I don't know.
It's...
It's so hot, Sharon Stone sent her husband into the polar
barcade. Is that...
Just go in there and...
Man, I was...I was dying earlier today, so I opened a can of Pringles just to get that little breeze.
That...
It's so hot, former President Clinton undid his fly just for the ventilation.
Just for the ventilation.
And...
And then he got into bed with Hillary just for the chill.
You know, it's times like this that I'm proud that Hillary Clinton is our junior senator from the great state of New York.
She is trying to put together, now follow me on this, she is trying to put together a bill now that will outlaw cockfighting.
That's right.
Finally, a politician listening to the voters.
But man, I'm telling you, it's hot here in New York City today. The hookers down in Times Square, God bless them.
It's so hot that today for an extra $50, they'll blow on you.
That's how hot it is.
And the next in the hot luggage, Paul Schaeffer, everybody.
Yeah.
And the Paul Schaeffer, Felicia Collins, CBS Symphony Orchestra.
Nice to have you folks here, everybody.
On the program, Sean Hayes, one of the stars of the Will & Grace TV show.
Sean Hayes is on the program.
Musical legend, Brian Wilson.
And you know that.
Brian Wilson.
Who else with Brian Wilson?
He's an all-star thing. He's got Darius Rucker from the Hootie and the Bull.
And going to your favorite guys, Matthew Sweet.
All teaming up on a number that they do in that nutty TNT tribute special that Brian's got coming up soon.
Great. Looking forward to that.
And something very exciting outside, I'll tell you about it in a second, but I don't want to ruin your fun.
I'll just tell you this right now because I know you can see right through me when you're watching at home there on the TV.
The TV camera doesn't lie.
It's more of an X-ray and you can look right into my soul through that TV.
So I'll just be honest with you, I'm in a horrible, foul, dirty, ugly, black mood tonight.
And I know.
And I know you're saying at home, well, that sounds like a lot of fun.
Took me two hours to get to work today.
Two damn hours to get to work today.
Now, I have a feeling some of you people were the problem.
I have a feeling.
I've lived here for 20 years. I don't understand it.
I didn't understand it the first time it happened.
If I lived to be a thousand, I won't understand it when it happens in the future.
It happens again today.
The worst day of the year.
It's 180 degrees.
The humidity measuring equipment is busted.
That's how much humidity we have.
It got soggy and rusted from the humidity and they can't tell you.
It's the heat chill.
Is there a heat chill index?
I'm sure there is now.
That's right.
That index is a million.
Heat chill index.
Heat chill one million.
Heat chill index one million.
Every dumb person in the world with a car.
Today would be a good day to drive into New York City and walk around on the asphalt.
What?
Don't come into town.
They're here getting an early start looking at the Christmas tree that takes place in October,
whenever the hell they put that thing up.
Two hours.
Two and like six lanes of traffic.
And then it would, you know, you'd speed up to like 11 miles an hour and you'd think,
alright, here we go.
I'm going to make my move.
I'm drafting now.
And then it would slow down again for another 45 minutes and you'd sit there.
And then you'd think, well, at the end I'm going to see, God forbid, the worst traffic accident in my life.
No, you don't see anything.
Everything's fine.
What was the holdup? What was it?
I think it's rubberneckers. I think that's what it is.
But what are they looking at?
Well, me, I guess.
Look, there's a TV boy back there.
Where you going, Slim?
Me driving.
Alright.
I'm telling you, we've got something great for you folks.
This is why they invented TV.
We're here, we're doing something tonight called the Incredible Dog Challenge.
Oh, yeah.
It's the Incredible Dog Challenge.
We have, I think tonight we only have three dogs, but when you see these animals...
Remember what I told you about my mood, ladies and gentlemen?
We have three very talented dogs and this course out there on 53rd Street...
You know, this is probably the problem. We've had 53rd Street shut down all day.
You can't move because of 53rd Street. That's why I couldn't get to work.
That's it. It reaches all the way up here.
You started it.
Yeah, backs it all the way up to Albany, I know.
Now listen.
First, let's meet the dogs. Who are we going to say hello to first?
