00:00:01,502 --> 00:00:03,570
ANNOUNCER: Coming to you
from New York City,
2
00:00:03,670 --> 00:00:07,508
the only city in America,
it's The Daily Show.
3
00:00:07,608 --> 00:00:12,045
Tonight-- Europe is melting,
4
00:00:12,145 --> 00:00:13,881
the fist bump heard
'round the world,
5
00:00:13,981 --> 00:00:16,617
and Terri Jackson.
6
00:00:16,717 --> 00:00:21,321
This is
The Daily Show with Trevor Noah.
7
00:00:21,421 --> 00:00:24,691
(cheers and applause)
8
00:00:33,500 --> 00:00:34,935
What's going on, everybody?
9
00:00:35,035 --> 00:00:36,470
Welcome to The Daily Show.
I'm Trevor Noah.
10
00:00:36,570 --> 00:00:37,938
Thank you so much for tuning in.
11
00:00:38,038 --> 00:00:39,940
Thank you for coming out
in person.
12
00:00:40,040 --> 00:00:42,209
Look at this. Wow, wow.
13
00:00:42,309 --> 00:00:44,878
Oh, wow. Thank you.
Take a seat, everybody.
14
00:00:44,978 --> 00:00:46,680
Thank you so much.
This is going to be fun.
15
00:00:46,780 --> 00:00:48,715
This is going to be fun.
Take a seat. Take a seat.
16
00:00:48,815 --> 00:00:51,251
We have got a great show
for you tonight.
17
00:00:51,351 --> 00:00:52,786
Europe is feeling the heat,
18
00:00:52,886 --> 00:00:55,222
Dulcé Sloan tries
to make you late for work,
19
00:00:55,322 --> 00:00:57,558
and President Joe Biden
is hoping to fist his way
20
00:00:57,658 --> 00:00:59,560
-to a higher approval rating.
-(laughter)
21
00:00:59,660 --> 00:01:00,994
So, let's do this, people.
22
00:01:01,094 --> 00:01:03,030
Let's jump straight
into today's headlines.
23
00:01:03,130 --> 00:01:05,299
-♪ ♪
-(applause and cheering)
24
00:01:08,969 --> 00:01:11,972
Okay, let's kick things off
with Europe,
25
00:01:12,072 --> 00:01:13,707
the continent
with a long history
26
00:01:13,807 --> 00:01:15,576
of white-on-white violence.
27
00:01:15,676 --> 00:01:18,545
Unfortunately, Europe is not
having a good time right now.
28
00:01:18,645 --> 00:01:20,113
There's still a war in Ukraine,
29
00:01:20,214 --> 00:01:22,382
which is also causing
an energy crisis.
30
00:01:22,482 --> 00:01:24,451
Italy's prime minister
has called it quits.
31
00:01:24,551 --> 00:01:26,687
Britain has lost its leadership,
which means
32
00:01:26,787 --> 00:01:28,121
now they'll have
to find another magic spell
33
00:01:28,222 --> 00:01:30,023
to turn a dandelion
into a prime minister.
34
00:01:30,123 --> 00:01:32,860
Plus, for the first time ever,
35
00:01:32,960 --> 00:01:36,897
the Euro has become
less valuable than the dollar.
36
00:01:36,997 --> 00:01:39,266
Yeah. And with the economy
struggling,
37
00:01:39,366 --> 00:01:41,134
European workers are now limited
38
00:01:41,235 --> 00:01:43,737
-to only 45 weeks
of vacation a year. -(laughter)
39
00:01:43,837 --> 00:01:46,473
And as if all of that
wasn't enough,
40
00:01:46,573 --> 00:01:48,842
now Europe is dealing
with a hot girl summer
41
00:01:48,942 --> 00:01:50,477
that nobody asked for.
42
00:01:50,577 --> 00:01:53,680
The triple-digit temperatures
that have sparked forest fires
43
00:01:53,780 --> 00:01:55,716
and drought conditions
here in the States
44
00:01:55,816 --> 00:01:58,218
are also taking hold
in Europe.
45
00:01:58,318 --> 00:02:00,754
NEWSWOMAN: This morning,
people are being warned to take
46
00:02:00,854 --> 00:02:03,490
cover as deadly heat sweeps
across Britain.
47
00:02:03,590 --> 00:02:06,026
The National Weather Service
issuing the first ever
48
00:02:06,126 --> 00:02:07,494
extreme heat warning,
49
00:02:07,594 --> 00:02:11,164
with forecast highs of 105
today and tomorrow.
50
00:02:11,265 --> 00:02:13,967
Hotter than the Sahara Desert
and Delhi.
51
00:02:14,067 --> 00:02:17,671
The scorching heat is bearing
down on all of Western Europe,
52
00:02:17,771 --> 00:02:20,107
fueling
out-of-control wildfires.
53
00:02:20,207 --> 00:02:23,010
NEWSMAN 2: In Southwest France
planes dumped yet more water
54
00:02:23,110 --> 00:02:25,612
over wildfires
that have burned an area bigger
55
00:02:25,712 --> 00:02:27,714
than 20,000 football fields.
56
00:02:27,814 --> 00:02:29,650
The heat is causing havoc.
57
00:02:29,750 --> 00:02:31,285
London's Luton Airport
58
00:02:31,385 --> 00:02:33,787
and an RAF base
in Oxfordshire both being forced
59
00:02:33,887 --> 00:02:37,691
to close because
the runways were melting.
60
00:02:37,791 --> 00:02:39,593
(Italian accent):
Mamma mia!
61
00:02:39,693 --> 00:02:40,928
(French accent):
Sacrebleu!
62
00:02:41,028 --> 00:02:42,930
(English accent):
Bloody ball sweat!
63
00:02:43,030 --> 00:02:45,699
The runways in Europe
are melting. Did you hear that?
64
00:02:45,799 --> 00:02:47,734
The runways are melting.
65
00:02:47,835 --> 00:02:49,770
You never want to land a plane
and here it go,
66
00:02:49,870 --> 00:02:53,740
"Aah! Aah! Aah! Aah!
Aah! Aah! Aah! Aah! Aah! Aah!"
67
00:02:53,841 --> 00:02:55,409
And what do you even do
in that situation?
68
00:02:55,509 --> 00:02:57,010
What do you do?
69
00:02:57,110 --> 00:02:59,780
Like, if the runway's melted,
where is the plane gonna land?
70
00:02:59,880 --> 00:03:02,616
In the baby's mouth?
That's right. Open up, baby.
71
00:03:02,716 --> 00:03:04,985
Please, baby.
The plane needs you, baby.
72
00:03:05,085 --> 00:03:07,821
-Ah.
-(applause and cheering)
73
00:03:07,921 --> 00:03:11,024
You know, this is one
of those situations
74
00:03:11,124 --> 00:03:14,895
where you really appreciate
how calm a pilot is, you know?
75
00:03:14,995 --> 00:03:17,064
'Cause, like, even when
a runway's melting, I bet
76
00:03:17,164 --> 00:03:18,665
the pilot's just gonna be there
like, "Ladies and gentlemen,
77
00:03:18,765 --> 00:03:21,301
"it seems the airport is melting
into the ground, so, uh,
78
00:03:21,401 --> 00:03:23,604
"I'm going to suggest everyone
get back to their seats.
79
00:03:23,704 --> 00:03:25,472
"Uh, hold on.
Now it seems like a portal
80
00:03:25,572 --> 00:03:26,874
"to the underworld is opened,
81
00:03:26,974 --> 00:03:30,143
"and we are slowly being
sucked by the devil himself.
82
00:03:30,244 --> 00:03:31,478
"So, uh, I'm gonna go ahead
83
00:03:31,578 --> 00:03:33,080
and turn on
the fasten seat belt sign."
84
00:03:33,180 --> 00:03:34,848
(laughter)
85
00:03:34,948 --> 00:03:37,184
"Sit back, relax
and enjoy the flight."
86
00:03:37,284 --> 00:03:40,087
But, yes, Europe is
scorching hot right now.
87
00:03:40,187 --> 00:03:42,756
And it's so bad that there were
photos going around today
88
00:03:42,856 --> 00:03:45,759
of people pouring water
in the mouths of the guards
89
00:03:45,859 --> 00:03:47,361
-at Buckingham Palace. Yeah.
-(sighing)
90
00:03:47,461 --> 00:03:50,430
I mean if I had
to make a suggestion, though,
91
00:03:50,531 --> 00:03:52,366
maybe the first thing
I would do in a heat wave
92
00:03:52,466 --> 00:03:57,604
is lose the ten-foot hat
covered entirely in fur?
93
00:03:57,704 --> 00:03:58,972
Or at least fill it with ice.
94
00:03:59,072 --> 00:04:01,441
It looks like it would be
a good cooler, you know?
