<i> ( CHEERS AND APPLAUSE )</i>
>> Stephen: WELCOME BACK. >> THANK YOU, SIR. >> Stephen: NICE TO SEE YOU
AGAIN. >> VERY EXCITED TO BE BACK. >> Stephen: WE HAVE NOT HAD
YOU ON THE SHOW SINCE YOU WON AN EMMY AND A GOLDEN GLOBE FOR "BIG
LITTLE LIES." CONGRATULATIONS. >> THANK YOU VERY MUCH, THANK
YOU. >> Stephen: THAT'S REALLY
NICE. <i> ( APPLAUSE )</i>
EVERYBODY KNOWS YOU'RE FROM A STORIED ACTING FAMILY. HAS ANYONE ELSE IN YOUR FAMILY
WON AN EMMY? >> NO. <i> ( LAUGHTER ).</i> >> Stephen: SO YOU GET TO LORD
THAT OVER YOUR FAMILY. ( CLEARS THROAT )
DO YOU WEAR IT ON A CHAIN AROUND YOUR NECK BECAUSE THAT'S WHAT I
WOULD DO. >> NO. >> Stephen: YOU CAN'T DO THAT? >> NO, I WAS-- I WAS BORN AND
RAISED IN SWEDEN, AND WE HAVE SOMETHING IN SWEDEN CALLED THE
LAW OF JUNTA. IT'S A REAL THING. AND IT BASICALLY MEANS DON'T
THINK YOU'RE SPECIAL. IT'S MORE LIKE A CODE OF
CONDUCT. BUT IT TRANSLATES TO, YEAH, NO--
DON'T THINK YOU'RE SPECIAL. JUST KNOW --
>> Stephen: DON'T BRAG. >> NO OSTENTATIOUS FLAUNTING OF
YOUR ACCOLADES OR BRAG ABOUT YOUR ACHIEVEMENTS OR ANYTHING. >> Stephen: TRY NOT TO BE TOO
HAPPY. >> YEAH. SO IF YOU EVER-- LIKE, IF
SOMETHING GREAT HAPPENS OR YOU ACHIEVE SOMETHING, SWEDES GET
VERY EMBARRASSED AND THEY APOLOGIZE. >> Stephen: AND AT THE LAW OF
JUNTA. WHAT'S JUNTA MEAN? >> IT'S FICTION. IT'S A SMALL TOWN, I BELIEVE IN
DENMARK, IN A SHORT STORY FROM THE 1930s. AND IT WAS-- DENMARK FANS OUT
THERE. <i> ( APPLAUSE )</i>
>> Stephen: YEAH, YEAH. >> I'M FROM SWEDEN, SO YOU MIGHT
WANT TO KEEP IT DOWN. <i> ( LAUGHTER )</i>
YEAH. AND PEOPLE IN THIS TOWN JUST,
YOU KNOW, YOU KEEP EACH OTHER IN PLACE, LIKE, DON'T THINK YOU'RE
SPECIAL. LIKE, DON'T-- THAT'S WHY, LIKE,
THE FOUNDER OF IKEA, FAMOUSLY DROVE A VOLVO 244, LIKE, UNTIL
HE DIED. HE MIGHT HAVE DIED IN THE CAR. I DON'T KNOW. >> Stephen: YOU'RE NOT
SUPPOSED TO BE FLASH. >> NO FLASH. YOU WON'T FIND GOLD HUMMERS OR
ANYTHING LIKE THAT IN SWEDEN. >> Stephen: WHAT ABOUT THE OF
ROYAL FAMILY. THEY HAVE CROWNS AND THEY HAVE
ROBES. >> THINK IT'S SLIGHTLY
SCHIZOPHRENIC FOR THEM BECAUSE THEATRE ROYAL FAMILY, BUT
THEY'RE ALSO SWEDES. SO THEY'RE LIKE, "HEY, I'M THE
KING. SORRY." <i> ( LAUGHTER )
( APPLAUSE ).</i> >> Stephen: WELL, I FEEL BAD--
I'LL TELL YOU WHAT I FEEL SORRY ABOUT IS THE YEAR THAT YOU WON
WAS NOT THIS YEAR BUT THE YEAR BEFORE WAS THE EMMYS THAT I WAS
HOSTING. AND YOU CAME TO THE AFTER-PARTY
THAT I THREW, AND I-- AND I SAW YOU. AND I DID NOT KNOW YOU HAD WON
BECAUSE WHEN YOU'RE HOSTING, YOU ACTUALLY DON'T GET TO WATCH. YOU'RE PREPPING FOR THE NEXT
THING YOU'RE DOING, SO I DON'T KNOW WHO'S WINNING. AND I CERTAINLY AM A FAN, AND I
