Now, everyone

by the Supreme Court's
recent decision

conservatives happy
28
00:01:24,318 --> 00:01:25,919

codify Roe v. Wade.

Well, it turns out that same
Supreme Court ruling
41

it also opened the door

let's be honest,

00:02:55,609 --> 00:02:58,111
it's really strange to
be diving back into this debate
66
00:02:58,178 --> 00:03:01,648
that we thought was resolved
in 2015. Right?
67

"We're doing it now."
68
00:03:03,517 --> 00:03:05,252
What do you mean, now?
What's next--
69
00:03:05,352 --> 00:03:07,054
we gonna start arguing
about that dress again?

00:03:07,087 --> 00:03:08,589
Is that what we're doing?
'Cause it's over, guys.
71
00:03:08,689 --> 00:03:10,757
It's over.
We decided a long time ago
72
00:03:10,858 --> 00:03:12,893
it's blue and black, all right?
73
00:03:13,060 --> 00:03:15,062
And anyone who thinks
it's white and gold is a Nazi.
74
00:03:15,095 --> 00:03:18,065
Yeah, I said it. Gonna see
those colors. Nothing in there.

78
00:03:25,606 --> 00:03:27,074
So you're on the record now
79
00:03:27,107 --> 00:03:29,877
against interracial marriage?
80
00:03:29,977 --> 00:03:32,646
Like, look, I-I know mixed
couples have ruined your lives
81
00:03:32,746 --> 00:03:35,549

but I-I think it's time
82
00:03:35,649 --> 00:03:37,084
to let that go.
83
00:03:39,253 --> 00:03:40,754
I mean, I don't even know
what the argument is
84
00:03:40,854 --> 00:03:42,589
against gay marriage.
What's the argument?
85
00:03:42,689 --> 00:03:44,825
You know, when it became legal
in 2015, conservatives
86
00:03:44,925 --> 00:03:48,562
all said, "Oh, America is gonna
fall apart when this happens."
87
00:03:48,662 --> 00:03:50,130
And, yeah, it kind of did,
88
00:03:50,230 --> 00:03:52,165
but that's not
'cause of gay marriage.
89
00:03:53,867 --> 00:03:56,103
So, the bill passed
in the House, okay?
90
00:03:56,136 --> 00:03:59,840
But there's a chance it might
never even reach the Senate.
91
00:03:59,940 --> 00:04:03,710
Because, according to
one top Democratic senator,
92
00:04:03,810 --> 00:04:08,448
the Senate has "more priorities
than we have time."
93
00:04:08,549 --> 00:04:10,751
And I-I never understand is,
94
00:04:10,851 --> 00:04:12,920
what-- you don't have time?
95
00:04:13,053 --> 00:04:15,489
How long does it take?
Huh?
96
00:04:15,589 --> 00:04:16,723

three seconds, maybe?

I-I can do another one.
Look how much time I have.
100
00:04:21,828 --> 00:04:23,730
Uh, should interracial
marriage be legal?
101
00:04:23,830 --> 00:04:25,199
Boom, bam. Yes.
There. There we go, done.
102
00:04:25,299 --> 00:04:26,900
That's two votes.
Uh, let's go again.
103

be mandatory?
104
00:04:29,369 --> 00:04:32,272
Uh, this one's a little
bit harder, but, uh...
105
00:04:32,372 --> 00:04:34,208
I'm gonna say yeah, let's do it.
All the babies will be
106
00:04:34,308 --> 00:04:36,310
super cute, done.
You see that?

