00:00:02,002 --> 00:00:03,270
ANNOUNCER: Coming
to you from New
3
00:00:03,370 --> 00:00:07,641
York City, the only city in
America, it's The Daily Show.
4
00:00:07,741 --> 00:00:12,079
Tonight, Alex Jones
has to pay, the series
5
00:00:12,179 --> 00:00:14,648
finale of the
January 6 hearings,
6
00:00:14,748 --> 00:00:17,184
and Quintessa Swindell.
7
00:00:17,284 --> 00:00:20,587
This is The Daily
Show with Trevor Noah.
8
00:00:20,687 --> 00:00:27,694
[cheering]
9
00:00:36,870 --> 00:00:38,138
Hey, what's
going on everybody?
10
00:00:38,238 --> 00:00:39,139
Welcome to The Daily Show.
11
00:00:39,239 --> 00:00:40,140
I'm Trevor Noah.
12
00:00:40,240 --> 00:00:41,542
Thank you so much
for tuning in.
13
00:00:41,642 --> 00:00:43,877
Thank you for coming
out in person.
14
00:00:43,977 --> 00:00:44,878
Thank you so much.
15
00:00:44,978 --> 00:00:46,313
Thank you so much.
16
00:00:46,413 --> 00:00:47,381
Thank you so much.
17
00:00:47,481 --> 00:00:48,415
Muchas gracias.
18
00:00:48,515 --> 00:00:49,883
Take a seat, everybody.
19
00:00:49,983 --> 00:00:50,951
Take a seat.
20
00:00:51,051 --> 00:00:52,986
We've got a great
show for you tonight.
21
00:00:53,086 --> 00:00:54,721
Inflation is still inflating.
22
00:00:54,821 --> 00:00:57,724
We have some never before seen
footage of the work being done
23
00:00:57,824 --> 00:00:59,226
by Trump's special master.
24
00:00:59,326 --> 00:01:01,695
And Alex Jones needs
to borrow a few bucks.
25
00:01:01,795 --> 00:01:02,829
So let's do this, people.
26
00:01:02,930 --> 00:01:04,932
Let's jump straight
into today's headlines.
27
00:01:05,065 --> 00:01:11,705
[cheering]
28
00:01:11,805 --> 00:01:13,073
All right, all right, folks.
29
00:01:13,140 --> 00:01:14,074
I'm going to be honest.
30
00:01:14,174 --> 00:01:15,475
With all the news
that happened today,
31
00:01:15,576 --> 00:01:17,845
I just don't think we have
enough space in today's show.
32
00:01:17,945 --> 00:01:18,846
Yeah, I know.
33
00:01:18,946 --> 00:01:19,813
I know.
34
00:01:19,913 --> 00:01:21,081
I tried everything
to fit it in.
35
00:01:21,148 --> 00:01:22,749
I even tried to
unscrew the legs,
36
00:01:22,850 --> 00:01:24,484
and then take off the
cushions, and turn the news
37
00:01:24,585 --> 00:01:25,853
sideways so it would fit.
38
00:01:25,953 --> 00:01:29,489
But it just-- it didn't work,
and there's not enough time.
39
00:01:29,590 --> 00:01:30,490
Luckily--
40
00:01:30,591 --> 00:01:32,259
[sighing]
41
00:01:32,359 --> 00:01:33,660
--not enough time
is just enough time
42
00:01:33,760 --> 00:01:36,630
for a segment we call Ain't
Nobody Got Time for That.
43
00:01:36,730 --> 00:01:40,334
[cheering]
44
00:01:40,434 --> 00:01:42,102
All right, let's kick
things off with some news
45
00:01:42,135 --> 00:01:43,437
about the US economy.
46
00:01:43,537 --> 00:01:44,938
Remember how the
Fed raised interest
47
00:01:45,105 --> 00:01:46,573
rates a thousand
times in the last week
48
00:01:46,673 --> 00:01:48,108
to try and stop inflation?
49
00:01:48,208 --> 00:01:50,210
Well, it turns out
it didn't work.
50
00:01:50,310 --> 00:01:51,912
REPORTER: Breaking
news on the economy,
51
00:01:52,012 --> 00:01:54,948
inflation shows no
signs of slowing down.
52
00:01:55,115 --> 00:01:57,618
The last inflation report
before the midterm elections,
53
00:01:57,718 --> 00:01:58,952
take a look at some
of these numbers--
54
00:01:59,119 --> 00:02:03,090
shows that prices rose
8.2% between September
55
00:02:03,190 --> 00:02:05,692
2021 and September 2022.
56
00:02:05,792 --> 00:02:08,262
Gasoline prices
up more than 18%
57
00:02:08,362 --> 00:02:11,365
from last year, food
prices still up 11%.
58
00:02:11,465 --> 00:02:14,935
REPORTER: Turkey up 20%
from this time last year,
59
00:02:15,068 --> 00:02:18,705
eggs up 27%, butter 25%, and
then look at the little candy
60
00:02:18,805 --> 00:02:19,973
corn graphic.
61
00:02:20,073 --> 00:02:24,912
Halloween candy up a whopping
34% across the board.
62
00:02:25,078 --> 00:02:26,446
That's right, people.
63
00:02:26,547 --> 00:02:29,583
Halloween candy up 34%.
64
00:02:29,683 --> 00:02:31,485
I love how they say it like
it's necessary to live.
65
00:02:31,585 --> 00:02:34,321
What are we going
to do without it?
66
00:02:34,421 --> 00:02:36,290
Once again, inflation
numbers are out,
67
00:02:36,390 --> 00:02:38,959
and prices are still going
up, affecting everything
68
00:02:39,092 --> 00:02:41,495
from gas to Halloween candy.
69
00:02:41,595 --> 00:02:44,097
And not only that,
razorblades are up 52%.
70
00:02:44,131 --> 00:02:45,866
Now what am I supposed
to put in the candy?
71
00:02:45,966 --> 00:02:49,903
Oh, how do I live?
72
00:02:50,003 --> 00:02:52,639
I will say, a 34% increase
in candy, that is a lot.
73
00:02:52,739 --> 00:02:53,974
It's so expensive.
74
00:02:54,107 --> 00:02:55,509
Parents are going to start
encouraging their kids to get
75
00:02:55,609 --> 00:02:57,344
into strange vans, you know?
76
00:02:57,444 --> 00:02:59,780
Just, like, look, look,
Timmy, the stranger
77
00:02:59,880 --> 00:03:01,181
says he's got free candy.
78
00:03:01,281 --> 00:03:03,083
And in this economy, we've
got to take a shot, buddy.
79
00:03:03,183 --> 00:03:04,351
We got to do it.
80
00:03:04,451 --> 00:03:05,352
You got AirTag.
81
00:03:05,452 --> 00:03:06,587
I'll find you.
82
00:03:06,687 --> 00:03:08,755
[cheering]
83
00:03:08,856 --> 00:03:11,859
For real, people,
all this inflation is
84
00:03:11,959 --> 00:03:13,827
just not sustainable, right?
85
00:03:13,927 --> 00:03:14,928
Because here's the thing.
86
00:03:15,062 --> 00:03:19,266
Inflation is a lot like
masturbation, right?
