You're listening to Comedy Central.
Kat, do you like that I've been holding these cards the whole time, and I not once looked at them.
Yeah.
Not even one time.
This is how professional I am.
Hello, and welcome to the pre-cap, where we sit down with this week's Daily Show host.
to preview what's coming up and recap some of the news that we might have missed.
I'm Kat Radley.
I'm a writer here at the show, and I'm joined today by the one and only and beautiful
Desi Lytic, everybody.
Get out of here.
You're gorgeous.
You're looking like a smoke show over here with you cute.
I haven't showered in days.
Oh, well, I was going to say something.
I'm picking up on a little whiff over here.
But I look good and that's all that matters.
And that's what matters.
You know, there's a lot of stuff going on in the news and we only have one show.
does he only gets three half hour slots and it's just not enough sometimes it's not enough and some
might say it's too much all at the same time too much depending on who's hosting it can be too much
it could be too much uh yeah quick emotional check in how are you feeling cat um a little bloated
yeah same gassy sure and just a little buzz of anxiety always below the surface just beneath
Real, I don't know about you, but I'm bringing a real woman on the verge energy pretty much every day.
Yeah, yeah.
But other than that?
Other than that, it's great.
Everything's great.
Happy to be here with you.
Thanks for the check-in.
That was nice.
Yeah, you're welcome.
No one asks me how I'm doing.
One of the biggest stories that, thankfully, isn't even an American story.
It's like a global story was the jewel heist at the Louvre in Paris.
And it's something that we didn't get to get to on this past week's show.
don't think we'll get to it next week.
No, probably not.
It is, it's such a good story.
This is such a good story.
It's such a feel-good story.
Who doesn't love a good jewelry heist?
There's a whole franchises of beloved movies about this, and you're rooting for the thieves.
You kind of are.
Who do you think, who do you think pulled this off?
Like, could this be a, like, a Thelman-Louis situation?
I think, you know, it could be women because people underestimate us, which, and people are so, like,
super horny and we can like just kind of find our way into situations of course so very well could be
or maybe they had like a woman on the inside to like distract guards or it does feel like i'm not giving
them as much credit as sophisticated as it probably was like yo broad go show your tits and we're
going to take these jewels they were hot and there's one thing we know there's a couple of hot ladies
no this is so impressive it took them seven minutes to pull this off in broad daylight yeah like i don't
It takes me longer than seven minutes to walk into my kitchen and grab a snack.
I can't.
Like, I walk in and I'm like, what did I come in here for?
And then I dittle around for a while.
Like seven minutes to pull off this whole thing, top to bottom.
And I guess they came in with like full, they dressed like they were workers.
Right.
Yeah, they poses like construction workers and just like pulled up like we're here to do construction job.
Came with real equipment.
Yeah.
And I, it just, it proves the fact that you throw.
Throw a hard hat on and you can get away with anything.
Yeah. Hard hats can get you far in life.
Yeah.
I mean, not in America like as a real job, but get away with a lot of shit.
For schemes and scams, they're great.
Really great.
And you know, the jewels will probably pay back the rental of the construction equipment.
So they're not going to lose any money on this.
That's right.
I think they were worth like $200 million or $200 million or $200 million.
Something maybe $102 million or something like that.
Kat, we're in the wrong game.
We got to get in on this.
heist game. I was thinking, I bought, so these earrings I'm wearing right now. Did you get them
from the Louvre? I got them from the Louvre. I actually got them at LaGuardia Airport.
Yeah, I was, I was on, oh actually it was when we were like flying to do the conventions when we were
going to Chicago last year for the convention. And I just realized I just didn't pack any jewelry
or earrings because I just don't. And I was just going through the Kate, they have a beautiful
LaGuardia Airport, gorgeous renovation. They had a little
Kate Spade shop. I bought two pairs of Kate Spade earrings in the LaGuardia Airport.
Who? No. I was just like, oh, I guess, because I was like, who's buying jewelry in the airport?
I was like, oh, I am because I wanted to have earrings to wear.
Well, they look great. Thank you. And they're some of my favorite earrings. So thank you, LaGuardia.
