Hey everybody, John Stewart here. I am here to tell you about my new podcast, the weekly show. It's going to be coming out every Thursday. So exciting. You'll be saying to yourself, TGID. Thank God it's Thursday. We're going to be talking about all the things that hopefully obsess you in the same way that they obsess me. The election. Economics. Earnings calls. What are they talking about on these earnings calls? We're going to be talking about ingredient to bread ratio on sandwiches. And I know that I listed that fourth, but in importance it's probably second. I know you have a lot of options as far as podcasts go, but how many of them come out on Thursday?

I mean, talk about innovative. Listen to the weekly show with John Stewart, wherever you get your podcast. You're listening to Comedy Central. From the most trusted journalists at Comedy Central, it's America's only sorts for news. This is the daily show with your host Jordan Clevers. We got so much to talk about tonight. Welcome to the nailing job George Clepper. We got so much to talk about tonight. Lewis Black takes on the cyber truck. RFK Jr.

Who's Black's here? RK Jr. has something he just can't get out of his head and Christie Nomes hopes of becoming VP have been taken out to the gravel pit and shots. Plus, Matt Damon joins us tonight. Not a bad show, huh? First, let's catch up on all the latest in the presidential race with another installment of Indecision 2024. Let's kick things off with the huge trial that threatens to destroy a politician's career.

Not Trump's trial, he'll get off Scott Free. No. I'm talking about public opinion versus Christy Knoam. South Dakota governor and big fan of the last two minutes of old Yeller. The mainstream liberal media has been coming at her for days just because her new memoir has a little story in it about executing a puppy. So, now she's turning to her base on conservative media to find some support. But it turns out that even they are having a hard time with this. What happens if you are debating Kamala Harris and she says, well wait a second, you shot your dog? I never tell anybody about coastal conversations with the dog story come up in a conversation? I talked to President Trump all the tha tha tha tha tha thi thi thi th th thi th th th thi th th thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thu thi thi thi thi tho tho tho tho thi thu- tho 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 th. th. th. th. th. th. th. thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi the the the the the theeeeeee their their thea thea thea thea thea thea thuoooooooo to to t I never tell anybody about coastal conversations.

Did the dog story come up in a conversation with Trump? I talked to President Trump all the time. About the dog? About a lot of things. Governor, if you asked me a month ago, who's at the top of the list to run with Donald Trump, I would have said your name. If you asked me that same question this morning, I don't even even even even even even even even even even even even even even even even even even even even even even even then think think think think think think thin thin th on the list. Not on the VP list, not on the cabinet list, not even on Craig's list. I will say, for the past few years I have been wondering how far is too far for the right-wing manga crowd.

And now we know, it's shooting your dog in a gravel pit. That is not acceptable until Trump does it, then every Republican has to shoot their dog just to stay in the party. So, kudos right-wing media for putting your foot down against killing dogs. You can hold your head up high and go back to your regularly scheduled segment, why don't we toss the migrant kids into the Grand Canyon? Check it's a very compelling segment. Every Wednesday at nine. But not everyone in conservative media had their knives out for KristiNo. In the bowels of Newsmax, Eric

Voling tried his best to throw her a lifeline. Governor, I've also written a couple of books, and I know how the process works. You write some chapters. You don't write the whole book at once, you write a chapter or two. You send it to the editors, and they edit. They read it. They add. They subtract. And here's my question, the editor, the editor, the editor, the editor, the editor. The editor, the editor.

The editor, they, the book! She wrote it! You can tell conservatives don't really believe any of their conspiracy bullshit by how casually they try to fit one into any scandal. Just say your editor was a liberal plan, Christy. Maybe your dog was trying to rig the election. Maybe your dog was DEI? Is that something? I don't fucking know, just pick one. Believe it or not. Shoot eater dog isn't the only scandal about Nome's book. There's also a story about when she met with North Korean dictator Kim Jong-un, where

she wrote, I remember when I met with North Korean dictator Kim Jong-un. Except she had to take that story out because she never actually met with North Korean dictator Kim Jong-un. And she says, the story was put in there by accident and she took it out as soon as she found out even though she wrote the book and recorded the audio book. And if you're wondering didn't she find that out when she recorded the audiobook? You're not the only one.

