Starting point is 00:00:00 You're listening to Comedy Central. Coming to you from New York City, the only city in America. It's the Daily Show. Tonight, the Queen is laid to rest, the history of black animation, and Sam Muriel. This is the Daily Show with Trevor Noah. Welcome to the Danny Sharp tribal. Thank you so much for shooting in. Thank you for coming out in Boston. Thank you so much for being here. Everyone, for more than the world.
Starting point is 00:00:48 Thank you so much. Take a seat. Let's do this thing. We have got a great show for you tonight. Jeff Bezos is now broke. Roywood Jr. Watches cartoons and Queen Elizabeth the big stories, let's catch up on a few other things that are going on in the world. First up, a giant story from the world of video games. Over the weekend, a hacker leaked
Starting point is 00:01:22 unfinished footage from the next Grand Theft Auto Game, and then they threatened to release more if Rockstar Games doesn't reach a deal with them. Yeah. And you know Rockstar the game manufacturer. They must be so pissed right now. How do these kids get the idea that it's fun to commit crimes, huh? Now luckily law enforcement has said that they had a lead on the criminal, but then he hid in a car wash for like a minute and now they just forgotten about the whole case. In international news, Gautam Adani, an Indian businessman who made his fortune in shipping and coal production, has officially passed Jeff Bezos to become the world's second richest
Starting point is 00:02:03 person. Yeah, poor Jeff Bezos. Yeah, when he heard this, his rocket ship immediately went limp. I see some of you are cheering, he's just like, yeah, Indian guy number two on the list. Don't forget, don't forget, yes. I mean, it's good news for him, but Mr. Adani's parents are Indian. So they probably still like, you know, I still wish you went to medical school. A billion in school, but you know what school is being a doctor.
Starting point is 00:02:32 Oh and an update on COVID-19 in an interview yesterday, President Biden said that while we still have a problem with the virus, quote, the pandemic is over. Yes, yeah, but I get why Biden said this. I mean, he just had COVID. Everyone, everyone who gets COVID is over COVID. Everyone, as soon as they're done, they're like, all right, it's done for everybody. Let's start this party! Start breathing in each other's mouth. All right, but let's get to the big story that everyone's talking about. Two weeks ago, as you all know, Queen Elizabeth died of being old. And it's been a wild two weeks since, right? Lots of heated debates from all sides. She was an icon, she was a tyrant, preserve the monarchy, get rid of the
Starting point is 00:03:15 monarchy. We hate Charles, we also hate Charles. But today, today Britain said, hey let's suppress our feelings as usual because it's the Queen's funeral. and they did it's in it in it in it it in it in it in it in it in it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's th it's thets it's thets thets thi. thets thatets thatets th. that that, right. that, right.

Right th. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. Lots thi. Lots thi. Lots thi. Lots thi. Lots of that's lots that that that that thatay Britain said, hey, let's suppress our feelings as usual because it's the Queen's funeral. And they did it in a major way, so let's catch up on the UK's big day and our latest installment of the Royal Rumble. Today, Queen Elizabeth was laid to rest at one of her favorite castles. But before she was laid to rest at one of her favourite castles. But before she was buried, the public was given a chance to visit her casket and pay their
Starting point is 00:03:53 respects. Overnight, that incredible line of mourners snaking through central London, thousands patiently waiting to pay their respects to Britain's longest-raining monarch. Tens of thousands from around the world wait for hours to see the Queen's coffin. With lines now stretching five miles to see her lying in state, their predicted wait tonight, an incredible 22 hours. I've been waiting for 10 hours. Even soccer star David Beckham lining up overnight for 13 hours. I think it was a reminder of how much people in this country really like to line up.
Starting point is 00:04:28 It really is a national pastime. British people enjoy queuing as they say in this country. That's a... It's an interesting takeaway. No, why these people here? They just like lining up. That's a something else. No, no, they just really like lining up. I don't think they also like the Queen. But, but this is true. Apparently, standing in line is really popular in Britain. It's like their national pastime. And before you make fun of them for doing something so boring, don't forget, America's a national pastime. thiii. thi. th, th, th, th, th, people act as if someone died but they didn't. But 22 hours in line, that's no joke. 22 hours, because remember, there's no iPhone at the end of that line, all right? It's just a box and you don't even get to open the box.