This is Fury. Is Fury out there on 53rd Street? That's Fury.
Fury is an Afghan hound.
He's six years old, 65 pounds.
He's from Jackson, New Jersey.
Oh, this is a great story. Fury was rescued from the pound right there.
He has been competing in agility contests for about five years.
So that's Fury. That's contestant number one.
Beautiful looking animal, isn't he, Paul?
He is gorgeous.
Yeah, okay.
And we're showing you the dogs now. We want you to bet on them.
Oh, really?
Call your bookie or get over to OTB or call your uncle or whoever handles your wagering.
There is betting.
So that's Fury. And Woody, would you bet on Fury, Paul?
So far he's my favorite. Yeah, although I've only bet on him.
Next we have Skyler. Take a look at Skyler.
Skyler.
Look at that doggy. Look at that doggy.
Doggy, doggy.
Skyler is an Australian shepherd. He also is six years old, 40 pounds.
So the other dogs are 15 pounds, 25 pounds heavier. Is that right?
Skyler lives in Miami, Florida, competes regularly in agility and frisbee contests, just like my ex-wife, and toured with...
What?
I don't know what that... Did I say that? Good joke.
Skyler toured with Ringling Brothers Circus in 1996 and 1997. Now, is that fair to have a circus dog in this competition?
I don't know.
It sounds like a ringer to me.
I think all is fair.
I would have to bet I haven't seen him run or nothing, but I'm going to put all my money on Skyler.
Look at that dog.
All right.
Look at that doggy. Okay.
And the third dog is Pip.
There's Pip.
Hello, Pip. Pip.
Pip is a corgi. He's a corgi. They're made by Volvo.
He's four years old, 26 pounds, lives in Manhattan, has been competing in agility contests for three years, and he trains in the hallway of his apartment.
Wow.
I bet the neighbors love that.
Okay, so those are the three dogs, and in a minute we're going to show you the course, and it's fantastic, and we're going to run them off in heats.
We'll have the first dog and then the second dog, and at the end with the best time, that's the winner.
Fantastic.
Okay.
Keep forward.
All right. All right. Now, turn on the camera again. Let's go into Rupert G.'s Hello Deli, ladies and gentlemen. There's everybody.
Hi, Rupert.
How you doing?
Hi, Dave. How are you?
Rupert, we have the Incredible Dog Challenge tonight, and we had 53rd Street shut down all day. Did that hurt your business at all?
A little bit.
Yeah.
Oh, sorry. Sorry about that, Rupert.
That's okay.
It seems like you're taking it pretty good, though.
Rupert, this is the last couple of weeks we've been showing these old things where you would dress up in a little spy outfit. You'd have the camera, you'd have the earpiece, and you'd have the radio pack, and then I would talk to you with the walkie talkie. You got any of that gear in there?
Any what?
What am I, am I still in traffic?
I say, do you have any of that equipment with you that we used to put on?
Oh, yes, I do.
Gear, yeah. Gear.
Gear, yeah. Okay. That had a camera in it. You can see with that camera in there. And then the hat was, I don't know what the hat was, but we had an earpiece, and then I would sit in the van and tell you what to do.
That's right.
And we had to stop doing that because of when the guy pulled the knife on us.
That's right.
And this one, this one, we really, and you're looking back on this now, I don't know why we ever did it because it's just nasty. It's just horribly nasty. We went into, was this where we went into the outdoor cafe, Rupert?
Yes, we were.
And we bothered, you were a waiter, right?
Right.
And I'm telling you what to do, and you're bothering customers.
That's right.
And then they started to bother you.
Yep.
And I believe this took place December 15th, originally December 15th, 1995, and then plus Rupert, a little later, you're going to participate in the award ceremony for the Incredible Dog Challenge.
That's right.
So this should make up for all that lost business you suffered today.
Okay.
Okay, here you go. Fun with Rupert from December 15th, 1995. Take a look.
Hi, ladies.
Ladies.
My name's Jeffrey.
My name is Jeffrey.
Or you can call me Jopri.
But, you, you can call me Jopri.
Jop tuning.
What do you want.
What would you want.
