Our guest tonight is one of everybody's favorites. Melissa McCarthy is here everybody's favorites. Melissa McCarthy is here everybody.

So exciting. She's getting Oscar Buzz for her new movie called Can You Ever Forgive Me? So we'll be talking about that. But first let's catch up on some of today's headlines. Climate change. Sometimes it feels so hopeless. All you want to do is get drunk and forget about it. Well, sadly, that won't be an option because of climate change. USA Today reports on a study that says global warming could threaten the world's beer supply. Researchers from UC Irvine and other institutions say the production of barley is likely to drop substantially because of droughts and extreme heat. Barley is a key ingredient in beer. That means average beer prices, get this, could double. Oh man, they're trying so hard to get people to care about to care to care to care to care to care to care to care to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the their tho tho tho their their tho th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. their, their, their, their, their. their, their. their. their. their. their, their, their. their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, thi. the. to the. to to the. to the. to. to. te. te. te. te. te. the. the. the. their, beer prices, get this, could double.

Oh man, they're trying so hard to get people to care about climate change, right? No, because if you tell Americans in 10 years the Marshall Islands will be underwater, no one cares, but tell them Corona will cost more, now they're marching in the streets, come on! In fact, all those anti-environmental laws Trump is trying to pass. Let's see how his new Supreme Court justice feels about that now, yeah? Yeah, what double the price? Double the price? And I'm not gonna lie, I like this new approach. I think climate change is so big that what scientists need to do is they should find out things that people really care about, you know? So like you should go like rising temperatures are gonna block Wi-fi signals, right? Or you go like, th, th, th, th, th, thi, thi, thi, thi, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, their, their, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their? their, their, their? their, their, their? their, their, their? their? their? their? their? their? their? their? their? their? their? their? their? their? their? their? their their their tri-s, double, double, double, double, double, their-d. their-d. their? their? their? their? their? thes that people really care about, you know? So like you should go like, rising temperatures are going to block Wi-Fi signals, right?

Or you go like, oh, rising temperatures are going to make men's erections softer. Yeah, every man will go solar real quick. We'll be like, yeah, no more cold, no more cold. In other news, anyone who knows me, knows that I'm crazy about budgets. Yeah, if you find me at a th. If th. If th. If I, th. th. th. th. th. thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi. Or, or, or, or, or, or, or, or, or, or, or, or, or, or, or, or, or, or, or, or, or, or, or, or, or, or, or, or, or, or, or, or, or, or, or, or, or, or, or, or, or, or, or, or, or, or, or, or, or, or, or, or, or, or, or, or, or, or, or, or, th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. thi. the the the thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. the thi. the the the thi. the the thi. the thr. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. Best believe we're talking federal expenditures for that fiscal year, which is probably why you won't find me at a party. So you know I was turned when I heard today's news. The federal budget deficit hit its highest level in six years in the 2018 fiscal year when it surged to seven hundred seventy nine billion dollars. Now that's a one hundred 13 billion dollar increase from the previous 12 months. lower federal tax revenue and higher government to to to to to to to to to to to to to to spend spend spend spend spend spend spend spend to find to find to find to find to find to find to find to find to find to find to find to find to find to find to find to find to find to find to find to find to find to find to find me to find me to find me to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the billion increase from the previous 12 months.

Lower federal tax revenue and higher government spending under President Trump contributed to the budget shortfall. The Treasury Department expects the deficit to top $1 trillion in the 2019 fiscal year. Yeah! We did it! They said it couldn't be done, but we did it. A trillion dollar deficit. This is what happens when you open a check cashing place in the capital. That's what happens. Like America's in so much debts at this point. I'm waiting for China to pull up and just tow one of the states away.

Just gonna be like, yeah, you didn't pay, we're repowing this man. But this is seriously bad news for Trump and the government government. thape thape thuuke. thuke. thuke. thuance. thuance. thu. thi. thi. to to thi. thi. thi. to to to to thi. to have to have to have to have to have to to to thi. to thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. to to to to to thi. to toeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee. thi. thi. thi.'re repowing this man. But this is seriously bad news for Trump and the government. They're gonna have to come up with ways to fix their finances. Like instead of a wall they can only afford to put an ADT sign at the border. All right that's it for the headlines let's move on to our main story. Saudi Arabia for years they've been known as the super conservative where women can't drive gay people get flogged. And their. their. their. their. their. their. 't drive, gay people get flogged, and thieves have their hands chopped off. Now, for the thieves, they can't say they weren't warned. I mean, Saudi Arabia literally has a sword on their flag, so you know.

