Okay. Let's kick things off
with North Korea,
28
00:01:23,984 --> 00:01:26,220
voted "Korea of the Year"
by North Korea Magazine
29
00:01:26,320 --> 00:01:28,388
-for the past three decades.
-(laughter)
30
00:01:28,488 --> 00:01:30,657
A few years ago,
most people thought
31
00:01:30,757 --> 00:01:32,659
the only way the world
was going to end was
32
00:01:32,759 --> 00:01:34,528
if North Korea's
marshmallow dictator decided
33
00:01:34,628 --> 00:01:36,230
to kick off
a nuclear apocalypse.
34
00:01:36,330 --> 00:01:37,698
But since then,
we've all learned
35
00:01:37,798 --> 00:01:40,701
that there are actually
many ways the world could end.
36
00:01:40,801 --> 00:01:42,302
It could be a global pandemic.
37
00:01:42,402 --> 00:01:44,471
It could be Russia
starting a world war.
38
00:01:44,571 --> 00:01:47,107
It could be Apple
letting you edit iMessages.
39
00:01:47,207 --> 00:01:48,909
"I didn't say that."
40
00:01:49,009 --> 00:01:52,579
So, obviously, people haven't
been paying as much attention
41
00:01:52,679 --> 00:01:54,948
to North Korea lately,
which is probably why
42
00:01:55,115 --> 00:01:58,752
Kim Jong Un has decided to
remind us that he still exists.
43
00:01:58,852 --> 00:02:00,287
We're going to turn
to North Korea
44
00:02:00,387 --> 00:02:02,756
launching a new round
of missile tests.
45
00:02:02,856 --> 00:02:04,758
The regime firing off
eight rockets over the weekend,
46
00:02:04,858 --> 00:02:08,161

launching missiles in response

00:02:08,262 --> 00:02:09,563

48
00:02:09,663 --> 00:02:11,765
NEWSWOMAN: The U.S.
and South Korea sent eight
49
00:02:11,865 --> 00:02:14,134
surface-to-surface missiles
into the sea.
50
00:02:14,234 --> 00:02:18,305
That's after North Korea
did the same just hours earlier.
51
00:02:18,405 --> 00:02:20,574
There is no direct communication
that we know of
52
00:02:20,674 --> 00:02:24,077
between the Biden administration
and the North Korean regime.
53
00:02:24,178 --> 00:02:26,346
So instead, both sides seem
to be communicating
54
00:02:26,446 --> 00:02:28,782
through missile launches.
55
00:02:28,882 --> 00:02:32,352
Huh. The U.S. and North Korea
are communicating
56
00:02:32,452 --> 00:02:35,289
using missile launches?

It's so different.

"Missile, missile. You up?"
60
00:02:40,661 --> 00:02:42,996
"Missile, missile. Nuh-uh."
61
00:02:43,096 --> 00:02:45,098
No, for real. That actually
sounds like a couple
62
00:02:45,132 --> 00:02:47,100
that really needs therapy.
You know, it's just like,
63
00:02:47,167 --> 00:02:49,570
"And what do you do
when she shuts you out?"
64
00:02:49,670 --> 00:02:52,239
"I launch missiles."
65
00:02:52,339 --> 00:02:53,841
"And what are we are supposed
to do?"
66
00:02:53,941 --> 00:02:55,776
"Talk to the U.N."
67
00:02:55,876 --> 00:02:57,544
(laughter)
68
00:02:57,644 --> 00:02:59,379
You know, people say
69
00:02:59,479 --> 00:03:01,048
that Black people and
white people can't get along.
70
00:03:01,148 --> 00:03:03,050
But I don't know
what hope there is in the world
71
00:03:03,150 --> 00:03:05,819
if North and South Korea
can't even get along. Yeah.
72
00:03:05,919 --> 00:03:07,588
They're both Korean
looking at the other one like,
73
00:03:07,688 --> 00:03:09,590
"These (bleep) Koreans, man!"

75
00:03:11,725 --> 00:03:13,193
And you know
who I feel really bad for?
76
00:03:13,293 --> 00:03:14,595
Those missiles. Yeah.
77
00:03:14,695 --> 00:03:16,129
The missiles
that were shot into the ocean.
78
00:03:16,230 --> 00:03:17,531

79
00:03:17,631 --> 00:03:19,366
They think
they have a specific purpose
80
00:03:19,466 --> 00:03:22,169
to blow up in glorious combat,
but then,
81
00:03:22,269 --> 00:03:24,071
they just end up being used
for a show.
82
00:03:24,104 --> 00:03:26,206
It must hurt their feelings.
83
00:03:26,306 --> 00:03:27,641
It's like being a condom
84
00:03:27,741 --> 00:03:29,743
that gets put on a banana
for sex ed class.
85
00:03:29,843 --> 00:03:33,213
-(laughter) -I was meant
for greater things, damn it!

00:03:36,116 --> 00:03:37,684
No, but joking aside, though,
joking aside,
87
00:03:37,784 --> 00:03:39,086
I want to be serious
for a moment here
88
00:03:39,119 --> 00:03:41,188
because
let me get this straight.
89
00:03:41,288 --> 00:03:43,657
North Korea and South Korea
90
00:03:43,757 --> 00:03:47,728
and the United States are now
launching missile after missile
91
00:03:47,828 --> 00:03:49,162
into the ocean,
92
00:03:49,263 --> 00:03:52,699
but I'm not allowed
to use plastic straws? Huh?
93
00:03:52,799 --> 00:03:54,468
Is that right?
Is that right?
94
00:03:54,568 --> 00:03:56,570
I'm out here
trying to do my part
95
00:03:56,670 --> 00:03:59,873
using a straw that dissolves the
second I put it into my drink.
96
00:04:00,040 --> 00:04:02,643
The second I put it in.
97
00:04:02,743 --> 00:04:04,778
It's gone.
98
00:04:08,282 --> 00:04:09,683
I don't even know
what I'm drinking in.
99
00:04:09,783 --> 00:04:13,120
"What are you having, Trevor?"
Oh, a tequila paper mache.
100
00:04:13,220 --> 00:04:14,488
Yeah, I saved a turtle--
101
00:04:14,588 --> 00:04:17,224
the one that got shot
by a ballistic missile!
102
00:04:19,226 --> 00:04:21,828
And what does the ocean
have to do with our beef, huh?
103
00:04:21,929 --> 00:04:24,932
Those creatures are down there
just trying to live their lives.
104
00:04:25,065 --> 00:04:27,801
They don't need to deal with
missiles from human conflicts.
105
00:04:27,901 --> 00:04:29,369
Can you imagine
what it's like for them?
106
00:04:31,738 --> 00:04:35,542
(Jamaican accent): Ariel,
life is better under the sea.
107
00:04:35,642 --> 00:04:37,444
We rule in the waves,
108
00:04:37,544 --> 00:04:39,313
the fish swim in the seaweed.
109
00:04:39,413 --> 00:04:41,315
We're--
110
00:04:41,415 --> 00:04:43,917
Aah! Aah!
111
00:04:44,084 --> 00:04:48,088
Oh, no! Oh, no!
Everybody's dead.
112
00:04:48,155 --> 00:04:50,257
Everybody's dead!
113
00:04:50,357 --> 00:04:51,725
The fish are all dead
under the sea.
114
00:04:51,825 --> 00:04:54,928
Ariel don't got
no legs or a head.
115
00:04:55,095 --> 00:04:56,997
And the worst part
is having my accent
116
00:04:57,097 --> 00:04:59,533
makes me sound jolly
even when I'm not.
117
00:04:59,633 --> 00:05:02,069
This is where
I wish I was from Germany.
118
00:05:02,169 --> 00:05:03,937
This accent doesn't
convey the tragedy
119
00:05:04,037 --> 00:05:06,039
of this terrible crime
that's happened
120
00:05:06,139 --> 00:05:08,542
under the sea!
121
00:05:19,653 --> 00:05:20,554
(regular accent):
But enough about those
122
00:05:20,654 --> 00:05:22,890
North Korean missile strikes.
123
00:05:23,056 --> 00:05:24,525
There are bigger threats
here at home, people,
124
00:05:24,625 --> 00:05:26,059
that we need to deal with.
125
00:05:26,093 --> 00:05:27,528
And, yes, I'm talking about
126
00:05:27,628 --> 00:05:30,631
the danger of trans children
playing sports.
127
00:05:30,731 --> 00:05:32,900
Which, luckily,
lawmakers in Ohio
128
00:05:33,066 --> 00:05:36,336
are ready to take
a really hard look at.
129
00:05:36,436 --> 00:05:38,305
So, as we enter Pride Month,
130
00:05:38,405 --> 00:05:40,607
the GOP-controlled
Ohio state legislature
131
00:05:40,707 --> 00:05:43,777
passing one of the most
extreme trans sports bans
132
00:05:43,877 --> 00:05:45,078
we've seen to date.
133
00:05:45,179 --> 00:05:48,382
Uh, that bill including
a shocking provision
134
00:05:48,482 --> 00:05:51,418
that calls for examining
the genitals
135
00:05:51,518 --> 00:05:55,122
of female athletes who are
"accused of being trans."