95
00:04:01,542 --> 00:04:03,210
And remember, remember,
96
00:04:03,310 --> 00:04:04,878
you might be hearing those
temperatures in America going,
97
00:04:04,978 --> 00:04:06,847
like, "Oh, 100 degrees.
That doesn't sound bad."
98
00:04:06,947 --> 00:04:09,783
But remember, this heat wave is
especially bad for Europe
99
00:04:09,883 --> 00:04:12,386
because Europeans are not
prepared for this kind of heat.
100
00:04:12,486 --> 00:04:13,854
Yeah. They don't use
air conditioners
101
00:04:13,954 --> 00:04:15,189
in most parts of Europe.
102
00:04:15,289 --> 00:04:16,790
They don't even put ice
in their drinks.
103
00:04:16,890 --> 00:04:19,626
And they can get sunburned
from, like, a camera flash.
104
00:04:19,726 --> 00:04:22,963
"Aah! Aah! Aah! Aah!
Aah! Aah! Aah! Aah!
105
00:04:23,063 --> 00:04:25,299
So how do I look?"
106
00:04:25,399 --> 00:04:27,835
So, once again,
all over the world,
107
00:04:27,935 --> 00:04:30,003
we're experiencing
record temperatures,
108
00:04:30,103 --> 00:04:32,873
wildfires and droughts.
109
00:04:32,973 --> 00:04:35,008
And I mean, I know
it can't be climate change
110
00:04:35,108 --> 00:04:37,077
'cause Fox says
that's not real.
111
00:04:37,177 --> 00:04:41,582
So it's probably pronouns?
Is it pronouns?
112
00:04:41,682 --> 00:04:43,150
I heard those were pretty bad.
113
00:04:43,250 --> 00:04:44,952
Anyway, let's move on
from Europe to another place
114
00:04:45,052 --> 00:04:47,487
that's feeling the heat--
the White House.
115
00:04:47,588 --> 00:04:49,223
After being unable
to accomplish anything
116
00:04:49,323 --> 00:04:50,824
that Joe Biden
has campaigned on,
117
00:04:50,924 --> 00:04:53,927
the president's approval rating
is now hovering
118
00:04:54,027 --> 00:04:57,598
somewhere between long COVID
and Uvalde Police Department.
119
00:04:57,698 --> 00:05:02,169
And making matters worse for him
is a runaway inflation, right?
120
00:05:02,269 --> 00:05:04,271
Especially when it comes
to gas prices.
121
00:05:04,371 --> 00:05:05,906
The prices of gas are so high
122
00:05:06,006 --> 00:05:09,443
that these days driving is
the entire date, you know,
123
00:05:09,543 --> 00:05:12,379
just like, "He really
spoiled me last night.
124
00:05:12,479 --> 00:05:14,414
"We, we drove all the way
from my house
125
00:05:14,515 --> 00:05:15,449
"to the end of the block.
126
00:05:15,549 --> 00:05:16,984
"Oh!
127
00:05:17,084 --> 00:05:20,621
He's so romantic."
128
00:05:20,721 --> 00:05:21,688
But here's the thing,
here's the thing.
129
00:05:21,788 --> 00:05:24,291
Until gas prices improve,
130
00:05:24,391 --> 00:05:27,394
neither will... Joe Biden's
approval rating, right,
131
00:05:27,494 --> 00:05:31,098
which is why over the weekend he
was in Saudi Arabia making nice
132
00:05:31,198 --> 00:05:34,868
with a frenemy who just happens
to own a lot of oil.
133
00:05:34,968 --> 00:05:37,171
NEWSWOMAN: It was the fist bump
seen around the world.
134
00:05:37,271 --> 00:05:41,175
The president with Saudi Crown
Prince Mohammed bin Salman,
135
00:05:41,275 --> 00:05:43,777
the man
the U.S. holds responsible
136
00:05:43,877 --> 00:05:47,614
for the murder
of journalist Jamal Khashoggi.
137
00:05:47,714 --> 00:05:49,983
NEWSWOMAN 2: It's the image
the Saudis had hoped for
138
00:05:50,083 --> 00:05:52,219
and the White House
had hoped to avoid.
139
00:05:52,319 --> 00:05:54,788
Biden's doctors reportedly
disallowed handshakes
140
00:05:54,888 --> 00:05:58,192
due to COVID but conveniently
also helped the president avoid
141
00:05:58,292 --> 00:06:01,528
a photo op of shaking the hand
of the crown prince.
142
00:06:06,166 --> 00:06:09,036
Yeah! Yeah!
143
00:06:09,136 --> 00:06:11,839
Stop asking him
about the fist bump.
144
00:06:11,939 --> 00:06:13,440
Ask him
about the looming recession.
145
00:06:13,540 --> 00:06:14,808
"No, actually, just ask me
about the fist bump,
146
00:06:14,908 --> 00:06:16,743
ask me about the fist bump."
147
00:06:16,844 --> 00:06:18,645
(laughs) America obsesses
about these things.
148
00:06:18,745 --> 00:06:20,380
"No, don't look too friendly,
don't..."
149
00:06:20,480 --> 00:06:22,583
It's also funny
how President Biden thought
150
00:06:22,683 --> 00:06:25,786
it would be better
to fist-bump Mohammed bin Salman
151
00:06:25,886 --> 00:06:28,722
because that seems
less friendly than a handshake?
152
00:06:29,756 --> 00:06:32,059
That's the whitest decision
of all time.
153
00:06:32,159 --> 00:06:33,493
No, 'cause it's the opposite.
154
00:06:33,594 --> 00:06:35,529
Handshakes are the most
formal way to meet someone,
155
00:06:35,629 --> 00:06:36,530
even your enemy.
156
00:06:36,630 --> 00:06:38,632
You can be like, "Hello."
157
00:06:38,732 --> 00:06:41,702
But fist bumps is
almost like, "Ah...!
158
00:06:41,802 --> 00:06:42,870
"What's up, what's up, killer?
159
00:06:42,970 --> 00:06:46,773
"I see you, I see you, man.
160
00:06:46,874 --> 00:06:49,076
I see you, player."
161
00:06:49,176 --> 00:06:51,011
You know what I really
think happened?
162
00:06:51,111 --> 00:06:53,780
I think Joe Biden's team
briefed him and they were like,
163
00:06:53,881 --> 00:06:56,683
"Mr. President, in Saudi Arabia,
if you make them mad--
164
00:06:56,783 --> 00:06:58,986
"and you have--
they'll chop off your hand,
165
00:06:59,086 --> 00:07:00,687
"so, uh, you want
to hide your fingers,
166
00:07:00,787 --> 00:07:02,789
"get in, quick, in and out,
in and out.
167
00:07:02,890 --> 00:07:05,259
Godspeed, Mr. President."
168
00:07:05,359 --> 00:07:06,527
You know,
what Biden should have done
169
00:07:06,627 --> 00:07:08,629
if he didn't want
any controversy in this is,
170
00:07:08,729 --> 00:07:10,297
he should have gone in
for the handshake
171
00:07:10,397 --> 00:07:12,799
and then given him the "Psych."
172
00:07:14,001 --> 00:07:16,103
Just, just do that move.
173
00:07:16,203 --> 00:07:17,271
There's no comeback for that.
174
00:07:17,371 --> 00:07:18,772
Devastating.
175
00:07:18,872 --> 00:07:20,307
If he did that,
MBS would have been like,
176
00:07:20,407 --> 00:07:21,942
"Oh, just take
all the oil and go.
177
00:07:22,042 --> 00:07:24,811
Don't tell my friends,
don't tell my friends."
178
00:07:24,912 --> 00:07:26,180
And, okay, if you're wondering
179
00:07:26,280 --> 00:07:28,382
why this-this situation is
so awkward, right,
180
00:07:28,482 --> 00:07:29,850
"Oh, who cares?
He fist-bumped him,
181
00:07:29,950 --> 00:07:31,218
he met him.
Why is it so bad?"
182
00:07:31,318 --> 00:07:34,188
It's because back during
the presidential campaign,
183
00:07:34,288 --> 00:07:37,024
Biden was saying
things like this.
184
00:07:37,124 --> 00:07:40,928
Khashoggi was in fact murdered
and dismembered,
185
00:07:41,028 --> 00:07:43,463
and I believe on the order
of the crown prince.
186
00:07:43,564 --> 00:07:46,466
There's very little
social redeeming value of the--
187
00:07:46,567 --> 00:07:49,670
in the present, uh,
government in Saudi Arabia.
188
00:07:49,770 --> 00:07:52,339
We were going to, in fact,
make them pay the price
189
00:07:52,439 --> 00:07:55,609
and make them, in fact,
the pariah that they are.
190
00:07:55,709 --> 00:07:57,978
Awkward.
191
00:07:58,078 --> 00:07:59,513
Yeah, 'cause how do you go
from that
192
00:07:59,613 --> 00:08:03,217
to flying across the world
to meet the guy in his palace?