87
00:03:19,366 --> 00:03:22,069
Yeah, a little bit is
completely natural.
88
00:03:22,169 --> 00:03:24,605
But once you start
noticing it in restaurants
89
00:03:24,705 --> 00:03:28,375
and car dealerships, things
have gotten out of hand.
90
00:03:28,475 --> 00:03:30,210
And, look, if we
had more time, we
91
00:03:30,310 --> 00:03:31,712
could talk about
the Federal Reserve,
92
00:03:31,812 --> 00:03:33,180
and it looks like
how they're going
93
00:03:33,280 --> 00:03:35,182
to keep raising interest
rates to try and curb
94
00:03:35,282 --> 00:03:36,483
this rampant inflation.
95
00:03:36,583 --> 00:03:38,085
Because that's basically the
only tool that they have.
96
00:03:38,185 --> 00:03:40,254
The problem is raising
interest rates takes so long
97
00:03:40,354 --> 00:03:42,122
to filter through the
economy that this could be
98
00:03:42,222 --> 00:03:43,524
too much raising
interest rates,
99
00:03:43,624 --> 00:03:44,958
and we just don't know it yet.
100
00:03:45,092 --> 00:03:46,727
In some ways, raising
interest rates is a lot
101
00:03:46,827 --> 00:03:48,395
like taking mushrooms, right?
102
00:03:48,495 --> 00:03:49,963
You take some--
nothing happens.
103
00:03:50,097 --> 00:03:51,765
So you take some
more-- nothing happens.
104
00:03:51,865 --> 00:03:53,100
Then you finish the whole box.
105
00:03:53,200 --> 00:03:55,669
And because this stuff
clearly doesn't work,
106
00:03:55,769 --> 00:03:59,306
(DISTORTED) what,
whoa, whoa, whoa.
107
00:03:59,406 --> 00:04:03,043
Oh, oh, oh.
108
00:04:03,076 --> 00:04:04,044
Oh, man.
109
00:04:04,077 --> 00:04:05,779
Oh.
110
00:04:05,879 --> 00:04:07,781
Oh, OK.
111
00:04:07,881 --> 00:04:10,784
I can fix this with
some [inaudible]..
112
00:04:10,884 --> 00:04:14,254
[applause]
113
00:04:14,354 --> 00:04:18,892
I-- I just met God,
and he's a gorilla.
114
00:04:19,059 --> 00:04:20,861
Oh.
115
00:04:20,961 --> 00:04:22,062
All right!
116
00:04:22,162 --> 00:04:23,697
We don't have time for this!
117
00:04:23,797 --> 00:04:25,165
Because while everyone's
bills are going up,
118
00:04:25,265 --> 00:04:26,900
one of the worst
people of all time
119
00:04:27,067 --> 00:04:29,336
just got the biggest
bill of all time.
120
00:04:29,436 --> 00:04:30,571
Tonight, the
stunning verdict,
121
00:04:30,671 --> 00:04:33,073
conspiracy theorist
Alex Jones ordered
122
00:04:33,106 --> 00:04:36,143
to pay nearly $1,000,000,000
for spreading falsehoods
123
00:04:36,243 --> 00:04:37,845
about the Sandy Hook shooting.
124
00:04:37,945 --> 00:04:40,180
REPORTER: Jones was not in
the courtroom for the verdict,
125
00:04:40,280 --> 00:04:43,116
but immediately reacted
on his online show,
126
00:04:43,217 --> 00:04:44,751
calling the attorneys
for the victims'
127
00:04:44,852 --> 00:04:48,322
families ambulance chasers
and mocking the verdict.
128
00:04:48,422 --> 00:04:50,157
MAN: $120 million--
129
00:04:50,257 --> 00:04:51,458
Yeah!
130
00:04:51,558 --> 00:04:52,726
Woo!
131
00:04:52,826 --> 00:04:56,296
57 million, 20 million,
50 million, 80 million,
132
00:04:56,396 --> 00:04:57,798
100 million, blah, blah.
133
00:04:57,898 --> 00:04:58,799
You get a million.
134
00:04:58,899 --> 00:04:59,800
You get 100 million.
135
00:04:59,900 --> 00:05:01,134
You get a 50 million.
136
00:05:01,235 --> 00:05:02,603
MAN: Slander damages past--
137
00:05:02,703 --> 00:05:04,338
They actually believe
they're getting this money.
138
00:05:04,438 --> 00:05:06,106
It's like they believe
all their own stuff.
139
00:05:06,206 --> 00:05:07,374
What a dick.
140
00:05:07,474 --> 00:05:09,243
You know, I used to watch
American movies as a kid.
141
00:05:09,343 --> 00:05:11,144
And I always thought the bad
guys that were in the movies
142
00:05:11,245 --> 00:05:12,145
were fake.
143
00:05:12,246 --> 00:05:13,313
And then I came
to this country,
144
00:05:13,413 --> 00:05:15,048
and bad guys are
literally in their lair
145
00:05:15,148 --> 00:05:16,884
like, (SINISTER VOICE) you
have seen the last of me!
146
00:05:17,050 --> 00:05:20,287
[laughs]
147
00:05:20,387 --> 00:05:21,655
But that's right.
148
00:05:21,755 --> 00:05:23,790
For defaming the parents and
the first responders of Sandy
149
00:05:23,891 --> 00:05:26,293
Hook when he accused them
of faking the shooting,
150
00:05:26,393 --> 00:05:30,631
Alex Jones has been ordered
to pay $965 million.
151
00:05:30,731 --> 00:05:33,333
[cheering]
152
00:05:33,433 --> 00:05:36,170
Yeah.
153
00:05:36,270 --> 00:05:39,072
Which is a huge
amount of money.
154
00:05:39,173 --> 00:05:40,507
You know you
[bleep] up when even
155
00:05:40,607 --> 00:05:42,075
your great, great
grandkids will
156
00:05:42,109 --> 00:05:43,911
have to declare bankruptcy.
157
00:05:44,077 --> 00:05:45,913
Yeah, he's basically got
millions of sperm swimming
158
00:05:46,079 --> 00:05:47,814
around in his balls, and
every single one of them
159
00:05:47,915 --> 00:05:49,750
is a broke-ass bitch right now.
160
00:05:49,850 --> 00:05:50,951
Every single one.
161
00:05:51,084 --> 00:05:51,952
Every single one.
162
00:05:52,085 --> 00:05:53,353
[applause]
163
00:05:53,453 --> 00:05:54,855
And, by the way-- by
the way, good luck
164
00:05:54,955 --> 00:05:56,757
to Alex Jones's lawyer, trying
to get clients after this,
165
00:05:56,857 --> 00:05:57,758
you know?
166
00:05:57,858 --> 00:05:59,126
Like, what's your
selling point?
167
00:05:59,226 --> 00:06:02,229
You know, in my last case, the
jury awarded $1,000,000,000.
168
00:06:02,329 --> 00:06:03,230
Wow, to your client?
169
00:06:03,330 --> 00:06:04,231
Well, to a client.
