Starting point is 00:00:00 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?
Starting point is 00:00:50 I mean, talk about innovative. Listen to the weekly show with John Stewart, wherever you get your podcast. You're listening to Comedy Central. You're listening to Comedy Central. And, you know. Welcome to the Jail, the show. I'm your host, Dysus Nice. And, thank you. Let's hear it?
Starting point is 00:01:20 You're it? And for those of you at home who might be confused, I'm not Charlemagne. I'm the other black guy. Oh, that's how f-fied up, in which case I am Charlemagne. We've got a great show for you tonight, so let's get into some headlines. Republicans are trying to figure out a new speaker of the House. And surprise, surprise. Even Republicans don't like other Republicans.
Starting point is 00:01:48 On Friday, House Republicans dropped Jim Jordan of Ohio as the nominee in a secret ballot after his three failed attempts to get elected. He's out. At least nine Republicans are now vying to be the Speaker of the House, setting the stage for a new candidate forum tomorrow. Among the contenders, Byron Donalds of Florida, retired Marine Corps Lieutenant General Jack Bergman of Michigan, a majority whip Tom Emmer of Minnesota, who's backed by ousted Speaker Kevin McCarthy.
Starting point is 00:02:19 That's right, they got nine Republicans running for Speaker now. I'm gonna be honest, I kind kinda want to root for Byron. I feel like he might be my guy. I mean, no particular reason. But for real though, look at this group of contenders. It looks like someone put a bottle of Hershey syrup in the mayonnaise aisle. Yo, all these white dudes look the same. In fact, three of them are the same guy and you didn't even notice.
Starting point is 00:02:48 That's how similar they all are. If you ask me, Byroix could win this thing easy. All he has to do is say, vote for me and I'll let you say it. Yeah, you know what I'm talking about. Oh Oh I'm kidding. You know they already say it. Time for some financial news. The Daily Show is a serious show. I know some people expect me to come on here and do my thing where I just roast people by that I have beef with but this is a serious show. This is a serious chair, serious desk and now I'm going to give you some important financial news. So important, I have to put on my spectacles. I report on the serious financial news.
Starting point is 00:03:31 Popular radio host, DJ Envy, now distancing himself from an alleged multi-million dollar fraud scheme. Not DJ Envious. That was never on my radar. Go on. Federal agents arresting his longtime friend and one-time business partner Caesar Pina on charges of wire fraud, accusing him of a Ponzi-like real estate scheme that allegedly defrauded investors out of millions. Pena often appeared on the breakfast club, a top 20 I-I-Heart
Starting point is 00:04:01 radio show with millions of listeners and YouTube subscribers to promote real estate investment. He also held seminars and created YouTube videos with DJ Envy. DJ Envy has not been charged in connection with the case, but many of the alleged victims say they were influenced by his celebrity status. Mm-hmm, mm-hmm. Wow, DJ Envy is in trouble for real estate fraud. What a serious story. It's definitely not funny. There's certainly nothing personal that makes it funny to me. It's not like Rashon accosted me on the radio for making a little joke about him and his wife,
Starting point is 00:04:34 which I only thought we were friends. It's not like he called me Dickhead and then got so mad he locked himself in the studio for the rest of the show and then then then then then then then then then the building then the building then the building then the building the building the building the building the building the building th the building th th th th th th th the the thoed thoed tho tho ththen told the building security that was a threat. But even if that happened, that's all in the past. I'm just reading the news. Listen. And apparently the news is DJMV might go to jail for an alleged Ponzi scheme flipping houses in New Jersey. That's not hilarious. It's tragic because he's just a DJ. I mean there's no way he could have known he might have been involved in a Ponzi scheme, right? When I first got into real estate I called three people. I called Clue. I called Fabulous. I called Joe Button. Joe Button told me it was a
Starting point is 00:05:16 Ponzi scheme and I was gonna go to jail. That clip is not funny. We are not laughing at this. We're also not asking who's a dickhead now. I'm being serious. Look at these spectacles. This could have happened to anybody. Whenever I'm doing financial transactions, I also get advice from Joe Button, Fabulous, and DJ Klu. Everybody knows are the Lehman Brothers of Hip Hop. And look, I don't want envy to go to prison.
