SOUNDS LIKE YOU GUYS. AND I GOT
SUPERINSECURE BECAUSE THAT ONE PERSON SAID THAT ONE THING, AND
I SHELFED IT AND WAS LIKE I'M NOT GOING TO RETURN TO THIS FOR
AWHILE.
AND EVENTUALLY IT CIRCLED BACK AROUND AND POPPED UP JUST ON A
DEMO REAL AND I LISTENED TO THE CHORUS AND I WAS LIKE THIS MIGHT
BE MY FAVORITE THING WE HAVE DONE IN FIVE YEARS, I WILL
FINISH IT. >> James: AND THEN YOU ARE
GOING TO GO OUT BE THE ROAD, THE NEVER ENDING SUMMER TOUR, WHAT
ARE SOME OF YOUR MUST-HAVES WHEN YOU ARE ON THE TOUR?
WHAT ARE THE HOME COMFORTS THAT YOU NEED?
>> CANNED E8D-- CANDLES, SOLID WI-FI AND I TRAVEL WITH-- HE
KNOWS. I TRAVEL WITH A 1963 AIR STREAM
THAT I TURNED INTO A RECORDING STUDIO.
>> James: THE ONE OUTSIDE THE HOUSE.
YOU TAKE THAT ON THE TOUR. >> I TAKE THAT ON TOUR, SO I DID
SPEAKING OF ADELE, ADELE, U2-RBGS WORKED ON ED SHEERAN
STUFF IN THERE, ONE REPUBLIC STUFF IN THERE.
SO BE O THE ROAD I GO CRAZY, I HATE VENUES.
I HATE SITTING IN ARENAS OR SHEDS OR THEATERS, THEY STRESS
ME OUT, I GET CRAZY ANXIETY SO I HAVE TO HAVE A PLACE TO GO, AND
WORK AND STAY BUSY, WHEN I WAS A KID MY SOME SAID A IDLE MINE STD
DEVIL'S WORKSHOP, SO I WORKED ON SONGS THROUGHOUT TOURS TO KEEP
MY SANITY. >> THAT WOULD BE PRINTING BIT
COYNE, AS YOU KNOW. >> LAKEITH ONE OF 9 GREAT THINGS
ABOUT BEING AN ACTOR, YOU GET TO GO IN DIFFERENT ENVIRONMENTS AND
LEARN NEW SKILLS AND YOU HAD TO LEARN TO RIDE A HORSE FOR THE
HARDER THEY FALL. YOU SAID IT WAS A LIFE CHANGING
EXPERIENCE FOR YOU, WHY, IN WHAT WAY.
>> THE HORSE IS A BEAUTIFUL, MAGICAL CREATURES THAT REQUIRE
YOU TO STEP UP TO THE PLATE AND MEET THEM HALFWAY.
AND I WENT IN A STATE OF MIND AT THE TIME GOING IN WHERE I NEEDED
THAT EXTRA PUSH. I DIDN'T KNOW WHERE I WAS GO FOG
GET IT AND I JUMPED UP ON THE HORSE AND I HAD RESERVATIONS AND
THE HORSE HAD RESERVATIONS AND IT BUCKED ME OFF. AND I FELL
DOWN AND THEY WERE LIKE YOU DON'T HAVE TO GET BACK ON, I WAS
LIKE WHAT DO YOU MEAN, OF COURSE I'M GETTING ON.
I REALIZE HAVE I TO TAKE CONTROL.
I'M SO CONNECTED TO THE BEING I DON'T WANT TO TAKE CONTROL TOO
MUCH BECAUSE I DON'T WANT TO HURT IT BUT HAVE I TO DO IT THE
RIGHT WAY, I DO THAT, AND BEFORE YOU KNOW T WITHIN A COUPLE OF
WEEKS I'M ACTUALLY RIDING A HORSE AND IT FEELS LIKE I'M
FLYING AND CRYING BECAUSE IT IS SO AMAZING.
AND I LOVE HORSES. >> James: I LOVE THAT.
REGGIE, DO YOU HAVE A QUESTION FOR OUR GUESTS THIS EVENING?
>> YES, I DO. TONIGHT'S QUESTION GOES TO OUR
GUEST THIS EVENING. ALSO IF YOU WERE CONFRONTEDDED
WITH A FORCE OF THE DARKNESS, AND THE FORCE OF THE LIGHTEDNESS
AND THE FORCE OF THE GRAYNESS, WHAT WOULD YOU SAY TO ALL OF
THEM AS THEY APPROACH? >> BE HONEST, WHAT ARE YOU
WATCHING ON NETFLIX AT THIS MOMENT.
>> James: OKAY, LA KEETD. >> I WOULD SAY HELLO, OLD