THOUGHT YOU SHOULD HAVE WON. BUT I SAW YOU AT THE PARTY
AFTERWARDS. AND I SAID, "HEY, DID YOU HAVE A
GOOD TIME TONIGHT?" >> I REMEMBER THAT. >> Stephen: AND YOU SAID,
"YEAH." <i> ( LAUGHTER )</i>
>> WELL, YOU KNOW, WHAT? YOU WERE THE ONLY PERSON THAT
DIDN'T MAKE ME UNCOMFORTABLE THAT NIGHT. BECAUSE EVERYONE ELSE WAS. >> Audience: OOHH! >> Stephen: STEPHEN! NO, BECAUSE OF THE GOOD OLD-- I
WAS UNCOMFORTABLE BECAUSE PEOPLE CONGRATULATED ME AND I DIDN'T
KNOW HOW TO DEAL WITH THAT AND I COULDN'T TAKE IT. SO I WAS VERY-- AND IT WAS
REFRESHING ANDICA THARGTIC TO MEET YOU BECAUSE YOU HAVE NO
IDEA. "ARE YOU HAVING FUN TONIGHT. WELCOME TO MY PARTY." >> Stephen: I FELT TERRIBLE. >> YOU SHOULDN'T. >> Stephen: YOU COULD HAVE
SAID, "I WON." >> NO, I WOULD NEVER DO THAT! <i> ( LAUGHTER )</i>
AND THEN I DIDN'T KNOW WHAT-- <i> ( LAUGHTER )</i>
I DIDN'T KNOW WHAT TO DO WITH THE TROPHIES BECAUSE THAT WAS
ALSO, LIKE, A BIG THING OF, LIKE, HOW DO I AS A SWEDE-- I'M,
OBVIOUSLY, VERY PROUD OF THEM. BUT I'M A SWEDE, SO I CAN'T,
LIKE, JUST PUT THEM UP ON THE MANTELPIECE OR DISPLAY THEM SO I
KEPT THEM AT A FRIEND'S PLACE FOR A COUPLE OF MONTHS, AND I
BROUGHT THEM OVER MY PLACE IN A HIDDEN SUITCASE. AND THEN I PUT THEM NAY CLOSET
FOR A COUPLE OF MONTHS. THEN I THOUGHT THIS IS
RIDICULOUS. >> Stephen: YOU'RE ASHAMED. >> AND I'M NOT. I LOVE MY LITTLE TROPHIES. SO I CAN'T PUT THEM ON THE
BOOKSHELVES. SO I'M STILL STRUGGLING WITH IT. >> Stephen: MAYBE DRESS THEM
UP. DRESS THEM UP AS SOMETHING SO
THEY'RE THERE, BUT PEOPLE CAN'T RECOGNIZE THE EMMY. >> I ACTUALLY EVEN TRIED THAT. I THOUGHT IF I HANG A FLAG OR
SOMETHING ON IT, IT LOOKS LIKE IT'S-- OR A COAT HANGER. BUT THEN-- AND THEN IT KEPT ME
UP AT NIGHT, AND THEN I REALIZED, OH, THIS IS WHAT I'M
STRUGGLING WITH IN MY LIFE AS A HOLLYWOOD ACTOR. <i> ( LAUGHTER )</i>
I DON'T EYE DON'T KNOW WHERE TO PUT MY ACCOLADES. THERE'S, LIKE, SO MUCH PAIN AND
SUFFERING IN THE WORLD, AND I FEEL TERRIBLE BECAUSE-- AND THEN
I STARTED TO LOATHE MYSELF ABUSE, LIKE, THESE ARE THE
ISSUES IN MY LIFE AT THE MOMENT. >> Stephen: THAT WAY LIES
GREATNESS. AND MADNESS. <i> ( LAUGHTER ).</i> >> WELL, I-- I TOUCHED THE
MADNESS, NOT SO MUCH THE GREATNESS. >> Stephen: BUT, YOU KNOW, I
CAN UNDERSTAND YOU MIGHT HAVE A LITTLE TROUBLE WITH HOLLYWOOD
FAME BECAUSE YOU'RE JUST SOME GUY FROM SWEDEN, RIGHT? YOU SERVED IN THE MILITARY OVER
THERE, WHICH IS-- IS THAT COMPULSORY? >> IT USED TO BE. IT'S NOT NOW, NOT ANYMORE. >> Stephen: WAS IT WHEN YOU
WERE DOING IT? >> IT WAS KIND OF ON THE CUSP. YOU COULD GET OUT OF IT, IF YOU
WANTED TO. >> Stephen: YOU JUST SAY, "I