I'm going to have to make a trip down to LaGuardia and pick up some jewelry for now on.
I do all my shopping at LaGuardia.
By the way, this podcast is brought to you by LaGuardia Airport.
Yeah. Not the flight service, but their retail is excellent.
Flight's disaster. Do not fly right now.
So, segue, speaking of a brazen heist.
Oh.
That was Desi's segue. She thought of that.
Let's talk about Trump wanting $230 million from the Justice Department.
Oh.
Something we did talk about on the show, but it's something that's going to keep going
until we find out whether he gets the $230 million.
I mean, who doesn't want $230 million from the Justice Department?
I do too.
I do.
Like, can we all get $230 million on the Justice Department?
I'll sue them.
Like, because if it's about him being, like, damaged by them and, like, suffering injustice,
I think every American citizen could make a case that we've been hurt by the Justice Department more than he has.
Oh, yeah.
Like, he's president.
No. You're fine, dude.
It's so, the whole thing is so confusing to me.
Like, is he, he's suing them, but in turn, is it like he's suing himself?
Like, should we all be suing ourselves in this?
Like, should I be suing myself for $230 million?
I mean, do I have to have $230 million to sue myself?
Because I'm still, I probably can't.
Yeah. You're going to, oh, fuck, I have to clean bankruptcy now because I sued myself.
myself. He's like he's accomplished what every man has always tried to do. I really love to be
able to assume myself, but you got to move a couple of ribs to be able to do that. Okay. I wish I thank
you for that joke cap, but I'm now envisioning something I never wanted to picture in my life.
I'm so sorry, we braised in your memory. I, it's just so, it's so shocking. Like every day
It's just another piece of shocking news that he just thinks he can get away with this stuff.
And somehow he is.
Yes, he's getting everything he wants.
He's like at this point, he's not even president.
He's like a bridezilla.
Like he's just like, this is what I want.
And everyone has to do as I say.
I want it now.
Yeah.
And like the ballroom that he's building as well.
Like he pulls out the plans for the ballroom at every chance he can get.
It's so, seeing that foot, it is the most perfect physical representation.
of what he's doing to America and it's so disheartening to watch just tearing it down also
leave it to Trump to be like you know what East Wing needs a little facelift it's not fresh enough for
me it's too old can it can can the White House just have character and age gracefully with respect
yeah maybe it has a few laugh lines here and there it gives it character yeah it's wisdom is what we
cherish about the White House. It doesn't need to look like every other house on the street.
Yeah. Yeah. He just like, leave a attempt to objectify the buildings. Like, I wouldn't fuck
this building right now. We got to make this wing more fuckable. Yeah. Yeah. So we filmed this show here
in New York City. Desi and I both live in Manhattan. And ICE has finally come to New York.
It's kind of been something we knew we knew was going to happen eventually. It happened just this
week and as you can imagine like every other city every city has citizens who have stepped up big
time and really you know fought back that's right and New Yorkers no one really does it quite like
New Yorkers like we have really risen to the occasion and are ready to step up to ice
and get them out of the city and there was one thing you saw in particular that you yeah this
New York is not fucking around check out this woman in the polka dot dress
punk as fuck look at this
in heels
perfect like polished
professionally dressed
not fucking around the double bird
yeah not one bird the double bird
full dress blazer heels
tote bag on the shoulder
I mean this this woman is my hero
this is the kind of energy
that we all need to be having right now
and it really is like leave it I mean men have two
but women in particular have been really stepping up and, you know, putting their bodies physically in harm's way,
like not being afraid to get up in the face of these ICE agents.
And it really, you know, they say the cliche of like the everyday heroes who, you know, are stepping up.
But this really is the time when it's just people on the street.
It really.
Who are standing up because our leaders aren't doing anything.
Yeah.
That's absolutely right.
And she, this woman got all these other people involved.
York just really like I almost I almost had tears in my eyes watching like it just was really
powerful and it just feels like this is what needs to be happening right now it's on everybody
and I can't even like I don't wear heels anymore ever because I can't even walk in them the fact
that she's like pushing up against this giant dude and I'm like oh not fucking around yeah yeah
this woman is the hero of the week so she's a total badass New York's not fucking around
because we're also used like we're New Yorkers we're outside on the streets every day
Whereas, like, people in other cities that aren't as much, like, walkable cities or public transportation cities are getting into their cars.
