-TONIGHT, THE PICKLEBALL REVOLUTION WILL BE TELEVISED
AS 16 OF THE WORLD'S MOST POPULAR ENTERTAINERS:
JIMMIE ALLEN, MURRAY BARTLETT,
DIERKS BENTLEY, JAIME CAMIL,
WILL FERRELL, MAX GREENFIELD,
LUIS GUZMAN, PHIL KEOGHAN,
DANIEL DAE KIM, SUGAR RAY LEONARD,
TIG NOTARO, JUNE DIANE RAPHAEL,
KELLY ROWLAND, PAUL SCHEER,
AISHA TYLER, AND EMMA WATSON
WILL GO HEAD TO HEAD, TOE TO TOE AND PADDLE TO PADDLE.
STEPHEN COLBERT AND "FUNNY OR DIE"
PRESENT "PICKLED," A PICKLEBALL TOURNAMENT FOR COMIC RELIEF.
AND NOW YOUR HOST, STEPHEN COLBERT.
-HELLO, EVERYBODY. I'M STEPHEN COLBERT
AND WELCOME TO "PICKLED."
WE'RE HERE AT SHERWOOD COUNTRY CLUB
IN BEAUTIFUL THOUSAND OAKS, CALIFORNIA,
A CITY WHERE THEY COUNT THEIR TREES.
TODAY, WE HAVE A FRONT ROW SEAT
TO A CELEBRITY PICKLEBALL TOURNAMENT UNLIKE ANY OTHER.
MOSTLY BECAUSE THERE HAVEN'T BEEN ANY OTHERS.
WE'VE GOT STARS OF THE SILVER SCREEN,
MUSIC, AND TELEVISION -- ICONS ALL.
BUT THEY'VE ALL PUT ASIDE THEIR BUSY SCHEDULE
OF INSTAGRAM BEEFS AND GAINING MUSCLE TO PORTRAY SUPERHEROES
TO PLAY PICKLEBALL TONIGHT.
THEY'RE PLAYING FOR PRIDE, FOR HONOR,
AND FOR THE RIGHT TO HOIST THE COVETED COLBERT CUP.
♪♪
NOW, SOME OF YOU MAY BE THINKING,
STEVE, WHAT IS PICKLEBALL?
WELL, IMAGINE TENNIS AND BADMINTON
WERE IN A LOVING, COMMITTED RELATIONSHIP,
BUT IT HAD BEEN A FEW YEARS AND THE SPARK WAS GONE.
SO THEY DECIDED TO INVITE PING-PONG
INTO THE MIX ONE NIGHT.
IT WAS BADMINTON'S IDEA, AND TENNIS WAS LIKE,
"OKAY, IF IT MAKES YOU HAPPY,
I JUST HOPE THIS DOESN'T GET WEIRD."
BUT WEIRD GET IT DID.
AND NINE MONTHS LATER, THEY HAD A BEAUTIFUL,
BOUNCING BABY SPORT WITH A SMALLER COURT,
A WIFFLE BALL AND WOODEN PADDLES.
TONIGHT, I'VE GOT A BIRD'S-EYE VIEW OF THE ACTION
FROM MY LUXURIOUS PERGOLA.
BUT CLOSER TO THE ACTION AND DEFINITELY FURTHER AWAY
FROM THE AIR CONDITIONING ARE TODAY'S "PICKLED" COMMENTATORS,
LEGENDARY SPORTS ANALYST BILL RAFTERY
AND OUR VERY OWN CHAMPION, CARI CHAMPION.
THEY'RE HERE TO GIVE YOU THE PLAY BY PLAY OF
HOW WE'LL PLAY TODAY. BILL, CARI?
-THANKS, STEVE.
FOR STARTERS, THE PICKLEBALL COURT
IS SMALLER THAN A TENNIS COURT, JUST 44 FEET BY 20 FEET.
EACH SIDE IS DIVIDED INTO THREE ZONES,
TWO SERVICE COURTS AND AN ON VOLLEY ZONE CALLED THE KITCHEN.
EACH POINT BEGINS WITH AN UNDERHAND
SERVE TO THE OPPOSING CORNER,
