Hey everybody, John Stewart here. I am here to tell you about my new podcast, The Weekly Show,
coming out every Thursday. We're going to be talking about the election, earnings calls.
What are they talking about on these earnings calls? We're going to be talking about
ingredient to bread ratio on sandwiches. I know you have a lot of options as far as
podcasts go, but how many of them come out on Thursday.
Listen to the weekly show with John Stewart, wherever you get your podcast.
You're listening to Comedy Central.
From the most trusted journalists at Comedy Central, it's America's only source for news.
This is the daily show with your host, Desi Leidig. Welcome to the Daily Show, I'm Zephyelig and I will be your host all week.
Unless the Supreme Court strikes that down.
They love ruling against women. It's a fun game we play.
We got a great show for you tonight, so let's get into it with our ongoing coverage of Indecision 2024.
Let's kick things off with Nikki Haley. She made a big announcement today, but it wasn't the one we were all expecting.
Some of you, perhaps a few of you in the media, came here today to see if I'm dropping out of
the race.
Well, I'm not.
Okay, well, just wait another week then.
Do what you want, but it's not a good sign for your campaign if you have to keep announcing
that you're not dropping out of the race. Nicke Haley's campaign
has reached the guest who doesn't know when to leave the party stage. Republican
voters are like, oh, oh god, I got to wake up early tomorrow and Nicky's like, oh let's
start a game of risk. And if this speech was supposed to convince people that she should stay in the race, I'm
not really sure it did.
We've all heard the calls for me to drop out.
The argument is familiar.
They say I haven't want to state that my path to victory is slim.
They point to the primary pulse and say I'm only delaying the inevitable.
Why keep fighting when the battle was
apparently over after Iowa? She's making a really good case against herself.
They say my campaign is making everyone sad that I'm a born loser whose own mother
wouldn't vote for her. They claim I have a 14% on rotten tomatoes and I'm
not even a movie. Anyway, what were we talking about? Although look if Haley
wants to stay in, it's her right. If her strategy is to just hope that Donald
Trump goes to prison for life, she wouldn't be the only one.
Game recognize game.
Speaking of Donald Trump, it's been a week now since Russian dissident Alexi Navalny mysteriously
died in prison after devoting his life to fighting Vladimir Putin's dictatorship.
And Donald Trump honored him in the only way he knows how, by making it about himself.
The former president, for his part, weighed in yesterday evening.
What he did was he shared an opinion piece on his social media website that compares
President Biden with Vladimir Putin and compares himself with Alexei Navalny.
This is utterly disgusting, but I have to give Trump credit.
I didn't realize he could make analogies.
Look at that.
He's got the double colon's and everything.
Little guys ready for the SATs.
But yes, it is unacceptable to compare Navalny with Trump.
Navalny sacrificed his life for democracy.
Donald Trump tried to sacrifice Mike Pence's life to kill democracy.
You could not find two men who are further apart than these two.
Now if you're stupid enough to believe that Donald Trump is a courageous freedom fighter like Alexei
then good news. Trump has some perfume he'd like to sell you.
New Trump branded Cologne. It's called Trump 47 with the former president's head at the
top of the bottle.
According to the website, selling the cologne, it smells of a crisp opening of citrus
blends into a cedar heart underpinned by a rich base of leather and amber.
The last time Trump was underpinned by a rich base of leather and amber, Amber had to
sign an NDA.
Also, I love the shape of that bottle.
Is that cologne or a vibrator from hell?
Also, I love the shape of that bottle.
Is that cologne or a vibrator from hell? The first vibrator that doesn't believe in the female orgasm.
Now you might think that this perfume is just a quick griff to help Trump after he was hit
with a $355 million judgment for fraud.
And based on their ad campaign, you would be right.
Confident, sexy, guilty of fraud.
Introducing Victory Victory 47.
The new fragrance from Donald Trump, that's definitely not a desperate cash grab.
You want to smell like this.
And now you can.
Grab her by the nostrils.
Donald Trump is an icon of grace and masculinity.
Take a whiff of victory 47.
Ah, a scent that tells everyone, I want to help a millionaire pay off as rape lawsuit.
Buy a bottle.
Buy 10,000 bottles.
Send Donald Trump money.
He really needs this.
Mortgage your condo.
Victory 47 is now available next to the discount candy at your local CBS.
Victory 47, smelling this good should be illegal and it probably is.
Now if you think hawking perfume is undignified for the frontrunner for president, excuse me,
don't worry it's not just perfume. Donald Trump introducing a new sneaker line
at a shoe conference in Philly over the
weekend.
This is that big crowd.
Appearing at SneakerCon in Philadelphia.
We're going to remember the young people and we're going to remember SneakerCon.
Your sneaker heads, right?