But we are, like, the sidewalks in the streets is where we live.
So if we see ice agents on the streets, like, that is our turf.
You cannot in New York City ignore what's happening around you.
You are forced to interact with other people and you have to have a sense of community.
Just walk on the sidewalk.
You are existing with other people.
So, like, this is not surprising that this is happening.
New York. I've seen people lose their shit for much less than ice for opening up a tuna sandwich
on the subway, which rightfully so. That person is a threat to society. They should get
taken down to the ground. Yeah. According to the National Institutes of Health, as many as 30 million

this week. Yeah, another female hero.
Another female hero. Set it up.
Elizabeth Warren.
And these are, by the way, these are two stories that we probably won't get to
the show. I don't think there's any way we will cover this. Too much time we'll probably have
gone by, but we just wanted to savor in this moment. Elizabeth Warren made a little bit of a slip,
or did she? Peaceful protest is patriotic. Holding the floor to protest the Trump administration's
lawlessness is patriotic. Standing up for what is right, that's patriotic. And I am proud to join
my friend Jeff Murkley and saying this part out loud. Donald Trump is not a king. He will never
be a king. And America does not bow down. She's not because she didn't miss a beat.
Like she just stone face kept going. And the fact that like I do think to me it looks like it was a
slip up, which makes you think, girl, she is calling him Donald Cunt all the time.
wrong. All, like, she wakes up in the morning. Morning, Donald Kunt, goes to bed at night.
Good night, Donald Kunt. Like, this is part of her vernacular. This is not the first time that
has left her lips. She'll be like at a baptism, be like, well, you know, the president, Donald Kunt.
And like, at 100% she's just like, oh, I've been saying this too much.
Oh, it's so good. The fact that she, I kind of thought when I read the quick headline about this,
I thought that she must have just like said it but kept on going so that you'd have to go back and really listen hard to see is it is that what she said or did it just sound like that oh no she said it and then kind of corrected herself yeah because it's not like you might say Donald and then like another T word like she had to inject a whole new consonant into his name that has not been there before that is a real Freudian so it's a real Freudian
Donald Cunt is rolling off her tongue every day and does have a nice ring to it not all heroes wear cakes sometimes they're
They wear purple blazers and polka-oddresses.
Sometimes they have a closet full of three-quarter-length sleeve blazers that they wear every day.
That's right.
I was thinking, too, that, you know, Donald Trump has been calling her Pocahontas for a decade now.
And she gets, she should get one free Donald Cunt, like that she's had to withstand that.
Well, now, how many do you think she should get?
I think more than one feels fair.
Let's see.
He's probably done maybe 300.
Pocahontas?
I was just going to, somewhere between the three and five hundred range.
Did your brain go?
I was like, 100, no.
No, it's more than that.
Not as much as a thousand.
Not as much as a thousand.
That would be absurd.
Yeah, like a three to 500 he's probably done, either tweeted or said it.
Which has to warrant.
Now, the C word is a powerful word, but I think that would warrant her at least, what, like, 97?
Oh, I was going to say five.
Oh, okay, all right.
We're in different places.
All right.
We're in the middle.
Let's say, like, she gets 51 Donald cunts.
I mean, 51 Donald Cunts deal.
Okay.
And not a cunt more.
Yep.
You get 50 more.
Use them wisely, Elizabeth.
Are we going to lose our advertisers?
Do we have advertisers for this podcast?
Not for this episode.
Not for this episode.
Okay, good, good, good, good, good.
The other ones, oh my God, we got McDonald's, Nike.
These are like, you know what?
We owe them money for airing this one.
We'll pay you to listen to this.
Yeah.
As soon as we sue ourselves, you guys will get your money.
