Plus, we have two guests on the show tonight. Journalist and documentarian, Soledad O'Brien is here, and then Amy Schuma is also going to be joining us on the show. So, let's do this people, let's jump straight into today's headlines. 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. Which, like, what's adult-themed if it's not sex and nudity? I was just like, ooh, 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 toilet, which was 500 years old, was destroyed when a man accidentally backed his car up over it. And 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 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 biggest 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... th. th. th. the year, th. th. the year, th, the year, th, the year, w w w w w w w w w. th, w. th, wi th, wi. th. th. th. th. thi. thi. to to to to to th. to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to too, which, which, which, which, which, which, which, which, which, which, which, which, which, which, which, which, which, which, which, which, which, which, which, which, which, which, which too, which too, which too, which too, th. th. th. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. too. too. too. too. too. to to to to to too. too. too. too. to, to on to some of the biggest 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 to make to make to make to make to make to make their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, when their, when their, when their, when their, when their, when their, when, when, when, when their, when, when, when, when when when when, when when when, when when when when when, when, when when when when, when when when, when their, when 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. 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 string state, basically every ad you're seeing on TV right now is a campaign ad. And 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 Toyota Thon is on, please. Please. No, I don't tho tho tho tho tho tho tho tho th tho th th th th th th th thi th thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi their thi's their their their their their their their tho tho their to to to to to to to to to to their their their their their their their their their their, please, please, please, please, please, please, please, please, please, please, please, please, please, please, please, please, please, please, please, please, please, please, please, please, please, please, please, please, please, I th th th th th th th th th th thi tho tho tho to to to to to to to to to to th to th thooooooooo. their their their thoooo. their th th to to know when Toyota Thorn is on, please. Now, I don't need to tell you guys, but political ads in America can get pretty wild. They really can't. 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 Vote-Demik 2022. 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's senator been running ads emphasizing these issues. You know, some of them have been subtle. But Louisiana's 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 of the cops, the next time you get in trouble, call a crackhead.

I'm John Kennedy, and I approve this message. Okay, all right, all right. First of all, nobody's going to call a crackhead. It's 2022, I'm going to text a crackhead. This is a crazy way to frame things though, right? He's like, violent crime, call a crackhead. The Senate is 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 it a little strange. He's like, ever since I got in the office, crime has exploded. Re-elect me so I can figure out what's going on. 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, what? Does the plan just to keep hiring until the entire population is just cops? Yeah, that way I got an eye the the their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their the plan just to keep hiring until the entire population is just cops? 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. I know it might be a little crazy. But you've got to admit, a crackhead detective show? That sounds like a great idea for a CSI spin-off. 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. 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 Swarwell just put out one of the most hardcore campaign ads you've ever seen. What the hell? 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 is my personal business. That's for the courts to decide, ma'am. Your medical records have been subpoenaed, and Dr. Landry is already in custody. No, my God, you can't just...

You will have to submit to a physical examination. What? By who? No, no, no, no, no, no, no, to touch her. I want to get it! Man, turn them out! Put your hands behind your back. Now! Why is this happening? Love you, let me bear. We're just enforcing the law here. Elections have consequences.

Vote Democrat on November 8th. Holy shit. That was intense. You don't usually expect a campaign ad to turn into an episode of Black Mirror. What was that? I actually feel bad for the shows that had to come back from that ad break. 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 row 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. And so look, I know this ad, the ad, their lighed thirty, thiiol-a's thiol-a' thiol-a' thiol-a' thi'a' their' their' their' a little ad, their' their' their' their' their' their' their'-a' their' their' their' their' thirty-a' their' thirty's told's thi' their' their' their' their' their' their' c-a' too-a'-a'-a'-a'a'a'a'a'a'a'a'a'a'a'a'a'a'a'a'a'a'a'a'a'a'a'a'a'a'a'a'n'a'a'n'-a'-a'-a'-a'-a'-a'-a'-a'-a'-a'-a'-a'-a'-a'-a'-a'-a'-a'-a'-a'-e'-a'-a'-a'-a'-a'-a'er-a'er-a'-a'-a'er-a'er- 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, oh, there's no way this little old lady could spit fire over a dope rap beat. Well guess what? You're right. 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 speak.