Yeah, they're owning that shit. It would be like if the NFL made its logo a sad brain. Yeah, in a the the the the the the their their their their their, you, you, their, their, their, their, their, their, th. Yeah, th. Yeah, th. Yeah, th. thi. thathea, that. that. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. the. the. thi. the. the. the. t. t. t. tea. tea. tea. tea. tea. tea. tea. tea. tea. tea. tea. tea. tea. their honesty. But last year, Saudi Arabia got a new leader, Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman, or MBS for short. Many people were hoping that he would transform Saudi Arabia into a more progressive nation. And on the surface, it seemed like Saudi Arabia was changing. But then, this happened. Now to the mysterious disappearance that has prompted an outcry around the world.

This is the last time Saudi journalist and Washington Post-Columnist Jamal Koshoggi was seen alive, entering the Saudi consulate in Istanbul last week. What happened next is a mystery. Kishoggi, a vocal critic of Saudi Arabia's crown prince, Mohammed bin Salman, told the BBC three days before he went missing. He knew he'd made powerful enemies. So, a Washington Post journalist known for criticizing the Saudi government was seen entering the Saudi consulates,

and then he was never, ever seen again. Now, I'm not a detective, but come on. Yeah. And even though it seems pretty obvious to everyone what happened here, the Saudi government claimed that Koshoggi left its consulates in one piece, right? But then they say he left through the back door, and there's no footage of him leaving because their cameras don't store footage. Which sounds like a crazy excuse to me,

because what kind of security cameras don't store footage? It's just like, well, you see, our system was designed by Snapchat. Yes, the picture goes away very quickly. Not useful, but the puppy filter. Adorable, adorable, really wonderful. So according to the Saudi government, this journalist is not dead. He's just hanging out in Malaysia with Tupac. But the Turkish government has come out and they're calling BS. Turkish officials are now painting a very grizzly plot. They say that 15 assassins, effectively, Saudi officials arrived on two chartered

planes. They killed him within two hours of his arrival. They took the body out in a convoy of vehicles, including a black van. Holy shit. Fifteen assassins, private planes and a black van. Like, this doesn't sound like real life. It sounds like the opening of a James Bond movie, you know? Like all that's missing is Idris Albert chasing them in a helicopter And yes, I just said Idris Alba will be the next James Bond if you say it will happen people. It's called the secret It's called the secret So so it's looking more and more like Saudi Arabia had Koshoggi killed and this isn't just a big deal for Turkey and Saudi Arabia. This is an American problem too, because Koshoggi is an American resident who writes for

the Washington Post. And it would be hard for America to continue being allies with a country that assassinates journalists. So President Trump was asked to step in and get to the bottom of what happened. I just spoke with the King of Saudi Arabia, who denies any knowledge of what took place. The King firmly denied any knowledge of it. He didn't really know, maybe, I don't want to get into his mind, but it sounded to me like maybe these could have been rogue killers.

Who knows? We're going to try getting to the bottom of it very soon, but his was a flat denial. Wait, what? Did you just say it could be rogue killers? Like, how does Trump always find a way to introduce random suspects into the most obvious crimes? Because you realize he does this every time, right?

Like now they're like, is the Saudis in the cars? Maybe it was ro-kiahah. their. their. their. they's, th. th. th. they's. th. th. th. th. they's. th. th. thi. thi. thi. thi. they's. they's. they's. they's. they's. they're they're thi. thi. they're they're they're they're they're they're they're. they're. they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're th th th th th th th th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. thi. thi. th to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to too too too too too th th cons, like, maybe it's rogue killers before it was like Russia and he's like, maybe it was Russia or maybe the hacking was a 400-pound guy in a basement. Like, I would hate to play a clue with Trump. It would be so frustrating. He'd be like, could it be in Colonel Mustard, or maybe it was the shoe from Monopoly folks. We don't know. Nobody knows. Either way, case closed. And one of the reasons President Trump might be so eager to believe the Saudi Arabians