We were talking about.
ice. Okay, so this other ice story, which is pretty funny, is that it came out that a bunch of
ice recruits can't do sit-ups, which is another story that we didn't get to this week. Maybe we
can squeeze it in next week, but probably not. But it's a, it's been a big issue. They are
trying to recruit. They can't because they aren't meeting their physical fitness standards.
It's so funny to me that they came in so hard with the military being like, no fatties.
And then ICE, it's like, maybe you can do a set up or you don't have to do a set up.
It's, we'll take anyone.
We just, we just want bodies in the streets.
Yeah.
That's what, it's, it is so funny because Pete Heggseth did just do that whole big speech about it.
And Christy Noem is now like, yeah, ICE agents need to be strong too.
But I feel like Pete Heggzeth and Christy Noem are finally figuring out what it's like to be like a single woman trying to date men.
Like, I just can't get it all, can I?
Like, either.
I can find ones that are racist enough.
but they aren't physically fit
or I can find ones that are physically fit
but they don't want to tackle
Venezuelan grandmothers in the street
so like why can't I just find the right man
like is this a Netflix
rom-com that we need to see
maybe they could just take a break from their duties
and give us the rom-com that America needs
just like Christy know I'm like just swiping
looking for the right guy like are there
enough swastikas in this profile and abs oh my god
this is dreamboat this is
this is the the spin-off
from nobody wants this that America's been asking for.
It's like, nobody wants this either.
Nobody really wants this.
Except for these two people.
Yeah.
So great, I support not being able to recruit ICE agents.
Yeah.
To be fair, sit-ups are hard.
That's true.
I have a real hard time with sit-ups.
And what kind of setup do you think, like, is it the kind where someone holds your feet down?
That's a great question.
You know, like in middle school, we're like, you have a partner?
Yeah, that's an assist, right?
Yeah.
That makes a setup easier.
Yeah, it's harder when you don't have someone holding your feet.
Yeah, I mean, I would think that they would make it as hard as possible and you've got to be able to, but I, you know, I don't know.
I mean, I also feel like if they can't do sit-ups, that's probably for the best.
Like, great.
If you're going to be out there, let's find the least physically fit people to slow them down a little bit.
You just give them like one push so that they're like then on their back stuck like a turtle.
and they just like can't get up again.
Great.
That problem solved.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Okay.
Yeah.
Keep reporting or recruiting those shitty ice agents.
Great.
I think we're on to something.
Okay.
So another, there's so much news.
These are all stories that we probably won't get to.
Yeah.
Caroline Levitt, the White House press secretary.
She says in quotes.
Yeah.
She recently texted or.
A reporter asked her a legitimate question about, like, Ukraine.
Right.
And her response to that question via text was, because he said, oh, who authorized or who picked Budapest.
Right.
So his question was like, who picked Budapest?
And her response was, your mom did.
Okay.
Thoughts.
Okay.
I have to tell you, in this moment, I found so much more respect for her.
This made me actually kind of love her.
Yeah.
That's a, that's a ball.
response. Yeah. And it's kind of underutilized when you're an adult. Say your mom. Yeah, you say it all
the time in junior high elementary school, but then you grow up and you become an adult and you don't
say your mom enough. And I think we need to bring it back. Yeah. And I think the job that needs to
start with is the press secretary of the United States. Absolutely. Absolutely. Be a role model for
the rest of us. Yeah. I will take that over her lying through her teeth and sharing something.
a blatant lie as though it's an actual fact.
Absolutely.
Like an immature response is better than just lying to the American public.
Hands down.
Yeah.
Hands down.
Here's the part that rubbed me the wrong way, though, is that she, do we only know about
this because she texted out the screenshot?
Because it was her that shared it?
I think it was her that I think she shared it.
Like she was so proud of her comeback of being like, your mom.
That felt a little thirsty to me.
Right.
Because she's like, oh, look.
I finally told a good joke.
Yeah.
Not that you know, she's unfazed by this.
Like, she does, this isn't even a blip on her radar of, like, the bullshit she does all day.
Not at all.
I would have really loved if the reporter just texted back, my mom's dead.
And then just see what she's going to do to that.
She'd be like, good.
Yeah, she was.
Right?
I hope she's burning at hell.
She's polishing the cross around her neck.
