-Let's talk about the book.
When did you write this,
and what inspired you to write this?
-I wrote this --
So, after season four edit wrapped,
I was in a place where I was feeling really lost.
I work kind of constantly, which I think you can relate to,
and I was really, really heartbroken.
I'd never fallen in love before, and I did,
and then I was completely heartbroken.
And we wrapped season four,
and I had to be in L.A. in three weeks,
and I was like, "I got to just get out.
I got to get out of my life."
And so, I drove from here to L.A.
in my Mini Cooper that I hardly ever drove here.
-Wow. And I got to say, because I once --
I had a Mini Cooper once. I owned one.
[ Laughter ]
I rented one for like a month or something like that.
[ Laughter ]
They're very small.
-But mine was, like, the four-door.
-I was like this. -That is so funny.
-"I'm cool, right?" I'm like, "Is this working?"
Like it's convertible, dudes. Like, "Yeah, we don't care."
-It actually isn't like -- -It's frightening.
-When you think about road trip, you're not like, "Mini Cooper!"
But I -- It fit me. I fit in it.
-Yeah, of course. -Yeah.
Yeah, and I wanted to go by myself
and just kind of get to have the space
to feel all the things.
-That's good to go on a little road trip, and just get --
-Yeah. -Did you listen to any music?
-I listened to so much music.
So a lot of it is in --
So, there are all these illustrations.
My previous books have only been illustrations,
and this is way more writing, and there's still illustrations,
but most of it is my soundtrack and podcast,
so albums, podcasts, stuff I bought, stuff I ate.
-Sharon Jones & The Dap-Kings right there.
-Yep. -Yeah, we love that.
[ Cheers and applause ]
There's also a great story in here
about your big lie that you told,
and I hate to bring it up, because this is --
Look how upset you're getting.
This is something that's haunted you.
-You mean the --
[ Laughter ]
-It really made me laugh because it's not that big of a deal.
-Are you talking about Elijah Wood?
-Yes, of course I am.
Why would you even bring -- -I don't know.
-Why did it bother you so much?
-So part -- One of the essays
are these minor regrets,
because when you're driving by yourself
for like eight hours a day, your mind goes.
And so, a lot of the book is, like, these lists
of certain, like, categories that I was thinking about.
One is my minor regrets, and one of the things
was that I -- as a kid, I convinced all these people
that I -- these kids that I rode to school with on the bus
that Elijah Wood was my cousin.
[ Laughter ]
-What? -There's no endgame.
-But why Elijah Wood? -I had a crush on him.
I don't know, but I cut out his photo
from, like, a "Bop" magazine and put it in a picture frame,
and then -- This is, like --
I don't understand why I did this.
Then, put another picture of my actual cousin Corey
as, like, a young boy behind it.
'Cause you know how, like, parents put, like,
as the kid ages, they get older in the frame.
-Oh, my gosh! -Elaborate.
Elaborate.
And it worked, and, like, they bought it, and then, that's it.
This is, like -- I guess this is the end game here right now.
-Yeah. Exactly. -Yeah!
-No, no, wait! -He's not my cousin, fools!
-No -- Not -- That's not --
That's not the endgame -- "He's not my cousin, fools!"
-Now they know. -No, they always probably knew.
-I know. -But I just think it's great
that it bothered you so much that you created this lie.
-Well, you know, when you think back, you're like,
you think about these things, you're like,
"Why did I do that?" -Yeah, yeah.
Well, good, you explained yourself,
and now you can live guilt-free for the rest of your life.
-Finally, it's off my chest.
-Now you have to do press, obviously,
when these books come out, "I Might Regret This."
You said, "Great, I want to do a video,"
like a commercial promo,
and your publisher was like, "Yeah, no."
-Yeah, they were like, "Um, what?"
-Yeah, it's like, "We can't afford music and things."
No, and this is -- But you made one anyway.
-Yeah, so when I drove, you know,
I was a responsible driver,
and I had my phone in, like, a suction thing for the map.
-Of course. I know the thing, yeah.
-You know, I'm doing. And I just filmed it
'cause the phone was, like, right here,
and so I would film a lot of the road.
So I had this time lapse.
-Well I figured, what better place to show it
than "The Tonight Show." -There is no better place.