00:07:19,673 --> 00:07:22,109
Or they just vote based on
the name they like best.
174
00:07:22,209 --> 00:07:25,045
Yeah. I mean, how do you think
Barack Obama got elected?
175
00:07:25,145 --> 00:07:26,380
Yeah. A lot of people were like,
176
00:07:26,480 --> 00:07:28,448
"Yo, this white dude's
got a crazy-ass name.
177
00:07:28,549 --> 00:07:30,050
"I'm gonna vote for him. Mm.
178
00:07:30,150 --> 00:07:31,718
Wait, what?!"
179
00:07:33,453 --> 00:07:34,888
All right, finally,
let's move on
180
00:07:35,055 --> 00:07:36,957
from the potential downfall
of democracy
181
00:07:37,057 --> 00:07:40,561
to a more lighthearted story
about Sesame Street.
182
00:07:40,661 --> 00:07:41,828
They're racist.
183
00:07:41,929 --> 00:07:43,363
(laughter)
184
00:07:43,463 --> 00:07:46,266
Or at least that's what
they're being accused of
185
00:07:46,366 --> 00:07:49,603
after a video
at their theme park went viral.
186
00:07:49,703 --> 00:07:52,206
NEWSMAN: Sesame Street,
a place of inclusion
187
00:07:52,306 --> 00:07:54,541
and learning
for generations of kids.
188
00:07:54,641 --> 00:07:57,644
But Sesame Place, the theme park
based on characters
189
00:07:57,744 --> 00:07:59,646
from the iconic
children's TV show,
190
00:07:59,746 --> 00:08:01,849
is issuing an apology
this morning
191
00:08:02,015 --> 00:08:04,151
after backlash from this video
192
00:08:04,251 --> 00:08:07,354
showing two young Black girls
seemingly snubbed
193
00:08:07,454 --> 00:08:09,723
by a performer dressed as Rosita
194
00:08:09,823 --> 00:08:12,292
at the Sesame Place theme park
near Philadelphia.
195
00:08:12,392 --> 00:08:14,828
Sesame Place initially released
a statement saying
196
00:08:14,928 --> 00:08:16,330
that the costumes
characters wear
197
00:08:16,430 --> 00:08:18,699
sometimes make it difficult
for them to see,
198
00:08:18,799 --> 00:08:21,869
adding the Rosita performer
did not intentionally ignore
199
00:08:22,035 --> 00:08:24,638
the girls and is devastated
about the misunderstanding.
200
00:08:24,738 --> 00:08:27,641
But that statement wasn't good
enough for many on social media
201
00:08:27,741 --> 00:08:29,042
who expressed outrage.
202
00:08:29,076 --> 00:08:31,912
Now other parents
are sharing their own videos
203
00:08:32,045 --> 00:08:33,947
that they say
show similar instances
204
00:08:34,047 --> 00:08:37,050
of their children being treated
rudely compared to others,
205
00:08:37,117 --> 00:08:40,420
all seeming to show similar bias
by characters at the park.
206
00:08:40,521 --> 00:08:44,091
As a result, Sesame Place has
issued a second statement saying
207
00:08:44,191 --> 00:08:46,159
that they are committed
to making this right,
208
00:08:46,260 --> 00:08:48,428
adding they "will conduct
training for our employees
209
00:08:48,529 --> 00:08:50,764
"so they better understand,
recognize and deliver
210
00:08:50,864 --> 00:08:52,299
"an inclusive, equitable
211
00:08:52,399 --> 00:08:54,735
and entertaining experience
for our guests."
212
00:08:54,835 --> 00:08:56,270
This is some bullshit.
213
00:08:58,805 --> 00:09:00,474
These little girls
are getting snubbed
214
00:09:00,574 --> 00:09:02,209
by Rosita?
215
00:09:03,177 --> 00:09:05,045
She's not even a top-ten Muppet.
216
00:09:06,046 --> 00:09:08,148
Yeah, l-like if Elmo
or Big Bird snubs you,
217
00:09:08,248 --> 00:09:09,683
then, yeah, I get it. I get it.
They're big-time.
218
00:09:09,783 --> 00:09:12,019
But Rosita?
219
00:09:12,119 --> 00:09:13,520
That's like getting snubbed
by Hawkeye.
220
00:09:13,620 --> 00:09:15,389
My man, you should be honored
to take a selfie with me,
221
00:09:15,489 --> 00:09:17,291
you Robin Hood-ass
mother(bleep).
222
00:09:17,391 --> 00:09:19,226
(applause)
223
00:09:19,326 --> 00:09:21,762
How's Rosita
gonna ditch those kids?
224
00:09:24,131 --> 00:09:25,632
And just as an aside though,
225
00:09:25,732 --> 00:09:27,134
I don't know
if this is racism or not,
226
00:09:27,234 --> 00:09:28,869
but can we take a... a step back
227
00:09:29,036 --> 00:09:30,838
and appreciate how ironic
this outrage is?
228
00:09:30,938 --> 00:09:32,339
'Cause, basically,
what people are saying is,
229
00:09:32,439 --> 00:09:35,342
"Why won't this total stranger
touch my kids?
230
00:09:35,442 --> 00:09:37,611
"They touched the other kids!
Touch my kids!
231
00:09:37,711 --> 00:09:39,446
"Guy in a furry suit
that I don't know,
232
00:09:39,546 --> 00:09:41,348
touch my children!"
233
00:09:43,083 --> 00:09:44,551
You know,
what got me here is this--
234
00:09:44,651 --> 00:09:47,120
Sesame Place's explanation
for this whole thing
235
00:09:47,221 --> 00:09:48,455
was-was-was weird,
236
00:09:48,555 --> 00:09:51,258
because their excuse
was that it wasn't racism--
237
00:09:51,358 --> 00:09:53,060
it's just that the costumes
238
00:09:53,093 --> 00:09:56,597
make it hard to see
at lower levels.
239
00:09:56,697 --> 00:09:58,065
But...
240
00:09:58,165 --> 00:10:00,234
that's where the kids are.
241
00:10:01,235 --> 00:10:03,837
Why would you design
a costume for kids
242
00:10:03,937 --> 00:10:06,807
that can't see most kids?
243
00:10:06,907 --> 00:10:08,141
Huh? These guys are like, "Look,
244
00:10:08,242 --> 00:10:10,577
"we're more than happy
to give hugs to any children
245
00:10:10,677 --> 00:10:14,281
who are LeBron's height
or taller, okay?"
246
00:10:14,381 --> 00:10:16,450
I mean, if you can't see
at lower levels,
247
00:10:16,550 --> 00:10:18,318
wh-what happens
with the employees in the parks?
248
00:10:18,418 --> 00:10:19,853
Like, they must be so confused.
249
00:10:19,953 --> 00:10:21,088
Every day, they're
just going out. They're like,
250
00:10:21,188 --> 00:10:23,290
"Damn, no kids again?
251
00:10:23,390 --> 00:10:25,792
"Just a bunch of adult weirdos
all by themselves.
252
00:10:25,893 --> 00:10:27,427
What's going on here?"
253
00:10:28,829 --> 00:10:30,130
There's also a disconnect
between the things
254
00:10:30,230 --> 00:10:31,465
Sesame Place is saying.
255
00:10:31,565 --> 00:10:34,034
Because if this was just
an innocent misunderstanding,
256
00:10:34,134 --> 00:10:37,504
then why is Sesame Place
gonna add bias training?
257
00:10:37,604 --> 00:10:39,306
Hmm? 'Cause either
it was a mistake
258
00:10:39,406 --> 00:10:41,642
or it was racism. Can't be both.
259
00:10:41,742 --> 00:10:43,310
You know? It feels like, now,
that's what companies do.
260
00:10:43,410 --> 00:10:45,112
They just go, like, "Oh,
we're gonna do bias training."
261
00:10:45,212 --> 00:10:47,181
That's-that's what they say just
to get people off their backs.
262
00:10:47,281 --> 00:10:48,682
"Yeah, we're gonna do
bias training.
263
00:10:48,782 --> 00:10:50,083
"We're gonna read
some Ta-Nehisi Coates again.
264
00:10:50,184 --> 00:10:51,718
We got this. Ah, we'll be fine."
265
00:10:51,818 --> 00:10:53,353
'Cause what are they teaching
them in the bias training?
266
00:10:53,453 --> 00:10:54,354
What is the bias training?
267
00:10:54,454 --> 00:10:56,490
"Hey, um... so, um...
268
00:10:56,590 --> 00:10:57,624
so, you see the Black kids?"
269
00:10:57,724 --> 00:10:59,026
"Yeah, yeah."
270
00:10:59,126 --> 00:11:01,094
"Yeah, that's all you have
to do-- see the Black kids."
271
00:11:02,462 --> 00:11:04,765
(applause)
272
00:11:04,865 --> 00:11:06,166
All right, that's it
for the headlines,
273
00:11:06,266 --> 00:11:07,734
but before we go to a break,
274
00:11:07,835 --> 00:11:10,170
let's check in on all
the latest social media trends
275
00:11:10,270 --> 00:11:12,472
with our very own
Ronny Chieng, everybody!
276
00:11:12,573 --> 00:11:14,641
(applause and cheering)
277
00:11:16,443 --> 00:11:19,079
Ronny Chieng.
Good to see your face.
278
00:11:20,614 --> 00:11:21,815
So good to see you.
279
00:11:21,915 --> 00:11:24,151
All right, Trevor.
280
00:11:24,251 --> 00:11:27,421
So, so... so, Ronny, uh,
281
00:11:27,521 --> 00:11:29,590
what's, uh...
what's happening online, man?
282
00:11:29,690 --> 00:11:32,726
Oh. Oh, you really want to know?
You really want to know?
283
00:11:32,826 --> 00:11:34,962
You guys really want to know
what's trending online?
284
00:11:35,095 --> 00:11:36,463
(applause and cheering)
285
00:11:36,563 --> 00:11:38,131
You want to know
what stupid bullshit
286
00:11:38,232 --> 00:11:39,833
is trending on social media
287
00:11:39,933 --> 00:11:42,135
that we're all going
to forget about tomorrow, right?
288
00:11:42,236 --> 00:11:44,171
Because it's important.
It is so important.
289
00:11:44,271 --> 00:11:45,706
All right. All right,
let's start with the...
290