170
00:06:04,331 --> 00:06:06,366
[laughs]
171
00:06:06,466 --> 00:06:08,168
Now, if we had more
time, we could talk about
172
00:06:08,268 --> 00:06:10,037
how Jones's conspiracy
theories have only
173
00:06:10,070 --> 00:06:12,372
become more mainstream
since Sandy Hook,
174
00:06:12,472 --> 00:06:14,775
and that there's not enough
billion dollar judgments
175
00:06:14,875 --> 00:06:17,277
in the world to change the fact
that one fifth of Americans
176
00:06:17,377 --> 00:06:19,346
think that Sandy Hook
might have been staged.
177
00:06:19,446 --> 00:06:20,714
But we can't get
into all of that.
178
00:06:20,814 --> 00:06:22,816
Because while Alex
Jones's trial is over,
179
00:06:22,916 --> 00:06:25,052
Andy Warhol's is
just beginning.
180
00:06:25,118 --> 00:06:27,087
The Supreme Court
heard a case today
181
00:06:27,187 --> 00:06:28,555
involving one of
the most famous
182
00:06:28,655 --> 00:06:30,224
artists in American history.
183
00:06:30,324 --> 00:06:33,293
The justices are deciding
whether Andy Warhol illegally
184
00:06:33,393 --> 00:06:35,162
copied another artist's work.
185
00:06:35,262 --> 00:06:36,730
REPORTER: They're
among Andy Warhol's
186
00:06:36,830 --> 00:06:41,068
most iconic portraits, the
silkscreen images of prints.
187
00:06:41,168 --> 00:06:45,205
The image was based on a 1981
photograph by Lynne Goldsmith.
188
00:06:45,305 --> 00:06:47,908
She sued Warhol's
foundation, claiming
189
00:06:48,075 --> 00:06:49,510
copyright infringement.
190
00:06:49,610 --> 00:06:51,545
The justices did
find some lighter
191
00:06:51,645 --> 00:06:55,415
moments, when Clarence Thomas
revealed his musical tastes.
192
00:06:55,516 --> 00:06:58,619
CLARENCE THOMAS: Let's say
that I'm both a Prince fan,
193
00:06:58,719 --> 00:07:02,322
which I was in the '80s, and--
194
00:07:02,422 --> 00:07:03,323
ELENA KAGAN: No longer?
195
00:07:03,423 --> 00:07:06,026
[laughter]
196
00:07:06,126 --> 00:07:12,399
CLARENCE THOMAS: Well,
only on Thursday night.
197
00:07:12,499 --> 00:07:14,601
(DEEP VOICE) Oh, yeah.
198
00:07:14,701 --> 00:07:18,071
Justice Thomas, I'll see
you, you little freak nasty.
199
00:07:18,172 --> 00:07:19,439
Oh.
200
00:07:19,540 --> 00:07:22,075
Six days a week, it's
shapeless black robes.
201
00:07:22,176 --> 00:07:24,545
But then Thursday night hits,
and you got that full bush
202
00:07:24,645 --> 00:07:26,547
of chest hair popping out.
203
00:07:26,647 --> 00:07:29,416
Yeah.
204
00:07:29,516 --> 00:07:31,118
I know a lot of people
right now might be wondering
205
00:07:31,218 --> 00:07:33,520
why Thomas only listens to
Prince on Thursday
206
00:07:33,620 --> 00:07:35,055
night specifically.
207
00:07:35,088 --> 00:07:38,125
But, you see, Clarence
Thomas is an originalist.
208
00:07:38,225 --> 00:07:39,860
And it says right there
in the Constitution,
209
00:07:39,960 --> 00:07:41,595
Thursday night
is [bleep] night.
210
00:07:41,695 --> 00:07:42,629
Yeah, it says it.
211
00:07:42,729 --> 00:07:43,630
It says it.
212
00:07:43,730 --> 00:07:44,932
We always go back.
213
00:07:45,065 --> 00:07:46,934
I don't know why they put
that in there, but they did.
214
00:07:47,067 --> 00:07:48,969
But, yeah, the big
question in this case
215
00:07:49,069 --> 00:07:52,339
is if Andy Warhol simply
copied the Prince picture
216
00:07:52,439 --> 00:07:54,641
or if he made it his
own by transforming it.
217
00:07:54,741 --> 00:07:57,377
And it just so happens
that I am an art expert.
218
00:07:57,477 --> 00:07:59,713
Yeah, so I'm uniquely qualified
to answer this question.
219
00:07:59,813 --> 00:08:02,616
Now, if you compare them,
and you look very closely,
220
00:08:02,716 --> 00:08:07,020
you'll see he made
it red and purple
221
00:08:07,087 --> 00:08:09,523
with some squiggly things.
222
00:08:09,623 --> 00:08:10,624
And I'm sorry.
223
00:08:10,724 --> 00:08:11,925
I'm such an art geek
that this is probably
224
00:08:12,025 --> 00:08:13,493
going all over your heads.
225
00:08:13,594 --> 00:08:14,795
The bottom line is I
think it is differenter
226
00:08:14,895 --> 00:08:15,796
than the other one.
227
00:08:15,896 --> 00:08:16,797
That's what I'm saying.
228
00:08:16,897 --> 00:08:17,865
[laughter]
229
00:08:18,031 --> 00:08:19,833
Now, look-- now, look,
if we have the time,
230
00:08:19,933 --> 00:08:22,369
we could talk about how it's
weird that the Supreme Court
231
00:08:22,469 --> 00:08:23,770
is the only place
where you get to be
232
00:08:23,871 --> 00:08:26,406
an expert on every single
issue in the world.
233
00:08:26,507 --> 00:08:28,308
It's why-- well, actually,
the Supreme Court and Twitter,
234
00:08:28,408 --> 00:08:29,743
but we just don't have
the time for that.
235
00:08:29,843 --> 00:08:31,111
Because while the
Supreme Court is trying
236
00:08:31,211 --> 00:08:33,180
to decide if certain
artists are stealing,
237
00:08:33,280 --> 00:08:35,782
it's becoming clear that
a certain former President
238
00:08:35,883 --> 00:08:37,317
definitely is.
239
00:08:37,417 --> 00:08:40,287
REPORTER: This morning, a new
twist in the investigation
240
00:08:40,387 --> 00:08:42,789
into former President
Trump's alleged mishandling
241
00:08:42,890 --> 00:08:45,392
of classified documents
at his Florida estate.
242
00:08:45,492 --> 00:08:48,395
Trump told people to move
boxes to his residence
243
00:08:48,495 --> 00:08:51,131
at the property after
advisors received
244
00:08:51,231 --> 00:08:54,234
a subpoena in May for
any classified documents
245
00:08:54,334 --> 00:08:55,235
at Mar-a-Lago.
246
00:08:55,335 --> 00:08:57,371
That witness account
was corroborated
247
00:08:57,471 --> 00:08:59,806
by security camera
footage, which showed
248
00:08:59,907 --> 00:09:01,475
people moving the boxes.
249
00:09:01,575 --> 00:09:03,744
[laughter]
250
00:09:03,844 --> 00:09:04,745
Yo, I'm sorry.
251
00:09:04,845 --> 00:09:06,013
Trump is a legend.