Starting point is 00:05:40 I mean, imagine getting locked up for one of the coini the cornest cornes This is a property brothers-ass crime. Forget the bloods, he's going to have to join the house hunters. But again, I'm just doing the news, and the news is that DJ envies a DJ, a man who turns tables, and now, the tables have turned. the tables have things off with big news about the speaker race in Congress. After spending three weeks on the dating scene, Republicans are finally swiping right, far right. Breaking news out of Washington, House lawmakers finally elected the next speaker of the house. After 22 days, 14 candidates and four nominees, House Republicans united to elect
Starting point is 00:06:23 Congressman Mike Johnson of Louisiana, the new Speaker of the House. Republicans finally named conservative Congressman Mike Johnson. And it's about time. That's right. America's new Speaker of the House is some dude named Mike Johnson. I'll be honest, that sounds like the name you give a hotel when you're checking in after having an affair. Hey, uh, my name is a, uh, my name is a, uh, my, my, the, the, the, conservative, the, the, the, conservative, conservative, the, the, conservative, the, the, conservative, conservative, the, conservative, the, conservative, the, conservative, conservative, conservative, conservative, the, conservative, conservative, the, conservative, conservative, conservative, the, conservative, conservative, uh, uh, uh, uh, conservative, conservative, conservative, conservative, conservative, conservative, conservative, uh, conservative conservative, conservative conservative conservative, conservative, conservative, conservative, conservative, conservative, conservative, conservative, conservative, conservative, conservative, conservative, 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. the the thi. thi. thi. thi. the thi. the the the, the, the, that sounds like the name you give a hotel when you're checking in after having an affair.
Starting point is 00:06:45 Hey, my name is Mike Johnson. You went rooms by the hour? Now if you don't know Mike Johnson, don't worry. Nobody else does. But what we do know is that he wants nationwide limits on abortion. He wants to criminalize gay sex. And he even wants to ban reggaeton. All right, I'm lying on the last one.
Starting point is 00:07:19 But that seems like this vibe because it comes off as a dick. And the one other thing people know about this dude. He was one of the main guys trying to steal the election for Donald Trump. But apparently he doesn't want to talk about that anymore. Johnson is a staunch Trump ally who recruited Republicans to sign on to efforts to overturn the 2020 election. I asked him if he stands by that vote. Mr. Johnson, you helped me the efforts to overturn the 2020 election results. All right, someone come get their job. So at first when I saw that reaction, I was like, damn, that was a lot. then I learned the reporter who asked the question.
Starting point is 00:08:01 So, at first when I saw that reaction, I was like, damn, that was a lot. But then I learned the reporter who asked the question was black. That in order to make a little more sense. Especially when I found out the shut up lady is named Virginia, and she represents North Carolina. That's a lot of Southern heritage right there. I bet you she was born in some small town named Plantationville or something.
Starting point is 00:08:30 Where was she born? Oh. Oh. Oh, shit. Oh, she from the BX? Hmm. BX so X? Hmm. Wow. BX all day? Wait.
