During the latest episode of “The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon,” there was no shortage of entertainment and laughter. As Fallon kicked off the show by celebrating its 2,000th episode, he thanked the viewers for their continued support. Fallon’s witty remarks and charismatic personality kept the audience engaged throughout the entire show.
In a hilarious segment, Fallon talked about some recent news, including President Biden‘s statement that he would only consider dropping out of the race if a doctor told him he had a medical condition. To everyone’s surprise, the news broke that President Biden had tested positive for COVID-19. Fallon, as always, injected his unique brand of humor into the situation, joking that it was the first positive news Biden had in months.
Fallon continued to poke fun at the situation, mentioning Biden’s symptoms and cheekily suggesting that he got COVID-19 because Democrats had been distancing themselves from him since the debate. However, he reassured the audience that Biden was expected to make a full recovery, with his doctors predicting he would be back to 60% in no time.
The talk show host couldn’t resist a bit of speculation about who might have given Biden the virus, considering the number of people he meets each day. Fallon humorously pondered various scenarios, including someone going into Baskin-Robbins and passing on the virus through an ice-cream cone. Ultimately, Fallon concluded that it would remain a mystery, leaving everyone guessing.
Moving on to the topic of the election, Fallon highlighted the increasing pressure on Biden to drop out of the race, with some top Democrats believing it could happen in the next few days. Nevertheless, Fallon highlighted that Senator Bernie Sanders and a few other lawmakers were still in Biden’s corner, offering their support and belief that he could win big against Trump.
After the political talk, Fallon couldn’t help but mention the conclusion of the Republican National Convention, where Trump formally accepted the Republican nomination. Fallon humorously described the event, mentioning Trump saying “I do” and jokingly referring to the scene as “You may now kiss the flag.” He also added a touch of humor by mentioning Hulk Hogan’s surprising speech at the convention, resulting in a scarcity of spray tan in the building.
Switching gears, Fallon shared some quirky and interesting news stories, such as the recall of nearly 7,000 pounds of hot dogs due to lack of inspection, the sale of a dinosaur fossil for a record $45 million, and a gamer breaking a world record by playing video games for 75 hours straight.