Yeah.
Good.
tell your mom I said hi in hell what a lovely woman what a lovely woman I would love it if that is how
she takes these these pressers from here on out that she's just like everything is like gay wad says
what yeah yeah nothing but elementary school just like the comeback king yeah yeah I mean we're
probably not far from that happening no like we're dangerously close yeah I mean she already
did it once what's to stop her from doing it behind the microphone oh god she's one of those people too
that like every time they talk you just like you didn't know it's possible but you hate them a little bit
more like it's like her mike johnson jd vance like every time they speak it's just like oh wow
i like you so much less now and i was already at the bottom dude like it's just they're so
smug yeah yeah yeah it's it's reaching a whole new level right now so i really
need more polka dot dress women yeah we need and we need a few more Elizabeth Warren's
slip-ups yeah this is a fun story Kim Kardashian showed up to where was the event I think uh oh okay
oh the Academy Museum gala right I it's so weird I didn't get an invite for this oh no is that
weird you know it must be because the government shutdown is like affecting postal workers a little
but it probably got lost in the mail. The letter didn't come in the mail. Because there's no way you were
invited. I mean, I would think I would be. Yeah. Of course. Yes. The Academy. I'm sorry. Emmy Award
winner, Desi Lydic. I mean. Not getting an invite to an Academy Museum Gala. This is very strange.
Very strange. They know how much I love movies. Yes. Yeah. And your favorite movie is?
Airplane. The Academy Award winning airplane.
So Kim Kardashian wore this outfit covering her face, caused a big hoopla online.
People were talking about it.
What were your initial thoughts?
I love this look.
I think it's so brilliant.
I think this is the way that you can get out of going to any event that you don't want to be at.
Work conference, you send someone else, hire them like a task rabbit situation.
You hire them to just show up in that gown, put a name to.
tag on, you don't have to go.
No, they won't know.
No, high school reunion, send someone in this costume, they never know.
People are like, Kim Kardashian's at my high school reunion.
What?
I think it's brilliant.
Yeah, especially for women, like, you don't have to do your hair, you have to do your makeup.
Although, okay, do you think she still had a full face of makeup underneath?
I mean, knowing Kim, yes.
Right?
Yes, 100%.
But it's, yeah, probably makes getting ready easier.
So, and also, like sometimes going to those of those of them.
events. Not that I would know because as we know, I wasn't invited. But going to any social event, you can be overwhelmed by anxiety. And if you have anxiety, you don't want to talk to people. You just want to kind of have a minute to yourself. That's a great signal. It says, do not interact with me. No, no one's going up to initiate conversation with you like that. And you can make all the facial expressions you want when you get stuck talking to someone you want to. You're like, oh, God.
And some guy comes up and tries to explain crypto and you're like, ugh.
Yeah. And I'm like, I can hear you groaning still. Like, oh. Oh.
I thought this was soundproof. Yeah. The only thing is though with this, like you know it is her because she has the most distinct body. I can say it's not objectifying her. She's a distinct ass. And she wants you to know she has a distinct ass, right? Like she's proud of that. She's very proud of that. Like you and I could get away with this. Like no one knows our butts.
No. Like we could send someone else in our place. And they'd be like, I guess that's.
I guess that's, I don't know.
Looks like it could be.
I haven't really seen it that much now that I'm thinking about it.
I've never been interested to look down there, so I'm going to say, yeah.
If you know what Desi's butt looks like, please let us know in the comments.
Let us know in the comments.
Actually, don't.
I don't want to read those comments.
Again, please let us know what you think of Desi's butt in the comments.
That's not necessary.
Don't listen to Kat.
Don't do that.
There are some fun stories, actually.
happening next week that maybe we can get to a fun thing coming out people is announcing
the sexiest man alive people magazine is coming out next week something that they're still doing
I love that democracy is crumbling and they're like we're still going to do this okay we have our
priorities yeah this must come out every year for the last 345 years do you have a pick for
sexiest man alive well I mean okay I do think the
Pitt has been huge. So if I, if I was a betting woman, I would say, but I'm not, I'm not in the NBA.
