This man got me through the Trump administration. Made me laugh rather than cry.
I know wasn't he a godsend ❤
Same!!
O.M.Goodness YES! 😃
YES!!!! He is amazing!!!
Absolutely agree!
When Carol Burnett was asked how she is spending her time during the pandemic she replied "Watching Randy Rainbow", so I found him. Randy drinks my favorite vodka too. Randy is brilliant and his technical skills make his videos even more amazing. When I need a good laugh, I put on my pink Randy Rainbow eyeglasses and watch a bit. Talent, beauty, brains - he's got it all.
And that’s definitely a huge compliment!
Hi Susan hope everything is going well for you today?
@@stevenwilson238 - Ew! It's pathetic when random men hit on women in the YT comment section.
Yes, Mr. Rainbow is a freaking genius.
❤️
If you haven't seen some of his stuff: this guy is REALLY good! He's got the voice of an angel, the face of a cartoon character and the writing chops of a seasoned comedy veteran.
Ikr?
Feel free to hit me up on your leisure time.
amen to everything you said. So thankful for him.
He's like if Weird Al were cute.
Well said!
Really? I think he's cute. Handsome, really...
It’s the razor sharp intellect behind his work that keeps me watching him.
Doesn't hurt that he's got a great voice and the costuming is on the mark. He'd be funny even if he only had average performing skills, but everything he does is honed and polished.
Great to see Randy getting the attention he deserves on National American TV.
He handled it well.
I agree
He is AMAZING!
Amen! ‘Bout time! Very talented guy.
I just hope he is aware enough of the pitfalls that come with this big a success. I hope he has some good council
Randy Rainbow is absolutely the most talented not on Broadway, Broadway star. He’s funny, witty, and works well with others. Great you had him on and how much he’s impressed by you to put you in his book!
And an incredible voice
Works well with others. 😆 wink
❤❤❤
Hey woke tards! Twitter is free again!
I agree with you wholeheartedly! ❤️
This man is a national treasure!! Love him and thank him for bringing so much lite in these dark time.
This man is truly a national treasure....
10000000000 % to infinity and beyond. He's a joy.
I absolutely adore Randy's parodies. The lyrics are spot-on, well-written, and absolutely hilarious and he has an AMAZING voice.
Randy Rainbow Rocks! So awesome that he's getting the recognition he deserves. Two thumbs up to Jimmy for putting him on.
Agreed. RR is definitely a national treasure.
This dude hilarious! I'm sure he infuriates the far right conservatives, which makes him even funnier! 😂
Absolutely! Both National Treasures! 😍
He was just on Joy Reid’s show on MSNBC two nights ago. I’m in awe of his talent and intelligence.
Kind of great how long he’s been doing this
Randy is original. Incredibly endowed with talent. Beautiful human being.
You had me at endowed
@@Peapodzilla Lol! 😂
Agreed!
@@Peapodzilla - same here.
I would not have survived the last few years without Randy Rainbow. Love him!
Randy IS a national treasure. His performances were always worth waiting for. So thrilled he is making a name with or without his pants on.
Randy's made the past 5 years more tolerable with his sharp wit and incredible talent!
Thank you, sir, for the laughs when we need them the most!
Same here
I've not thought about that but you nailed it Tammy. He has made these years more bearable.
I 100% agree.
Me too
Amen
Randy Rainbow 2024.
He is young, honest, caring and not a Gangster out for himself.
That would be incredibly awesome! 💗
Definitely refreshing. !!
His ability to put to music what we’re all thinking is amazing!
I love this guy! He’s intelligent, adorable, has a wonderful voice, and is a great comedian! Randy, you are unique! :-)
Randy had me on the floor crying with laughter on many occasions during Voldermoron's presidency. He deserves this success and recognition.
I’m using you epithet for the Orange Toddler.
@@TheSuzberry Other favorites include Mar a Lardo and Orange Caligula.
@@plaidpanda Cheeto Mussolini
VOLDORMORON..LOL!!!
"Voldermoron" - LOLOLOL - surprised that he hasn't sued Randy!
I had the biggest grin plastered across my face through this entire interview. Jimmy is such a gracious host and Randy Rainbow is a national treasure! Love him!
You may keep bringing that lovely man, Mr. Randy Rainbow, back anytime! He got me through some dark times and I love him! His talent and imagination are epic!
Randy Rainbow made me laugh, when I thought all hope was gone. Humor is the best medicine.
Thanks Doc!
I Love this Guy.. He Can Make the Worst of Time's.. Humorous... Keep Us Laughing My Friend!!!
@@naomiarram5187 There's nothing wrong with the pursuit of Proper English when American
spell-check is dumbing it down more than it already is.
Randy got me through the pandemic!!!
@@naomiarram5187Ok dan post ik voortaan alles in mijn eigen taal. En Randy rainbow en Jimmy Kimmel zijn geweldig leuk samen.