136
00:05:55,222 --> 00:05:57,591
NEWSWOMAN: The proposed rules
would prohibit any trans girl
137
00:05:57,691 --> 00:06:00,027
from competing
with cisgender girls.
138
00:06:00,060 --> 00:06:02,062
It also has
a verification requirement
139
00:06:02,162 --> 00:06:04,898
if I somebody is accused
of being trans.
140
00:06:05,032 --> 00:06:07,801
The bill says if someone
is suspected to be trans,
141
00:06:07,901 --> 00:06:09,503
she must go through evaluations
142
00:06:09,603 --> 00:06:12,139
of her external
and internal genitalia,
143
00:06:12,239 --> 00:06:15,576
testosterone levels
and genetic makeup.
144
00:06:15,676 --> 00:06:17,678
Yeah, that's right, America,
you asked lawmakers
145
00:06:17,778 --> 00:06:20,113
to protect your kids from guns,
and they said,
146
00:06:20,214 --> 00:06:23,217
"We got you. We're gonna
look at your kids' genitals."
147
00:06:23,317 --> 00:06:26,220
Uh, I feel like there was
a miscommunication there.
148
00:06:26,320 --> 00:06:27,955
Because, which one do
you think is more traumatizing
149
00:06:28,055 --> 00:06:29,456
to your kid?
Honest question.
150
00:06:29,556 --> 00:06:31,491
What do you think's
more traumatizing to a child:
151
00:06:31,592 --> 00:06:33,827
them losing a race
in high school
152
00:06:33,927 --> 00:06:35,395
or them winning the race
153
00:06:35,495 --> 00:06:37,531
and then having to get probed
by a doctor
154
00:06:37,631 --> 00:06:40,300
to see if their genitals are,
what, the right size?
155
00:06:40,400 --> 00:06:42,135
Because it's bad enough
to target trans girls, but you-
156
00:06:42,236 --> 00:06:44,872
you understand this law actually
targets all girls, right?
157
00:06:44,972 --> 00:06:47,841
Or at least all the girls
who are "too good" at the sport.
158
00:06:47,941 --> 00:06:50,143
Yeah, 'cause you know
how this is gonna turn out.
159
00:06:50,244 --> 00:06:52,613
I've seen enough American
parents beating each other up
160
00:06:52,713 --> 00:06:53,981
at Little League games
to know
161
00:06:54,081 --> 00:06:55,949
that this is gonna be weaponized
to win a game.
162
00:06:56,083 --> 00:06:57,684
It's only a matter of time
before a softball pitcher
163
00:06:57,784 --> 00:07:00,020
strikes out three girls in a row
and then a parent's gonna
164
00:07:00,053 --> 00:07:02,022
rush the field like,
"Genital check!
165
00:07:02,122 --> 00:07:05,559
"No way she's throwing 95
with two X chromosomes!
166
00:07:05,659 --> 00:07:09,029
No ways!
Show me that (bleep)!"
167
00:07:09,062 --> 00:07:10,497
"Dad!"
168
00:07:12,599 --> 00:07:15,169
Who are they gonna find
to do these examinations, huh?
169
00:07:15,269 --> 00:07:17,137
Who's even gonna do this?
What, every dude
170
00:07:17,237 --> 00:07:19,339
wearing one of those "female
body inspector" T-shirts?
171
00:07:19,439 --> 00:07:21,041
Are they gonna be drafted
into service now?
172
00:07:21,141 --> 00:07:22,442
"No, it was just a joke.
173
00:07:22,543 --> 00:07:24,444
I don't actually have
any training in this area."
174
00:07:24,545 --> 00:07:26,046
(laughter)
175
00:07:26,079 --> 00:07:27,214
So, obviously, you understand
176
00:07:27,314 --> 00:07:28,382
why there's backlash
to this bill.
177
00:07:28,482 --> 00:07:31,185
In fact,
some doctors in Ohio are saying
178
00:07:31,285 --> 00:07:34,154
that they refuse to investigate
children's genitals
179
00:07:34,254 --> 00:07:36,190
as part of this law. Yeah.
180
00:07:36,290 --> 00:07:40,060
-(cheering and applause)
-Which is good, but...
181
00:07:42,296 --> 00:07:43,664
I mean...
182
00:07:45,299 --> 00:07:47,334
I also don't agree with it,
you know.
183
00:07:47,434 --> 00:07:48,836
If they wanted to stand back
184
00:07:48,936 --> 00:07:50,237
and do nothing
to keep our kids safe,
185
00:07:50,337 --> 00:07:51,872
then they should have become
police officers.
186
00:07:51,972 --> 00:07:54,074
-All right, finally...
-(audience gasps, murmurs)
187
00:07:54,174 --> 00:07:56,310
-(cheering and applause)
-Too true?
188
00:07:56,410 --> 00:07:59,112
-Too real?
-(laughter)
189
00:07:59,213 --> 00:08:00,914
All right, finally,
as you may know,
190
00:08:01,014 --> 00:08:02,149
a couple of weeks from now,
191
00:08:02,249 --> 00:08:04,017
America will be celebrating
Juneteenth,
192
00:08:04,051 --> 00:08:06,854
the holiday commemorating
the end of slavery.
193
00:08:07,020 --> 00:08:08,522
Or, as Tucker Carlson
would put it,
194
00:08:08,622 --> 00:08:10,424
the day
millions of African Americans
195
00:08:10,524 --> 00:08:14,061
became unemployed.
Is that progress?
196
00:08:14,161 --> 00:08:17,698
Anyway, because Juneteenth
is now a federal holiday,
197
00:08:17,798 --> 00:08:19,800
more people are celebrating
than ever before.
198
00:08:19,900 --> 00:08:21,335
The only problem is
199
00:08:21,435 --> 00:08:25,105
not everyone knows
the best way to celebrate.
200
00:08:25,205 --> 00:08:27,774
NEWSWOMAN: Walmart is under fire
for selling Juneteenth products
201
00:08:27,875 --> 00:08:30,444
that some people say
are tone-deaf and insensitive.
202
00:08:30,544 --> 00:08:33,614
The products have been lambasted
by many online
203
00:08:33,714 --> 00:08:35,682
after pictures
of Juneteenth ice cream
204
00:08:35,782 --> 00:08:37,384
and party supplies surfaced.
205
00:08:37,484 --> 00:08:39,319
The Children's Museum
of Indianapolis
206
00:08:39,419 --> 00:08:41,588
is apologizing after backlash
207
00:08:41,688 --> 00:08:45,492
to a Juneteenth-inspired
food item in its cafeteria.
208
00:08:45,592 --> 00:08:49,062
The museum offered
the Juneteenth watermelon salad.
209
00:08:49,096 --> 00:08:51,365
The museum released a statement
saying in part,
210
00:08:51,465 --> 00:08:53,333
"As a museum, we apologize
211
00:08:53,433 --> 00:08:55,169
"and acknowledge
the negative impact
212
00:08:55,269 --> 00:08:58,438
that stereotypes have
on communities of color."
213
00:08:58,539 --> 00:09:01,074
Oh, this shit
pisses me off so much.
214
00:09:01,175 --> 00:09:03,877
How are you gonna make
a Juneteenth ice cream? Huh?!
215
00:09:04,011 --> 00:09:05,679
I hope they took it all
off the shelves
216
00:09:05,779 --> 00:09:07,714
and they got rid of it.
In fact, I don't trust them.
217
00:09:07,814 --> 00:09:10,184
I hope they send it here
to The Daily Show,
218
00:09:10,284 --> 00:09:12,386
and I'll-I'll
deal with it personally.
219
00:09:12,486 --> 00:09:14,021
Oh, every single one
of those ice...
220
00:09:14,087 --> 00:09:15,556
And any other ideas they have
for ice cream,
221
00:09:15,656 --> 00:09:16,790
they better send them here.
222
00:09:16,890 --> 00:09:18,058
(laughter and applause)
223
00:09:18,158 --> 00:09:20,194
Just what a random...
What are you doing?
224
00:09:20,294 --> 00:09:22,029
What are doing?
225
00:09:24,631 --> 00:09:27,034
You know,
apart from the watermelon,
226
00:09:27,100 --> 00:09:28,235
Black people stereotypes,
227
00:09:28,335 --> 00:09:30,037
it's amazing to me
how America does this.
228
00:09:30,103 --> 00:09:32,539
Like, they turn
every meaningful holiday
229
00:09:32,639 --> 00:09:34,908
into an excuse to spend money.
230
00:09:35,042 --> 00:09:37,144
Like, that's part
of the problem here.
231
00:09:37,244 --> 00:09:40,948
You don't need to sell things
for Juneteenth.
232
00:09:41,048 --> 00:09:43,283
Juneteenth wasn't even
a mainstream thing last year.
233
00:09:43,383 --> 00:09:44,551
Think about it.
But now, already,
234
00:09:44,651 --> 00:09:45,752
they've turned it
into a day of merch.
235
00:09:45,853 --> 00:09:48,055
And-and look, I mean,
I-I'm not hating.
236
00:09:48,121 --> 00:09:50,524
You know? We-we do it, too,
here on the show.
