And this season we are joined by fan favorite and Survivor 46 runner-up, Charlie, Charlie, I'm excited to do this together. Thanks, Jeff. So excited to be here, and I can't wait to bring you inside the mind of a survivor player for season 47. Listen to On Fire the official Survivor podcast starting September 18th wherever you get your podcast. You're listening to Comedy Central. From the most trusted journalists at Comedy Central. It's America's only source for news. This is the Daily Show with your host, Desi Lydides. Welcome to the 90 show. I'm Debbie Leidig.

We've got a great show for you tonight. Joe Biden's dog turns the secret surface into an All You Can Eat buffet. We learned why your grandmother's butt dials weren't going through, and we put an end to a terrible rumor about Nikki Haley. Plus, Grammy winner Jason Isbel! So let's get into the headline. Let's kick things off with the scandal that's been rocking the White House. According to a new report, Joe Biden's dog commander bit Secret Service agents at least 24 times before he was banished from the White House last October. 24 times. I'm sorry, even John Wick would be like, you gotta get rid of that dog.

Let's move on to another world leader, Beyonce. She just made history by becoming the first black woman to top the country music chart. Huge, with their hits on Texas Hold'em. So grace yourselves, and gays, because half your friends on Instagram are going to spend the summer thinking they can pull off cowboy hats. They can't. This is very exciting for everyone. Well, except for Jay-Z. Lemonade was great, but if you get caught cheating in a country song, thoughts and prayers. And in tech news, tens of thous-Ze, thoughts and prayers. And in tech news, tens of thousands of people across the country lost cell

phone service this morning when AT&T and other companies were hit with a massive outage. No one got any calls or texts. Thousands of Americans finding out what it's like to be Ted Cruz. And I bet cable companies were feeling pretty cocky this morning. Well, well, well, guess a landline isn't so useless anymore, is it? Now if you'll excuse me, I'm getting a call. It's a telemarketer. It's a telemarketer. For more on this fallout of this service disruption, we turn to Troy Iwada. Now, Troy, were you affected by this awful outage? Awful, does he? This was the best morning of my life.

I reconnected with an old friend, and his name is Troy. I looked up at the world around me. Children were laughing. People were chatting. Bonjou monsieur. OK, I'm glad you had a nice time off the grid. But what can you report about the impact of this outage?

Emergency services had trouble all day. And you know who didn't know about that? Me. Because I had no service. I wasn't reading dumb notifications. I was taking a walk with a beautiful stranger I met on the train. And we took a horse carriage ride and we sat by the lake and we watched two swans make love.

It was very loud. I'd never seen a swan finish before. Then I meditated under a tree. Then I meditated under a tree. And I entered a transcendental enlightenment and I experienced ego death. I also baked these snicker doodles. Oh, I love snicker doodles.

Troy, I have to admit, I didn't realize that there was such an upside to this outage. From the bottom of my heart, I want to thank whoever was behind this. Whether it was Russian operatives or Al Qaeda, or just good old-fashioned case of people sucking at their job, thank you. Thank you so much for this morning. That's wonderful. It sounds like this was a transformative experience for you. So how will this new outlook inform your life now that the service is back on? Troy.

Hmm. Oh, sorry, some guy on Tick-Tock is reviewing a fake Berkin, idiot. Uh-huh. What's that? Well, w- Well, w- W- Hmm oh sorry some guy on tick-talk is reviewing a fake Berkin idiot What's up? Welcome back Troy. Troy you want everybody

Let's move on to the presidential race Haley this week and how she's staying in the race despite having worse odds than the New York Mets winning next year's Super Bowl. I have to say, I'm actually glad she's staying in the race because even if you don't agree with her politics, she still really pisses Donald Trump off. And that's a beautiful thing. She is clearly on his enemies list along with the law and waste bans. But she's not just the only Trump alternative in the GOP race. According to the media, she's also the only moderate one.

Nikki Haley has sort of this moderate old-school republicanism. She's become the candidate of the moderates. A moderate candidate like Nicky Haley, who is increasingly an outsider in the Republican Party. Yes, obviously Nikki Haley is a moderate. It's something that everybody knows, like Joe Biden is old, or RFK is a biohazard, or Tim Scott is crying on the inside. It's just a fact that nobody disputes. But is it a fact?

Is Nikki Haley the moderate in the race? Because when you actually take a look at her policies, they aren't that different from Trump. She also wants to build the wall. She also wants mass deportations. She's also opposed to Obamacare in the Paris Climate and, and in fact, on abortion, she's even more extreme than Trump.