193
00:08:03,317 --> 00:08:04,384
Biden must have been
a little nervous.
194
00:08:04,484 --> 00:08:05,686
You know, you meet the guy
195
00:08:05,786 --> 00:08:06,887
and you've said
all these things about him,
196
00:08:06,987 --> 00:08:07,888
called him a murderer,
called him...
197
00:08:07,988 --> 00:08:09,289
And now you're in his palace?
198
00:08:09,389 --> 00:08:10,557
Just gonna be walking in like,
199
00:08:10,657 --> 00:08:12,426
"Oh, come on,
you-you've watched Fox News.
200
00:08:12,526 --> 00:08:14,228
"I just read
the teleprompter, man.
201
00:08:14,328 --> 00:08:15,562
"I don't even know
where I am most of the time.
202
00:08:15,662 --> 00:08:16,563
That wasn't me."
203
00:08:16,663 --> 00:08:18,599
(laughs, sighs deeply)
204
00:08:18,699 --> 00:08:19,933
And unfortunately
for President Biden,
205
00:08:20,033 --> 00:08:22,369
the bad news didn't stop
at his presidential pound.
206
00:08:22,469 --> 00:08:24,972
Yes, because when Biden
got back to the U.S.,
207
00:08:25,072 --> 00:08:28,609
he had to deal with another,
more powerful dictator--
208
00:08:28,709 --> 00:08:31,111
Joe Manchin,
West Virginia Democrat
209
00:08:31,211 --> 00:08:33,647
and somehow the real president
of the United States.
210
00:08:33,747 --> 00:08:36,483
Because, you see, Biden has
spent the last two years trying
211
00:08:36,583 --> 00:08:41,021
to get Joe Manchin to vote
for his Build Back Better Bill,
212
00:08:41,121 --> 00:08:44,458
but Manchin has spent
the last two years saying no.
213
00:08:44,558 --> 00:08:46,593
He's been giving a variety
of answers, you know.
214
00:08:46,693 --> 00:08:48,228
"Oh, I don't want
to risk inflation.
215
00:08:48,328 --> 00:08:49,530
"I don't want to end
offshore drilling.
216
00:08:49,630 --> 00:08:51,598
"I'm a Gemini
and Mercury is in retrograde.
217
00:08:51,698 --> 00:08:54,201
Now's not a good time
to make big decisions."
218
00:08:54,301 --> 00:08:56,370
So, after a lot of
back-and-forth, Manchin said,
219
00:08:56,470 --> 00:08:58,739
"Look, I'll do
a much smaller bill
220
00:08:58,839 --> 00:09:01,008
"that only has
some health insurance expansions
221
00:09:01,108 --> 00:09:02,409
"and the climate change stuff,
222
00:09:02,509 --> 00:09:03,710
"and then, like,
you can raise taxes
223
00:09:03,810 --> 00:09:05,145
on corporations to pay for it."
224
00:09:05,245 --> 00:09:07,848
So Democrats took out
everything Manchin didn't want
225
00:09:07,948 --> 00:09:10,017
and came back last week
with a bill
226
00:09:10,117 --> 00:09:11,952
that only has what he asked for
227
00:09:12,052 --> 00:09:16,056
to which Joe Manchin said...
(sighs)
228
00:09:16,156 --> 00:09:17,624
More now from Capitol Hill
229
00:09:17,724 --> 00:09:21,562
where Democrats are extremely
upset with Senator Joe Manchin
230
00:09:21,662 --> 00:09:24,598
after he effectively
torpedoed their hopes
231
00:09:24,698 --> 00:09:26,433
of acting on climate change.
232
00:09:26,533 --> 00:09:29,136
It comes after Manchin
told Democratic leadership
233
00:09:29,236 --> 00:09:33,106
he is not willing to back
major climate and tax provisions
234
00:09:33,207 --> 00:09:35,008
in President Biden's agenda.
235
00:09:35,108 --> 00:09:36,276
Senator Bernie Sanders
236
00:09:36,376 --> 00:09:38,946
was especially upset
over the weekend,
237
00:09:39,046 --> 00:09:42,382
suggesting Manchin
never negotiated in good faith
238
00:09:42,482 --> 00:09:44,184
in the first place.
239
00:09:44,284 --> 00:09:46,954
People like Manchin,
Sinema to a lesser degree,
240
00:09:47,054 --> 00:09:49,890
who are intentionally sabotaging
241
00:09:49,990 --> 00:09:52,893
the president's agenda,
what the American people want,
242
00:09:52,993 --> 00:09:55,762
what a majority of us
in the Democratic caucus want.
243
00:09:55,863 --> 00:09:57,431
Nothing new about this.
244
00:09:57,531 --> 00:09:59,099
Yep, Bernie's pissed off.
245
00:09:59,199 --> 00:10:01,001
Yeah.
I haven't seen him this pissed
246
00:10:01,101 --> 00:10:02,569
since someone tried to gave
him one percent milk.
247
00:10:02,669 --> 00:10:04,605
(imitates Sanders):
I stand with the 99% fat milk
248
00:10:04,705 --> 00:10:07,841
that's been excluded from the
dairy aisle for far too long.
249
00:10:07,941 --> 00:10:09,409
No more with the one percent.
250
00:10:09,510 --> 00:10:10,911
(applause)
251
00:10:11,011 --> 00:10:12,379
(normal voice):
And I get it.
252
00:10:12,479 --> 00:10:15,349
I get why Democrats are
frustrated with Joe Manchin
253
00:10:15,449 --> 00:10:17,284
because he's on your team.
254
00:10:17,384 --> 00:10:19,653
He's wearing your jersey,
but every time he gets the ball
255
00:10:19,753 --> 00:10:22,756
he dunks on you.
256
00:10:22,856 --> 00:10:25,492
But if Joe Manchin doesn't
believe in these policies,
257
00:10:25,592 --> 00:10:27,494
the least he could do
is just say so up front
258
00:10:27,594 --> 00:10:28,996
instead of wasting
everybody's time
259
00:10:29,096 --> 00:10:31,164
and jerking the Democrats
around for a year
260
00:10:31,265 --> 00:10:34,334
pretending there was something
they could do to win him over.
261
00:10:34,434 --> 00:10:37,037
(applause)
262
00:10:37,137 --> 00:10:38,305
You know what this
reminds me of?
263
00:10:38,405 --> 00:10:39,640
This reminds me of the time
264
00:10:39,740 --> 00:10:41,241
I tried to take a girl
to the prom. All right?
265
00:10:41,341 --> 00:10:44,044
And she was like, "Well, first
you have to buy me flowers,
266
00:10:44,144 --> 00:10:45,712
"then you have to rent a limo,
267
00:10:45,812 --> 00:10:47,514
then we have to go
somewhere nice for dinner."
268
00:10:47,614 --> 00:10:49,550
And I did all of that and then
the night of the prom came
269
00:10:49,650 --> 00:10:51,518
and she was like, "I don't think
that as your history teacher
270
00:10:51,618 --> 00:10:52,986
"this is appropriate for me
to go to the prom with you.
271
00:10:53,086 --> 00:10:54,488
Why am I going to the prom..."
272
00:10:54,588 --> 00:10:58,192
Why didn't you say that
at the beginning, Mrs. Jenkins?
273
00:10:58,292 --> 00:11:00,427
'Cause now I'm broke
and I don't have a date.
274
00:11:04,898 --> 00:11:07,267
Why is she so big
compared to...?
275
00:11:07,367 --> 00:11:09,903
(laughter)
276
00:11:10,003 --> 00:11:12,406
She was a very
interesting person.
277
00:11:12,506 --> 00:11:15,475
All right, finally, some news
from the world of automobiles,
278
00:11:15,576 --> 00:11:17,744
Transformers that never went
through puberty.
279
00:11:17,845 --> 00:11:20,214
Every year,
car companies compete
280
00:11:20,314 --> 00:11:22,649
to see who can offer
the most exciting new options.
281
00:11:22,749 --> 00:11:24,952
You know like
voice-activated controls
282
00:11:25,052 --> 00:11:27,354
or augmented reality windshields
283
00:11:27,454 --> 00:11:29,823
or trunks that have got
a lot more junk.
284
00:11:29,923 --> 00:11:31,391
Yeah, you are looking good,
Sedan.
285
00:11:31,491 --> 00:11:33,627
I see you, I see you.
286
00:11:33,727 --> 00:11:36,830
But the latest innovation
isn't a new feature.
287
00:11:36,930 --> 00:11:40,834
No, it's a new way to pay
for what you get.
288
00:11:40,934 --> 00:11:42,903
A new kind of subscription
could be making its way
289
00:11:43,003 --> 00:11:44,338
to your bank statements.
290
00:11:44,438 --> 00:11:47,708
BMW says that it will start
charging a monthly fee
291
00:11:47,808 --> 00:11:48,976
for heated seats.
