  • Julia. - Yeah.

  • - [Barry] We've brought you here today

  • - [Barry] One of you will be hooked up to the machine

  • while the other asks questions.

  • - Okay. - Okay.

  • - [Barry] And then you'll switch.

  • - Yep.

  • - [Barry] So, who wants to be in the hot seat first?

  • - Julia does.

  • - No, Will does.

  • - I was lying. - I do!

  • I would love to be in the hot seat first. [chuckles]

  • - Good luck, little sucker! [Will laughing]

  • [crash] Does this look slimming?

  • - It does.

  • - Barry, I noticed you're using an UltraScribe.

  • - Who warned him?

  • - Barry. [laughing]

  • My heart is racing,

  • and I have done nothing wrong. - I know, so is mine.

  • - I shoplifted once when I was like eight years old.

  • - I think you're going to jail.

  • [buttons clicking]

  • Okay, Will, so we need to calibrate the machine,

  • so I'm just gonna ask you

  • some pretty straightforward questions.

  • Please answer honestly.

  • Is your name John William Ferrell?

  • - Yes.

  • - Were you born on July 16th, 1967?

  • - Yes.

  • - Are you about to take a lie detector test?

  • - Hmm.

  • Not when you ask it like that.

  • Yes, I am.

  • - Okay.

  • Barry?

  • - We are ready.

  • [crash]

  • - Barry, where'd you get your bracelet?

  • Nevermind. - He shoplifted it.

  • At USC, you were a member

  • of the Delta Tau Delta fraternity.

  • - Yes.

  • - Are you still an active alumni?

  • - No, not really.

  • - Did you ever get hazed?

  • - Yes.

  • - [Julia] Was Delta Tau Delta the cool fraternity?

  • - Not so much.

  • - Oh. - Kinda middle of the pack.

  • We threw really good parties. - [Julia] Uh-huh.

  • - But that's about all we could do.

  • - What was the cool fraternity?

  • Did you wish you were in another one?

  • - Not really, but the cool ones were like SAE, ATO.

  • - Right. - Sigma Chi, Beta.

  • There's a long list of the cool ones.

  • [Julia laughing]

  • - [Julia] Do you think you got hazed more than I did?

  • - Yes.

  • Yes.

  • Did you ever have warm Velveeta cheese

  • poured down the front of your underwear?

  • - That's so funny, I did!

  • But that was just yesterday.

  • Had nothing to do with...

  • Okay.

  • Did your time in the frat

  • inform your portrayal of this character,

  • Frank the Tank from "Old School?"

  • - I would say...

  • I would say yes. - Okay.

  • - There was a lot to draw upon

  • from my experience in the fraternity,

  • specifically that face.

  • - Hey, Will, do you think you could out-drink me?

  • - No question.

  • Wouldn't even be a chance.

  • - Ah. - For you.

  • - [Julia] Okay, have you ever gone streaking?

  • - Yes I have.

  • - Okay, Barry?

  • - True.

  • - My man!

  • [Barry and Julia laughing]

  • - [Julia] You once held a job as a bank teller, right?

  • - Yes.

  • - Did you ever steal money,

  • even a couple cents, from the bank?

  • - No, I did not.

  • - That's true, sir.

  • - Would you tell women you worked at a bank to impress them?

  • [Will laughing]

  • Yeah, that is the question.

  • - I don't think I ever, no.

  • - Your wife is Swedish. - Yes.

  • - [Julia] Would you prefer Sweden's healthcare system

  • over ours?

  • - Yes, I would. - [Julia] Yeah.

  • Does your comedy translate to Swedes?

  • - Not so much,

  • but it translates to the Swedish healthcare system.

  • [Julia laughing]

  • They're some of my biggest fans.

  • - [Julia] Aw, are some of them here today, Will?

  • - No, but I'm just, they'll be watching this.

  • [Julia laughing]

  • The Minister of Health,

  • he just thinks I'm the funniest thing ever.

  • - [Julia] Do you have a favorite Swedish swear word?

  • - You can say things like fi fan

  • or fasiken, or skit.

  • - What do all those words mean?

  • - Fi fan is like, ah [bleep].

  • - [Julia] Uh-huh.

  • - And skit is just [bleep],

  • but that gets kinda confusing,

  • 'cause they use that as a positive too.

  • They'll be like, "skit bro!" "[bleep] yeah!"

  • [laughing] Oh!

  • - Hmm. - [Julia] Nice.

  • - So it can work both ways.

  • - [Julia] Okay.

  • - Our children use it all the time.

  • - Skit. - Skit!

  • - Skit. - Skit!

  • - [Julia] Skit! - Skit bro!

  • - Skit bro! - [bleep] yeah!

  • - [bleep] yeah!

  • Got it.