is because they've promised him that they'll buy over $100 billion in US weapons. So this is a relationship both sides want to maintain, which is why Saudi Arabia is preparing to release their latest excuse. Saudi Arabia is getting ready to change its story about the disappearance of a Washington Post columnist in Turkey. The Saudis are now willing to say that Koshoggi was captured that that that that that that th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th they they they they they they they'll they'll they'll they'll they'll they'll they'll they'll they'll they'll they'll they'll they'll they'll they'll they'll they'll they'll they'll they'll they'll they'll they'll they'll they'll they'll they'll they'll they'll they'll they'll they'll they'll they'll they'll they'll they'll they'll they'll they'll they'll they'll they'll its story about the disappearance of a Washington Post columnist in Turkey. The Saudis are now willing to say that Koshoggi was captured inside their consulate in Istanbul and then died during his interrogation. Saudi leaders are preparing to admit to the accidental killing of Jamal Hashoggi, despite denying

that they harmed him or even knew of his whereabouts since his disappearance. OK now, I don't know whether to be horrified or impressed. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. the. to. the. the. the. the. the. the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the. K. K. K, the. K. K. K. K. K. K. K. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. they. they. the the the t. t. te. tt ttttttttttttoge.a.a.a.a.a.a.a.a.a.a.a.a.a.a.a.a. toge. t t t t t t t t they harmed him or even knew of his whereabouts since his disappearance. Okay, now I don't know whether to be horrified or impressed. Because this is diabolical. The Saudi government is testing their excuse before officially using it. That's something I've never seen in my life. They're like, we never saw this man. But what would you say if we said we did see him? But we killed him by mistake, huh? Well, then you would be punished. Well, in that case, we never saw him.

For more on Saudi Arabia's evolving story, we turn to our own Michael Costa, everybody. Michael, Michael, I'm sorry, man. Every day, every day, this story gets more and more confusing. Yeah, well, maybe for you, Trevor, but I'm a bit of an expert on Saudi Arabia. See, I saw two-thirds of Aladdin on Broadway, then the asshole usher asked me if I had a ticket. But the point, Trevor, is people shouldn't be offended that Saudi Arabia is testing their excuse, Americans should be honored. But why, Michael? I mean, if they're testing excuses,

it clearly means that they're lying. Trevor, countries lie to us all the time. You really think there's a Finland? Grow up. OK? So many countries lie to us, but Saudi Arabia respects us enough to find a lie that works for both of us. It's fibbed for our pleasure, if you will thuuuuuuuuuuuu. thus. thus. thus. thus. thus. thus. thus. thus. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. to to to to to to to thi. to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to that that that that th. th. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. the t. t. t. tha thae. te. te. te. tea. tea. tea. tea. tea. tea. tea. thau. tha if you will. Okay, but why would America want to believe a story if it's obviously a lie? Because that way it saves our relationship.

I mean, if we found out that our Middle Eastern besty murdered a journalist, we might have to stop selling them billions of dollars in arms. But if we both decide to agree that he fell in a volcano inside the consulate, well then, bring your punch card, Saudi Arabia, because it's by nine missiles, get the tenth one free. No, Michael, look, I don't know if I agree. No matter how good a lie sounds, I don't think people can accept it when they know it's a lie. Do you really think this can work? Oh, it works. Trevor. I've already started using. Like last week and I told my nephew I would take him I'm them them them them. them. the the the to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to told. told. told. told. I'm, told. told. told. told, too, I'm, the told. too, too, too, too, too, too, too, the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the. the. the. the. thea. thea. thea. te. te. te. te. te. te. today. te. today. today. the. him fishing, but I never showed up. Now, obviously, I'm not gonna tell him

I spent our fishing Sunday getting tested for HPV. Positive, by the way. So, instead of coming up with my own lie, I went the Saudi way and I let him pick my lie. I said, Billy, I'm considering telling you that my asshole boss is making me work weekends, or I'm considering telling telling telling you telling you telling you tel tel thing thing thing thing that thing that thi thi thi thi thi thi thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, I'm thi, I'm thi, I'm thi, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I, I, I, I, I, I, the the the the the the the the the the the the the the thea, thea, thea, thea, thea, thea, thea, thea, thea, thea, thea, thea, thea, thea, thea, thea, thea, t I'm considering telling you that I die. Do any of these work, Billy? And that made Billy feel more respected? Yes, I think. The important thing is he stopped calling me. Michael Costa everyone, we'll be right back. Hey everybody, John Stewart here. I am here to tell you about my new podcast.

