Let's jump straight into today's headlines. All right, I don't even need to tell you this, but the biggest news of the day has been about Twitter. A fun place to share jokes and find out which celebrities are dead. Now, you may remember, last week, Elon Musk became Twitter's largest shareholder by buying 10% of their stock, which gives him majority control of Denzel expressing relief.
Starting point is 00:01:57 Well, now, Elon Musk has decided he doesn't want 10% of Twitter. No, he wants 100% of Twitter. Yeah, because he has plans to make it the best social media site in the world. Tesla CEO Elon Musk is offering to buy Twitter. All of the shares he does not currently own for $43.4 billion in cash. He also says he wants to take the company private. Musk writing a letter to Twitter chair, Brett Taylor, saying,
Starting point is 00:02:25 quote, Twitter has extraordinary potential, I will unlock it. The top priority I would have is eliminating the spam and scam bots and the bot armies that are in Twitter. It'd make the product much worse. Oh shit, it's happening people! Elon Musk is attempting a hostile takeover of Twitter. He's offering $43 billion all cash, take it or leave it. Yeah, that was his offer. His actual law, $43 billion all cash, take it or leave it.
Starting point is 00:03:00 Which you've got to admit is a very Indian uncle way to negotiate. You know? Yeah, Indian uncles always think if they put cash at the end of the offer, then you can't refuse. You know? It's like, Trevor, I'll give you $47 for your car. What? No, cash. No, it's a car. Now, because Elon Musk is Elon Musk, he didn't just make a normal offer, no. He offered to pay $54.20 per share.
Starting point is 00:03:29 Yeah, not $54 exactly, no. $50, $4.20. And that's how you know that you're too rich. When you're spending an extra million dollars, just to slip a weed joke in to your takeover of it. And he didn't even have to waste that extra money. We already knew he was high when he said he would, quote, unlock Twitter's full potential, man. Which by the way, am I the only person who got freaked out by that part where he said that?
Starting point is 00:03:56 He says he wants to unlock Twitter's full potential. I thought Twitter was unlocked. No, like is there a the their the? Are there parts of Twitter that are still shut down? Well, maybe let's keep them like that. Yeah, never once have I logged on to Twitter and been like, man, I just wish this place would let loose. People rarely hold back on here, all nuanced and shit. But that's the thing with Elon Musk. Nobody knows what he's going to do. He's super smart, definitely. But he admits that he also loves dumb jokes.
Starting point is 00:04:28 So we don't know how this could turn out. This could turn Twitter into the best version of itself. Or he could just rename Tweets Farts and retweets refarts. The United Nations today re-farting a fart from President Biden. Many fart is online saying that this fart went too far. Moving on to Duffer. Now, I know a lot of people don't like Elon Musk, but I will admit some of the suggestions that he had for Twitter are not that bad. All right, he wants an edit button.
Starting point is 00:05:01 I like that. All right, he wants to make the algorithm more transparent so we know why things are trending or why tweets go places. I like that. And he wants to get rid of bots and scams, which I love. I hate the bots on Twitter. Do you know how many hours I've wasted talking to Oprah 2467 Crypto? Only to find out later that it wasn't really Oprah Oprah. I told to to to find to find to find to find to find to find to find to find to find to find to find to find th o o o o' th o' th o' th o' th o' th o' tho o' tho o' tho o' tho o' tho o' tho o' thi thi thi thi tho o' tho o' thoosk-o tho tho thi o' thi thi tho tho. tho. tho. tho. tho. tho. tho. tho tho tho tho tho tho tho tho tho thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi theeats, theats, theats, theats, thi theats, thii thiii thi thi thi thi thi thi th really Oprah. I told her my deepest secrets, and I gave her money. I mean, yeah, in hindsight, it was weird that Oprah was asking me for money, but she seemed so real. And that would catch anyone, guys. And this is also a risky business move, because if you kick all the bots off
Starting point is 00:05:37 of Twitter, that's like 99% of the platform, right? Who's going to be left, huh? Yeah, it's like it's like, it's like, it's like, it's that's that's that's th, it's that's that's th, it's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's th, that's that's that's th. that's that's that's to be to be to be to be that's to be to be to be to be to be to be that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be th. th. th. thii. thi. thi. the. theananneneneneneneneneneneed. theanananananneed. toooomorrow tooomorrow tooomorrow tooomorrow tooe, it's like trying to ban all sex criminals from Hollywood. You're just gonna be left with Paul Rudd and Baby Yoda. That's gonna be it. Sorry, what's that? Baby Yoda did what? Sorry, guys, it's just Paul Rudd now. That's all that's left. All right, but let's move on from Twitter to another place where nobody gets along and nothing gets done. The US Senate. For decades now, one of the most prestigious members of the Senate
Starting point is 00:06:07 has been Diane Feinstein, Democrat from California, right? She's been a leading voice on environmental issues and LGBTQ rights, and she was the first woman ever to chair the Intelligence Committee, which was a big deal. But recently, some of her colleagues have been voicing concern about whether the senator still has the capacity to do her job. And, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and at, and at, and at, and at, and at, and at, and at, and at, and at, and at, and at, and at, and at, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, 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, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, they, they na, theyn, theyn, soa, their, their, their,a, soa, their, their, their, their, their,icing concern about whether the senator still has the capacity to do her job. And at 88, they're wondering if it's time for the senator to step down.