237
00:09:50,624 --> 00:09:52,893
Yeah. I mean, this whole segment
is brought to you
238
00:09:53,060 --> 00:09:56,763
by Taco Bell's brand-new
flaming Juneteenth gorditas.
239
00:09:56,864 --> 00:09:59,766
Taco Bell:
emancipate your taste buds.
240
00:09:59,867 --> 00:10:01,568
-(bell rings)
-(grunting)
241
00:10:01,668 --> 00:10:03,537
(cheering and applause)
242
00:10:04,538 --> 00:10:05,839
All right,
that's it for the headlines.
243
00:10:05,939 --> 00:10:08,208
But before we go,
let's check in on traffic
244
00:10:08,308 --> 00:10:10,043
with our very own Roy Wood Jr.,
everybody!
245
00:10:10,143 --> 00:10:11,945
(cheering and applause)
246
00:10:12,045 --> 00:10:14,314
-Hello.
-What up, Roy?
247
00:10:14,414 --> 00:10:15,716
What's up, man?
248
00:10:15,816 --> 00:10:17,584
-Good to see you, Roy.
Good to see you. -Yeah, man.
249
00:10:17,684 --> 00:10:19,152
Good to be here.
250
00:10:19,253 --> 00:10:20,721
-Good to be here, man.
-So, uh,
251
00:10:20,821 --> 00:10:22,589
let's jump into it, Roy.
What's happening in the traffic?
252
00:10:22,689 --> 00:10:24,491
Let's jump into these roads.
R-Real quick, though,
253
00:10:24,591 --> 00:10:26,627
before do I the traffic,
254
00:10:26,727 --> 00:10:29,363
you got something
you want to say to me?
255
00:10:29,463 --> 00:10:31,698
Uh, uh, good evening, Roy.
256
00:10:31,798 --> 00:10:33,300
You don't... You don't have
nothing to say to me?
257
00:10:33,400 --> 00:10:34,635
-Nothing like...
-Like-like what?
258
00:10:34,735 --> 00:10:35,969
Like I was right?
259
00:10:36,069 --> 00:10:37,538
You don't...
You don't... You don't...
260
00:10:37,638 --> 00:10:39,173
You don't want to tell me
I was right?
261
00:10:39,273 --> 00:10:41,041
About... You-you remember
what I said last week?
262
00:10:41,141 --> 00:10:42,910
-On the show?
-Yes, on the show.
263
00:10:43,010 --> 00:10:45,179
Remember last week,
we was talking about the-the...
264
00:10:45,279 --> 00:10:48,081
Biden was sending all the
weapons to Ukraine and Russia
265
00:10:48,182 --> 00:10:49,583
-and all that. -Oh, yeah, the
Russian... The Russians, yeah.
266
00:10:49,683 --> 00:10:51,418
And I said all we had to do
to get Russia to slow down
267
00:10:51,518 --> 00:10:53,453
was just buck a couple
of missiles in the air.
268
00:10:53,554 --> 00:10:55,622
Pop, pop, pop.
269
00:10:55,722 --> 00:10:56,990
And then what'd North Korea do?
270
00:10:57,090 --> 00:10:57,991
What'd they do?
271
00:10:58,091 --> 00:10:59,226
They shot the missiles.
272
00:10:59,326 --> 00:11:01,328
-And then what'd we do?
-Shot the missiles back.
273
00:11:01,428 --> 00:11:03,230
Did North Korea shoot a missile
back after we shot that missile
274
00:11:03,330 --> 00:11:05,132
after they shot their missile?
275
00:11:05,232 --> 00:11:06,466
-No, they did not.
-I was right.
276
00:11:06,567 --> 00:11:07,935
That's what I told you.
277
00:11:08,068 --> 00:11:09,136
-I was right.
-(cheering and applause)
278
00:11:09,236 --> 00:11:10,938
And you don't remember that.
279
00:11:11,071 --> 00:11:12,339
-No, you...
-No, but you're looking--
280
00:11:12,439 --> 00:11:14,508
Show him the picture!
Show him the picture!
281
00:11:14,608 --> 00:11:17,110
-What...
-That's me.
282
00:11:17,211 --> 00:11:19,279
That's me being right last week.
283
00:11:20,247 --> 00:11:21,949
That's me last week being right.
284
00:11:22,082 --> 00:11:23,350
That is you being right.
285
00:11:23,450 --> 00:11:26,553
-Yeah, man. I got some-- lot-lot
of good ideas, man. -Yeah.
286
00:11:26,653 --> 00:11:28,222
-Seems-seems like a good idea.
-Well, it's a good thing
287
00:11:28,322 --> 00:11:29,823
that somebody
from the Biden administration
288
00:11:29,923 --> 00:11:32,826
is watching this show
and got that idea from me.
289
00:11:32,926 --> 00:11:35,395
And then went and shot the
missiles back at North Korea.
290
00:11:35,495 --> 00:11:36,697
I don't-- I don't know
if that's happening.
291
00:11:36,797 --> 00:11:38,098
That's what you supposed to do.
292
00:11:38,198 --> 00:11:40,100
When somebody act bad,
you supposed to bup, bup.
293
00:11:40,200 --> 00:11:41,235
It's like Boyz n the Hood.
294
00:11:41,335 --> 00:11:42,669
-I keep telling you.
-Oh, yeah. Back--
295
00:11:42,769 --> 00:11:44,104
-It's Boyz-- It's exactly
like... -It's like Ice Cube
296
00:11:44,137 --> 00:11:45,606
in Boyz n the Hood.
"We got a problem here?
297
00:11:45,706 --> 00:11:47,274
We got a problem?"
298
00:11:47,374 --> 00:11:48,642
Matter of fact, let me talk
to Biden. Which one--
299
00:11:48,742 --> 00:11:50,711
Give me one of them cameras.
The-the-- J-Joe Biden,
300
00:11:50,811 --> 00:11:52,379
shoot another missile.
301
00:11:52,479 --> 00:11:54,381
-What? No. -Shoot
another missile. Let 'em know.
302
00:11:54,481 --> 00:11:56,884
I got a lot of ideas, man.
I got a lot of ideas.
303
00:11:56,984 --> 00:11:58,752
You're just gonna tell him
to shoot-- No. No more missiles.
304
00:11:58,852 --> 00:12:00,554
I didn't say hit the country.
Just, you know, phoom,
305
00:12:00,654 --> 00:12:02,055
like, right past, you know?
306
00:12:02,155 --> 00:12:03,824
(laughs)
No.
307
00:12:03,924 --> 00:12:05,626
No. No more missiles.
308
00:12:05,726 --> 00:12:06,727
What's-what's happening
in the traffic?
309
00:12:06,827 --> 00:12:07,961
Oh, you want the traffic.
That's my bad.
310
00:12:08,061 --> 00:12:09,296
Want to do the traffic.
311
00:12:09,396 --> 00:12:11,064
The-- Here's the thing
about that watermelon salad.
312
00:12:11,164 --> 00:12:12,900
Yes.
313
00:12:13,066 --> 00:12:14,968
First of all,
this is part of the problem
314
00:12:15,068 --> 00:12:17,070
with them trying
to get CRT out of schools.
315
00:12:17,104 --> 00:12:19,306
Now they're just slapping it
on all the food
316
00:12:19,406 --> 00:12:21,575
and trying to sneak
Black history on you...
317
00:12:21,675 --> 00:12:23,777
-(laughs) -...in the middle
of the damn day
318
00:12:23,877 --> 00:12:25,078
while you trying
to eat some salad.
319
00:12:25,145 --> 00:12:27,080
And that-that's just too much,
man.
320
00:12:27,181 --> 00:12:29,283
So you-you don't want
a Juneteenth salad?
321
00:12:29,383 --> 00:12:33,086
No. (stammers) What-what I--
what I feel, dawg, is that...
322
00:12:33,153 --> 00:12:34,821
we tried with Juneteenth.
We tried.
323
00:12:34,922 --> 00:12:36,890
-Okay. -We tried to celebrate it
collectively as a group.
324
00:12:36,990 --> 00:12:38,225
It didn't work. We got
to give it back to Black people.
325
00:12:38,325 --> 00:12:40,694
This is just ours
and we'll just take it
326
00:12:40,794 --> 00:12:42,529
and we'll just celebrate it
by ourself,
327
00:12:42,629 --> 00:12:45,332
-with nobody else involved.
-(cheering and applause)
328
00:12:45,432 --> 00:12:47,334
It's just certain stuff
that just got to stay Black.
329
00:12:47,434 --> 00:12:48,902
We just got to keep it Black.
We tried.
330
00:12:49,002 --> 00:12:50,604
(stammers)
Certain stuff is just for us.
331
00:12:50,704 --> 00:12:51,872
It just-- Don't make a share.
332
00:12:51,972 --> 00:12:53,473
We got to keep Juneteenth.
Got to keep Kwanzaa.
333
00:12:53,574 --> 00:12:54,875
We got to keep Essence Festival.
334
00:12:54,975 --> 00:12:55,876
We'll take Bobby Brown.
335
00:12:55,976 --> 00:12:58,545
Just certain stuff is ours.