She supports a national ban after six weeks before most women even know that they're pregnant. At six weeks the symptoms are fatigue and stomach issues and women can't take a pregnancy test every time they get bubble guts. It's not that she doesn't care about women's issues. It's that she has a very unmoderate idea of what women's issues are. The idea that we have biological boys playing in girls sports. she has a very unmoderate idea of what women's issues are. The idea that we have biological boys playing in girls' sports. It is the women's issue of our time. Really, Nicky? That's the women's issue of our time?

Not abortion access or equal pay, or even how to part your hair so teens don't bully you Never thought I'd say this, but Nikki Haley is so bad at knowing what women actually want. I think maybe her husband should order for her at restaurants. So most of her policies aren't more moderate than Trump, and if you ask her, she herself doesn't identify as a moderate. On the campaign trail, Haley has made it very clear that she says she's not a moderate. I have been a conservative fighter all my life. I was a Tea Party candidate when I became governor. And we passed one of the toughest illegal immigration laws in the country.

We passed pro-life bills. We took on the unions and we took on Obama. When it came to the unions, the Syrian refugees and everything in between. Guys, she says she's not a moderate. Believe women. So again, ifanor. She's certainly the only candidate speaking at her moderate volume. You got Trump screaming so loud, AT&T satellites are exploding. And then you got Biden at every press conference whispering to the ghost of Christmas pass. Just using a proper inside voice is going to seem like a breath of fresh air. But that can't

be all of it. When it comes down to it, there's only one real difference between Nikki Haley and Donald Trump that's getting her this label. Do I think Joe Biden is the legitimate president? Yes. Wow, what a reasonable middle-of-the-road answer. The man who won the election won the election won the election. But that's where we're at. That is the big split in the Republican Party today.

Do you think Joe Biden won the election, or did you take a shit on Nancy Pelosi's desk. But the media is not used to discussing democracy versus fascism. They're used to discussing left versus right. So they put Donald Trump on the far right, and anybody who didn't, didn't, storm the capital becomes a moderate. But that means that any Republican, no matter what their views are, gets labeled as a moderate. But they're that their today thate, thate the. thate, thate, thate, thate, thate, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, thiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii. thoan, tho-a, tho, tho-a, their tho, tho, tho, their their their their their their their, their their their, their their, their their their their their their their their their their their their thate. thate. thate. thiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii. thii. thiii. the. theeeee. toea. toea. theauuuuu. toeau. toea. toe. toe. thea. thea. toe. the. moderate. But that means that any Republican, no matter what their views are, gets labeled as a moderate just because they believe in democracy. Like Georgia Governor Brian Kemp. He's been called the most conservative governor in Georgia's history. But he also doesn't think the election was stolen.

So now people call him a moderate. Or Liz Cheney. She denies climate change, she's anti-abortion, and she loves bombing other countries just as much as her dad. Yeah, she's a Neppo bomber. She loves bombing other countries so much. She thought Oppenheimer was the first season of an ABC sitcom. But because she says that Trump lost, guess what she's called? You've got Liz Cheney being a female voice in the Republican Party demanding a more moderate approach. The thoughtful moderate pro-constitution Republicans like Liz Cheney.

And you might be wondering, why does it even matter? So what if the media mistakenly calls some conservatives moderates? Sometimes I call my husband, my ex-boyfriend's name. It's fine. He barely notices. He left me. But it does matter. Because the word moderate means much more than just believing Joe Biden won the election.

Most people still think that it means not extreme or willing to compromise. So when the media attaches this label to candidates who support abortion bans and endless wars, that makes those beliefs sound moderate. But they're not. And the media should not be labeling them as moderates just because they pass the low bar of not overthrowing the government. I'm sorry... I'm sorry if I'm getting emotional about this, but I just believe that having biological conservatives competing in moderate sports, that is the women's issue of our time.

When we come back, we'll talk to Jason Isbel so don't go away. John Stewart here, unbelievably exciting news. My new podcast, The Weekly Show. We're going to be talking about the election, economics, ingredient to bread ratio on sandwiches. Listen to the weekly show with John Stewart, wherever you get your podcast. Welcome back to the Daily Show. My guest tonight is a Grammy Award winning musician whose latest album is called Weather Vanes. He can also be seen in the Oscar nominated film, Killers of the Flower Moon. Please welcome Jason Invol. Please welcome Jason Invol. Oh my goodness. Congratulations.