00:11:45,806 --> 00:11:49,109
the toxic cesspool
that is Twitter, all right?
291
00:11:49,176 --> 00:11:50,744
What's-what's trending
on Twitter?
292
00:11:50,844 --> 00:11:52,746
Surprise me.
Surprise me.
293
00:11:52,846 --> 00:11:54,281
Oh. Oh, Bennifer.
294
00:11:54,381 --> 00:11:57,651
-Oh, Bennifer got married again.
-(laughter)
295
00:11:57,751 --> 00:12:01,255
Oh. Oh, Bennifer
got married again!
296
00:12:01,355 --> 00:12:03,957
Big deal.
People get married every day.
297
00:12:04,057 --> 00:12:06,693
These guys got married in Vegas,
okay?
298
00:12:06,793 --> 00:12:08,929
They didn't even
put in any effort.
299
00:12:09,062 --> 00:12:11,665
For all we know,
they were drunk.
300
00:12:11,765 --> 00:12:14,468
Okay, and now because, what,
two 60-year-old drunk people
301
00:12:14,568 --> 00:12:16,069
got married by Elvis,
302
00:12:16,136 --> 00:12:18,805
now the whole world's
gonna talk about it. Oh.
303
00:12:18,906 --> 00:12:21,508
I mean, they broke my heart
the first time.
304
00:12:21,608 --> 00:12:23,277
And-and now
you just want me to, what,
305
00:12:23,377 --> 00:12:25,779
just believe in love again, huh?
306
00:12:25,879 --> 00:12:28,215
Jenny... from the block?
307
00:12:28,315 --> 00:12:32,286
And Ben Affleck from... Dogma?
308
00:12:32,386 --> 00:12:34,488
(laughter)
309
00:12:34,588 --> 00:12:36,290
Look, please.
I'm not getting invested
310
00:12:36,390 --> 00:12:37,958
in this again, all right?
Let's just...
311
00:12:38,091 --> 00:12:40,327
Let's just see what's trending
on Instagram, all right?
312
00:12:40,427 --> 00:12:43,230
Instagram!
Oh, what's on the Gram now?
313
00:12:43,330 --> 00:12:44,898
Let's-let's... let...
314
00:12:44,998 --> 00:12:46,233
Oh, wait. Let me guess.
315
00:12:46,333 --> 00:12:47,568
Let me guess
what's on Instagram.
316
00:12:47,668 --> 00:12:49,436
Oh, is it just the stuff
that was trending
317
00:12:49,536 --> 00:12:52,673
-on TikTok two weeks ago?
-(laughter)
318
00:12:52,773 --> 00:12:54,508
What's the matter,
Instagrammers?
319
00:12:54,608 --> 00:12:57,110
You don't have your own ideas?
What happened?
320
00:12:57,211 --> 00:13:00,447
You ran out of pictures
of your feet in the sand?
321
00:13:00,547 --> 00:13:01,882
Why don't you take a picture
of your book next
322
00:13:02,049 --> 00:13:04,818
to your avocado toast
with some flowers on it?
323
00:13:04,918 --> 00:13:07,154
All right, let's just go
324
00:13:07,254 --> 00:13:11,058
straight to the source of the
arbiter of human culture now.
325
00:13:11,158 --> 00:13:12,559
That is TikTok, right?
326
00:13:12,659 --> 00:13:14,628
That is where
all our culture comes from--
327
00:13:14,728 --> 00:13:16,897
what's trending
on TikTok these days.
328
00:13:17,064 --> 00:13:19,833
Oh, it's this big trend
called, uh, uh,
329
00:13:19,933 --> 00:13:22,503
"The Put Your Shoes On
Challenge."
330
00:13:22,603 --> 00:13:25,973
It's where... it's where
a parent tricks their kid
331
00:13:26,073 --> 00:13:29,076
into thinking they have to
help them fight another parent
332
00:13:29,142 --> 00:13:31,111
and their kid, okay?
333
00:13:31,211 --> 00:13:32,546
So, let's just watch this clip,
334
00:13:32,646 --> 00:13:34,615
but hang on
to your final brain cells.
335
00:13:34,715 --> 00:13:38,952
-(laughter) -Okay? Because
this one sounds dumb as shit.
336
00:13:39,086 --> 00:13:40,487
-WOMAN: Put your shoes on now.
-Why?
337
00:13:40,587 --> 00:13:42,956
Because I'm gonna go fight
this girl,
338
00:13:43,090 --> 00:13:45,626
and if her son comes out,
I need you to fight him.
339
00:13:45,726 --> 00:13:47,394
Okay.
340
00:13:47,494 --> 00:13:49,863
I'm gonna beat her eye up.
341
00:13:49,963 --> 00:13:51,632
Mama.
342
00:13:51,732 --> 00:13:54,001
I will be like this and bop.
343
00:13:54,101 --> 00:13:56,136
I will knock her head off.
344
00:13:56,236 --> 00:13:58,172
(laughter, groaning)
345
00:13:58,272 --> 00:14:00,374
Okay, you know what?
You know what?
346
00:14:00,474 --> 00:14:02,509
I think I change my mind
on this one, okay?
347
00:14:02,609 --> 00:14:04,244
'Cause when I first heard
about this,
348
00:14:04,344 --> 00:14:07,681
I thought it was a terrible
idea because it's the Internet.
349
00:14:07,781 --> 00:14:11,418
But you know what? I actually
do support child violence, okay?
350
00:14:11,518 --> 00:14:14,254
-NOAH (laughing): What?
-So, I'm all for this.
351
00:14:14,354 --> 00:14:17,090
But the only bad thing that
I can see about this challenge
352
00:14:17,191 --> 00:14:20,227
-is that you don't actually get
to see the fights. -(laughter)
353
00:14:20,327 --> 00:14:24,097
Yo, let's see the fights, man.
Commit to the bit, okay?
354
00:14:24,198 --> 00:14:25,799
I want to see some blood.
355
00:14:25,899 --> 00:14:29,069
Even if your kid isn't good
at fighting, you as the adult,
356
00:14:29,102 --> 00:14:32,139
when you're fighting, you can
use your kid as a weapon, right?
357
00:14:32,239 --> 00:14:34,374
'Cause they're... they're
small enough to fight with.
358
00:14:34,474 --> 00:14:37,077
You got a skinny kid? Yo,
just toss them like a spear.
359
00:14:37,177 --> 00:14:38,745
All right?
You got a toddler?
360
00:14:38,846 --> 00:14:41,248
Yo, canon ball.
Just canon ball them.
361
00:14:41,348 --> 00:14:43,317
You got twins? You got twins,
just connect them by the head,
362
00:14:43,417 --> 00:14:45,152
and now you got nunchucks,
all right?
363
00:14:45,252 --> 00:14:47,287
Okay? And now, I know.
364
00:14:47,387 --> 00:14:49,389
I already know
people in the comment section--
365
00:14:49,489 --> 00:14:51,658
I can already hear them
just complaining.
366
00:14:51,758 --> 00:14:53,527
"Oh, this is bad parenting.
367
00:14:53,627 --> 00:14:56,129
"You can't encourage fighting
with your kid.
368
00:14:56,230 --> 00:14:58,799
It's bad parenting."
Well, you know what?
369
00:14:58,899 --> 00:15:01,034
If your kid is willing
to fight for you,
370
00:15:01,068 --> 00:15:05,572
no questions asked, that means
you are a great parent, right?
371
00:15:05,672 --> 00:15:09,042
-(applause and cheering)
-That's right.
372
00:15:09,109 --> 00:15:12,179
Now, on the other hand,
if you're...
373
00:15:12,279 --> 00:15:13,881
If you tell your kid,
"Hey, let's go fight,"
374
00:15:14,047 --> 00:15:15,315
and your kid's like,
"Hey, wait a minute.
375
00:15:15,415 --> 00:15:16,650
Let's hear both sides,"
376
00:15:16,750 --> 00:15:18,585
that means
you (bleep) up, all right?
377
00:15:18,685 --> 00:15:22,122
I mean, look at me. Look at me.
I love my mom, okay?
378
00:15:22,222 --> 00:15:23,790
I love my mom so much,
I'd beat the shit out
379
00:15:23,891 --> 00:15:27,127
of any baby for my mom, right?
Yeah, I see a baby.
380
00:15:27,227 --> 00:15:28,629
I'm like, "Yo, don't even
get out of the stroller.
381
00:15:28,729 --> 00:15:30,464
"Do not even get out
of the stroller, all right?
382
00:15:30,564 --> 00:15:33,066
Yeah. 'Cause
Mama Chieng says hi." Boom!
383
00:15:33,100 --> 00:15:34,835
Yeah, straight
in the umbilical cord.
384
00:15:34,935 --> 00:15:37,771
Yeah. Boom! That's right.
Back to you, Trevor.
385
00:15:37,871 --> 00:15:40,207
-(grunting)
-Back to me. Are you...?
386
00:15:40,307 --> 00:15:43,143
(grunting)
387
00:15:43,243 --> 00:15:46,079
Fight babies all day.
Come on.
388
00:15:46,180 --> 00:15:49,082
-Nine to 24 months, anytime.
-(laughter, groaning)
389
00:15:49,183 --> 00:15:51,084
Well, good luck with that.
Ronny Chieng, everybody.
390
00:15:51,185 --> 00:15:52,819
(applause and cheering)
391
00:15:52,920 --> 00:15:55,155
Something tells me
he doesn't like social media.
392
00:15:55,255 --> 00:15:57,824
All right, when we come back,
Dulcé Sloan has some beef
393
00:15:57,925 --> 00:15:59,626
with The Cat in the Hat.
You don't want to miss it.
394
00:15:59,726 --> 00:16:01,695
-You can't fight babies.
-(applause and cheering)
395
00:16:09,779 --> 00:16:11,814
(cheering, applause)
396
00:16:19,455 --> 00:16:22,124
Welcome back to The Daily Show.
397
00:16:22,224 --> 00:16:25,995
We-we all remember our favorite
books from when we were kids.
398
00:16:26,095 --> 00:16:28,264
I mean, unless were
you born after 2000--
399
00:16:28,364 --> 00:16:31,167
then we all remember
our favorite YouTube videos.
400
00:16:31,267 --> 00:16:33,469
But those classic
children's books
401
00:16:33,569 --> 00:16:36,706
had a big blind spot that
you might have never noticed.
402
00:16:36,806 --> 00:16:40,910
And Dulcé Sloan points it out in
another episode of Dul-Sayin'.
403
00:16:41,010 --> 00:16:43,045
♪ ♪
404
00:16:47,016 --> 00:16:49,652
Yo, who cares about Spot?
There are snakes in this house!