292
00:11:49,076 --> 00:11:50,511
NEWSWOMAN:
It costs about $12 a month
293
00:11:50,611 --> 00:11:53,447
and would allow the carmaker
to activate the heating coils
294
00:11:53,547 --> 00:11:54,948
already built into the seats.
295
00:11:55,048 --> 00:11:57,584
You can purchase the heated
seat when you buy the car.
296
00:11:57,684 --> 00:11:59,086
But for those who didn't,
you can at least
297
00:11:59,186 --> 00:12:02,422
temporarily try them out on a
cold day with a subscription.
298
00:12:02,523 --> 00:12:03,857
They're also considering
a subscription service
299
00:12:03,957 --> 00:12:06,293
for heated steering wheels.
300
00:12:06,393 --> 00:12:08,428
Hmm.
301
00:12:08,529 --> 00:12:09,763
That's interesting.
302
00:12:09,863 --> 00:12:11,765
BMW's going to let
people subscribe
303
00:12:11,865 --> 00:12:15,335
for certain features
in the car like heated seats.
304
00:12:15,435 --> 00:12:18,872
Yeah, so instead of just buying
it, you pay month to month.
305
00:12:18,972 --> 00:12:20,140
Which I'll be honest
actually sounds great
306
00:12:20,240 --> 00:12:22,042
'cause I don't need
heated seats in the summer
307
00:12:22,142 --> 00:12:24,411
so why am I paying? Huh?
308
00:12:24,511 --> 00:12:25,946
They should do this
for every feature: the radio,
309
00:12:26,046 --> 00:12:28,215
the windshield wipers.
310
00:12:28,315 --> 00:12:29,816
Yeah, the horn.
311
00:12:29,917 --> 00:12:31,351
I don't need the horn
all the time.
312
00:12:31,451 --> 00:12:33,220
I want to subscribe to the horn
if I get cut off.
313
00:12:33,320 --> 00:12:35,155
This mother... Yo,
give me three. Give me three.
314
00:12:35,255 --> 00:12:36,857
Load it up. Give me three.
315
00:12:36,957 --> 00:12:38,992
I'm gonna light his ass up.
316
00:12:39,092 --> 00:12:41,128
(applause, whooping)
317
00:12:42,029 --> 00:12:43,197
But there's a downside.
318
00:12:43,297 --> 00:12:44,565
You realize there's a downside
to this, right?
319
00:12:44,665 --> 00:12:46,133
Car manufacturers are
joining the subscription model
320
00:12:46,233 --> 00:12:47,668
and we know how this goes.
321
00:12:47,768 --> 00:12:48,869
First you buy things,
322
00:12:48,969 --> 00:12:50,304
then they go,
oh, now you subscribe.
323
00:12:50,404 --> 00:12:51,405
And then how does it end?
324
00:12:51,505 --> 00:12:54,541
It always ends with ads. Always.
325
00:12:54,641 --> 00:12:56,443
It's only a matter of time
before you buy a BMW
326
00:12:56,543 --> 00:12:58,645
and then you're gonna have to,
like, listen to a mattress ad
327
00:12:58,745 --> 00:13:00,147
every time you start the car.
328
00:13:00,247 --> 00:13:01,982
"Aah! The killer's coming!
The kill--
329
00:13:02,082 --> 00:13:03,083
Let's get out of here!"
330
00:13:03,183 --> 00:13:05,786
"Are you looking
for a new mattress?"
331
00:13:05,886 --> 00:13:07,120
(screaming)
332
00:13:07,221 --> 00:13:08,789
Stab, stab, stab, stab, stab.
333
00:13:08,889 --> 00:13:10,390
(applause)
334
00:13:10,490 --> 00:13:11,692
(whooping)
335
00:13:11,792 --> 00:13:14,728
So, look, car manufacturers
want subscription plans?
336
00:13:14,828 --> 00:13:16,296
That's fine. You know?
337
00:13:16,396 --> 00:13:17,631
Pay for the parts of the car
that you only want
338
00:13:17,731 --> 00:13:20,501
when you use them.
I think that actually works.
339
00:13:20,601 --> 00:13:22,836
Although, you better be warned--
340
00:13:22,936 --> 00:13:26,640
if you forget to renew
the wrong subscriptions,
341
00:13:26,740 --> 00:13:28,609
that shit could end in tears.
342
00:13:29,576 --> 00:13:31,245
Oh, oh, oh, oh. Oh, oh!
343
00:13:31,345 --> 00:13:34,815
Oh, shit, I knew I should have
renewed the brakes subscription!
344
00:13:34,915 --> 00:13:37,484
Oh! All right, you got me, BMW!
345
00:13:37,584 --> 00:13:39,953
One more month. One more month
of brakes, please.
346
00:13:40,053 --> 00:13:42,422
Wait, wait, $7.99 for one month
347
00:13:42,523 --> 00:13:44,691
and then $50 for a year.
Is that cheaper?
348
00:13:44,791 --> 00:13:46,293
Is that...
(mutters) What is that?
349
00:13:46,393 --> 00:13:49,196
That's $7.99. Seven times 12,
that equals...
350
00:13:49,296 --> 00:13:50,197
It's gonna be...
351
00:13:50,297 --> 00:13:52,399
Oh...!
352
00:13:52,499 --> 00:13:53,634
Oh! Seven times...
(blubbers)
353
00:13:53,734 --> 00:13:55,936
It's cheaper...
(blubbering)
354
00:13:56,036 --> 00:13:58,071
(cheering and applause)
355
00:14:00,307 --> 00:14:02,609
I'm fine. I'm fine.
356
00:14:02,709 --> 00:14:04,278
I made it. I'm fine.
357
00:14:04,378 --> 00:14:05,612
All right,
that's it for the headlines.
358
00:14:05,712 --> 00:14:07,214
But before we go
to a quick break,
359
00:14:07,314 --> 00:14:08,615
let's check in
on the stock market
360
00:14:08,715 --> 00:14:10,884
with our finance expert
Michael Kosta, everybody!
361
00:14:10,984 --> 00:14:12,819
(cheering and applause)
362
00:14:12,920 --> 00:14:15,155
-You okay? You okay?
-Michael, nice to see you again.
363
00:14:15,255 --> 00:14:18,091
So, uh, what's happening
in the markets, man?
364
00:14:18,192 --> 00:14:19,726
Uh, the market--
You okay, first of all?
365
00:14:19,826 --> 00:14:21,461
That was a-- that was a--
that was a tumble
366
00:14:21,562 --> 00:14:23,397
-you took. Yeah. -Yeah,
that wasn't-- that wasn't real.
367
00:14:23,497 --> 00:14:25,065
-Oh, it wasn't real? Okay, phew.
All right, got it. -No.
368
00:14:25,165 --> 00:14:27,835
Great. Um, I'm crushing
the markets, dude.
369
00:14:27,935 --> 00:14:29,603
-Crushing, crushing, crushing.
-Still?
370
00:14:29,703 --> 00:14:31,338
Still crushing.
And I got a hot tip for you.
371
00:14:31,438 --> 00:14:33,040
I got a hot tip for all of you.
Pay attention, all right?
372
00:14:33,140 --> 00:14:34,641
So, let's get into this. Uh...
373
00:14:34,741 --> 00:14:37,244
Okay. Well, actually,
first of all, BMW,
374
00:14:37,344 --> 00:14:39,246
the subscription
for the warm seats.
375
00:14:39,346 --> 00:14:42,616
-Yeah. -Right? I mean, I'm over
all these subscriptions, okay?
376
00:14:42,716 --> 00:14:44,384
I was trying
to print something recently,
377
00:14:44,484 --> 00:14:45,919
and my printer was like,
"Hey, do you want to sign up
378
00:14:46,019 --> 00:14:47,588
for an ink subscription?"
379
00:14:47,688 --> 00:14:50,724
S-- Why would I give my credit
card to a printing company
380
00:14:50,824 --> 00:14:53,660
when I can just do all my
personal printing here at work?
381
00:14:53,760 --> 00:14:55,729
-Okay? I mean, I...
-(applause)
382
00:14:55,829 --> 00:14:58,065
Trevor, I print
383
00:14:58,165 --> 00:15:00,567
manuals, encyclopedias,
384
00:15:00,667 --> 00:15:01,602
health records.
385
00:15:01,702 --> 00:15:03,604
Thousands of pages, you know?
386
00:15:03,704 --> 00:15:05,205
I print so much,
it's actually easier for me
387
00:15:05,305 --> 00:15:08,842
just to take one of the work
printers home with me,
388
00:15:08,942 --> 00:15:10,344
and now I print from work
at home.
389
00:15:10,444 --> 00:15:11,645
I can print anything you want.
390
00:15:11,745 --> 00:15:13,113
You just let me know--
I got a printer for you.
391
00:15:13,213 --> 00:15:14,615
-Oh, I-I will. I will.
-Let me know.
392
00:15:14,715 --> 00:15:16,149
I got a hot tip, too.