WHICH MUST CLEAR THE NET AND THE KITCHEN.
-THEN BOTH TEAMS MUST LET THE BALL BOUNCE IN THEIR COURT
BEFORE RETURNING IT FOR A VOLLEY.
BUT BE CAREFUL: NO IN-THE-AIR VOLLEYS
CAN BE HIT WHILE STANDING IN THE KITCHEN.
EACH TEAM MEMBER WILL SERVE
BEFORE THE SERVE MOVES ON TO THE OTHER TEAM.
NOW, KEEP IN MIND, POINTS ARE SCORED ONLY BY THE SERVING TEAM.
A POINT IS WON BY EITHER HITTING A WINNER
OR THE OPPOSING TEAM HITS THE NET,
A SHOT OUTSIDE THE LINE, OR IF THE BALL BOUNCES TWICE.
THE TEAM WHO FIRST GETS TO 11 POINTS WINS THE GAME.
THINGS ARE GOING TO GET HEATED
AS WE WATCH WINNERS MOVE ON AND LOSERS MOVE OUT
IN TODAY'S BRACKET STYLE DOUBLES TOURNAMENT.
ALSO, EACH TEAM WILL BE ALLOTTED ONE TIMEOUT
FOR WHATEVER THEY MAY NEED:
HYDRATION, CALLS TO A PUBLICIST,
OR A CHANCE TO UNWIND AND RECHARGE
WITH A REFRESHINGLY COLD AND CRUNCHY CLAUSSEN PICKLE.
-A MOMENT THEY'LL SURELY WANT TO RELISH. STEVE?
-NOW LET'S SAY HI TO OUR SIDELINE REPORTER,
THE HARDEST WORKING MEMBER OF OUR "PICKLED" CREW,
STRANDED OUT THERE ALL ALONE IN THE BLAZING CALIFORNIA SUN,
MY DEAR FRIEND AND SoulCycle EMERGENCY CONTACT
JOHN MICHAEL HIGGINS.
WHAT'S HAPPENING BEHIND THE SCENES,
JOHN MICHAEL HIGGINS? -OH, GOSH,
I'VE SEEN ALL KINDS OF THINGS.
EMMA WATSON IS GETTING IN THE ZONE.
SUGAR RAY LEONARD STRETCHING
THOSE GOLD-MEDAL-WINNING LIGAMENTS.
WILL FERRELL IS AGGRESSIVELY HYDRATING,
JUST TAKING THOSE ELECTROLYTES STRAIGHT TO HIS FACE.
-I GOT DOWN THE WRONG PIPE.
-HE REALLY WANTS THIS, STEVE.
-THANK YOU, MY FRIEND. -STEVE, CAN I GET A DRINK?
-I SAID THANK YOU, MY FRIEND.
BUT BEFORE WE GET TO OUR FIRST MATCH,
THE REASON WE'RE ALL HERE IS TO SUPPORT COMIC RELIEF.
AND WE WOULD LOVE YOU TO GO TO COMICRELIEF.ORG
AND DONATE DURING THE SHOW
BECAUSE ALL THE MONEY YOU GIVE WILL GO TOWARD KEEPING KIDS
AND FAMILIES SAFE HERE IN THE U.S. AND AROUND THE WORLD,
WHETHER THAT'S KIDS WHO NEED A PLACE TO CALL HOME
OR KIDS IN DANGER WHEN DISASTER HITS.
JUST USE THE PHONE THAT IS PROBABLY ALREADY IN YOUR HAND
AND GO TO COMICRELIEF.ORG AND GIVE.
-AND NOW, LADIES AND GENTLEMEN,
PLEASE RISE FOR THE SINGING OF OUR NATIONAL ANTHEM.
OUR HOST, TRIPLE THREAT STEPHEN COLBERT,
WILL BE ACCOMPANIED BY GRAMMY AWARD WINNING
SINGER AND SONGWRITER,
A CITIZEN OF BOTH THE DANGER ZONE
AND POOH CORNER,
MR. KENNY LOGGINS.