336
00:12:58,645 --> 00:12:59,880
It's just ours.
337
00:13:00,047 --> 00:13:03,517
So the-the holiday would only be
for Black Americans then?
338
00:13:03,617 --> 00:13:05,052
No, it's not f...
339
00:13:05,085 --> 00:13:06,186
It's like...
(stammers)
340
00:13:06,286 --> 00:13:08,455
It's our holiday.
It's-it's separate,
341
00:13:08,555 --> 00:13:11,458
but it's... equal.
342
00:13:13,594 --> 00:13:14,928
See? You're trying
to throw me off.
343
00:13:15,062 --> 00:13:16,697
-This is all I'm saying, man.
-I-I didn't say anything.
344
00:13:16,797 --> 00:13:18,232
-I just asked a question.
-No, all I'm s-- all I'm saying
345
00:13:18,332 --> 00:13:21,101
is that you don't have
to put history in everything.
346
00:13:21,201 --> 00:13:22,169
The salad looked good.
347
00:13:22,269 --> 00:13:23,804
That's the thing
that was so sad about it.
348
00:13:23,904 --> 00:13:26,073
Had the little feta cheese.
It had the vinaigrette in there.
349
00:13:26,106 --> 00:13:28,208
-I saw that. -You didn't have
to put "Juneteenth" on it.
350
00:13:28,308 --> 00:13:30,177
All-- You had me
at "watermelon."
351
00:13:30,277 --> 00:13:32,346
-(laughs)
-(cheering and applause)
352
00:13:32,446 --> 00:13:33,947
That's all you had to do.
353
00:13:38,785 --> 00:13:40,120
But it's cool.
354
00:13:40,220 --> 00:13:41,555
It's cool.
355
00:13:41,655 --> 00:13:43,390
I'm-a do the traffic. You want
me to do the traffic, man?
356
00:13:43,490 --> 00:13:45,526
-I...
-Oh, man.
357
00:13:45,626 --> 00:13:47,227
Do we even have time
for traffic?
358
00:13:47,327 --> 00:13:48,395
No, we...
359
00:13:48,495 --> 00:13:50,163
I mean, it's traffic, man.
If you live here,
360
00:13:50,264 --> 00:13:52,633
then don't-- it's messed up.
If you...
361
00:13:53,734 --> 00:13:55,836
If you know where that is,
then you know not to go there.
362
00:13:55,936 --> 00:13:57,404
Don't go there.
363
00:13:59,106 --> 00:14:00,040
Back to you.
364
00:14:00,073 --> 00:14:01,842
(cheering and applause)
365
00:14:01,942 --> 00:14:03,610
Thank you so much. Roy Wood Jr.
366
00:14:03,710 --> 00:14:05,179
When we come back,
we're gonna be taking a look
367
00:14:05,279 --> 00:14:07,481
at L.A.'s biggest casting
decision.
368
00:14:07,581 --> 00:14:09,483
You don't want to miss it.
(laughing)
369
00:14:09,583 --> 00:14:11,618
(cheering and applause)
370
00:14:17,138 --> 00:14:19,173
(applause and cheering)
371
00:14:25,579 --> 00:14:27,515
Welcome back
to The Daily Show.
372
00:14:27,615 --> 00:14:31,652
The midterm elections are
five months away, which means
373
00:14:31,752 --> 00:14:33,054
you still have five months
374
00:14:33,154 --> 00:14:35,623
to figure out
who your congressperson is.
375
00:14:35,723 --> 00:14:39,593
But midterm primary season
is already in full swing,
376
00:14:39,694 --> 00:14:42,897
and in Los Angeles tomorrow,
there is a major election
377
00:14:42,997 --> 00:14:45,299
that will likely decide
who the next mayor is.
378
00:14:45,399 --> 00:14:47,268
So, let's see
what's going on in L.A.
379
00:14:47,368 --> 00:14:50,938
in our ongoing coverage
of Votedemic 2022.
380
00:14:51,038 --> 00:14:52,940
♪ ♪
381
00:14:53,040 --> 00:14:57,011
(applause and cheering)
382
00:14:57,111 --> 00:14:59,380
Los Angeles--
it's the best place to live
383
00:14:59,480 --> 00:15:02,283
if you like sunshine, good vibes
and the occasional earthquake.
384
00:15:02,383 --> 00:15:05,186
Whoa! I got to tweet that.
385
00:15:05,286 --> 00:15:07,555
Now, as America's
second biggest city
386
00:15:07,655 --> 00:15:10,624
and its number one producer of
disgruntled Lakers supporters,
387
00:15:10,725 --> 00:15:14,462
they, for the last eight years,
have been led by Eric Garcetti,
388
00:15:14,562 --> 00:15:17,465
but now's he leaving,
because, you see,
389
00:15:17,565 --> 00:15:18,999
being a mayor was a side gig
he was doing
390
00:15:19,100 --> 00:15:20,668
until he finally landed
an acting role
391
00:15:20,768 --> 00:15:22,536
on Grey's Anatomy.
It's very exciting. Yeah.
392
00:15:22,636 --> 00:15:24,005
He's the guy
who comes in screaming,
393
00:15:24,105 --> 00:15:25,673
"Is this the hospital?!"
394
00:15:25,773 --> 00:15:27,241
Gripping performance.
395
00:15:27,274 --> 00:15:29,377
Which means it's now time
for L.A. to pick a new mayor,
396
00:15:29,477 --> 00:15:32,146
and when this race began,
there was a clear frontrunner--
397
00:15:32,246 --> 00:15:34,148
Congresswoman Karen Bass, right?
398
00:15:34,248 --> 00:15:35,783
She has a decade
of experience in congress,
399
00:15:35,883 --> 00:15:38,152
and a couple years ago,
she was nearly picked
400
00:15:38,252 --> 00:15:41,088
to be Joe Biden's
vice president. Yeah.
401
00:15:41,255 --> 00:15:43,891
-She was this close
to ruining her life. -(laughter)
402
00:15:43,991 --> 00:15:48,062
Now, now, Congresswoman Bass
has the full support
403
00:15:48,162 --> 00:15:50,331
of the party establishment
in this race.
404
00:15:50,431 --> 00:15:52,633
And that meant
that she was going to win.
405
00:15:52,733 --> 00:15:55,436
For much of the campaign, she
had a clear lead in the polls.
406
00:15:55,536 --> 00:15:58,906
But that was all
until this happened.
407
00:15:59,006 --> 00:16:01,175
NEWSWOMAN: 63-year-old
billionaire developer
408
00:16:01,275 --> 00:16:04,378
and philanthropist Rick Caruso
is joining a crowded field
409
00:16:04,478 --> 00:16:07,114
of candidates who intend
to run for L.A. mayor.
410
00:16:07,281 --> 00:16:09,116
Caruso is well-known
for his real estate company
411
00:16:09,283 --> 00:16:10,584
that built shopping areas
412
00:16:10,685 --> 00:16:12,553
like The Grove
and Americana at Brand.
413
00:16:12,653 --> 00:16:15,089
NEWSWOMAN 2: One of the world's
most successful developers.
414
00:16:15,189 --> 00:16:17,658
His crown jewel--
The Grove at Farmer's Market.
415
00:16:17,758 --> 00:16:19,393
The shopping mecca is said
to draw
416
00:16:19,493 --> 00:16:21,328
more people than Disneyland.
417
00:16:21,429 --> 00:16:23,397
NEWSMAN:
Caruso used to be a Republican
418
00:16:23,497 --> 00:16:25,599
and only changed
his registration to Democrat
419
00:16:25,700 --> 00:16:27,635
one month
before announcing his run.
420
00:16:27,735 --> 00:16:29,770
I really want to reinvent
the Democratic Party
421
00:16:29,870 --> 00:16:33,674
to go back to what it was,
I think, 30 years ago.
422
00:16:33,774 --> 00:16:35,876
Can I... can I ask you
an honest question?
423
00:16:35,976 --> 00:16:37,745
Why do so many politicians want
424
00:16:37,845 --> 00:16:39,814
to go back in time,
but never forward?
425
00:16:39,914 --> 00:16:42,116
-Like, they always say that.
-(applause and cheering)
426
00:16:42,249 --> 00:16:43,951
"I want to go back."
427
00:16:44,051 --> 00:16:47,288
"Take the Democratic party
back 30 years."
428
00:16:47,388 --> 00:16:49,490
"Make America great again."
429
00:16:49,590 --> 00:16:51,258
"Bring back the good old days."
430
00:16:51,359 --> 00:16:53,294
People, we already
tried the past.
431
00:16:53,394 --> 00:16:55,963
That is how we ended up here.
You realize that?
432
00:16:56,063 --> 00:16:57,932
Like, for once,
I want a politician to say,
433
00:16:58,032 --> 00:16:59,934
"I don't want to
go 30 years in the past.
434
00:17:00,034 --> 00:17:01,535
"I want to go 30 years
into the future,
435
00:17:01,635 --> 00:17:03,304
when there's no more flooding
436
00:17:03,404 --> 00:17:05,806
"because global warming
boiled off all the water!
437
00:17:05,906 --> 00:17:09,110
Aah! Aah!"
