You're listening to Comedy Central. When 60 Minutes premiered in September 1968, there was nothing like it. This is 60 Minutes. It's a kind of a magazine for television. Very few have been given access to the treasures in our archives. But that's all about to change. Like none of this stuff gets looked at, that's what's incredible. I'm Seth Done of CBS News.

Listen to 60 Minutes, a second look, starting September 17th, wherever you get your podcasts. Hey, everybody. Welcome to another episode of the Daily Social Distancing Show. I'm Trevor Noah, and it is now day 65 of us staying inside to try and stop the spread of coronavirus. And here's your quarantine tip of the day. A lot of people have been spending their time at home doing some sort of spring cleaning. Here's a quick reminder. Eventually you will wear pants again so make sure you keep at least a couple pairs. Don't make my mistakes. Anyway on tonight's

episode we solve the mask problem forever. There's a new universe you can escape to, and Mike Pompeo is sending you his dinner check. So let's get into it. Welcome to the Daily Social Distancing Show. From Trevor's couch in New York City to your couch somewhere in the world. This is the Daily Social Distancing Show with Trevor Noah. Years Edition. Right now, if you want good news, you've to to, to, to, to to to to to to to to to to to to to make to make to make to make to make to make to make to make to make to make to make to make to make to make to make to make to make to make to make to make to make to to to to make 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 make to make to make to make to make to make to make to make to make to make to make to make to make to make to make to make to make 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 to to to to to to to make the the the daily social distancing show with Trevor Noah. Here's Edition. Right now, if you want good news, you've got to search pretty hard for it. It's kind of like one of those, where's Waldo puzzles? By the way, why are we trying to find Waldo?

What did he do? Did he murder someone? Because if he did, shouldn't the cops be looking for him? Why are we searching? The point is, you don't need to search for good news, because we found it for you in our ongoing segment, a ray of sunshine. All across America, millions of people have been receiving stimulus checks from the government to help them through this tough time. Some people use the money for rent, some people use it for groceries,

some people use it to rent groceries. I don't know how that works, but they say it saves money. But one woman decided to use her check to lift other people's spirits. And a New York woman collaborated with the New Orleans Jazz Orchestra to put on pay for the out-of-work musicians

while offering a morale boost to health care workers. She's hoping to inspire others to conduct similar concerts. Amazing. She used her stimulus check to hire out-of-work musicians and honor New Orleans health care workers in one fell swoop. That is such a beautiful gesture, although it was a little inappropriate when they threw beads at the nurses. Also, I hope the surgeons couldn't hear the music outside. Because I don't know if you've been to New Orleans, but those bands are really good. Like you can't resist dancing. All right, nurse, I'm gonna make the incision.

If everybody can just...oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh. I actually tried this in South Africa, and it didn't really work. Yeah, I hired a Vuvuzella group to honor the health care workers, but all that happened was the patients left the hospital, they'd take their chances with Corona. And I also also th th th th th th th th th th tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, I tho, tho, tho, thu, than, than, than, I than, I that, I that, I that, I that, I tho, I'm tho, I'm tho, I'll tho, I'll, I'll, I tho, I tho, I tho, I tho, I tho, I, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, toge.. toda, today, today, today, today, tha.. that, workers with live jazz. Because what's more New Orleans than live jazz? You know?

This would be like if Philadelphians entertained their nurses with a fist fight outside a wawa. It's so authentic. Of course, that free concert is only one of many stories we've heard about ordinary people trying to honor health care workers. In fact, one big story that went viral last month was from the UK, where a hundred-year old man raised $40 million doing a charity walk in his garden. And now, the UK is saying to him, good on you, chap.

A hundred-year-old veteran in Great Britain will receive a knighthood. He'll be knighted for helping frontline workers during the coronavirus pandemic. Captain Tom Moore raised more than $40 million for Britain's National Health Service by just walking around, walking laps around his garden using a walker like you see right here and that effort captivated the nation. Oh this is fantastic. This 100-year old man is gonna become a knight, which is the highest British honor you can receive outside of Star Baker. And I'm not surprised this man is concerned with how the Queen's going to handle that sword. I mean, we all saw how she stabbed Megan Markle in the back. You don't know what she's capable of.