405
00:16:49,752 --> 00:16:51,120
Get out of there!
406
00:16:51,220 --> 00:16:53,856
Oh. (short chuckle)
Hello friends.
407
00:16:53,956 --> 00:16:57,626
Didn't see you there. Just
doing a little light reading.
408
00:16:57,727 --> 00:16:58,961
I know some of you
might be wondering,
409
00:16:59,061 --> 00:17:01,230
"Dulcé, why are you
reading a children's book?"
410
00:17:01,330 --> 00:17:02,665
And to you I say
411
00:17:02,765 --> 00:17:05,368
why are you minding
a Black woman's business?
412
00:17:05,468 --> 00:17:07,103
But if you must know,
I'm reading these kids books
413
00:17:07,203 --> 00:17:09,205
because of how
important they are.
414
00:17:09,305 --> 00:17:10,906
The fact is children's books
play a big role
415
00:17:11,007 --> 00:17:13,709
in shaping our views as adults,
whether it's about race,
416
00:17:13,876 --> 00:17:17,313
culture or proper
pooping etiquette.
417
00:17:17,413 --> 00:17:19,048
But one of the areas
that influence kids the most
418
00:17:19,148 --> 00:17:21,317
is gender roles,
and that's a big problem.
419
00:17:21,417 --> 00:17:22,985
Because when it comes to gender,
420
00:17:23,085 --> 00:17:24,587
most of these books
are more outdated
421
00:17:24,687 --> 00:17:27,123
than a pair of JNCO Jeans.
422
00:17:27,223 --> 00:17:28,591
I mean,
why were they so big?
423
00:17:28,691 --> 00:17:30,760
Were you trying to sneak
Kevin Hart into the movie?
424
00:17:30,893 --> 00:17:33,429
'Cause chances are
he's already in it.
425
00:17:33,529 --> 00:17:36,032
But speaking of little people,
this is something we should
426
00:17:36,132 --> 00:17:39,001
all be paying attention to,
because by the age of seven,
427
00:17:39,101 --> 00:17:41,537
children's ideas about what
they can be when they grow up
428
00:17:41,637 --> 00:17:42,972
are already formed.
429
00:17:43,072 --> 00:17:44,774
And what do you think
those ideas are gonna be
430
00:17:44,907 --> 00:17:47,176
when they've been
reading books like this?
431
00:17:47,276 --> 00:17:50,780
Dick and Jane, the book series
that almost every first grader
432
00:17:50,913 --> 00:17:53,082
was reading
in the 1950s and '60s.
433
00:17:53,182 --> 00:17:54,383
And it was notorious
434
00:17:54,483 --> 00:17:56,619
for portraying stereotypical
gender roles.
435
00:17:56,719 --> 00:17:58,621
Look at that--
the dad and the brother
436
00:17:58,721 --> 00:18:00,756
are out playing with Spot
437
00:18:00,923 --> 00:18:02,692
and the mom is inside
cleaning up spots.
438
00:18:02,792 --> 00:18:04,460
I mean, what is that--
a puddle of pee?
439
00:18:04,560 --> 00:18:06,495
Was R. Kelly
their dinner guest?
440
00:18:06,595 --> 00:18:08,331
And look at poor Jane
in this one.
441
00:18:08,431 --> 00:18:09,598
She can't even
have a little fun
442
00:18:09,699 --> 00:18:11,067
without doing some chores?
443
00:18:11,167 --> 00:18:13,936
Can't a girl just roller-skate?
She has to sweep, too?
444
00:18:14,036 --> 00:18:15,471
What's next,
she's gonna have to jump rope
445
00:18:15,571 --> 00:18:16,906
while making a sandwich?
446
00:18:17,006 --> 00:18:18,374
But this Leave It to Beaver
bullshit
447
00:18:18,474 --> 00:18:20,776
wasn't just happening
in the 1950s.
448
00:18:20,876 --> 00:18:22,278
Even in the '90s,
449
00:18:22,378 --> 00:18:25,314
the four main jobs women
and girls held in picture books
450
00:18:25,414 --> 00:18:27,516
were scullery maid, daughter,
451
00:18:27,616 --> 00:18:29,051
princess, and mother,
452
00:18:29,151 --> 00:18:31,921
while men and boys
got to be things like detective,
453
00:18:32,021 --> 00:18:34,056
aircraft inventor, and knight.
454
00:18:34,156 --> 00:18:35,224
And let me just say,
455
00:18:35,324 --> 00:18:37,293
I've been on dating apps
for a long time now,
456
00:18:37,393 --> 00:18:40,062
and I've never met
an "aircraft inventor."
457
00:18:40,162 --> 00:18:42,298
If there's a man claiming that
on his profile,
458
00:18:42,398 --> 00:18:45,067
chances are the only thing
he's invented is debt.
459
00:18:45,167 --> 00:18:46,736
And it's not just men and women
460
00:18:46,902 --> 00:18:48,738
getting boxed into
old-school careers.
461
00:18:48,904 --> 00:18:51,340
These books are teaching them
how they're supposed to behave
462
00:18:51,440 --> 00:18:52,908
in just day-to-day life.
463
00:18:52,975 --> 00:18:55,311
You can see this in one
the most famous children's books
464
00:18:55,411 --> 00:18:57,546
of all time, The Cat in the Hat.
465
00:18:57,647 --> 00:18:59,649
It features a little boy
and his sister Sally.
466
00:18:59,749 --> 00:19:01,384
And while the little boy
is the narrator,
467
00:19:01,484 --> 00:19:03,552
Sally doesn't get to talk
at all.
468
00:19:03,653 --> 00:19:05,488
She doesn't get to do anything!
469
00:19:05,588 --> 00:19:07,089
She just follows her brother
around
470
00:19:07,189 --> 00:19:09,525
like she's the Grim Reaper
and he's Joe Biden.
471
00:19:09,625 --> 00:19:11,961
The only action
she does get to do
472
00:19:12,061 --> 00:19:13,996
is get tangled up
in a kite string.
473
00:19:14,096 --> 00:19:16,632
So she's not allowed to talk
and she's clumsy?
474
00:19:16,732 --> 00:19:20,102
And just look at how many books
are dedicated to finding Waldo.
475
00:19:20,202 --> 00:19:23,639
But no one is asking,
"Where's Wanda?"
476
00:19:23,739 --> 00:19:25,875
And she's been missing
for 20 years now.
477
00:19:25,908 --> 00:19:27,109
You'd think
you could escape this problem
478
00:19:27,209 --> 00:19:28,978
by just reading
children's books about animals.
479
00:19:29,078 --> 00:19:30,313
But nope.
480
00:19:30,413 --> 00:19:33,783
Even in those books, the main
animal character is male
481
00:19:33,883 --> 00:19:35,484
way more often than female.
482
00:19:35,584 --> 00:19:36,886
So, basically,
483
00:19:36,952 --> 00:19:39,655
if you want kids to learn
equal gender representation
484
00:19:39,755 --> 00:19:41,891
from animals, you got
to take 'em to the zoo.
485
00:19:41,957 --> 00:19:43,192
But good luck with that,
486
00:19:43,292 --> 00:19:44,360
'cause then you'll have
to explain
487
00:19:44,460 --> 00:19:46,962
why these animals are in jail.
488
00:19:47,063 --> 00:19:49,565
And the stereotypes
go all the way to plants.
489
00:19:49,665 --> 00:19:50,933
Just look at The Giving Tree.
490
00:19:51,033 --> 00:19:53,436
The tree is female-coded
and acts as a caregiver
491
00:19:53,536 --> 00:19:55,471
to the human male character.
492
00:19:55,571 --> 00:19:58,107
That motherly tree
gave that boy everything--
493
00:19:58,207 --> 00:19:59,775
shade, apples,
494
00:19:59,909 --> 00:20:01,544
even wood to build a home.
495
00:20:01,644 --> 00:20:03,646
And what did he do
to pay her back?
496
00:20:03,746 --> 00:20:05,982
Turned her into Ikea furniture.
497
00:20:06,082 --> 00:20:07,183
Mm.
498
00:20:07,283 --> 00:20:08,617
And while things are starting
to improve,
499
00:20:08,718 --> 00:20:10,553
there's still a long way to go.
500
00:20:10,653 --> 00:20:12,321
Just back in 2017,
501
00:20:12,421 --> 00:20:14,156
the best seller list
of children's books
502
00:20:14,256 --> 00:20:15,891
was still skewing way more male.
503
00:20:15,992 --> 00:20:17,893
It was like the kid section
of Barnes & Noble was curated
504
00:20:17,994 --> 00:20:19,628
by Joe Rogan fans.
505
00:20:19,729 --> 00:20:21,998
So even though most of the books
at the children's library
506
00:20:22,098 --> 00:20:24,700
perpetuate these old-fashioned
gender ideas,
507
00:20:24,867 --> 00:20:27,737
the good news is, the options
get better every year
508
00:20:27,870 --> 00:20:30,072
as authors work hard
to break these norms
509
00:20:30,172 --> 00:20:32,274
and depict women
as inventors and scientists,
510
00:20:32,375 --> 00:20:34,043
or as strong and brave.
511
00:20:34,143 --> 00:20:36,879
I'm doing my part, and I wrote
a children's book myself.
512
00:20:36,912 --> 00:20:39,015
It's a classic tale,
but with a female character
513
00:20:39,115 --> 00:20:41,183
who breaks gender norms.
It's called
514
00:20:41,283 --> 00:20:44,520
No Broke Dick and Jane
by Dulcé Sloan.
515
00:20:44,620 --> 00:20:46,656
(clears throat)
516
00:21:12,948 --> 00:21:14,684
The end.
517
00:21:14,850 --> 00:21:17,186
See, it's easy to write
children's stories
518
00:21:17,286 --> 00:21:19,855
that show women can be strong,
confident,
519
00:21:19,922 --> 00:21:22,858
and hold romantic partners
to higher financial standards.
520
00:21:22,958 --> 00:21:26,595
So, let's give our children
the Janes they deserve,
521
00:21:26,696 --> 00:21:30,199
not the broke Dicks
they've been getting.