DON'T FEEL LIKE IT?" >> PRETTY MUCH. I HAD FRIENDS WHO KIND OF--
BASICALLY SAID, LIKE, "NO, THANKS." <i> ( LAUGHTER )</i>
YEAH. AND THE GOVERNMENT WOULD BE
LIKE, OTHER, THAT'S COOL." >> Stephen: WHAT DID YOU TRAIN
TO BE? >> IT'S CALLED SECT YUT. SECURITY AND HUNT. >> Stephen: SECURITY AND HUNT? >> YEAH, OUR JOB WAS TO SECURE
THE ISLAND, IT'S A SMALL UNIT, PART OF THE ROYAL NAVY, BUT
WE'RE LAND BASED AND IT'S BASICALLY TO SECURE THE ISLANDS. >> Stephen: SOME LIKE SPECIAL
FORCES. LIKE REALLY HIGHLY TRAINED
MILITARY FIGHTING? >> I APPLIED BECAUSE IT LOOKED
LIKE A JAMES BOND, THE LITTLE BOOKLET I READ. IT LOOKED BAD-ASS. >> Stephen: THERE'S A BOOKLET? >> YEAH. >> Stephen: I DON'T THINK
JAMES BOND CAME WAY BROCHURE. "SO YOU WANT TO BE A MEMBER OF
M.I.6?" >> THAT'S HOW THEY RECRUIT IT. YOUNG BOND WAS RECRUITED WITH A
BOOKLET, WITH PICTURE S. >> Stephen: CAN YOU EXPLAIN
TO ME WHAT THIS IS? I'VE BEEN TOLD THIS IS AN
IMPORTANT THING FOR SOMEONE WHO WAS IN THE SWEDISH MILITARY. WHAT IS THIS THAT I HAVE IN MY
HAND? >> IT'S UNIQUE TO MY UNIT. WEERT ONLY ONES ALLOWED TO WEAR
THAT. SO AND THIS IS --
>> Stephen: THIS AND OLD MEN FISHING IN AMERICA. <i> ( LAUGHTER )</i>
WHAT-- WHAT-- WHAT IS-- I THINK WOODY ALLEN WEARS ONE OF THESE. WHAT-- WHAT IS THIS? >> HE ACTUALLY SERVED IN THAT
UNIT BACK IN THE DAY. A LITTLE-KNOWN FACT. >> Stephen: THAT'S HOW HE GOT
TO KNOW BERGMAN. WHAT IS THIS? WHO IS THE SPECIALNESS OF THIS? >> IT'S A HAT. NO, IT'S-- YEAH, THEY DROPPED US
IN THE WOODS FOR WHAT FELT LIKE SIX MONTHS, BUT I THINK IT WAS
10 DAYS, AND IT WAS LIKE A SURVIVAL COURSE WHERE YOU
BASICALLY HAD TO-- THERE WERE DIFFERENT STATIONS --
>> Stephen: BY YOURSELF? >> THE UNIT, YEAH, IT WAS ME AND
THREE OTHER GUYS. >> Stephen: WHAT TIME OF YEAR? >> WINTER. >> Stephen: WINTER IN SWEDEN. THAT--
>> AND THEN THERE WERE DIFFERENT-- IT WAS LIKE AN
AMBUSH, AND THEN THEY HELD US HOSTAGE. AND YOU'RE, OBVIOUSLY, LIKE,
SLEEP DEPRIVED AND YOU DON'T EAT. AT ONE POINT I REMEMBER WE HAD
TO ASSEMBLE A CANOE. AND THAT WAS HORRIBLE BECAUSE WE
HAD BEEN WEAK FOR A WEEK, AND WE WERE STARVING AND WE'RE FROM THE
LAND IKEA, SO WE SHOULD BE ABLE TO DO THAT. <i> ( LAUGHTER ).</i> >> Stephen: DID IT COME WITH
AN ALAN WRENCH, THE CANOE? THAT'S THE PROBLEM. >> IT TOOK US NINE HOURS TO DO
THAT. AND IT WAS-- YEAH, IT WAS
HORRIBLE. BUT IT WAS ALL WORTH IT, BECAUSE
THEY GAVE ME A HAT AT THE END OF IT. >> Stephen: SO YOU EARNED THE
HAT BY DOING THAT. >> I EARNED THE HAT. >> Stephen: CONGRATULATIONS? >> THANK YOU. >> Stephen: PUT THIS OVER THE
EMMY AND NO ONE WILL SEE. PLAWF'S<i>
