Fox News' host Greg Gutfeld to appear on Jimmy Fallon next week

Fox News late night host Greg Gutfeld will be a guest on Jimmy Fallon's "Tonight Show" next week, marking the libertarian-leaning on-air persona's first appearance on a traditional network late-night talk show. His debut guest appearance is scheduled for the Thursday, August 7 episode, NBC spokesperson Eve Kenny confirmed. Gutfeld is the host of Fox News' late-night "Gutfeld!" which debuted in April 2021 and has found success, averaging 3.29 million viewers, according to Late Nighter. The comedian and political commentator has long criticized late-night hosts like Seth Meyers and Jimmy Kimmel. But he expressed a soft spot for Fallon during a Thursday, July 31 episode of the Fox News conservative cable hit "The Five." "I'm psyched about it because Fallon comes across as a great guy, nice guy," Gutfeld told his co-hosts. "Also me going on his show shows him that he's not worried about upsetting his peers." He then recalled President Donald Trump's guest appearance on the "Tonight Show" ahead of the 2016 election, in which Fallon was scrutinized for "humanizing Trump" after tousling his hair for a comedic bit. "But it didn't come from anybody but the people on the left who wanted to teach all entertainers a lesson that if you dare show that Trump is a human, then you're toast," he added. "And so it's kind of nice that he's taken this risk." Fallon is among Trump's late-night foes Though its unclear what Fallon and Gutfeld will discuss during the episode, the talk show crossover comes after Trump's public squabble with several late night hosts following CBS' cancellation of the "The Late Show with Stephen Colbert." Trump celebrated the cancelation on Truth Social July 18 writing "I absolutely love that Colbert' got fired. His talent was even less than his ratings." Colbert addressed the post in his July 21 episode monologue saying: "How dare you, sir? Would an untalented man be able to compose the following satirical witticism? Go (expletive) yourself." The president later made a jab at Kimmel, insinuating that his show would be the next to end before taking aim at Fallon. "The word is, and it's a strong word at that, Jimmy Kimmel is NEXT to go in the untalented Late Night Sweepstakes and, shortly thereafter, (Jimmy) Fallon will be gone," Trump wrote on a July 22 Truth Social post. Fallon participated in the beef by zeroing in on Trump's former relationship with deceased convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein following reports that Attorney General Pam Bondi had reportedly told the president that he was named multiple times in the government's files. "Well, guys, the big story continues to be President Trump's handling of the Epstein files, and now newly uncovered footage shows that Jeffrey Epstein attended Trump's second wedding in 1993," Fallon said. "You had the bride, the groom, the groomer." Contributing: Anna Kaufman, USA TODAY This article originally appeared on USA TODAY: Fox News' host Greg Gutfeld to appear on Jimmy Fallon next week

Family of 5 Go Viral for $1K Grocery Hauls. Now They're Breaking Down the Reality of the Hefty Price Tag (Exclusive)