393
00:15:16,250 --> 00:15:18,018
-Okay. We won't. -Don't forget.
I got a hot tip for you guys.
394
00:15:18,118 --> 00:15:19,520
-Let's get to this. Oh...
-What's happening in the market?
395
00:15:19,620 --> 00:15:20,687
I'll show you.
Oh, you know what?
396
00:15:20,787 --> 00:15:22,289
-That European heat wave...
-Yes.
397
00:15:22,389 --> 00:15:24,691
That... (exhales)
That's hot. That is hot.
398
00:15:24,791 --> 00:15:27,427
I was just in Ireland
for a couple days.
399
00:15:27,528 --> 00:15:29,129
-(whooping)
-It's-it's hot. It's hot.
400
00:15:29,229 --> 00:15:31,465
And they don't handle the heat
well there, okay?
401
00:15:31,565 --> 00:15:32,733
I mean, how you gonna cool off,
402
00:15:32,833 --> 00:15:34,134
drink a lukewarm Guinness
403
00:15:34,234 --> 00:15:36,570
and have some piping hot
shepherd's pie?
404
00:15:36,670 --> 00:15:37,638
You know what I mean?
405
00:15:37,738 --> 00:15:40,207
"Mmm, this gravy
is so refreshing."
406
00:15:40,307 --> 00:15:41,408
You know?
407
00:15:41,508 --> 00:15:42,676
It is hot in Europe.
408
00:15:42,776 --> 00:15:45,279
And with the euro now,
when you're in Europe,
409
00:15:45,379 --> 00:15:47,848
you're hot and you're broke.
410
00:15:47,948 --> 00:15:49,950
I was thinking, I haven't
been this hot and broke
411
00:15:50,050 --> 00:15:51,451
since I was 18,
412
00:15:51,552 --> 00:15:52,719
living in L.A.,
413
00:15:52,819 --> 00:15:54,354
doing shirtless auditions
414
00:15:54,454 --> 00:15:57,558
for "independent films"
that never got made.
415
00:15:57,658 --> 00:15:59,693
(cheering and applause)
416
00:16:02,362 --> 00:16:04,431
The director said that
they're caught up in editing,
417
00:16:04,531 --> 00:16:06,934
but it's been about 20 years,
Trevor. So...
418
00:16:07,034 --> 00:16:08,936
All right. I got a hot tip
for you. Don't forget.
419
00:16:09,036 --> 00:16:10,871
-I-I won't forget, Michael.
-Okay? Okay. Hot tip. All right.
420
00:16:10,971 --> 00:16:13,173
Let's break down
this euro chart.
421
00:16:13,273 --> 00:16:14,908
I mean, look,
this thing looks like
422
00:16:15,008 --> 00:16:18,045
you're skiing down
the Swiss Alps, am I right?
423
00:16:18,145 --> 00:16:21,381
Now, I know that because,
thanks to how low the euro is,
424
00:16:21,481 --> 00:16:25,185
I can afford
to now ski down the Swiss Alps.
425
00:16:25,285 --> 00:16:27,921
This is great news
for all of us!
426
00:16:28,021 --> 00:16:29,656
-It is!
-(applause)
427
00:16:30,991 --> 00:16:34,628
Europe, Europe is now cheap
for us in America.
428
00:16:34,728 --> 00:16:36,830
You know, think about it--
Americans love going to Mexico
429
00:16:36,930 --> 00:16:37,998
because it's so cheap.
430
00:16:38,098 --> 00:16:39,967
Well,
what we didn't realize was,
431
00:16:40,067 --> 00:16:41,702
this whole previous time,
432
00:16:41,802 --> 00:16:45,339
America was Mexico to-to Europe.
433
00:16:45,439 --> 00:16:47,574
Right? But now that's swapped.
434
00:16:47,674 --> 00:16:49,710
Europe is our Mexico.
435
00:16:49,810 --> 00:16:52,212
And we got Mexico, right?
436
00:16:52,312 --> 00:16:53,680
(cheering and applause)
437
00:16:53,780 --> 00:16:55,883
We have two Mexicos.
438
00:16:55,983 --> 00:16:59,386
No other country in the world
has two Mexicos.
439
00:16:59,486 --> 00:17:01,255
Think about that. Now...
440
00:17:02,756 --> 00:17:04,725
What I like about this
441
00:17:04,825 --> 00:17:07,127
is this has dropped
the Europeans' cockiness
442
00:17:07,227 --> 00:17:08,762
a little bit, you know?
443
00:17:08,862 --> 00:17:11,231
Some French...
(puffs) "Oh, you Americans,
444
00:17:11,331 --> 00:17:13,100
you're so overweight."
And I'm thinking,
445
00:17:13,200 --> 00:17:14,334
yeah, maybe we are overweight,
446
00:17:14,434 --> 00:17:16,436
because maybe
we've just stuffed our pockets
447
00:17:16,537 --> 00:17:19,606
-with our currency. Right?
-(cheering)
448
00:17:19,706 --> 00:17:22,009
And it's weighing us down.
449
00:17:24,545 --> 00:17:25,913
I promised you a hot tip.
450
00:17:26,013 --> 00:17:26,980
-Yeah, you've been promising the
whole time. -Okay, okay, okay.
451
00:17:27,080 --> 00:17:27,981
Hot tip--
452
00:17:28,081 --> 00:17:31,051
in Europe, you don't tip, right?
453
00:17:31,151 --> 00:17:32,853
And it's hot there.
454
00:17:34,354 --> 00:17:36,056
-(cheering and applause)
-Mm.
455
00:17:39,026 --> 00:17:40,661
-I wonder how many people invest
on your advice. -Yeah.
456
00:17:40,761 --> 00:17:42,796
Michael Kosta, everybody!
All right, when we come back,
457
00:17:42,896 --> 00:17:44,431
Dulcé Sloan
is hitting the streets
458
00:17:44,531 --> 00:17:46,300
and she's hitting them hard.
Don't go away.
459
00:17:46,400 --> 00:17:48,435
(cheering and applause)
460
00:17:54,954 --> 00:17:57,991
(applause and cheering)
461
00:18:01,895 --> 00:18:03,496
Welcome back
to The Daily Show.
462
00:18:03,596 --> 00:18:05,465
You know,
there's so much important news
463
00:18:05,565 --> 00:18:08,835
out there these days,
so I asked Dulcé Sloan
464
00:18:08,935 --> 00:18:10,503
to get out on the street
and talk to people
465
00:18:10,603 --> 00:18:12,772
to get their opinions
about issues.
466
00:18:12,872 --> 00:18:15,608
But Dulcé just does
what she wants,
467
00:18:15,708 --> 00:18:18,111
so instead,
she came back with this.
468
00:18:18,211 --> 00:18:20,713
Hello, friends. Now usually
when I'm out and about
469
00:18:20,814 --> 00:18:23,817
on the streets of my favorite
city in the world,
470
00:18:23,917 --> 00:18:25,418
I'm asking
hard-hitting questions
471
00:18:25,518 --> 00:18:27,887
about the issues of the day,
but not today.
472
00:18:27,987 --> 00:18:30,990
I'm out at the rat factory
trying
473
00:18:31,091 --> 00:18:33,359
to ask New Yorkers
one important question--
474
00:18:33,460 --> 00:18:36,563
-Can I make you late for work?
-♪ ♪
475
00:18:36,663 --> 00:18:37,997
I want to.
476
00:18:38,098 --> 00:18:39,833
And I just need to...
477
00:18:39,933 --> 00:18:42,168
find... people with a job.
478
00:18:42,268 --> 00:18:43,536
Can I make you late for work?
479
00:18:43,636 --> 00:18:45,038
Can I make...? No.
480
00:18:45,138 --> 00:18:46,906
Hello, young man. I am trying
481
00:18:47,006 --> 00:18:48,708
to figure out...
Wait. What do you do?
482
00:18:48,808 --> 00:18:50,210
Well, I'm traveling.
483
00:18:50,310 --> 00:18:51,611
Okay, so you're unemployed.
Got it.
484
00:18:51,711 --> 00:18:53,246
Young man? Young man?
485
00:18:53,346 --> 00:18:55,115
-Can I talk to you?
-Yeah.
486
00:18:55,215 --> 00:18:57,117
Okay, now, where are you going?
487
00:18:57,217 --> 00:18:58,551
Uh, Downtown, SoHo.
488
00:18:58,651 --> 00:19:00,120
You going to work?
489
00:19:00,220 --> 00:19:02,322
-I'm heading to work right now.
-Where do you work?
490
00:19:02,422 --> 00:19:04,023
Uh, I... at a small start-up.
491
00:19:04,124 --> 00:19:05,859
What the (bleep)? Start...
492
00:19:05,992 --> 00:19:07,861
People keep telling me
they work at start-ups.
493
00:19:07,994 --> 00:19:09,195
What do they start up?
