ANNOUNCER: Coming to you from New
York City, the only city in America, it's The Daily Show.
Tonight, the midterm elections are heating up,
Soledad O'Brien, and Amy Schumer.
This is The Daily Show with Trevor Noah.
[cheering]
What's going On, everybody?
Welcome to The Daily Show. I'm Trevor Noah.
Thank you so much for tuning in.
Thank you for coming out in person.
Thank you so much for being here,
Everybody Good to see you. Good to see you.
Take a seat. Take a seat.
Let's do this.
We've got a great show for you tonight.
TikTok is growing up.
Rap music is now for Republicans.
And did you hear that knock on the door?
It could be your weed.
Plus, we have two guests on the show tonight.
Journalist and documentarian Soledad O'Brien is here.
And then Amy Schumer is also going
to be joining us on the show.
So let's do this, people.
Let's jump straight into today's headlines.
[cheering]
[music playing]
All right, before we get into the big stories,
let's catch up on a few other things going on in the world.
In tech news, TikTok has officially
announced that users will now be able to run
live streams for adults only.
But before you get excited, the app
says that nudity and sexually explicit content
will still be prohibited.
[booing]
Which like, what's adult-themed,
if it's not sex and nudity?
You know, it's just like, oh, who's ready to watch
me refinance my mortgage?
The interest rates are so huge right now.
I don't think I can afford to live in my house anymore.
In international news, Japan's oldest toilets,
which was 500 years old, was destroyed
when a man accidentally backed his car up over it.
You know, I've heard about people trying to cover up what
they did in the bathroom, but this is-- this
is taking it a step too far.
It's also amazing how putting the word oldest
suddenly adds gravitas to something that none of us
actually care about. He broke the toilet.
So?
It was the oldest toilet.
Oh, no.
I need to call my mom.
And by the way, if you're wondering,
the oldest toilets in New York City is the subway.
In some consumer news, Uber Eats
has announced that they will start
delivering weed in Toronto, Canada, which is amazing.
Yeah, weed delivery-- what a game-changing service
that no one has already been using forever,
especially under the name repair guy on my phone.
Wow.
All right, let's move on to some
of the big stories of the day.
We are now in the home stretch of the midterm campaign
season, which means it's almost that time of the year
when you wake up on that one special morning in November,
and you're like, oh shit, I forgot to vote yesterday.
And with just three weeks to go,
this is the last chance for the candidates
and the shadowy billionaires who fund them to make
their case to the voters.
And as always, they're making that case
through campaign ads.
In fact, a record $9.7 billion worth of ads.
So if you live in a swing state,
basically every ad you're seeing on TV right now
is a campaign ad.
By the time November comes around,
you're going to be praying to see
the ads that you used to hate. No more.
Please, I just want to know when Toyotathon is on, please.
Now I don't need to tell you guys,
but political ads in America can get pretty wild.
They really can.
And as the country becomes more and more polarized,
the type of political ads that come out
become more and more intense.
So I figured, let's enjoy some of the latest
blockbusters in another installment of Votedemic 2022.
[music playing]
All right, let's start our ad watch with the Republicans.
Now, for this election, they want everything to be
focused on three issues--
inflation, crime, and pretending they didn't hear
that thing Trump just said.
So they've been running ads emphasizing these issues.
Some of them have been subtle, but Louisiana
Senator John Kennedy has decided
that subtle is not his style.
Violent crime is surging in Louisiana.
Woke leaders blame the police.
I blame the criminals.
A mom should not have to look over her shoulder
when she's pumping gas.
I voted against the early release of violent criminals.
And I opposed defunding the police.
Look, if you hate cops, just because they're
cops, the next time you get in trouble, call a crackhead.
I'm John Kennedy, and I approve this message.
[laughing]
OK. All right.
First of all, nobody's going to call a crackhead.
It's 2022.
I'm going to text a crackhead.
Such a crazy way to frame things though, right?
He's like, (SOUTHERN ACCENT) violent crime--
call a crackhead.
The senator's acting like cop and crackhead
are the only two options.
That's it.
What about social workers?
What about mental health experts?
What about heroin addicts?
There's a whole range, people.