YouTubers Gabby and Christian Carlin talk with PEOPLE about grocery shopping for a family of fiveNEED TO KNOW Gabby and Christian Carlin share how they involve their three kids in their grocery shopping routine, from building the list to picking the snacks The YouTube creators break down their monthly grocery costs and why they don't stick to a strict budget The parents of three also open up about balancing content creation with real-life parentingFor YouTube creators Gabby and Christian Carlin, grocery shopping with their kiddos is less about going viral and more about getting through the list, just like any other family. Gabby and Christian Carlin — who go by @TheCarlins on YouTube — are parents to three children, Audrey, 5, Asher, 4, and Abbie, 2, often sharing their family adventures with a growing online audience. Among their most popular content is peeks at their monthly grocery shopping hauls, where viewers often weigh in with their guesses on the price tag. They admit to PEOPLE that buying groceries with three little ones in tow is no easy feat. 'When we do our groceries, we always come with a big list,' Christian tells PEOPLE exclusively. 'Whenever we run out of something, we tell Amazon, 'Alexa, add this to the list,' because if not, we're going to forget.' Naturally, with three kids, sticking to the list isn't always easy. The kids sometimes try to sneak items into the cart — 'Asher, he's like a little ninja,' Christian says of their 4-year-old son — so they make it a point to have them check in before adding anything. 'Sometimes it's something that we actually need,' Christian adds. 'They're so aware of what we need — they're so smart.' To avoid impulse buys, the Carlins say they usually head to the store after breakfast, which helps curb cravings and keep their purchases focused and shopping may be a routine task for the Carlins, but in their household, it's something the kids actually look forward to. 'We just tell 'em, 'Hey, we're going to go do groceries,' and they get super excited because they love going with us,' Gabby time, even staple items have become a source of excitement — from frozen mangoes and peaches to a recent family favorite: Sam's Club egg bites. 'It's like we're going to Starbucks at home,' she adds. 'We make them their little meal, and they eat it.' With a home full of activities — from dance and football to swim lessons and homeschooling — grocery trips also double as prep for the week ahead. The Carlins rely on easy, grab-and-go snacks like fruit, yogurt and veggie chips to keep their kids fueled throughout the go-to picks include easy handheld items like mandarins, veggie chips, yogurt drinks, Babybel cheese and string cheese snacks that travel well between sports, dance and days at the also keeps a small bag in the car stocked with diapers, wipes and other essentials. It's a system that comes in handy not just for the baby, but also for the older kids. 'Even for the bigger kids, the wipes are always needed,' she parents of three don't necessarily have a budget when it comes to groceries, and for good reason. Buying in bulk from Sam's Club allows them to stock up on essentials for the month, while weekly trips to Publix help replenish fresh produce, dairy and other household items as needed. 'Groceries are so expensive,' Gabby says. 'We just need to get what we need, because if we have everything at home, we have no reason to eat out [at a restaurant].' 'When we do go to Sam's Club, it literally lasts us a whole month,' Christian adds. 'People are like, 'Oh my gosh, between $500 and $600 at Sam's Club for a family of five,' but it lasts us a whole month.'Still, the Carlins make quick stops at Publix throughout the week — often for fresh produce, milk or other perishables — which adds to their overall grocery bill. 'So, five to seven hundred for Sam's Club, but on top of that, we go to Publix every week, so that's probably like $120 to $200 a week,' Christian says. All in all, the Carlins spend about $1,000 a month to keep the whole family well-fed and ready for their action-packed days. For the parents of three, what began as a fun, creative outlet while they were still in college has since evolved into a full-time career, one built on authenticity and lots of teamwork behind the scenes. Still, quality time with their family is the priority. 'We are a complete team in this house,' Christian says. 'Family time is the most important.' 'Every day looks so different, so we balance it out,' Gabby adds. Read the original article on People Solve the daily Crossword