Starting point is 00:06:31 Some members of Congress are reportedly expressing concerns about Senator Dianne Feinstein's memory. Now the San Francisco Chronicle reports it spoke to four U.S. senators, three of whom who are Democrats, a California Democratic member of Congress, and several former Feinstein staffers. All of them say her memory appears to be getting worse. Now, the Chronicle says one of them even started talking to other people in Congress to see if they could convince her to resign.
Starting point is 00:06:56 An unnamed Democrat in Congress, who has worked with the senator for 15 years, had to reintroduce themselves several times during a recent policy discussion. Feinstein also allegedly repeated several questions during that encounter. Phoof, right, this is a tough one. It really is. I mean, on the one hand, you don't want to expel Senator Feinstein just because she's old, right? But on the other hand, if she is losing her faculties, you can't have have her the their a to have her know, this, like, this reminded me of my grandfather, right? He used to babysit me when I was younger,
Starting point is 00:07:31 which was fine, which was fine, until I realized that his mind was slipping, and I could trick him. Yeah, like one day I tricked him into spending all the family's grocery money on tamagochies instead of food. And that night when my mom got home, she saw there was no food. And she made me eat my grandfather. No, I'm joking. I'm joking. I'm joking. She just beat the shit out of me, that's all. But you know what? I'm glad it happened. Yeah, because it inspired me to work hard so I could have made enough money to buy my own tamagocchi's. And look at me now, mom, a grown man with 10,000 tomatoes! I did it, mom.
Starting point is 00:08:09 You can't touch me. Yeah, how you like me now? By the way, if anyone wants 10, thousand tom now, because of the story, should there be an age limit? Right? Because there's already a minimum age. So people are saying there should be a maximum age. I think if you're not going to have a maximum age, then it's only fair that you get rid of the minimum. You know? Yeah. Because right now you have to be 30 years old to sounds ridiculous, but think about a Senator baby isn't fleeing to Cancun during a power failure Senator baby
Starting point is 00:08:51 Is responsible senator baby isn't cheering on insurrectionists. No senator baby wants one thing and one thing alone Baba. And you might not know what Baba is? But do you know what Rand Paul is talking about 90% of the time? I rest my case. But do you realize the average age of the Senate is 64. Average age. And I'm not saying that they can't do their job. I'm just saying how invested are you in the future of the planet if you'll be leaving soon, you know? No, I, hey, I know how I treat the urinal at Disney World. That's not my house. And just to be clear, just so to be clear, people like, oh, it's ages. No, look, I'm not saying
Starting point is 00:09:36 that being younger guarantees your brain works, okay? Like, Look at Madison Corthon. He's 26. He's having to 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, thi's thi's thi's thi, th. th. thi's not thin's not thin' thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi. thi. 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. thee. tooooooooooooooooooooooooooo. toe. toe. thean. thean. thean. the.'s 26. He's having all these delusions of like cocaine and orgies in Congress, which you know isn't a real thing. People in Congress aren't having orgies. If they were, they'd probably be terrible. I respectfully remind the gentlelady from Minnesota that she's out of order. The gentleman from Montana was supposed to go second. And as for me, I yielded the remainder of my time. I got a lot more excited than I thought.