Marcel the Shell with Shoes on.

This is my stockpile.
536
00:22:07,903 --> 00:22:09,305
All right, so, you got
your basics here.
537
00:22:09,405 --> 00:22:11,574
I got a couple of almonds.

I have a dozen peanuts.
It's basically your dry goods.
539
00:22:14,243 --> 00:22:16,679
You got a craisin with raisins,
but the craisin
540
00:22:16,779 --> 00:22:19,548
sits to the side
because it is a treat.

From one of the people

to have you back,
especially for this project,
555

because, you know,
I had heard nothing
556

-about this movie as an idea,
as a concept. -Mm-hmm.
557
00:23:08,364 --> 00:23:10,266
I didn't know about it
when it went viral,
558
00:23:10,366 --> 00:23:12,435
but I was sitting
in-in the movie theater--
559
00:23:12,535 --> 00:23:13,669
I'll never forget this--
and you know, they're playing
560

-all the trailers.
-Yes.
561
00:23:15,337 --> 00:23:17,440
And it was interesting, 'cause
all the trailers that came on
562
00:23:17,540 --> 00:23:19,008
were for, like, action movies,
'cause I think I was watching
563
00:23:19,108 --> 00:23:20,509
Everything Everywhere
All At Once,
564
00:23:20,609 --> 00:23:21,977

by the way. -Yes.
565
00:23:22,078 --> 00:23:24,280
-That's true.
-Right. So, I'm sitting there,
566
00:23:24,380 --> 00:23:26,582
watching the trailers, trailers,
it's like, action movie,
567
00:23:26,682 --> 00:23:29,151
action movie, action movie,
and then the shell comes on...
568
00:23:29,251 --> 00:23:32,955
-Sure -and everyone in the movie
theater was just like, "Ah...
569
00:23:32,988 --> 00:23:34,857
Ah." And we-we instantly
fell in love,
570
00:23:34,957 --> 00:23:37,059
and I remember going,
"What-- Who-who made this?
571
00:23:37,159 --> 00:23:39,228
What is this?
Who-who came up with it?"
572
00:23:39,328 --> 00:23:41,397
And everybody loves it.
Just like, almost, like,
573
00:23:41,497 --> 00:23:44,100
100% on Rotten Tomatoes.
Everyone is raving
574
00:23:44,200 --> 00:23:46,635

things first: congratulations.

secondly...

