Hey, everybody, this is Seth. We are not doing an episode of the Lonely Island and Seth Meyers podcast this week due to the developing situations of the fires in Los Angeles. A great many people who work on this podcast, including two of our co-hosts, are in Los Angeles. And so we just didn't think it was the right time to figure out how to do a new episode.

I would like to send out all of our best wishes and hopes for safety to anyone who is going through this terrible time right now, and also send our gratitude to the Los Angeles Fire Department and the first responders and everyone who is making this difficult situation even a little bit better for the people who are affected. This is a very short episode and we did hear your feedback loud and clear last time and there will not be ads. And since there is no episode, I would like you to, if you care to, enjoy Andy the last time he was on Late Night with Seth Meyers, his performance as a French pole vaulter

who made news at the Olympics. Thanks again for your understanding. We hope to be back together with you all soon. I do want to talk about the fact that we do a podcast together -"The Lonely Island and Seth Meyers Podcast." Seth, I love the cast, but I'm going to hijack this real quick You're going to hijack what? The interview? The whole show. Look.

You remember when we were on SNL and I would sometimes come to your office because I saw a story that I thought would make a funny weekend update feature? Yeah, of course. Okay. Did you see that story this summer during the Olympics about the French pole vaulter who knocked the bar down with his giant dong?

Oh, yeah. Yeah, I saw. That would have been good. Yeah, it would have been good. Should we do it now, though? Great. Wally, get the cards. Wait, what? That happened this summer! All right.

Uh, in that case, uh, please welcome the French pole vaulter who knocked the bar down with his giant dog. ["The Greatest Showman"] ["The Greatest Showman"] ["The Greatest Showman"] ["The Greatest Showman"] ["The Greatest Showman"]

["The Greatest Showman"] Oh! Bonsoir, Seth! Well, thanks for being here. Oh, merci for having me. So, obviously, a bittersweet ending to your Olympic dream. Oui, oui, it was sad to not win the gold. But on the other hand, the entire world now saw my gift.

Has this been a problem before? The size of my gift? Yeah. Ah, oui. And not just in the pole vault. I also tried hurdles, but I kept knocking them over. You see, the sum of my junk is quite grand, Seth. In French, grand means big.

They are also grand English usage. Are you planning on competing in the next Olympics? -"Oui, oui." Yeah, it is either that or go back to my old job. I was how you say a windshield wiper for trucks? Okay. Is that how you say? Is that how you say? Yes. Yes, we say windshield wiper for trucks.

Ah, bien, bien, bien. And to the people of France who I let down, let me say, I am sorry. Or as we say in France, pardon. Or as I say in my home, pardon. Or as they say in the bullpen of the office where I work, holy crap, that guy just knocked everything off my desk with his giant wang.

Is that how you say, Seth? Yeah, I don't know. Is that how you say, ah, bien, bien, bien? And to everyone out there who say, I should have talked, I did. Why? Why, if I may ask, are you talking about this now? It happened so long ago.

Do you know what else is so long? I do. I do. My gift. Yeah, yeah. As for why, now, I left for New York as soon as the Olympics ended, but I travel very slowly on account of my how-you-say, big old floppy wiener. Stop saying how you say." -"What is that how you say? Big old floppy wiener?"

-"Yes! That's how we say." -"Ah, bien, bien. Excuse me for a moment. I am so hungry, Seth. Oh. Oh. Seth, do you know what this reminds you of? It doesn't. It doesn't remind me of anything. I bet it does a little bit.

Ah? Ah! Hey, this is, I just want to say, this is a real dude, right? I mean, are these jokes okay? I mean, if anyone can make jokes about people with huge dogs, it's a guy with a tiny one. Okay. Surprised you're willing to admit that.

Wait, I was talking about you! Jesus Christ. Hey, Seth! Yeah? Do you think this is going to win late night on vulture.com this week? No, I did not. Okay. Oh, Seth, I saw your friend

Colleen Jost was at the Olympics. Is it true he lost a foot? No. No, he had an infection, but he didn't lose a foot. Ah, I see. Do you know how I could lose a foot? How? Cut off a third of my...!" -"Oh, ho! Really worth it. Really worth it.

Don't do it, time is past. Andy Samberg, everybody. It was Andy this whole time. Leeds and Dieners Friday. Check out the Lonely Island in Judd Mayer's pocket. You can't use pockets when you're on vacation.