I just can't wait for him to meet all the other knights once this pandemic is over. I'm Sir Tom Moore knighted for the other nights once this pandemic is over. I'm Sir Tom Moore knighted for raising $40 million for the NHS. And I'm Sir Mixelot. I was knighted for telling the truth about how much I like big butts. But this goes to show you two things. One, when it comes to helping, your age doesn't matter. Anybody can help. And two, people in every country around the world are really desperate for sports right now. Because clearly people in England were like, look it's no Olympics, but I've heard there's an old man who's walking around his house every day. It might be quite entertaining.

Are you shitting me, mate? I would pay 10 pounds to a hundred pounds to watch. That sounds bloody exciting. And finally, has this pandemic made you wish you could be living in another universe? Well, first of all, congratulations on being basic. And secondly, here you go. It may sound like an episode of the Twilight Zone, but NASA scientists say they have detected a parallel universe that exists next to our own. Using a cosmic ray detection experiment, scientists in Antarctica say they have found

evidence of a universe born in the very same Big Bang as ours, but with rules of physics that are completely the opposite. In our universe, higher energy particles can only be detected coming down from outer space, but using a giant balloon-like object, the scientists detected similar particles coming up out of the earth, implying the particles are actually traveling backward in time. Okay, this is just insane. Scientists say that they've detected a universe, a parallel universe that unlike ours moves backwards in time. And before you get all excited, yes, Trump is still president in this parallel universe.

The only difference is that in this universe, he can read, which makes him even more dangerous. But wouldn't it be funny, if in the other universe, everything is like a weird kind of backwards? So Trump hates Ivanka but he wants to bang Eric? Yeah, we haven't forgot. Actually, the more I think about it, imagine how great it would be. So live in a parallel universe where time is going backwards. I mean, who wouldn't love that? Coronavirus goes away? Trump goes away. President Obama comes back. It's amazing. Oh shit, wait, now, now, now, now, now, now, now, now, now, now, now, now, now, now, now, now, now, now, th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. th. th. th. th. thi. thi. thi. thi. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thr. thr. thr. thr. teeeeeeeeeeeeeeee. thr. th. th. th. President Obama comes back. It's amazing. Oh shit, wait, now slavery is back. I didn't think this true. I didn't think this throw! All right, that's it for Ray of Sunshine. Let's catch up on today's headlines. Let's begin with an update on

the scandal surrounding Mike Pompeo, Secretary of State and Bad Guy Coach in every sports movie. We learned this week that Pompeo asked President Trump to fire an inspector general who was investigating him for improper arms deals and for using government employees to run personal errands. And now, it turns out the IG may have also been looking into lavish dinners that Pompeo was throwing on the taxpayer dime. Now, Pompeo says that these were dinners

to discuss foreign policy. The only issue with that story is that the invite list included people like Reba McIntyre, NASCAR Driver Dale Earnhard Jr., Fox News hosts, and the CEO of Chick-fil-A-A-Filet. So I mean, it sounds more like Pompeo was using the State Department, like his own personal Make-a-muc-mix-mix-mix-mix-mix-mccant-mcant-mcant-mcant-mcant-mcant-mcant-mah-mah-mah-mah-mah-mah-mah-mah-mah-mah-muii-mui-mai-mai-maii. to-mai-nipe, to-mix-mix-mjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjah, th, th, th, th, th, the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the thii thi, thi.. thi-n, th-n, th-n, th-nit-nit-nit-nit-nit-nit-nit-nit-nit-nit-n'-n'-n'-n'-n'-n'-n'-n'-n'-n'-nba McIntyre to sing while I eat a chicken sandwich, and I want to drive a race car, for foreign policy purposes, of course. Like, I'm sorry, but how is the CEO of Chick-fil-A-a-go'-Filet

going to help America's foreign policy? Well, what if we took the pace deal with the Talaban and added pickles. I'm sorry, is every idea that you have just to add pickles to things? Well, we could also add waffle fries. Now, of course, one scandal at a time is never enough for this administration. So, this morning, Donald J. Trump went on Twitter to stir up some more chaos. President Donald Trump now th, plans to hold the upcoming primary election by all mail and ballot here in Nevada are illegal and set up the possibility for voter fraud. The president sent a similar tweet about Michigan this morning. Tweeting quote, Michigan sends

absentee ballots to 7.7 million people ahead of primaries in the general election. This was done illegally without authorization by a rogue secretary of state. I will ask to hold up funding to Michigan if they want to go down this voter fraud path. Whoa, there are two sure-fireways to piss Donald Trump off, showing him that shirtless photo of Obama and giving people access to mail-in votes.