252
00:09:06,113 --> 00:09:08,916
Who else gets caught committing
crimes with their own
253
00:09:09,016 --> 00:09:11,151
security cameras?
254
00:09:11,251 --> 00:09:13,253
Who are you?
255
00:09:13,353 --> 00:09:14,254
How are you real?
256
00:09:14,354 --> 00:09:15,255
[laughs]
257
00:09:15,355 --> 00:09:17,624
[cheering]
258
00:09:17,724 --> 00:09:20,561
You realize this guy's they're
like, (IMITATING TRUMP)
259
00:09:20,661 --> 00:09:23,664
hurry, move those classified
documents so I can illegally
260
00:09:23,764 --> 00:09:24,831
hide them from the FBI.
261
00:09:24,932 --> 00:09:27,267
But, first-- but,
first, let's all wave
262
00:09:27,367 --> 00:09:30,204
at that blinking red light
and tell it our names.
263
00:09:30,304 --> 00:09:33,507
Donald J Trump-- the
J stands for genius.
264
00:09:33,607 --> 00:09:35,709
[laughter]
265
00:09:35,809 --> 00:09:38,412
[applause]
266
00:09:38,512 --> 00:09:39,780
There's something
inspiring about it,
267
00:09:39,880 --> 00:09:41,348
too, when you think about it.
268
00:09:41,448 --> 00:09:42,349
You know what?
269
00:09:42,449 --> 00:09:43,750
This is actually
inspiring because Trump
270
00:09:43,851 --> 00:09:46,486
is so bad at crime, but he
gets away with so much of it.
271
00:09:46,587 --> 00:09:50,290
It just shows us that
we could do crime too.
272
00:09:50,390 --> 00:09:52,259
Yeah, he's like the
drunk couple at karaoke.
273
00:09:52,359 --> 00:09:53,827
Hearing them screech
through "Don't Stop
274
00:09:53,927 --> 00:09:55,162
Believin'" gives
you the confidence
275
00:09:55,262 --> 00:09:57,965
to try "Kiss From a Rose."
276
00:09:58,065 --> 00:09:59,766
And, look, if we had
a little more time,
277
00:09:59,867 --> 00:10:01,835
we could have so much fun
talking about how Trump has
278
00:10:01,935 --> 00:10:03,604
once again helped the
Justice Department
279
00:10:03,704 --> 00:10:04,905
crack the case against him.
280
00:10:05,005 --> 00:10:07,441
Or we could even get into my
personal conspiracy theory
281
00:10:07,541 --> 00:10:08,742
that Ron DeSantis
and his people
282
00:10:08,842 --> 00:10:10,344
are probably the ones who
snitched on Trump to get him
283
00:10:10,444 --> 00:10:11,445
out of the presidential race.
284
00:10:11,545 --> 00:10:12,779
But we don't have
the time for that
285
00:10:12,880 --> 00:10:14,548
because while the
FBI is investigating
286
00:10:14,648 --> 00:10:16,316
Trump's mishandling of
classified documents,
287
00:10:16,416 --> 00:10:19,152
Congress is investigating a
whole different Trump crime.
288
00:10:19,253 --> 00:10:21,588
And today, at their
final hearing,
289
00:10:21,688 --> 00:10:24,024
the January 6 Committee
released never before
290
00:10:24,124 --> 00:10:27,461
seen footage, showing what
Nancy Pelosi and Chuck
291
00:10:27,561 --> 00:10:30,197
Schumer were doing while
Trump's mob was outside,
292
00:10:30,297 --> 00:10:31,732
asking to have an
intimate conversation
293
00:10:31,832 --> 00:10:32,866
with Mike Pence's neck.
294
00:10:32,966 --> 00:10:34,535
And it was pretty
impressive how
295
00:10:34,635 --> 00:10:36,670
they were keeping their cool
and trying to get stuff done--
296
00:10:36,770 --> 00:10:39,106
everything from phoning the
vice president to even trying
297
00:10:39,206 --> 00:10:40,707
to call in the National Guard.
298
00:10:40,807 --> 00:10:44,044
But one of the craziest moments
was when Nancy Pelosi pointed
299
00:10:44,144 --> 00:10:48,148
out one really smelly reason
the lawmakers might not be
300
00:10:48,248 --> 00:10:49,583
able to stay in the Capitol.
301
00:10:49,683 --> 00:10:52,019
["usa" chant]
302
00:10:52,119 --> 00:10:54,688
NANCY PELOSI: What we are
being told very directly
303
00:10:54,788 --> 00:10:59,159
is it's going to take days for
the Capitol to be OK again.
304
00:10:59,259 --> 00:11:02,296
We've gotten a very bad
report about the condition
305
00:11:02,396 --> 00:11:06,834
of the House floor,
with defecation
306
00:11:06,934 --> 00:11:09,203
and all that kind
of thing as well.
307
00:11:09,303 --> 00:11:10,971
I just got off with
the vice president.
308
00:11:11,071 --> 00:11:12,706
He had the
impression from Mitch
309
00:11:12,806 --> 00:11:15,209
that Mitch wants to get
everybody back to do it there.
310
00:11:15,309 --> 00:11:16,577
CHUCK SCHUMER: Yes
311
00:11:16,677 --> 00:11:18,612
NANCY PELOSI: I said, well,
we're getting at counterpoint
312
00:11:18,712 --> 00:11:22,616
that is it could
take time to clean up
313
00:11:22,716 --> 00:11:25,719
the poo-poo that they're making
all over the-- literally and
314
00:11:25,819 --> 00:11:27,754
figuratively-- in the Capitol.
315
00:11:27,855 --> 00:11:29,756
Yup, you heard that right.
316
00:11:29,857 --> 00:11:31,358
It turns out
right-wing Jamiroquai
317
00:11:31,458 --> 00:11:34,461
was shitting or, as
Nancy Pelosi put it,
318
00:11:34,561 --> 00:11:37,531
poo-pooing all
over the Capitol.
319
00:11:37,631 --> 00:11:40,434
And, you know, when I
was watching this happen,
320
00:11:40,534 --> 00:11:41,802
I thought to myself,
it's so interesting
321
00:11:41,902 --> 00:11:44,137
how people like Tucker
Carlson were calling
322
00:11:44,238 --> 00:11:46,206
Black people animals
when the George
323
00:11:46,306 --> 00:11:47,875
Floyd protests were happening.
324
00:11:47,975 --> 00:11:49,510
But when these
people were literally
325
00:11:49,610 --> 00:11:53,180
shitting in the Capitol, Fox
was like, these brave Patriots
326
00:11:53,280 --> 00:11:54,781
are just expressing
their frustration
327
00:11:54,882 --> 00:11:57,384
and standing up for
American democracy.
328
00:11:57,484 --> 00:11:58,752
They're not the animals?
329
00:11:58,852 --> 00:12:00,053
Like, I can tell
you for a fact,
330
00:12:00,153 --> 00:12:02,489
even in Minnesota, when
shit was going down,
331
00:12:02,589 --> 00:12:05,726
and people were raiding that
Target, there was no Black man
332
00:12:05,826 --> 00:12:07,361
who stopped in the middle
of all of them and was
333
00:12:07,461 --> 00:12:08,529
like, hey, yo,
hold up, hold up.