It's also weird for a guy who's been in office for six years
to complain about crime and then campaign on it.
I find that a little strange.
He's like, (SOUTHERN ACCENT) ever since I got into office,
crime has exploded.
Re-elect me so I can figure out what's going on.
Because like, I don't know where this logic goes.
Right?
Because no matter what happens, Republicans
always want more cops.
Crime is up, we need more cops.
Crime is down, we need more cops.
Like what, is the plan just to keep
hiring until the entire population is just cops?
(SOUTHERN ACCENT) Yeah, that way I got an eye on me.
Yeah.
Maybe the solution is just to hire crackheads as cops.
Yeah, because, first of all, they're always
there when you need them.
And say what you will about cops versus crackheads,
but at least the crackhead is not
going to plant crack on you.
They're keeping it for themselves.
It works out.
[applause]
I know it might be a little crazy, but you got to admit,
a crackhead detective show--
that sounds like a great idea for a CSI spinoff.
The victim is on the table, next to the flowers
that he bought for Valentine's Day.
I guess that means it's time to go smoke some crack.
[music playing]
A weird premise.
Now obviously, Democrats have a whole different set of issues
that they want to emphasize.
Voters don't trust them on the economy or inflation
right now.
So the Dems want this election to be about things
like climate change, protecting democracy,
and pretending that they didn't hear the thing
that Joe Biden just said.
But the main issue Democrats are running on
is reproductive rights.
And California Congressman Eric Swalwell just
put out one of the most hardcore
campaign ads you've ever seen.
What the hell?
[knocking]
Mary Anderson?
Yes?
I have a warrant for your arrest.
Arrest for what?
Unlawful termination of a pregnancy.
You've got to be kidding me?
That-- that is my personal business.
That's for the courts to decide, ma'am.
Your medical records have been subpoenaed
and Dr. Landrieu's already in custody.
No.
My-- my god, you--
you can't just--
You will have to submit to a physical examination.
What? By who?
No. No.
No one is touching my wife. - Sir, get in--
[interposing voices] - The kids.
The kids. The kids.
[baby screaming] - Ma'am, turn around.
Oh, my god.
Put your hands behind your back now.
Why is this happening?
Love you, honeybear.
We're just enforcing the law here.
ANNOUNCER: Elections have consequences.
Vote Democrat on November 8.
Holy shit.
That was intense.
You don't usually expect a campaign ad
to turn into an episode of Black Mirror.
What was that?
Like, I actually feel bad for the shows that had to come
back from that ad break.
Hey, did you see that-- why is this happening?
Mom!
You'll never see your mother again.
No!
And now, back to Young Sheldon.
Look, it is wild.
It is wild how overturning Roe has upended society
so much that now white women can be as scared of the police
as Black people are.
And yes-- and yes, this ad is obviously exaggerating things
to make a point, but it is true that in many states
in America, cops could show up at your door
if you had an abortion.
They could arrest you.
And they could force you to have a physical examination.
I mean, ironically, it's probably
the only free health care you'll ever get in America.
But so look, I know--
I know this ad was a little heavy.
So I thought, you know, let's lighten
things up with a local campaign ad
for Linda Paulson out of Utah.
Now, you probably look at this picture and you think, aw.
There's no way this little old lady could spit
fire over a dope rap beat.
Well, guess what?
You're right.
[music playing]
(SINGING) Hey, Utah district 12, listen up right here.
There's a new name on the ballot for the Senate
this year.
I'm pro religious freedom, pro-life, pro-police,
the right to bear arms, and the right to free speech.
But in schools they are pushing for new beliefs.
And just to clarify, as a female adult
I know what a woman is.
If you share my values, if you like what I stand for,
then give me your vote on the 8th of November.
District 12 needs a choice.
Let me be your voice.
Linda Paulson.
Linda Paulson for Senate.
I-- I don't exactly know how, but I'm pretty sure that,
that was racism.
I don't know how.
I don't know if you noticed this--
did you-- did you notice that at some point
the beat stopped.
But it stopped itself.
Like she was so off beat, it's almost like the beat was
like am I the one messing up?
Wait.
What-- do you know I'm here?
What is happening?