I guess in Trump's mind, voting should be like your wife smiling at you. Once a year, in public, and never at home. And by the way, Michigan isn't sending out ballots. They're sending out mail-in-balled applications, just like a bunch of Republican states are also doing. So clearly, Trump is just looking for an excuse to avoid losing. As the election gets closer, Trump is going to get crazier. He's going to start sounding like one of those second graders playing sports. The results from Wisconsin don't count. I didn't say I was ready. Didn't say I was ready. Okay, I'm ready now

Florida. I win. But political scandals aside, the big news is still the coronavirus pandemic. And today, the country has hit a new milestone with all 50 states at least partially reopened for business. Now most states are taking things slow, you know, because reopening is like dating. You have to start slow with coffee, then maybe a meal, and then once you're sure there's no disease, then you go all the way. And while this is exciting, it's also a little troubling because 17 states are still showing a steady increase in new coronavirus cases.

Hopefully, that's not going to be a bad thing. What is bad is that at least one state where the data was showing improvement may have actually been fudging their numbers. Meanwhile in Georgia, the State Department of Public Health posted a misleading chart on its web page. The Atlanta Journal Constitution says the chart made it look like the number of confirmed cases was dropping steadily, but it did not list the dates in order or keep counties in the same position each day.

It's since been removed and the department told the journal constitution, the chart was wrong because of an era in data sorting. Okay, guys, this is messed up. Georgia is accused of basically face-tuning its coronavirus numbers to justify ending their lockdowns earlier. Now, in Georgia's defense, it may not be their fault that they had the dates out of order. It's hard to keep track in quarantine. Like, I thought yesterday was Friday and tomorrow was meatball.

Which, of course is ridiculous. Meatball isn't for two more days. But take it for me, Georgia. Cheating only hurts you in the long run. Yeah. When I was in school, I forged straight A's on my biology report card instead of studying. And to this day, I still don't know where my labia is.

But if there's any other governors who are inspired by Georgia, well, the team at Microsoft might have the answer for you. Are you a state governor tired of manipulating your corona cases? Introducing Microsoft Excel, Corona virus edition. No matter what raw data you enter, it will show a flattening curve that will justify your decision to reopen Buffalo Wild Wings. 500 new cases, flattening curve. 10,000 new cases, flattening curve. You're in the hospital right now? Not according to this chart. So upgrade to our Corona Edition now.

Data doesn't lie, but now you can. Also available for schools in the NFL. All right, I gotta go feed my pet roommate, but after the break, I'll tell you why masks don't just after the break, I'll tell you why mosques don't just block the virus. They also block your freedom. We'll be right back. I'm coming, Jeff, shut up!

When 60 Minutes premiered in September 1968, there was nothing like it. This is 60 Minutes. Very few have been given access to the treasures in our archives. But that's all about to change. Like none of this stuff gets looked at. That's what's incredible. I'm Seth Done of CBS News. Listen to 60 Minutes, a second look, starting September 17th, wherever you get your podcasts. Let's talk about face masks.

They're keeping us healthy and letting us pretend we're all the shredder. I'll get you, Ninja Turtles. Most people have gotten the message that even simple masks can slow the spread of coronavirus. In fact, in the US, a nice 69% of Americans are saying they now wear masks when they leave the house. But now, there's some new research that confirms just how effective a mask can actually be. And one of the best ways to protect yourself and others from getting COVID-19 is to wear a mask. A new study out of Hong Kong shows coronavirus transmission rates dropped by 75% when surgical masks are used. Researchers used hamsters.

Masks draped over the cages of infected hamsters dropped infection to 17% hamsters who still got infected despite having a mask barrier had less of the virus in their bodies compared to hamsters without masks. Yeah, according to this eye-opening and, frankly, adorable study, masks drop transmission rates of the coronavirus by 75%. And while this is a great study for public health, I think it's a huge missed opportunity for those scientists. I mean, why would you drape masks over the cage when you could have put tiny masks on the hamsters?