-let's get into the how
behind all of this. -Sure.
578
00:23:55,144 --> 00:23:57,046
If someone said to me,
"You're gonna make a movie
579
00:23:57,146 --> 00:24:00,182
about a shell with a little,
580
00:24:00,282 --> 00:24:03,085
-like, googly eye..."
-Yeah.
581
00:24:03,185 --> 00:24:04,987
I'd be like, "I don't think
this is gonna work."
582
00:24:05,087 --> 00:24:07,323
And yet... it-it works.
583
00:24:07,423 --> 00:24:08,924
Take it from the beginning.
584
00:24:08,991 --> 00:24:11,027
-Please explain
the concept to me. -Okay, sure.
585
00:24:11,127 --> 00:24:12,795
So, um... (chuckles)
586
00:24:12,928 --> 00:24:14,163
I also think you're right--
there's
587
00:24:14,263 --> 00:24:16,966
absolutely no way
to pitch this movie.
588
00:24:17,066 --> 00:24:19,735
Um, and it's a big vote
for, like,
589
00:24:19,835 --> 00:24:21,003
if you have an idea
and you're not sure
590
00:24:21,103 --> 00:24:22,371
how to explain it, maybe just
591
00:24:22,471 --> 00:24:25,107
-try to find a way to do it.
Um-- -I love that.
592
00:24:25,207 --> 00:24:26,642
Yeah, and I-I think--
593
00:24:26,742 --> 00:24:28,544
So, I was, like,
doing the voice first.
594
00:24:28,644 --> 00:24:30,346
Um, I was with
595
00:24:30,446 --> 00:24:33,115
Dean Fleischer-Camp, who I--
directed this film.
596
00:24:33,215 --> 00:24:35,818
And he and I were at a
wedding and, uh, we were
597
00:24:35,951 --> 00:24:37,953
sharing a hotel room with, like,
four other people
598
00:24:37,987 --> 00:24:39,221
because we were
trying to save money.
599
00:24:39,321 --> 00:24:42,291
-It was about 12 years ago.
-So, wait, this--
600
00:24:42,391 --> 00:24:43,793
that means it's
a destination wedding.
601
00:24:43,959 --> 00:24:47,063
It-it was Connecticut.
602
00:24:47,163 --> 00:24:49,398
Take it or leave it, you know?
603
00:24:49,498 --> 00:24:52,802
That's what they chose.
Yeah. Um,
604
00:24:52,902 --> 00:24:56,338
and we were-we were sharing
a room with a bunch of friends.
605
00:24:56,439 --> 00:24:58,941
I may have been
having some cocktails.
606
00:24:59,041 --> 00:25:01,477
-You know, we'll never know.
-Okay, okay.
607
00:25:01,577 --> 00:25:03,913
We'll never know.
Uh, but, uh,
608
00:25:03,946 --> 00:25:06,082
it was really squished in
there, and I started being like,
609
00:25:06,182 --> 00:25:08,317
like, doing this little voice.
Like, being like,
610
00:25:08,417 --> 00:25:10,152
(as Marcel):
"You guys are, like,
611
00:25:10,252 --> 00:25:12,922
really, really stepping on me"
and stuff like that.
612
00:25:12,988 --> 00:25:15,257
It's hard to hear.
But anyway, I was doing it.
613
00:25:15,358 --> 00:25:17,026
Um, and Dean was like,
614
00:25:17,126 --> 00:25:18,527
"You know, I have to make a
short film
615
00:25:18,627 --> 00:25:20,563
"for my friend's comedy show.
Could I interview you
616
00:25:20,663 --> 00:25:23,699
in that character, whatever
that is?" And I was like,
617
00:25:23,799 --> 00:25:27,536
"Yeah, 'cause I lo-I love
an interview, honestly."
618
00:25:27,636 --> 00:25:30,573
I was like, "Yes, anybody
asking anything, for sure."
619
00:25:30,673 --> 00:25:34,043
And so, um,
he asked me some questions
620
00:25:34,143 --> 00:25:35,745
and the character
started to emerge.
621
00:25:35,845 --> 00:25:38,581
He did the character design,
he stuck a googly eye
622
00:25:38,681 --> 00:25:40,383
-and a shell and, you know,
-Yes.
623
00:25:40,483 --> 00:25:42,218
glued the shoes and everything.
And we had this
624
00:25:42,318 --> 00:25:43,953
sort of, like, interview-based
short film
625
00:25:44,053 --> 00:25:45,755
that we ended up
putting it on the Internet
626
00:25:45,855 --> 00:25:47,957
because someone
at the comedy show was like,
627
00:25:48,057 --> 00:25:50,026
"Could you put this online?
I want to show it to my mom."
628
00:25:50,126 --> 00:25:53,029
Um, and we just thought
this, like--
629
00:25:53,129 --> 00:25:54,897
these two people might see it.
630
00:25:54,964 --> 00:25:57,066
-And... -It was a lot more
than two people.
631
00:25:57,166 --> 00:25:59,068
-It was a lot more.
-It was-- it was more-- A lot--
632
00:25:59,168 --> 00:26:01,437
-Millions more than two people
saw it. -Yeah. Yeah.
633
00:26:01,537 --> 00:26:04,473
It was, like,
over 36 million people.
634
00:26:04,573 --> 00:26:05,908
-(cheering and applause)
-Yeah. -Right?
635
00:26:06,008 --> 00:26:06,909
I know.
636
00:26:07,009 --> 00:26:08,310
And so...
637
00:26:09,712 --> 00:26:11,614
I mean, at that point,
the story's not-- It's not done.
638
00:26:11,714 --> 00:26:13,382
It's not like it's like, "Oh,
36 million, then it's a movie."
639
00:26:13,482 --> 00:26:15,384
-Right. -Because it-it took you
seven years to turn this
640
00:26:15,484 --> 00:26:16,719
into the feature film.
641
00:26:16,819 --> 00:26:18,454
Yeah. Yeah, it, um...
642
00:26:18,554 --> 00:26:20,423
The-the film itself
took seven years.
643
00:26:20,523 --> 00:26:23,325
We first started
with the audio recording.
644
00:26:23,426 --> 00:26:25,061
And a lot of it
was, like, improvised.
645
00:26:25,161 --> 00:26:29,131
And then we would write, uh,
scenes based on the improv
646
00:26:29,231 --> 00:26:31,367
and, uh, eventually ended up
with a script.
647
00:26:31,467 --> 00:26:32,735
That took about three years.
648
00:26:32,835 --> 00:26:34,937
And then we did
the live-action shoot
649
00:26:34,970 --> 00:26:36,172
-and then the stop-motion.
-Right.
650
00:26:36,272 --> 00:26:38,274
And it's gor-- The way they move
is gorgeous as well.
651
00:26:38,374 --> 00:26:39,942
It's, like, just, like,
little, tiny, little, like,
652
00:26:39,975 --> 00:26:42,011
-hoppy, steppy, you know?
-Yeah, yeah.
653
00:26:42,111 --> 00:26:45,614
I like that it is--
Our-our animation director,
654
00:26:45,715 --> 00:26:48,317
Kirsten Lepore, made, like,
such beautiful animation.
655
00:26:48,417 --> 00:26:50,586
-It's not super smooth,
you know? -Yes. Yeah.
656
00:26:50,686 --> 00:26:52,988
It's just real enough that,
like,
657
00:26:53,089 --> 00:26:55,091
you could almost see it out
of the corner of your eye.
658
00:26:55,191 --> 00:26:56,959
Can I tell you, what-what
I love about this story--
659
00:26:57,059 --> 00:26:59,495
First of all, there are
very few original movies
660
00:26:59,595 --> 00:27:00,896
-that you watch these days,
right? -Mmm.
661
00:27:00,930 --> 00:27:02,398
Movies will be, like, oh,
the sequel of the sequel
662
00:27:02,498 --> 00:27:05,134
-of the sequel or the prequel
before the sequel, right? -Yeah.
663
00:27:05,234 --> 00:27:06,669
-Got to get that prequel.
-And then-- You got to get
664
00:27:06,769 --> 00:27:07,937
-the prequel in. Um...
-Find out about it.
665
00:27:08,037 --> 00:27:09,305
And then the spin-off
and then the spin-off
666
00:27:09,405 --> 00:27:11,340
-to the sequel prequel.
But-but this is... -(laughs)
667
00:27:11,440 --> 00:27:12,808
It's such an original idea,
668
00:27:12,908 --> 00:27:15,945
and it's-it's
surprisingly heart-wrenching.
669
00:27:16,045 --> 00:27:18,047
I never thought
I would watch a movie where--
670
00:27:18,147 --> 00:27:19,915
Obviously, you're laughing.
I was like, "I'm gonna laugh,
671
00:27:20,015 --> 00:27:21,717
'cause the shell, you know,
with the eye."
672
00:27:21,817 --> 00:27:22,985
-But then...
-Yeah.
673
00:27:23,085 --> 00:27:24,320
But then there's moments
where I'm just like, "Hmm.
674
00:27:24,420 --> 00:27:27,123
-Oh, the shell."
-(laughing)
675
00:27:27,223 --> 00:27:29,458
It's-it's a really emotional
story that you've told.
676
00:27:29,558 --> 00:27:31,260
It's-it's
a feel-good story as well.
677
00:27:31,360 --> 00:27:33,429
Yeah, yeah. I think, um,
678
00:27:33,529 --> 00:27:35,364
one thing
that I'm interested in is, like,
679
00:27:35,464 --> 00:27:37,700
how those can exist at once.
680
00:27:37,800 --> 00:27:39,602
I know, like,
I certainly live that way--
681
00:27:39,702 --> 00:27:42,605
that I can experience,
like, grief and loss
682
00:27:42,705 --> 00:27:45,241
while also trying
to live a-a life
683
00:27:45,341 --> 00:27:47,243
-that feels satisfying
on a daily basis. -Mm-hmm.
684
00:27:47,343 --> 00:27:49,512
-Mm-hmm. -And, um, that is,
like, one of the things
685
00:27:49,612 --> 00:27:50,880
that's built into the film.
686
00:27:50,980 --> 00:27:52,281
And I think, um...
687
00:27:52,381 --> 00:27:53,482
I think it is funny,
688
00:27:53,582 --> 00:27:55,217
and I think
also there are a lot of adults
689
00:27:55,317 --> 00:27:57,153
that end up crying
during the movie.
690
00:27:57,253 --> 00:27:59,188
-(soft awwing) -Which is good.
I think it's good. -Oh, yeah.
691
00:27:59,288 --> 00:28:00,556
And everybody made a noise.
692
00:28:00,656 --> 00:28:01,957
-Yeah, yeah.
-(laughter)
693
00:28:02,058 --> 00:28:03,759
I think it's good. I think
more adults should be crying
694
00:28:03,893 --> 00:28:05,561
-in more movies. Um...
-I think so.
695
00:28:05,661 --> 00:28:09,498
The-the stories that I feel like
you-you like to tell
696
00:28:09,598 --> 00:28:11,901
don't just involve, like,
voices and, you know...
697
00:28:11,934 --> 00:28:13,469
and heartwarming issues,
but it's like
698
00:28:13,569 --> 00:28:15,538
there's something
that I feel connects you
699
00:28:15,638 --> 00:28:17,339
or-or that you're attracted to
700
00:28:17,440 --> 00:28:20,242
in telling an adult story
to kids
701
00:28:20,342 --> 00:28:22,545
that's almost secretly going
to adults, you know?
702
00:28:22,645 --> 00:28:24,914
I-I wonder, are you gonna--
are you gonna do more of this?
703
00:28:24,980 --> 00:28:27,016
Are you gonna make any-- You
know, do you have any dreams,
704
00:28:27,116 --> 00:28:29,285
for instance, of making
any kids' shows or...?
705
00:28:29,385 --> 00:28:31,220
Yeah. Well,
first of all, yes, I do.
706
00:28:31,320 --> 00:28:33,522