Yeah, gangsta rap, Linda.
Unfortunately, after recording that track,
Linda was hit in a drive-by shooting.
Yes.
Tragic, but when you're in the game, you're in the game
all the way.
Here's my question.
Who is this for?
Who is this ad for, right?
Because she is a conservative Republican in Utah.
Nobody who supports her, likes rap.
And nobody who likes rap, is going to see this video
and be like, man, I wasn't going to vote for Republicans,
but her flow just can't be denied, B.
And by the way, if you are a politician who insists
on rapping in a campaign video, can you at least try rapping
in a style from this century?
Huh?
I'm Linda Paulson, and I'm here--
your shit is corny, Ms. Paulson.
Get with the times.
Update your rap.
Like use a trap beat, at least.
In fact, the trap beat is actually
better for politicians, because nobody can
understand what you're saying.
You can just dodge any moment at any debate or any reporter.
You know, just be like, Senator,
what is your position on cutting Medicare?
Well, here's what I'd do,
[trap music speech]
And I think that answers your question.
[applause]
Vote for me.
You know what I was thinking is like, when you think about it,
Joe Biden has basically been doing
trap music this whole time.
[indistinct muttering]
Come on, man.
[indistinct muttering]
All right, that's it for today's headlines.
Let's move on to something that everyone loves.
It's time to check in on today's lotto
numbers with our very own Dulcé Sloan, everybody.
[cheering]
Hello.
Dulcé Sloan, good to see you.
How are you doing today?
I'm good, friend.
How about you?
TREVOR: I'm fantastic, Dulcé.
But today, we don't have much time, so please can we get
straight to the lotto numbers.
I got you, baby. Let's do this lotto.
All right, y'all ready?
Y'all ready?
[cheering]
All right.
40.
19. TREVOR: Oh, yeah.
29.
TREVOR: This is it. - 31.
TREVOR: Uh-huh.
And finally-- oh, but before that, hold on.
Uh-- TREVOR: Wait.
No, what? Wait, don't-- The num--
Listen, I heard Uber Eats is delivering drugs.
TREVOR: Yeah.
Is that-- they're delivering drugs now?
TREVOR: In Canada, they're delivering weed.
OK.
That's good to know, because like, well, is it good though?
Because before we had to worry about them eating our food.
Now you got to worry about these fools
stealing your weed.
Now your food being late is one thing,
but I don't want to end up in a drug deal gone bad.
Do you understand?
Now if my Uber is late and steals my food, it's fine.
I'll get over it.
But if you steal my food and my weed,
oh now, I got to fight you.
I'm going for Liam Neeson.
Do you understand?
Well, how are you going to find the driver?
They already on a map in a car.
Come on, dude.
You can't play with me. Don't play with me.
I got motivation.
I'm not even high yet.
Come on.
I got focused.
Now I could have smoked the weed
and forgot about the food, but now I don't have either.
We got to fight today.
All right?
TREVOR: All right, let's do the-- let's do the numbers,
please, Dulcé?
And the rap lady, Linda Paulson--
Linda Paulson, oh.
You all didn't talk about that choreography.
Linda Paulson, did you see that?
[laughing]
She had the moves, Linda Paulson.
She was right next to the flag, had her scarf on.
She was right-- listen, she was going to twerk in two seconds,
I promise you.
You know what?
Let's talk about this woman.
Throw the woman up on the screen.
We're going-- Come on.
Look at that fa--
Linda Paulson, you know when she ready.
Now, we know she's going to win.
TREVOR: What? - OK?
You know she's going to win.
With skills like that, you know she's going to win.
If she wins, she got to have a concert.
And you know she's missing?
A rap name.
Come on, the Notorious OLD.
Trevor, the Wu-Tang Gran ain't nothing to [bleep] with.
I'm talking about Betty Whop, OK?
Gertrude the Stallion.
Old Thug.
Little Granny Vert.
Oldish Gambino.
Cardi AARP.
[cheering]
I could do this all day, Trevor.
Sickly Minaj.
She could get the grandkids and her together,
and now it's what--
Bones Spurs and Harmony Baby.
Come on.
We're looking at Osteo Bone, right here.