  • - You were a "Saturday Night Live" cast--

  • "Saturday Night" cast--

  • - "Saturday Night Alive" cast member.

  • - [Julia] "Saturday Night Alive."

  • - Everyone always drops the A.

  • - Yeah, I know.

  • "Saturday Night Alive" cast member.

  • It's really SNA then, isn't it?

  • - It's SNA, yeah.

  • - [Julia] From 1995 to 2002. - Yes.

  • - [Julia] Do you still watch SNL every week?

  • - No, I do not.

  • - Barry?

  • - That's very true.

  • [Will laughs]

  • - Would you say your love life was similar to this man?

  • That's Pete Davidson.

  • - No, but I would say,

  • his body tattoos are similar to mine.

  • - [Julia] Yeah, that's the first thing I thought.

  • - Yeah.

  • - [Julia] When I saw that photo.

  • - Yeah. - [Julia] Yeah.

  • I love a good tank in the summer.

  • - [Julia] [laughs] You are known for staying in character

  • even when you weren't on stage.

  • Did that ever piss people off?

  • - Yes, it pissed off some of the show's producers,

  • it pissed off...

  • some of Puff Daddy's people.

  • Specifically Suge Knight.

  • - [Julia] Is that true?

  • - Barry?

  • - Absolutely true.

  • [Julia laughing]

  • - That's crazy! - Yeah.

  • - [Julia] Did you ever purposely try

  • to make another cast member break character

  • and laugh during a live show?

  • - Constantly.

  • Yeah that was pretty much the goal.

  • - [Julia] As part of the Five-Timers Hosting Club,

  • did they let you keep the robe?

  • - They didn't give me a robe.

  • - Those [bleep]. - Yeah.

  • But I do have a beautiful terry cloth robe.

  • - [Julia] Oh!

  • - From the Swedish Minister of Health.

  • - See, and then you bring it back around.

  • - Yeah.

  • - [Julia] You were considered a member of the frat pack.

  • - Hmm.

  • - [Julia] Which includes these men among some others.

  • - Which by the way, everyone is still talking

  • about the frat pack.

  • That's the director of The Joker, Todd Phillips.

  • Didn't quite get a call for that one.

  • - [laughing] Could I have been a part of that frat pack?

  • - No.

  • - Because?

  • - It's frat pack.

  • It's not frat pack sorority gaggle.

  • It's frat pack.

  • - People have often confused you for this man, Chad Smith.

  • - Chad Smith, drummer for the Red Hot Chili Peppers.

  • - [Julia] Oh wow, look at that.

  • - See the resemblance?

  • - No, but I do kind of.

  • - I think more people come to Chad

  • saying he looks like me, than vice versa.

  • - [Julia] Oh, really? - Yeah.

  • - [Julia] Are you a better drummer than he is?

  • - Yes, 100%.

  • - Is this true?

  • - He believes that to be true.

  • [Will laughing]

  • - Are you a better cowbeller than he is?

  • - Yes, I think so. - [Julia] Yeah.

  • - Yeah.

  • - [Julia] Do you own a cowbell?

  • - I don't think I do.

  • Yeah.

  • ♪ I know what you're getting for your birthday on July 16th ♪

  • - Can you play something for us on this cowbell?

  • - Sure.

  • No, I can't play it.

  • - That's a lie.

  • - Oh, I'm sorry, I can play it.

  • You caught, Barry caught me.

  • [loud clanging]

  • - Okay, that's enough. [loud clanging]

  • Thanks, that is dynamite.

  • - That's how you play the cowbell.

  • - Did you lie at any point during this lie detector test

  • and we didn't catch you?

  • - I don't think so.

  • - [Julia] Barry, is that true?

  • - That is true.

  • - [Julia] All right, look at you.

  • You're a free man.

  • - Wow, that feels good.

  • Justice! [crash]

  • - I bet that's attractive.

  • This does make you nervous.

  • - Right?

  • - All right I did it.

  • I killed him.

  • [crash]

  • - Julia?

  • - What?

  • - To calibrate the machine,

  • I'm going to ask some straightforward questions.

  • Please answer honestly.

  • Is your full name

  • Julia Scarlet Elizabeth Louis-Dreyfus Hall?

  • - No.

  • - Wow.

  • - It's not.

  • It's Julia Scarlet E. Louis-Dreyfus Hall.

  • Next.

  • - Were you born in New York City?

  • - Yes.

  • - In a van?

  • - Uh-uh.

  • - Regular hospital?

  • - Yeah, regular hospital.

  • - Are you nervous?

  • - Yes, that's why I had to have a few

  • [clicks tongue three times] before.

  • - Barry are we ready?

  • - We are ready, Will.

  • - All right, let's get started.

