The Queen of England Has a New Ride

After James checks in with his guests Patricia Arquette and Ben Schwartz, who is stealing everything he can before the show comes to an end, he asks the gang if they would like to separate their work and personal memories, a la Patricia's show "Severance". And then it's time for the news. President Biden is back from his trip to Asia, the last public payphone has been removed from New York City, and the Queen of England has a new tricked out golf cart. Plus, our cameraman Pete tries to convince James that the Queen used to drive big trucks.

HM did more than drive trucks during WWII, she worked as a mechanic. How a Brit doesn’t know this is unfathomable!!

[@tribalchum1]

I’m a Brit and I didn’t know. 😳

[@cheftodaydjtomorrow410]

Wow

[@sweiland75]

That's hilarious Pete and I and surely many other non-Brits knew she was a mechanic during the War.

[@joanne4758]

swelland - Watching from New Zealand - can't believe he's never seen photos of her working on the trucks. (Wonder if he did know??)

[@dt3802]

Non-Brit here and I did. She not only drove trucks she learned how to fix them. How does a Brit not know this?

[@tinas_hotdog_sophie]

I have a feeling, James is more likely the only brit not knowing that :P

[@jimmyendacott8663]

These shows are 95% scripted. James did know, it was just a humorous way to introduce the topic.

[@patriciazandilencube4597]

@@dt3802 Non-Brit here also. Can't believe he didn't know this. Like how? It's the most bad ass thing about her! A few years ago she even fixed her range rover when it broke down on her estate!

[@kotkaconforza]

The Queen drives/drove Land Rovers all the time. Apparently like a bat out of hell because some foreign dignitaries were kind scared to drive with her.

[@davidlawrence5091]

Including for a member of the Sauldi Royal family, when women weren't allowed to drive in is own country. Though she rides to be neutral, she is capable of making subtle points now and then.

[@rikkiechambers4959]

Go Pete , gotta love a guy that knows his history ! And love that fins up salute for the queen 😅

[@pooman2]

She was a mechanic as well

[@jlbueno0611]

James about to lose brittish citizenship for not knowing about the queen driving trucks 😅😅😅 ...

[@M_Jaggard]

If he thinks he can just waltz back here after another year of this show he's got another thing coming.

[@Winteramen]

I mean, immediately after not knowing the queen drove trucks in WW2, James segued into a story about American hotdog brand Ballpark. He's so lost in his American now

[@Jayess-c]

Lol and that mini fridge is prolly just full of her blood incase something happens and she needs a transfusion

[@Junebugreen]

Good. We’ll keep him.

[@england6013]

@@Winteramen That's OK. You can have him

[@The_Real_Mier]

The Queen didn’t just DRIVE trucks in WWII, she REPAIRED them too! I’m very surprised that James didn’t know this!

[@twoofsix3b3g]

oh I think he knew ! But he couldn't resist taking a pop at The Queen

[@Winteramen]

Ngl that clip at the end...oowahwah Liz was looking good back 70 years ago

[@manu-tonyo9654]

Me too, thought He was faking it at first.

[@jasonpypsaeris4643]

Oh yea “Fins Up Baby” 😃🤚

[@hollymacintyre2643]

The Queen (Princess Elizabeth at the time), not only drove trucks, but also repaired vehicles during WWII

[@Boomer_Johnson]

Seriously.... I'm an AMERICAN and I know about the Queen's service. She drove and repaired trucks. She has lead an extraordinary life.

[@jedidiahm6437]

Ben is freaking hilarious. Lmao I hear you're leaving in a year I'm gonna steal as much shit as I can haha

[@YeeSoest]

We have one more year and NOW we realize James could have selected Guillermos Outfits the entire time? Well, let's make this last year one for the late night fashion history books, shall we?

[@jessicafranz3247]

Guillermo is going to be wearing a puffy sleeved shirt if he’s not careful!