You said when you learned of it, you immediately took action. You recorded the whole book and the audio book. You read this whole passage out loud. Why didn't you take it out then when you read the audio book? You know, I've traveled for years. I've been involved in the world. I've met with world leaders. So you didn't realize when you recorded the audio book? When I was brought to my attention, and it was, I asked the publisher if they would remove the name

and they did. Okay, I just, but you didn't answer my question. When you posted pictures and video, you posted to your own audio. When you recorded your own audio book, I'm not asking you too. I'm asking about reporting the audience. Do you want to talk about something else today? For God's thanks, can we talk about something else? I shot a dog once. Did you hear about that? Kim Jong-un is not someone you forget meeting.

He's a madman. No one's ever like, yeah, I met Hitler. Oh wait, Adolf Hitler? I was thinking of a different one. Greg Hitler from Tampa, that's who I was thinking of. Look, I know we've been talking about this Christy Nome story for a few days in a row now, but she lied about meeting Kim Jong-un and she shot a puppy. I honestly can't think of a political story that could be crazy enough to push that out of the news cycle. In a new report, Robert Kennedy opens up about health issues from a, quote, worm that got into my brain and ate a portion of it and then died.

What? I don't know what's worse. That RFK Jr. had a worm that was eating his brain, or that his brain is so poisoned, it killed the worm. It's so wild that we've all been joking about how RFK Jr. must have brainworms, and then he actually has brain worms. It's like if the weird kid in class came back from the doctor with a note saying, actually, Kyle does have stage two turd face. Please let him get his affairs in order. Now, the Kennedy campaign is dismissing the notion that the dead worm in their candidate's brain could cause any cognitive problems. But the story actually came out because the New York Times found a 2012 deposition from Kennedy's

divorce, and which he argued that his earning power had diminished because, quote, I have cognitive problems clearly. So he gets his argument now is, no, no, the worm didn't eat the president, part of my brain. Just the part that has to give my ex-wife money. And as if this story couldn't get any weirder,

it turns out that Kennedy discovered the worm because he was getting tested for brain fog and memory loss. But doctors said it probably wasn't the worm that was causing the brain fog. It was more likely that he had severe mercury poisoning from eating too much fish. I mean, no wonder RFK cares so much about climate change. He's legally a thermometer. So how will this affect the race? Probably not much. I know the idealists out there would love to vote for a perfect candidate.

So how will this affect the race? Probably not much. I know the idealists out there would love to vote for a perfect candidate. But we live in the real world, okay. Does RFK Jr. have a worm in his brain? Sure. Trump's brain is just two possums and a squirrel. Biden's cerebrum is riddled with slugs.

Would it be nice to have a candidate whose head is full of all brain? Sure. And I'd love a puppy too, but Christy Nome shot it. Grow up. For more on the ongoing medical situation, we go live to the RFK Junior campaign with her own, Desi Lyon. Dizzy. Wow, Desi. Worms inside a presidential candidate's head is a terrifying story.

What's the mood at the campaign? Well it's understandable why people are nervous, but as it turns out, brain worms are very common, healthy even. In fact, some might say society would be better if everyone had worms in their brains. Wow, that sounds like something a worm would say. What? No, Jordan, it's me, a human woman. I just think people shouldn't be so scared about embracing a symbiotic relationship with another life form. A beautiful parasitic life form.

It's not like I'm asking you to surrender to us, surrender to us. Okay, all right, if you're gonna hold, I'm genuinely concerned, Desi, this doesn't sound like you at all. Is it, is it possible you have a brain worm? What? Gordon? No, of course not. I don't know why you may even say that. Why would you say that? You're eating soil, Desi, you're eating, you are a worm. Jordan, if you're suggesting that I was interviewing RFK Jr. and he tricked me into touching our eyeballs together so a bunch of his worms could funnel into my brain's left cortex, then you are way out of line. Way out of line. It was just a normal interview.