Oh my goodness. Congratulations. You got another Grammy. Oh my goodness. Congratulations. You got another Grammy. I did it. I got a couple this time. It was crazy. Oh my God. This! Thank you. You got another Grammy. I do it. I got a couple this time. It was crazy. Oh my God, this is how many six?

This is six. Good Lord. Yeah. Yeah. Well deserved. Well deserved. Well deserved. And not only are you an accomplished musician, but you are now an incredible actor. You were in Martin Scorsese's Killers of the Flower Moon, which has been nominated for all

of the Academy Awards. And you're great in it. Now, did you find that the grind of touring and performing prepared you for the pure stamina you needed to sit through the entire movie, start to finish? Yeah. I do really good at not peeing, and that helped a lot. You're well-trained for it. Yeah, I'm right.

Yeah, it was an incredible experience to see all that go down. I didn't know why I was there. No, don't be so much. You're incredible in the film. Well, thank you. And I do believe they didn't let me screw the movie up. No. But it took a little while for me to realize that. So they had this guy who was like a dialect coach, right?

And all day, every day, he was working with DiCaprio and with DeNiro on talking like like this. And I went and met with him and he said, we're just th and I'm th and I'm th and I'm th and met and met and met and I'm th and met and met and I'm th and I'm th and met and met and I'm th and I'm th and met and met and th, we're just going to hang out. I don't have any notes for you. You just talk like you talk. And I thought, I know why I'm here. They're saving money on the dollar. There you go. Talent and a budget cut. Two birds.

One stone. That's so fine. I also heard that an incident. that an incident. I also heard that. happened on set when you were doing a scene with Leonardo DiCaprio. Oh yeah, there was an incident. It was an incident. Someone, yeah, do you want to tell it? I could tell you that. Yeah, I could say, I would not have volunteered to tell the story, but I would have

the sense of humor of a 14-year-old boy. So I would love for you to scene where the two of us kind of get up in each other's face. And it's intense, you know, and we're not friends, and we're about to, you know, throw hands. And it gets really serious. And we've been doing this for a couple of hours. And all of a sudden, there were like 30 crew people in the room and me and Leo. And the camera was rolling, and all of a sudden, somebody in the crew, the crew, the crew, the crew, the crew, the crew, the crew, the crew, the crew, and the crew, the crew, and the crew, and the crew, and the the the the the the the the the the the the the the, and we were, and we were, and we're, somebody in the crew flatulated. He said that in the most polite southern way. He flatchled. Well I shouldn't assume it's a he. It could have been a she. It very well could have been a she. But whoever it was, you could tell that

that that person had lost a great battle. Oh, yeah. Just by the sound of it, you know. And then of course everybody being the best of the best, nobody did anything. Nobody would, oh, he farted, you know. It was like, later on I called it a farticus situation, because they were all willing to take the hit for this. But what happened was I started laughing and DiCaprio started laughing and I thought, oh, great, we're doing one of those blooper reels because I've never been in a movie before.

I thought this guy farted, this is going to be great. And then he, like, wove the laugh into his character and all of a sudden it was earnest laughing at Bill and I was not Bill anymore. I was, I was a redneck laughing at a farting man. And I realized this is why one of us has an Oscar. And the other one is about a budget for an accent. I thought you were going to say that he rolled it into his character and he just said, excuse me, and just went on. And now that's part of the movie.

I'm nervous. That's what my guitar players, I'm nervous. I'm nervous. I imagine when you're on stage performing that if that sort of thing happens one of the band members farts then you just play louder. You do, yeah you do. Well we have cues you know it's it's hard to communicate on stage so sometimes it's intentional it's like oh that's that's when we go to the drum solo. No was this the first time that you ever acted before? Really yeah it was I've 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 that that that that that that that 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 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 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 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 th. that's th. that's th. 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 thatthis the first time that you ever acted before? Really, yeah, it was. I've done some voiceover stuff for a show called the Squidbillies, a show that I love. That was great. Yeah, you got the fans here.

I was the youth minister on that show. I had gone to Bible school on a cheerleading scholarship. So, essentially I was just playing myself on that one. That was easy. And then I was in the Deadwood movie just standing there in the background because I just loved the show so much that they let me come stand in the background. That was generous of them. It was really kind. But this is the first time I actually acted like somebody other than myself or a youth minister, so it was a challenge. You're really, really incredible in the movie.