334
00:12:08,629 --> 00:12:10,063
Hey, yo, hold up.
Hey, hold up.
335
00:12:10,097 --> 00:12:11,331
Hold up.
336
00:12:11,431 --> 00:12:14,201
[laughter]
337
00:12:14,301 --> 00:12:21,308
[cheering]
338
00:12:22,943 --> 00:12:23,844
Black Lives Matter.
339
00:12:23,944 --> 00:12:25,646
[laughter]
340
00:12:25,746 --> 00:12:27,181
But we don't have the time
to talk about those moments
341
00:12:27,281 --> 00:12:28,182
from the Committee.
342
00:12:28,282 --> 00:12:29,449
Because the biggest
news of the day
343
00:12:29,550 --> 00:12:32,719
is that the January 6 Committee
has issued a subpoena to
344
00:12:32,819 --> 00:12:35,923
speak to the chief
of poo-poo himself.
345
00:12:36,089 --> 00:12:38,492
Happening now, the
January 6 Select Committee
346
00:12:38,592 --> 00:12:42,095
punctuates its final hearing
before the midterm elections
347
00:12:42,129 --> 00:12:44,965
with a bombshell, a subpoena
for former President
348
00:12:45,098 --> 00:12:46,300
Donald Trump.
349
00:12:46,400 --> 00:12:50,470
So this afternoon, I am
offering this resolution,
350
00:12:50,571 --> 00:12:53,006
that the committee
direct the chairman
351
00:12:53,106 --> 00:12:56,410
to issue a subpoena
for relevant documents
352
00:12:56,510 --> 00:13:00,881
and testimony under oath
from Donald John Trump.
353
00:13:01,048 --> 00:13:02,382
Oh, shit!
354
00:13:02,482 --> 00:13:03,784
[cheering]
355
00:13:03,884 --> 00:13:05,719
What?
356
00:13:05,819 --> 00:13:10,591
What?
357
00:13:10,691 --> 00:13:12,459
That's what the J stands for?
358
00:13:12,559 --> 00:13:14,862
What a bombshell!
359
00:13:14,962 --> 00:13:16,129
Oh, and also the
fact that they just
360
00:13:16,230 --> 00:13:18,498
subpoenaed a former President
of the United States.
361
00:13:18,599 --> 00:13:19,967
And, I mean, hell,
yeah, finally.
362
00:13:20,067 --> 00:13:21,535
How are they only
deciding on this now?
363
00:13:21,635 --> 00:13:22,669
Huh?
Only now?
364
00:13:22,769 --> 00:13:24,204
It's like doing a whole
murder investigation,
365
00:13:24,304 --> 00:13:25,439
and then on the last
day, being like,
366
00:13:25,539 --> 00:13:26,874
should we, like,
talk to the murderer?
367
00:13:26,974 --> 00:13:28,375
Yeah?
368
00:13:28,475 --> 00:13:31,478
He might have some information
about the murder-- maybe.
369
00:13:31,578 --> 00:13:32,946
Now, even after this
came out, everyone
370
00:13:33,080 --> 00:13:35,816
assumes that Trump is not
going to show up to testify.
371
00:13:35,916 --> 00:13:37,918
But I feel like he's going
to be a little conflicted.
372
00:13:38,085 --> 00:13:39,152
Yeah, because on
the one hand, yes,
373
00:13:39,253 --> 00:13:40,320
he thinks this is
a crooked witch
374
00:13:40,420 --> 00:13:41,455
hunt that is out to get him.
375
00:13:41,555 --> 00:13:44,691
But on the other
hand, the ratings.
376
00:13:44,791 --> 00:13:46,627
Can you imagine the ratings?
377
00:13:46,727 --> 00:13:49,129
This would be like the Super
Bowl meets Watergate meets
378
00:13:49,229 --> 00:13:50,998
Game of Thrones
meets a mandatory HR
379
00:13:51,098 --> 00:13:52,199
video about sexual harassment.
380
00:13:52,299 --> 00:13:53,934
Everyone will be watching.
381
00:13:54,101 --> 00:13:56,103
[applause]
382
00:13:56,170 --> 00:13:58,539
Everyone will be watching.
383
00:13:58,639 --> 00:14:00,774
And we all know the only
thing Donald Trump loves
384
00:14:00,874 --> 00:14:02,242
more than ratings is
grabbing classified
385
00:14:02,342 --> 00:14:03,243
documents by the pussy.
386
00:14:03,343 --> 00:14:05,245
And, look, whether
you like Trump
387
00:14:05,345 --> 00:14:09,116
or not, you've got to admit,
this dude is a record breaker.
388
00:14:09,216 --> 00:14:13,487
First president to be impeached
twice, first president
389
00:14:13,587 --> 00:14:16,490
to be subpoenaed for staging
a coup, first president
390
00:14:16,590 --> 00:14:20,661
to go to prison maybe, first
prison to break out of prison,
391
00:14:20,761 --> 00:14:23,830
first president to escape
to Mexico, first President
392
00:14:23,931 --> 00:14:26,233
to be blocked by his own wall,
trying to escape to Mexico!
393
00:14:26,333 --> 00:14:30,070
[cheering]
394
00:14:30,137 --> 00:14:32,139
Now, look, if we had
the time, we could
395
00:14:32,239 --> 00:14:33,273
talk about Trump serving time.
396
00:14:33,373 --> 00:14:34,408
But, unfortunately, we
don't because it's time
397
00:14:34,508 --> 00:14:35,442
for us to take an ad break.
398
00:14:35,542 --> 00:14:36,443
We'll be right back.
399
00:14:36,543 --> 00:14:39,880
[cheering]
400
00:14:44,329 --> 00:14:50,769
[applause]
401
00:14:52,971 --> 00:14:55,006
Welcome back to
The Daily Show.
402
00:14:55,107 --> 00:14:57,776
As we just heard, Donald Trump
has been battling the Justice
403
00:14:57,876 --> 00:15:00,011
Department over whether
his little hoarding problem
404
00:15:00,112 --> 00:15:01,380
with government
documents has crossed
405
00:15:01,480 --> 00:15:03,281
the line into criminality.
406
00:15:03,382 --> 00:15:04,583
And if you've been
following the story,
407
00:15:04,683 --> 00:15:05,851
you know the documents
that Trump took
408
00:15:05,951 --> 00:15:07,285
from the White House
are currently being
409
00:15:07,386 --> 00:15:10,555
reviewed by a special master.
410
00:15:10,655 --> 00:15:12,991
Well, it turns out, in
an exclusive, very real
411
00:15:13,091 --> 00:15:15,227
interview, The
Daily Show has found
412
00:15:15,327 --> 00:15:18,597
out how this process is going.
413
00:15:18,697 --> 00:15:20,632
My name is Judge
Raymond Dearie,
414
00:15:20,732 --> 00:15:23,835
and I am currently the special
master appointed to review
415
00:15:23,935 --> 00:15:25,637
the files that were
in former President
416
00:15:25,737 --> 00:15:27,639
Trump's office in Mar-a-Lago.