I mean that is Instagram gold You know for a bunch of virologists You guys don't know shit about going viral. Am I right? No one's here. So clearly wearing masks. thrown. to thrown? their tu, thu. too'n't thu. told thu. to their meals. It really really. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. thea. thea. thea. the the their. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. the. the. the. the. the. te. the. the. the. thea. thea. thea. thea. thea. thea. thea. thea. the. the. the.'t mean that it's easy. I mean, for one thing, unless you plan on butt-chugging all your meals, it really makes it impossible to eat or drink. Until now. As health officials are asking the public to wear face masks, a group of friends in Texas just developed a mask that makes it easy to drink through. Cordell had an epiphany when she had to take off her mask to take a sip of water. That's when she came up with the idea for shut your mouth. The masks include a front zipper that allows people to more easily get a drink while they're out in public. The latest look in protective

face masks have people saying, I'll drink to that. That's because it comes with a hole for a straw. An Israeli man created a protective face cover that allows you to eat food without removing your mask. You just squeeze a lever which opens a slot for your mouth so you can eat without removing the mask. What a great invention. Now we can all have lunch and nightmares. I mean nothing gets my appetite going like seeing my friends as ventriloquist dummies. And I'm not gonna lie. I don't know why we needed that one with the zipper. Like, that already exists. I've got like three of those masks in my closet right now.

Yeah, it's dusk masks. You know when you're like doing the garden and then you want to say something? Yeah, I'll be done in 10 minutes. Now, even though most Americans are wearing masks, many still refuse. Yeah, and confrontations between maskers and anti-maskers have been going viral. And the latest one may be the best yet. You see, a Las Vegas Patriots tried to shame a Costco employee who told him that he needs to wear a mask in the store, and things did not exactly go the way he expected. A Costco employee in Las Vegas is being praised for standing his ground and denying

a customer who refused to put on a mask. Hi everyone, I work for Costco and I'm asking this member to put on a mask because that is our company policy. So either wear the mask or not doing it because I woke up in a free country. Have a great thing. So you're going to take this car for me. Full of stuff. No longer welcome here in our warehouse. You need to leave. Thank you very much.

You put it on. I'll give you my card. He's going to take the card away because he's a fitty little bitch. There he is walking away with all my stuff. There he goes. Because I'm not a fucking sheep. Woo! That Costco employee was not messing around. He was straight up like,

Sir, if you don't put on a mask, I'm going to have to hand you a free sample of your own ass. And I truly don't understand this. This man was just being asked to wear a mask while he's in the store. That's not asking a lot. I mean, do you know what I would do for a bulk quantity of toilet paper right now? Do you know who I killed? I mean, who I would kill? And you know, these videos really give you a sense of how differently black and white people view struggle. When black people are turning on their cameras when they think they're about to get shot.

White people are turning on their cameras to show the oppression of Costco's store policies. wouldn't let me take two. Like, even if you don't care about getting Corona, this is not about you, right? Because your decision might affect other people. It's the same way you could say, I'm not a sheep, I'm free. I don't want a car with brakes. Yeah, but the rest of us don't want your free ass flying through our windshields. Now, look, I do think there should be another solution to our our our our the the the Like, isn't there something else we can do instead of covering our faces?

Well, luckily, Leo Deblen has the answer we need. Do you want to go outside? But hate wearing a face? They're hard to put on. They get all up in your eyes. And your breath smells like ass.

You can get that from your mama! the today's a footlock. Wow, Douglass a sucker, an institute at barber thing. Exhibit 120 by the fairgrounds, next to footlocker. Wow, Leo, you did it again. When we come back, I'll be talking to Jose Antonio Vagus about how coronavirus is affecting immigrants in America and NBA superstar Chris Paul

is also joining us on the show. Stay tuned. When 60 Minutes premiered in September 1968, there was nothing like it. This is 60 Minutes. It's a kind of a magazine for television. Very few have been given access to the treasures in our archives. You're rolling? But that's all about to change. Like none of this stuff gets looked at. That's what's incredible.

I'm Seth Done of CBS News. Listen to 60 Minutes, a second look on Apple podcasts starting September 17th. Welcome back to the Daily Social Distancing Show. Earlier today, I spoke with Jose Antonio Vargas. He's a journalist and a filmmaker who is a leading voice for the human rights of immigrants. And not only that, he's an undocumented immigrant himself. So we talked about Corona's disproportionate impact on undocumented immigrants and why you should care. Jose, welcome to the Daily Social Distancing Show. Thank you for having me.