And you know what?
I'm really looking forward to her first single--
to the first single, "Life Alert."
Because these hoes falling, but you know
Linda Paulson always get up.
You see what I mean?
This is insane.
Now, if this is the adult TikTok--
if this is adult TikTok, oh, please,
sign me up, because I want to follow Old Dirty Beatrice, OK?
Anyway, I'm leaving.
Your last number is 16.
Bye.
TREVOR: Dulcé Sloan, everybody.
Thank you so much for that.
All right, when we come back, I'm
going to be chatting to Soledad O'Brien, so don't go away.
[cheering]
[applause]
Welcome back to The Daily Show.
My first guest tonight is an award-winning journalist
who's here to talk about her new documentary
available on Peacock October 19 called, The Rebellious
Life of Mrs. Rosa Parks.
We was determined to see that Rosa Parks was recognized.
There's so much patriarchy built into the movement,
like it's built into so many institutions.
Women raise most of the money, do most of the organizing.
But when you go back and check the record,
those who have been labeled presidents or directors
or the leaders, the Grand Poobah, largely
have been men, while the women have done the work.
And Mother Parks, she was doing the work.
Please welcome Soledad O'Brien.
[cheering]
[applause]
Soledad O'Brien, welcome to The Daily Show.
Thank you so much. It's nice to be here.
Yeah, nice to be here in person.
I know. I like that.
Last time we spoke was virtually,
and now we are here.
And you are here with honestly, one of the most fascinating
accounts of a life that I feel everybody
thinks they knows about, and yet nobody does, Rosa Parks.
If you told me I'm going to make a documentary film
about Rosa Parks, I'd go, why?
There are so many of them.
There's never been a documentary about Rosa Parks.
How is that possible?
Because everybody thinks they know the story of Rosa Parks.
But actually, what you know, is mostly not accurate.
And there's so much that you don't know.
So it's, she's an absolutely fascinating topic for a doc.
Well, I'll say this.
Before I watched the documentary, and maybe
until a few years ago, I would have always said,
the story of Rosa Parks is a story of this old lady who
was a Black woman and she got onto a bus
and they told her that she had to sit at the back of the bus,
and she said no, and she sat at the front.
And then her momentary moment of rebellion--
Day and a half.
--Sparked, sparked this entire
civil rights conversation in and around America.
She was 42 years old when that happened.
And in fact, she wasn't at the front of the bus.
She was in the middle of the bus, a section
for Black people, that when a white person decided
to sit there, the Black people had to get up,
because white people didn't want
to sit next to Black people--
Wow.
--In the middle of the bus.
And so on that day, she decided, no.
The way the story goes was, she was tired.
And when she would tell that story later, she'd say,
you know, I tell people that I was tired,
and I was no more tired than any other workday.
But I was tired of being pushed around.
When she died, The New York Times described her
as "the accidental matriarch."
But her life story was absolutely not accidental
at all.
It seems like she was not only calculated,
but she was focused and purposeful
in everything that she did.
Everything.
For instance, she was an active member of the NAACP.
She was actively engaging in civil rights
and mobilizing people.
And this documentary I think, talks about Rosa Parks,
but it talks about a larger issue
that we have in how we shape narratives,
in that a lot of the time, women
have been erased from the work that they have done
in countless movements, not just in America,
but around the world.
Yeah, absolutely.
And I think especially in the Civil Rights movement.
Rosa Parks, and again, I never thought
about what happened after the Montgomery bus boycott, right.
She sits on the bus.
There's a boycott. It ends.
Yeah.
Everybody goes back to normal.
Well, no.
Rosa Parks is never able to work again.
Wow.
And even as civil rights legend in her own community,
she had to move to Detroit.
That was part of her reason for moving to Detroit.
Her husband never able to work again.
I had no idea.
She never was able to leverage a lot of the money
that civil rights leaders were able to do speaking around
the country, around the globe.
She had no access to any of that.
And absolutely desperately in need of money.
I mean, it was so interesting to me
to see how wrong we all have been about Rosa Parks.
She was an activist for decades.
Decade after decade after, I mean,
she was a fan of Dr. King and a big fan
of Malcolm X. She worked with the Black Panthers.