438
00:17:09,276 --> 00:17:10,578
But I'm not surprised
Rick Caruso
439
00:17:10,678 --> 00:17:11,846
wants to go back
30 years, though.
440
00:17:11,946 --> 00:17:14,148
Remember, he makes malls.
30 years ago
441
00:17:14,281 --> 00:17:16,283
was a great time
for mall developers.
442
00:17:16,384 --> 00:17:17,885
Yeah, back in the '90s,
you remember that?
443
00:17:17,985 --> 00:17:19,353
People spent all day
at the mall.
444
00:17:19,453 --> 00:17:21,288
You'd spend hours there,
shopping, eating,
445
00:17:21,389 --> 00:17:24,658
sitting in the massage chair
at The Sharper Image
446
00:17:24,759 --> 00:17:27,595
with no intention
of ever buying anything.
447
00:17:27,695 --> 00:17:29,430
But then you would
ask a lot of questions
448
00:17:29,530 --> 00:17:31,399
to make it seem like you might.
You'd just be like,
449
00:17:31,499 --> 00:17:34,101
"So, does-does it also do
the lower torso? Uh-huh? Yeah?
450
00:17:34,235 --> 00:17:36,537
"Oh. Oh, yeah.
And what's the power wattage?
451
00:17:36,637 --> 00:17:38,272
"Oh, okay, cool.
What-what time do you close?
452
00:17:38,372 --> 00:17:39,974
"You know, I'm gonna go and
grab-- I can't carry the ch--
453
00:17:40,074 --> 00:17:41,308
"I'll come back.
I'm ju-I'm-ju-
454
00:17:41,409 --> 00:17:42,576
"Yeah, I'll be ba--
I want to make sure
455
00:17:42,677 --> 00:17:44,245
"you get the commission.
Yeah, yeah, thank you,
456
00:17:44,278 --> 00:17:45,846
thank you very much,
thank you, thank you."
457
00:17:47,882 --> 00:17:49,850
Hard to believe that place
went out of business.
458
00:17:49,950 --> 00:17:52,086
So, billionaire Rick Caruso,
459
00:17:52,253 --> 00:17:55,956
a longtime Republican who turned
Democrat just for this election,
460
00:17:56,057 --> 00:17:58,926
is now running neck-and-neck
with a liberal politician
461
00:17:59,026 --> 00:18:00,594
everyone expected to win.
462
00:18:00,695 --> 00:18:02,830
And if you are wondering
how that could happen
463
00:18:02,930 --> 00:18:04,365
in Los Angeles,
a city so liberal
464
00:18:04,465 --> 00:18:06,300
you can legally
marry your electric car,
465
00:18:06,400 --> 00:18:08,502
well, it's because
466
00:18:08,602 --> 00:18:11,939
he has a ton of money
and a very clear message.
467
00:18:12,039 --> 00:18:14,442
The most expensive race
in the country,
468
00:18:14,542 --> 00:18:17,011
uh, Rick Caruso spending
more than any other candidate
469
00:18:17,111 --> 00:18:19,013
in any race anywhere.
470
00:18:19,113 --> 00:18:21,115
NEWSMAN: Rick Caruso
spent nearly $40 million,
471
00:18:21,215 --> 00:18:22,950
much of it his own money.
Meanwhile,
472
00:18:23,050 --> 00:18:24,685
Congresswoman Karen Bass
and the other candidates
473
00:18:24,785 --> 00:18:26,220
have spent very little.
474
00:18:26,320 --> 00:18:29,757
NEWSMAN 2: He's achieved air
supremacy on television spots,
475
00:18:29,857 --> 00:18:32,259
most of them focusing
on the top two issues
476
00:18:32,360 --> 00:18:34,662
voters care about,
according to the poll:
477
00:18:34,762 --> 00:18:36,731
crime and homelessness.
478
00:18:36,831 --> 00:18:40,735
ANNOUNCER: Murder up 54%.
Nearly 1,500 shooting victims.
479
00:18:40,835 --> 00:18:44,505
A wave of property crime.
There's one candidate for mayor
480
00:18:44,605 --> 00:18:52,680
who can turn it around.
Rick Caruso.
481
00:18:52,780 --> 00:18:53,714
NEWSMAN 3: Caruso's stance
on public safety is resonating,
482
00:18:53,814 --> 00:18:54,849
as he has four times
the support
483
00:18:54,949 --> 00:18:56,117
to address
the rise in crime over Bass.
484
00:18:56,250 --> 00:18:58,652
Normally, I would
vote for Karen Bass, but I think
485
00:18:58,753 --> 00:19:00,521
I'm leaning toward Caruso.
486
00:19:00,621 --> 00:19:03,758
NEWSWOMAN: Why? He thinks
the biggest issue in L.A. is...
487
00:19:03,858 --> 00:19:05,593
LACOUR: Getting
these people off the streets.
488
00:19:05,693 --> 00:19:07,361
NEWSWOMAN: And you think
Caruso will-will do that?
489
00:19:07,461 --> 00:19:08,529
Yeah.
490
00:19:08,629 --> 00:19:10,865
Yeah, that's right,
Caruso has surged
491
00:19:10,965 --> 00:19:13,634
to the top of the pack with
a focus on crime and especially
492
00:19:13,734 --> 00:19:17,371
homelessness, which
is a top concern of L.A. voters.
493
00:19:17,471 --> 00:19:18,773
And I guess, I mean,
it makes sense
494
00:19:18,873 --> 00:19:20,775
that they think the mall guy
can solve the problem.
495
00:19:20,875 --> 00:19:22,743
Malls solve a lot
of America's problems.
496
00:19:22,843 --> 00:19:25,946
Problems like how can we
get people to eat Sbarro's?
497
00:19:26,047 --> 00:19:27,448
-You know?
-(laughter and applause)
498
00:19:27,548 --> 00:19:28,916
And just to be clear,
just to be clear,
499
00:19:29,016 --> 00:19:30,885
Karen Bass also wants
to tackle homelessness,
500
00:19:30,985 --> 00:19:34,488
but Caruso has made it
the centerpiece of his campaign,
501
00:19:34,588 --> 00:19:37,925
spending a record
of nearly $40 million
502
00:19:38,025 --> 00:19:39,694
getting his message out.
503
00:19:39,794 --> 00:19:41,762
And we all know if you put
a lot of ads out there,
504
00:19:41,862 --> 00:19:43,297
your message is gonna get
into people's heads.
505
00:19:43,397 --> 00:19:45,933
You can't control it.
It's like those State Farm ads.
506
00:19:46,033 --> 00:19:48,235
You see them all the time,
all the time, all the time,
507
00:19:48,269 --> 00:19:50,438
and so it's inevitable
that sooner or later,
508
00:19:50,538 --> 00:19:51,772
I'm gonna start
having sex dreams
509
00:19:51,872 --> 00:19:53,974
about Jake from State Farm.
It's gonna happen.
510
00:19:54,075 --> 00:19:56,844
Yeah. Oh, judge... You judge me
like I'm the only one.
511
00:19:56,944 --> 00:19:58,679
(laughter and applause)
512
00:19:58,779 --> 00:20:02,116
Still better
than my GEICO dream.
513
00:20:02,249 --> 00:20:04,118
But...
514
00:20:04,251 --> 00:20:07,355
Even after being bombarded
by all of those ads,
515
00:20:07,455 --> 00:20:10,424
some L.A. voters
may still be a little wary
516
00:20:10,524 --> 00:20:12,593
of a guy
who has no political experience
517
00:20:12,693 --> 00:20:14,261
and might be
a closet Republican,
518
00:20:14,362 --> 00:20:17,031
which is why Caruso
has also brought out
519
00:20:17,198 --> 00:20:20,201
the one thing people in L.A.
trust more than anything else:
520
00:20:20,267 --> 00:20:21,869
celebrities.
521
00:20:21,969 --> 00:20:23,004
NEWSMAN:
Major celebrity endorsement
522
00:20:23,104 --> 00:20:24,338
in the race for L.A. mayor.
523
00:20:24,438 --> 00:20:26,974
Oscar winner and Goop founder
Gwyneth Paltrow
524
00:20:27,074 --> 00:20:28,209
throwing her support
525
00:20:28,309 --> 00:20:29,944
behind billionaire developer
Rick Caruso.
526
00:20:30,044 --> 00:20:33,214
L.A. is experiencing
a tough time right now.
527
00:20:33,314 --> 00:20:36,784
So that is why I am endorsing
my old friend Rick Caruso.
528
00:20:36,884 --> 00:20:38,719
NEWSMAN 2: Musician
and rap artist Snoop Dogg
529
00:20:38,819 --> 00:20:41,489
today endorsed
businessman Rick Caruso.
530
00:20:41,589 --> 00:20:44,058
There's no question. I endorse
the real, and that is real.
531
00:20:44,225 --> 00:20:45,326
The Latino vote
532
00:20:45,426 --> 00:20:47,661
is gonna be especially important
in this race.
533
00:20:47,762 --> 00:20:49,797
George Lopez, uh, the comedian,
534
00:20:49,897 --> 00:20:53,034
uh, coming out on Twitter,
backing Caruso.