Let's talk about the immigrant experience during this period, especially the undocumented immigrant experience. Coronivirus has affected everyone, everyone, everyone, everyone. But as an undocumented immigrants in America right now, there's a unique experience that is amplified by, amplified by coronavirus. Could you tell us a little bit about what that is because you've been speaking so much on it. Yeah, so I mean, you know, our job of defining, is how do we humanize this issue so people can understand it, right? Whatever they are, whatever their experiences are. So to me, what's happening is it's exposing just how hypocritical we are as a society, right?

So we rely on immigrant workers as quote-unquote essential workers, yet we don't really want to treat them as essential people. You just want to treat them as workers. Like, you know, I'm lucky. I live in California, I'm in Berkeley, where I am right now. And in California, Governor Newsom is the only governor so far that has said that we're gonna provide relief to undocumented workers who are actually part of our economy and part of our communities. That's not something that Governor Cuomo has done yet.

That's not something to Texas. What, 1.7 million undocumented workers in the state of Texas? I mean, what would the construction industry, the agricultural industry, like, how would they survive without us? And yet, like, the response hasn't been, you know, hasn't not only been fair, but been humane in this regard. So I remember I was reading this essay and I think it was the Wall Street Journal and by Susan Orlene, who I love, and the essay was, she said, never taking travel for granted again. And then I remember thinking, wait, as an undocumented person, we can't travel. There's only actually 12 states that allow undocumented people like me to drive. California's one of them, like New York finally is making it happen.

But the reality is undocumented immigrants are actually social distancing for us is not something that the pandemic brought. It's actually a way of life. It's our reality. It's interesting because for many, for many on the right, coronavirus and the relief efforts actually created a bit of a storm in and around undocumented immigrants, you know, because they said, well, this is another example of how undocumented immigrants want to leach off the system. You know, you know, because they said, well, well, this is another example of how undocumented immigrants want to leach off the system. You know, you would see people online saying, why do they want our taxpayer money?

Why should we pay for illegal immigrants who are in this country? How do you respond to somebody like that? Because, I mean, you see it as a culture war online, and it, you it's it gets stoked every single day from the top but but the question is how do you even respond to somebody like that the fact that undocumented workers contribute billions of dollars in taxes and social security if people knew that it doesn't matter if you're left right if they knew the facts then they wouldn't say that right I mean look around who's working right so again to, what's been dangerous and hurtful is this thinking that immigrants are here just as labor.

We're just here to work. There was a great quote that I think someone from the EU said that, oh, we asked for workers and they gave us people, right? Because we are people. And but the reality is the way this administration, this very anti-immigrant administration, has been enacting policies, not only about undocumented immigrants, by the way. I mean, the reality is the assault is beyond the undocumented population, right?

They're going after people seeking asylum. They're banning foreign students. They're ending work permits for talented international students. They're banning new green cards for 60 days. And of course DACA, which I'm sure you're to you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you, right, right, right, right, 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 students, they're banning new green cards for 60 days. And of course DACA, which I'm sure you're aware about, right? Right now, so we have what? 200,000 DACA recipients who are literally fighting this pandemic? Hospital workers, food workers, farmers, teachers. And yet any day now, the Supreme Court can make a decision that says that they can no

longer be here. Yeah, one of the more confusing things for me that that struck me when I came to America was a little bit of the hypocrisy in the story because I was shocked when I found out that you could be an undocumented worker in America but pay taxes. In fact, the IRS is more than happy to collect the tax from you and so you're contributing to the society. More. more. more. More. More. More. More. More. More. More. More. More. More. More. More. More. More. More. More. More. More. More. More. to. to. to. to. I. I. I. I. I. I. to. I was. I was more. I was more. to be more. to be a to be more. I was more. I'm more. to be a to be a to. I was. I was. I was. I was a to. I was a to. I was. I was. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. And. And. And. And. And. And. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. the to. the to. the the to. the to. the to. the the the the to sex. More than happy. But then at the same time, people make it seem like you're not a part of that society. And then again, that story came to the fore in coronavirus. You know, you started seeing stories of how the meat processing plants, the farms, they said, hey, ah, we would appreciate it right now if you didn't raid us or anything because our workers are undocumented. The people who are getting the the the the the the th, thi thi thi thi thi thi thi to thi, to thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, to, th. to, th. thi, th. tho, thi, thi, thi, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, to to to their, to to to to to to to to their, to their, their, th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. thi, thi, thi, thi, tho, tho, tho, tho, thoooooooooooooooooooooo. their, their, their, their, thoooo. tho, th food, the people who are driving people around in Ubers, the people who are just, you know, getting you

