Jimmy Kimmel is on vacation for a few weeks, and sitting in the big chair from Monday to Thursday this week is the man behind Cassian Andor, Diego Luna who opened the show with a monologue covering a number of topics including his love of Los Angeles, his early career, immigration issues, Andor and much more besides.
Diego steps in as our first guest host of the summer and talks about how much Los Angeles means to him, the very important immigration issues happening here and across the United States right now, the authoritarian policies of Donald Trump, his son being born in LA, finding community here, the importance of immigrants and the amazing things they bring to America, how unfair it is that they are living in fear, the violence and separating of families being unacceptable, and he encourages everyone to call their representatives and let them know how they feel about it, and support organizations like Public Counsel and Kids in Need of Defense.
Diego also welcomed some very special guests, kicking off with his Andor co-star Adria Arjona.
Adria was also joined by mega Star Wars fan Patton Oswalt (husband of the voice of Barriss Offee, Meredith Salenger)