Is it true that you just started auditioning during some downtime during COVID when you put in tour? Yeah, we were locked down, couldn't tour, and I told my agent if you can find anything where people are working safely and I can keep me busy and do something creative and if there's a good story to tell. So I got an audition, I got another audition and I wound up on a zoom call in my bedroom with Scorsesey and De Niro. And then I got the part. Yeah, it was amazing.

It was my birthday actually. Oh, what a birthday good! Doesn't get any better than that. So I want to talk about Weather Vanes. I heard that you wrote the entire album when you had downtime on set. Is that true? Yeah, almost all of it. I did. Now when I have downtime on set, I play wordle.

Yes. I had gone through a lot of wordle. I've tried, sometimes I'll try everything else except what I should be doing. How did you do that? Do you now have a creative association with your, with the acting process on that film and the songwriting process? Are they woven in any way? I think so. But that was incidental, really. You know, I didn't know until I went back and listened to the finished

product of the album that I had used a lot of themes and names that happened to line up with the movie, you know, in the song King of Oklahoma, there's a Molly, and that to me had, I had no idea that I was spending most of my time with Lily Gladstone who was playing Molly and it was just getting into my brain. And I kind of, one of the tricks that I have as a songwriter, as I go along, I have eliminated ways of editing myself until it's time to start editing, so I don't slow myself down. And so if I'm writing a song, I'm not paying attention to much other than just the puzzle of making the words line up.

Do you play and write in your head at the same time or do you write first and then, how does the same time or do you write first and then how does the process work? How do you not get in your way when you're in the creative flow? You have to remind yourself, like am I writing a song or am I editing a song? You know, and those, you can't do those at the same time. I can't, some people probably can. But I usually, I'll start by like repeating a phrase, I'll over hear something or I'll over here, I'll, I'll, 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, 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, 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, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, I, I, th..A, I'm, th.A, I, I'm, th.I.A.A.I.A. I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, to,. And it may be like literally what I'm doing. Like I might say, there's not coffee in this. And that might be. Well, you don't have to give it away.

I'm sorry they cut the budget, okay? We'll get your coffee. Most of my songs are complaints at the end of the way. But then after a while you just repeat it and a melody sort of makes itself happen and then I'll pick up a guitar and start finding the chords. You know, I kind of look at it like there's a big huge field full of rocks and everything you need is under one of those rocks. And it might be under the first rocky pick up, but you might have to pick up a million

of them. But if you just keep trying things, eventually you'll get there. I feel like I'm just just a lifetime of picking up rocks. Keep going. You have a song called Middle of the Morning and you talk about being a strong but silent Southern man. Do you feel like the idea of what a Southern man is or southern masculinity has evolved in your lifetime? We're trying to evolve that, you know, but evidence sometimes shows the contrary to be true. How so?

Well, you know, in my experience, we're not always the best at talking about how we feel, and that makes us not very good at dealing with our emotions. And things will come out in ways that we don't intend them to, you know, when we're not able to say, I am scared or I am sad. And I don't necessarily know that that's a southern thing, but, you know, it definitely happens a lot in the south and that's where I came from. And... Do you hope that your music can kind of act as a solve for for young men to grow up and see another way of being? I would like that, you know, it serves a purpose for me initially, but I think if your intentions are honest and you're really trying to communicate with people, then that will happen as a byproduct of what you're doing. And I do. I see a lot 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 I see I see I see I see I see I see I see, I see, i thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi thi thi, thi thi thi thi thi thi thi, thi, thi, thi, thi thi, thi thi, thi, thr----a throoooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo, to to to to the to then that will happen as a byproduct of what you're doing.

And I do, I see a lot of big dudes crying at the shows and it makes me really happy. It makes me really happy. I think you're making a lot of big dudes. I think you're making a lot of big dudes. I think you're making a lot of big dudes. You also are extremely outspoken when it comes to common sense gun laws and advocacy. You wrote a song on your album that's about the fear as a parent that you have in this country

that many of us feel sending our kids to school every day. Was that, I can't even imagine how difficult that song was to write? Was it an emotional experience for you? It was hard. The first time I wrote it, I didn't do a very good job because I wasn't saying exactly what I wanted to say, you know. And when I rewrote it, I got closer to what I meant and then I did it again and finally I was actually telling the truth.