It wasn't weird, okay? Although you know it is weird, legs, am I right? No, this is horrible. If you're in there, Desi, you have to fight the worms. Oh my God, Jordan, stop being so paranoid. It's just me, Desi Lordic or whatever. I'll tell you what, when I get back to New York, let's just sit down together, you know, and touch eyeballs. No, absolutely not.

Don't threaten me, worm, I won't tolerate that. Oh, oh, what are you going to do? Fire me? Then you're going to have zero worms in late night. You are a worm. So what's the end game here? You build an army of worm people, brainwash everyone, and then get RFK elected? Oh my god, no, Jordan, that's insane. I mean, yes, we're building an army of worm people to take over the earth, but we're not voting for RFK. That dude's crazy. No, f-feehaw way. I got worms for brains, not shit for brains, okay? Fair enough. Warns as thian. Weren, thia thia. Weren, thia. Wormed. Wormed. Wormed. Wormed. Wormed. Wormed. Worms. Worms. Worms. Worms. Worms. Worms, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, tho, th.

Hey, everybody. John Stewart here. I am here to tell you about my new podcast. The Weekly Show. It's going to tell you about my new podcast, The Weekly Show. It's going to be coming out every Thursday. So exciting. You'll be saying to yourself, TGID. Thank God it's Thursday. We're going to be talking about all the things that hopefully obsess you in the same way that they obsess me. The election. Economics. Earnings calls. What are they they obsess me. The election, economics, earnings calls.

What are they talking about on these earnings calls? We're going to be talking about ingredient-to-bread ratio on sandwiches. And I know that I listed that fourth, but in importance it's probably second. I know you have a lot of options as far as podcasts go, but how many of them come out on Thursday? I mean, talk about innovative. Listen to the Daily Show. When a news story falls through the cracks, Lewis Black catches it for a segment we call Back in Black. Cars used to be a way to let people know you were cool. Or in the case of your friends' dad, to let people know you were having a midlife crisis.

And in recent years, one of the coolest cars you could buy was the Tesla. Not only was it a status symbol, but it was electric. It was like a compost bin that you could drink and drive in. For a while Tesla's stock price was skyrocketing but now it's sliding down like half of Mitch McConnell's face. The numbers are in and Tesla has fallen short of expectations. Elon Musk's electric vehicle company releasing its first quarter earnings showing its biggest revenue drop in over a decade in the first three months of the year, car sales dropping 8.5 percent, adding to a plummeting stock price that so far this year has gone down over

40 percent. Holy shit! Down 40 percent! The only thing worth less than Tesla stock is a fully grown adult at P Diddy's house. Stop it! That's the least of the problems. But don't worry, Tesla owner. Elon Musk has a perfectly reasonable, dumb as F. explanation for this. We should be thought of as an AI robotics company. If you value Tesla as just like a an order company, you would just have to fundamentally, it's just the wrong framework.

Sorry, Elon, my mistake. All this time I thought your company that sold cars was a car company. God, one of us must be a real fucking idiot. So Tesla's clearly in the shitter and the thing that was supposed to save it was the cyber truck, a vehicle that looks like what happens when you inbred delorians. But unfortunately, the cyber truck appears to be cyber f-****t. Tesla recalling its entire fleet of cyber trucks nearly 4,000 at all, the company says the accelerator pedal could get stuck causing the pickup to

unintentionally speed up risking a crash. Well remember it's not a car crash, it's an AI crash. Open your mind, man. Seriously, though, you recalled all of them? None were okay. Even with the bald wins, they made one good one. I'm not going to say which one. I don't want to get shot. And this is just the... I'm not going to say which one. I don't want to get shot. And this is just the... And this is just the latest problem with robo-cops' f-feeggagon, because that thing's been shit in the bed since day one. We've gotten a lot of tales of malfunction. So

for example, vehicles dying after traveling just one mile. The stainless steel vehicles are quickly showing signs of rust. One guy sharing how the drive-through car wash was too much for the Tesla Cyber Truck. He doesn't know what happened but says the owner's manual does say you should never wash your car in sunlight. A Tesla cyber truck had to be rescued by a Ford pickup after the the the Tesla the Tesla the Tesla the Tesla the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the te vehicle te vehicle the the teck. teck. teck. teck.

