We're going to be talking about the election, economics, ingredient to bread ratio on sandwiches. Listen to the weekly show with John Stewart, wherever you get your podcast. July 17, 2018. From Comedy Central's World News headquarters in New York York, this is the Daily Show with Trevor Noah, Ears Edition. Welcome to the Danishan, everybody.

I'm Trevor Noah, I'm Trevor Noah, take a seat, take a seat. Take a seat, my guest tonight, here to talk about his new album, World Renowned Rapper, Wiz Khalifa, is here everybody! And full disclosure, when I went backstage to meet him, I might have got a little bit. And full disclosure, when I went backstage to meet him, I might have got a little bit contact high. But first, let's catch up on today's headlines. Remember how when Barack Obama was president? Racist people kept telling him to go back to Africa?

Well, he finally listened. Former President Obama is in South Africa go back to Africa, well, he finally listened. Former President Obama is in South Africa this morning to make a rare, high-profile public speech. His remarks to about 15,000 people are the climax of celebrations marking the 100th anniversary of Nelson Mandela's birth. I believe in Nelson Mandela's vision. I believe in a vision shared by Gandhi and King and Abraham Lincoln.

Prior to arriving in Johannesburg, he visited his ancestral home in Kenya, where he opened a youth center run by his half-sister, and it didn't take much convincing to get Obama onto his feet from dancing. Yeah, yeah, that's right, America. You used to have a president who could dance and speak English. Oh, and I don't know if you noticed in the clip of Obama dancing. There's a woman in red, she's in a wheelchair. But watch what happens, she's in a wheelchair next to him. Look at this. Barak touches her. Look at that! What? Obama care works!

Look at that! Your premiums will rise, but so will you! Yeah, Barack Obama healed a woman in a wheelchair. You think Donald Trump can do that? Huh? I'll tell you this, Donald Trump would get the woman out of the wheelchair just so that he can sit in it. That's what he would do. I mean, finders keepers, folks. It's a miracle.

I have a chair now. Oh, in other news, today is World Emojy Day. Yes. Apple and the Unicode consortium announced more than 70 new emoes today. So, congratulations to women with curly hair, yeah? Uh, uh, uh, Storm from the X-Men. And this Irish dude in blackface, yeah. Really exciting times. Probably, probably the most useful new emogy, the mango.

Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. What better way to tell that special someone, I'm horny and my dick is shaped weird. All right, let's move on to today's top story. Now, unfortunately for America, Barack Obama isn't the president anymore. This guy is, right? And whoever you picked in this image, you're right. After President Trump threw America under the Russian bus, everyone stateside lost their shit.

And I do mean everyone. Republicans, Democrats, even Taylor Sriff's cats, who are famously apolitical. They all came down hard on Comrade Trump. The president chose Russia in front of everyone. You cannot cut deals with the devil and you can never trust Russian. One of the most disgraceful performances by an American president in memory. That's what made it disgusting. That's what made his performance disgusting. This entire trip has just been one giant middle finger from President Trump to his own country.

You stood there like a little wet noodle. I mean whatever happened to the strong words or to the strength of Ronald Reagan when he stood there at the Berlin Wall and he said, Mr. Gorbachev tear down this wall. What happened all that? Huh. Well you're the toughest guy in history, and now he's just like, I'll be back or not, it doesn't matter. Nothing matters anymore. Ha.

Now look, President Trump is no stranger to criticism, right? But it's not often that even his closest allies slam his actions. Even Newt Gingrich, former Speaker of the House and swollen Mike Pence, tweeted that this was the most serious mistake of Trump's presidency and that he must clarify what he meant. So, just like after Trump praised the Charlottesville Nazis, today, the president was forced to come out and pretend to believe something different than what he said. And I don't know if you guys believe in omens, but watch what happened. Let me begin by saying that, once again, the full faith and support for America's intelligence

agencies. I have a full faith in our intelligence agencies. Oops, they just turned off the light. That must be the intelligence agencies. There it goes. It's okay. You guys okay? That was strange. I like how he's checking if everyone else is okay.

But if you look at his body language, he was like, I have full faith and when the lights come on, he's like, everyone else okay? I'm cool. I'm cool. I wasn't scared at all, I'm cool. But that was insane. Trump tried to claim that he believes the intel agencies, and then the lights went off. It's like even electricity is tried to have tired of Trump's bullshit.