The former president took today to promote a money-making deal, having struck a naming
rights agreement for a limited-edition
sneaker line, the most expensive pair in the series, selling for $399.
That's the real deal.
That's the real deal.
Finally, a sneaker that won't make me feel bad when I accidentally step in shit. No, I'm kidding.
This is actually the perfect shoe to tell the world you're about to lose a game of one-on-one
by 50 points.
To be fair, though, at least when you give money to Trump, you actually get something
in return. If you give money to Democrats, all you get is 50,000 emails asking for more money. Send me a body spray, Nancy. But I don't know, who am I
to judge? I'm still wearing crocks from the first time they were popular. To find out what
real sneakerheads think about these shoes, we sent our very own Josh Johnson to investigate.
What's up world? I'm Josh Johnson and Donald Trump just released his new never surrender
high tops. There's only a thousand being released and 400 bucks a pop they will probably not
put a dent in the judgment against him. So I hit the streets today to talk some real sneaker
heads to see if these are cop or drop. They know I'm the bomb. Now what do you think of these sneakers? Um, you know it's is is is is is their their their their their their their their their their they's their they's they're they're they're they're their they're their they're think of these sneakers? You know, it's very patriotic.
I think that there's no rules in fashion.
You can wear whatever you want, but me, Percy, I would not.
Would you cop these?
Like, would you, you wouldn't?
No. Hard pass.
It looks very 2009 dated.
They actually, they look like they don't bend.
What are your thoughts on this shoe?
Trying to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to Trying to be chic, but also very nationalistic.
Got you.
Now would you wear this shoe?
No.
Okay.
So you think if you wore these to school, you might get roasted up?
Yeah.
Because what grade are you in?
You're in seventh grade?
Yeah.
How tall are you?
Six one?
I play basketball.
You should. Do you think there's a sort of like-mike situation where as soon as you put them on you get indicted?
Probably. If not indicted by the judicial system, it'll be indicted by society. Do you think they go up even higher or they go down if he goes to jail? I think if he goes to jail they're probably going like 20K something crazy. Really? Yeah, really? People are not th like. Do th. Do th. Do th. Do th. Do th. Do th. Do th. Do th. Do th. Do th. Do th. Do th. Do th. Do th. Do th. Do th. Do th. Do th. Do th. Do th. Do th. Do th. Do th th th thi th th thi- thi- their thi- thi- their thi- thi- thi- thi thi th. Do th. Do th. Do th. Do th. Do th. Do th.

People are nuts like that.
I'm wearing these, right?
I get robbed. They get taken off of me.
You're not going to get robbed for those brother.
Oh, okay. That's good to know. So this is really like robbery repellent right here.
Some people might try to give you tips on fashion. very symbolic of who you are as a person. So if you have fucked up shoes, might be a f-feepped-up person.
I mean, yeah, those are pretty bad,
but what about your shoes, dog?
What?
Those are some dirty-ass shoes, bro.
What?
Oh, hell not.
You're about to run a marathon?
It's really about the move.
It's really about trump. Is it? You're lucky you bigger than me, man.
All right.
When we come back, we'll find out the latest way Alabama has made history, so don't go away. Hey everybody, John Stewart here.
I am here to tell you about my new podcast, The Weekly Show, it's going to be coming out
every Thursday.
So exciting.
You'll be saying to yourself, TGID, thank God it's Thursday.
We're going to be talking about all the things that hopefully obsess you in the same way
that they obsess me, the election, economics, earnings calls.
What are they talking about on these earnings calls?
We're going to be talking about ingredient to bread ratio on sandwiches.
And I know that I listed that fourth,
but in importance, it's probably second.
I know you have a lot of options as far as podcasts go,
but how many of them come out on Thursday?
I mean, talk about innovative.
Listen to the weekly show with John Stewart, wherever you get your podcast.
Welcome back to the daily show.
Ever since Roe v. Wade was overturned two years ago,
women have been predicting that conservatives would go after other reproductive rights next.
And people said, how to the tell you. And people said, how? Daily show, ever since Roe v. Wade was overturned two years ago, women have been predicting
that conservatives would go after other reproductive rights next.
And people said, ha ha, there go those hysterical women being hysterical again.
Well, guess what?
This morning, a first of its kind decision by the Alabama Supreme Court that could put families
access to fertility treatments in the post-Roe era at risk. The case in question involved a patient who managed to access to the the the to to to the to to the to the to thetreatments in the post row era at risk. The case in question involved a patient who managed to
access the freezer storing frozen embryos at an Alabama fertility clinic.
The patient picked up multiple embryos and mistakenly dropped and destroyed them.
The state's high court says that patient can now be held liable in a wrongful death lawsuit.