My guest tonight is an Oscar-nominated Emmy award-winning actor and comedian who is starring in the new film Can You Ever Forgive Me. Please welcome Melissa McCarthy. Yes! Yes! Yes! Yes, guys! Yes, guys! Yes, guys! Yes! Yes! I've never done this before.

Yes! Every single time I see you, there is a joy that fills my buddy that I cannot control. Thank you so much for being on the show. Wow, thanks. This is really exciting for so many reasons. One, because everybody loves you. You're one one the funniest the funniest the funniest the funniest the funniest the funniest the funniest the show. Wow, thanks. This is really exciting for so many reasons. One, because everybody loves you. You're one of the funniest human beings in existence. And genuinely, this film that you are in is getting Oscar Buzz and I think for all the

right reasons. You are phenomenal in this movie. And you're playing a character you've never played before. No, I'm playing. L Israel is the real person. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. thi. th. th. thi. I. I. I. I thi. I thi. I thi. I thi. I th. I's, th. I's, th. I's thi. I'm thi. I'm th. I'm th. I'm, th.

It's th. It's th. It's th. It's th.................................................... No, I'm playing. Lee Israel is the main character. She is a real person, or was a real person. She's a difficult, prickly, challenging writer, who suddenly was told she was obsolete and was no longer allowed to write, kind of got backed into a corner and started forging and impersonating literary letters of like just great so Dorothy

Parker, Noel Coward and then was caught by the FBI. So no it's the first time with her but I really kind of loved her. That's an interesting idea because when you watch this character and when you watch this movie I was the whole movie I was waiting to like her I'm gonna like her. I'm gonna like this character and then I was like I kind of hate her and I was like, oh I'm gonna like her. It's Ms. McCarthy. I'm gonna like this character. And then I kind of hate her. And then I, and then I, then it started changing again. Then I was like, no, she's hustling. Like it was a really different role to see a person play because it's weird to play somebody who's not likeable and yet liked by some.

I know, well, I felt, I had the same feeling because about a quarter of the way into the first time I read the script, I was like, I kind of like her. What did you like about it? But then I thought about it. it for a second and I was like, well why? And I couldn't figure out there's nothing tangible she had done to make me like her. She was difficult. Like every story about her involves like, oh, and then Lee was Lee and made it terrible

for all of us and then she'd say something, you know, witty and sarcastic and walk away. And like somehow people were a very small amount of people, but we're friends with her, but I don't know. I think it was just the thought of, these are her defense mechanisms and what does everybody do to kind of protect themselves? It was not in her best interest. I mean, we had a, one of our producers, Anne Carey always tells a story that,

you know, she spent 10 years trying to take Lee's memoir, which is the film, films based on to a film and that she would meet her out for dinner. Lee was always there early and then it wouldn't be until dinner was over. They would get up, walk away really quickly and then she'd realized that she'd been sitting there for while having quite a few drinks putting it on her bill. And when dinner was over she was like, bye and like took off, which is terrible, which is terrible but then you kind of, you're kind of like it's great. I don't know, I don't know what that says about me, but I'm like, oh, I kind of love her. I think it says that you are a grifter,

that's what it says. Yes. Deep down inside you, there is a Nigerian prince. That's what it means. Yes. That's what it means. story and maybe it was just me. I found myself watching a story about a woman who was working through a really hard time. It's set to New York in the 1990s and it's really beautifully like completely set to New York. And you have this this this woman who is described by many people as prickly or

or or you know like hard or but when you see like a lot of male characters play the same kind of thing people would just be like oh driven or like he he won't this he he he he he he he he he he th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th. th. th. th. th. th. the the the the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. It's th. It's th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th is th. th is th is th. the to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to the the of thing. People would just be like, oh, driven or like, you know, he won't back down. Exactly, he won't back down. His convictions. Right. And then she was just like, oh, she's unbearable. Like, well, I think there's a, you know, I think that happens all the time. Right.