Starting point is 00:08:47 Yo, I remember her. Yo, she used to be on the block. That's Jenny from 149, yo! We went to high school together. She got an oldest shit. Oh, man, I see you at the reunion, though. Let's kick things off with the Supreme Court Justice, who's accepted more gifts thgifts gifts Kids. Clarence Thomas! So every day
Starting point is 00:09:10 there's a new story about Thomas accepting lavish gifts from his rich ass friends and not reporting any of it. And now Thomas is in more hot water because someone bought him a jacuzzi. I'm just kidding. It was an RV. Clarence Thomas has been an RV evangelist for decades. Traveling the country in a 40-foot luxury motor coach that he purchased in 1999 after borrowing more than a quarter of a million dollars from a wealthy friend. But a new report from Democrats on the Senate Finance Committee, alleges Thomas's friend forgave a substantial amount of that
Starting point is 00:09:45 massive loan. And nine years later, his friend forgave all the debt. The IRS considers debt forgiveness as a form of income, but Thomas never reported it on his financial disclosure forms, a likely violation of federal ethics rules. And he never reported it on his tax returns, potentially owing money to the IRS. His longtime friend Anthony Welters, who loaned him that money. He is defending this arrangement, saying, quote, I loaned a friend money. We've all been on one side of the other of that equation.
Starting point is 00:10:16 Hmm? No, we have not. I've never had a friend just give me, I don't know, $250,000? Hell, last week I bummed a cigarette from my guy Tommy. He sent me a Venmo request. I do have a question for Clarence's rich friend. Um, you want hang some time? Yo, let's catch a Knicks game. I got court-sized seats to be paid for them.
Starting point is 00:10:46 But Loki, I'm disappointed in Clarence. If you're going to take a bribe, it should be extravagant, like gold bars and diamonds. This is depressing. You better end abortion because you want someone else to let you drive a bus? Also they said that driving RV is Clarence Thomas' favorite thing in the world. Look at my man's face. This is what Clarence Thomas looks like when he's happy. I'm enjoying this. Hooray.
Starting point is 00:11:14 Hey, everybody, John Stewart here. I am here to tell you about my new podcast. 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 gonna be talking about all the things that hopefully obsess you in the same way that they obsess me, the election, economics, earnings calls.
Starting point is 00:11:42 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. Now, if you know anything about me, I am a real New Yorker.
Starting point is 00:12:15 So I hit the street to find out. Now if you know anything about me, I am a real New Yorker. But I don't know if any of y'all are real New Yorkers. So I hit the street to find out. Yeah, what up. It's your boy, Jesus Nice. We're here in New York City talking to New Yorkers about what makes them a real New Yorker. We're going to find out if it's about being born here versus the experience you had here. You consider yourself a real New Yorker? Definitely, yes. Were you born here? I was born here. Four Green, Brooklyn, Brooklyn Hospital.

Starting point is 00:13:08 I mean, even this itself is an experience I would consider, yeah. What do you feel is the most New York thing you've ever seen? Probably when Jay-Ze brok. Burrow has the worst guys? The worst guys? I would say the Bronx. How do you catch the street? What's wrong with the Bronx? I just feel like the Bronx is dirty, no offense?

Starting point is 00:16:31 My guest tonight represents New York's 14th congressional district which includes parts of the Brogues and Queens. Please welcome Congresswoman Alexandria, Casio Cortez. AOT! Listen, A-O-T. Listen, A-O-T? Always good to see you. Always good to see a Bronx site. You can't just do that formal introduction. Yes, exactly.
Starting point is 00:16:57 How you been? I've been good. I mean, it's been a little, you know, crazy. It's been a while time in Congress. What's it what I've been like for you? Because I see you on social media and you can just be like, hey, it's a sunny day and people were like, I hate you. You know, it's not that different than the six train at midnight summertime.
Starting point is 00:17:17 Got you. So, you know, you get that practices. But you still love what you th you th you tha???. tha. tha. tha. tha. tha, tha, tho. tho. tho. tho. tho. tho. tho. tho. tho. tho. tho. tho. tho. tho. tho. that is tho. tho. tho. tho. tho. tho. tho. tho. tho. tho. It's th. It's th. It's th. It's th. It's th. It's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, th. th. It's th. It's th. It's th. It's th. It's tho. It's thi. It's thi. It's thi. It's thi. It's the. It's thea. And, thea. And, thea. And, thoooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo. And,that practice. Right, but you still love what you do? I do. In fact, I think I love it now more than ever. OK, I have to ask you about the House Speaker debacle. Yes. From the outside, I have no idea what's going in. Could you just really quickly explain it? So Republicans kicked out their speaker. And they're all like fighting with each other about it.