535
00:20:53,134 --> 00:20:55,236
Rick Caruso
did get a big endorsement
536
00:20:55,269 --> 00:20:57,304
from a very familiar face.
537
00:20:57,405 --> 00:21:00,574
A blonde Kim Kardashian there
saying she believes Rick Caruso
538
00:21:00,675 --> 00:21:02,510
can help solve
L.A.'s crime crisis.
539
00:21:02,610 --> 00:21:05,346
If you guys are out voting, um,
540
00:21:05,446 --> 00:21:08,249
Rick Caruso is my choice,
541
00:21:08,315 --> 00:21:11,886
and I really believe
that he will make a difference,
542
00:21:11,986 --> 00:21:14,088
and that gives me hope.
543
00:21:14,255 --> 00:21:17,258
Did she say,
"If you guys are out voting"?
544
00:21:17,358 --> 00:21:20,561
That's-that's a fun way
to, like, campaign for someone.
545
00:21:20,661 --> 00:21:22,630
Like, it's almost like
she wants to endorse Caruso,
546
00:21:22,730 --> 00:21:24,432
but she doesn't want to come off
too strong, you know?
547
00:21:24,532 --> 00:21:27,268
She's like, "I'm not saying,
like, go vote for him,
548
00:21:27,368 --> 00:21:29,537
"but if you guys
happen to, like, pass,
549
00:21:29,637 --> 00:21:31,205
"like, a voting booth,
550
00:21:31,272 --> 00:21:34,608
"then I guess feel free to,
like, vote for him or whatever.
551
00:21:34,709 --> 00:21:36,277
Like..."
552
00:21:36,377 --> 00:21:38,379
(laughs) Like,
it's such a weird way to do it.
553
00:21:38,479 --> 00:21:40,514
(cheering and applause)
554
00:21:41,716 --> 00:21:43,951
Yeah, like, Kim Kardashian
is great at a lot of things,
555
00:21:44,051 --> 00:21:46,754
but I don't know if I'd ever
want her leading me into battle.
556
00:21:46,854 --> 00:21:48,889
Can you imagine that attitude
in Braveheart?
557
00:21:48,989 --> 00:21:50,725
"Sons of Scotland!
558
00:21:50,825 --> 00:21:54,995
"If you guys are gonna be, like,
fighting any wars today,
559
00:21:55,096 --> 00:21:58,399
"personally, I would fight
against the English,
560
00:21:58,499 --> 00:22:01,435
"because, like,
maybe they might take our lives,
561
00:22:01,535 --> 00:22:05,406
but maybe we shouldn't,
like, take our freedom, too!"
562
00:22:05,506 --> 00:22:07,541
(cheering and applause)
563
00:22:10,644 --> 00:22:13,748
So, thanks to Caruso's
huge spending advantage,
564
00:22:13,848 --> 00:22:15,616
his celebrity endorsements
and his focus
565
00:22:15,716 --> 00:22:18,419
on quality-of-life issues
for people who aren't homeless,
566
00:22:18,519 --> 00:22:21,689
this election looks like
it's going down to the wire.
567
00:22:21,789 --> 00:22:23,357
Now, it is a primary, yes.
568
00:22:23,457 --> 00:22:24,892
But here's the thing--
in California,
569
00:22:24,992 --> 00:22:28,496
if anyone wins 50%
of the vote in the primary,
570
00:22:28,596 --> 00:22:30,031
the race is automatically over.
571
00:22:30,197 --> 00:22:32,233
Yeah, that person
is the new mayor.
572
00:22:32,333 --> 00:22:35,636
So every vote is going to count.
573
00:22:35,736 --> 00:22:38,372
Which, if you listen
to L.A. voters,
574
00:22:38,472 --> 00:22:40,708
isn't necessarily a good thing.
575
00:22:40,808 --> 00:22:42,810
NEWSWOMAN: Despite
several high-profile debates
576
00:22:42,910 --> 00:22:45,046
and one candidate
running lots of ads...
577
00:22:45,212 --> 00:22:46,847
-I'm running for mayor.
-...people we interviewed
578
00:22:46,947 --> 00:22:50,317
in L.A. County struggled
to name a single candidate.
579
00:22:50,418 --> 00:22:52,386
Are you familiar
with the candidates for mayor?
580
00:22:52,486 --> 00:22:54,789
-Uh, I am not, unfortunately.
Sorry. -Me neither.
581
00:22:54,889 --> 00:22:56,857
Candidates, I'm not sure,
but I prefer the one
582
00:22:56,957 --> 00:22:58,626
that we have now. Newsom.
583
00:22:58,726 --> 00:23:01,228
-He's the governor. -Oh,
the governor? Oh, I'm sorry.
584
00:23:01,295 --> 00:23:03,230
Yeah, I don't know anything
about the mayor then.
585
00:23:03,264 --> 00:23:05,466
No, only Gavin probably, right?
(chuckles)
586
00:23:05,566 --> 00:23:07,001
-Gavin is the governor.
-Oh, he's the governor?
587
00:23:07,101 --> 00:23:08,803
Oh, mayor? No. See? I'm way off.
588
00:23:08,903 --> 00:23:10,571
Do you like the current mayor?
589
00:23:10,671 --> 00:23:12,573
Gavin Newsom?
590
00:23:12,673 --> 00:23:14,241
Or-- See? You guys.
591
00:23:14,342 --> 00:23:16,177
(laughing)
592
00:23:16,210 --> 00:23:17,178
I'm sorry.
593
00:23:17,244 --> 00:23:18,612
Damn.
594
00:23:18,713 --> 00:23:20,281
Forget knowing
who's running for mayor.
595
00:23:20,381 --> 00:23:22,283
A lot of people in Los Angeles
don't even seem to know
596
00:23:22,383 --> 00:23:24,285
that there is a mayor?
597
00:23:26,187 --> 00:23:28,823
Like, I thought $40 million in
ads sounded like a lot before,
598
00:23:28,923 --> 00:23:31,192
but now I'm thinking
it's not enough. Like...
599
00:23:31,258 --> 00:23:32,626
And-and forget just TV ads.
600
00:23:32,727 --> 00:23:34,395
I feel like Caruso
should probably be doing most
601
00:23:34,495 --> 00:23:37,231
of his advertising on rolling
papers, judging by those people.
602
00:23:37,331 --> 00:23:38,866
It's just like, "Caruso for--
603
00:23:38,966 --> 00:23:40,434
Oh. Oh, boy."
604
00:23:40,534 --> 00:23:41,802
(laughter, applause)
605
00:23:41,902 --> 00:23:43,504
So...
606
00:23:44,638 --> 00:23:45,940
That right there
607
00:23:46,040 --> 00:23:48,209
is the current state of the race
for mayor in Los Angeles--
608
00:23:48,309 --> 00:23:51,012
a lifelong politician going up
against a lifelong businessman.
609
00:23:51,112 --> 00:23:52,680
And I'm not gonna tell you
who to vote for,
610
00:23:52,780 --> 00:23:54,315
but, at the very least,
611
00:23:54,415 --> 00:23:56,384
if you guys are gonna vote,
612
00:23:56,484 --> 00:23:59,553
I would say definitely make sure
that you're voting for the mayor
613
00:23:59,653 --> 00:24:02,089
and not the governor
who already has a job.
614
00:24:02,223 --> 00:24:03,491
All right, stay tuned.
615
00:24:03,591 --> 00:24:05,726
After the break, we're gonna be
joined by Bobby Brown.
616
00:24:05,826 --> 00:24:07,128
You don't want to miss it.
617
00:24:07,228 --> 00:24:09,263
-(chuckles)
-(cheering and applause)
618
00:24:17,832 --> 00:24:19,867
(applause and cheering)
619
00:24:23,371 --> 00:24:24,906
Welcome back to
The Daily Show.
620
00:24:25,006 --> 00:24:27,742
My guest tonight is
R&B legend Bobby Brown.
621
00:24:27,842 --> 00:24:30,678
He's here to talk about
his eventful life and career,
622
00:24:30,778 --> 00:24:34,382
as well as the new show
Bobby Brown: Every Little Step.
623
00:24:34,482 --> 00:24:38,920
I was probably
the premier dancer in Boston.
624
00:24:39,020 --> 00:24:40,555
I won many battles.
625
00:24:40,655 --> 00:24:42,924
I see myself in Cassius
626
00:24:43,024 --> 00:24:45,026
so much when he dances because
627
00:24:45,126 --> 00:24:49,230
he has these long legs,
and I had the same long legs.
628
00:24:49,330 --> 00:24:50,765
And he's just incredible.
629
00:24:50,865 --> 00:24:55,803
But I think Cassius taking
ballroom is beneficial because
630
00:24:55,903 --> 00:24:57,472
he wants to do plays,
musical theater.
631
00:24:57,572 --> 00:25:00,408
And I want him to be all around.
632
00:25:00,508 --> 00:25:02,410
Please welcome Bobby Brown.
633
00:25:02,510 --> 00:25:04,545
-(applause and cheering)
-♪ ♪
634
00:25:09,417 --> 00:25:11,586
-(mumbles)
-Thank you.