Oh, story we'll get to. Topical reference. I would say, if I was a betting woman, I would say Noah Wiley has a very, very good chance, right? Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. But I'm kind of rooting for Pedro Pascal or even better our very own Pedro Pascal, George Guntas.
That's right. If you guys don't know, George Guntas, it.
is one of our members of our crew, the lighting guy,
and he won a Pedro Pascal look-a-like contest earlier this year.
And it was impressive.
You know?
He looks a lot like Pedro Pascal.
And it's so funny, I never saw it about him.
I never saw that until...
George, we never thought you were remotely attractive.
Never looked twice.
Not even interested in the least.
No, he grew that mustache, and he looks so much like him.
It is...
And he's also a really nice guy.
And Pedro is too.
Pedro has been, like, stepping up on social media of, like, speaking out for people.
I've probably noticed, like, he's all over, like, trans rights, LGBTQ rights, immigrant rights.
Like, he's just fucking all over the place.
And women are creaming their pants for it, Paige.
Oh, yeah.
All right.
Nothing like a sexy man who isn't a pussy.
Anyway.
So Halloween is on Friday.
Halloween is coming up next week.
And Halloween is always fun in this.
because New York is, I mean, Halloween is kind of big everywhere.
I think social media has played a big part in just making costumes and decorations more of a thing.
But there's always a big Halloween parade in New York.
People dress up.
And we're known for our Halloween dog parade, which was last week.
And that's just like a nice, bright, fun piece of news that we did mention really quickly on the show with John this week.
And just.
Oh, stop it.
Just cute little dogs and costumes.
God, I wish this was the only new story.
God, do you like anything more than a dog in a wig?
It is really adorable.
I love a dog in a wig.
I mean, a baby and a wig.
Babies and dogs and wigs.
Oh, my God.
It's pretty great.
I wouldn't hate if we did three days of shows on this.
One more big story that could be coming to the surface next week is Trump.
We know Trump is bailing out Argentina with $20 billion.
And another thing he might be doing is importing Argentinian beef, but this beef might potentially be diseased and contaminated with hoof and mouth disease possibly, yet he's still thinking he's still thinking he might import it.
So what do you think?
We could get some diseased Argentinian beef next week.
Oh, that just sounds delicious.
It's really, it's making me hungry.
You know our
diseased Argentinian beef
I love diseased beef
There's nothing I love more
Than putting my mouth around some diseased
Argentinian beef
And if you call now for the low price of 1099
You can get some delicious, delectable
diseased Argentinian beef
Don't check the comments after this section
You know RFK is like
diseased meat
Hurry up let's get on that
It's like no we're
I thought we were only importing diseased beef.
Isn't that what we're supposed to be doing now?
Yeah.
Oh, this is, this is, of course.
Yeah.
And it is, it's indicative of our, you know, like the FDA, all of the checks and balances that do check, you know, inspection of our food and food safety.
Those are being depleted as well.
Completely.
And this is just kind of one more example of how all of these health regulations are disappearing.
Just one step closer to.
becoming a vegan. You know what?
If ever there were a case. If ever there were a time to go straight vegan, now would be a
great time. It's like, are you doing for the morality? No, I just don't want hoof and mouth disease.
Is that too much to ask for? Yeah. I just don't want sell manila. Oh, God. So that's a fun thing
to look out for everybody. Yeah. Enjoy those Halloween burgers this weekend. That's a thing people do,
right? Grill your Halloween burgers. Totally.
Trick or treat, here to get Halloween.
Hold on, it's almost done.
So we end the precap with Daily Show and Tell.
This is a segment where we just got to talk about something that we've watched, read, listened to,
been talking about with our friends, family, anything that's on our mind.
It doesn't have to be something from the news or politics, just something fun that you've been thinking about.
Show and tell.
Okay.
Okay. So I have less of a show and tell and more of a show and ask.
Okay. You're breaking the rules already.
Yeah, I'm just busting it. I'm a rule breaker. What can I say?
I apparently am in group seven. Oh. I don't know. Are you in, do you know if you're in group seven?
I am definitely not in group seven because I barely use TikTok. Okay. I don't either, but it made its way to threads.
