Thank you.
2
Thank you.
3
Thank you.
4
Thank you.
5
That doesn't happen all the time, just so you know.
6
That's...
7
That's...
8
That's...
9
That's like the Kelly Closon crowd is amazing.
10
I don't...
11
I think it's you.
12
It's the thing.
13
Yeah, I think it's y'all.
14
Yes, um, congratulations.
15
I'm gonna get to the film.
16
It's incredible.
17
Thank you.
18
I love when you two are in life.
19
Thank you.
20
Like, anytime I see you two now, like, ever since Jungle Cruise, I'm like, I'll watch it.
21
Like, I love the chemistry of y'all, even though it's very different.
22
But your kids are here, right?
23
They are.
24
Your kiddos are here as well?
25
Yeah, they're the same age as mine.
26
I forgot that our kids are literally the same age.
27
So you have 11 and 9.
28
Yeah.
29
Boy, girl, two- Boy, girl.
30
Yeah.
31
It's like, I didn't realize that, though.
32
My kids are out of school today, too.
33
I know.
34
So I dragged them here.
35
They're mainly excited to see you and him.
36
I think it's less about me.
37
I think probably him, but that's all right, I'll take it.
38
You took them, is it, to the U.S.
39
Open?
40
We went to the U.S.
41
Open, yeah.
42
Really into tennis?
43
They love a tennis match.
44
Okay.
45
Patiently sat there.
46
I mean, me and my little one were the only Alcaraz fans in the Italian box.
47
That can be difficult.
48
That were all cheering for Sinner, so we were doing surreptitious screams of joy for Alcaraz.
49
Yeah.
50
While the Italians were just, like, despairing about Sinner.
51
She actually gave me some great advice, because, you know, the Jumbotron comes on you, so you've got to be ready.
52
Yeah.
53
And apparently with the right person.
54
Yeah.
55
And so at one point she like lent over because I was like checking my phone.
56
She went, you need to get a smile on your face
57
because that could come over and you're going to be like that.
58
Enjoying the match.
59
Exactly.
60
Yeah.
61
And they only catch you at that one moment. Of course.
62
It's like, come on.
63
The double chin moment.
64
You're like, oh, come on.
65
Like, I was watching.
66
I was watching.
67
I heard that you're, is your oldest into wrestling?
68
She is a wrestler.
69
Yeah.
70
That's amazing.
71
Yeah.
72
She followed in my footsteps.
73
There she is.
74
That's an incredible thing.
75
Yeah, it's Simone.
76
Yes.
77
Were you so proud?
78
Well, she obviously grew up in wrestling.
79
So that was something that she had fallen in love with.
80
Extremely proud.
81
But here's the thing.
82
I was even more proud.
83
And I love telling this story is that not one time when she told me, hey, I want to do what you do.
84
I love wrestling.
85
I see some wrestling fans out here, too.
86
She's like, I love wrestling.
87
But I never got the call.
88
I never got the call from her.
89
Hey, can you call WWE?
90
She wanted to do it all on her own.
91
I never got the call.
92
I'm so proud of her because she's going great.
93
Yeah.
94
That's cool.
95
It's also just cool when they're interested in something you've been a part of.
96
You know what I'm saying?
97
That's really rad.
98
You're like, oh, you can connect on that.
99
Do your kids think you're a great singer and think you're cool or do they?
100
They're still in the phase when they do think, I do sometimes feel like a superhero when I come.
101
Like it's like the crowd will give you like the energy but sometimes yeah, I come off and like how my kids still look at me.
102
I'm like, oh, this is not going to last.
103
You know what I'm saying?
104
So they're still in that stage where I impress them.
105
Yes, I'm very excited.
106
I'm sort of white-knuckling it, clinging on to that.
107
Right, guys?
108
Last time we were together, I mentioned it was Jungle Cruise, which I, look, it's one of those films my family we put on all the time.
109
I just love your chemistry. So happy.
110
And I love that y'all got together again to do this, but it's very different, which I love.
111
Totally different landscape.
112
This ended up happening because of Oppenheimer, right?
113
You were on the set?
114
Well, I know that DJ had spoken to Benny, like, three years prior.
115
2019. You were inspired by the documentary.
116
I was inspired by the documentary.
117
He was, like, riveted by that.
118
I watched Benny work.
119
I knew Benny was the guy.
120
Yes, talked to Benny, and then it went away.
121
I'm gonna keep talking over you.
122
Watch this, yes.
123
Welcome to my life.
124
I'm so sorry.
125
Keep going.
126
No, no, no, go ahead.
127
Tell your story.
128
No, go ahead.
129
Tell your story.
130
I know it began...
131
No, I know it began a long time ago, because you were inspired by the story, right?
