In a much more submissive role this time around, it's an erotic thriller. She's Nicole Kidman plays the CAO of a high-tech firm in New York. She's happily married. It would seem like Elneobon deres is her husband. She's got two daughters. And she's got harboring all sorts of fantasies apparently that

You know what? It's out there. I kept on imagining Keith Urban like watching this. What could it say? I wonder if he visited the set. Oh, I don't know. Yeah. I mean, the guy is like at least half her age and she bears it all. Right. Bill, by the way, Nicole Kimman, like talk about busy. She's constantly working, right? She's one thing after another. And I was taking risks. I got to say, this is a very risky part for her. And yet,

And audiences have loved it, critics have loved it, and they're sure, sure. Doubtless when the Golden Globe are probably an Oscar. All right. Moving on, let's play a little bit of this, Jimmy. I can't wait to plan this. I'm going to plan your wedding. How about June 1st? Hey, well, I'm going to go check us in. I'm going to go get us checked in. Oh, no.

We've double booked your weddings. What? Are you the wedding planner? You never even called this place? I am social anxiety. You get anxiety from dialing a phone? An exasperated Will Ferrell. And Reese Witherspoon Bill, it's a new comedy called, You're cordially invited and it'll start to circle this on your calendar if you like Will Ferrell. It'll be on prime January 30th and a restoring comedy because lately she's been doing a lot of serious stuff. And Will Ferrell is no stranger to the comedy world himself.

He's another guy, just keeps on going all the time, always funny. You probably were elped to death on a grave that kept on showing basically every second show.

But he's unreal. He still cracks me up. Reese Witherspoon. By the way, they just wrapped another season of shooting the morning show. So we're looking forward to that with a Reese and who else is in that with a Reese and Jennifer Anderson. Jennifer, Jennifer Anderson. Bill, let's play a little bit of a very funny guy, Ronnie Chang. The biggest holiday for Chinese people, Chinese New Year. When we see each other during Chinese New Year, the way we greet each other.

is we say kong sifatai or kong mevatoy in Cantonese. I'm sure you've heard that at least prohibitively, right? kong sifatai, kong sifatai, kong sifatai means hope you get rich. That's not happy New Year. Ronnie Chang, he's back with something new, Bill.

It's called, yes, and it's a new Netflix comedy special, but it's hysterical, but Ronnie, I mean, we all know him as a daily show kind of guy. One of the, I mean, he films him often, but he's a bright, bright guy. A lot of his text here has been basically like really different. I take the economic slant and looking at things like he kind of alludes to there.

But he talks about trying to meet some Maggie guys halfway, and talking about how they would say, well, I would die for my country. And James says, why don't you just do math for your country? Do your homework, dying is easy. Math is hard. But he takes that kind of approach. His father was an academic, and all the rest his father never liked. He didn't think he cared much about his life.

Friday night, the Grammy Awards, they looked at all the stories behind the songs at one song of the year. Then last night they focused on the performances, some of the memorable performances, Grammy performances and collaborations over the years of that time. I'm going to play a little clip here in just a second of Sting talking about how he wrote every breath you take. But before I let you go, Bill, did you hear the news about the passing of Linda Lavin?

Yeah, I was way back when you were mentioning her. You saw her show brought back in the 80s. Yeah, brought a Neil Simon play called Broadway bound. Yeah, for my first night in New York City. And you know what? I don't did you see that? Did you see the latest Ray Romano Lisa Kudrow thing? No good deed? She she was in that she she played it like a nosy neighbor in the neighborhood.

She was always walking her dog. But yeah, an amazing career. She did a lot of Broadway, did a lot of theater and Alice is terrific. Alice was a waitress. Everybody loved us. Bill, thank you for this and we're chatting tomorrow, right? That's Bill Brownstein from the Gazette.