@@johnwattdotca so true! I hate arguing with my spell check...especially when it makes me think I've made I word up and I have to look it up. I think the worst part is that it doesn't care when I'm right!🙄
I was going to correct the "time's" but someone else already did, so I'll address your excessive use of capital letters. You only capitalize the first word of a sentence and proper nouns.
Finally… I was hoping Randy would go on all the big shows. His musical take downs are legend 💋👍🏻
He is brilliant im surprised he doesn't have a show of his own.
Yeah, I was wondering why he wasn't invited to all the shows! He could sing a duet with Jimmy Fallon!
Next up, hosting SNL!!
@@laurencekelly5081 He’s toured the past few years…I saw him in 2019 and 2021 at the Beacon Theatre in NYC. Fantastic show!
This guy is so talented I hope he gets his own show.
Love you Randy .
I actually want him to continue with his current venture.
I can't tell you how much I love this man's work....all of it.
Thank you for having him on.
Love Randy Rainbow and Jimmy Kimmel. A perfect combo of talents. Hope Marjorie Trailer Queen was watching.
Marjorie Trailer Queen 🤣🤣 Was that a Kimmelism, or your idea? Either way, it's perfect 👏
@Judi Morningstar Hilarious!🤣🤣🤣🤣 Marjorie Trailer Queen purrrrrfect! 🤣🤣🤣 KlanMom , indeed! 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
🎶She’s a Karen!🎶
Omg yes. Perfect.
Yay! Finally! So happy to see Randy Rainbow on a Late Night Show!
Hope he does more! I'd love to see him singing show tunes with Colbert!
He is absolutely hilarious, saw a special on CBS Sunday Morning about him and was amazed! Looked him up on UA-cam and became an immediate Randy Rainbow fan. The guy is brilliant and I hope he gets his Broadway show. Thanks Jimmy for having him on! You made his day, his dream and brought light on a guy who fought against all odds picking on people who’s life’s mission is to make everyone else’s terrible. Rock On Randy! 🤘💪😎
I laughed through my tears. Randy, you deserve the "Congressional Medal of Honor, " for saving the sanity of millions.
Randy, Jimmy, Seth, and Colbert got me through the last administration. Eternal thanks for preserving our sanity. 🙏🏻❤️💐
excellent combo! 😁
All of them exposed some of the rot to the general public. Don’t forget Rachel Maddow who provided a public service every night, Monday through Friday. What MSNBC did during those four years influenced millions. Thank God!
Me too! The four of them!
Try a little Trevor Noah for extra flavor? 😉
Yes, and Trevor, for me.
Followed Randy for years, his lyrics wordplay is brilliant, he's hilarious. Jimmy should give him a segment on his show.
Yes please!
where is he shown? I want to watch.
@@KindCountsDeb3773 he has a utube channel. Totally brilliant.
@@KindCountsDeb3773 When you tune into Randy Rainbow's UA-cam channel, be sure to also watch the videos made BEFORE he started making political satire - they are great, too! He's a really talented man.
Randy is priceless. ❤️
This talented man has made me laugh at the horror of Rump and his minions even when I was feeling hopeless. What a amazing ultra talented person. Love you Randy!
YASSS! Girl not sure if I could have endured the Trumpster years😮 Randy instilled hope, faith, humor and I started singing along, for 3 mins. Orange Dude left my mind as I would immerse myself in his every move, singing and magnificent humor! We need you to be at President Biden’s 🎉 re-election celebration!
Come on Joe, Randy and Taylor singing at your 2 Presidential inauguration!
I love seeing him get this well deserved attention. I've loved his videos for years. His talent and humor were especially helpful the last few years.
Went to his channel for the comedy, stayed for the incredible voice. The man can sing.
Yes, he's wonderful.
Absolutely! I'm disappointed Broadway hasn't snapped him up already! And Jimmy should have given him a musical number, that would have been awesome!
Hi Sarah, hope everything is going well for you today?
@@stevenwilson238 - Blech! It's pathetic when randoms hit on women in the comment section.
@@wholeshebang1 how do you mean?
Absolutely adore Randy Rainbow 💖
I love Randy!!! I have watched all his videos. He got me thru The Dark Years and Covid. He's a musical comedy genius that we need more of. Hope you have him back.
No where else will we find this combination of wit, humor, musical genius, and delicious self-acceptance. Feels like this audience isn't quite sure what to do with him! It's really this simple: Randy Rainbow is pure treasure. He's chocolate cake that's good for you.
I get this alot🥺
Randy Rainbow is a vital resource.
Hey Michelle, Hope everything is going well for you today?
@@stevenwilson238 - There you (a bot?) are again, hitting on women. How pathetic. Reported.
@@nathanisaksson7750 - @Steve Wilson is either a desperate man, hitting on women in YT comment section, or a bot, phishing. Reported.