around, getting your food to you, looking after you in hospitals, cleaning your house, whatever it is, these people are undocumented, and yet they seem to be very essential to the society. Do you think that there's a breakdown in how people perceive what an undocumented worker is? Absolutely. I mean that's why you th, when th, when th, when th, when th, when, when, when, when, the thi, thi, their, their, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, thr-I's, thr-I's, thruuu. is th. th. throooooooo. their, their, their, their, I mean, that's why, you know, when I came out as undocumented almost nine years ago now, my purpose is how do we change the narrative of this issue? How do we complicate it? How do we get it out of this Mexico border wall that is Stockton that helped elect Donald Trump?

When in reality, undocumented people live with people who are US citizens by birth, our green card. It's called the mixed status family. You know, like right now, you know, it's it's graduation season, right? So I don't know where I would be if it weren't for my teachers at Crittenden Middle School and at Mountain View High, right?

Like, before there was a DREAM Act, before anybody knew what this was, my teachers were the ones who like made sure that I was more than pieces of papers, right? And so right now, actually, at Defiant American, we're about to host an immigrant, like a graduation for immigrant students, from immigrant backgrounds, right? Because right now in this country, there's about 4 million K to 12th grade students who are immigrants or live with somebody who's undocumented. And the reality is this is a really difficult time. So how do we celebrate them? So we're hosting this big immigrant on Sunday at 3 p.m. Eastern Time.

Check it out. Go to the Fine American. tooomorrow some inspiration. Go on Instagram or Twitter or Facebook, and just type immigrat. And you see stories of like first th, th, th, th, their, their, their, their, their, their, th, th, their, their, th, th, their, th, their, thi, their, thi, thi, their, their, their, their, their, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, their, and, their, their, their, and, their, their, and, and, and, and, and, and, their, and, and, and, and, their, their, and, their, and, their, their, and, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, to, to, to, they.e.e.e.e.e.e.e.e.e.e.e.e.e.e. their, their, the second, third generation immigrant students who are here and are honoring their parents for the sacrifices that they've made just so they can be here. Jose, thank you so much for taking the time and we will tell people to try and check out the, you said it's immigrad. Immigrad. It's her virtual graduation at 3 p.m. thrown. There's a special ge thi her. She's great. So please check it out on Sunday.

Thank you. Thank you. Thank you so much, Jose. When we come back, Chris Paul joins us to talk about the other basketball documentary that's coming out now. Stay tuned. When 60 Minutes premiered in September 1968, there was nothing like it. This is 60 Minutes. It's a kind of a magazine for television. Very few have been given access to the treasures in our archives. But that's all about to change. Like none of this stuff gets looked at. That's what's incredible. I'm Seth Done of CBS News. Listen to 60 Minutes, a second look, starting September 17th,

wherever you get your podcasts. Welcome back to the Daily Social Distancing Show. Earlier today, I got the chance to talk to basketball superstar Chris Paul. He's the executive producer of Blackball, a new documentary out on Quibby about the Donald Sterling scandal. We talked about that and a little bit more. Chris Paul, welcome to the Daily Social Distancing Show. Man, I appreciate it. Thanks for having me. Before we get into like your documentary and everything you're doing in a world without sports,

I wanted to know what you are doing now. Like, where is Chris Paul? Because I've been entertained by where every single NBA player is, and th. And th. thiiii. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. their, th. their, th. th. th. th. thi, thi, thi, thi, and thi, and thi, and thi, and thi, and thi, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, th, th, th, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, they. they. they. they. they. they. they. they. they. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. what you are doing now. Like, where is Chris Paul? Because I've been entertained by where every single NBA player is and what they're doing in their lives. Like, Steph Curry was saying, he's had to build his own basketball hoops. You know, I know Jimmy Butler's, he's been training hard, like the playoffs for tomorrow. What are you doing in your life? Are you playing golf? Are you out? I'm training I'm a substitute teacher at times a little bit of everything and because I'm the president of