What John le Carré Learned in Corfu

This is an edition of the Books Briefing, our editors' weekly guide to the best in books. Sign up for it here. Many of my most memorable reading experiences are conflated with incongruous settings. I first picked up Slaughterhouse-Five in Venice, on the recommendation of a fellow backpacker. I read Death in Venice, however, in Amsterdam, where the canals thinly evoked Thomas Mann's pestilent waterways. And if you ask me about San Sebastián, the lovely Basque seaside town, I'll flash back to the mind-blowing middle section of Cloud Atlas, which is set in postapocalyptic Hawaii. For authors, too, a place can serve as more of a catalyst than a setting. They go somewhere on holiday and end up learning something about their characters—or themselves. This is what happened to John le Carré in Corfu, and it's why, for this week's installment of The Atlantic 's literary-travel series, ' The Writer's Way,' Honor Jones chose to investigate le Carré's 600-page masterpiece, A Perfect Spy, by traveling to a place that takes up only a few pages in the novel. First, here are four new stories from The Atlantic 's Books section: 'If you wanted to write about le Carré and travel, you could go almost anywhere,' Jones explains: 'Vienna or Bern or Kenya or Cornwall would make the list long before Corfu.' But consider the predicament of le Carré's protagonist, Magnus, an MI6 agent who has betrayed his country to the Communist Czechs and is lying low in Greece under cover of a family vacation. 'If you're trying to find someone who doesn't want to be found, you don't go to the obvious places,' Jones writes. 'You ignore the booked flight to Washington and the train ticket to Paris because you know they're false leads. You look where the trail is colder.' Le Carré himself had a chance encounter in Corfu that made its way into A Perfect Spy, in a scene that opens up a central theme of the novel—the legacy of a father (Magnus's but also le Carré's) who was a monstrous, charismatic narcissist. It was on the Greek island that le Carré ran into a man who'd worked for his father, a globe-trotting con artist. 'We was all bent, son,' the former henchman told him. 'But your dad was very, very bent.' Because great novels are rarely on the nose, le Carré sets a fictionalized version of this encounter in England. Corfu instead becomes the place where Magnus's Czech contact, the mysterious Axel, tries to entice the Brit to join him behind the Iron Curtain. The island, for centuries beset by repeated invasions and then an onslaught of tourism, holds broader thematic significance for Jones: 'Corfu is a good place to think about influence and identity, about how so many disparate fragments can cohere into a whole.' As it happens, I'm going to stop in Bern next week on a European rail vacation. The Swiss city takes up many more pages in A Perfect Spy than Corfu does; it's where Magnus, as a very young man, first meets Axel. But I've already read the novel, so I'll pack a different one. Inspired by The Atlantic 's new list of staffers' recommendations for must-read books, I'm going to finally dig into Hernan Diaz's Trust, which is set primarily in New York. So although I'll be in Europe, I'll probably be thinking of home. Chasing le Carré in Corfu By Honor Jones If you're trying to find someone who doesn't want to be found, you don't go to the obvious places. What to Read Ravelstein, by Saul Bellow Bellow's thinly veiled 2000 roman à clef about his friendship with the star academic Allan Bloom—the philosopher who wrote the best-selling jeremiad The Closing of the American Mind —is a tender portrait of its subject. But Bellow's novel is as much about the institutional culture that shaped Bloom. It is a paean to academia as an enterprise that works to sort ideas that are base and quotidian from those that are noble and timeless, and its titular character embodies this faith in the professoriate as a kind of secular priesthood. Abe Ravelstein is a study in contradictions. Devoted to a life of the mind, he approaches reading the classics as a kind of soul-craft, and he's preoccupied with the wisdom of ancient philosophers, poets, and statesmen; yet he also nurtures an irrepressible fondness for modern luxuries such as Armani suits, Cuban cigars, and 'solid-gold Montblanc pens.' The irony of Ravelstein is that its protagonist's celebrity is a symptom of the same commodification of knowledge that is eroding the things he most holds dear. Read 25 years later, the novel is an artifact of its time: The diminishment of the university's purpose that Bellow witnessed feels much more advanced today. — Out Next Week 📚 Flashout, by Alexis Soloski 📚 Kicking the Hornet's Nest: U.S. Foreign Policy in the Middle East From Truman to Trump, by Daniel E. Zoughbie Your Weekend Read When It Feels Good to Root for a Bad Guy By David Sims The local sheriff in Eddington, Joe Cross (Joaquin Phoenix), is the film's Bickle, though his final showdown is a far more absurd spectacle than the one in Taxi Driver. Aster's film is frightening, yes—but it's a dark and lacerating comedy first and foremost, playing out the power fantasies that fueled many an online conspiracy theory in the pandemic's early days (and still do now). And although Cross may not be as crushingly lonely as Bickle, he does share the character's escalating sense of paranoia. By plunging the viewer into this chaotic inner world, Aster illustrates the dissonant appeal of being enmeshed in the perspective of, and maybe even rooting for, an individual committed to their belief in justice—even if that commitment can border on sordid.