And I think you're right.
I do like stuff like that.
707
00:28:33,622 --> 00:28:35,257
Because I feel like...
708
00:28:35,358 --> 00:28:38,327
children are actually capable
of, like,
709
00:28:38,427 --> 00:28:42,465
feeling huge, vibrant, and-and
sometimes overwhelming feelings.
710
00:28:42,565 --> 00:28:44,934
-Mm-hmm. -And it's-it's good
to, like, give them a space
711
00:28:45,034 --> 00:28:46,635
to try that out and say,
712
00:28:46,736 --> 00:28:49,505
"Yeah, you're, like, really
strong enough to do this."
713
00:28:49,605 --> 00:28:50,906
But, also,
there are so many adults
714
00:28:51,006 --> 00:28:52,441
who weren't given
that opportunity.
715
00:28:52,541 --> 00:28:54,877
So it's nice for them to see
something where they see,
716
00:28:54,977 --> 00:28:56,879
like, a young or small thing
717
00:28:56,979 --> 00:28:58,881
really making it work
in that way.
718
00:28:58,981 --> 00:29:01,050
But, um, I think--
719
00:29:01,150 --> 00:29:03,953
You know, I would really like it
if I had my own show
720
00:29:04,053 --> 00:29:06,255
for children and people.
721
00:29:06,355 --> 00:29:08,524
-Um, I-I grew up, like...
-What-what would it be?
722
00:29:08,624 --> 00:29:09,959
Like, I think it would be nice--
723
00:29:10,059 --> 00:29:11,394
I-I like to say
724
00:29:11,494 --> 00:29:13,996
somewhere between Pee-wee
and Mr. Rogers.
725
00:29:14,096 --> 00:29:15,164
(laughter)
726
00:29:15,264 --> 00:29:17,366
-But with a woman. Yeah.
-Okay, okay, okay, okay.
727
00:29:17,466 --> 00:29:18,534
Yeah. I don't want
to give it to a man.
728
00:29:18,634 --> 00:29:19,969
I want it to be me.
729
00:29:20,069 --> 00:29:22,104
-Yeah. (laughs)
-You take it. -(cheering)
730
00:29:22,204 --> 00:29:24,607
-Are you kidding me? No. -Sorry,
I want it. Yeah, I want it.
731
00:29:24,707 --> 00:29:26,942
-There's no sorry. There's
no sorry. -Yeah, yeah, yeah.
732
00:29:27,043 --> 00:29:29,545
Um... So, I-I, uh...
733
00:29:29,645 --> 00:29:30,913
I love animation.
734
00:29:30,980 --> 00:29:32,748
Um, I've always been a fan
of you,
735
00:29:32,915 --> 00:29:35,151
because I-I love people
who do different voices
736
00:29:35,251 --> 00:29:36,285
-in-in...
-Mm-hmm.
737
00:29:36,385 --> 00:29:38,020
Because, like,
that's what animation is.
738
00:29:38,120 --> 00:29:40,022
You-You've done everything.
You know... (stammers)
739
00:29:40,122 --> 00:29:42,091
You've done this.
Uh, you know, you did, um...
740
00:29:42,191 --> 00:29:43,325
You were in, um...
741
00:29:43,426 --> 00:29:45,728
I want to say it was,
uh, Big Mouth.
742
00:29:45,828 --> 00:29:47,930
-And I want to say it was
Zootopia as well. -Yeah. Yeah.
743
00:29:48,030 --> 00:29:51,000
Yes. And, every time,
your voice changes slightly.
744
00:29:51,100 --> 00:29:52,401
When did you... when did you
start doing that?
745
00:29:52,501 --> 00:29:54,003
Is this, like, a thing
you've had your whole life?
746
00:29:54,103 --> 00:29:55,371
I think so. It's... Yeah.
747
00:29:55,471 --> 00:29:57,039
It's sort of like that's...
Have you...?
748
00:29:57,139 --> 00:29:58,407
It's like,
have you had this weird mole
749
00:29:58,507 --> 00:29:59,875
your whole life or something?
750
00:29:59,909 --> 00:30:01,343
-You know, it's like
have you had this? -Okay...
751
00:30:01,444 --> 00:30:02,945
Is this...? Has all...?
Have you always...? Yeah, yeah.
752
00:30:03,045 --> 00:30:05,214
-No, no, this is great. No, no.
I'm more like... -But yeah.
753
00:30:05,314 --> 00:30:06,749
I'll tell you why.
Because, um, I've been trying...
754
00:30:06,882 --> 00:30:08,684
-You put those away.
-I've been trying...
755
00:30:08,784 --> 00:30:11,921
-I've been trying to make
a TV show, like, here. -Uh-oh.
756
00:30:12,021 --> 00:30:15,257
Like, a few of my...
So, I just, you know? And then,
757
00:30:15,358 --> 00:30:19,061
what I was trying to do...
what I was trying to do is...
758
00:30:19,161 --> 00:30:20,529
(applause)
759
00:30:20,629 --> 00:30:23,199
I was hoping we could...
we could do, like, a little...
760
00:30:23,299 --> 00:30:26,502
-like, a little scene
for my show. -Yeah.
761
00:30:26,602 --> 00:30:28,270
-I'm gonna... 'Cause I'm gonna
pitch it 'cause... -So...
762
00:30:28,371 --> 00:30:30,473
Now you showed me how successful
it could be, I'm gonna...
763
00:30:30,573 --> 00:30:33,743
-Okay. -So you can be...
you can be Handy, the sanitizer.
764
00:30:33,909 --> 00:30:37,146
-Okay. -Um, or you can be
Bluey, the drink thing.
765
00:30:37,246 --> 00:30:41,016
Um, or you can be, um,
Stan, the stapler.
766
00:30:41,117 --> 00:30:43,352
-Oh, Stan!
-Yeah.
767
00:30:43,452 --> 00:30:44,820
Uh, yeah.
768
00:30:44,920 --> 00:30:48,391
-Okay, I'll be Stan. Fine.
And then, um... -Okay, okay.
769
00:30:48,491 --> 00:30:50,292
-Yeah, so... -I'll move these so
you can see everything clearly.
770
00:30:50,393 --> 00:30:52,395
-Do I...? Hold on. Let me...
-There we go.
771
00:30:52,495 --> 00:30:54,096
-Oh, you're doing that.
You got it. -Okay. Cool. Great.
772
00:30:54,196 --> 00:30:56,032
Oh, wait.
I'll go into that shot.
773
00:30:56,132 --> 00:30:57,867
-I know how cameras work.
-Look at this.
774
00:30:57,900 --> 00:30:59,135
-I can be here.
-This is the film...?
775
00:30:59,235 --> 00:31:00,369
Wait. Where's that...?
Where's that thing?
776
00:31:00,469 --> 00:31:02,004
Put... Yeah, get...
Uh, the eyes. All right.
777
00:31:02,104 --> 00:31:03,672
-Oh, you're getting my back.
-All right, we got...
778
00:31:03,773 --> 00:31:06,242
-Yeah, okay. -And then we need
these eyes turning as which way?
779
00:31:06,342 --> 00:31:08,377
Oh, there, there. Oh, there.
That's the one. That's the one.
780
00:31:08,477 --> 00:31:10,946
That's the one. That's the one.
That's the one.
781
00:31:11,047 --> 00:31:12,548
-All right, cool.
All right, cool. -Okay.
782
00:31:12,648 --> 00:31:14,483
I'm gonna figure out what's
happening here. They are...
783
00:31:14,583 --> 00:31:17,186
Give me a place
where they are, people.
784
00:31:17,286 --> 00:31:18,688
-WOMAN: Chicago!
-They're in Chicago?
785
00:31:18,788 --> 00:31:20,256
-They're in Chicago.
-That's very specific.
786
00:31:20,356 --> 00:31:21,691
Very specific. All right.
787
00:31:21,791 --> 00:31:23,592
And what are they trying
to do in Chicago?
788
00:31:23,693 --> 00:31:25,428
-MAN: They're going to the
circus. -Go to the circus?
789
00:31:25,528 --> 00:31:26,996
-Okay.
-Okay, okay. All right.
790
00:31:27,096 --> 00:31:28,898
They're in Chicago, and they're
trying to go to the circus.
791
00:31:28,998 --> 00:31:30,433
But they can't because why?
792
00:31:30,533 --> 00:31:32,001
-WOMAN: It's hot right now.
-(audience shouting responses)
793
00:31:32,101 --> 00:31:34,303
-It's hot right now? -It's
too... -WOMAN: Car broke down.
794
00:31:34,403 --> 00:31:35,805
-They're car broke down.
-Car broke down. All right.
795
00:31:35,905 --> 00:31:37,139
They're in Chicago, they're
trying to go to the circus,
796
00:31:37,239 --> 00:31:38,674
-but the car broke down.
All right. -Okay.
797
00:31:38,774 --> 00:31:41,143
All right, I'm... Okay, I'm
ready with. All right. (mutters)
798
00:31:41,243 --> 00:31:44,046
-(Noah groaning)
-Stan?
799
00:31:44,146 --> 00:31:47,149
-(groaning)
-Stan, calm down. Stan?
800
00:31:47,249 --> 00:31:50,186
Stan, I just need you
to calm down for one moment.
801
00:31:50,286 --> 00:31:54,090
Oh, I can't calm down.
The car... the car is broken!
802
00:31:54,190 --> 00:31:57,226
-Aah! Aah! Aah!
-(laughter)
803
00:31:57,326 --> 00:31:59,628
How are we going to get
to the circus now?
804
00:31:59,729 --> 00:32:02,398
Can I admit something
to you, Stan?
805
00:32:02,498 --> 00:32:04,400
Oh, go ahead.
806
00:32:04,500 --> 00:32:06,369
I broke the car because
I don't want to go to the circus
807
00:32:06,469 --> 00:32:08,671
'cause I don't want everybody
to pump my darn head.
808
00:32:08,771 --> 00:32:10,706
-What?! What?!
-(laughter)
809
00:32:10,806 --> 00:32:12,908
I told you my dream was
to go to the circus,
810
00:32:13,008 --> 00:32:14,643
and you broke the car?!
You know how hard it is
811
00:32:14,744 --> 00:32:16,445
-for a stapler to buy a car?!
-(laughter)
812
00:32:16,545 --> 00:32:18,614
That was the first car
I ever bought!
813
00:32:18,714 --> 00:32:20,483
How could you do that to me?
814
00:32:20,583 --> 00:32:23,052
I didn't know that it was your
first automobile, first of all.
815
00:32:23,152 --> 00:32:26,489
-(groans) -Secondly, Stan,
you know that
816
00:32:26,589 --> 00:32:28,657
whenever we go anywhere,
people pump my head.
817
00:32:28,758 --> 00:32:30,726
-(laughter, applause)
-Yeah. Yeah.
818
00:32:30,826 --> 00:32:33,029
And you know what?
You know what? That's life.
819
00:32:33,129 --> 00:32:34,630
That's life. Look at you.
820
00:32:34,730 --> 00:32:36,399
You've been a hand sanitizer
for, what?
821
00:32:36,499 --> 00:32:38,601
A few years of the pandemic,
and you're tired?
822
00:32:38,701 --> 00:32:41,303
You know how long people having
been playing with my head?
823
00:32:41,404 --> 00:32:46,342
-(laughter)
-Huh? Huh? Huh?
824
00:32:46,442 --> 00:32:49,211
Stan, these last few years
have been really hard for me.
825
00:32:49,311 --> 00:32:51,914
A lot of people
have been pumping my head.
826
00:32:51,981 --> 00:32:54,650
They don't ask.
I've had to re...
827
00:32:54,750 --> 00:32:56,919
-What are you doing?
-(English accent): Uh, guys?
828
00:32:56,952 --> 00:32:59,488
-What?
-I ordered an Uber.
829
00:32:59,588 --> 00:33:01,090
We don't need
to have this fight.
830
00:33:01,190 --> 00:33:03,726
-(laughter)
-NOAH: And scene. We got it.
831
00:33:03,826 --> 00:33:05,294
-We got it.
-We sold 'em.
832
00:33:05,394 --> 00:33:07,263
We're making millions.
833
00:33:07,363 --> 00:33:09,732
We're making millions.
All right, people,
834
00:33:09,832 --> 00:33:11,133