@@wholeshebang1 I think it’s a little bot game they’re playing with each other, so I’m Reporting them both!
I’m beginning to spot these trolls by their oh-so-obviously fake names. Just what a Russian troll would make up as typically American/Brit names…
OK. It’s just my little theory…..😈
Randy is a national treasure!
Randy Rainbow got us all through the past few years reminding us to laugh in the midst of craziness, a real joy in the midst of insanity. Deepest thanks and best wishes always Randy!
Finally, he deserves to be with all the great comedians!
Randy Rainbow is the core of humanity
Soren Ingram - What lovely words - there seems to be a world shortage at the moment.
I've been laughing at Randy Rainbow's perfect parodies for several years, but never thought that could be his real last name! Gotta give his parents Gerry and Gwen props for naming him because with a name like Randy Rainbow, he was destined to become a star!! 🌈⭐
His book is really interesting - a chance to meet Randy in person, but on paper!
When I need a laugh, I watch Randy. He is truly a brilliant musical artist.
Randy Rainbow is so funny & very talented. I hope all his dreams come true! He's a Star! 💕🐞🌈🌟
Finally! Some recognition from the entertainment industry. Now, give him his own show.
I think Randy is the most singularly talented person in the entertainment world today. I don't want him to have his own show, though. He puts videos out when the muse strikes him, when something or someone in the news inspires him. If he had a regular show his output could wind up forced, the humor diluted simply due to the volume of pieces he would have to provide every week. Maybe he could do it, but I don't want anything to endanger the splendid magic that he provides. I wish he was on all the talk shows, though, so more people would be exposed to the wonder that is Randy. If he got an Emmy nom, a lot of industry people had to be aware, and voted for him to be on the short list.
I love that you’re so protective of him, Patricia. You are so right. We’ve seen too many big stars crash and burn with too much exposure and pressure.
This must NOT happen with RR.
Hold my Prosecco 🥰🥰🥰
And a star 🌟 in Hollywood...tremendous love and talent and that's what Hollywood is all about!!!
I loved Randy for his videos these past six years, then read his book and loved him so much more! It's so lovely to see a man who DESERVES to live the best life he ever imagined... live the best life he ever dreamed and thought was too fabulous to come true. OVATIONS FOR EVER!
Hi Judith, hope everything is going well for you today?
Randy Rainbow is hilarious and incredible talented! Every time one of his new songs is posted, you know it’s always going to be a great day 😀
I love Randy rainbow thank you so much for having him on the show you’re both wonderful
Love this guy, his songs are hilarious.
Hi Jane hope everything is going well for you today?
Waiting for when this guy finally pulls his songs into a Broadway show... Get to it, Randy!
He's gone on tour with his songs. I've been to one of his concerts.
He should do a full show on dumpty’s missteps and lies. There is plenty of material, isn’t there? He could combine his stuff with actual video clips. I would fly to New York just to see it.
I love Randy Rainbow! Please have him on again for longer and let him sing!!
I fell asleep in front of the TV the night this was on, and right after I woke up, Randy came on! (I hadn't checked the schedule.) I live for Randy's parodies and Jimmy's political monologues! Both of them help me though all of the crap that's going on in this country.
So weird to see him on here.. he got me through the last 'presidency' everyone should watch all his videos..his songs repeat in my head daily
True!
When someone does something ridiculous, in my mind I'm thinking, "WTF?!" Randy, right on cue, immediately pops in my head singing, "WTF? WTF, you guys?". Always gives me a silent giggle.
I knew you'd get here. Randy...with much more to come. Congrats. 💕
Hey Charming, hope everything is going well for you today?
@@stevenwilson238 - You're so pathetic and desperate, hitting on women in the comment section. You screwed up and got name wrong on this one. Must be a bot. Reported.
Awesome to see Randy getting the media spots he so deserves. Kept us laughing through Mango Mussolini and Covid, and continues to do so. Smart, Witty and Uber-talented. Mr. Sondheim knew what he was talking about. You Rock, Gurl…and so do your pink glasses.
I’m so happy that Randy is getting the national recognition he deserves!
I was so happy to see that Randy was gonna be on Kimmel ! Two of the people who got me through those terrible T years. His appearance was a smash hit ! Thanks to both men.
I don't buy many books these days - but I'll buy Randy's book. Small token for what he did for me during the Pandemic lockdown months. National Treasure - yes !
I downloaded it on Audible and can’t wait to hear him read it himself!
@@divadayton1 I just listened to it. It's fabulous! Get kleenex for the chapter about Mushi.
@@divadayton1 Still waiting for it to drop here 🇬🇧🇬🇧…
Love him, please have him back just to chat. He's the perfect guest. Refreshing energy so needed right now.
For real
Thank God for Randy Rainbow!! He got me through the pandemic and all of the accompanying chaos!
