  • 00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:01,650 Anyway, it's September.

  • And you know what that means.

  • It's time to start talking about Christmas

  • [APPLAUSE]

  • You're excited about that.

  • I'm so glad you're excited about that.

  • [LAUGHING]

  • To most people, it's stressful.

  • But for you, it's very exciting.

  • I bring it up because--

  • I don't know if you heard--

  • Amazon is announcing they are selling 7-foot Christmas trees.

  • Real Christmas trees.

  • Amazon.

  • [LAUGHING]

  • So years from now, families can reminisce

  • about the beautiful tradition where

  • they'd gather around together and say,

  • "Alexa, buy me a tree."

  • [LAUGHING]

  • It's always fun to go pick out a tree.

  • That's part of it.

  • Anyway, it got me thinking how much shopping has changed

  • over the years, because in the old days, there was like,

  • a general store.

  • It was just a general store.

  • And that's where you'd go to buy-- nothing specific.

  • You just, generally speaking, needed stuff.

  • And it was kind of awkward, because everything

  • was in that store.

  • So you'd go.

  • And I'm looking for some baby formula and moonshine

  • and a thong.

  • [LAUGHING]

  • So different stores popped up after that.

  • They had the five and dimes and Woolworth's.

  • And eventually, someone invented the mall.

  • I believe it was Jebediah Cinnabon.

  • [LAUGHING]

  • That was his name.

  • And for the first time, we had stores to choose from.

  • And seniors finally had a place to walk--

  • get their steps in.

  • So that was good.

  • [LAUGHING]

  • And, kids, you won't believe this.

  • But many years ago, the only way to buy something

  • was to go to a store.

  • [LAUGHING]

  • But then, Al Gore invented the internet.

  • And now, you can shop in the comfort of your own home.

  • And I'm not saying you should do it,

  • but it's fun getting packages that you

  • don't remember ordering.

  • [LAUGHING]

  • Who got me a telescope?

  • Oh, that was me.

  • I was drunk.

  • I don't know.

  • [LAUGHING]

  • But even online shopping is much, much too hard

  • for some people.

  • So now there are personal shoppers.

  • And here's what they do.

  • Well, you fill out a questionnaire,

  • then they send you stuff.

  • And you keep what you want, and you send back the rest.

  • And of course, if you're too lazy to shop,

  • you're probably too lazy to send it back.

  • So that's how they get you.

  • [LAUGHING]

  • Anyway, I thought I would like to be someone's

  • personal shopper today.

  • And I was just watching you before the show started in.

  • And I'm going to help somebody.

  • And not to say you need anything.

  • [LAUGHING]

  • It's not because of what you're wearing.

  • But, young lady, you, right here.

  • [APPLAUSE]

  • [MUSIC PLAYING]

  • Hello, hi.

  • Hello.

  • I like what you have on.

  • So it's got nothing to do with that.

  • Thank you.

  • Why are you backing away from me?

  • [LAUGHING]

  • Come stand here.

  • Hi.

  • Hi.

  • First of all, let me learn about you,

  • because you were just supposed to fill out a questionnaire.

  • [LAUGHING]

  • Let's just keep going back and forth like this

  • and then back like this while we talk.

  • It's like we're dancing almost.

  • Yes.

  • So what is your name?

  • I'm Dara [? Dextrace. ?]

  • Hi, Dara.

  • Hello.

  • [? Dextrace? ?]

  • Yes.

  • That's a good name.

  • Thanks.

  • And where do you live?

  • I live in California, northern California.

  • Uh-huh.

  • Yeah, don't get too specific.

  • [LAUGHING]

  • Yeah.

  • All right.

  • And then, OK, let me ask you some more questions.

  • You keep, here--

  • I'm sorry.

  • [LAUGHING]

  • What do you do for a living?

  • I was a teacher.

  • And I am a stay-at-home mom now.

  • Right, because you kept backing away.

  • That's why.

  • [LAUGHING]

  • [APPLAUSE]

  • Yeah.

  • Probably.

  • Yes.

  • So, OK, kids, today you are going to learn this.

  • And then but before you knew it, you were gone.

  • And you thought you were fired, but you actually

  • just walked away.

  • [LAUGHING]

  • All right, I'm going to ask you some things about shopping.

  • When you wear things, what do you

  • like to accentuate the most?

  • Your arms, your legs, your badonkadonk?

  • Well, lately, it's my waist.

  • Uh-huh.

  • High rise jeans, mom jeans, I guess,

  • are my favorite right now.

  • OK, great, OK.

  • Yeah.

  • And do you like clothes that are stylish?

  • Yes, I do.

  • OK, so you'd prefer stylish over not stylish.

  • Of course.

  • OK, would you prefer comfortable clothes

  • or not comfortable clothes?

  • Comfortable, comfortable.

  • Now, would you prefer something that's

  • reasonably priced or way too expensive?

  • Expensive-- just kidding, no.

  • Very affordable, right now.

  • Very affordable.

  • Yeah, OK, good.

  • All right, I have just the thing for you.

  • And you're going to really, really like this.

  • OK.

  • So I have a new line called EV1.

  • It stands for "everyone."

  • And it's available at Walmart.

  • And you're going to love my t-shirts.

  • There's cute t-shirts.

  • There's cute jeans.

  • There are the denims that you're talking about.

  • There we go.

  • And then also like, this jacket I'm wearing.

  • This is my jacket.

  • [APPLAUSE]

  • See?

  • It's gorgeous.

  • I love it.

  • OK, so they are everything.

  • They're stylish, comfortable, affordable, all that stuff.

  • And here's $1,000--

  • [APPLAUSE]

  • What?

  • Are you kidding?

  • --to go shopping.

  • Thank you.

  • Yeah.

  • Thank you so much.

  • You're welcome.

  • You're welcome.

  • I appreciate that.

  • All right, now you can back to your seat.

  • And I want everybody here to look stylish and be comfortable

  • as well.

  • So you're all getting a $150 gift card for Walmart.

  • You're welcome.

  • [APPLAUSE]

00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:01,650 Anyway, it's September.