Like, Rosa Parks!
Who knew?
You see you don't realize this, yeah,
until you watch a documentary like this
and you see the story being told.
Do you think in a case like this,
it is actively people trying to push
Rosa Parks out of a narrative?
Or is it just unfortunately a byproduct
of a world that's focused on the men who
are doing the same thing that the women are?
I think it's a little bit of both.
So I think, I think when you get to write the narrative,
then the men will star in the narrative.
It's their story and they'll tell it.
But I also think, I mean Dorothy
Height was one of the founders of the March on Washington.
Did not get to speak at all, but there she
was, one of the organizers.
So I think part of it is that, just not allowed to kind
of be part of that story.
But I'm always interested in why
are we so comfortable with this accidental civil rights
leader, when she literally, from the time
she was a child--
Yeah.
--She was mad about how white children were able to have
buses and go to school and better schools
than she was able to go to.
Like, she knew it from the time she was a little kid.
There was absolutely nothing that was accidental about her.
So why do we feel so comfortable with this lesson
of, it was just soft and easy and comfortable and then
one day there was this thing and then she sat
and then it ended and the end?
Do you think, do you think that sometimes it's
because people like to hear about a story that
seems to happen organically?
Because oftentimes, movements may
fall under the weight of somebody's idea of how planned
or calculated they were.
Because when you look at all Civil rights
leaders around the world, whether it's Martin Luther
King Jr., whether it's Malcolm X, whether it's Nelson
Mandela, whoever it is, Winnie Mandela, whoever it is,
anywhere you go, you find that they were a lot more planned
and calculated in fighting for people's liberation
than they were given the credit for at times.
And so do you ever wonder if it's
almost what society wants?
I think it's a better narrative.
I think it's more interesting to be accidental
when she clearly was not.
I also think the work of civil rights,
whether it is Nelson Mandela or anyone, is a slog.
It literally is almost a boring story.
It is.
Day after day, year after year, decade after decade.
You took two steps forward, and sometimes three steps back.
But sometimes one step back, right.
Like, that's really the story.
And I kind of like that story, because I
think people should have an honest sense
of how it actually works.
That not one day someone accidentally
stumbles upon being the matriarch of the Civil Rights.
Like, that's insane.
It makes no sense.
Of course it's planning, of course, it's strategy,
of course, it's intentional.
I think we undermine all the work that went into the Civil
Rights movement by pretending that somehow a handful
of people stumbled together.
During the bus boycott, it is amazing to me
that teachers sent home notes with little children
saying, on Monday, tell your parents
do not put you on the bus.
No one told anyone.
The secret did not get out.
It was a complete surprise.
I mean, how organized, by women, and calculated
does that have to be that not one
kid mentioned to anybody like, there's going
to be a boycott on Monday?
I think that is insane and important.
- That's pretty genius. - And impressive.
Yeah.
So why not know the real story?
And why bother with this fake story?
It is genius.
Also, because if you give a kid a note
to take home to their mom--
Might not get there.
They don't want to talk at all,
so they're just like, oh, they told
me to give you this note, Mom.
It's like, is it about me?
No, no, we're good?
Oh, good, thank you.
I really loved watching this. - Thank you.
Because I think it tells a story that needs to be told.
And I think it encourages people,
if you ask me, because to what you're saying about building
and growing, I think we do live in a society
where people think that change happens overnight.
And when you see how long the slog is
and when you see the result from that time that gets put
in, I think it maybe sometimes becomes inspiring to know
that change can take effect. - It takes a long time.
Yeah.
Thank you so much for joining me on the show.
Thank you so much for having me on.
Wonderful seeing you again.
All right, everybody stay tuned,
because when we come back, Amy Schumer
is going to be joining me on the show, so don't go away.
[cheering]
Welcome back to The Daily Show.
My next guest tonight is an actor and a comedian,
who's currently on a nationwide standup comedy tour.
And the fifth season of her show,
Inside Amy Schumer, will premiere
October 20 on Paramount+.
We're the first hospital where each patient's care is
paid for entirely by their ability to crowdsource
money on the internet.
Welcome to St. GoFundMe's.