132
By Mark Kerr, I was.
133
Yes.
134
And then Benny and I agreed to do it in 2019, and then COVID hit, and then it all went away and then cut to Oppenheimer's set.
135
Yeah, but this is all about a sweater, I heard.
136
Like, it's all about a sweater.
137
So Benny and I are in the makeup trailer and he goes, you're friends with Dwayne, right?
138
And I went, yeah.
139
And he goes, did he get the sweater I sent him?
140
Like as if he would know that information.
141
Yeah, as if I'm sort of privy to gift giving.
142
His wardrobe.
143
Yeah, his wardrobe.
144
I said, what do you mean?
145
What sweater?
146
And then he told me about the smashing machine, told me they were going to do it.
147
And this was a very famous sweater that Mark Kerr wore in the documentary.
148
It's a yellow Nautica sweater.
149
and Benny had, during COVID, really wanted to still implore DJ, like, I still want to do this movie with you.
150
He found a sweater.
151
He found the Nautica sweater online, sent it to Dwayne with an impassioned note, and he never got the sweater.
152
So Benny thought he was being ghosted.
153
He thought that Benny had never reached out, so they really had this breakup, and it was sad, and so I got them to date again.
154
Look, you're like, Jesus, bringing people together.
155
I really am.
156
Look at that.
157
I mean, I wouldn't want to say it, but you're right.
158
You're right.
159
You nailed it, actually.
160
Now, if you look at their roof, then the smashing machine.
161
In it, they play a couple dealing with relationship issues and addiction, all wrapped up in the world of mixed martial arts fighting.
162
And that scene kind of is a really good kind of depiction of the show.
163
It's these really intense moments that are beautiful, but, like, tragic.
164
Like, you know, even the, like, tear, like, wire.
165
But I want you to explain to everybody kind of the...
166
You saw the documentary, right?
167
I saw the documentary based on Mark Kerr, and I thought it was...
168
It's a really compelling story.
169
He's...
170
Mark Kerr was one of the founding godfathers of MMA.
171
and he wound up having, there he is right there, he had this incredible career, he was undefeated at one time.
172
He was the greatest fighter on the planet.
173
And like a lot of these fighters, you learn it's not about the wins or the losses, it's about the pressure and the pressure that they have to go through and what happens when sometimes they stumble.
174
And in Mark's case, he stumbled, he had a hard time with addiction, he overdosed twice, he was lucky to be alive.
175
He was with the love of his life and they have a beautiful kid together, They're divorced now, but they also had an incredibly challenging relationship, too, as well.
176
And, of course, Emily...
177
No sh.
178
No sh.
179
It's wild.
180
I was watching, and I was like, oh, my God.
181
Those fights they have that we have are crazy.
182
They're like volcanic fights that they had.
183
It was wild.
184
Yeah.
185
Emily asked if you were scared when you started filming, right?
186
And what happened with that question?
187
So this role for me was the biggest challenge of my career, and I knew it going into it.
188
So it was a scary thing.
189
But us, for me, and for a lot of men, it's not the thing we always want to admit, that we're scared to do something.
190
So she, on our first day of shooting, she goes, hey, are you scared?
191
And I said, I'm good.
192
And then she goes, but that's not what I asked you.
193
I said, are you scared?
194
And I said, I am.
195
Yeah, so she's like, that's good.
196
It means it matters.
197
It matters, yes.
198
Yeah, you've got to be scared.
199
It's good to be scared.
200
Yeah, I, yeah, but I, it's just incredible transformation as well.
201
And like what you have to do with your body to prepare for it.
202
I was just like, oh no. 30 pounds.
203
No. I was like, it just looks so hard, all of it.
204
Yes.
205
Physically, emotionally, I was like, you are a different human.
206
You filmed to Japan, which I love Japan.
207
It's incredible.
208
I heard that you went to, whenever I went, I didn't go.
209
You went to an immersive art museum in Tokyo?
210
It was the best.
211
I know.
212
So we went to it like an after hours and I sent some pictures of us.
213
Yeah.
214
Oh look at that.
215
There it is.
216
Yeah.
217
That's Benny our director.
218
Yeah.
219
Isn't that wild?
220
Is it true Benny Hedge all listen to 90s music?
221
Oh the best playlist.
222
Love 90s.
223
Yeah.
224
The best from Sublime to yeah.
225
A lot of Springsteen.
226
The eight minute song The Jungle Land which is in a movie that's in there.
227
I mean the Billy Swann cover of Don't Be Cruel in the film.
228
Insane.
229
No I'm obsessed with that.
230
I'm totally ripping off the idea and doing it as a Kelly I was like, is this?
231
Me and my manager were like, is this Don't Be Cruel?