635
00:25:20,061 --> 00:25:21,596
-How you doing?
-Mr. Bobby Brown.
636
00:25:21,696 --> 00:25:22,997
How you doing?
637
00:25:23,097 --> 00:25:25,033
-The man, the myth, the legend.
-(laughing): Yeah.
638
00:25:25,133 --> 00:25:28,803
There are few people who have
had more of an impact on society
639
00:25:28,903 --> 00:25:31,039
and just, like, culture
as a whole as you have.
640
00:25:31,139 --> 00:25:32,373
You know, I was listening
641
00:25:32,473 --> 00:25:33,975
to your discography
just before coming.
642
00:25:34,075 --> 00:25:35,376
I was like, "This is wild."
643
00:25:35,476 --> 00:25:37,378
You just... you just made
the music of lifetimes.
644
00:25:37,478 --> 00:25:39,447
-Oh, thank you. I appreciate it.
-Does that ever sink in
645
00:25:39,547 --> 00:25:41,115
for you sometimes when you just
realize, like, you...
646
00:25:41,215 --> 00:25:43,317
how many children were made
to your music?
647
00:25:43,418 --> 00:25:45,253
-Ah. (laughs)
-(laughter)
648
00:25:45,353 --> 00:25:48,189
Now that you say it that way.
649
00:25:48,289 --> 00:25:51,426
Yeah, kind of...
kind of, uh, jars the mind.
650
00:25:51,526 --> 00:25:53,094
-Right? Right? It's-it's...
-Yeah.
651
00:25:53,194 --> 00:25:56,064
You know, your, um...
your biography just came out,
652
00:25:56,164 --> 00:25:59,233
-you know, documentary
about your life. -Yes.
653
00:25:59,334 --> 00:26:01,736
And one thing that really
struck me about this story--
654
00:26:01,836 --> 00:26:03,671
and you've been really candid
over the past few years.
655
00:26:03,771 --> 00:26:05,440
You know, you wrote your memoir.
656
00:26:05,540 --> 00:26:06,808
You've released this biography.
657
00:26:06,941 --> 00:26:08,509
You've got this story
about your family now.
658
00:26:08,609 --> 00:26:11,112
-Is how little we knew about you
-Mm-hmm.
659
00:26:11,212 --> 00:26:14,615
...and how much we knew
about the little that we knew.
660
00:26:14,716 --> 00:26:16,884
-Right. -You know, we know
Bobby Brown in one dimension,
661
00:26:16,951 --> 00:26:19,487
the bad boy. You know, we know
about all the terrible things
662
00:26:19,587 --> 00:26:22,323
that happened in life,
but it feels like sometimes,
663
00:26:22,423 --> 00:26:24,359
the context wasn't there.
664
00:26:24,459 --> 00:26:25,993
You know, it wasn't,
"Bobby Brown made a mistake."
665
00:26:26,094 --> 00:26:27,729
It was, "Bobby Brown
is just a bad person."
666
00:26:27,895 --> 00:26:29,130
Do you feel like
now there's more
667
00:26:29,230 --> 00:26:31,099
-of a vindication happening
in your life? -Well,
668
00:26:31,199 --> 00:26:35,436
yes, um, I got a chance
to explain myself,
669
00:26:35,536 --> 00:26:37,305
to speak about myself.
670
00:26:37,405 --> 00:26:41,275
Um, that's what the, you know,
documentary was about.
671
00:26:41,376 --> 00:26:45,947
It was about me getting, um,
the chance to speak, you know,
672
00:26:46,047 --> 00:26:48,449
um, clearly and truthfully
673
00:26:48,549 --> 00:26:51,052
-about everything in my life.
-Right.
674
00:26:51,152 --> 00:26:53,321
And, um, I'm glad I did it.
675
00:26:53,421 --> 00:26:55,289
You've-you've had an
eventful life as well, you know?
676
00:26:55,390 --> 00:26:57,225
Oh, yeah. We've-we've
lived some of it with you
677
00:26:57,325 --> 00:27:00,128
from the outside, you know,
with-with misinformed opinions.
678
00:27:00,228 --> 00:27:02,497
What would you say is one of
the biggest misconceptions
679
00:27:02,597 --> 00:27:04,932
about you,
as Bobby Brown the man,
680
00:27:04,999 --> 00:27:07,969
that you wish people knew
about you as a person?
681
00:27:08,069 --> 00:27:11,539
Uh... that
I'm-I'm just a softie.
682
00:27:11,639 --> 00:27:13,274
I'm really not--
683
00:27:13,374 --> 00:27:15,943
I'm really not a bad boy.
684
00:27:15,977 --> 00:27:17,912
Um... onstage,
685
00:27:18,012 --> 00:27:21,249
-Now, onstage, I'm a bad boy.
-Oh, okay, okay.
686
00:27:21,349 --> 00:27:22,884
BROWN: Onstage,
I'm a bad boy, but offstage,
687
00:27:22,950 --> 00:27:24,886
I'm really quiet.
688
00:27:24,986 --> 00:27:26,120
You-you, uh, you're back onsta--
689
00:27:26,220 --> 00:27:28,122
Congratulations. It was,
uh, 30... 30 tour dates?
690
00:27:28,222 --> 00:27:30,358
-30 tour dates, yeah,
-Congratulations
691
00:27:30,458 --> 00:27:32,193
-with New Edition, yeah.
-on that.
692
00:27:32,293 --> 00:27:34,595
-Sold out. Sold out.
-New Edition-- Sold out as well.
693
00:27:34,696 --> 00:27:36,898
-Sold out, as well, yeah.
-That must have been
694
00:27:36,931 --> 00:27:39,567
quite a journey for you,
because, I mean, when you
695
00:27:39,667 --> 00:27:42,170
started out, how old were
you guys for your first tour?
696
00:27:42,270 --> 00:27:44,072
-14.
-14 years old.
697
00:27:44,172 --> 00:27:47,408
-40 years ago. Yeah.
-That is wild.
698
00:27:47,508 --> 00:27:49,110
-That is really, really wild.
-40 years ago.
699
00:27:49,210 --> 00:27:50,411
Is there, like, a change, now,
700
00:27:50,511 --> 00:27:52,447
when you're performing,
can you feel it?
701
00:27:52,547 --> 00:27:55,550
Uh... now it's a job.
702
00:27:55,650 --> 00:27:57,919
-It's a job?
-It's a job now.
703
00:27:57,952 --> 00:27:59,587
Before, it was just,
you know, fun.
704
00:27:59,687 --> 00:28:01,222
-Right, right. -It was just
like, you know, we just
705
00:28:01,322 --> 00:28:04,258
loved being on stage.
But now it's work, you know.
706
00:28:04,359 --> 00:28:06,761
You got to have a lot
of Bengay after the show.
707
00:28:06,928 --> 00:28:09,030
(both laughing)
708
00:28:11,165 --> 00:28:13,001
A lot of Icy Hot.
709
00:28:15,069 --> 00:28:19,173
You know, what I-what I love
about the tour is the story.
710
00:28:19,273 --> 00:28:22,176
Um... and what I mean
by "the story"--
711
00:28:22,276 --> 00:28:24,479
it's-it's the fullness
of your story.
712
00:28:24,579 --> 00:28:27,882
You know, Bobby Brown
is somebody who's given people
713
00:28:27,949 --> 00:28:29,884
a lot of joy, and then
has also experienced
714
00:28:29,917 --> 00:28:31,619
-a lot of grief and sadness,
you know? -Yes.
715
00:28:31,719 --> 00:28:33,921
You-You've never
claimed to be a saint.
716
00:28:34,022 --> 00:28:35,356
You know, you've gone-you've
gone through your moments
717
00:28:35,456 --> 00:28:37,525
where you have to be accountable
for your actions.
718
00:28:37,625 --> 00:28:39,761
But one thing I feel that's
different now in the world
719
00:28:39,894 --> 00:28:42,263
-is how people
deal with addiction. -Yeah.
720
00:28:42,363 --> 00:28:44,098
And you've really
been open about your journey
721
00:28:44,198 --> 00:28:45,466
to s-- you know,
to staying sober.
722
00:28:45,566 --> 00:28:47,468
You-You've talked about
how hard it is.
723
00:28:47,568 --> 00:28:49,570
You've talked about
how much you work at it.
724
00:28:49,671 --> 00:28:51,272
Why did you open up
and do you feel that people
725
00:28:51,372 --> 00:28:54,275
accept your story or-or
see you slightly different now?
726
00:28:54,375 --> 00:28:56,344
Well, it's a everyday...
everyday job, you know?
727
00:28:56,444 --> 00:28:59,681
It's a everyday situation.
Um, I work hard
728
00:28:59,781 --> 00:29:02,483
at, every day, not
picking up a drink, you know?
729
00:29:02,583 --> 00:29:05,653
Um, that's something
that I've have been,
730
00:29:05,753 --> 00:29:08,523
uh, working on for years,
you know?
