Left-wing host Jimmy Fallon took a light-hearted jab at former President Joe Biden during a recent episode of NBC’s The Tonight Show. He cracked jokes about Biden’s age and his forthcoming memoir, quipping that the book reflects the former president’s memories as “so it’s three pages.”
In his monologue, Fallon shared the news that Biden’s memoir is set for release in November, mentioning that “this book was written by a ghostwriter, Joe Biden,” further poking fun at his age.
He pointed out that this is Biden’s second book, humorously comparing it to the ancient Greek epic Odyssey. Fallon continued, “It’s a bit of a strange book because Kamala Harris starts writing at the end,” hinting at the challenges surrounding the later stages of Biden’s presidency as he approaches the 2024 election.
During the episode, a quirky video montage featuring the cast of 2026 movies was also showcased. This montage, which tries to summarize the Odyssey story in just one minute, drew harsh critiques on social media.
Stars like Matt Damon, Tom Holland, and Anne Hathaway appeared in the montage. One viewer remarked, “Homer is rolling in his grave regretting writing this book,” while another expressed embarrassment about watching it. Comments poured in, with comparisons to fourth-grade projects and disbelief over the rap video made to promote the Odyssey.
In light of these reactions, podcaster Benny Johnson chimed in, criticizing the trend among Hollywood stars, asserting, “America, it’s a shame that theater kids are going crazy again.”