Starting point is 00:05:14 And as you heard, even David Beckham waited in line, which honestly I found so impressive, because apparently he was offered a chance to skip the cue and he refused, which is really admirable. I mean, especially when you consider that you don't know who you're going to be stuck in that line with, you know what I mean? Yeah, because at the beginning you might be like, I'm just going to stand in the line and next to you know there's like an Arsenal fan behind him for 20 hours just like, Oh shit, they say that in! Arsenal! Oh, so no! God save the Queen I'm missing so much! Awesome no! But, after days of queuing,
Starting point is 00:05:54 today was finally the Queen's funeral. And essentially, the entire country shut down for this thing. You've never seen anything like it. Schools and businesses were closed. I mean, and that's a really great way to honor, you know, someone who also never had to work, but it was intense. It was also a little inconvenient for people. Flights were canceled to avoid the noise. Hospitals even postponed surgeries. Yeah, and if you were supposed to get a surgery on a plane, forget it. That definitely wasn't happening. No, for real, I think it's actually good. I think it's good that they postpone routine surgeries because
Starting point is 00:06:28 like everyone in the UK is distracted today. You know, kind of doctors coming out like, Mrs. Abbott, I'm pleased to say the bum lift was a success. Like, but I needed a hip a hip replacement. And I need a new queen, but you don't hear me complaining. I get on out of here with that fat ass girl. Go on. Shake it. Just shake it. So obviously this was a huge deal. And by the way, not just for the Brits. Leaders from all over the world flew in to be a part of this funeral. Now, what was a little strange was that President Biden
Starting point is 00:07:06 arrived in a six-car motorcade. Meanwhile, leaders from most other countries had to share buses. I mean, that must have sucked. I mean, that must have sucked. It's like the whole point of becoming a witermahs, is that you don't ever have to ride a bus anymore. Imagine you're the emperor of Ja'niiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii. thi. thi. thi. to to to to to to thi. to to to to to to to to to to thi. thi. thi. to to to thi. thiol- thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi, thi, to to to to to to to to to thi, to thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, to to to too too too too too too too too too too too too too the thri thi. thi. thi. thi don't ever have to ride a bus anymore. Imagine you're the emperor of Japan and you have to pretend you don't hear Justin Trudeau
Starting point is 00:07:28 shitting in the bus bathroom. And obviously some people are mad that Biden got special treatment. But if you ask me, I think the other world leaders, they're the ones who benefited. Can you imagine being stuck on a bus with Joe Biden? With Joe Biden? The conversation would never end. It's just him like, so then Mr. Prime Minister, I said, Come on, Pop, I said, listen, Jack,
Starting point is 00:07:51 I lived in straight in the eye, I took his hair, I tell him, and then mama, I was sorry. What, what, what, what, you, you're moving to another scene? Come on, man. Listen. And world leaders weren't the only ones in attendance. No, the Queen's corgis were there too. And this was really sweet. Yeah. They got to pay their lost respect, you know, see the Queen one more time.
Starting point is 00:08:13 And then I assume follow the little trail of dog treats right into the tomb. Very adorable. That's how the English are the same. It's also like, why would you bring the dogs? Why are you torturing them? What, with the dogs like, sitting up in the morning, like, can we get a treats and like, I'll show you why there's no more treats? But once the funeral was over, the Queen's casket was driven to Windsor castle,
Starting point is 00:08:39 to give her one last chance to experience to the the to the to experience London traffic and everyone made it count. We are watching the royal procession of Queen Elizabeth's coffin. Cheers going up from the crowd, a crowd that has been quiet and somber throughout most of the morning, but now cheers as the Queen's coffin passes by, flowers being thrown from the crowd toward the Queen's coffin. This is probably my favorite part of a funeral. No, it genuinely is. It's like, there's a moment where everyone's sad because somebody's gone. And then there's the moment where you celebrate their life.