The whole thing with begging for money from strangers
to stay alive was a horrible process to go through
that I would wish on no one.
But at the same time, I know that reading about my recovery
online made some people go, aw, and that's
what it's all about.
Please, welcome Amy Schumer.
[cheering]
[music playing]
Oh, thank you.
- Amy Schumer. - Trevor Noah.
Welcome to The Daily Show.
Thank you. I'm going to miss you.
Don't leave.
Wha-- wha-- what do you mean?
I mean, you know what I mean.
Well, wait. Well, wait.
But you make it--
you make it sound like I'm dying.
I'll see you in comedy clubs.
I'll see you-- you're on tour.
You're doing other things. You--
I know, but I don't want to see you in person.
I want to see you on TV.
[laughter]
Where you belong.
- It's good to see you-- - Thank you.
--back where you belong, Inside Amy Schumer.
We have waited such a long time.
You've been so patient.
It was critically acclaimed.
What did you win, like, three Emmy Awards, right?
Nominated multiple times.
You've been up there, accepting.
God. TREVOR NOAH: It was huge.
- Wow. - And then you disappeared.
You became a movie star.
And then you worked on a New York Times best-selling book.
And it was just like, Amy's gone, and then it's like, no,
Amy is back now. - I'm back.
You're still doing everything else.
Yeah.
But, like, why did you make us wait this long?
Well, first of all, I'm so sorry about that.
You know, like, somebody in the media, but especially a woman,
people get annoyed when they see you too much.
So you have to kind of disappear a little bit.
And then you, like, pop out like a groundhog just like,
I'm still here.
You know, but then it's just-- you just want
to burn women to the stake.
I mean, really, it's just--
which makes me want to give a shoutout to the Iranian women
right now.
[cheering]
Zan, Zendegi, Azadi.
When you look at a situation like what's happening in Iran,
and you think of some of the positions
that you've taken, like, let's say
in standup, where you've gone, you know,
Amy should shut up about this.
Amy shouldn't talk about that.
Oh, politics, this is not your place.
Just shut up and be funny.
Actually, you're not even funny.
Yeah.
It feels like-- and I'm not even comparing the two worlds,
by the way.
AMY SCHUMER: Right, right.
But it feels like there is a certain level of--
there's a camaraderie around the world
right now, where women are saying,
we experience many instances of men policing us
and how we do or dress or say or perform.
And in creating your show--
Yeah.
--do you think of that first?
Is that, like, what's on the top of your mind?
Or do you just naturally go into that as Amy?
Because everything you do is so scathing and insightful.
Thank you.
Tell my husband that.
I love a little respect at home, but--
just an ounce.
But, no, I don't even--
I think I was one of those people who was, like, didn't
identify as a feminist, like, didn't know what it meant,
that it just meant equality.
But it's always just been in me.
And so the show--
like, some journalist one time said
it was like sneaking shaved carrots in with the brownies,
which is like this show too.
It's like people don't want to feel like they're
learning something.
But if you can make people laugh
and have a point, that's the only way I want
to learn anything, you know?
And that's the only way I like learning things.
Yeah.
You do that in the show.
You also-- you've also shared a part of your life
that has been particularly interesting, I found.
There used to be a period where Amy Schumer
was all jokes, all facade.
And then something changed.
You started sharing the ups and downs.
You talked about plastic surgery and your journey.
You talked about childbirth.
You talked about being a mother.
And where everyone thought it would only
land in a punch line, there started being
a lot more vulnerability.
I would love to know why you chose
that because it feels like you're
just opening yourself up.
And people, luckily, loved what you did.
But why would you choose to do that?
I think it came from not being raised well.
No, I mean, you know, but you know what I mean?
Like, you're supposed to have healthy boundaries.
OK.
And I just never developed those.
So, I mean, I'm joking, but I'm also
serious with I feel better when I share things about myself,
when I admit to the most horrible thing.
Like, I've been listening to this podcast.
It's like Secrets or something.
It's really-- like, you feel sick listening to it.
But you just-- you feel a weight lifted.
And then I just--
I found that when I was honest about my struggles
and the things I was battling with that I
was ashamed of, people were expressing, like, me too.