Oh, fancy cyber truck had to get rescued by the big tough Ford. You're the laughing stock of all the other trucks. That Ford pickup's probably banging your wife right now. You cyber cuck. Plus, what use is a truck. the the the the the the the the the tuck? the truck truck the truck truck the truck truck the truck truck truck truck truck truck truck truck truck truck truck truck truck truck truck truck truc, truck truck trucks.

And this car isn't just failing its owners, it's trying to eat them. Cyber truck users are reporting injuries from the automatic trunk. Everybody's been waiting for this, the finger. Without further ado. We're closing the cyber truck. I'm gonna put my finger flat right here and see what happens.

Ready, ready? Ready? Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, okay. Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, to. to to to to to to to. to. to. to. to, to, to, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, okay. Oh, my God. Oh, oh, oh. Okay, I can't even move my finger right now. I might have actually broken it. Good. Good. Good. Because I'm Team Cybertruck on this one. You morons had it coming.

Do us all a favor. Save us from another generation of cyber truck on this one, you morons had it coming. Do us all a favor. Save us from another generation of cyber truck drivers. Stick your balls in there, too. Luckily, I still have all my fingers, so I can deliver this message to Elon on behalf of Tesla's stockholders. Unlike, unlike AI, this is pretty straightforward. So is this one. Jordan? Lewis Black, everybody, when we come back, back? David.

Let's go away. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. John Stewart here. Unbelievably. the weekly. toobey.

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 an award-winning actor and producer of the critically acclaimed documentary about you two in the Bosnian war called Kiss the Future. Please welcome Matt Damon. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Nice. Nice.

All right. They react to everybody like that. This movie is, it's remarkable. A story I hadn't heard of. It follows the seizure of Sarajevo. Yeah. And sort of the art, the art community that's sprang heard of it. It follows the seizure of Sarajevo. Yeah. It's sort of the art, the art community that sprang out of it and also the ways in which you too was sort of used as a touchstone to pull people together at that time. I wonder what what compelled you to tell this story? Well it's the same reaction. Somebody told me the story. And it was so incredible. We had this great this the tha the the the same. What the same. the same. the same. the same. the same. the same. the same. the same. the same. the same. the same. the same. the same. the same. the same. the same the same the same the same the same the same the same same. the same the same the same the same the same the same the same. the same. the same. the same the same 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 tea. tea. tea.s.s.ea.s.s.ea.s.s.ea.s.s.s.ea.s.s.ea.s. the the the the the the the the me the story and it was so incredible. And we had this great director, Narnas Chichens Shine, who was from there and

who came in and talked to us about it. And I just wanted to help get the story out there and get it, because it's such a beautiful story and ultimately about light winning, triumphing over dark, you know? So, and these people in Sarajevo who were just so resilient but used music as like an act of defiance and resistance in the middle of these horrible circumstances and I just found it just a beautiful story so we just so I'm a producer on it it's like a documentary it's not my normal kind of thing to do but it just it was something I wanted to put out there for

people to see yeah I think it's remarkable in watching war torn Sarajevo and you see people who are, they talk about dodging bullets and sniper fires so they can go listen to music in a basement. How like normalcy is so so important to them, just to feel like they're connected to something. There's moments in there when it's like, I wish we could just like airlift Taylor Swif and dropped her in Ukraine just to sort of find some peace. It feels very moderate in that way. That might be the answer to everything actually. Yeah. We could... We...