Starting point is 00:09:13 I love this moment, you know, you're like, oh, ha! It's just a way that they were throwing the flowers onto the car's windshield while the dude is driving. It's a bit risky. I don't know, the guy's gonna end up just plowing right into the crowd. Just put those in the back with the queen, let's go, let's go, let's go. We're gonna keep moving, gotta keep moving. But aside from all the flowers and panties being thrown at the car, it was a beautiful procession. With all the king's horses, all the king's men, basically everyone who couldn't save Humpty Dumpty, they were there. And it was a three-mile march from Westminster Abbey to Windsor Castle,
Starting point is 00:09:51 also known as The Long Walk. Yeah, or as Kylie Jenner calls it, why didn't they take the jet? So it was a long ride to Windsor Castle, but it was worth the wait. Because the ceremony, the ceremony formerly laying Her Majesty to rest, was not to be missed. The most intimate, moving moment was when the crown jeweler removed the instruments of state, that's the crown, the orb in the scepter, removed them from the queen's coffin and placed him on the altar,
Starting point is 00:10:22 and then the head of the Queen's household broke his wand of office and then placed that on the Queen's coffin. That essentially signals we're told that this Queen's reign is over the coffin, then lowered into the vault. There are ten other monarchs buried there at St. George's Chapel as well. Yeah, as the world watched on, Queen Elizabeth II, the UK's longest reigning monarch was lowered into the family vaults. And whether you are for or against the monarchy, you cannot deny, this is a landmark moment in history.
Starting point is 00:11:02 They broke the wand, and it's official. I will say and yes it's because I've read too much Harry Potter. This thing could have just as easily been part of a wizard ceremony, you know? It's like a guy in a cape holding an orb, snapping a wand. By the way, why is the wand getting buried with her the majesty? But nothing else? I feel like it's kind of a letdown, right? Because they could bury her with the crown and the orb, but they're like, no, no, we'll hold on to these. Yeah, you can be buried with this broken pool queue.
Starting point is 00:11:34 There you go. Tata. All right, that's it for the headlines. But before we go, for a Michael Costa, everybody! Michael? A lot of money moving. A lot of things changing. What's happening in the market today? Look, before we get into the markets, I, you know, I just want to say,
Starting point is 00:11:57 my thoughts are with the Queen, and I pray that law enforcement finds her killer, okay? So... I pray that law enforcement finds her killer. Okay? So, there was no- Today is a day where we reflect on the Queen's life, we reflect and evaluate our own lives. You know, I took the weekend to consider the direction of my life, and which way it's going.
Starting point is 00:12:17 And Trevor, I have to say, okay, honestly, now more than ever, I am absolutely crushing it. Okay, I am crushing it's even harder now because that's what the Queen would have wanted, okay? So I got a hot tip for you, and I got a hot tip for you as well, so pay attention. Or as they say in England, a boiling pointer. Now, behind me, this is the world billionaire index.
Starting point is 00:12:39 These are the five richest people in the world, otherwise known as Bernie Sanders' hit list, okay? But, okay, okay, okay, thi thi th, th, thi th, th, th, th, th, th, 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, th.

Starting point is 00:13:29 Think about that with your own one. The number one spot is still Elon Musk. Okay. You know, Elon just kind of started out as a normal rich guy and then he realized around 2020 that he can be so annoying, okay? Tweets, memes talking about crypto and guess what that business strategy worked and look at him the more annoying he is the more his value goes up. Now on the flip side Trevor, Bill Gates, I mean, geez, right? All the way down to number five, only $100 billion, what a loser, you know? I mean, you know who I blame,
Starting point is 00:14:15 actually? My mom, she's still running Windows 95, okay? It takes her 10 minutes to open up Solitaire. Now, big picture. I know what some of you were thinking. Hey, Costa, you crush it so hard. Thank you. OK, why aren't you on this list? Well, look, I'm a male feminist. Well, look, I'm a male feminist.
Starting point is 00:14:33 the reason you don't see me on this list. thiiiii want to be in any list. It doesn't include any women. Let's be honest. Yeah. Yes. Yes. Yes. There should be a woman on this list, okay? Especially a hot blonde chick with big boobs.

Starting point is 00:15:18 You're welcome, everybody. Michael Costa, everybody. I don't think this is real financial advice, but when we come back, we're going to learn about black animators, we don't go away. Welcome back to the Daily Show. Did you know that it's legal to talk about Black History even when it's not Black History Month? Yeah, it is. So, to learn about some forgotten moments of Black History, we turn now to Roywood Jr.