It was just like, no. Like, I wouldn't be shocked if one day, Trump just starts floating because gravity is like, I'm out. I can't deal with this guy. Or you know what, maybe it's something more simple. Maybe in the White House, instead of clapping, you just lie to activate the lights. Maybe that's what it is. Yeah, so when Trump wants a midnight snack, he just shouts.

No collusion. Make a snack. Yum, yum, yum, yum. time to a horrible start. I've said this many times, I accept our intelligent community's conclusion that Russia's meddling in the 2016 election took place. Could be other people also. There's a lot of people out there.

That's right. I mean there's Bob and there's Sarah and there's Mikey and Bruce Springsteen so many other people out there. What are you doing? All Trump had to say was that he believes Russia meddled in the election full stop. That's all he had to say. But he can't help himself. Like it's actually impressive how stubborn Donald Trump is. Like I would love to see 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 the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the. I there's there's there's there's there's there's there's there's there's there's there's there's there's there's there's there's there's 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 t. te. te. te. te. too. too. too. too. the. the. the. their the. their their their their their their to say. But he can't help himself. Like, it's actually impressive how stubborn Donald Trump is. Like, I would love to see Trump trying to get into heaven. You know, Peter would be like, to enter, all you need do is except Jesus is the one true savior. And be like, I believe Jesus is the one true savior. I mean, could be know. You never know.

But okay, okay. President Trump now says he believes American intelligence that Russia meddled in the 2016 election. Great. The problem is, just 24 hours ago, he repeatedly said the exact opposites. Would you now, with the whole world watching, tell President Putin, would you denounce what happened in 2016?

And would you warn him to never do it again? All I can do is ask the question. My people came to me, Dan Coates came to me and some others, they said they think it's Russia. I have President Putin. He just said it's not Russia. I will say this. I don't see any reason why it would be.

President Putin was extremely strong and powerful in his denial today. Ah, it feels like yesterday. So that was Trump being crystal clear about how he believed Russia over the US. Because you heard, he said when it came to hacking, I don't know why it would be Russia, would be. Then he flies back to America, I don't know why it would be Russia. Would be. Then he flies back to America, and all of a sudden that's changed. How do you convince people that one flight changed your mind completely? Well, the answer is not like this.

I thought it would be obvious, but I would like to clarify just in case it wasn't. In a key sentence in my remarks, I said the word would instead of wouldn't. The sentence should have been, I don't see any reason why I wouldn't or why it wouldn't be rushing. So just to repeat it, I said the word would instead of wouldn't. You know what, that makes sense. I actually believe Trump on this and I... Hold on, sorry, let me just check my notes. Sorry, what I meant to say was, get the fuck out of here, man.

I think that terrifying things, that's what I meant to say. Are you serious? The President and his team had 24 hours, 24 hours, to come up with the reason why Trump took Russia's side against America. And the best they could come up with is, nah-ah. Yeah, I'm sorry, but can you imagine if you tried that at a casino? Oh, no, wait, let me clarify. By black, I meant red. Yes. So, bitch, better have my money and for me for me this was the ballseest parts the sentence should have been I don't see any reason why it wouldn't be Russia sort of a double negative so you can put that in and I think that probably clarifies things pretty good by itself yeah yeah you're right

Mr. President. That was a double negative. You fucked up yesterday, and now you're fucked up today. That's true. But you can't just tell us to put in words, to correct the statement that you clearly meant. Because you realize we could fix anything that you've said by changing the right words. Just change a few words you could be like, Mexicans, they're bringing therapists, therapists, therapists, I forgot the Z-Foks, that's all.

So, so, so that's how, so that's how Trump tried to clean up his mess. And believe it or not, already, we're seeing some Republican leaders say that that was enough for them. Yeah. Because I know Trump said the bad thing, but now he added an apostrophe tea. Yeah. Yeah, and it works. Now I'm just waiting for Papa John to come out and be like, me too guys. I said niggint. Who wants pizza? Who wants pizza? We'll be right back. Finding great candidates to hire can be like trying to find a needle in a haystack.

Welcome back to the Daily Show. You know, some news stories help us understand the world we live in. And some news stories are just stupid. For those, we want to be rich, but be careful what you wish for because sometimes you can get so rich you start doing dumb shit like this. Silicon Valley is famous for its eccentric homes and outlandish property values, but the newest status symbol in the neighborhood is the chicken coop. Scott Vanderlip's chickens make themselves right at home. Are you gonna come in the neighborhood is the chicken coop. Scott Vanderlip's chickens make themselves right at home.