Starting point is 00:10:09 A lot more. All right. Let's move on to some sports news. It is NBA playoff season, that magical time of the year when the league's best players battle it out for the championship and the Knicks go on their annual fishing trip. Now there's always a lot of drama in the NBA playoffs, but last night one player got a little too dramatic. The Charlotte Hornets had a rough night at Atlanta.
Starting point is 00:10:39 Charlie getting frustrated in the fourth quarter, Miles Bridges gets ejected, and after a fan yells at him on the way out, he threw his mouth guard hitting a girl in the stands. After the game Bridges called his actions unacceptable and went on Twitter to see if he could contact that young lady to make up for what he did. I was upset about a call. I was aiming for the guy that was screaming at me and it, you know, I'm saying, it hit a little girl. So that's definitely unacceptable on my part, and I take, you know, full responsibility.
Starting point is 00:11:06 Okay, all right, first of all, good on Miles Bridges for taking responsibility, you know, for throwing his mouthguard into the crowd. I like that he said, he's like, look, man, I shouldn't have done that. I will also say this, if you're a basketball player who's who that, Can't prove the heckless quites. That's your only job. And to be fair, that girl played horrible defense. But still, I'm not blaming her.
Starting point is 00:11:30 I'm not blaming her. Now, you know, if you follow sports, you may have noticed that this feels like it's a bit of a trend recently. You know, fans antagonizing the players, or players losing their shit with the crowd. Like a few days ago, Carrie Irving, he got in the face of a fan who shouted something at him. But then it turned out that he got angry at the wrong fan. Yeah, and then in the Premier League, Christiano Rinaldo slapped a kid's phone out of his hand because he was injured and the kid was filming and then he was frustrated, and he said sorry afterwards, but still, people, like, I don't know know, th..... and athletes and fans are angry, but it does seem like everyone needs to chill. Okay?
Starting point is 00:12:10 Yeah, if you're a professional athlete, you have to accept that part of your job is getting yelled at by strangers. It's part of the job. All right, it just comes with the territory. Certain jobs do. It's the same way strippers know people are going to be throwing money at them. Yeah. If you are a stripper and you have a fear of flying objects, you're in the wrong job, you know? If you're like, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, just deposit it into my account. That's not how this works. Athletes have to learn to ignore it. If you don't want to once been at the dentist's office, just like,
Starting point is 00:12:45 boo! Yo, this dude sucks at scraping my gums. Boo! You're not even a real doctor! But I will say this, the fans also need a chill. Remember, athletes are human beings, all right? Have some respect, have some compassion. Because a lot of the fans right now are filming thaaaaugheeatha, thiiiii. their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, thi, thi, their, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, th. th. th. th. th. th. thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. There, th. There, thi, thi, thi, thi. There, thi. There, thi. There, the, the. And, thean, thean, thean thean, thean, thean, thean, thean, thean, thean, thean, th compassion. Because a lot of the fans right now are filming themselves saying crazy shit to athletes because they know if they get a reaction, they're going to go viral.
Starting point is 00:13:11 Like last month, one dude heckled a player on the Portland Trailblazers by talking shit about his grandmother who had recently died of COVID. Exactly. Guys, I'm sorry. If you're looking for heckling material in the obituaries, that's taking thiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiol-aa, thiol-a, thiol-a, thiol-a, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, too-s, too-s, too-s, too-s, too-s, too-s, to say to say to say to say to say to say to say to say to say to say to say to say to say to say too, too, too, too, too, too, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, th sorry, if you're looking for heckling material in the obituaries, that's taking things too far. Say something about the game and move on. That's a shitty thing to do. Like, you don't have a professional basketball game. It's supposed to be fun. Why are you so angry? There's people in the stands all time.
Starting point is 00:13:38 This is fun. I almost feel like NBA games need to add like a court-side therapist for the fans. Yeah, I guess when I screamed that LeBron sucks donkey balls, I was... I was really angry at my dad for never hugging me. I... Lebron reminds me of my dad. He left to go to another city and he pretended like it was normal and that's why I hate LaRod. Oh, no.