SAY HER NAME, SAY HER NAME,
IT'S KELLY ROWLAND!
HE WON AN EMMY FOR GETTING USED AND ABUSED
BY THE GUEST OF A LUXURY RESORT ON HBO'S "THE WHITE LOTUS,"
NOW HE'S GOING TO FACE THE BACKHANDS OF A NEW CROP
OF GLAMOROUS ECCENTRICS, IT'S MURRAY BARTLETT!
LET'S GIVE IT UP FOR DINK FLOYD!
ORIGINALLY FROM MISSISSIPPI,
SHE'S AN EMMY AND GRAMMY NOMINATED ACTOR,

IT'S TIG NOTARO!
THIS 6'3" COMEDIC GENIUS
STARS WITH A 6'2" RYAN REYNOLDS
AND THE NEW MOVIE "SPIRITED."
IN IT'S WILL FERRELL!
TOGETHER, THEY ARE PARTY TIL YOU CUKE.
-I AM VERY EXCITED.
-I AM VERY HOT -- AND EXCITED TOO.
-YOU KNOW WHY WE'RE FEELING GOOD?
IT'S CURRENTLY 94 DEGREES HERE AT THOUSAND OAKS.
IT FEELS LIKE 107.
-FEELS LIKE THIS SHOULD HAVE BEEN INDOORS.
-ON MY WEATHER APP, IT ALSO SAID THREAT OF COYOTE ATTACK.
SO THAT WOULD BE A WORST CASE,
IF A BAND OF COYOTES CAME
AND ATTACKED EVERYONE AS THEY WATCHED PICKLEBALL.
-WE'RE MOMENTS AWAY FROM THE FIRST-EVER POINT
AT THE FIRST-EVER CELEBRITY PICKLEBALL TOURNAMENT.
HISTORY IN THE MAKING.
KELLY ROWLAND, MURRAY BARTLETT,
TIG NOTARO, WILL FERRELL.
THE ENERGY HERE IS AS ELECTRIC AS THEIR CARS.
LET'S GO TO CENTER COURT.
-THIS IS ABOUT CELEBRITY. THIS IS ALL ABOUT CELEBRITY.
-WILL FERRELL ABOUT TO FACE HIS ACHILLES HEEL,
HIS ACHILLES TENDON.
-THANKS, EVERYBODY. THANKS FOR COMING OUT.
THANKS, YOU GUYS. THANK YOU.
-HERE WE GO.
WILL FERRELL SERVING TO KELLY ROWLAND.
WE'RE UNDERWAY.
-SERVICE IS GOOD -- OH, BUT KELLY MISSES.
-A SMOKER.
-BILL, I'M CHALKING THAT UP TO THE PRESSURE
OF PLAYING THE VERY FIRST MATCH.
SHE IS THEKELLY ROWLAND, SO...
-102.
-AND IT'S FERRELL TO BARTLETT, TO NOTARO,
BACK TO BARTLETT.
TIG TO KELLY.
AND THAT ONE'S OUT.
-WILL AND TIG OFF TO A QUICK TWO POINT LEAD.
-TIG, THAT'S A LOT OF POWER IN A LITTLE PACKAGE.
-2 -- 0-2. -FERRELL DROPS IT IN.
NOW, LOOK AT WILL AT THE KITCHEN LINE.
-OH! -IT'S JUST TOO MUCH, FOLKS,
FOR BARTLETT TO RETURN! -GET OVER THERE.
-ALRIGHT. -COMING UP TO THAT KITCHEN LINE
PUTS A LITTLE PRESSURE ON THE OPPONENT.
-GOT IT. -THAT WAS OUT.
-LOOK AT THIS, WILL FERRELL CALLING HIS TEAMMATE'S BALL OUT.
SEEMS TO BE SOME CONFUSION.
WELL, THIS IS EXACTLY WHY WE INSTALLED THE LINE CAM.
AND HE'S RIGHT.
TREMENDOUS VISION AND INTEGRITY FROM WILL FERRELL.
-ALRIGHT. 0-3-1.
-GOT IT.
-WAY TO GO, WILL.
-LOOK AT THIS.
-OH!
-HE'S IN THE ATTACK MODE.
-FERRELL DID NOT COME TO PLAY.
HE CAME TO PLAY.
-HE'S LEAVING IT ALL OUT THERE, STEVE.
-I HOPE HE'S STILL GOT SOME LEFT FOR THE NEXT ROUND
BECAUSE IT'S LOOKING GOOD FOR PARTY TIL YOU CUKE.
-ALRIGHT, ALRIGHT! SILENCE IT OUT OVER THERE!
[ CHEERING AND APPLAUSE ]
-YOU RECOGNIZE THOSE TROUSERS ON WILL FERRELL, STEVE?
-THEY ARE FROM THE MOVIE "SEMI-PRO."
-FOOT FAULT.
-I DIDN'T SEE IT. -LOOK -- WELL, SENSE IT.
-WE SHOULDN'T HAVE A KITCHEN ON THE COURT.
-SO MUCH PASSION, SO MUCH EMOTION,
NOT A LOT OF UNDERSTANDING OF THE RULES.
JOIN US AFTER THE BREAK FOR THE EPIC CONCLUSION
OF THE FIRST QUARTERFINAL MATCH.

