  • November 12, 2009

Late Night with Jimmy Fallon was a talk show that premiered in 2009, hosted by comedian and former Saturday Night Live cast member Jimmy Fallon. This particular episode, season one episode 148, featured actress Kate Walsh, magician duo Penn & Teller, and hip-hop group Goodie Mob.

The episode opened with Jimmy Fallon delivering his opening monologue, cracking jokes about current events and pop culture. He then introduced his first guest, Kate Walsh, known for her roles on Grey's Anatomy and Private Practice. Walsh discussed her love of yoga and the difficulties of performing a particular inversion pose. She also talked about her involvement with the non-profit organization Operation Smile, which provides free surgeries to children around the world who have cleft lip and palate.

Next up were Penn & Teller, a magic act that has been performing together for over 40 years. Fallon was visibly excited to have them on the show, having been a big fan of theirs for years. The duo performed a few tricks for the audience, including one involving a flaming torch and another that appeared to transport an audience member's signed dollar bill from one glass to another. They also demonstrated how they perform one of their signature tricks, where Teller appears to have a screwdriver driven through his hand. Fallon was in disbelief, exclaiming "You guys are freaking me out!" throughout the segment.

The final guest of the night was Goodie Mob, a hip-hop group from Atlanta. This was their first appearance on Late Night with Jimmy Fallon, and they performed their hit song "Soul Food" for the audience. Fallon joined in on the performance, dancing along with the group and even attempting to rap along to the lyrics. After the performance, the group sat down with Fallon to chat about their new album and their experience working with producer CeeLo Green. They also discussed their early years as a group and the evolution of their sound over time.

Throughout the episode, Fallon also conducted a few comedic bits, including a segment called "Pros and Cons" where he weighed the pros and cons of various topics (such as "playing in the snow" and "eating an entire pizza by yourself") and a game called "Charades" where he and Walsh competed against Penn & Teller in a game of charades.

Overall, season one episode 148 of Late Night with Jimmy Fallon was a fun and entertaining episode featuring a diverse lineup of guests. From Walsh's discussion of yoga and philanthropy to Penn & Teller's mind-bending magic tricks to Goodie Mob's lively performance, there was something for everyone to enjoy. Fallon's enthusiasm and humor throughout the episode also added to the overall enjoyment of the show.