the Union I'm actually trying to figure out how we can get back to play so it's a whole lot of I'm I take Spanish twice a week you know I mean I'm staying busy yeah a lot of people may not know that about you, that you're the president of the Players Association, you have been for a long time. I mean, that must come with it a lot of pressure during this period because you've got so many people asking when the NBA's coming back, how does it come back safely, what's going to happen for the fans? We want to watch, the games. We want to be at the games, but everyone knows, to. to. to. to. to. to be. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thrown. thrown. thrown. thrown. thrown. thrown. thrown. thrown. the. the. th. th. That must must must must must must must must must must must must must must must must must must must. That. That. That's, th. That's, th. That's, th. That's, th. That's. That's. That's. That's. That's. That's. It. It. It. It. 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 a th. I must. I must th. I must the. I must th. I must the. I must th. I must must come. I must must must come. th. th. th. heard was that the NBA is gonna be played on like an island, like blood sport, and then you guys are just gonna play against each other and only the winning team comes home. Is that true?

Well, that's far from the truth. But, you know, his conversation is happening every day, every day just trying to figure out what's the safest way And like we want to play I think everybody wants us to play and I keep saying this like as a fan of the game Like I need something to watch on TV, you know what I mean? I don't watch possibly watch with my kids. It's time to start watching some sports. So we're working on it. Yeah, man. It feels like right now. The sports is on the back burner, but because of that, we've been introduced to another side of sports that we maybe haven't appreciated as much and that has been the story behind the sports. Everyone who's anyone is just obsessed with this new Michael Jordan documentary. You know, everyone's watching The Last Dance. I'm sure you have been as well.

Like, tell me from your side, as a player what it's been like watching a documentary about the behind the scenes of a sport that you're a professional in. And it's been so dope, Trevor. It's been so dope because I was a diehard Michael Joy fan growing up, right? And so I'm sponsored by Joy Brand. I actually know MJ personally and now that, you know, those years shaped me into wanting to be an NBA player. 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 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 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 last the th. the thea theau. theau. theau. theau. thea. thea. thea. the. the. the And now that, you know, those years shaped me into wanting to be an NBA player. You know, everybody like Mike. And so now that I'm in the NBA and I get a chance to see what he was like sort of on the plane

or like in the locker room. It's all so crazy. And I'm extremely grateful that he even allowed this footage to get out, right? Because he ain't have to do that. You're stepping into the space of being an executive producer. I mean, you've been in that game for a while now. But you're also producing content that, you know,

takes us behind the curtain. We get to see behind the sport. We get to see behind the stories stories stories stories stories stories stories stories stories stories stories stories stories stories stories stories stories stories stories stories stories stories stories stories stories stories stories stories stories stories stories stories stories stories stories stories stories stories stories stories stories stories stories stories stories stories stories stories stories stories stories stories stories stories stories stories stories stories stories stories that we saw, you know, maybe just as a headline. And I know you've got a new documentary coming out, which I think is going to, you know, it's going to address one of the biggest stories in sports that we saw. It was a flash in the pan and then it like sort of disappeared even though there were huge ramifications and that was of Donald Sterling and the Clippers. It's called Blackballed. Tell us a little bit about this documentary. Yeah, man, Blackboard. It's something that I'm glad I got a chance to be a part of

because sometimes when things happen, like right in that moment, you don't really appreciate it or take it all in of the ramifications and what's going on. So the fact that we had an opportunity to sit back and look at it and see the landscape the landscape tha landscape tha landscape tha landscape tha landscape that tha tha tha than than than than than than than and see the landscape that has, you know, transformed a lot of things, you know, as far as athletes speaking out on different issues, right, right, and seeing how at that time we were putting a tough situation, you know, because you got all these different people, political leaders, family members, they like, you need to do this, you shouldn't play, you can't play, what you're going to do? Then we also trying trying trying try also try also try also try also try also try also try also try also th. th. th. We th. We th. We th. We th. We th. We th. thi, that, that, that, that, that, that, 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 to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to their, to their, their, their, their, the. the. the. the. the. the. the the. the the. the the. the theat toooo. to to to do? Then we also try to beat Golden State, who was like one of our biggest rivals at the time.

You know, I'm over here getting phone calls from Al Sharpton and Jesse Jackson. And I'm trying to figure out how I'm a slowdown, Steph Curry and Clay Thompson. You know, so it's really dope and I'm excited for people. What do you hope people will learn from the documentary? Because for most people, the story was, there was a lot of tabloid. You know, it was Donald Sterling, who owns the clippers. He gets caught on a call saying racist things about Magic Johnson.