-WELCOME BACK, EVERYBODY, TO "PICKLED."
OUR FIRST QUARTERFINAL MATCH HAS BEEN FULL OF DASHES,
SMASHES, AND NO DOUBT A FEW RASHES.
THERE IS A DECENT CHANCE OF CHAFING OUT THERE.
LET'S GET BACK TO THE ACTION.
SCORE'S 5-4, WILL FERRELL AND TIG NOTARO
CLINGING TO A ONE-POINT ADVANTAGE
OVER KELLY ROWLAND AND MURRAY BARTLETT.
FERRELL SERVING.
-GOT IT.
-A NIFTY LITTLE WINNER FROM NOTARO --
OH, AND THEN A RACKET POINT!
SHE'S PUTTING ROWLAND AND BARTLETT ON NOTICE.
LET'S TAKE ANOTHER LOOK AT THAT, BILL.
HERE'S THE WINNER.
AND HERE'S THE POINT.
-ROWLAND, FAMOUSLY POLITE.
I WOULDN'T SAY SHE'S RATTLED, BUT DEFINITELY OFFENDED.
SHE MIGHT FORGIVE, BUT THERE WILL BE NO FORGETTING.
-OKAY. -6-4 IN FAVOR OF
FERRELL AND NOTARO.
-THAT WAS CUTE.
-OH, KELLY. -POINT.
-THAT WAS A NICE RETURN.
-NOW YOU'RE STARTING TO WAKE UP. -7-4, MOMENTUM WITH
FERRELL AND NOTARO -- BUT LOOK AT THIS!
ROWLAND NOT ROLLING OVER -- A SALUTE, A SHIMMY.
-OKAY. -FERRELL CLEARLY TAKING NOTICE
OF THE CHILD OF DESTINY. OOH. BUT THE FOOTWORK,
NOT FANCY ENOUGH FOR THE RETURN.
-YOU SHOULDN'T HAVE DONE ALL THAT [BLEEP], DID YOU PLAN THAT?
-NOPE!
-OKAY, HERE WE GO. 8-4, TWO.
-A NICE LITTLE RALLY DEVELOPING.
TIG COMING UP TO THE LINE.
AND, OOH, UNFORCED ERROR.
SERVICE GOING BACK TO ROWLAND AND BARTLETT.
-DON'T WORRY, GUYS. SWEATSHIRTS WILL BE COMING OUT SOON.
-FERRELL PANDERING TO THE CROWD, CARI.
WHAT A SMART MOVE.
-ANOTHER GREAT RALLY HERE. -I GOT IT.
-GOT IT?
-POINT!
-ANOTHER UNFORCED ERROR BY NOTARO.
-UNFORCED ERROR, OF COURSE,
ONE OF THE BEST STEVEN SEAGAL FILMS.
HE'S A FORMER NAVY SEAL TURNED TENNIS PRO
WHO HAS TO SIMULTANEOUSLY SAVE AND WIN WIMBLEDON.
STREAMING ON PARAMOUNT PLUS.
-NICE.
-OOH, LOOK AT THIS RALLY. IN THE KITCHEN!
RIGHT IN. STAY WITH IT, KELLY. COME ON!
-OH! NICE!
-ROWLAND SHOWING SOME EMOTION THERE,
THROWING THE BALL DIRECTLY AT TIG'S BACK.
BUT THERE'S THAT WINNING SMILE.
IS IT ENOUGH TO WIN THIS MATCH? WE'LL SOON FIND OUT.
BUT OVER ON THE PRACTICE COURT, JUNE DIANE RAPHAEL
IS RUNNING HER HUSBAND, PAUL SCHEER, AROUND THE COURT.
RAPHAEL SERVING SOME SERIOUS LOOKS THERE.
MEANWHILE, JAIME CAMIL AND AISHA TYLER
ARE GETTING DIALED IN. -[BLEEP]

-DON'T -- DON'T DO THAT.
-YEAH, DON'T DO THAT. -I TRIPPED -- I SLIPPED.
DON'T -- BUT DON'T DO WHAT YOU'RE DOING EITHER.
-BUT HE SHOULDN'T BE DOING THAT.
-YES!
-ANOTHER GREAT RALLY. WHO WILL IT BE?
-THE MAGIC OF PICKLEBALL!
-FERRELL IS LOVING IT.
OH! -LOOK AT MURRAY WITH A SPIN!
-OH, BUT HITS IT OUT. ROWLAND WITH A TWIRL.
GOT TO WONDER IF FARRELL'S LOVE FOR THE GAME DISTRACTED HIM.
LET'S TAKE ANOTHER LOOK.
[ SLOW-MOTION ] -THE MAGIC OF PICKLEBALL!
-YEAH, HE'S LOVING IT SO MUCH,
HE JUST WATCHED THAT POINT GET AWAY FROM HIM.
COSTLY. -I DON'T MEAN THIS
IN A MEAN WAY, BUT THAT POINT WAS YOUR FAULT.
-BARTLETT IS NOW SERVING TO TIE IT UP.
-GOT IT. -YEP.
-YEAH. -DOWN THE LINE.
BUT, OOH, WAS IT IN?
-LET'S TAKE A LOOK AT THE LINE CAM.
YEP. THE JAR DOES NOT LIE.
DOESN'T KNOW HOW TO. THAT WAS IT.
-OUT. -IT WAS TOO MUCH FOR ROWLAND.

-GREAT, GREAT. -YOU READY?
-HERE WE GO.
NICE.
-YOU GOT IT? -GOT IT.
-WE GOT SOME NICE PLAY HERE.
-AND A SLAM FROM BARTLETT.
BUT NOTARY RECOVERS. AND AGAIN, BUT --
-OOH! -SORRY, I'M SORRY.
-WHAT WAS THAT? -RIGHT INTO THE PICKLES
OF BELOVED ICON WILL FERRELL, CARI.
-LET'S TAKE A CLOSER LOOK. WOW. TOUGH TO SEE.
AND -- UH-OH, LOOKS LIKE FERRELL'S
A LITTLE ANGRY THERE. YOU DON'T WANT THAT.
COULD BE TROUBLE FOR MURRAY AND KELLY.
-DON'T APOLOGIZE. DO NOT APOLOGIZE.
-OKAY. -SORRY.
-NO, I KNOW -- NOW I KNOW WHAT'S HAPPENING NOW.
-WHAT ARE YOU DOING? -NOW I KNOW.
-ALRIGHT. -I'VE GOT SOME ISSUES.