Starting point is 00:16:03 With another episode of black history. We turn now to Roywood Jr. with another episode of CP Time. Welcome to CP Time. The only show is for the culture. Ms. Blattold me, you're not going to let me see my kids, but I'm not going to sing you no much. Ah, welcome to CP Time. The only show is for the culture. Today, we will be discussing black animators. We're in a golden age of black animation right now, with animators such as Aaron Magruder of the Boondocks,
Starting point is 00:16:31 or Peter Ramsey, who won an Oscar for that movie about that teenage black boy, that was Spider-Man. I'll tell you what, if I had jumping powers, I wouldn't be doing no favors around the neighborhood, murders for free. I'd be making millions in the NBA. Shoot a three point on me if you won't, Steph Curry, I'll snatch it out the air. Turnover. But before those animators, there were pioneers who led the way in animation. Black pioneers like Zelda, Jackie Orms.
Starting point is 00:17:05 She created four comic strips, the most iconic being Patty Joe and Ginger, which starred two black sisters. They were the Venus and Serena Williams of their time, except for not playing tennis and not being real. So I suppose they were nothing like Venus and Serena. But aside from that, they were. This cartoon was so popular, it led to the creation of the first African-American doll
Starting point is 00:17:33 based on a comic character. And it was the only doll with the face that said, I know these white girls about to toucest my hair. The next black animator we want to celebrate is Floyd Norman. He was hired by Walt Disney Studios after only two years in art school. And he worked on Sleeping Beauty, 101 Dalmatians, the Sword in the Stone and Mary Poppins. Basically, if your mother ever bought you one of those fancy Disney VHS tapes, odds are Floyd Norman Drew it. And you'd think he was busy enough working on those fancy Disney VHS tapes, odds are Floyd Norman drew it.
Starting point is 00:18:05 And you'd think he was busy enough working on those movies, but no. Floyd was also finding time to post gag drawings all over the Walt Disney campus. These drawings poke fun at company executives. When Walt Disney himself saw them, he was so impressed that he handpicked Norman to work on the jungle book. You know how good you got to be at your job where roasting your boss gets you a promotion? Usually only happens on while and out. Norman left Disney to co-create the company, Vignette Films, which is where he made his biggest contribution to the culture, creating the original opening credits for Soul
Starting point is 00:18:46 Train. It looks like if Thomas the Tank Engine did asset and had a couple shots of Hennessy. Finally, we must mention Bruce W. Smith, who directed the 1992 cult classic, Bebebeys Kids. Wait a minute. This guy looks familiar. Look, can I... Stow my look. I have to talk to my lawyers about that. Anyway, Smith was instrumental in animating movies like Who Frame Roger Rabbit, Tarzan, a goofy movie. And not only did he create the Proud family, which was Disney's first animated show with a black female lead,
Starting point is 00:19:26 he was also a supervising animator on Disney's The Princess and the Frog, which featured the studio's first black princess. And yes, I know she was immediately turned into a frog, but it was still a better royal experience than the one Megan Marco had. His crowning moment was co-directing the movie Hair Love, and I'm very happy that this story got told, because it introduced America to every black father's worst nightmare, having to style your daughter's hair. One time I tried, I messed up my daughter's hair so bad, she got a restrain an order against me.
Starting point is 00:20:04 I'm legally not allowed within 50 feet of her their their their their the I tried, I messed up my daughter's hair so bad, she got a restraint on order against me. I'm legally not allowed within 50 feet of her edges at all times. So there you have it. Some of history's most inspiring black animators. In fact, it inspired me so much that I commissioned a group of top animators to turn me into my unique animated form. Let's see how they did. I knew it. I knew the guy from Babe's kid stole my look.
Starting point is 00:20:32 Or did I steal his look? Well, that's all the time we have for today. I'm Roywood Junior, and this has been CP time. And remember, for the culture. But seriously, am I a rip off of the guy from Be ba-ba-ba' to be to be to be to be honest-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-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'a'a'a'a'a'a'a'a' been CP time. And remember, we're full of culture. But seriously, am I a rip off of the guy from Bebeys' kid to be honest with me? That'll look like Robin Harris. Thank you so much for that Roy. All right, stay tuned because when we come back, stand-up comedian, the very funny Sam Maroo
Starting point is 00:20:58 will be joining me on the show. You don't want to the Daily Show. My guest tonight is a comedian. He's an actor and he's a co-host of the sports podcast, Games with Names. He's here to talk about his groundbreaking new Netflix stand-up special Sam Murill, same time tomorrow. Please welcome Sam Maril! Samuril! Let's go down. That's it today. Thank you.