And that made me feel so much better.
And so that makes me feel like it's worth opening my mouth,
you know, to make people laugh and feel better--
and to be authentic.
You know, I think people can tell.
It's a challenge though.
It is.
I mean, because there's authenticity,
but there's also-- you're still performing.
And so you're always trying to find that balance.
Do your friends or family ever say,
Amy, that's a little too much?
I've learned to ask people, if they don't want jokes
about them, that it's not worth it to burn any bridges
with your friends and family.
TREVOR NOAH: What do you think you're
going to do, like, with kids?
Because a lot of comedians think their kids
are really funny. - Yeah.
- And they are. - Yeah.
You have to admit, they are.
But then now some kids might go,
I don't like that you told that joke about me.
Oh, yeah, I don't plan on--
I really-- [laughs] I already--
I don't think I'm becoming a better parent.
But I think I'm just getting used to failing.
You know, like, you just fail so hard all the time.
And you know what I named my son?
TREVOR NOAH: No.
Oh, gosh, OK.
First name, Gene, because that was my husband's father's
name, and then his last name-- my husband's
last name is Fischer, which is why I, Amy, won't take it.
I don't know if you know who Amy Fischer was.
You might have missed that.
But it's not who you want to share a Google alert with.
And then I wanted to pay tribute
to Dave Attell, my favorite comedian, my good friend.
TREVOR NOAH: Oh, yes.
So I made his middle name Attell.
I named him "Genital Fissure."
[laughter]
That was--
Please, make eye contact with me.
Genital Fissure, OK?
Yeah, and so I-- but I don't want to joke about him.
I try not to post pictures of him.
I don't want to say anything that--
like, that needs no saying.
You know you could have changed the name.
You could have just changed the name.
Well, yeah, we changed it to Fingerbang Shit Snatch.
[laughter]
Is that better or--
It depends on who your audience is.
Yeah, I guess. [laughter]
You're back on tour now-- AMY SCHUMER: Yeah.
TREVOR NOAH: --filling out some of the biggest
arenas around the country, traveling
wherever you want to.
What does Amy Schumer want to do now?
I'd love to know.
Like, where do you go from here?
What are your dreams?
What are your aspirations?
Or do you just cruise through life?
Well, I love not working.
Like, you know?
I've heard good things about it.
Right? Oh my god.
I've heard good things about it.
[applause]
I would love to-- no, I'm proud of my career.
And I want to keep doing things that I'm proud of
and creating content that I think is funny and helpful.
But I want to hang out with my family a bunch.
And I want to go on a boat.
[laughter]
Invite me on your boat.
Where's my camera?
Yeah, I want to-- yeah.
Who are you inviting on a boat?
I don't know.
I want to go on a boat.
You know people-- you always see famous people on boats.
Are you saying a boat or yacht?
You're right.
I'm going to upgrade it-- a yacht boat.
OK.
Invite me on your yacht boat.
TREVOR NOAH: Invite Amy Schumer on your yacht boat
if you have one.
Thank you so much for joining me on the show.
Great seeing you again.
Amy Schumer, everybody.
We're going to take a quick break.
But we'll be right back after this.
Thank you very much.
[cheering]
Well, that's our show for tonight.
But before we go, before we go, please
consider supporting the violence intervention
program in New York City.
They work within Latino communities
to end domestic and sexual violence
by providing emergency shelter, advocacy for long term
economic stability and healing for survivors
and their children.
So if you want to support them in this amazing work,
then please donate at the link below.
Until next time, stay safe out there, and remember--
anyone can rap, but not everyone should.
Now here it is, your moment of zen.
NARRATOR: This midterm, Ohioans have to make a tough choice.
Do you want an ass kisser?
Donald Trump said to JD Vance,
"all you do is kiss my ass to get my support."
He was called an ass kisser by the former president.
Kissed his ass.
An ass kisser.
Kissed his ass.
NARRATOR: Tim Ryan doesn't kiss ass.
I don't kiss anyone's ass like him.
NARRATOR: He's never kissed, eaten,
or even looked at an ass.
So when you cast your ballot, think about Trump's ass
and who may or may not be kissing it.