-KELLY ROWLAND AND MURRAY BARTLETT MOVE OUT.
WILL FERRELL AND TIG MOVE ON TO THE SEMIS.
THEY'RE IN THE OOFOS RECOVERY LOUNGE

-THANK YOU, CARI, I'M HERE WITH THIS INCREDIBLE TEAM.
THEY PUT US THROUGH THE WRINGER IN THIS MATCH.
I'M TELLING YOU, ELECTRIFYING PICKLEBALL.
THOSE TWO WORDS HAVE NEVER BEEN PUT TOGETHER.
TIG, WHAT WAS GOING ON OUT THERE?
-WELL, BASICALLY WHAT WE DID WAS WE GOT IN THERE,
WE JUST PLAYED OUR BEST. WE JUST STAY FOCUSED.
-WONDERFULLY SAID, TIG. I'VE HEARD THAT BEFORE.
BUT WHAT ABOUT YOU, WILL?
ARE YOU, UH -- ARE YOU A BETTER PICKLEBALL PLAYER
THAN WHEN YOU STARTED AFTER THAT MATCH?
-I THINK MOST DEFINITELY.
AND I'M MOST PROUD OF MY PARTNER, TIG,
BECAUSE NO ONE -- NO ONE IN THE STADIUM --
-THANKS, WILL. -NO ONE WITHIN 100 MILES' RADIUS
OF THIS -- OF THIS PLACE. THOUGHT SHE COULD DO IT.
-THANKS, WILL. -AND SHE DID IT.
-JUST LIKE I SAID, I JUST GOT IN THERE.
JUST STAY FOCUSED AND JUST, YOU KNOW,
KEPT MY EYE ON THE BALL.
-THAT'S A -- IT WAS BEAUTIFULLY SAID.
-JOHN MICHAEL HIGGINS, CAN YOU HEAR ME?
-YES, SIR. -I'VE GOT A QUESTION FOR WILL.
WILL, YOU'RE ALL HEART WHEN YOU'RE OUT THERE.
YOU PUT IT ALL OUT ON YOUR SLEEVE.
WHAT OTHER ORGANS WERE YOU TODAY?
-I WAS A LITTLE BIT, UH, I WAS A LITTLE BIT GALLBLADDER,
A LITTLE BIT KIDNEY.
I WAS A LITTLE BIT COCCYX, WHICH IS...
WHICH IS NOT AN ORGAN.
-I DO NOT BELIEVE WE CAN SAY COCCYX --
-WELL -- -ON CBS.
-WE'RE GOING TO SAY IT.
THIS IS WHY THIS IS A REVOLUTIONARY SHOW FOR CBS.
-THANK YOU, GUYS. HEY, EVERYBODY,
I'M HERE WITH MURRAY AND KELLY.
THEY JUST CAME OFF A HEARTBREAK OF A LOSS.
IF YOU COULD CHANGE ANYTHING
ABOUT HOW YOU PLAYED TODAY,
WOULD IT BE EVERYTHING?
-NO.
-WHAT WOULD YOU CHANGE IF YOU COULD?
-THOSE TWO POINTS I LET... [ LAUGHS ]
-YOU GOT ANGRY, THE EMOTIONS GOT THE BEST OF YOU OUT THERE.
TALK TO ME ABOUT THAT MOMENT, LET'S ROLL THAT TAPE.
LET'S ROLL THAT TAPE BACK AND TAKE A LOOK AT --
SO, THERE YOU ARE. YOU THREW A BALL AT TIG
WHEN HER BACK WAS TURNED.
-BUT I SAW YOU, YOU KNOW, PURPOSEFULLY AIM IT NOT AT TIG.
-NO, I AIMED IT AT TIG. -OH, OKAY.
ALRIGHT. I WAS TRYING TO SAVE YOU THERE.
-NO, IT'S ALRIGHT. I THINK SHE KNEW.
-WHAT DID YOUR OPPONENTS HAVE THAT YOU DIDN'T?
OTHER THAN MORE POINTS AT THE END.
-SKILL. -SKILL?
WE'RE GIVING EVERYBODY HERE WHO PLAYS AND LOSES
AN OPPORTUNITY TO DO A MONOLOGUE
SO THEY CAN BE SUBMITTED FOR OUTSTANDING ACHIEVEMENT
AS A GUEST PERFORMER IN A LIVE SPECIAL.
MURRAY BARTLETT IS NOW GOING FOR HIS LAST CHANCE EMMY

-44 CENTS -- THAT'S HOW MUCH A POSTCARD STAMP IS.
44 CENTS, DAD.
EVERY DAY I WOULD RUN TO THAT DANG MAILBOX
AS FAST AS I COULD.
NOTHING COULD STOP ME,
NOT EVEN THAT HOT AUSTRALIAN SUN.
I KEPT THINKING MAYBE THERE'D BE A POSTCARD FROM DAD,
FROM SOME FANCY PLACE --
HONG KONG, SAUSALITO,
THE MOON.
BUT THERE NEVER WAS.
SCREW YOU, DAD.
THERE WAS NEVER ANY MAIL AT ALL!
COME TO THINK OF IT,
THAT MIGHT NOT HAVE EVEN BEEN A MAILBOX.
THERE MIGHT HAVE BEEN A BIRDHOUSE.