But in schools, they are pushing for new beliefs. And just to clarify, that's 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 Pulson. Linda Pulson for Senate. 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 notice that at some point the beat stopped? But it stopped itself. Like she was so offbeat. It's almost like the beat was like, am I the one messing up? But wait, do you know I'm here? What is happening? Yeah, gangster 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, here's my question, who is this for? Who is this ad for? 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, Bee? 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? I'm Linda Poulson and I'm here to see. Your shit is corny, Miss Paulson. Get with the times, update your revelry, like, use a trap beats at the trap beats at 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 do. Say them, bough, get them by, get a bit, I'm fat. Get them on, get it, get a minute, hey, get it in my back.

And I think that answers your question. What's the mean? What's the mean? You know what I was thinking is like, what do you think about it? Joe Biden has basically been doing tpped music this whole time. Come on, man. 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, Dosey Sloan, everybody.

Wow! Wow! Jose Sloan, just to see you. How are you doing today? I'm good friend. How about you? I'm fantastic. But today we don't have much time, so please can we get straight to the lotter numbers? I got you, baby.

Okay, 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've got to worry about these fools still in your weed. Now your food being late is one thing, but I don't want to end up in a drug deal gone bad,

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, or now I got to fight you? I'm going full Liam Niesens. You understand? 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've got to smoke the weed, I'd have forgot about the food, but now I don't have either. We've got the numbers, please. And a rap lady, Linda Paulson, Linda Paulson, oh. Y'all didn't talk about that choreography, Linda Paulson, did you see that?

Yeah, nice to be here in person. Right. Last time we spoke was virtually, and now we are here, there. So, that. So Lidad O'Brien, welcome to the day's show. Thank you so much. It's nice to be here. Yeah, nice to be here in person. 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 know knows about, and yet nobody does.

If you told me, I'm going to make a documentary film, tha, the,there are so many of them. There's never been a documentary about Rosa Parks. How is the 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 a absolutely fascinating topic for a doc. Well I'll say this before I watched the documentary and you know maybe until a the, the, th. I, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, thin, th, th, th, th, th, tho, thi, thi, tho, tho, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, tho, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, thin, thin, thin, thin, thin, thr, thro, thro, thro, throooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo, throoo, thro, thi, you know 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 you know momentary moment moment of rebellion.

Day and a half spark this entire civil rights conversation in and around America. spark 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 four 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 in the middle of the bus. And so on that day she decided no. The the way way way way way way way way 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 to to to to to to to to th. too. th. the the th. too. to to to to to the the to the the the the the to the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the bus, the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. the. the. the. the. the. tooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo. too. too. too. 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 absolutely, Absolutely not accidental at all. It seems like she was not only calculated, but she was focused and purposeful in everything that she did. 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, right? She sits on the bus, there's a boycottot, it it the boy the boy, it, it, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, bus, there's a boycott, it ends, everybody goes back to normal. Well, no, Rosa Parks is never able to work again. And even a 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.

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, I'm, the founders, the founders, the founders, the founders, the founders, the founders, the founders, the founders, the founders, the founders, the founders, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, th. th, th, th, th, th, is, is, is, is, is, is, is th, is th, is th, is th.. is th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. tho, is thr. to. too. too. too. too. too. too. too. too. too. too. tho. tho. tho. tho. tho. th. th. th. 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, she was mad about how white children were able to have buses and go to school and better schools and 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's sad, and then it ended and the end, and the end........ . the end. the end. the end.. So. So. So, do. So, do. So, do. So, do. Do. Do. So, do. Do, do. Do, do. Do, do. So, do. So, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do the end, do, so 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 the the the the the the the the the the the the th. So, so. So, so. the. So, so, so, so, so, today, today, so ttttoday. So. So. So, so. So, so th th th th the. So, said and then it ended and the end. 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, you know 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, any way 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 a, if it's almost what society wants? I think it's a better a the the the the the the the the their their their to their to to to to to to to to to to to their their to to their to their their to to to to to be almost almost almost almost almost to be almost almost almost almost almost almost almost almost almost to be to be to be to be 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 to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to their, to their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the tooe.a. their, their, their'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. 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 the the 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 thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi th 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

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 stumble 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. the the thiiiii. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. th. 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.