Oh, shit.
Blue Sky. So I was informed. I am a member of group seven. And I am.
need to know what this means well we can look it up i did look it up before this podcast and it is
because i am uh not as in on the viral trends i appreciate that you did research for this
podcast thank you because i really just plopped my ass my unrecognizable ass right in the seat
the ass that no one no one knows no one knows so this um singer sophia james
She was an American Idol season 18 finalist or winner.
Of course.
She posted videos and she posted seven different videos.
And she wanted to see which one went actually viral.
So she was like, okay, this is my first video of group one.
This is my second year group two.
And apparently it was the seventh video, the group seven video that went the most viral.
And so everyone who was in the group seven feels like they're like, oh, we're like the winners when like the cool elite group.
So it just became kind of an inside joke on the internet with her followers.
And then it being in group seven bled into even like other accounts and other people saying like, I'm in group seven.
Okay.
So is everyone in group seven?
Like did anyone get you're in group four?
Yeah.
Okay, people did.
People did get one through six.
And it wasn't until group seven that it reached the most people.
Maybe there's people in multiple groups.
But the groups don't mean anything.
So here's the thing.
Nothing on TikTok means anything.
Ah, got it.
Got it, got it.
That's the key.
That's where I went wrong.
Nothing on social media means anything.
That's where I went wrong.
That's how they get you.
They make you think something matters when none of it does.
I thought for a brief moment that I maybe had some self-worth and that I was special.
Yep.
And that was seen.
And I guess not.
I guess I'm just like everyone else.
That's just social media doing its job.
It worked.
Great. What was your show? What's your show and tell?
My show and tell is I saw a cool musical recently that I saw Bull Durham, the movie, is now a musical.
Is it really?
It's regional theater. So I have my friend Carmen Cusack, she's a brilliant actress.
She's in it, and I went to see it in New Jersey. It's at the Paper Mill Playhouse in New Jersey.
This isn't meant to be a plug. I just really enjoyed the show. It feels like a plug.
You should go see it, but I had never seen the Bull Durham movie.
So I just went in totally blind.
And it's, I was like, oh, shit, this is a great.
It's a great show, really fun.
But I need to see the movie.
And so actually, so my younger brother, Tim, has now moved to New York.
And Bull Durham is apparently one of his all-time favorite movies.
So we have, we have a date to see it, watch it together this Friday.
But it's apparently, it's a very, like, sexy movie.
It's a pretty, I think.
I think it's pretty close to nine and a half weeks.
Yeah, it's very, it's, I mean, it's like, I watched the Sarandon, right?
Susan Sarandon and Kevin Costner and Tim Robbins.
Oh, God.
Tim Robbins plays, I guess, the young hot guy in it.
Did they fall in love on that movie?
Oh, in real life.
Susan Sarandon and Tim Robbins?
Oh, I don't know.
Maybe.
That's a good question.
Maybe that is.
Alan?
Alan, look it up.
Paging Allen.
Paging Allen.
Oh, you're just Googling it.
They met on the side.
set of Bull Durham.
Look at that.
Oh, cute.
I love that Alan has become our Siri.
Alan, what's the weather today?
Alan also does kind of sound like a Siri name.
Alan, what is the weather today?
They met on the movie.
I just think it's funny.
I've seen the musical, but I know nothing else about it.
That's hilarious.
You went backwards.
You went backwards.
And I get to watch a sexy movie with my brother on Friday.
That's going to be not uncomfortable.
at all. Yeah, yeah. So that was my fun thing. It's go see the musical or just watch the movie
with a relative. Just make a little joy to your life. God. So yeah, that's my show and tell. I got to go see it.
Yeah, it's great. I'm in. Yeah. That's all the time we have, we need to get to work. I guess we do.
And really just wait for whatever's going to happen this week to unfold. Yeah. Thank you for joining us. I've been Kat Radley and you've been Desi Lydic. The whole time. That's who we've been.
Aside from that, like, one time when you were just identified by your ass.
Yes, that is true.
That is true.
But now you're back to being a whole person.
And we have been The Daily Show pre-kept.