IT TAKES A LOT OF PEOPLE TO PUT THIS TOGETHER.
LADIES AND GENTLEMEN, ALLOW ME TO INTRODUCE TO YOU
A VERY SPECIAL MEMBER OF THE "PICKLED" FAMILY,
OUR BELOVED MASCOT, HALF-SOUR HARVEY.
HOW ARE YOU DOING, HARV?
MOST MASCOTS ARE HAPPY-GO-LUCKY,
JUMPING UP AND DOWN, PUMPING UP THE CROWD.
BUT, TRUTH BE TOLD, HARVEY IS GOING THROUGH SOME STUFF
AT THE MOMENT -- IT'S PRETTY MUCH PUBLIC KNOWLEDGE
THAT HARVEY'S WIFE, JANET,
HAS MADE THEIR TEMPORARY SEPARATION
MORE OF A PERMANENT SITUATION.
SHE SIGNED A LEASE.
SHE'S GONE ON TWO DATES WITH A ZUCCHINI.
IT'S... IT'S A MESS.
HARVEY, WHEN YOU'RE READY TO TALK,
WE'RE READY TO LISTEN.
NOW LET'S GET READY TO PICKLE.
CARI, BILL, CAN YOU TELL US A LITTLE BIT MORE
ABOUT THE MATCH WE'RE ABOUT TO SEE?
-YOU KNOW HER FROM "GRACE AND FRANKIE,"

TOGETHER, THEY PRODUCE TV SHOWS, PODCASTS, AND EVEN CHILDREN.
BUT CAN THEY PRODUCE PICKLEBALL POINTS?

A.K.A. THE PADDLE-SNAKES!
-YOU KNOW HIM FROM HIS WORK ON "JANE THE VIRGIN"
AND NETFLIX'S "EL REY."
HE'S HOPING TO BE THE REYOF THE SPORT --

SHE'S FAMOUS FOR ROLES IN "GHOST WHISPERER,"
"CRIMINAL MINDS," AND "ARCHER" --

TOGETHER THEY ARE TAKE THIS LOB AND SHOVE IT.
-AISHA AND JAIME'S RELATIONSHIP
MAY NOT BE AS LONG AS PAUL AND JUNE'S,
BUT THE SAME CANNOT BE SAID OF THEIR ARMS,
WITH A COMBINATION WINGSPAN OF OVER 150 INCHES.
THAT'S EQUIVALENT TO A MINI COOPER CONVERTIBLE.
IT'S A FUN RIDE.
I'D GO ON, BUT THEY ARE NOT A SPONSOR TONIGHT --
UNLIKE OOFOS. -SPEAKING OF OOFOS, STEVE,
LET'S GO DOWN TO THE OOFOS RECOVERY LOUNGE.

JOHN MICHAEL, TALK TO ME ABOUT THE VIBE DOWN THERE.
WELL, THANKS, CARI, I'M HERE IN THE OOFOS RECOVERY LOUNGE,
AND I HAVE TO TELL YOU,
THEY'VE REALLY OUTDONE THEMSELVES.
I MEAN, THIS IS REALLY NICE IN HERE --
AT FIRST GLANCE, IT MIGHT JUST SEEM LIKE A TENT,
BUT IF THIS IS A TENT, THIS IS, LIKE, THE NICEST TENT
I HAVE EVER BEEN.
AND I'M REALLY LOVING THIS LOUNGE
BECAUSE IT'S A HOT DAY;

BEFORE THIS MATCH.

-SO MY STRATEGY IS TO BE SUPER AGGRESSIVE,
TO GET UP TO THE NET
AND TO GO FOR EVERY BALL.
-AND MY STRATEGY IS TO LISTEN TO MY WIFE.
IF SHE TELLS ME TO DO SOMETHING, I'M GOING TO DO IT.
-APPARENTLY, JUNE IS PICKLEBALL AFICIONADO.
AND WHAT I'D LIKE TO SAY TO YOU IS IT'S GOT TO BE WONDERFUL
HAVING THAT MUCH FREE TIME ON YOUR HANDS.
-OOH! -AISHA, JAIME,
WE'RE ABOUT TO BEAT YOUR ASSES.
-SHOULD BE INTERESTING TO WATCH JUNE AND PAUL HERE.
THEY'VE BEEN MARRIED FOR 13 YEARS,
SO THEY'LL KNOW EACH OTHER'S STRENGTHS.
BUT EVERY MARRIAGE HAS SOME LINGERING RESENTMENTS