00:33:11,233 --> 00:33:12,668
is now playing
in theatres nationwide.
836
00:33:12,768 --> 00:33:14,003
Go watch the movie
and take your kids.
837
00:33:14,103 --> 00:33:15,371
We're gonna take a quick break,
838
00:33:15,471 --> 00:33:16,706
but we'll be
right back after this.
839
00:33:16,806 --> 00:33:18,841
(applause and cheering)
840
00:33:25,861 --> 00:33:28,864
(applause and cheering)
841
00:33:28,964 --> 00:33:31,400
Well, that's our show
for tonight, but before we go,
842
00:33:31,500 --> 00:33:33,435
before we go,
I wanted to tell you
843
00:33:33,535 --> 00:33:37,105
about our newest Daily Show
podcast called Hold Up.
844
00:33:37,205 --> 00:33:38,974
All right?
There are podcasts out there
845
00:33:39,074 --> 00:33:41,877
that discuss major issues,
from nuclear war
846
00:33:41,977 --> 00:33:46,681
to economic crises,
but this podcast is not that.
847
00:33:46,782 --> 00:33:49,017
Instead, Hold Up features
our very own
848
00:33:49,117 --> 00:33:50,919
Dulcé Sloan
and one of her good friends,
849
00:33:51,019 --> 00:33:52,421
Daily Show writer Josh Johnson,
850
00:33:52,521 --> 00:33:54,222
arguing about the stuff
that's important to them. Yeah.
851
00:33:54,322 --> 00:33:56,057
So if you want
to hear hilarious debates
852
00:33:56,158 --> 00:33:58,126
over vacations
versus staycations
853
00:33:58,226 --> 00:34:00,095
or body wash versus bar soap,
then check out
854
00:34:00,195 --> 00:34:02,431
Hold up with Dulcé Sloan
& Josh Johnson
855
00:34:02,531 --> 00:34:04,466
every week
wherever you get your podcasts.
856
00:34:04,566 --> 00:34:06,802
Until next time, stay safe
out there, and remember,
857
00:34:06,902 --> 00:34:09,071
if you're a Muppet
crossing the street,
858
00:34:09,171 --> 00:34:11,206
you look left, right and down
859
00:34:11,306 --> 00:34:12,741
so you don't miss
the Black children.
860
00:34:12,841 --> 00:34:15,510
Now here it is--
your Moment of Zen.
861
00:34:15,610 --> 00:34:18,080
We now see the mainstream media
questioning President Biden's
862
00:34:18,180 --> 00:34:20,215
mental state,
and for good reason.
863
00:34:20,315 --> 00:34:23,185
Sadly,
he shakes hands with ghosts,
864
00:34:23,285 --> 00:34:24,619
he falls off bicycles.
865
00:34:24,719 --> 00:34:27,022
Have you spoken
with any other cabinet members
866
00:34:27,122 --> 00:34:30,092
about implementing the 25th
Amendment on President Biden?
867
00:34:30,192 --> 00:34:32,260
First of all, I'm glad
868
00:34:32,360 --> 00:34:35,263
to have a president
who can ride a bicycle, and...
869
00:34:35,363 --> 00:34:36,965
♪ ♪