I mean, it's almost cliche that it's, it's like, it's like, it's like, it's like, it's like, it's like, it's like, it's like, it's like, it's like, it's like, it's like, it's like, it's like, so many, so many, so many, the, unlikable? I'm like, because we're all unlikable at times. I mean, everybody, I think all the people you love, you love because of their weird eccentricities and their quirks and their ticks and we all have them. So to try to play someone without all of those things, they wouldn't know how to do it. I know you're doing more dramatic roles now and I hope you don't stop comedies because I mean that's where I love you as well. But one thing you've done that I found really impressive is in Hollywood you have always fought. Like you fought for yourself, you fought for what you believe you deserve and rightfully so. But you were like one

of the first actors who I saw come out and say like, hey, I don't care if I'm a woman, I want my money. And you have though, unashamedly and deserving me. And you are now one of the top earning actors in Hollywood because of that. Like you, why was that, I mean, other the money itself, why was that so important? I think it's, I mean, I, I don't know, my husband always says like, fists of justice. I just, I think, I th th th th th th, I th, I th, I th, I th, I th, I th, I th, I th, I th, I thin, I thin, I thin, I thin, I thin, I thin, I thin, I thin, I thin, I thin, I thin, I have thin, I have, I have, I have, I have, I have, I have, I have, I have, I have, I have, I have, I have, I have, I have, I have, I have, I have, I have, I have, I have, I have, I have, I have, I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I mean, I th. I, I, I, I mean, I, I, I, I, I, th. I mean, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, that so important? I think it's, I mean, I, I don't know, my husband always says like, fists of justice. I just, I think if everybody's getting two dollars and everybody's getting the same types of parts and everybody's, I don't think that people can't have different things, but I just think if you're doing, if you're doing the same, you know, there should be the same work and benefit to everything just as I used to read things all the time and just wonder where's

the part? Where's the part? Like why is the guy so interesting? Why is the guy so flawed and complicated? And then why is the woman just going, John, Tom? These are like, here's like here's like six years of auditions for me. Bob, Bill, Tom, and I just, I was like, I was like, I'm not skilled enough to just keep saying people's names in a kind of board over it fashion. But you do it really well, I'm not gonna lie. Like I, like I would hire you right now. I'm like, if you were saying, I'll be like, yeah, I'm gonna hire you. This is really just a plug for my new show John Jim and Bill Tom. You'll love it it it's just it's that that was the whole show right but but you really you've really been all about that

is like growing the roles I mean you're somebody who's not ask for what you want right and you've started creating what you want as well which I've which I've really appreciated as well, because you're part of creating the movies, writing the movies with your husband. It's the fun of it. Right. For me, it's the fun of it. And the really great thing was that we ended up, one, we can work together. I mean, I met my husband Ben at the Groundlinx Theater in LA,

and we met writing and performing. kind of grew to be crazy, kind of. I shouldn't have qualified it with. I kind of like him. I like you a lot, honey. That was the one time I couldn't find the camera. It still seems insincere. No, it's like, you know, that's how we met. And that was like the joy of it and doing it ourselves, like, I want to be part of it. I want, I want the workload from it. I want the fun of it. I want the challenge. I want the nerves.

I want everything. I think the whole thing is, is part of the joy of what, you know, we get to do. Right, it truly was a joy watching you in this film as well.

You know, because there's like you said, there's so many layers to people that we don't know. There's so many shells that people have. What is the one thing you hope people don't miss about your character?

I think there's so many people that we pass and that almost become invisible to us and everybody at some point needs to be seen. Even if it's for a second, if it's for a second on the street where you actually can make eye

contact with someone and that person feels like I am here, someone saw me, that will snowball and then they'll look at somebody else. And we tend to all be so concentrated on our phones and devices that I'm not. I'm a dinosaur that like I can't, I don't email, I don't do any of that. I'm, which frustrates many people. Right.

But since I'm not on my device, I usually am sitting in a room watching people all do this. And no one's looking at each other. I'm like, oh my god, you have to connect with people. And Lee made me very much realize how lonely to thrown. And when she meets Jack, played by Richard E. Grant, who's tremendous in the film. They're very unlikely friends, but they both just needed somebody to see, to see them. That's so beautiful.