AND NEVER MIND, HE HIT THE NET. AND IT'S OVER.
-THE PADDLE-SNAKES, THEY CAME BACK FROM A DEFICIT
TO WIN IT ALL.
- THAT WAS BECAUSE OF YOU! -OH, STOP IT!
-YEAH!
-OH, RUBBING IT IN! -AN AMAZING MATCH,
SORRY TO SEE AISHA AND JAIME GO,
BUT WHAT A GREAT MOMENT FOR JUNE AND PAUL,
FOR THEIR MARRIAGE, FOR THEIR BRAND.
-THEY ARE IN THE OOFOS RECOVERY LOUNGE,
SO LET'S CHECK IN.

NOW, YOU COMING FROM WAY BEHIND AND YOU JUST PULLED IT
RIGHT OUT AT THE END. WHAT HAPPENED?
-WELL, WE HAD AN AMAZING SERVER. -YEAH.
-JUNE REALLY LED US TO VICTORY.
SHE NEVER LET THE BALL OUT OF HER SIGHT. SHE'S AMAZING.
-LISTEN, HAS YOUR MARRIAGE
IMPROVED SINCE YOU STARTED THE GAME?
-YOU KNOW, IT DEFINITELY HAS KEPT ME IN LINE.
I THINK IT'S MADE ME A BETTER ATHLETE
BECAUSE I DON'T WANT TO LET DOWN MY WIFE.
-YEAH, YOU DON'T. -NO. JESUS. OH, MY GOD.
-NO, YOU DON'T WANT TO. -I WILL NOT. I WILL NOT.
I WAS -- I'LL BE OKAY.
-ALRIGHT. THERE IT IS. AND MAYBE YOU CAN BRING
"COMING FROM BEHIND" BACK INTO YOUR MARRIAGE AS WELL.
-JOHN MICHAEL HIGGINS, I HAVE A QUESTION.
STEPHEN COLBERT HERE.
-HI, STEPHEN. -CAN YOU GUYS HEAR ME?
-YES. -YES, QUITE WELL.
-YOU LOOK FANTASTIC, FIRST OF ALL --
HOW MUCH DID STYLE PLAY INTO THIS?
-YOU KNOW, FOR ME, STYLE IS OVER EVERYTHING.
NOT MANY PEOPLE PLAY IN A SWEATER IN 110 DEGREE HEAT.
BUT, YOU KNOW, IT ACTUALLY IMPROVES MY GAME
BECAUSE I FEEL LIKE I'M SWIMMING
AND PLAYING PICKLEBALL AT THE SAME TIME.
-LET'S FOLLOW THAT THOUGHT, PAUL, WHERE IS MOST OF
THE SWEAT PUDDLING? -OH, IT'S PUDDLING IN PLACES
I DIDN'T EVEN KNOW HAD PUDDLE ABILITY.
-NOOKS AND CRANNIES. -SO BASICALLY YOU'RE SAYING
THAT YOUR NETHER REGIONS ARE LIKE AN ENGLISH MUFFIN
FILLING UP WITH WARM MELTED BUTTER.
-AND THAT'S THE PADDLE-SNAKES IN A SINGLE SENTENCE, STEVE.

VOLLEY RANGERS GET THE POINT.

-CARI, BILL, ARE YOU SEEING WHAT I'M SEEING?
EMMA'S GOT A HELL OF AN EYE. SHE LETS THAT BALL PLAY
ALL THE WAY OUT TO SEE WHETHER IT'S FAIR PLAY
OR WHETHER IT'S GOING TO GO OUTSIDE.

HAS WORKED AT THIS WITH INDIVIDUAL INSTRUCTION.

-THAT'S OUT.

-THAT IS IMPRESSIVE, TERRIFIC TECHNIQUE.

BY OUR COMMENTATORS BILL RAFTERY AND CARI CHAMPION.
GUYS, WE ALL KNOW CLAUSSEN PICKLES ARE COLD AND CRUNCHY.
COULD YOU SAY THE SAME ABOUT SOME OF THE PLAY WE SAW TODAY?
I TELL YOU, SUGAR RAY'S OPPONENTS ARE IN A PICKLE.
HE HAS BEEN STONE COLD. HE IS GOING TO THE SEMIS.
THAT'S GOT TO BE SOMETHING TO BE PROUD OF.
-HE'S GOING TO BE VERY GOOD, NO QUESTION ABOUT IT.
I'M SURE HE'S A NEOPHYTE AT THIS GAME.
AND THAT'S WHAT IMPRESSED ME THE MOST --
LOT OF THESE PEOPLE ARE FIRST TIME STARTERS
AND DISPLAYED EXTRAORDINARY ABILITY.
-SUGAR RAY AND EMMA SHUT OUT DANIEL DAE KIM AND LUIS GUZMAN.
I'D NEVER SEEN ANYTHING LIKE THAT IN PICKLE.
-THUS FAR, EMMA IS THE BEST PLAYER IN THE COMPETITION.
-REALLY IMPRESSIVE. -SHE'S ON THE SHORTLIST FOR MVP,
THAT'S FOR SURE. -THEY WENT AFTER LUIS BECAUSE
HE DIDN'T COME TOWARDS THE KITCHEN, THEY'RE VERY SMART.
I JUST LOVE HER ATTITUDE. WHAT A COMPETITOR.
-JUNE DIANE AND PAUL'S MARRIAGE SEEMS TO BE AN ADVANTAGE SO FAR.