[@samandspot]

I can’t believe James doesn’t know the Queen not only drove trucks but was fine 👩‍🔧 mechanic

[@sylvias1546]

Gotta love Pete 🦈

[@kingofthesharks]

5:32 Kids today: "Payphone? How's that even a phone if it doesn't have a camera!?"

[@Alice_Tiburcio]

How did James not know the Queen's role in WWII?? Not only she drove an ambulance, she was also a mechanic! (And it is on one episode of The Crown. The one her father died and she was somewhere in Africa... the car she was in got overheated and she got up to have a look saying something like "oh don't worry, I was a mechanic during the war")

[@graciousmoraa1591]

She was in kenya 🇰🇪

[@samiasultana44]

Yeap

[@bigsteve77948]

Pete calling for his Clip to be rolled. has to be the best camera man in the business.

[@danielgregory3295]

Looked pretty well scripted...🖖🇺🇸

[@francescaa8331]

Fins Up Pete for knowing your history!

[@KrakenIsland64]

Lol I didn't know Jean-Ralphio was even famous outside Parks and Rec. He was great in that show and it was funny to see him here.

[@Verena3383]

She was not Queen then, but Princess, therefore it is not in "The Crown". She has also worked as a mechanic in 2nd world war.

[@carolynkettle1690]

The Queen was a mechanic and James is just actin’ the fool…✌🏽❤️🇨🇦

[@doninis1354]

The story of the queen is awsom...they shoulde make a video or series of it...oh...they did already...well good then! 😉 I am not british and I knew that already! Power woman...very fascinating! She is actually on my list of people I would like to meet.

[@kevinmaurice6018]

You tell him Pete! Haha

[@terrydougherty5714]

Never knew that the Night Talk Shows provide clothes to for all the bandmembers to wear too!

[@gorak9000]

Hot dog helmet that only dispenses oversweetened american red condiment and tasteless american yellow condiment? No thanks. I'll take my smokie (or polish sausage) with relish, raw onion, and Keens mustard that actually has flavour thanks, and a little gochujang paste on the bun and a hint of honey garlic sauce is just [chef's kiss]

[@senju_07]

7 years already, damn.

[@RandomMomentsWithKelly-du6lo]

I absolutely love Steve 💗🙏💗

[@notAshildr]

James must be the only person from Britain who'd ever agree to pretend he didn't know the queen's history as a smoking hot, truck-driving, wrench-slinging bad-ass war mechanic. Every child has seen the photos.

[@rd6203]

5:18 Matching!

[@oilerfreak]

As a Canadian we too learned of her service in the RAF(?) in England, she was a mechanic and worked on all manors of vehicles.

[@warpig24v81]

Could you imagine if he read this and invited me to the show I’m talking EPIC

[@macking104]

no pay phones booths... where will Super Man change his outfit?

[@waqarkhan25]

just after the show was about to finish James recorded a heart fell for the shooting in Texas school shooting yet again

[@asteverino8569]

Lovely

[@ShannonJacobs0]

No Superman jokes about the pay phone?

[@paulp4559]

She is the queen of Britain not just England, c'mon

[@joanne4758]

Paul P - Well spotted. And then you got me thinking: (& I googled) The Queen is currently: Elizabeth II, by the Grace of God, of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland and of Her other Realms and Territories Queen, Head of the Commonwealth, Defender of the Faith. (Regards from NZ)

[@jamalfiso6447]

Interestingly Joanne, in case you did not know but in NZ she has a slightly altered title. Elizabeth the Second, by the grace of God, Queen of New Zealand and Her other Realms and Territories, Head of the Commonwealth, Defender of the Faith.

[@projecti305]

New British super car 🚘 🤩🤩🤩

[@wylieroth3145]

Careful Guillermo, someday a low-talker is going to have you wearing a puffy-shirt.

“But I don’t WANNA look like a pirate!”

[@minera3529]

R.I.P

[@ayol1011]

So is Ben Schwartz just Jean Ralphio in real life?