He's talking to his girlfriend. And it becomes this whirlwind of tabloid. But therethe human beings, the players, the people attached to the team, the stories that followed the games. Like what do you hope people learn from this documentary that they don't already know? And I think it goes right along the lines of what you just said as far as how, you know, a great documentary isn't about the game. It's about the the the the the the great, 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, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you know, you, you, you know, 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, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you the the the the the the the the the the the the th. th. th th th th th th thi, thi, thi, thi, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho. tho, tho, the th It's about the drama behind it and everything. And I think I hope everyone gets from this, how it's not about Donald Sterling, it's not about the series, the basketball game,

but everything that went into it, and all the different thoughts and perspectives that we were going through in the conversations we were having as a team of what should we do it, and how Dr. Rivers, our coach actually actually talked and communicated with us. You know, because in these situations a coach could just say, this is how we're going to do it, y'all listen, y'all do this. But we talked about it and we said we're going to have one voice and Doc was the perfect

voice for the situation. Let me ask you this question before I let you know. I know that you're working on another another another another another another another another another another another another another another another another another another another another another another another another another another another another another another another another show show. A the show. A the the the show. A th. A th. A th. A th. A th. A that you're that you're that you're that you're that you're that you're that you're that you're that you're going. I to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to that you're working on another another show about the NBA and coronavirus. And I found that really interesting because we all know where we were the day the NBA shut down because I feel like that was the tipping point of everything shutting down. You know a few people here and they were like, yeah, we might cancel this, we might postpone that, but then when the NBA said it's done, it felt like everything was done. And you're making a story about that that that that that that that that that that that that that th th th th th th th tel tel tel tel tel tel tel tel tel tel tel tel tel tel tel tel tel tel tel tel tel tel tel tel thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi the thi the the thi thi thi thi thi thi te te tel. I tel. I tel. I tell. I tell. I tell. I tell. I tell. tell. tell. I then when the NBA said it's done, it felt like everything was done. And you're making a story about that. So tell me, tell me rather about that, like, why do you think that day was so important and how did the ripple effects hit everyone in the

NBA? Yeah, so as you said earlier, being in that storytelling business, right? It's being able to tell stories and fortunately I've been a part of a lot of them, you know, and so with Brian Grazer and Antoine Fouca we decided we want to tell this story. And so it's basically, that's the name of the day that sports stopped. And like you said, everyone has a story and I I get an opportunity to tell about what led up to that day and what it was like in the locker room and then you know we have other athletes that's going to tell their stories of where they were and what it's been like. You know, because it literally everything stopped. Everything stopped and everything started shutting down and I think it's going to be really dope to put all that together because it's also not just from a athlete's perspective. We're telling the fans perspective too. Right.

Right. Because, you know, of course everybody wants to know, you know, what we were doing and how we reacted. But what about the fans or that kid who was about to go see his favorite player for the first time and now that's gone. Right, right. Yeah, it's a huge story, man. I'm excited for you. You know, I'm excited for Chris Paul, the executive producer, Chris Paul, the storyteller, Chris Paul, the substitute teacher,

Chris Paul, the Spanish speaker, Chris Paul, the golf player, and Chris Paul, NBA superstar, hopefully we'll be seeing you on the court sooner than later. Thank you for the time, my dude. I appreciate you, Trevor, Trevor, Trevor, Trevor, Trevor, Trevor, Trevor, Trevor, Trevor, Trevor, Trevor, Trevor, Trevor, Trevor, Trevor, Trevor, Trevor, Trevor, Trevor, Trevor, Trevor, Trevor, Trevor, Trevor, Trevor, Trevor, Trevor, Trevor, Trevor, Trevor, Trevor, Trevor, Trevor, Trevor, Trevor, Trevor, Trevor, Trevor, Trevor, Trevor, trtrtrtrtrtrtrtrtrtrtrtrtrev, trev, 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 story, the story, the story, the story, the story, the story, the story, the story, the the story, the true, true, true, the the story, the story, the story, the the story, the story, the story, the story, the story, the story, the story, the're going to get you some hooping lessons. Let's do that, man. I'll teach you soccer and then you do the hoops on my side. That's a deal. Yeah, all right, my man.