731
00:29:08,623 --> 00:29:10,992
And, Um, just recently,
732
00:29:11,092 --> 00:29:13,628
finding the love of my life,
my wife,
733
00:29:13,728 --> 00:29:17,365
and having all these
new kids, um,
734
00:29:17,465 --> 00:29:21,569
-it's just something that, um,
I feel-- -(scattered laughter)
735
00:29:21,669 --> 00:29:24,672
-Why'd you laugh? (laughs)
-(laughs)
736
00:29:24,772 --> 00:29:28,109
Um, it's something
that I have to do, you know,
737
00:29:28,209 --> 00:29:29,877
-for myself and for my family.
-Yeah.
738
00:29:29,977 --> 00:29:31,713
You know? And it makes me
feel good, you know?
739
00:29:31,879 --> 00:29:33,247
-I've... -We see that...
We see that on the show.
740
00:29:33,348 --> 00:29:35,717
You-you have a...
741
00:29:35,883 --> 00:29:38,519
a joy that can only come
from a certain place.
742
00:29:38,619 --> 00:29:41,255
You have a newfound love
in your life.
743
00:29:41,356 --> 00:29:43,024
-Yes.
-How did you deal
744
00:29:43,124 --> 00:29:44,992
with a lot of the grief
that you experienced?
745
00:29:45,093 --> 00:29:47,395
You know, you were somebody
who lost, uh, you know,
746
00:29:47,495 --> 00:29:49,230
an ex-wife who you loved,
who the world loved.
747
00:29:49,330 --> 00:29:50,665
-Yeah. -You know,
you're somebody who suffered
748
00:29:50,765 --> 00:29:52,800
the loss of two children,
I think something no parent
749
00:29:52,900 --> 00:29:54,802
ever wants to go through
nor can imagine going through.
750
00:29:54,902 --> 00:29:56,804
-Mm-mm. I don't wish that
on anybody. -Right, right.
751
00:29:56,904 --> 00:30:00,141
And-and you have had to learn
how to find life
752
00:30:00,241 --> 00:30:01,909
-on the other side of grief.
-Mm-hmm.
753
00:30:02,010 --> 00:30:03,211
How did you do that,
754
00:30:03,311 --> 00:30:05,313
and how do you continuously try
to do that?
755
00:30:05,413 --> 00:30:08,649
Lots of prayer. Lots of therapy.
756
00:30:08,750 --> 00:30:12,520
Um, I'm in therapy, you know,
at least twice a week.
757
00:30:12,620 --> 00:30:14,222
Um...
758
00:30:14,322 --> 00:30:17,358
And praying. Praying
and the love of my family,
759
00:30:17,458 --> 00:30:19,360
the love of my wife and my kids.
760
00:30:19,460 --> 00:30:22,697
Um, they...
That just does it for me.
761
00:30:22,864 --> 00:30:24,165
It really feels
like it's made a difference.
762
00:30:24,265 --> 00:30:26,034
You know, seeing you...
I-In the biography,
763
00:30:26,134 --> 00:30:28,603
you know, we see you
with-with your old group.
764
00:30:28,703 --> 00:30:30,204
-You know, you see New Edition
back together. -Mm-hmm.
765
00:30:30,304 --> 00:30:31,572
I even love the moments
where some...
766
00:30:31,673 --> 00:30:32,940
You know, there's one part
767
00:30:33,041 --> 00:30:34,609
where I think it's DeVoe
who says to you, he goes...
768
00:30:34,709 --> 00:30:36,511
He's like, "Man, remember how...
what an asshole you were
769
00:30:36,611 --> 00:30:38,179
-on this tour?" And you guys...
-(laughing)
770
00:30:38,279 --> 00:30:39,714
And you guys laugh about it,
and you share,
771
00:30:39,881 --> 00:30:43,184
and it feels like you-you've
all grown. You've all matured.
772
00:30:43,284 --> 00:30:44,886
-Yes. -I mean,
I know you-you both share a bond
773
00:30:44,986 --> 00:30:46,554
in-in, you know,
in becoming sober,
774
00:30:46,654 --> 00:30:49,090
but if you could go back...
775
00:30:49,190 --> 00:30:50,958
I mean, obviously, life has
happened the way it's happened.
776
00:30:51,059 --> 00:30:52,560
-Mm.
-But if there's one small thing
777
00:30:52,660 --> 00:30:53,728
at the beginning of your career
778
00:30:53,895 --> 00:30:55,063
that you could have said
to Bobby Brown,
779
00:30:55,163 --> 00:30:56,631
"Hey, watch out for this,"
what would it have been?
780
00:30:56,731 --> 00:31:00,134
Um, I would just tell myself
to take my time,
781
00:31:00,234 --> 00:31:02,570
-because I grew up way too fast.
-Mm.
782
00:31:02,670 --> 00:31:05,239
Um, being 14
and being on the road,
783
00:31:05,340 --> 00:31:08,009
being away from your family,
you get into things.
784
00:31:08,109 --> 00:31:10,511
-Right. -Especially as a child,
you know?
785
00:31:10,611 --> 00:31:13,448
Um, I got
into way too many things
786
00:31:13,548 --> 00:31:16,417
too quickly in life,
and, uh, I'm just...
787
00:31:16,517 --> 00:31:19,120
You know, I'm-I'm not...
788
00:31:19,220 --> 00:31:20,755
I'm not mad about it
789
00:31:20,855 --> 00:31:23,024
because I wouldn't be
the man that I am today
790
00:31:23,124 --> 00:31:24,759
without experiencing
791
00:31:24,859 --> 00:31:26,594
all of the things
that I've experienced.
792
00:31:26,694 --> 00:31:29,664
But, um,
I'm just grateful today,
793
00:31:29,764 --> 00:31:31,466
you know, and that's the plus.
794
00:31:31,566 --> 00:31:32,967
It is a plus.
795
00:31:33,067 --> 00:31:34,869
It's good to have you here
to talk to you, you know?
796
00:31:34,902 --> 00:31:36,237
-Yes.
-It's good to see you.
797
00:31:36,337 --> 00:31:37,872
It's good to see you living,
enjoying your family.
798
00:31:37,972 --> 00:31:41,609
So, what-what's your hope
for the future, then?
799
00:31:41,709 --> 00:31:43,544
You know, Bobby Brown,
I feel like we've seen
800
00:31:43,644 --> 00:31:45,480
have maybe two to three
801
00:31:45,580 --> 00:31:47,348
different, you know,
phases of your life,
802
00:31:47,448 --> 00:31:48,916
which everyone has
in different ways.
803
00:31:49,017 --> 00:31:51,185
-Right. -You know, we've seen
the young Bobby Brown.
804
00:31:51,285 --> 00:31:52,887
Well, I wasn't born,
but you know what I mean.
805
00:31:52,920 --> 00:31:55,556
-Um, we've-we've seen...
-(laughing)
806
00:31:55,656 --> 00:31:57,592
-We've seen... (laughs)
-Wow, that...
807
00:31:57,692 --> 00:31:59,360
-(laughing)
-No.
808
00:31:59,460 --> 00:32:01,129
You know, I don't want to act
like I was there.
809
00:32:01,229 --> 00:32:02,397
I don't want to act like I was--
But I'm saying,
810
00:32:02,497 --> 00:32:03,731
you know, we've seen
that Bobby Brown.
811
00:32:03,898 --> 00:32:05,166
We've seen Bobby Brown
go through the tumultuous times.
812
00:32:05,266 --> 00:32:07,268
Now we're seeing this
Bobby Brown-- therapy, prayer,
813
00:32:07,368 --> 00:32:10,138
family that-- you know, everyone
who sees you sees that love.
814
00:32:10,238 --> 00:32:12,173
What do you hope this-this
next chapter in your life
815
00:32:12,273 --> 00:32:13,274
will be all about?
816
00:32:13,374 --> 00:32:14,742
Uh, just positivity.
817
00:32:14,909 --> 00:32:17,478
-Mm. -You know?
Just positive things going on.
818
00:32:17,578 --> 00:32:19,681
I just want to, uh,
819
00:32:19,847 --> 00:32:22,350
go about life with, um...
820
00:32:22,450 --> 00:32:25,420
-Yeah. Just positive. You know?
-Right, right.
821
00:32:25,520 --> 00:32:29,323
Long as I keep myself surrounded
by positive people,
822
00:32:29,424 --> 00:32:31,359
I'll be positive, so...
823
00:32:31,459 --> 00:32:33,227
I just want the positivity
in my life.
824
00:32:33,327 --> 00:32:34,962
And you bring that into
people's lives as well, man.
825
00:32:35,063 --> 00:32:36,464
Thank you. Congratulations
on your journey.
826
00:32:36,564 --> 00:32:37,765
-Thank you so much.
-For real, man.
827
00:32:37,865 --> 00:32:39,200
-I appreciate you.
-Congrats on what you've done.
828
00:32:39,300 --> 00:32:41,336
-You got it. -Keep going--
every single day, Bobby.
829
00:32:41,436 --> 00:32:42,937
-All right, brother. -We want
to keep you around, man.
830
00:32:43,037 --> 00:32:44,138
-All right.
-Every single day.

the economic security

if someone sends you a missile,
be the bigger person
851
00:33:39,423 --> 00:33:41,024
and respond with an atom bomb.
852

Now here it is,
Your Moment of Zen.