What are you starting?
494
00:19:09,295 --> 00:19:10,764
What is up?
What is going on?
495
00:19:10,864 --> 00:19:13,867
You ever seen, like, subscribe
and save on a store online?
496
00:19:14,000 --> 00:19:16,002
We make
the subscribe and save thing.
497
00:19:16,102 --> 00:19:18,138
-That's a job?!
-Subscription's on a website.
498
00:19:18,238 --> 00:19:20,273
That's a job.
I'm out here standing
499
00:19:20,373 --> 00:19:21,808
in the sun like my ancestors,
500
00:19:21,908 --> 00:19:23,877
and this little boy out here
making click buttons
501
00:19:24,010 --> 00:19:26,780
on the damn Internet?
That's what you do?
502
00:19:26,880 --> 00:19:28,314
-That's what I do.
-So, I need you to help me.
503
00:19:28,414 --> 00:19:31,351
One of my friends is having
a birthday party.
504
00:19:31,451 --> 00:19:33,486
-Okay.
-And what I need--
505
00:19:33,586 --> 00:19:35,255
I found this flavor,
I thought it was colorful,
506
00:19:35,355 --> 00:19:38,258
but I did not know
if they would like it,
507
00:19:38,358 --> 00:19:42,028
so I would like to ask you
to try said cupcake.
508
00:19:42,095 --> 00:19:43,129
You work out, you're fine.
509
00:19:43,229 --> 00:19:44,264
Listen, these aren't
gag cupcakes.
510
00:19:44,364 --> 00:19:45,598
We bought them
from a legitimate store.
511
00:19:45,698 --> 00:19:47,333
-I-I believe you. -I'm not
trying to mess with you.
512
00:19:47,434 --> 00:19:49,169
I hope you don't-- I mean,
there's-- it's nut-free,
513
00:19:49,269 --> 00:19:50,303
so if you have an allergy...
514
00:19:50,403 --> 00:19:51,471
Do not put your food
on the ground.
515
00:19:51,571 --> 00:19:53,506
Give me that bag.
What's wrong with you?
516
00:19:53,606 --> 00:19:55,108
Gonna catch hepatitis 12.
517
00:19:55,208 --> 00:19:58,845
All right, I don't usually eat
dairy, but I guess I will today.
518
00:19:58,978 --> 00:20:00,780
Um... is it dairy?
519
00:20:00,880 --> 00:20:02,515
It-it doesn't matter,
I'm not allergic.
520
00:20:02,615 --> 00:20:04,617
All right... do you want me
to eat, like, part of it?
521
00:20:04,717 --> 00:20:06,319
-The whole thing?
-Taste it, boy!
522
00:20:07,687 --> 00:20:09,122
Can you taste the colors?
523
00:20:09,222 --> 00:20:10,657
(laughing):
I don't know what I'm tasting.
524
00:20:10,757 --> 00:20:12,325
Oh, no,
525
00:20:12,425 --> 00:20:14,094
-so you're not enjoying it?
-No.
526
00:20:14,194 --> 00:20:15,795
-So, even like your best food...
-Did you really buy these?
527
00:20:15,895 --> 00:20:17,363
Like, did you pay someone
money for them?
528
00:20:17,464 --> 00:20:19,099
-(laughs) -Not my money,
Comedy Central's money.
529
00:20:19,199 --> 00:20:20,400
What, are you crazy?
530
00:20:20,500 --> 00:20:24,137
-True. -So, so you're
not a fan of these?
531
00:20:24,237 --> 00:20:25,438
I'm not a-- I would,
532
00:20:25,538 --> 00:20:27,440
like, eat it if I was bored.
533
00:20:27,540 --> 00:20:28,441
-(laughs)
-Okay.
534
00:20:28,541 --> 00:20:29,576
What do I do with this?
535
00:20:29,676 --> 00:20:30,643
Throw it in the trash can
right there
536
00:20:30,743 --> 00:20:32,011
'cause you don't like it.
537
00:20:32,112 --> 00:20:34,080
So, I have one last question
for you, young man.
538
00:20:34,180 --> 00:20:35,615
-Yeah.
-Did I make you late for work?
539
00:20:35,715 --> 00:20:37,684
-(laughs): Yeah.
-Yes!
540
00:20:37,784 --> 00:20:39,219
(humming happily)
541
00:20:39,319 --> 00:20:42,722
I was already late for work
when I came out of the subway.
542
00:20:42,822 --> 00:20:45,024
-You know, honestly,
I appreciate that. -(laughs)
543
00:20:45,091 --> 00:20:46,493
Can I make you late for...?
544
00:20:46,593 --> 00:20:48,361
You didn't have to do that.
That was rude. Okay.
545
00:20:48,461 --> 00:20:50,163
Excuse me, excuse me, excuse me?
546
00:20:50,263 --> 00:20:51,698
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
547
00:20:51,798 --> 00:20:53,133
Oh, hello.
548
00:20:53,233 --> 00:20:54,567
-(others greeting)
-Hi.
549
00:20:54,667 --> 00:20:56,436
Y'all look like students.
Y'all ain't got no job.
550
00:20:56,536 --> 00:20:58,972
-(laughter)
-No, we don't have a job.
551
00:20:59,072 --> 00:21:01,808
See, 'cause I'm trying to do
"Can I make you late for work?"
552
00:21:01,975 --> 00:21:03,409
Now, aren't you all going to
school? Ain't that the thing?
553
00:21:03,510 --> 00:21:04,644
-Yeah.
-Yeah.
554
00:21:04,744 --> 00:21:06,079
So I can make you late
for school, right?
555
00:21:06,179 --> 00:21:07,413
We're actually in a class.
556
00:21:07,514 --> 00:21:09,115
We're doing an assignment
right now.
557
00:21:09,215 --> 00:21:10,650
-A field trip.
-Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait.
558
00:21:10,750 --> 00:21:12,252
I'm in school,
I didn't sign up for this.
559
00:21:12,352 --> 00:21:14,487
And my adjunct professor,
they need to give me a check.
560
00:21:14,587 --> 00:21:16,756
-♪ ♪
-Okay, um...
561
00:21:16,856 --> 00:21:20,360
Hello. Sis, sis, sis. Sis, sis.
562
00:21:20,460 --> 00:21:21,561
Yes, yes, yes.
563
00:21:21,661 --> 00:21:23,329
Okay, first of all, the nails.
564
00:21:23,430 --> 00:21:24,531
I called 'cause of the nails.
565
00:21:24,631 --> 00:21:26,332
I appreciate, you know,
we see a moment.
566
00:21:26,433 --> 00:21:27,867
-Love it. Love it.
-We got the vibe.
567
00:21:28,001 --> 00:21:30,170
-Ooh, look how cute.
-Thank you, thank you.
568
00:21:30,270 --> 00:21:31,805
We got dip powder
or just acrylic?
569
00:21:31,905 --> 00:21:33,440
Um, actually, these are Aprés.
570
00:21:33,540 --> 00:21:36,009
-The who?
-(laughs)
571
00:21:36,075 --> 00:21:37,277
What do you do?
572
00:21:37,377 --> 00:21:39,846
Um, I'm a political organizer
for a labor union.
573
00:21:40,013 --> 00:21:43,516
Um, we organize
building service workers.
574
00:21:43,616 --> 00:21:46,486
So, like, people who...
clean the building...
575
00:21:46,586 --> 00:21:49,389
People who clean the buildings,
people who secure the buildings,
576
00:21:49,489 --> 00:21:53,159
people who work at airports,
people who work in schools.
577
00:21:53,259 --> 00:21:54,594
-Okay.
-We handle all of it.
578
00:21:54,694 --> 00:21:56,563
You know, they be taking
advantage of people.
579
00:21:56,663 --> 00:21:57,797
I'm also in a union.
580
00:21:57,964 --> 00:21:59,799
I'm on TV but we also
have to be in unions.
581
00:21:59,966 --> 00:22:02,735
-We need that. We need that.
-So... One quick second.
582
00:22:02,836 --> 00:22:04,137
Um... All right.
583
00:22:04,237 --> 00:22:06,739
Just gonna use the camera
right quick
584
00:22:06,840 --> 00:22:08,274
to actually touch it...
585
00:22:08,374 --> 00:22:09,642
'Cause you know sometimes
you get a little shiny.
586
00:22:09,742 --> 00:22:11,411
-Absolutely.
-Maybe just a little...
587
00:22:11,511 --> 00:22:12,645
-A little shiny.
-Matte it up a little.
588
00:22:12,745 --> 00:22:14,114
Sorry, can we get my pow...
589
00:22:14,214 --> 00:22:16,382
I-I know you're probably...
Are-are you late?
590
00:22:16,483 --> 00:22:18,151
Do you mind?
591
00:22:18,251 --> 00:22:21,054
-For the culture. For my people.
-For the culture.
592
00:22:21,154 --> 00:22:22,055
-You can keep that.