I mean, you usually have someone arguing before the Human Rights Council, and now you have me, uh, a guy who's arguing at the front desk in my hotel to return my muscle relaxers that they took, so. I think it's perfectly fit to him.
Starting point is 00:22:37 Yeah, no. You're like, you saw in the clip, you you talk about everything, you know, for those who don't know Sam, you're going to know him, but let's start with this part of the story, which I really love. For a long time, comedy has been the funniest sort of makes it up, the funniest makes it up, the funny. Then social media came in, things started changing. And then it was almost like inside out. People were like, who's famous will make them a comedian. A lot of comed, th is is is is is is is is is is is is is like, the the the the the thian is like, thian is like, the thian is like, the the thii is like, their is like, their is like, their is like, their is like, their comedy, their comedy, thi. their comedy is like, their comedy, their comedy, their comedy, their comedy, their comedy, their comedy, their comedy, their comedy, their comedy, their their their the funniest, the funniest, the funniest, the funniest, the funniest, the funniest, the funniest, the funniest, the funniest, the funniest, the funniest, the funniest, the funniest, the funniest, the funniest, the funniest, the funniest, the the the funniest, the funniest, the the funniest, thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. the funniest the funniestto take your special. You couldn't get anybody to put you on TV. You put it out yourself. You got like 11 million views, one of the most watched specials on YouTube ever.
Starting point is 00:23:11 Yeah. And then Netflix was like, all right, Sam, we need to do a deal. Yeah, Netflix, I think their stock was sinking. And I feel like I got in the lifeboat right as the Titanic started going down. I was like, I'm in, dude. Let's do it. But they love you. No, I'm honored. It's awesome. It's crazy.
Starting point is 00:23:28 Yeah, you put it on YouTube. You don't think anyone was going to watch it. I mean, I remember shopping it for HBO and comics. So yeah, I got very lucky in that way, you know. I don't think you got, I think the audience has got lucky because you're special, no, I honestly mean this, because like your special, everyone has commented on it in different ways. It's like, it's, I think it's part of the reason
Starting point is 00:23:58 so many comics have always loved you. you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, th. th. th. th. thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, th.

Like, you know, people are like, oh, he does jokes about the transgender community and you don't know which way it's going to go. And you had, I saw your name trending online. I was like, oh shit. Yeah, me too. Yeah. And it was the trans community going, trans people. Oh, that terrified me. Why? Because they love me today. I'm like, and they're like, he's our guy. I'm like, don't make me your guy.
Starting point is 00:24:28 You love me today. You're gonna hate me tomorrow. I don't know. Because it's like what you say, you just kind of follow the joke. I don't want to hurt to hurt to hurt to hurt to hurt to hurt to hurt to hurt to hurt to hurt to hurt to hurt to hurt to hurt to hurt to hurt to hurt to hurt to hurt to hurt to hurt to hurt to hurt. So with that joke for me was like, you know, a guy said something about trans, he goes, it was about a friend who said, you know, I fully support trans people. I mean, I'll play along. I was like, I don't think that's what they're going for. I don't think you're scoring a lot of points to walking up to a trans person.
Starting point is 00:24:56 Like, sure. Sure. If you say so, see how uncomfortable this whole crowd was about me even going into that? They were like, where the fuck is he going with this joke? And then it was okay, right? You see, this is what I love. This is what, you've got to, this, you've got to love, you've got to love. This is what, you've got to, you've. And I was like, you gotta go watch Sammer, you gotta go watch Sam. And people are like, first of all,
Starting point is 00:25:25 half of South Africa is like, where is this? Like, sir, it's in New York. I should have told you that it's in New York. But what I loved was the response I got from people afterwards. It's exactly what comedy needs. Like you keep people on their toes, you know, it's not like you're safe for the sake of being safe. It seems like you're having fun. I love, I love stand up.