232
I was like, what's happening?
233
It's so gorgeous, that song.
234
It's the coolest version.
235
Honestly, whoever did the music and the film just nailed it.
236
Like, you know what I'm saying?
237
It just really elevated.
238
Well, Benny did everything.
239
Like, that's all Benny's vision.
240
God, it's so cool.
241
Yeah, he really did.
242
It really does, like...
243
Really, you feel like you're in that time.
244
You do.
245
And he sent us the list when we were rehearsing, when we were building these characters.
246
Like, that was the soundtrack of this movie.
247
We played it in the trailer.
248
It was so evocative and cool.
249
Yeah, John Cicada was...
250
It was so cool.
251
What do you hope people, like, the overall takeaway, because I think people might have the, you know, you see Smash Machine, you think, oh, it's going to be about fighting, right?
252
It's actually not about fighting, I feel like.
253
So what do you hope people take away from it?
254
I mean, I guess I hope that people feel somewhat soothed by how much they relate to him,
255
that no one can relate to the guy who's the heavyweight champ of the world, but we all relate to struggle.
256
And I think if you can walk away understanding the idea that don't let your need to succeed,
257
your need to win eclipse your need to be okay.
258
And I would say to add to that is when you watch these fighters, whether you're a big fan of MMA, UFC, and you watch these women and men fight,
259
the thing to remember too is they sacrifice everything when they go in the cage.
260
Literally, they put their lives on the line.
261
They're not the only ones.
262
It's the wives at home, the husbands at home, the kids.
263
So much sacrifice.
264
So much sacrifice goes on that you never see.
265
Yeah.
266
It just must hurt a little bit now that he knows, like, how much these people are paid.
267
And it's like, man, I paved the way, you know?
268
And they weren't paid that amount.
269
And it's like, oh.
270
But I think actually when we premiered in Venice and, you know, the cards that come up at the end
271
and it says his name was Mark Kerr and it really is this, like, embrace of who he is.
272
The crowd went insane.
273
And Mark just cried and cried because I think the recognition
274
that he's he's had a life worth living rather than a life that he...
275
Was ashamed about.
276
Was ashamed about, like, what he did and his addiction.
277
He owns it beautifully, but I think it was, like, in that moment, I saw this, like, reclamation of his imprint on the world, and it was so beautiful.
278
Well, there's so many lessons in tragedy.
279
Like, that's...
280
Completely.
281
That's what I think is beautiful about that.
282
Completely, yeah.
283
Welcome back.
284
Emily Blunt and Dwayne Johnson are here, and we all have...
285
That's gone!
286
This is super cool.
287
Their new movie is called The Smashing Machine.
288
In honor of that movie, it is time for our producers to make a fool of us in a game called...
289
I mean, that was pretty hot.
290
I like that.
291
Okay, God and the Machine, a little help.
292
Oh, wow.
293
Thank you.
294
Yes, it is I, Kelly.
295
I am here to help.
296
And what's up, Emily?
297
What's up, Dwayne?
298
How you doing?
299
What's up?
300
Today, we've got a game where all the answers are machines or have to do with machines.
301
If you know the answer, you're going to smash the button.
302
See what I did there with the boxing gloves that you're wearing.
303
If you answer and you're wrong, the other two can still have a chance.
304
Here's question number one.
305
Okay.
306
In the Smashing Machine movie, some of you may be familiar with that, Emily's character makes a snack for DJ's character by mashing
307
and combining a bunch of ingredients in a machine with blades in the bottom.
308
Oh, DJ.
309
Blender.
310
You got it.
311
That's one point on the board for Dwayne.
312
Very hard.
313
This is very hard.
314
That's how you do it.
315
All right, here we go.
316
Shaking things up.
317
Here's your next machine.
318
Okay.
319
In school, you would put your number twos in this machine and grind them down to...
320
Dwayne.
321
Show off.
322
Sorry, go.
323
No, no. You got it.
324
I missed it.
325
I know you didn't.
326
You made it.
327
No, you got it.
328
Were the number twos in this machine?
329
Yes.
330
No, not that kind of number two.
331
Not what you think.
332
It's not what you think.
333
No, no. I'm so...
334
No, no, Emily.
335
No, no. Wait a second.
336
Oh, boy.
337
I was like, what school did you guys go to?
338
Oh, my God.
339
You know it.
340
You were like, oh my God, that was, best part of the game.
341
Go ahead.
342
Unbelievable, sharpener, pencil sharpener.
343
You got it, it's a pencil sharpener.
344
That's two points.
345
And Dwayne, you are in the lead.
346
That was a bad point today.
347
Pencil sharpener.
348
Oh my God.
349
What machine was named because it was originally used to literally grind mill and grains by having people, oh, Kelly.