Are you going to come in the house? The software engineer believes he's found the perfect antidote to computers and code and has the big data to prove he's not alone. There are thousands, maybe 10,000 chicken coops in Silicon Valley. I mean, there are a lot of coops. That's right. Silicon Valley Mill I mean, there are a lot of coops. That's right, Silicon Valley millionaires are adopting chickens as pets. Because what do you get the person who has everything? How about bird flu? It's like they're so rich and comfortable,

the only thing left to do is pretend to be poor. And if that's true, why stop at Poultry Farmer Cosplay? Why not try donating your plasma for a can of soup, or, I don't know, cleaning windshields at traffic likes, or being a public schoolteacher, you know, poor people stop. And you're probably wondering, what do you even do with a pet chicken? Turns out, nothing. The birds sometimes get a break from eating bugs

with treats like melons and salmon. Caring for the chickens is a family affair. Justin and I, like, we will come home in the evening after a stressful day at work and pull up our chairs, and just like sit here and watch the chickens go crazy. Yeah, I don't think the chickens are the ones going crazy, all right? You're the ones drinking wine and watching birds poop on your lawn like it's Shakespeare in the park. You're Silicon Valley, what are you doing?

You give the world YouTube and Netflix, remember? You can't invite people over to Chicken and Chill. And it turns out, these people don't even care about the animals. They're just showing off. For the Valley's growing community of backyard farmers, the investment in heritage birds pays off in a status symbol of sorts. Colorful eggs that can be given as gifts to friends. Yeah, what a great gift. I love when I'm having a Super Bowl party and my rich friend brings over raw, pale, green eggs. Even the chickens must be like, what are you doing?

Those came out of my chicken pussy, and now you're hanging them out like Cuban cigars? Listen, if rich people want to own chickens like third-world farmers, whatever, right? The problem is when rich people pretend to be poor, they're still spending they're still spending with they're they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they they, they, they're they're they're they they they they they they they they they they, they, they, they, they they, they, they they, they they they, they, they they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they they they they they they they they to own chickens like third world farmers, whatever, right? The problem is when rich people pretend to be poor, they're still spending way too much money doing it. Online, companies are hatching plans for do-it-yourselfers to build stylish backyard coops. I built this coop, especially for them. Laura Menard's custom-built chicken coops have antique stained glass windows and detailing

added by a master carpenter. Do you think your chickens are happier in that than they might be in some simpler coop? No, I don't think they care. You don't think they care. I know they don't care, right? They're chickens. Oh, and by the way, if you're thinking about getting into this new chicken craze, I got some bad news.

You're already too late. They always tell people chickens are actually just the gateway drug to beekeeping. Bekeeping is the new thing, you know what? Are you suggesting that sometime soon somebody's going to say to me, I, backyard chickens, that's so 2018? That's Silicon their their their their their their their their their their their their their their chicken's their chicken's their chicken's their chicken's their chicken's their. I's so. Back. Back is so th. Back. Back is so that's so. Back. Back. Backy. Backy. Backy. Backy. Backy. Backy. that's that's that's that's that's to bea. Back. Back. Back. Back. Back. Back. Back. Back. Back. Back.

Hey, you just bought that new thing? Boom, it's obsolete. You like chickens?

Well, fuck you, it's bees now. But you know what, Trevor? I see what's happening here. Okay, we're just going further down the evolutionary chain. That's why I've already invested in the next, next trendy pet. All right, I'm talking about leeches! That's right, Silicon Valley, make like one of these guys and suck it. Bonnie Chang, everyone, we'll be right back.

Yeah, what's good. Welcome back. My guest tonight is a multi-platinum-selling recording artist, whose new album is called Rolling Papers 2. Please welcome, Wiz Khalifa! Welcome to the show. What's up, dude? This is the second time.

So, you, you, you, I met you. Welcome to the show. too the show. This is the the show. What's up, dude? This is the second time. So you, I met you backstage now, and I got high just meeting you. That's awesome. And I'm not joking, this is the second time.

There was one time I was flying out of LA, and you were ahead of me in the TSA line. And you had to like take everything off, and you were like taking it all off. And I'm standing behind you and it smelled like every Snoop Dog album. Yeah, yeah, yeah. And I remember on that I was like, oh I'm high and this is like the second time. Is this like you do this everywhere you go, you inspire people. Yeah, well I want people to get, I want you know what I'm saying? Exactly. I'm the homie, you know what I mean? Humanitarian. Yeah. That's who is Khalifa is. Before we get into the weed, let's talk about the album though. Rolling Papers 2. 25 songs on the album.