Just... Yeah. Yeah. Yeah, absolutely. But it is that, it is that, you know, with the movie really covers all of these lives of these Sarajevans who really came to that conclusion, reflecting on life and what is life really. And actually it was worth risking their lives to go to gather so that they could listen to music or play music or just be together.

And that bonded them and strengthen their community and that resilience. And, you know, it's, as Bono said in that little clip there, it was carrying on with their lives was a way of saying, you know, you're not beating us, you're not defeating, you will not take our lives from us. You can kill me, but you still won't take this from me. There's a great photo in there that we have of one of these punk rock drum-dummers who lost, who lost, who lost, who lost, who lost, who lost, who lost, who lost, who lost, who lost, who lost, who lost, who lost, who lost, who lost, who lost, who lost, who lost, who lost his hand on the front lines and he and he there's a picture of him with his drumstick duct taped to his to his arm yeah in place of where you know where his hand was and he's just and he's playing like death metal like come on you know like you're not going to take music away

for me you know and and it's just a beautiful the stories are really incredible and and the people that we we got a lot of the people that we we we that we. we. we. we. we. we. that we. that we. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the their their their their their their their their their their their their their the the the the the th. the th. the the the the the th. th. th. the the th. the th. the the th. th. th. th. th. the th. th. the the th. the the th. the the the the the the th. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. it's just a beautiful, the stories are really incredible, and the people that we got a lot of footage from the Sarajevans who were there. And so, you know, there's a wedding in the middle of, like all these real moments that were really happening amidst this siege. I think they sort of articulate that with the wedding, the scene in the wedding, and the wedding, and tha, and tha, and tha, and tha, and tha, and tha, and tho, and tho, and tho, and the tho, and tho, and the the tho, and the tho, and tho, and tho, and tho, and the, the the thease, and tho, and tho, and thoomomombushen, and tho, and tho, and, tho, thi, thi, thi, thi, the the the the, the the, the, the, the, the, the the, the the the the the the the the the the the the, and, and, the the, the the the the, the, thean, thean, thean, and, thean, thean, and, thean, thean, thean, thean, thean, thean, thean, theanthe wedding, the scene in the wedding, under all this chaos. And again, it's hard to watch this and not see the images you're seen on news as well, but then to see people go through a wedding, walking through war-torn areas and just finding those moments of joy and you really see joy as an act of resistance in those moments. Exactly. Exactly. This movie also follows, again, this U-2 concert, their, and, and, and, and, their, their, their, their, th.S.S.S.S.S.S.S.S.S.S.S.S.S.S., and, th.S.S., and, th.S.S.S.S., thi. And, to, to, to, to, their, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, to, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their.S.S.S. And, their. And, their. And, to. And, to. And, toe. And, toe. And, toe. And, toe. We. We's. We're, toe. And, toe. And, to. And, to. And, to. And, to. And, to, again, this U-2 concert in Sarajevo and sort of the conversation around you two a little bit.

And they're sort of looked at in some ways as a way that art can shine through. It can find a beacon for people a way out. I'm curious as an artist yourself. What were touchstones for you? Clearly you didn't grow up and war-torn Boston for my understanding. But I'm wondering as an artist and a creator like finding those touchstones that make you feel connected to something larger. What do you see when you watch and produce a film like that? Well I feel look I mean I was I was in Australia last year

looking at cave art that was 18,000 years old and just that very human impulse that we have to to tell stories to each other and it's a way to kind to kind to kind to kind to kind to kind to kind to kind to kind to kind to kind to kind to kind to kind to kind to kind to kind to kind to kind to kind to kind to kind to kind to kind to kind to kind to to to to to to to to to to to thi to to to tho tho tho tho thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi th. th. th. thi th. th th thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the thi. thi. thi. to to thee. to to to to to to to to to they. to they. they. their theeateate. thoi. the just that very human impulse that we have to to tell stories to each other and it's a way to kind of tell somebody another perspective right and if you and if you know for filmmaking if you can put people in other people's shoes that builds empathy and compassion and and as you you know Ed says in that yeah there are there really are these these legitimate the same 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 the the to the to to to to to to to the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the 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 there are, there really are these legitimate dark forces that are trying to divide us. And you see that a lot in politics, you see that a lot, and what art and music and film does, hopefully, is, it's a bulwark against that and an attempt to kind of bridge those divides