350
Oh, no, oh, I might be a coffee grinder?
351
I don't know, I don't know.
352
It is not a coffee grinder, so now.
353
I said grind, I don't know.
354
I will finish the question.
355
Oh, Emily.
356
Like a mill?
357
It does have mill in the word, you are close.
358
Sawmill?
359
I don't know.
360
I'm gonna continue with the question.
361
Yeah.
362
That'd be great.
363
People could literally grind mill and grains by having people walk or tread on belts for hours as punishment.
364
Oh, a- Treadmill.
365
There you go.
366
All right.
367
I'm gonna give it to you.
368
I'm gonna give it to you, Dwayne.
369
How badly we're getting beat is, like, sad.
370
I'm getting sad.
371
Destroyed.
372
Well, Dwayne is just crushing it.
373
Come on, Kelly and Emily.
374
Let's get it together.
375
Come on.
376
Smacking it.
377
Oh.
378
Here is your next machine.
379
Okay.
380
What party machine is found in a private room and allows you to sing Sam Cooke's...
381
I better have gotten Milton.
382
Karaoke!
383
Karaoke.
384
That's right.
385
I would've been really sad if I had missed that one. That one.
386
You got it, Kelly.
387
Around here, we call it kellyokey.
388
Yeah, we do, guys.
389
Don't never go out and do karaoke with Kelly.
390
She will sing your ass out the room.
391
She will crush every time.
392
Unless I've been drinking.
393
Okay, here's the next machine.
394
What warm, bubbly machine was turned into a time machine in a movie starring Craig Robinson and...
395
Hot Tub Machine.
396
Oh, oh, oh.
397
You got it, Blaine.
398
Yeah.
399
Boom!
400
Hot Tub Time Machine.
401
I'm so incredible.
402
It's so good.
403
It's so boring.
404
It's boring winning, right?
405
Love that hot tub time machine.
406
He wants a challenge.
407
He needs new players.
408
All right, come on, y'all.
409
We're not good.
410
Come on, y'all.
411
Here we go.
412
Come on, Emily, we're gonna get you on the board yet.
413
I know.
414
I feel good things for you.
415
All right, I'm pulling for you.
416
Here we go.
417
This machine really sucks.
418
But that's good, because then it gets all those...
419
Kelly.
420
Like a vacuum?
421
It's a vacuum.
422
Boom.
423
It's a vacuum.
424
You got it.
425
And that's what I'm talking about here.
426
Okay, here we go.
427
Here's the next question.
428
All right.
429
What machine commonly used for cutting down trees was also famously used in film, Kelly?
430
Chainsaw, a saw.
431
Chainsaw.
432
Chainsaw, yep.
433
But you know what?
434
Nope.
435
Chainsaw.
436
But because Emily also said Chainsaw Massacre, which was the title of the movie, I'm gonna give you a point, Emily.
437
What?
438
Hold on a second.
439
Wait a second.
440
Hey, hey.
441
Morgan Freeman, that's .
442
How dare you.
443
For legal reasons, I am not Morgan Freeman.
444
Okay, I'm gonna make things very interesting because that sound is not the end of the game, but it does mean we have time for a single sudden death round.
445
So whoever gets this wins it all because I'm God in the makeup room.
446
Can you imagine?
447
Here we go.
448
Dwayne doesn't have much use for this machine, but some people spend hours using it to get blowouts.
449
What is it?
450
Emily.
451
And you have just won it all.
452
How about that?
453
The winner by knockout is Emily Blunt.
454
She won.
455
What a major upset.
456
Congratulations.
457
That was amazing.
458
Yeah, that was amazing.
459
The last one.
460
Thank you, voice of God.
461
Give it up one more time for Emily Blunt and Gwen Johnson.
462
I'm so sorry.

Wat is de Shadowing-techniek?
Shadowing is een wetenschappelijk onderbouwde taalleermethode die oorspronkelijk is ontwikkeld voor professionele tolkentraining en gepopulariseerd door polyglot Dr. Alexander Arguelles. De methode is eenvoudig maar krachtig: je luistert naar native Engelse audio en herhaalt het onmiddellijk hardop — als een schaduw die de spreker volgt met slechts 1–2 seconden vertraging. In tegenstelling tot passief luisteren of grammaticadrills, dwingt shadowing je hersenen en mondspieren om echte spraakpatronen tegelijkertijd te verwerken en te reproduceren. Onderzoek toont aan dat het de uitspraaknauwkeurigheid, intonatie, ritme, verbonden spraak, luisterbegrip en spreekvaardigheid aanzienlijk verbetert — waardoor het een van de meest effectieve methoden is voor IELTS Speaking-voorbereiding en echte Engelse communicatie.