HAVING A GREAT TIME. -CARI, BILL,
THANKS FOR YOUR INSIGHT. AND NOW TO DELIVER
CLAUSSEN'S ANNUAL STATE OF THE PICKLE ADDRESS,
THE ANCHOR OF "CBS NEWS PRIME TIME,"
JOHN DICKERSON.
-PICKLEBALL'S JOURNEY BEGAN IN THE TUMULTUOUS YEAR 1965.
THE TIMES, THEY WERE A-CHANGIN'.
IT WAS ONLY A MATTER OF TIME
BEFORE THOSE TIMES A-CHANGED
THE WAY WE PLAYED RACKET SPORTS.
ONE WEEKEND IN THE SUMMER OF '65,
FUTURE CONGRESSMAN JOEL PRITCHARD WAS TRAPPED ON
A FAMILY VACATION ON BAINBRIDGE ISLAND, WASHINGTON,
WITH SEVERAL BORED CHILDREN,
TWO-PING PONG PADDLES, ONE WIFFLE BALL,
AND A BADMINTON NET.
THEN CONGRESSMAN PRITCHARD DARED DO
WHAT NO ONE HAD DARED DO BEFORE.
HE LOWERED IT.
AND PICKLEBALL WAS BORN.
THE '60s MAY HAVE COME TO AN END,
BUT PICKLEBALL'S ROCKET RIDE HAS JUST BEGUN.
RACKET SPORTS SCIENTISTS CALCULATE THAT IN THE LAST
TWO YEARS, THE SPORT HAS GROWN BY 40%.
THERE ARE NOW 4.8 MILLION PLAYERS.
PICKLEBALL IS BRINGING HEALTH AND HAPPINESS
TO COUNTLESS AMERICANS --
UNLESS YOU CAN COUNT TO 4.8 MILLION.
CLEARLY PICKLEBALL HAS BECOME A NATIONAL OBSESSION.
BUT EVERY OBSESSION HAS A DARK SIDE.
AS THE HORDES OF PICKERS GROW THEIR INSATIABLE THIRST
FOR COURT SPACE DEVOURS GYMS, TENNIS COURTS.
AND, IN NEW YORK CITY,
PICKLEBALLERS ARE SETTING UP UNAUTHORIZED COURTS
IN PUBLIC PARKS AND PLAYGROUNDS,
AND FIGHTS ARE ERUPTING.
YES, VIOLENCE ON THE PLAYGROUND AND SADLY,
NOT THE COOL DANCING KIND.
ONE CRITIC LABELED PICKLERS
"THE LANTERN FLIES OF THE SPORTS WORLD" --
AN APT COMPARISON, BECAUSE, LIKE PICKLEBALL,
THEY'RE BOTH INVASIVE,
AND, UNTIL RECENTLY,
I HAD NO IDEA EITHER ONE EXISTED.
BUT PADDLE CRIME ISN'T THE ONLY DANGER LURKING ON THE COURT.
SO ARE INJURIES -- 19,000 OF THEM A YEAR.
THE CAUSE, ACCORDING TO ONE EXPERT --
"MOST OF IT IS FROM TRIPPING."
THE SPORT IS LURING UNSUSPECTING AMERICANS INTO AN ACTIVITY
THEY'RE NOT READY FOR:
MOVEMENT.
SO WITHER NOW PICKLEBALL?
HARMLESS ACTIVITY, SURGING SPORT,
OR MENACE TO SOCIETY?
PERSONALLY, AFTER SEEING THESE CELEBRITIES PLAY THIS SPORT
FOR THE BETTER PART OF AN AFTERNOON,
I THINK PICKLEBALL CAN BE A FORCE FOR HEALING
IN THE RIGHT HANDS --
AND SOMETIMES IN THE LEFT.
BACK TO YOU, STEVE.
-THANKS, JOHN.
COMING UP: JUNE, PAUL; WILL, TIG --
PICKLEBALL MAY BE LOW IMPACT,
BUT IT IS DEFINITELY HIGH STAKES.
WHEN WE COME BACK, THE "PICKLED" SEMIFINALS GET UNDERWAY.