Starting point is 00:14:08 So, my advice would be for everyone to take the temperature down just a notch and remember that the point of going to a game isn't to try and get a professional athlete to beat the shit out of you, okay? the point of going to the game is to bribe your kids with snacks. the the the the th. th, the th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, their, th, th, th, their, their, th. th. th. thi, their, thi, their, their, they's, thi. thi, they's, they, they, they, the that the point of going to a game isn't to try and get a professional athlete to beat the shit out of you okay? The point of going to the game is to bribe your kids with snacks so they pick you in the custody battle. Remember what it's about. It's about love. All right, finally let's talk about homelessness. It is a big problem in America and not everyone is offering helpful solutions. For instance in Tennessee, in Tennessee, the the, in the, in the, in the, in the, in the the, in the, in the ten, in ten, in ten, in Tennessee, in ten, in Tennessee, in Tennessee, in Tennessee, in Tennessee, in ten, ten, ten, te, te, te, te, te, te, te, te, te, 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, to bea, to bea, to bea, to bea, to bea, the, to bea, their the, their the, the, te, te, te, teanuu.eanu.eanu.eanu.eanu.eanu.eanu.eanu.eanu. teanu. tea, te, te,, yesterday, the state Senate passed a bill that would make it a crime to sleep under bridges. Yeah, which I guess could save lives given the states of infrastructure in this country, but I don't think that's what they were going for.
Starting point is 00:14:58 They just don't want to have to look at homeless people anymore, so they made it a crime. But here's my question, whenever they do this, what are the homeless people anymore so they made it a crime. But here's my question, whenever they do this, what are the homeless people supposed to do? Right? When you make it a crime, like what do you think's going to happen? You think they're going to be like, well, if sleeping under this bridge is illegal, I guess I'll finally buy that townhouse I've been looking at? Eh, it was all about my options. Because honestly, these policies are pretty typical of the approach to homelessness in many parts of the country.
Starting point is 00:15:26 And now, the reason that people are talking about this bill in particular, this one, is because of this really inspirational story that one Republican told during the debate. Mr. Speaker, I haven't given you all a history lesson in a while, and I want to give you a little history on homelessness. 19 and 10, Hitler decided to live on the homeless their their their their their their, to, to, to, to, th, to, th, th, to, th, th, to, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, thiioleole, thi, thi, thiolioliolioloome, thoome, thoome, thoom, thi, thi, is, is, is, is, is, is, is, is, is, is, is, is, is, is, is, is, is, is, is, is, is, is, is, is, is, is, is, is, is, is, is, is, is, is, is, is, is, is, is, is, is, is, is a thiiiiiiiiii. 19 and 10, Hitler decided to live on the streets for a while. So for two years, Hitler lived on the streets and practiced his oratory and his body language and how to connect with the masses and then went on to lead a life that's got him in to take. Yeah, that's right, folks.
Starting point is 00:16:09 Hitler was homeless and it made him a better person, man. Yes, don't despair, homeless people, if you really apply yourself, one day you too could do genocide. Like, just checking the Hitler in this inspiring story. Is this Adolf Hitler? Yeah? Like, there isn't another Hitler somewhere in history who was an astronaut or something, right? You know, it's just like, hey, I'm Hitler.
Starting point is 00:16:32 What? Yeah, I'm the Olympic skater, Steve Hitler. Oh, shit. You should just go by Steve, man. You realize comparing homeless people to the worst person in history is definitely not going to help, their, to help, to help, 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, thii, thi, their, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, 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, thi.. And, thi. And, thi.a, thiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiia, thiiiiii?a, their, their, their, their, the worst person in history is definitely not going to help them, right? Because who's going to want to help homeless people now? This is going to be people like, oh no, I'm not giving you money. You could become the future of Hitler.
Starting point is 00:16:53 And by the way, who even knew that Hitler was homeless? Did you guys know that? I didn't know this? I don't know about you, but it creeps me out when th. th. th.. Yeah, there's something really disturbing about anyone who's like, did you know Hitler's favorite fruit was the mango? I'm just, I'm just gonna go over here now. It's a weird thing. All right, that's it for the headlines, which means it's time for us to check in
Starting point is 00:17:21 on this weekend's weather forecast with our very own Desi Leic everybody. Good to see you, Desi, how you're doing? Great. Good to see you, Desi, how you're doing? Great, good to see you. We're back with our audience. Yeah. Great. Good day. It's a good day. Also, you'll like this. I set up a booby trap in my building to catch whoever's been stealing my neighbor's paper before I could steal it.
Starting point is 00:17:51 So. Huh, that's a good thing for a bad thing. Oh, yeah. We'll get him. We'll get him. Or her. What's going on? God, that story, how crazy. Did that guy actually use Hitler as an inspiration story? Right?