Sometimes that's the process, you know, you want to be vague and you don't want to hit the nail on the head, but this one really called for that. And I went from, when I'm writing about something that heavy, I find the best way to do it for me is to go from my own personal perspective. I don't have any experience in a mass shooting situation. So I'm I I I I I I I'm not tho I'm not tho tho tho tho tho tho tho tho tho tho tho tho tho tho tho tho tho tho tho tho tho tho tho tho to write a song about that. But what I will write about is being at the grocery store and hearing a balloon pop and the first thing that comes into my mind is oh my god is somebody in here with a gun, you know, and I know it's something that is extremely

frustrating for a whole lot of people in this country to deal with. It's a, you know, it's something that we shouldn't have to worry about. I think it's something that that that that that that that that that's something that that's something that's something that that's something that's something that's something that's something that's something that's something that's something that's something that's something that's something that's something that's something that we shouldn't have to worry about. I think it's something that, that, you know, is a capitalist issue at heart. I think all those companies that sprung up after the Brady Bill was repealed are really kind of pulling the strings right now and selling people something that they don't need so they can feel proud of something that they really shouldn't be proud of, you know. But it's scary, it's scary. And having a child, you know, it does make you think about these things more often. It won't necessarily make a good person out of you, but if you start as one, it'll make you worry a lot.

That's the truth. Cheers. I have to smell. I have to smell. Well, you're going to to perform a song called Cast Iron Skillet. Now, I'm from Kentucky. I'm from. It. It. It. It. It. It. It. It. It's. It's. It's. It's. It's, I'm th. It's, I'm to to to to to, you're going to stay and you're going to perform for us. You're going to perform a song called cast iron skillet. Now I'm from Kentucky, so I'm no stranger to southern phrases like, don't wash the cast iron skillet. That's why I never do the dishes. But these, but you have a way of using these like simple southern phrases but there's a much deeper meaning underneath.

What was the inspiration behind this song? I like to make characters and then follow them around and see what they do. When I start a song, I don't necessarily know how it's going to end. I just like to make characters that you can believe and that are honest and then see how they behave as human people would behave. And sometimes that character is character tha character tha character tha thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi their thi thi thi. thi. thi. their thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. their 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. their. their. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. I thi. I thi. I theeateateateateateateatea. I theateatea. I theateateate. I theateate. I would behave. And sometimes that character is the narrator. Because this has two, this song has two separate stories. Both of them are true and both of them happened to people that I was close to when I was a child. The first story is about a couple of guys that I went to school with, who, you know, went down a bad path and wound up murdering somebody going to prison for the rest the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the their, their, their, th. And, thoes, thoes, thoes, thoes, thoes, thoes, thoes, thoes, thoes, thoes, thoes, thoes, thoes, thoes, thoes, thoes, thoes, thoes, tho, tho, tho, too, too, too, too, to s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s'e, to, to, toooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo.e.e.e.e.e.e, to, to, to for the rest of their lives. And then the second part is about a relative I had who fell in love with a black man and

her dad disowned her and never spoke to her again. And you know, these things really happened and this was the 80s and the 90s and you know they still happen today. And the narrator is trying to give advice but it's not really good advice. I mean here the the the the the the the the the the the the th th th th th th the th. T th. th. The th. th. th. the thiiuuuiuiuiui. thiou, you thiouc, you thioleteen. thinnenenec, you're thoes. thoes. thoes. thoes. I thoes. I thoes. I the. I the. I thia. I thia. I I thia. I I Ieeeeououee.

It's teanananananananananananananananananananananananananananananananananananedea but it's not really good advice. I mean, here's the secret. You can wash the skillet. You know, it's made of cats. It'll be fine. You can wash the skillet. A lot of times I'll write a song that has some southern words of wisdom in it, and people will say, hey, man, that's not exactly right. And I'm like, you're almost there. You're understanding understanding, you're understanding, you're understanding, you're understanding, you're understanding, you're understanding, you're understanding, you're understanding, you're understanding, you're understanding, you're understanding, you're understanding, you're understanding, you're understanding, you're understanding, you're understanding, you're understanding, you're understanding, you're understanding, you're understanding, you're almost understanding the song, you know. I cannot wait for you to perform. I'm very excited. Everyone here is very excited.

Weather Vains is available now and Killers of the Flower Moon is streaming globally on Apple TV Plus. Hey everybody, John Stewart here. I am here to tell you about my new podcast, The Weekly Show.