417
00:15:27,739 --> 00:15:29,608
I've been a judge since 1986.
418
00:15:29,708 --> 00:15:32,210
I've had many great
moments in my career.
419
00:15:32,310 --> 00:15:35,847
This is a moment.
420
00:15:35,947 --> 00:15:38,283
It's fine.
421
00:15:38,383 --> 00:15:40,752
The first task is
dividing the documents
422
00:15:40,852 --> 00:15:45,657
into files that are classified,
files that are declassified,
423
00:15:45,757 --> 00:15:48,593
and files that are
stuffed with cold cuts.
424
00:15:48,693 --> 00:15:50,228
[laughter]
425
00:15:50,328 --> 00:15:52,164
The first one I thought
was just a mistake,
426
00:15:52,264 --> 00:15:54,700
but now I think he
thought the folders
427
00:15:54,800 --> 00:15:56,935
are also a type of bread?
428
00:15:57,002 --> 00:15:59,304
They're both kind
of brown, I guess.
429
00:15:59,404 --> 00:16:01,673
Is this where I saw
myself at age 78--
430
00:16:01,773 --> 00:16:03,942
sorting through an
ex-president's personal stash
431
00:16:04,009 --> 00:16:05,577
of America's most
sensitive secrets
432
00:16:05,677 --> 00:16:07,512
and his used underwear?
433
00:16:07,612 --> 00:16:08,947
No.
434
00:16:09,047 --> 00:16:12,617
I'd rather be on
a beach or dead.
435
00:16:12,718 --> 00:16:13,685
Dead sounds nice.
436
00:16:13,785 --> 00:16:15,987
You know, none of this
is very organized.
437
00:16:16,088 --> 00:16:18,557
I mean, here, we've got what
appears to be blueprints
438
00:16:18,657 --> 00:16:20,425
for a nuclear [bleep].
439
00:16:20,525 --> 00:16:22,527
So that should probably
go in the classified pile.
440
00:16:22,627 --> 00:16:24,696
But then you open
it up, and inside
441
00:16:24,796 --> 00:16:29,768
is just a copy of the 1983
May Beaver Hunt magazine.
442
00:16:29,868 --> 00:16:33,271
Then you open up Beaver Hunt,
and inside is a USB drive
443
00:16:33,372 --> 00:16:35,140
that's property of the CIA.
444
00:16:35,240 --> 00:16:37,342
And this thumb drive
holds critical nuclear--
445
00:16:37,442 --> 00:16:38,410
[computer dings]
446
00:16:38,510 --> 00:16:40,879
Oh, it's actually
just a digital version
447
00:16:40,979 --> 00:16:41,980
of Beaver Hunt magazine.
448
00:16:42,080 --> 00:16:44,116
[laughter]
449
00:16:44,216 --> 00:16:45,951
Well, this could
actually be interesting.
450
00:16:46,051 --> 00:16:48,186
But I have found some
interesting items.
451
00:16:48,286 --> 00:16:52,991
This is a to-do list that just
says President Macron's wife.
452
00:16:53,091 --> 00:16:56,762
I'm not even sure I understand
what-- oh, I get it.
453
00:16:56,928 --> 00:16:58,964
I can't believe I'm doing this.
454
00:16:59,064 --> 00:17:01,299
I've maintained a professional
relationship with President
455
00:17:01,400 --> 00:17:04,136
Trump in order to clarify
the nature of the documents,
456
00:17:04,236 --> 00:17:06,638
but it can be
difficult because he
457
00:17:06,738 --> 00:17:10,642
is, well, in the legal
sense, just so stupid.
458
00:17:10,742 --> 00:17:13,111
OK, but, Mr. President,
did you declassify
459
00:17:13,211 --> 00:17:15,947
this list of undercover
counterintelligence
460
00:17:15,981 --> 00:17:17,115
operatives?
461
00:17:17,215 --> 00:17:18,583
DONALD TRUMP: If you're
the President of the United
462
00:17:18,683 --> 00:17:21,453
States, you can declassify just
by saying it's declassified.
463
00:17:21,553 --> 00:17:23,722
Even by thinking about it.
464
00:17:23,822 --> 00:17:25,624
OK, well, how do I know
if you thought about--
465
00:17:25,724 --> 00:17:26,958
you know, never mind.
466
00:17:27,059 --> 00:17:29,361
These spies are as
good as dead anyways.
467
00:17:29,461 --> 00:17:31,163
I know the country is
eager for me to finish,
468
00:17:31,263 --> 00:17:34,966
but there's just so,
so much to go through.
469
00:17:35,000 --> 00:17:37,469
Like, piles.
470
00:17:37,569 --> 00:17:38,470
Help.
471
00:17:38,570 --> 00:17:41,206
Dumps of piles of stuff.
472
00:17:41,306 --> 00:17:42,974
Ow.
473
00:17:43,075 --> 00:17:45,210
God damn it, I hate
this job so much.
474
00:17:45,310 --> 00:17:46,378
This is hell.
475
00:17:46,478 --> 00:17:50,549
I mean, miserable,
agonizing, unyielding hell.
476
00:17:50,649 --> 00:17:54,286
But at least I
get a free lunch.
477
00:17:54,386 --> 00:17:59,157
[applause]
478
00:17:59,257 --> 00:18:00,358
Good luck, special master.
479
00:18:00,459 --> 00:18:01,793
All right, stay tuned
because when we come back,
480
00:18:01,927 --> 00:18:03,095
one of the stars
of the new Black
481
00:18:03,195 --> 00:18:04,996
Adam movie, Quintessa
Swindell, will
482
00:18:05,097 --> 00:18:05,997
be joining me on the show.
483
00:18:06,098 --> 00:18:06,998
So don't go away.
484
00:18:07,099 --> 00:18:09,468
[applause]
485
00:18:17,855 --> 00:18:18,256
[applause]
486
00:18:18,356 --> 00:18:23,060
[cheering]
487
00:18:23,160 --> 00:18:24,595
Welcome back to
The Daily Show.
488
00:18:24,695 --> 00:18:27,999
My guest tonight is an
actor he stars as Cyclone
489
00:18:28,099 --> 00:18:30,001
in the new superhero
film, Black
490
00:18:30,101 --> 00:18:31,836
Adam, which will
premiere in theaters
491
00:18:31,936 --> 00:18:34,472
nationwide October 21.
492
00:18:34,572 --> 00:18:36,674
That is insane.
493
00:18:36,774 --> 00:18:38,843
The nanobots did
most of the work.
494
00:18:38,943 --> 00:18:41,112
No, no, no, I'm not going
to let you downplay this.
495
00:18:41,212 --> 00:18:43,948
I literally just
witnessed a miracle.
496
00:18:44,048 --> 00:18:44,949
What?
497
00:18:45,049 --> 00:18:45,983
I say something stupid?
498
00:18:46,083 --> 00:18:48,019
No, it's just,
you can transform
499
00:18:48,119 --> 00:18:51,022
your molecular structure,
grow 100 times your own size.
500
00:18:51,122 --> 00:18:53,991
You're an impossibility and
the world still amazes you.