Starting point is 00:18:09 Are we doing that now? Are we doing like, hashtag Hitler goals? I mean, it's bad enough. Like, girl boss culture already makes me feel so unaccomplished. Now I got to live up to Hitler? Well, I don't think you have to. No, it's like like too much pressure, man. It's not cool.
Starting point is 00:18:26 Although I will say if it works, I will use that tactic to get my kid to finish as dinner. Yeah. Do you know who would eat all this broccoli? Hitler? If he can do it, so can you. That's going to be a weird thing to teach your kid, I think. Yeah. Also that mouth guard thing? What the hell? Trevor, have you ever been hit in the head with the mouth guard? I actually have once. Yeah. Me too. You have? Yeah, like every day in third grade. And fourth, and fifth and six. Yeah, it was tough.

We'll be right back with Jordan Clapper and the Republicans right after this. It's the weather. It's the weather.
Starting point is 00:20:46 Welcome to the David show. Recently, recently our very own Jordan Clapper traveled down to Florida to finger the pulse at the conservative political action conference. It led to some unexpected interactions and one very unexpected place. Every year, CPAC brings together all the brightest minds and salespeople in the conservative world. And with the world Karenian from Crisis to Crisistogether all the brightest minds and salespeople in the conservative
Starting point is 00:21:26 world. And with the world careening from crisis to crisis, I've come to Orlando to find out where their movement is going and brace myself for what's to come. People are asking a question who the future of the Republican Party is. Trump is Trump. Trump is the Republican Party. CPAC is Trump. Donald J. Trump is the greatest president of. 100%. If you look at the Trump administration on paper as a report card, it was stellar. It just was. In what sense? The numbers? The economy? The economy. The economy. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:21:57 I'm talking about before the COVID economic collapse. We don't count the whole term. We can cherry pick numbers. the the the the the economy. the economy. the economy. the economy. the economy. the economy. the economy. the economy. the economy. the economy. the economy. the economy. the economy. the economy. the economy. tr. tr. tr. tr. tr. tr. tr. tr. tr. tr. tr. tr. tr. the the the the tr. the the the tr. tr. tr. tr. tr. tr. tr. tr. tr. tr. tr. tr. tr. tr. tr.

I. the. the whole term, we can cherry-pick numbers that make him look like a fantastic price vote. Why are you so obsessed with Trump? I like how he's funny, he's just funny and he's funny to you. The 2015 debate, he was like, lie in 10-year-old's sense of humor. He was like, lie in 10-yearthat's a 15 year old sense of humor. Exactly, but that is, I love that. So you want a 15 year old as president and you got one. 100%. Clearly this was still Trump's party but this trip wasn't about R&R. Is this what I think it is? It's a Trump sex swing or S&M. That's nice and then you get some, then it's like this. It's about the GOP p p p p p p p p p p p p p p the G their their their their their their their their their their their th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. thr-in' th. th. th. thi. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th.

It's about the GOP and their parties plan to tackle the issues that face America.
Starting point is 00:22:45 They want to destroy the neutral family. Who does? But the left, the Democratic Party, you can't use the words mother, father. Am I gonna get in trouble if I use the word mother or father? They'll try to correct you. talking point here. I don't think it should be indoctrinated into kids. Indoctrinated in what way? Indoctrinated in what way? Putting trans flags in elementary kids schools rooms because they're pretty colors. Those flags they offend you. They don't offend me. I think they cause problems for young people. To see a flag like that in their school. No, to have colors like that and then associating it to something else. What are the colors are the colors are the colors are the colors are their their their their their their their their their their their their their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. I. I. I. I'm. I'm. I'm. I'm. I's. I's. I's. I's. I's. I's. I's. I's. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I'm. I'm. I'm their. their. t. t. t. t. to. to. t. to. to. to. t. t. to. t. to. t. t. t. to. the t. toda. their school? No, to have colors like that, and then associating it to something else.
Starting point is 00:23:26 What are the colors? I actually don't even think I know the color. Neither do I. But they're pretty offensive. They're colorful, and kids like colors. But even though the theme of CPAC was the culture war, what about the war? Whose fault is what's happening in Ukraine right now? Well, of course, it's Biden's fault. He didn't do anything to protect that nation, to protect those people. When you look at what happened between Russia and Ukraine,
Starting point is 00:23:50 you have to point the finger at the leader of the United States of America. Of course, you have to. You have to be to be. Biden helped Ukraine told the the the the dealings that thridden that that that that that through strength. Peace through strengths. What do you think about Donald Trump when he called Vladimir Putin a genius? Was that him being tough? I think he has a way of playing with words? Yeah, definitely, like saying the opposite of what a patriot would say.