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. 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, no, no, no, no, no, no, we, no, we, th. th. th. th. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. too. too. too. too. too. tho. too. too. too. too. too. too. too. too. too. too. too. too. too. too. too. too. too. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. the. the. too. the. too. the. thei. too. thei. toe. toe. too. toe. toe. too. toe. toe. ells 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 that change can take effect.

My next guest tonight is an actor and a comedian who's currently on a nationwide stand-up comedy tour and the fifth season of her show inside Amy Schuma will premiere October 20th on Paramount Plus. Please welcome Amy Schumer. Trevor Nowhe. Welcome to the Daily Show. Thank you. I'm going to miss you.

Don't leave. What do you mean? I mean, you know what I mean? You know what I mean? 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. I'll see you, you're on t 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.

I know, but I don't want to see you in person. I want to see you on TV. Where you belong. It's good to see you back where you belong. It's good to see. Inside Amy Schumer, we have waited such a long time. It was critically acclaimed, what are you in? Like three Emmy Awards, right? Nominated multiple times you've been up there accepting it. It was huge. And then you disappeared.

You became a movie star. And then you worked on a New York Times bestselling book. And then it was just like, no, Amy's back now. I'm so sorry about that. I you know like you know 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 ground dog you know just like I'm still here you know but then it's just you know you just want to burn women to a.

the the Iranian women that the stake. You know, I mean, really, it's just, it's, which makes me want to give a shout out to the Iranian women right now. Zanzandagi Azaddi. It is, 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 stand up, where you've gone, you know, Amy should shut up about this, Amy shouldn't talk about that, oh you know politics, this is not your place, just shut up and be funny, actually you're not even funny. It feels like, and I'm not even comparing the two words by the way, 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 this in 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 um tell my husband that I I uh love a little respect at home, but I'm just announced. 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, but it just meant equality. And it, 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 you know it's like this show too. It's you know, 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, I mean, that's the only way I want to learn anything. You know, I, that's the only way I like learning things. Yeah. You do that in in the show, you the show, inthere 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 punchline, they started, you know, they started being a lot more vulnerability. I'd 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 what I mean? Like, you're supposed to have healthy boundaries, 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, thi thi sick sick sick sick sick sick sick sick sick sick sick, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like,, but it's 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 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 this 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 miiiiiiiiiiiiiiii. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. to bea. to bea. to bea. to bea. to bea, to bea, and to be, and to be, and to be, and to be, and to be, and to be, and to be, and to be, and to be, and to be, and to be, and to bea, and to be a to be a to bea, and to bea, and to bea, and to bea, and to bea, and to bea, and to bea, and to bea, and to be a to be a to be a to be a the. to be a to be a thea. to be a to be a to be a thea. to be a to be a to be a to be a to be a to be a thea, and to be a little too much? I've learned to ask people if they don't want jokes about them and that it's not worth it to burn any bridges with your friends and family. What do you think you're going to do like with kids? You know, because I mean, a lot of comedians think their kids are really funny. Yeah. And they are. You have to admit, they are. But then now, you know, some, you, you, you, you, some, some, some, some, some, some, some, some, some, some, some, some, some, some, some, some, some, some, some, some, some, some, some, some, some, some, some, some, some, some, some, some, some, some, some, some, some, some, some, some, some, some, some, some, some, some, some, the, the, the, the, 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, their, their, their, what, their, their, their, their, their, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, the joke about me. Oh, yeah, I don't plan on. I really, I already, you know, like 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? No. Oh gosh, okay. First name, Gene, because that was my husband's mother's thiiiiiiii, the the the the 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 that that that that that that that that Jean, because that was my husband's mother's name. And then, his last name, my husband's last name was Fisher, which is why I, Amy, won't take it. I don't know if you know who Amy Fisher 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 David Tell, my favorite comedian, my good friend. So we made his middle name Mattel. I named him Genital Fischer.

that was... Please make eye contact with me. Genital Fisher, okay? Yeah. And so I, but I don't want to joke about him. I don't, I try not to post pictures of him. I don't want to say anything.