I would like the tomato and mozzarella texture sandwich please.
I'll tell you what, I'm gonna have to go across the street and get it there.
I'll tell you. I'm gonna have to go across the street to get it there.
Because they know how to make a sandwich.
We don't know what the hell we're doing here.
We're just playing grab-ass in the kitchen today.
We're just playing grab-ass in the kitchen.
A grab-ass.
Okay, girls. Everybody thirsty?
Here's the vodka.
Everybody thirsty? Here's the vodka.
You know, oh, uh.
Ah.
Wow, I feel better already.
I feel better already.
What can I do for you, pal?
What do you want? What do you want today?
What do you want today? What looks good?
What looks good?
You buy a magazine, I'll take off my pants.
How much is that? What are you buying?
Really, Neal?
That's 20 bucks.
Would you like some fresh ground pepper?
Let me put a little fresh ground pepper on that bread.
Let me put a little fresh ground pepper on the bread.
No, would you stop it? I'm serious.
What's the problem?
It's a condiment.
This is a condiment.
You're aggravating the hell out of me.
I don't want pepper on my bread, OK?
I said no.
Where would you like the pepper?
I don't want any white pepper.
All right, how about your friend?
How about your friend?
I want you to get out of my face.
I want another waiter.
Wait a minute.
Wait, wait, wait, wait.
Who are you? Martha Stewart?
What do you want?
News.
News?
No to notice it.
That's 20 bucks.
It went up.
20 bucks, sorry.
Why you gotta play games?
Sorry.
What do you weigh?
What do I weigh?
140.
Come back when you're 150.
All right?
All right.
I'm not selling anything to you.
I'm not selling to anyone underweight.
Carry it over there by the rim.
By the rim.
By the rim?
Yeah, just with your thumb down in it.
Yeah.
Just get it down in there.
Just get it all the way in.
Is it in the water?
Yeah.
Okay.
There you go.
Thank you.
I don't want to take that back.
Just take that back.
What's the problem now?
Put your finger in my glass.
Just get out of here, okay?
Well, who are you?
The Queen of England?
Who are you?
The Queen of England?
I guess I am, but I don't want your finger in my glass, okay?
Get out of my face.
It was my thumb.
Your thumb, your finger, whatever.
I don't want it.
Rupert?
Mm-hmm?
Can you see if they got like rubber gloves you can carry it out with?
Yeah.
Put your thumb down in it.
Yeah.
There you go.
Rupert, good grief.
All right, now.
We're ready now for the first heat of the Incredible Dog Challenge.
Now, Paul, you keep track of the times, okay?
Okay.
All right.
Okay, this will be, who's going to be first?
This is Fury, the Afghan hound.
Now, listen to this course.
It's hurdle, hurdle, then through an inner tube, hurdle, over the teeter totter, through
a tunnel, through the weave poles, kind of a slalom deal there, then another hurdle,
then over the A-frame bridge, through the pop-up tunnel.
There's your course.
Daunting, ain't it?
All right.
Am I the only one timing, or is there going to be a clock on this, or what?
No, they're going to run the clock.
Just keep track of who has the faster time.
The owner is Karen Shapiro.
Karen, are you out there?
Can you hear me?
Yes.
Hi.
Do you run the course with your dog?
Yes, I do.
Now, will the heat be a factor?
Oh, yeah, definitely.
88 degrees.
She's been hanging out here frying for a while.
Relative humidity, 46%.
Oh, I've got to bring her back.
Wait.
Wind from the north at five miles per... Wait a minute.
What's happened here?
She broke her start.
Oh, okay.
I thought I was just running down the wall.
Stay.
The heat's getting to her.
Like NBC's Olympic coverage, isn't it?
All right.
Wait a minute.
Hold it.
I'm just... Karen, don't start yet.
Tell I've started.
Okay?
Because I think that's important for people watching at home.
Karen, can you hear me?
Yes.
Okay.
Yes, I can hear you.
You want me to go?
Wait.
No, no, no, no.
No, not yet, not yet.
I'll say go.
Come on.
All right?
Okay.
Karen?
Okay.
Sit.