[@gorak9000]

Is there a difference? Pretty sure Jean Ralphio isn't a character so much as a stage name

[@ader6673]

Hoping you pick Guillermo's outfits next week! And damn, ppl in the comments intense over nothing, for such a lighthearted show, we got some high strung ppl here lol

[@annewilsdorf8489]

With the... How ever at this time ratet Kommentar... I hope I'm not to late late late late.......... 😂😂😂😂

[@rickythe2nd63]

Not only did Her Majesty drive trucks in WWII, she FIXED them too!

[@katee7187]

Only England? I'm pretty sure she's the Queen of the rest of the United Kingdom too...

[@The_Real_Mier]

I hate to be the one to burst your bubble, but there are many, MANY people who don’t exactly know the difference (or the connection) between the United Kingdom, Great-Britain, England, Ireland, North-Ireland, Scotland and Wales… Which is not so surprising when you don’t live there!!

[@lindamccormack9862]

Yup. I pointed this out too.

[@vng]

The queen drives trucks and other vehicles too, and quite aggressively.

[@christophermerlot3366]

Hell anyone who has seen Helen Mirren play the Queen knows she was a trained mechanic and drove trucks in WWII. Much less took a history course somewhere.

[@Jackjohnjay]

She drove Landrovers around her extensive acreage off-roading for pleasure until very recently.

[@ZeroAnalogy]

I thought you were going to talk about the new Elizabeth Line. Cleary that would not have been as funny.

[@gorak9000]

He covered the Elizabeth line in a previous episode - or maybe that was Colbert. Either way that's last week's news already.

[@nicolaablett7790]

He's driving the Queen no matter the vehicle Most people know Lizzie worked as truck driver and mechanics

[@asiyahkhan444]

How does he not know that she also drove Land Rover.

[@Lenore4Evermore]

FINS UP :)

She's a trained mechanic, dude.

[@storiesbydarksaberlight1517]

History Time with Pete!

[@jpdj2715]

Note, James, that the "State Limousines" of Queen E2 are Bentley, not RR. No Spirit of Ecstasy on these cars. The flying B on the car carrying the queen has its flying B replaced by E2's personal mascot - a dragon-slayer called George, or a standing lion in Scotland. If you have to ask how much these are then you cannot afford them - they're guesstimated at GBP 10M each. All that pomp and circumstance may have been too much for her, or so it seems.

[@ktom5262]

A shame that James the Brit didn't know the Queen drove emergency trucks during WWII.

[@flashcar60]

Elizabeth was only a princess when she drove that truck.

[@kingofthesharks]

Is it an apt metaphor to say the Queen used to drive truckloads but now she's just along for the ride

[@Neo101ai]

Wow, James! Shocked. WOW!!! U sure ur a Brit? Maybe Wales. Her go-to car when there are no cameras is an old model Landrover.

[@samiasultana44]

Oh James you know sooo little about tge QUEEN. Be careful when you return to England 🤣

[@luciasignorini7397]

The queen has driven a range rover for years in one of her palaces

[@randomname4726]

Was the orchid thing a joke?

[@jesto3740]

So glad Queen has her electric cart. She should have her mini electric cart that she may use to get around at those garden parties and special events (unless she has poor eyesight).

[@ShesHereForTheMusic]

All of a sudden everyone is an expert on the Queen thanks to watching The Crown. 😂 Unashamedly I too like the Queen and have learned everything I know about her from watching The Crown. 😂

[@ZeroAnalogy]

James did not know about the queen's former driving prowess? Know wonder you were useless on those British comedy quiz shows.

[@lisamartinbradley1039]

Wasn't the queen also a mechanic during the war? How does James not know these things?

[@Diamondmine212]

James your soo thick ,she was in the ATS during THE WAR,its well known ,she joined once she turned 18.She drove trucks ,amulances and was good at repairing them. something she enjoyed doing throughout her life.