-Thank you.
593
00:22:22,155 --> 00:22:23,490
It's a little souvenir.
594
00:22:23,590 --> 00:22:25,425
It's been on your face.
We don't need it on my face.
595
00:22:25,525 --> 00:22:27,227
I wouldn't put it on your--
We're still in a Panasonic.
596
00:22:27,327 --> 00:22:28,595
We're in a Pandora's box.
597
00:22:28,695 --> 00:22:30,029
Okay? We're in a Popeyes.
598
00:22:30,130 --> 00:22:31,364
We're in a panini press.
599
00:22:31,464 --> 00:22:32,699
-Ooh, a panini press.
-We are in a Panda Express.
600
00:22:32,799 --> 00:22:35,568
We're in a pan dulce.
Now, just for... (clears throat)
601
00:22:35,668 --> 00:22:37,070
Top and bottom. Quick question.
602
00:22:37,170 --> 00:22:38,605
What's up?
603
00:22:38,705 --> 00:22:40,440
Did I make you late for work?
604
00:22:40,540 --> 00:22:41,541
You made me later.
605
00:22:41,641 --> 00:22:43,710
Yay!
(laughs)
606
00:22:43,810 --> 00:22:44,778
Okay.
607
00:22:44,878 --> 00:22:45,845
Ooh, ooh, ooh.
608
00:22:46,012 --> 00:22:48,181
Oh, sir, sir.
One moment, please.
609
00:22:49,149 --> 00:22:50,416
Just a quick question.
610
00:22:50,517 --> 00:22:51,751
Now, you strike me as someone
611
00:22:51,851 --> 00:22:53,553
who is known for, like,
a signature dish,
612
00:22:53,653 --> 00:22:56,322
a signature... meal
613
00:22:56,423 --> 00:22:58,057
when you're having, like,
your dinner parties.
614
00:22:58,158 --> 00:23:00,560
Um, yeah.
I have a couple of recipes.
615
00:23:00,660 --> 00:23:03,029
Yes. What is, like,
your number one go-to
616
00:23:03,129 --> 00:23:05,632
when you're going
to have folks over?
617
00:23:05,732 --> 00:23:07,967
How 'bout just, uh...
618
00:23:08,067 --> 00:23:09,402
my favorite salsa?
619
00:23:09,502 --> 00:23:11,371
A salsa? I'm here for a salsa.
620
00:23:11,471 --> 00:23:12,972
What kind of salsas
we talking about?
621
00:23:13,072 --> 00:23:17,377
Uh, salsa with jalapenos
and, uh, tomato and...
622
00:23:17,477 --> 00:23:21,181
-Oh. -Mostly jalapenos
and cilantro and onion,
623
00:23:21,281 --> 00:23:22,649
gr-green onion and...
624
00:23:22,749 --> 00:23:25,452
SLOAN: Ooh, this dude's
gonna make me late to work.
625
00:23:26,553 --> 00:23:28,054
Never mind.
626
00:23:28,154 --> 00:23:30,723
Can I...
can I make you late for...
627
00:23:30,824 --> 00:23:33,126
This has been me, Dulcé Sloan,
628
00:23:33,226 --> 00:23:36,029
making people late for work
for absolutely no reason.
629
00:23:36,129 --> 00:23:37,430
Bye!
630
00:23:37,530 --> 00:23:39,532
Dulcé Sloan, everybody.
All right, stay tuned,
631
00:23:39,632 --> 00:23:41,401
because, when we come back,
we'll be talking
632
00:23:41,501 --> 00:23:43,470
about WNBA star Brittney Griner,
633
00:23:43,570 --> 00:23:45,805
who's been detained in Russia
for months now,
634
00:23:45,905 --> 00:23:46,906
so don't go away.
635
00:23:47,006 --> 00:23:49,042
(cheering and applause)
636
00:23:56,382 --> 00:23:59,886
(applause and cheering)
637
00:23:59,986 --> 00:24:02,455
welcome back
to The Daily Show.
638
00:24:02,555 --> 00:24:05,925
Five months ago, WNBA star
Brittney Griner was detained
639
00:24:06,025 --> 00:24:08,461
by the Russian government
while visiting Russia
640
00:24:08,561 --> 00:24:10,563
to play
with the local basketball team.
641
00:24:10,663 --> 00:24:12,632
We're joined now
by Terri Jackson,
642
00:24:12,732 --> 00:24:15,802
executive director of the union
representing WNBA players
643
00:24:15,902 --> 00:24:18,304
to discuss where the situation
currently stands
644
00:24:18,404 --> 00:24:19,739
and where we hope
to go from here.
645
00:24:19,839 --> 00:24:22,208
Terri Jackson,
welcome to The Daily Show.
646
00:24:22,308 --> 00:24:24,544
-Thank you, Trevor.
-(applause and cheering)
647
00:24:24,644 --> 00:24:28,247
So, I think I'm going
to start with the question
648
00:24:28,348 --> 00:24:32,251
that really sets up the whole,
you know, not even discussion,
649
00:24:32,352 --> 00:24:33,853
but the situation.
650
00:24:33,953 --> 00:24:35,755
Some people have seen pieces
of the story--
651
00:24:35,855 --> 00:24:38,124
Brittney Griner
detained in Russia.
652
00:24:38,224 --> 00:24:40,626
Some say, you know, it was
because of a false accusation.
653
00:24:40,727 --> 00:24:42,562
Some say it was because
of prescriptions.
654
00:24:42,662 --> 00:24:46,065
How did the story start, just to
get everybody on the same page?
655
00:24:46,165 --> 00:24:49,202
Our very own Brittney Griner--
BG--
656
00:24:49,302 --> 00:24:52,438
was returning back to Russia.
657
00:24:52,538 --> 00:24:56,976
Um, I think everybody saw
that clip
658
00:24:57,076 --> 00:24:59,979
of her in the airport.
659
00:25:00,079 --> 00:25:04,684
Um, at some point, there was
a search of her belongings.
660
00:25:04,784 --> 00:25:09,555
And what we learned thereafter
was that she was detained.
661
00:25:09,656 --> 00:25:13,860
She was returning back to Russia
to go play with her team...
662
00:25:13,960 --> 00:25:16,129
-Mm-hmm. -that she's played with
for several years
663
00:25:16,229 --> 00:25:20,566
and won great championships
for them.
664
00:25:20,667 --> 00:25:23,169
So she didn't make it back
to the team.
665
00:25:23,269 --> 00:25:25,505
She was detained.
And let's just stop right there
666
00:25:25,605 --> 00:25:28,207
and just think
about what that means
667
00:25:28,307 --> 00:25:30,610
to be an American
over in Russia,
668
00:25:30,710 --> 00:25:35,014
to be learning
about this process in real time.
669
00:25:35,114 --> 00:25:39,752
And coming forward and making
the statements that she made.
670
00:25:39,852 --> 00:25:41,754
And we're just hoping
and praying
671
00:25:41,854 --> 00:25:46,526
that the judge, the court
extends her great compassion
672
00:25:46,626 --> 00:25:50,630
and great mercy because that was
so incredibly brave to do.
673
00:25:50,730 --> 00:25:53,232
-It's a... it's...
-But again, but again,
674
00:25:53,333 --> 00:25:56,002
-reading the case
into the record... -Mm-hmm.
675
00:25:56,102 --> 00:25:58,705
...and hopefully,
this process...
676
00:25:58,805 --> 00:26:01,174
Again, I don't completely
understand it,
677
00:26:01,274 --> 00:26:03,710
but hopefully,
this process will continue
678
00:26:03,810 --> 00:26:05,311
to move forward,
and we can see a conclusion.
679
00:26:05,411 --> 00:26:07,246
That-that...
If I may interrupt you there.
680
00:26:07,347 --> 00:26:08,848
-I think, um, that's been...
-Sure.
681
00:26:08,948 --> 00:26:11,351
That's been one of the more
confusing aspects of the story.
682
00:26:11,451 --> 00:26:12,952
Initially, when it kicked off,
683
00:26:13,052 --> 00:26:16,723
um, many people were encouraged
not to weigh in online,
684
00:26:16,823 --> 00:26:19,158
not to bring it
to the president's attention,
685
00:26:19,258 --> 00:26:20,760
not to make it an issue
686
00:26:20,860 --> 00:26:23,796
because people felt
like this may hamper,
687
00:26:23,896 --> 00:26:26,332
um, you know,
her, her defense in Russia.
688
00:26:26,432 --> 00:26:28,001
Because, as you know,
in Russia it's different,
689
00:26:28,101 --> 00:26:30,436
it's-it's not really a trial
the way Americans think of it.
690
00:26:30,536 --> 00:26:32,572
It's more,
the state lays out its case,
691
00:26:32,672 --> 00:26:35,641
and I think it's over 90%
prosecution rate.