Stay.
Okay.
Now.
Stay.
Barometric pressure is falling.
Good day, Fury.
This is building up.
I'm going to go to the bathroom.
I'm going to the bathroom.
Good day, Fury.
Visibility unlimited.
She's not going to have it.
Okay, now this is Fury.
Fury is from... Fury is from New Jersey.
Yes.
All right, Karen, you ready?
I'm ready.
Go.
Okay, over.
Come on.
Good.
Over.
Tire.
Here, here, here.
Over.
Fury, here, here, here.
Come on, go.
Teeter, go.
There's the teeter-totter.
Good job.
Come on, go.
Tuttle, tuttle, tuttle.
There's the thing.
Look at that.
Yeah.
Thank you very much, Karen.
You're welcome.
Good job.
That's Fury.
All right, did you get that, Paul?
21.94.
Karen, is that a good time for Fury?
Yeah, very good.
Have you ever run the course yourself?
No.
You want to give it a try a little later?
No.
All right, thank you very much for bringing your dog in.
He's a beautiful, beautiful animal.
Thank you.
Thank you very much.
21.94, that's the first time.
We've got to do a commercial.
We'll be right back.
Sean Hayes and Brian Wilson are with us tonight, ladies and gentlemen.

eggs stick under relative temperatures.

With what?
Athlac!
Plus they pay you cash. Great, huh?
Who does?
Athlac!
Athlac. Without it, no insurance is complete.
After this, no more jobs. This is the last one I'm doing.
Then quit. Quit now.
On July 13th...
A little bit complicated, but this is a very doable job.
The only problem with a perfect crime...
We're not gonna get another chance like this. We gotta go now.
...is knowing who to trust.
Hand it over right now!
What are you doing?
Robert De Niro. Edward Norton.
Why did you start picking you up better than me?
The score. Rated R. July 13th everywhere.
You ready for a cold one?
Yeah.
It's cold. It's not core's light.
Core's light. Tasty.
Nice. Mucklucks.
America. Land of the free. Home of the brave.

who were considered brave because they were willing to kill others and steal this land.

Right now, Rupert, you there buddy?
Hi Dave.
We're going to show another one of these things, okay?
Okay, great.
I think you can take the stuff off now.
Oh, okay.
Maybe that's why business has been off today.
Does it bring back memories?
Take a look at this stuff.
Oh, it does.
It was scary, wasn't it?
You almost got your ass kicked in this one, I think.
Okay, here we go.
This was originally shown here on the Late Show on December 15th, 1995.
Fun with Rupert.

4th entitled Cats and Dogs. Here's Sean Hayes, everybody. Welcome to the show. Nice to have
you with us.
Okay. You can go with those.
Thank you very much. How are you doing?
I'm doing well. I'm just going to be honest with you though. I know this airs late at
night, but it is 5 o'clock right now and it is my nap time. So if I do doze off, don't
take it personally. It's just my natural body functions.
It's your internal clock.
Exactly.
You need a little rest.
All right. Sure. It's your circadian rhythms. Is that what it is? Or you're asleep now?
I'm sorry. I just dozed off. I just dozed off. But I am back.
Good. Welcome back.
Okay. Thank you.
Well, I think it went pretty well. I hope you can stop by again.
Okay. Take care.
My whole time thing has been off since I've been here. I have this little story if I could
share with you.
Oh, I'd love a story.
Great. Then we both win.
Here we go.
I had to get up for the Regis show on Tuesday.
Regis and Kelly Lee?
Yes. She called herself Bernadette Peters that day. I don't know what that means. So I set
my alarm clock for 715 and then I called for a wake-up call for 715, double whammy, going
to get up for sure. And then I went to sleep and the phone rang and rang and rang and rang
and rang and then I finally woke up and it stopped ringing and I assumed that was my
wake-up call.
Sure. Time to go.
You know what I'm saying?
Yeah, I know.
So I woke up and I opened up the drape and it was pitch black. Kind of strange.
Right.
So I was like, maybe that's a New York thing. Maybe, you know, maybe-
East Coast, maybe the sun doesn't sometimes come up.