I love Randy Rainbow, he makes me laugh when I want to scream! Thank you Randy! Please keep doing what you do.
Randy is so humble and grateful and it’s beautiful to see. I love him for his hilarious bits and the pearl-clutching panic he induces in Republicans. You go girl.
Randy is super talented! Been enjoying his videos for years. “Seasons of Trump” brought true happiness when many of us really needed it.
Go Randy!!! 🙌🏼🙌🏼
My favorite one, too!!
Make that “Treasons of Trump”!! 🤣
Finally! Randy gets his due on a major evening show. Kudos to Kimmel for leading the pack.
That was fun. Not surprised to hear Jimmy was encouraging people new on the scene. Rainbow is a unique talent.
Randy's efforts are the epitome of sarcastic comedy genius set to familiar entertaining music. His creative talent seems to have no limit ...
Randy: jawline that could cut glass. Such a brilliant talent.
Omg, could Randy be any more perfect? I love him soooo much!!! What a hilarious story!!!! 😂😂😂😂😂
Randy Rainbow is hilarious and SO entertaining! His parodies are genius. Happy he's getting recognized like this!
Randy deserves all the success in the world ❤
Such a gorgeous human experience interview. Love Randy’s voice, sense of fun, humour and charm.
Randy Rainbow is truly a national treasure. He's so funny and so human. I am delighted he's on your show. :-)
I love that Jimmy is so gracious and so generous.
Randy's videos are funny and well thought out. I wish him only the best in the future.
I LOVE Mr. Rainbow! Such amazing intellect, style, and voice. A national treasure to be sure.😊
Ever since I was a kid, before I’d heard of Weird Al, I loved writing parody songs or songs with a popular tune but to my own words. I’ll never say these songs were very clever, yet I’ve always admired the people who can do it so well!!!
Randy Rainbow is such a talent!!! He truly should be on Broadway!!! He can sing, act and be pretty, all at once!!
TRIPLE THREAT!!!
It’s great to see him being properly recognized!!!
Any time I’m having an off day I load up Randy and sing along! Works every time!
I think I like him even more just being himself than I do his characters.
He is just a lovely human being! ❤️
Gotta say, I am sooo happy for RR and how far he's come! My god he's so talented lol Love him so much! ❤️
Only discovered Randy Rainbow last year. He’s wonderful!
so talented..it's about time that the mainstream medias starts to talk about Randy...he's the best
YES!! I’ve been waiting for an hour and a half for Jimmy to post Randy Rainbow’s interview! 💙 I can sleep in peace tonight. 😊
Randy is brilliant. His parodies kept me smiling during the miserable Trump years. Very talented guy.
same here, up in Canada.
@@ruthfunk7433 Same here in Australia.
What was bad during Trumps presidency. I have a long list of horrors during the current presidency
I LOVE Randy!!! This is a wonderful moment for interwebs silliness come to life in the mainstream. Thank you Jimmy.
I love Randy. He's a great entertainer. I'm so happy he's getting the recognition he deserves.
Wish I had known he was going to be on the show. I would definitely have watched. Just glad to see it now. I bet Randy's career really takes off now.
OMG!!! I adore Randy, and I'm thrilled to see his amazing talents receiving this kind of attention. Randy, PLEASE keep those numbers coming, Girl!!! 💙🎶💙
I know....the worst part of his well deserved success was how long he left us without a new video when he was out on his recent tour (BTW I considered going, but it was 99% sold out the first day!! Not a fan of back rows, even for Randy lol. It was hard enough all Pandemic/Trump HELL to make it a month for a video....I am spoiled. NEED MORE! But will happily take what I get! Love the joy when I see a new RR vid dropped!
Randy is a genius. Thank goodness for his humor!
Two of the most smile inducing people in my life! Jimmy and RR.
SOOOOO happy to see Randy on Kimmel!!!!
I'm glad you're around, your political comedy is adding years to my life , thanks home boy👍
I can't help but adore Randy Rainbow! After all, he made me laugh even when I thought no one could.
I cannot love this enough!!! So thrilled for him!!!
he got me through 2016 to 2022. he's a national treasure
Randy is a musical and comedic genius and a legend in the making! So glad I found him. Thank you Jimmy Kimmel for having him on!!
Yeah, Randy's cool. Another national treasure!
Randy!! I’m glad he’s getting the recognition he deserves.
Don't know if this makes a difference. But, I've got to say- I'm in my '60's and LOVE this guy! He helped me through these last years
I love that Randy is really taking off. WAY overdue. Host SNL next, buddy!
That would be awesome!!
Randy helped me survive trump and the pandemic, I am so glad he figured out a way to put the worst news into witty laughable songs, He is awesome!
Randy Rainbow is such a gem! Love his videos so much!
Randy brings me so much joy.