501
00:18:54,091 --> 00:18:58,329
I don't know, it's cool.
502
00:18:58,429 --> 00:19:00,131
Thank you.
503
00:19:00,231 --> 00:19:02,466
But it's not as
cool as nanobots.
504
00:19:02,567 --> 00:19:04,502
Please welcome,
Quintessa Swindell.
505
00:19:04,602 --> 00:19:11,609
[applause]
506
00:19:20,484 --> 00:19:21,452
Wow!
507
00:19:21,485 --> 00:19:22,486
Welcome to The Daily Show.
508
00:19:22,587 --> 00:19:23,688
Thank you, man, it's
a pleasure to be here.
509
00:19:23,788 --> 00:19:24,689
Thank you so much.
510
00:19:24,789 --> 00:19:26,023
It is a pleasure
to have you here.
511
00:19:26,123 --> 00:19:28,993
You know, you're in this movie,
and one of the people who
512
00:19:29,093 --> 00:19:31,462
is your co-star is Mo
Amer, is a comedian
513
00:19:31,495 --> 00:19:32,730
who I've been friends
with for a very long time.
514
00:19:32,830 --> 00:19:33,731
Yes.
515
00:19:33,831 --> 00:19:35,199
And so he sent me
a random message.
516
00:19:35,299 --> 00:19:36,901
You're just like, yo,
Q's coming to your show.
517
00:19:37,001 --> 00:19:37,902
Yeah.
518
00:19:38,002 --> 00:19:39,070
And gave me no
other information.
519
00:19:39,170 --> 00:19:40,071
Yeah!
520
00:19:40,171 --> 00:19:41,105
[laughs]
521
00:19:41,205 --> 00:19:44,642
When, who's Q,
how Q, I don't know.
522
00:19:44,742 --> 00:19:45,977
And then I was
like, oh, which Q?
523
00:19:46,077 --> 00:19:47,478
And then he's like, what
do you mean which Q?
524
00:19:47,578 --> 00:19:48,679
The only Q I work.
525
00:19:48,779 --> 00:19:50,147
I was like, Mo, I don't
keep, and now you're here.
526
00:19:50,248 --> 00:19:51,949
- Yeah.
- So welcome, Q.
527
00:19:52,049 --> 00:19:52,950
It is I.
528
00:19:53,050 --> 00:19:53,951
It is you.
529
00:19:54,051 --> 00:19:55,119
If you don't
know now, you know.
530
00:19:55,219 --> 00:19:58,222
It's easy.
531
00:19:58,322 --> 00:19:59,390
First things first.
532
00:19:59,490 --> 00:20:00,491
Thanks, yeah.
533
00:20:00,558 --> 00:20:01,993
Congratulations on
the journey you've had.
534
00:20:02,093 --> 00:20:03,794
I mean, people have
seen you on Euphoria,
535
00:20:03,895 --> 00:20:06,230
people have seen you on
the Netflix show Trinkets,
536
00:20:06,330 --> 00:20:10,034
and now to be in the DC film
Black Adam with The Rock.
537
00:20:10,134 --> 00:20:11,035
Yeah.
538
00:20:11,135 --> 00:20:12,036
I mean, this is huge.
539
00:20:12,136 --> 00:20:13,938
Yeah, no, it's
absolutely incredible.
540
00:20:14,038 --> 00:20:15,072
It's been a dream.
541
00:20:15,172 --> 00:20:17,475
I feel like I haven't
been working very long,
542
00:20:17,575 --> 00:20:19,911
but I've been able to work
with some truly incredible
543
00:20:20,011 --> 00:20:21,279
people in this industry.
544
00:20:21,445 --> 00:20:27,685
Pierce, Aldis, like Noah,
Mo, Marwan, Sarah, DJ,
545
00:20:27,785 --> 00:20:29,453
it's been truly incredible.
546
00:20:29,520 --> 00:20:30,454
I like that.
547
00:20:30,521 --> 00:20:31,589
You get to call him DJ.
548
00:20:31,689 --> 00:20:32,590
Yeah, sorry.
549
00:20:32,690 --> 00:20:33,591
No, no, no, I
mean, don't be sorry.
550
00:20:33,691 --> 00:20:34,625
I just call him DJ.
551
00:20:34,725 --> 00:20:35,593
That's like, those
are like the perks.
552
00:20:35,693 --> 00:20:36,594
DJ, Q, I'm learning.
553
00:20:36,694 --> 00:20:37,595
Right.
554
00:20:37,695 --> 00:20:39,463
These are the things.
555
00:20:39,530 --> 00:20:42,900
You listed those names, and
every single one of them
556
00:20:43,000 --> 00:20:45,570
has created a piece
of a franchise
557
00:20:45,670 --> 00:20:47,204
or they've been
part of a franchise,
558
00:20:47,305 --> 00:20:49,740
and there's so much pressure
that comes with that.
559
00:20:49,840 --> 00:20:52,109
But what you're doing is really
unique in that you are playing
560
00:20:52,209 --> 00:20:54,912
a character in this movie that
we haven't seen in a movie
561
00:20:55,012 --> 00:20:56,380
before, and that's Cyclone.
562
00:20:56,480 --> 00:20:57,748
And oftentimes,
people like to play
563
00:20:57,848 --> 00:20:59,850
a character that they've seen,
they grew up with, they saw.
564
00:20:59,951 --> 00:21:01,519
Sometimes it takes
the pressure off,
565
00:21:01,619 --> 00:21:02,853
sometimes it adds a
different pressure.
566
00:21:02,954 --> 00:21:04,855
In this case, how did you feel?
567
00:21:04,956 --> 00:21:06,924
Was it liberating to
just set the tone?
568
00:21:07,024 --> 00:21:08,960
Or were you a little
nervous that this is a,
569
00:21:09,060 --> 00:21:10,761
Cyclone is what you make of it?
570
00:21:10,861 --> 00:21:13,130
Well, I think it's
a little bit of both.
571
00:21:13,231 --> 00:21:17,501
I think like with what you
said, Cyclone has become such
572
00:21:17,602 --> 00:21:21,439
a, like an important person,
an important character
573
00:21:21,472 --> 00:21:23,975
in my life, and
she's formed so much
574
00:21:24,075 --> 00:21:28,446
of like how I enter spaces now
and how I embrace myself more.
575
00:21:28,546 --> 00:21:31,782
So there wasn't like any
pressure other than to just
576
00:21:31,882 --> 00:21:34,318
like be my most
like authentic self
577
00:21:34,452 --> 00:21:37,088
and embrace myself and
trust more, honestly.
578
00:21:37,188 --> 00:21:38,089
I love that.
579
00:21:38,189 --> 00:21:39,123
So, yeah.
580
00:21:39,223 --> 00:21:40,124
I really love that.
581
00:21:40,224 --> 00:21:42,627
Yeah, yeah.
582
00:21:42,727 --> 00:21:44,295
Have you have you ever
struggled with that?
583
00:21:44,462 --> 00:21:46,264
Because you give off this air.
584
00:21:46,364 --> 00:21:50,234
In every interview that you do,
every screening, every vibe,
585
00:21:50,334 --> 00:21:52,837
you give off this
energy of just being
586
00:21:52,937 --> 00:21:54,205
comfortable in who you are.
