Season 17 episode 137, which aired on Thursday, October 10th, 2019, featured a wide variety of guests and segments.

The show opened with Kimmel's monologue, in which he joked about the news of the day and recent events in the world of entertainment. He touched on topics like the ongoing impeachment inquiry, the Democratic presidential candidates, and the controversy surrounding Daryl Morey's tweet about Hong Kong and the NBA.

Next up was a segment called "Generation Gap," in which Kimmel quizzes a young person and an older person on their knowledge of pop culture from the other's generation. This episode's contestants were a 25-year-old woman and a 67-year-old man. They were asked questions about everything from The Beatles to Snapchat, with some hilarious results.

After that, Kimmel welcomed his first guest of the night: actor Adam DeVine. DeVine has appeared in a number of movies and TV shows, including the Pitch Perfect series, Workaholics, and Modern Family. He discussed his new Netflix movie, "Between Two Ferns: The Movie," which is based on the popular Funny or Die web series. DeVine also talked about his experience filming a scene with Julia Roberts for the movie, and shared some behind-the-scenes stories from his various projects.

Following DeVine's interview, Kimmel introduced musical guest Sleater-Kinney. The punk rock band has been around since the mid-90s and has released nine studio albums. They performed their song "Can I Go On" from their latest album, "The Center Won't Hold."

After the musical performance, Kimmel sat down with his second guest of the night: model and actress Emily Ratajkowski. She discussed her role in the upcoming movie "Uncut Gems," which stars Adam Sandler, and talked about what it was like working on the set of the film. She also discussed her views on feminism and body positivity, as well as her recent marriage to actor and producer Sebastian Bear-McClard.

The final segment of the show was called "Lie Witness News," in which Kimmel sends a camera crew out onto the streets to ask people about fake news stories. For this episode, the crew asked people about a fake video of LeBron James dunking from the free throw line. Many of the interviewees claimed to have seen the video, despite the fact that it doesn't actually exist.

Overall, Season 17 episode 137 of Jimmy Kimmel Live! was a fun and entertaining episode that included a variety of interesting guests and segments. From Adam DeVine's comedic stories to Emily Ratajkowski's thoughtful insights, there was something for everyone to enjoy.