Starting point is 00:24:15 And then he gets the media riled up. He disregards his own intelligence community, and instead he kisses the ass of Vladimir Putin, but that's him just being smug. It's being a wise guy. He's being a wise guy. The maca crowds' obsessions were predictable. Is this a little much? But there was a new infatuation I was surprised to hear, because for the first time at CPAC, people were applauding another country.
Starting point is 00:24:37 Hungary's on the forefront. When you see people, like leaders in Hungary talking and speaking the way that Donald Trump did when he was in office. It inspires me. I think Hungary is a positive example about how being a confident conservative can really do wonderful things for a country. That's right, conservatives here we're looking for inspiration from Hungary, the central European country that's been steadily sliding away from democracy under its right-wing leader, Victor Orban.
Starting point is 00:25:03 Trump has endorsed Orban twice, and Tucker Carlson has done a week of shows and a special about Hungary. It's not my job to defend Hungary, only to learn from it as an American and try and hold up the lessons for us to emulate. ZPAC is doing a special event from Hungary in May, and there are even conservative speakers from Hungary, there in Orlando. God bless you all, God bless America, God bless Hungary, and of course,
Starting point is 00:25:26 let's go, Brandon. So I decided to pack a backpack full of rapid tests and Trevor's Amex card to finger the pulse, international style. I arrived in beautiful Budapest to find out how similar these two movements really are. What do you think about what's happening with Ukraine? What's happened there, it's not Putin's fault. If it's not Putin's fault, is it Biden's fault? You can put this question for Biden's son. How much million, trillion dollars invested in Ukraine? This makes me feel at home, I gotta say.
Starting point is 00:25:57 Yep. There is a lot here to unpack, and I did in my new half-hour special. Lock her up. I thought I heard Lock her up. If you want equality, hit the road, Jack. I think yes. I ask all the hard-hitting questions. What is Hungarian for Aeslicking? Shagnolo.
Starting point is 00:26:20 Shagnalo. Ashli, we have Shagnalo. Ashley, we have Shagnalo in America too. And I investigate the GOP's obsession with this barely democratic democracy. Only chance for us is to band together. It's like suicide squad. Did you see suicide squad? Yeah, of course I did. Is it like suicide squad? No. No. Shit. So the government knows all your contacts. And has access to all my messages. Tun in April 21st.
Starting point is 00:26:45 Ah, au bauble. Oh, I told you. Yeah. Hold on one second. You don't happen to know my wife's phone number, do you? you. Thank you so much for that, Jordan. I'm ready looking forward to it. All right, when we come back, New York's very own, Rosie Perez, is joining me like their it, to the Daily Show.
Starting point is 00:27:32 My guest tonight is Oscar and Emmy Award nominated actor Rosie Perez. She's here to talk about the new season of the HBO Max series, The Flight Attendant. Please welcome, Rosie Perez. Please welcome Rosie Perez. Welcome back to the Daily Show. Thank you so much. It's so good to have you here. And congratulations on season two of the flight attendant. That's really exciting.
Starting point is 00:28:14 Yes, it's very exciting. Like, when you started the show, did you think it would receive the amount of a claim that it has? Because, I mean, it got tons of Emmy nominations. People have raved about it. It's no surprise that it has because I mean it got tons of Emmy nominations. People have raved about it. It's no surprise that it got renewed. But when you start a show, do you have a feeling where you go, yeah, this is just going to keep going?
Starting point is 00:28:30 When I first read it, I said, this is a weird show. And I turned it down, because I don't like traveling. I hate flying. Yeah, we spoke, yeah. And I, yeah. And I, yeah. And I, yeah. And I, yeah. And I, yeah. And I th. And I I glad that I said yes. It was the first scene that I had with Kaylee Coco. I just knew it. I just knew it first day, first scene, out the bag. I said, this is going to be a hit. The two of you do have an amazing chemistry.
