Show Rundown: December 6, 2016

Good Morning Everybody!

Howard congratulated his dear friend Jimmy Kimmel Tuesday morning on the news that he will be hosting the 2017 Oscar Awards — and this after Jimble Kimble was even so bold as to sneak in a “Hit ’em with the Hein” during his closing remarks while hosting the Emmys back in September.

“I’m very excited for him,” Howard said. “I know he’ll put a lot of energy and effort into it that will drive him crazy, but he’ll do a good job because he cares.”

Howard also told Robin he recently finished reading Bruce Springsteen’s book “Born to Run” and said the way it was written made him consider the idea of writing another book. He found Springsteen’s simple, yet insightful style very moving.

Additionally, after finishing “Born to Run,” Howard began reading a book about the Battle of Peleliu in World War II, based on a recommendation, as well as “The Life-Changing Magic of Tidying Up” by Marie Kondo.