Starting point is 00:25:51 I mean, that's the thing is like, I'm, you know, some of these cities, you're like, I'm on the to hurt anybody. Sometimes people get hurt, but that could happen. I have a friend Ryan Hamilton who's got a joke about hot air balloons and someone was like, that's offensive. I was like, well that's on you, I think. I mean, you're upset by hot air balloons? Anything can offend someone, but that's on them. I mean, sometimes they try to say like, well, you shouldn't joke about it. thrown. I mean, that's a their. the the thiiiiiiiiiiiii. that's that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that. thin. thin. tho. that's, that's, thoomomomoomoomorrow. that's, thoomoomoomoomoomoomoomoomoomoomoom. 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 tho. tho. tho. tho. thoooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo. I. I's the thing I've noticed. Yeah. That's the thing I always say to people is I go, a lot of people don't realize that every joke is funny until you find it personally. Like everybody laughs. Everyone laughs, laughs, laughs, laughs, laughs, laughs, and then they'll be like, nah, that you went too far. It's like, what about the other jokes? They're like, well, those were cool because they weren't about me or anything that. that. that. that. that. that. that. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. th. th. thi. thi. thi thi th th th that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that th th th th th th th th th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. Every th. Every th. Every th. Every th. Every th. Every the the the the the the the the the thi the the the thi the thi thi the thi thi the the thi thi. the thi until that point, people are generally fine. Yeah, I think, and I think most people are smart enough to tell the difference between, you know, good intent and intent. Yes.
Starting point is 00:26:49 We've all gotten mad at a person, and that's not funny. You lose. When you become too emotionally attached to something, you're not funny anymore. You need the detachment. Well, but I think the comedy is connected. I's the comedy, I's the comedy, I the comedy, I thi. I think the comedy is connected to the detachment. Yeah, exactly. I remember when my grandmother passed away, we were in this weird space.
Starting point is 00:27:07 We were like, I was crying the whole week. Everyone is like discussing the family. What are we going to do? What are we not going to do? And there would always be these moments where, like a joke comes up. You know what I'm talking about as a comedian. You see you you see, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you see, you see, you see, you see, you see, you see, you see, you see, you see, you see, you see, you see, you see, you see, you see, you see, you see, you see, you see, you see, you 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, th. th. th. th. th. thi, thi, thi, thi, thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi,. Because it's family, I could say it. I think that's part of it. That's part of it.
Starting point is 00:27:29 You know, why do you think it is that you've really been able to keep the context of your comedy? A lot of comedy, I think, has been hurt by the lack of context. When we're in a room, everyone here gets it. We know that we don't really feel certain ways it's a joke. With social media it became someone who wasn't at the show, who didn't get the context, who didn't know the beginning of the story, they get angry and this didn't happen to you, it just happens in comedy, but for some reason, I don't know, you've managed to preserve that context. Do it's like a comedy club where people are just opening the door and they come in at the wrong time.
Starting point is 00:28:07 They just open the door and they're like, what was that? They're like, that's not when you were supposed to enter. So it makes me mad. So, it makes me mad. Look, here's a package deal. It's a package deal. I think, I think you're getting one huge part of the package,
Starting point is 00:28:31 which is people loving you. Your Netflix is just like received to acclaims. Obviously, on YouTube. Yeah I have a whiskey. Just explain this to me how do you? Bodega cat whiskey at bodega cat whiskey dot com. It's a real thing. Explain this to what do you mean you like? Wadneau? Like, when they said the Sam has a whiskey? I was like I thought that you just, you know, they just have a whiskey. Yeah, well I had that that that that that. Yeah, but that. Yeah, but that. Yeah, but I. Yeah, I. Yeah, I that, I that, I that, I that, I that, I that, I that, I that, I that, I that, I that, but, I'd that, but, I'd, but, I'd, I'd, I'd, I'd that, but, but, but, but, but, but, but I'd they. Yeah, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I'd, I'd, I'd, the. Yeah, I'd, the. Yeah, the. Yeah, the. Yeah, the. Yeah, the. Yeah, the. Yeah, the. Yeah, the. Yeah, the. Yeah, the. Yeah, the, the. Yeah, explain, the. Yeah, the. Yeah, explain, the. Yeah, explain, the. Yeah, but, explain, explain, but, I, I, I'd, I'd be honest, I got into comedy. I didn't get into it because I was like a go-getter, you know, my brother and sister are lawyers are very smart. I was the black sheep, you know, I was like, oh, open bar, I'm in. That's all I needed.
Starting point is 00:29:11 And then I was like, oh, I can make my own whiskey. So we got a whiskey. So we got a whiskey. He didn't get it now, so. Bodega Cat Whiskey. All I say is congratulations. You one of the nicest, funniest comedians I've ever met. I wish you all the best. Thank you, brother. Up some of the doubt, angry, nothing. Thank you.