692
00:26:35,742 --> 00:26:39,412
But what was interesting about
this story is when it happened.
693
00:26:39,512 --> 00:26:42,115
Just as the invasion
of Ukraine took place,
694
00:26:42,215 --> 00:26:44,517
it seemed
like Brittney was being used
695
00:26:44,617 --> 00:26:45,985
as a pawn in this situation.
696
00:26:46,085 --> 00:26:48,588
And I know that puts yourselves
in a precarious position,
697
00:26:48,688 --> 00:26:52,191
but how much help are you hoping
for from the administration
698
00:26:52,291 --> 00:26:54,193
and how much, you know,
of a movement are you hoping
699
00:26:54,293 --> 00:26:56,763
to turn this into,
or does that hamper
700
00:26:56,863 --> 00:27:00,233
the negotiations
to-to bring this woman home?
701
00:27:00,333 --> 00:27:02,535
You're right,
in the beginning we were quiet.
702
00:27:02,635 --> 00:27:04,437
Um, that's what we were told--
703
00:27:04,537 --> 00:27:07,840
that was the best way
to show our best support--
704
00:27:07,940 --> 00:27:12,812
and if anybody knows and your
audience knows WNBA players,
705
00:27:12,912 --> 00:27:15,948
um, they are very vocal,
they-they look to get informed
706
00:27:16,049 --> 00:27:19,552
about a situation, and they will
step out on their platforms
707
00:27:19,652 --> 00:27:23,022
and, and-and give, you know,
the proper recognition,
708
00:27:23,122 --> 00:27:24,724
the proper spotlight.
709
00:27:24,824 --> 00:27:27,827
But the way that we were told
in the beginning,
710
00:27:27,927 --> 00:27:30,029
um, to best show
our support was to be quiet,
711
00:27:30,129 --> 00:27:33,399
and so what we did was,
we, we reached out to experts,
712
00:27:33,499 --> 00:27:37,570
um, to learn about
Russian-Ukrainian affairs,
713
00:27:37,670 --> 00:27:39,706
to learn more about this system,
714
00:27:39,806 --> 00:27:43,843
to learn how this could play out
over the next several weeks.
715
00:27:43,943 --> 00:27:47,347
And so, as my members always do,
they look to get informed
716
00:27:47,447 --> 00:27:49,916
and educated
before they are ready to speak.
717
00:27:50,016 --> 00:27:55,221
When we heard that the State
Department had classified BG
718
00:27:55,321 --> 00:27:58,992
as wrongfully detained, when
we heard from Cherelle Griner--
719
00:27:59,092 --> 00:28:02,061
BG's wife--
that she needed our help,
720
00:28:02,161 --> 00:28:03,396
we heard that through her team,
721
00:28:03,496 --> 00:28:05,932
it was go time for my,
for my members
722
00:28:06,032 --> 00:28:09,802
because this is an issue
about the sanctity of sport.
723
00:28:09,902 --> 00:28:11,270
You're right.
724
00:28:11,371 --> 00:28:13,840
She should not
be a political pawn.
725
00:28:13,940 --> 00:28:16,342
This is not a game.
726
00:28:16,442 --> 00:28:18,011
This is not the game.
727
00:28:18,111 --> 00:28:20,580
And so to see our brothers
and sisters
728
00:28:20,680 --> 00:28:22,982
across all the different
professional sports
729
00:28:23,082 --> 00:28:26,619
and so many different
organizations step up with us
730
00:28:26,719 --> 00:28:29,322
in this global sports community
731
00:28:29,422 --> 00:28:33,292
and talk about BG,
and-and talk about this case
732
00:28:33,393 --> 00:28:35,294
and talk about the need
to get her home.
733
00:28:35,395 --> 00:28:39,332
-Um, you know, that's gotten...
-Has there been...?
734
00:28:39,432 --> 00:28:42,168
That's gotten the Biden
administration's attention.
735
00:28:42,268 --> 00:28:44,237
-Right.
-And, um...
736
00:28:44,337 --> 00:28:47,106
That call that
Cherelle Griner got
737
00:28:47,206 --> 00:28:51,377
from not only the president
but the vice president
738
00:28:51,477 --> 00:28:55,148
to assure her that they
were doing everything possible
739
00:28:55,248 --> 00:28:59,752
to get BG home and
other detained Americans home.
740
00:28:59,852 --> 00:29:02,555
Well, that gave us
the assurance that we need.
741
00:29:02,655 --> 00:29:05,692
And, you know,
quite frankly, Trevor,
742
00:29:05,792 --> 00:29:08,861
what this country needs
is a rallying cry.
743
00:29:08,961 --> 00:29:11,898
And that's what
We Are BG is all about.
744
00:29:11,998 --> 00:29:14,734
It is a rallying cry,
we need a win.
745
00:29:14,834 --> 00:29:17,337
So we need to stand
with this president.
746
00:29:17,437 --> 00:29:22,075
We need him to do whatever
it takes to bring BG home.
747
00:29:22,175 --> 00:29:23,476
When you look at the situation,
748
00:29:23,576 --> 00:29:26,079
you know, through the lens
of people who are helping,
749
00:29:26,179 --> 00:29:27,447
people who aren't helping,
as you said
750
00:29:27,547 --> 00:29:30,116
there's been support,
you know, from other athletes
751
00:29:30,216 --> 00:29:32,285
who now have been given
the license to speak.
752
00:29:32,385 --> 00:29:34,887
Um, there are some who have said
it feels like
753
00:29:34,988 --> 00:29:36,589
this isn't something
that would have happened
754
00:29:36,689 --> 00:29:39,525
to, you know, one of the men's
basketball players.
755
00:29:39,625 --> 00:29:41,160
You know, if this was LeBron,
he would've been out in a week,
756
00:29:41,260 --> 00:29:42,695
is what people say.
757
00:29:42,795 --> 00:29:44,263
But it feels like
whenever dealing
758
00:29:44,364 --> 00:29:47,133
with an international incident,
there is a lot of sensitivity
759
00:29:47,233 --> 00:29:50,336
that has to come into play,
and-and so I wondered
760
00:29:50,436 --> 00:29:52,338
from your side when looking
761
00:29:52,438 --> 00:29:54,741
at people raising their voices,
et cetera,
762
00:29:54,841 --> 00:29:57,510
what are you hoping
that they would push for?
763
00:29:57,610 --> 00:29:59,512
You know, is this a situation
where you feel
764
00:29:59,612 --> 00:30:01,347
the administration
has got it handled?
765
00:30:01,447 --> 00:30:03,049
I know that her family
hasn't spoken to her.
766
00:30:03,149 --> 00:30:05,351
But-but what do you need
from the people
767
00:30:05,451 --> 00:30:07,320
or is it just everybody
having to wait
768
00:30:07,420 --> 00:30:09,555
because two governments
are having a conversation
769
00:30:09,656 --> 00:30:11,190
about a delicate issue?
770
00:30:11,290 --> 00:30:14,494
You do have to recognize
in any geopolitical system,
771
00:30:14,594 --> 00:30:17,897
um, or situation that you've
got to be sensitive, right?
772
00:30:17,997 --> 00:30:19,399
You've got to be careful.
773
00:30:19,499 --> 00:30:21,634
You've got to watch
and you've got to monitor.
774
00:30:21,734 --> 00:30:23,870
Right now, it's go time.
775
00:30:23,970 --> 00:30:27,540
Right now, what we need
from so many organizations,
776
00:30:27,640 --> 00:30:29,676
from-from so many of our fans,
777
00:30:29,776 --> 00:30:31,544
um, those in your audience,
778
00:30:31,644 --> 00:30:34,080
what we need is to unite,
779
00:30:34,180 --> 00:30:35,548
to come together,
780
00:30:35,648 --> 00:30:37,350
put politics aside,
781
00:30:37,450 --> 00:30:39,652
and let this administration know
782
00:30:39,752 --> 00:30:42,588
we want them to do
whatever it takes
783
00:30:42,689 --> 00:30:46,426
to bring wrongfully detained
Americans home.
784
00:30:46,526 --> 00:30:50,530
We need folks to go
to the WeAreBG.org website.
785
00:30:50,630 --> 00:30:51,764
Again, I'm gonna say it.
786
00:30:51,864 --> 00:30:53,633
WeAreBG.org.
787
00:30:53,733 --> 00:30:56,302
Go to that website.
Sign the petition.
788
00:30:56,402 --> 00:30:58,571
Tell folks that you have signed
the petition.
789
00:30:58,671 --> 00:31:01,874
It is important
that we get this visibility,
790
00:31:01,974 --> 00:31:04,577
um, and that we get
the awareness out there.
791
00:31:04,677 --> 00:31:06,813
Terri Jackson, thank you so much
for joining us on the show.
792
00:31:06,913 --> 00:31:08,047
All right,
we're gonna take a quick break.
793
00:31:08,147 --> 00:31:09,782
We'll be right back after this.