  • You were a member

  • of the prestigious Meow Improv Comedy Troupe--

  • - You betcha. - At Northwestern.

  • - Yes I was.

  • - Do you think that I would have fit in at Meow?

  • - Oh yes. - Hmm.

  • Does Zip Zap Zop actually

  • help you become a better improvisor?

  • - No, what is that?

  • - You know zip, [claps] zip [claps] zap [claps] zop [claps].

  • - [Julia] I never did that.

  • - I never did either. - So the answer is no.

  • - Do you need to like the Broadway show "Cats" to join Meow?

  • - No, I'm going to say if you like the Broadway show "Cats,"

  • you're not a good fit for Meow.

  • - Have you seen the new "Cats" movie?

  • - Nope!

  • - [Will] Do you plan on it?

  • - Nope!

  • - Ever?

  • - [clicks tongue] No.

  • - [Will] Would I make a good CGI cat?

  • - Oh 100%.

  • [Will laughs]

  • - [Will] You've stated that the best way

  • to make your longterm relationship work

  • is by going on adventures.

  • - Yes.

  • - Would you ever take your husband on a ski trip?

  • - Yes, we're going skiing in a couple weeks.

  • Why, do you want to come along or something?

  • - I'm just saying, it'd be fun.

  • - We, we haven't decided-- - [Will] I think we still

  • have time for-- - where we're going yet.

  • - [Will] It would just be fun. - Just say that that's true.

  • - [Will] But I'll, I can check with your publicist

  • as soon as you guys know.

  • - Sure.

  • - There's no law that says that I can't check into the hotel

  • at the same place you guys do. - [Julia] No of course not!

  • - Right.

  • - Absolutely, as soon as we lock it down.

  • - [Will] Firm up plans? - Firm up plans,

  • I will let you know.

  • - [Will] Thank you.

  • - 'Cause they are not firmed up yet.

  • - [Will] Great. - Don't say anything.

  • - [Will] Oh, I can talk to Brad too,

  • I can double check with him. - No, he's sick.

  • - He, you won't see him again.

  • He has a terrible, terrible flu, and cold.

  • He has 103 degree fever right now, so you won't see him.

  • - Barry is that true?

  • - That's not a yes or no question,

  • so it's hard to determine.

  • - Does your husband Brad

  • have a terrible 103 degree temperature right now?

  • - Yes! - [Barry] That's a lie.

  • - Bingo!

  • - That is such [bleep].

  • That thing is broken, FYI!

  • Your machine is absolutely, oh look at that.

  • All right.

  • - [Will] If we were on a ski trip--

  • - Yeah.

  • - And spotted an approaching avalanche,

  • would you stick around to make sure I survived?

  • - No.

  • - [laughs] Barry?

  • - True.

  • - [Will] And I don't blame you.

  • Would I be a good survival partner if we became stranded?

  • - Do you have any skills?

  • - You're tall, you could-- - [Will] No, not really.

  • You could pick coconuts, right?

  • - Yeah.

  • - Yeah, I don't think we should be stranded anywhere.

  • No offense.

  • - Okay, all right.

  • I've got a lot of body hair.

  • - What does that do for me? - [Will] Anyway, yeah.

  • - Barry do you have a lot of body hair?

  • - I do.

  • - Thank you.

  • Is it true you were the youngest female cast member

  • to join SNL?

  • - Yes. - How old?

  • - [Julia] 21. - Wow.

  • Was that your best job?

  • [laughing]

  • - [laughs] Yes, yes, it was my best job.

  • - Barry! - Lie.

  • [laughing] - Boom!

  • Should this man, - Uh-oh.

  • - [Will] Larry David, - Yeah.

  • - have had more sketches on the air.

  • He was a writer on SNL. [mumbles]

  • - He was a writer on SNL for--

  • - [Will] During your time.

  • - For one year. - [Will] Right.

  • - And he absolutely should have gotten

  • anything on the air.

  • - [Will] Right. - Yes.

  • - Did you like Larry David right away?

  • - Yes.

  • - [Will] Do you think we'd get along?

  • Me and Larry David?

  • - I don't think so.

  • - Okay.

  • Is Larry David really playing a fictional version

  • of himself on "Curb" or is he actually just like that?

  • - No, it's a fictional version,

  • I mean it's a heightened version of himself.

  • If that makes sense.

  • - No, it doesn't make sense.

  • - Well, do you know what heightened means?

  • - [Will] I don't.

  • - That's what I thought.

  • It means a slightly exaggerated version of himself.

  • Does that help you?

  • Do you know what exaggerate means?

  • - I don't.

  • That's why you don't want to be stuck in the woods with me.

  • - That's one reason.

  • I'm thinking also of that body hair,

  • and there's only so much a woman can take.