That's a lot of songs. Is that something you always planned? Why did you want to have 25 songs on the album? I've been working on this album for like three, close to four years. And early in the process, I asked my fans, like, should I make it a double album or not? And they all told me that I should make it a double album. So it was always my intention to release a lot of music. I just had to figure out a way to make it flow and the way to put to put it to put it all to put it all to put it all to put it all to put it all to put it all to put it all to put it all toogether but yeah I definitely wanted to give people a full course meal. Right and when like when you like we're talking now is that what we're doing? Why just ate a turkey burger so you. You announced the album right

you you you had the release date on Instagram and everything and you had a video of you bowling saying saying I'm good at everything yeah that's what are you a better rapper or bowler well I think I'm a better rapper than a bowler because I've got better rap stats, but I haven't had a perfect bowling game yet. So I'm almost there. Oh, but you good though. Oh yeah, my high score is like 280 something. Are you serious?

Yeah, yep. Have you got your own bowling shoes? I got shoes? Bob. We got shirts, we got a theam, it's lit. And do you bowl high? Stoned? Yeah, I genuinely just want to know. I'm like... You don't want to see me boss over. Oh, oh so like your talent comes from the... Okay, I like that. Yeah, I like that. Yeah, all right. It's been seven years since your your first studio album rolling papers. Why is it taken so long?

Well, I've just been growing growing pot But uh, for real for real like I have a really extensive catalog. Right is really really long, so I've been just, you know, you know, I'm try. I mean and now I'm back with another album where it's like okay let's let's get back to and then create another 10 15 years of legacy and people think you're joking about growing part but you you are really big into the legalization of weed absolutely you have a business Kalif Kush yes Right. How is the weed business going? Is it as booming as people say it is? Absolutely. It's really good. And it's super cool because people are not as afraid of pot as they used to be. So it's like they ingest it in different ways. They eat it, it's cream, it's like CBD where they've taken the THC, which got used to own. They took that, they took that out.

And now you can just enjoy the medicinal effects of it as well. So you have a choice. Have you found like people reacting differently? Because I mean like you say, people used to have this idea of like rappers. It was like this thing or you know like it was like the hippies that smoked the weed. Have you like met people who've changed, like you've seen a perception change? Absolutely, man, and it's crazy because these are people who probably not, never thought that they could change their mind about it. But just like you said, it's a totally different look.

And now getting stoned is more like on the low. It's more business people. people hitting G-pins and doing edibles at parties, like really upscale parties and things like that. So it's like a glass of wine now. Oh, I like that. Would you, would you, would you, would you, yeah, would you, so as a father, as a father, as, uh, ha ha. Ha ha ha. Ha, yeah.

As a dad, would you let your kids smoke weed? When he gets to the legal age, absolutely. Oh yeah? Does he know you smoke weed? Absolutely. How does he know? How did you know? It's hard not to know.

Oh, before I let you go, I wanted to talk to you about your body. The, um, no, this became a big thing online, you know, Wiz Khalifa was always known for being like this scraggly dude, like you were really tall, six foot four I think, really, really skinny, we always see with your top off and then one day there's a picture of you on the internet and it looked like someone had photoshopness. No, but you like you started working out. Yeah, yeah, yeah. You put on what, 30 pounds? 30 pounds, absolutely.

You look like you work out too, man. No, I just eat. You kind of like this in that suit, though, man. But how did you get 30 pounds on you? What did you, like, what did you do and how did you do and how, how, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, what, what, like, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what?.........

And they really got me to a point where I could maintain a solid weight and then, you know, learn about my body and things like that. And I started training Moitai as well, which is Thailand kickboxing. But there's plenty forms of it, everybody has different. But it's like, you know, those two, the combination the combination, the combination, the combination, the combination, the combination, the combination, the combination, the combination, the combination, the combination, the combination, the combination, the combination, the combination, the combination, the combination, the combination, the combination, the combination, the combination, the combination, together, together, together, together, I, together, thognea, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. than, thin, thin, thin, thin, thin, thin, thin, thin, thin, thin, than, is, that, is that's, that's, that's, thin, tha. that's, tha. tha. tha. tha. tha. tha. tha. tha., the combination together, I've been doing it for a year. And that's the cool thing about the internet is people don't pay attention to anything.

So it's like, it's under the radar to like one day. I'm like, you know what I mean? So it was cool, man. I'm just happy to everybody's happy for me.

I see myself making a whole lot of music. I have a label Taylor Gang and I have a lot of other people who's been working on Music Burner, Tuki. We got producers like TM and things like that.