587
00:21:54,305 --> 00:21:56,007
I mean, when the
news came out, you
588
00:21:56,107 --> 00:21:58,476
know, that DC was celebrating
the fact that you were
589
00:21:58,576 --> 00:22:01,479
the first known non-binary
person playing a character
590
00:22:01,512 --> 00:22:04,315
in this universe, even that,
you just seem to just carry
591
00:22:04,482 --> 00:22:05,950
with you and you're like,
yeah, this is who I am,
592
00:22:06,050 --> 00:22:06,984
this is how I'm living my life.
593
00:22:07,084 --> 00:22:08,352
Like where did you
get that swag from?
594
00:22:08,486 --> 00:22:09,353
I'd love to know.
595
00:22:09,487 --> 00:22:10,488
I don't know.
596
00:22:10,554 --> 00:22:13,257
I mean, it's taken like
quite a bit of time
597
00:22:13,357 --> 00:22:15,560
to like embrace
that part of myself.
598
00:22:15,660 --> 00:22:18,696
I feel like so much of my life
I've always been searching
599
00:22:18,796 --> 00:22:21,465
for who I am, my
identity, my family,
600
00:22:21,566 --> 00:22:22,900
my friends, everything.
601
00:22:23,000 --> 00:22:25,202
And like I said
in the beginning,
602
00:22:25,303 --> 00:22:28,439
like I've been so lucky to have
representations of who I want
603
00:22:28,472 --> 00:22:30,007
to be each step of the way.
604
00:22:30,107 --> 00:22:31,008
That's cool.
605
00:22:31,108 --> 00:22:34,545
Whether it's,
whether it's the people
606
00:22:34,645 --> 00:22:37,081
that I'm working with or just
the people that I've been
607
00:22:37,181 --> 00:22:39,183
able to meet who've
helped me cultivate
608
00:22:39,283 --> 00:22:40,618
who I am and embrace who I am.
609
00:22:40,718 --> 00:22:43,921
And as far as like being the
first known non-binary person,
610
00:22:44,021 --> 00:22:46,524
I think that's so important you
said that, because there could
611
00:22:46,624 --> 00:22:48,993
be other non-binary people
who are questioning,
612
00:22:49,093 --> 00:22:50,294
trans people who
aren't fully out yet.
613
00:22:50,461 --> 00:22:51,362
Right.
614
00:22:51,462 --> 00:22:54,532
And for me, being
able to be fully out,
615
00:22:54,632 --> 00:22:56,667
hopefully can serve
as representation
616
00:22:56,767 --> 00:22:59,470
for other people to
embrace who they are
617
00:22:59,570 --> 00:23:00,771
and step into themselves.
- I like that.
618
00:23:00,871 --> 00:23:02,073
Because yeah.
619
00:23:02,173 --> 00:23:03,274
I love that.
620
00:23:03,374 --> 00:23:04,942
Yeah.
621
00:23:05,042 --> 00:23:09,113
You know, I love
it because, I love it
622
00:23:09,213 --> 00:23:12,149
because in many ways,
all superhero stories are
623
00:23:12,250 --> 00:23:13,551
an allegory for that journey.
624
00:23:13,651 --> 00:23:17,121
It's the journey of somebody
possessing two identities.
625
00:23:17,221 --> 00:23:20,725
It's the journey of somebody
being one person to the people
626
00:23:20,825 --> 00:23:22,660
who know them and then being
somebody completely different
627
00:23:22,760 --> 00:23:23,961
and being their true selves.
628
00:23:24,061 --> 00:23:25,463
I would love to
know, what do you
629
00:23:25,563 --> 00:23:28,332
think you learned about the
idea of like what being a
630
00:23:28,432 --> 00:23:29,767
hero is?
631
00:23:29,867 --> 00:23:32,970
Ooh, OK, such
a good question.
632
00:23:33,070 --> 00:23:35,439
I mean, I feel like
for me, it shifted,
633
00:23:35,506 --> 00:23:37,942
because you begin to
question what you've
634
00:23:38,042 --> 00:23:39,911
been indoctrinated to believe.
635
00:23:40,011 --> 00:23:43,514
For me personally, it's
how as a Western society
636
00:23:43,614 --> 00:23:45,082
do we view justice.
637
00:23:45,182 --> 00:23:50,221
And do we have the power to
go elsewhere and rid a problem
638
00:23:50,321 --> 00:23:51,923
just like in Black Adam?
- Yes.
639
00:23:52,023 --> 00:23:53,190
We're telling
him to be a hero,
640
00:23:53,291 --> 00:23:55,526
but he's already a
hero for his people.
641
00:23:55,626 --> 00:23:58,129
And I think in today's
society and in this world,
642
00:23:58,229 --> 00:23:59,363
we see that so often.
643
00:23:59,463 --> 00:24:02,199
People rising up and
people being able to choose
644
00:24:02,300 --> 00:24:03,701
who their leaders are.
645
00:24:03,801 --> 00:24:06,470
And for me, that made
me question that as well
646
00:24:06,537 --> 00:24:10,241
and learn more and learn about
what's happening in the world
647
00:24:10,341 --> 00:24:13,711
today and be curious and
be an advocate of that, so.
648
00:24:13,811 --> 00:24:14,712
I love it.
649
00:24:14,812 --> 00:24:15,780
You crushed it.
650
00:24:15,880 --> 00:24:17,214
You crushed it in
everything that you do,
651
00:24:17,315 --> 00:24:18,583
and I'm so excited
to see the film.
652
00:24:18,683 --> 00:24:19,884
Thank you so much for
being on the show.
653
00:24:19,984 --> 00:24:20,885
Oh, man, thank you.
654
00:24:20,985 --> 00:24:21,953
It's such a pleasure
having you here.
655
00:24:22,053 --> 00:24:22,954
Thank you.
656
00:24:23,054 --> 00:24:24,121
Quintessa
Swindell, everybody.
657
00:24:24,222 --> 00:24:25,256
We're going to
take a quick break.
658
00:24:25,423 --> 00:24:28,092
We'll be right back after this.
659
00:24:34,474 --> 00:24:35,342
[applause]
660
00:24:35,442 --> 00:24:36,543
Well, that's our
show for tonight.
661
00:24:36,643 --> 00:24:37,544
Charlamagne is up next.
662
00:24:37,644 --> 00:24:40,714
Now here it is,
your moment of zen.
663
00:24:40,814 --> 00:24:42,983
Bacon is delicious,
but you cannot eat
664
00:24:43,083 --> 00:24:44,451
it for breakfast
every day because it
665
00:24:44,551 --> 00:24:46,086
is just fat and it's bad.
666
00:24:46,186 --> 00:24:48,421
So you get up, you have
some Raisin Bran and fruit.
667
00:24:48,522 --> 00:24:49,422
Healthy.
668
00:24:49,523 --> 00:24:51,258
Healthy start to a great day.
669
00:24:51,358 --> 00:24:52,759
Wrong.
670
00:24:52,859 --> 00:24:57,030
All of a sudden, Raisin Bran
does not qualify as healthy.