Starting point is 00:28:58 And to your point of the characters, what I loved right at the end of season one is that your character, I mean mean it was one of the most amazing monologues. If you haven't watched the show, watch it, and then specifically this scene, you know what I'm talking about. This beautiful moment where your character has this monologue where she talks about the invisible woman. And it's this beautiful journey where we learn about menopause, but in intimate way, it's not like a caricature of what menopause is. What was what was special about that scene for you? It was special because in Hollywood they don't allow women to age you know and you have to do all this shit to your face and body you know I'm serious I love to eat honey I can't I just can't do it I just can't do it you know
Starting point is 00:29:41 I can't do it you know I mean I try but it was it it it it it it it it it the the the th th th th it th it th th it th it th it th it 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 thus thus th th to 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 th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th 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 to to to the try, but it was it was very important to me to to embrace the age. I thought it would be okay because just because you turn a certain age doesn't mean you're dead, you know, but when you do turn a certain age, your mind is going crazy. It is, especially when it's menopause, you're like, what the hell is going on? You know? And so I really wanted to bring that. And I was really happy that the executive producers, you know, you know, Steve Yaki, Meredith Lavender and Marcy, they were like,
Starting point is 00:30:21 go at it, you know, and I was like, great. And I, and you're right, I, I, I, I, I, I get th right, I get th right, I get th right, I get th right, I get that I get th right, I get th right, I get th right, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I get that I get that, I get that that that that that that, I get so, I, I get so, that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that, I, I, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. 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, to, to, to, to, to, to me, and I, and you're right, I get so much response from women of a certain age to go, thank you. Thank you, my husband doesn't think I'm crazy now, you know. You know, I love that. Yeah. It really has been amazing to watch, you know, and I feel like Rosie Perez course, and then you're one of my favorite moments from the Oscars, just that scene of like the reunion of the cost of white men can't jump, you know, that was really cool to see on stage. I was pissed off at them, though.
Starting point is 00:30:55 You were? I was. Because I said, I just said, to the, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, just, the, the, the, the, the, the, just, the, the, just, just, just, just, just, just, just, just, just, just, just, just, just, just, just, just, just, just, just, just, just, just, just, just, just, just, just, just, just, just, just, the, just, the, just, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the., the........... just, the. just, the. just, the the the the the the the the the, just, Yes. And fluff it, let it go, and let me walk out. They said, okay. And then I see it on the playback, they were holding it the whole time, cracking up. And they were high off their asses. I think there was a joke, no? Oh, man. Oh, that's, okay. You see, now, this is what I'm the behind, the behind, the behind, the behind, the behind, the behind, the behind, the behind, the behind, the behind, the behind, the behind, the behind, the behind, the behind, the behind, the behind, the behind, the behind, the behind, the behind, the behind, the behind, their. their. their, the, the, the, the, the, the, 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. the. theat. theat-uh. theat-uh. te. t-uh, te. together. th. th. thea. th. thea. their, that's, that's, okay, you see now, this is what I'm loving.
Starting point is 00:31:26 We're getting the behind the scenes now. We're getting behind the scenes. You, you, you, you, I feel like you're living in an exciting time right now. You're back in New York now for a little bit. The boxing, Madison Square Garden. going to be the biggest women's boxing title. Oh my God. First time ever, that it's going to be a women's boxing headline at MSG ever. They are the main event. It is Amanda Serrano. She is Borigua. And versus Katie Taylor. And she's no joke.
Starting point is 00:32:02 Yeah. You know, these are really two tough women who are at the elite level. It's not just a silly fight. This is going to be a banger. I will say this. I did not have a lot of love for Jake Paul. I have never met him. Just because of the antics and all of that. You know, I don't know him personally. I have nothing personally against him, but I was just like, whatever. The fact that he put on this fight against Amanda Surrano versus Katie Taylor at Madison Square Garden April 30th,
Starting point is 00:32:36 is something to give him a lot of credit for. Because that fight should have happened years ago. and a lot of promoters did not pay attention even the promoters that are co-promoting the fight. You know Amanda Sarandal deserved that fight she deserved more. Katie Taylor was getting paid and Amanda Saranamo was not. She is a seven division seven time world champion. Seven division. Seven division and now she's getting a division. And now she's getting a real payday. Now she's getting like seven figures. And I hate to say it but it's all because of Jake Paul. You know, so I gotta I got to give him credit but
Starting point is 00:33:15 you know what stay the hell out of the ring Jake. You know? You know? Oh man. I could talk to you forever. Thank you so much for joining on the show.