It came up today, Dave. It came up today. So, really hot out.
Oh yeah.
So I looked at my watch and it said 730 and the clock was stuck on the alarm at 715. So
I was like, I'm going to turn the shower on and I'm going to get ready. It's weird. I'm
going to do it though. And I'm like, I should call downstairs at the front desk.
Double check.
What time is it? They said 1.30 in the morning. I started getting ready for the reader's show
at 1.30 in the morning.
Well, that's a tough show. You need all the preparation you can get. I think you were
smart, really.
Not a problem. So I just want to know, because I get the clock thing, but my watch said 730,
where did seven hours go? Abduction? I don't know. I mean-
You would know better than me. I can't help you.
So I want my seven hours back.
All right.
Before I leave New York.
Now, let's talk about last night was the play. You're in a play for two nights. Was that it?
Yes.
What is the play?
It's a little like workshop play. It's no big deal. It's called Platonically Incorrect
with my friends Darlene Hunt, who's here and Steve Shenbaum. Darlene wrote it. And we're
just workshopping it to see what it's like. It's been run in LA, but here opening night
was last night and closing night is tonight, because it only runs two nights. So I got
plowed last night for opening night and then I get plowed tonight because it closes.
You mean drunk?
Drunk, maybe drink, yeah, a little bit. You're welcome to come by.
After the show you get drunk.
Isn't that what you do?
I get drunk during the show.
You need to hide it better.
Yeah, thank you. So, do you see you wrote this or you didn't write this?
No, my friend Darlene wrote it.
Your friend wrote it, yeah. And how did it go last night?
It went really, really well. Thank you for asking. How did your show go last night?
Oh, it was fantastic.
Great.
We rushed it to the Museum of Broadcasting.
Did you start out in theater? Is that how you began?
Yeah, I did some theater in Chicago, not a whole lot, and then I did a bunch of commercials.
We don't get a lot of TV and movies in Chicago.
You don't get a lot of TV and movie work.
Work, yeah. Actually, I did some research and there are no television sets.
Is that right?
Yeah.
It hasn't gotten to Chicago yet.
There's no theater, nothing. They're just getting gone with the wind.
Do you have kind of the resume of strange and unusual things that you did in theater, odd jobs or anything?
Yeah, yeah, yeah. Very good. Yes, one of these strange things I did was, this is so stupid,
but this woman organizes big parties for huge celebrities and we had to go to this house.
It was like Sir Somebody and this guy, she found out, Sir Mix-a-lot maybe, I don't know.
And I think this woman, it was crazy, because this guy liked the Charleston dance,
so I got hired for like a hundred bucks so I could pay my rent to dance the Charleston with this girl for like 30 seconds.
Do you dance? Is that part of what you do?
I can't do that.
You can't dance?
No. I can't dance.
Did you take lessons to learn how to do that? I mean, what is the Charleston dance?
I guess you just put your knees and do this. You want to try it?
No, I sure don't.
You know what, I'll stand in front of you if you want to do it, nobody will have to see, Dave.
Really? No? Okay. Let's not.
Could be time for another dog heat.
Let's go to the dogs.
Alright, so continue.
I think I was, so I did it, I did it, I did my little Charleston, I got a hundred, for like 30 seconds I got my hundred bucks and I was out of there.
Wow.
But like Jack Nicholson was there and like Don Rickles and Mike Eisner and all these crazy people.
And did they respond positively to this?
I didn't stick around to find out.
Okay.
How are things on the Will and Grace Show? Pretty good, huh?
I love the little article that you put on before each show you say the Will and Grace Show or like, you know, like the Friends or the ER.
But the name of the show is just Will and Grace.
Right.
But it is the Will and Grace Show.
Okay, that's fine.
Well no, I mean, I don't want to make trouble.
I think it's great, it's a very Midwest thing of you.
It's very fun, it's a blast, you know, we start working next month and I'm really looking forward to it. There's going to be a lot more storylines with me and I have a son because I'm sure you're a big fan of the show.
You watch it.
Well I TiVo it.

It's like we have talking and Cats and Dogs.
It's very literal.