  • - Yes, both Barry and I know all about that.

  • - Of course, you played Elaine.

  • - Yes. - Benes.

  • - Benes. - [Will] On "Seinfeld."

  • - I did.

  • - [Will] Are you sick of talking about Elaine's dance moves?

  • - I kinda am, yeah. - [Will] Hmm.

  • - Barry?

  • - So, do you want to talk about Elaine's dance moves?

  • - [laughs] Sure!

  • [Will laughing]

  • Barry? - Lie.

  • - You've won 11 Emmy Awards!

  • - Yeah.

  • - Jeez Louise.

  • Have you ever pretended to be surprised

  • when you win and the camera's on you? [chuckles]

  • - No.

  • - [Will] Legitimately surprised every time?

  • - Of course, you don't know if you're gonna win.

  • - There wasn't one year where you're like,

  • "I kinda got this?" - Well I know,

  • there were certain years I thought

  • I had a better shot than others.

  • - [Will] Yeah. - But you never know.

  • - [Will] So it was always a-- - Yeah.

  • - [Will] That's nice to hear.

  • Do you know where all your Emmys are right now?

  • - I do!

  • - And where are they? - I'm not gonna tell you.

  • - [Will] Okay.

  • Have you ever misplaced one accidentally?

  • - No.

  • You know how big they are?

  • Oh, you don't?

  • Cause you don't have one. - No I don't.

  • We're not talking about me.

  • I'm, I'm interrogating you. - [Julia] Are you upset?

  • - I'm interrogating you. - Just answer this.

  • Barry, get a thing on him.

  • Are you upset that you don't have one of those trophies?

  • Yes or no. - No, I'm...

  • Barry, do I have to answer this question?

  • I don't.

  • Thank you.

  • Barry's the only one in this whole [bleep] room

  • who cares about me.

  • - You should be stranded on a desert island with him.

  • - Barry and I would work it out fine.

  • - [Julia] Yeah.

  • I don't know how tall you are Barry,

  • but I have a feeling you guys are gonna

  • get a lot of coconuts.

  • - You've had a few voiceover jobs throughout your career.

  • - I have, Will!

  • - Could you do am impression of my voice?

  • - Is this a good impression?

  • Hi, I'm Will Ferrell.

  • Is that good?

  • Yes or no?

  • - I'll ask Barry.

  • You think that's pretty good?

  • - That's not a yes or no question.

  • - Hi, I'm Will Ferrell, I'm the one asking you questions.

  • - I don't talk like that.

  • - Mmm.

  • - I sound a little bit like that

  • when I wake up in the morning,

  • that's like my morning voice. - [Julia] Right.

  • Uh-huh, right.

  • We all know how you say-- - [Will] Have you seen--

  • - Yeah.

  • - [Will] any of my impersonations?

  • - Yes. - Do you have a favorite?

  • Besides the one you just did.

  • - Yes. [laughs]

  • I like your George Bush-- - Okay.

  • and I also like your Alex Trebek.

  • - Ah, thank you.

  • - [Julia] You're welcome!

  • - That's nice.

  • - [Will] We had never worked together before this movie.

  • - That's right.

  • - [Will] Was I everything you hoped I would be?

  • - Yes.

  • - [Will] Would you consider me a friend at this point?

  • Yes or no question.

  • - Yeah.

  • - [Will] Barry?

  • - Absolutely true.

  • - Thank you.

  • - [Will] Is promoting this movie ruining our friendship?

  • - No, of course not.

  • - [Will] Barry?

  • - Another true response.

  • - [Will] So... - Thank you again.

  • Considering those two questions--

  • - [Julia] Yes.

  • - That they were both positive--

  • - Yeah.

  • - Can I come on the ski trip with you and your husband?

  • - [coughing] I'm getting sick now.

  • I was going to go on it, but now I feel that I have a virus.

  • - [Will] So the trip is canceled now?

  • - Yeah the trip is canceled. - Okay.

  • Well there's nothing I can do about that.

  • - Right.

  • - No, I could just pick a mountain randomly

  • and hope you guys are there.

  • - Absolutely, but I don't see that happening

  • 'cause now I can feel I have a really high fever.

  • - [Will] Okay. - Yep.

  • - Did you lie at any point during this lie detector test

  • and we didn't catch you?

  • - No.

  • - Also very true.

  • - Hmm!

  • Hmm.

  • - Huh.

  • - It's possible the machine's broken.

  • It's possible, I'm just going to put it out there.

  • - They used to be good like 10 years ago.

  • - 10 years ago they were good,

  • and now it's, they, anyway.

  • - The Truthaholic--

  • - Are we done? - 5000.

  • No we can keep going, right?

  • [laughing]

  • [crash]

- [Barry] Will.