Starting point is 00:17:49 Got you. Now for a local in the Bronx, how does this affect them? So in terms of how this affects the Bronx, we've got a clock ticking on a government shutdown. And if this gets us to a point of a government shutdown, I mean, that's real, right? That's when we start seeing TSA and airports get affected. That's when people could potentially miss their checks. So this is something that's really important for everybody to make sure that we get that pressure on. But also we need to make sure that we don't have people like Jim Jordan or extremists because
Starting point is 00:18:20 whoever takes over the house could potentially put our democracy in danger when it comes to certifying or recertifying an election and so on. Got you. Now, you know, people say Congress doesn't really get anything done right now because of the shutdown. But what were you guys getting done before? Because I know you've been doing something. Okay. That's an excellent question. I will say from when Republicans took over to now, they provided a lot of meme content.
Starting point is 00:18:49 Yes. But before that, when Democrats were in the majority, we passed the largest climate package in American history. We capped insulin at $35 for people. We capped insulin at $35 for people. We made sure that when the pandemic went through, we started the program of child tax credits. Now we had some folks in the Senate shut down.
Starting point is 00:19:18 But when we take back the Senate, we want to make sure that we reestablish and expand those programs back again too. So, we're able to do some things there on the struggle bus a little bit. She's like, put some respect on my name, I feel you. All right, so we just did a piece about the people running for House Speaker. Who are you voting for? None of them. I can tell you. I'll be casting my vote for Hakeem Jeffries. So, stop for her today.
Starting point is 00:19:45 All right. So, you know, shout out to my parents, all the parents, immigrants are the lifeblood of New York City. Our mayor, Eric Adams, he said we can't handle anymore in here. You represent one of the most diverse districts in Congress. What can be done at a federal level to help? Well, here's the thing is that I think whether from from all parts of the political spectrum one of
Starting point is 00:20:11 the biggest issues that we have when it comes to immigration is the fact that we have an undocumented population. Now you can fix that by trying to build a wall or you can fix that by trying to document people and create a path to citizenship. And we'll have folks that might say look at these systems, you know that our shelter system has weight and things like that, but one of the reasons that our public systems experience weight is because people don't have a documented and reliable path to work and sustain themselves. Just like all of our ancestors did and our grandparents and great-grandparents. You know I always love when people talk about like, oh well you know my great-grandfather came and he wrote his name wrong on a book
Starting point is 00:21:00 and now he's a citizen. And like can we put two and two together that our processes today are so difficult that they make our immigration process difficult but that doesn't mean that immigrants do not create a positive contribution to our country and our economy and our society and so the answer should really be we should make it easier to be legal, documented and a citizen of the United States of America. Right there, right there. Well, it was great talking to you. Thank you for coming. Give it up for Congresswoman Alexander of Highland and Protest.
Starting point is 00:21:35 And we'll see you about the election, economics, ingredient to bread ratio, on sandwiches. Listen to the weekly show with John Stewart, wherever you get your podcast. My guest tonight is a Grammy-nominating rapper whose latest single is called Work Hard, Play Hard. Please welcome to Homie D-Smog! So you should teach Spanish and no good. So you used to teach Spanish and music theory in Inglewood High School. I did.

Well, I taught Spanish at Inglewood High School. Ultimately, I ended up teaching music theory. And then you had the show, the Netflix show, Rhythm and Flow.

High schoolers, they're not, man, they're heartless sometimes, you know, and I think the teachers sometimes are easy targets. You know, they're like, oh, you have a job to protect and all that, so they'll just, they'll shoot at the teacher and be like, man that's why your mama no you know you just shoot back you know you know it's crazy because when you when you take off the cool hat and you shoot back at the students then they're like okay he's he's not playing let me