and keep these communities together. Do you feel attention to somebody as a creator and a producer like we're in such partisan time such political times and selling political ideas is not the not the easiest sell as it used to be people don't want to go near that as far as producing things that might have a larger political agenda, but you also are balancing having a platform and such a difficult time. Like what do you see as you are moving forward and making things? How do you see the art that you want to produce and to be a part of? Well I think you want, you know, whatever it is whatever it is you're making, your heart has to be to be to be to be to be to be to be, to be, to be, the, to be, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, th, thi, the, the, thi, the, tho, 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, together, together, is, together, together, is, together, thoooomorrow, is, is, they, the, the, the, is, the, the has to be in it. You have to feel like it's, look,

even if it's a movie that isn't overtly political, if it's about building understanding about the way, you know, if you can watch a movie that has no relation to your life and be affected by the characters, then that's one little small bit of evolution, you know, and we're bombarded by all of the, you know, I mean, you're forced to sit through it because you've got to write jokes about it, but I mean, it really is kind of an assault on your senses and then the, and it's constantly telling

you that that we're different and we're divided and we're split and I think movies like this and and and other films can can kind of tols on that idea.... 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's thi. You're thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. You th. You th. You th. You th. You th. You th. You th. You th. You th. You th. You th. You're th. th. th. I the. the. to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to the. the. the. you're the. the. the. th movies like this and other films can kind of call bullshit on that idea. Say we're actually a lot closer than we think, or then we're told. Yeah. I mean, there's like, there's a final quote in this movie that's a poignant one. They wonder whether we need that concert more today than we needed it in 97. Yeah, that was one of the Sarajevans said that, which was really, and that, and that, and that, and that, and that, and that, and that, and that, and that, and that, and that, and that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's why, and 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 we need that concert more today than we needed it in 97. Yeah, that was one of the Sarajevans said that, which was really, and that's why Nanad decided to close the movie with it, because it is, you do see a lot of parallels to, all over the world to what was happening there. And so again, again, it's a, I mean, it ultimately is really an uplifting movie because it's beautiful to watch, you know,

these people and what they did and how they overcame their situation. The band and what, you know, incidentally, the band was their one, kind of, they were reluctant at first just because they didn't want to make a U2 movie. They said, no, no, no, no, we'reto put the Sariavens in the center of this and that's when they, so they gave us all of this footage. And the concert at the end that they play is, it was the first time that 50,000 people gathered and they were on different sides of this conflict and they gathered and they gathered and just listened to music together. And so that's the the the the movie the movie the movie the movie the movie the movie the movie the movie the movie the movie the movie the movie the movie the movie the movie the movie the movie the movie the movie the movie the movie the movie the movie the movie the movie the movie the movie the movie the movie the movie the movie the movie the movie is the movie is the movie is the movie the movie the movie. And the movie. And the movie, the movie, the movie, 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 movie. And the movie. And the movie. And the movie. And the movie. And the movie is the movie is the movie is c. I c. And the movie is con.couc. And the movie is conc.c.c.c. And the movie is conc.c.c. And the movie is conc. And the movie is conc. And the movie is conc. And the Future because Bono when he started this concert he grabbed the microphone and he said, fuck the past, kiss the future and so that's why we call

the movie Kiss the Future because that was the... Yeah. What's a beautiful movie? Thanks. Knew to get more now than before. Kiss the Future is now available to stream exclusively on Paramount Plus. Matt Damon. Right back, Matt, right back. Thank you. Not really right, that's right. Thank you.