( APPLAUSE )</i> I UNDERSTAND-- WE'VE GOT TO GO
HERE IN A MINUTE AND I WANT TO TALK ABOUT "THE LITTLE DRUMMER
GIRL." I UNDERSTAND YOU'RE A SAILOR
NOW? DID YOU SOME-- A BIG OCEAN SAIL? >> I-- I WOULD NOT CALL MYSELF A
SAILOR. I-- I HAD AN OPPORTUNITY TO
CROSS THE ATLANTIC ON A SAILBOAT WITH PEOPLE WHO KNEW WHAT THEY
WERE DOING. <i> ( LAUGHTER ).</i> >> Stephen: IT WOULD HELP IF
YOU WERE A SAILOR. IT WOULD HELP IF YOU WERE A
SAILOR ON A SAILBOAT >> DIDN'T HELP THAT MUCH ON THE
BOAT, BUT I WAS PART OF IT, AND THAT WAS GREAT. >> Stephen: WHAT PORTS DID YOU
SAIL FROM? >> FROM VENTURA OFF THE COAST OF
AFRICA, TO THE CARIBBEAN. >> Stephen: OKAY. AND-- AND-- I'VE DONE A LITTLE
BIT OF OCEAN SAILING. I'VE DONE, ABOUT 1,000 MIELSZ OF
OPEN OCEAN SAILING. >> OKAY. >> Stephen: IT'S VERY SPOOKY
OUT THERE. >> YEAH. <i> ( LAUGHTER )</i>
>> Stephen: BECAUSE YOU'RE ALONE. >> WELL, YEAH, SO, FOR LIKE
EIGHT-- IT TOOK ABOUT THREE WEEKS, AND FOR EIGHT DAYS WE
DIDN'T SEE ANOTHER SHIP. AND IT'S EASY TO GO DOWN THE
RABBIT HOLE IF YOU START THINKING ABOUT THE FACT WE'RE
COMPLETELY ALONE. YOU HAVE NO HOSPITAL AROUND
HERE. IF YOU HAVE A BURST APPENDIX,
YOU'RE DONE, THERE'S NOTHING -- >> Stephen: SURE, YOU THINK OF
ALL THE WAYS I COULD DIE BEFORE HELP COULD GET TO ME. SERIOUSLY, YOU THINK ABOUT THAT
ALL THE TIME. >> AT ONE POINT, THERE WAS NO
WIND AND WE WERE STUCK FOR A LITTLE BIT. >> Stephen: THAT'S THE WORST
BECAUSE YOU GO SUPER SQUIRRELLY IN THE HEAD. >> THIS IS A TRUE STORY. AN OCEAN TURTLE PASSED US WHEN
WE WERE 700 MILES FROM LAND, THIS LITTLE GUY, JUST SWAM PAST
US. AND WE'RE LIKE, "THAT'S GREAT." <i> ( LAUGHTER ).</i> >> Stephen: SO THE NEW MOVIE

ROMANCE, BUT IT TURNS OUT HE'S A SPY AND HE HAS A DIFFERENT PLAN
FOR HER. >> Stephen: AND WE HAVE A
CLIP. >> IF I'M GOING TO DO THIS, I
HAVE TO KNOW WHAT IT IS I'M DECIDING TO DO. >> AND IN ORDER TO KNOW, YOU
FIRST HAVE TO DECIDE. >> WELL, THAT'S JUST MARVELOUS. THIS JOB, IS IT DANGEROUS? >> INCREDIBLY. THIS IS THE SECRET WORLD,
CHARLIE. ARE YOU IN OR OUT? >> WHO AM I? >> YOU. >> Stephen: DON'T DO IT. DON'T DO IT. >> THAT DUDE IS TROUBLE. <i> ( APPLAUSE )</i>

Sounds like bragging with extra steps.
True, or, well, yes, but I wouldn’t brag about it - of course.
How about bragging about their country's achievements?
Thats actually a danish code of conduct, but hey; TIL
so what did you do this year Johnny?
Nothing.
Great!
Unless asked specifically about your achievements bragging is generally frowned upon in Germany, too. For a lot of people it comes off as insulting.
We don't have a fancy word for it but a saying that goes 'no one likes show-offs'.