The court determining frozen embryos qualify as people under its state law, ruling unborn
children are children without exception based on developmental stage.
That's right, the bar has been moved again.
From now on in Alabama, life begins when a man notices his first cousin is hot.
Just to clarify what's happening here,
tens of thousands of women have children using IVF every year.
And since it's not possible to do that without creating some excess embryos,
the state of Alabama has now ruled that starting a family is basically murder,
you know, pro-life.
And the way this ruling happened is so crazy.
This wasn't even intentional. They just dropped a test tube. And the way this ruling happened is so crazy.
This wasn't even intentional.
They just dropped a test tube.
You know, back in my day, we had something called the five-second rule, and it was sacred.
And I'm sorry, but it's just weird to say that frozen embryos are legally the same as children.
Last time I checked, you're not allowed to store kids in the freezer. And yeah, yeah, I have checked, and now I'm on some kind of CPS watch list.
Don't get me wrong, embryos are extremely precious to potential parents, but technically
they're just jizz and eggs.
That's not a child.
That's an appetizer at a very avant-garde Brooklyn restaurant.
For more on this court decision, we go live to an IVF clinic in Alabama with our very
own Ronnie Chang.
Ronnie, what do you think the fallout will be of this?
I'll tell you what the fallout is, Desi.
Turns out, I'm a father now. Ronnie, what do you think the fallout will be of this? I'll tell you what the fallout is, Desi.
Turns out, I'm a father now.
That's right, say hello the little Ronnie Jr.
Oh look, he's got his dad's eyes.
Rockabby baby. I don't know the rest of the lyrics to that.
Okay, okay, I can tell you're running a scam. I just don't know how yet.
No, no, no, this is not a scam, okay?
This is a legal child in the state of Alabama,
which means I get all the benefits of being a dad
without having to be a dad.
I get to claim him on my taxes.
I get paternity leave. I can can the the the the the to hang the the to hang the the the the to have, I'm, I the the the th lip. I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, tho, the the tho, tho, thathea, tho, tho, tho, t. t. t. t. t. t. t. t. t. t. t. t. t. t. t. t. t. t. t. t. t. t. t. t. t. t. t. t. t. t. t. t. t. t. t. t. t. t t t t t t t t t t t t today. today, today, today, tee. today, today, today at the McDonald's ball pit without getting hassled.
I mean, best of all, he's my excuse to get out shit I don't want to do.
Which reminds me, can we wrap this up already?
Because I gotta go feed my son.
Wait, how do you feed an embryo?
It's easy. You just pour little fish food in here.
Look, look, look, here comes the play! Oh! Oh!
No, Ronnie, don't worry, it's organic.
to the today.
to worry, it's organic.
Oh, thrown.
the act.
I know you hate kids.
No, no, no, Desire, I just hate your kids, okay.
Always like waving at me, hello? Goodby. I get it.
Ronnie, you're making a mockery of parenthood.
Hey, hey, well, okay, we'll take out with the state of Alabama, okay?
Because according to them, this is a human life, and it's so precious that people might go to
prison for messing with it.
So that means I'm a dad, free and clear. Oh no, Ronnie Jr.
Oh shit, oh shit, that's the cops, okay?
I thought we defunded those guys.
Desi, I gotta flee the state, okay?
You didn't see shit.
Okay, all right.
Good luck, Ronnie.
Ronnie Jay, everyone.
When we come back to Nye Guertonight, we'll be joining us,

Thank you guys.
Thank you.
And they're happy to see you.
And I'm happy to see you.
Thank you so much for being here.
Of course.
I am such a fan of your work.
You're an incredible actress and you command such a presence every time
you're on screen. These roles that you play, you play these extraordinary, powerful,
resilient, katana-wielding women. Do you ever feel like you just want to like
take a break and play Linda from HR? You know as long as she dresses cute. Yes. That's what I miss. I miss wearing cute clothes
when I go to work. Oh my god, I don't even think about that. Not just not having blood smeared
everywhere. Yeah, like that's the makeup. Yeah. You still. Good smearing and like dust. Get some
more dust on here, get some more dirt. That's perfect. Now, yeah. Yeah. Act. You still want to kill zombies. Don't to kill. Yeah. Yeah. the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the to get. Get. Get. Get. Get. Get. Get. Get. Get. Get. Get. Get. Get. Get. Get. Get. Get. Get. Get. Get. Get. Get. Get. Get. Get. Get. Get. G. G. G. Get. Get. t. G. G. G. G. G. G. G. G. G.

I. yeah, yeah, yeah. Don't take away the katana now. No.
Let me hold on to that.
I think you're managing it.
You manage to kill zombies.
Can I be in HR with a katana?
Sure.
Hey, I think it's an asset.
Yeah. We don't even have HR here, so. Our budget got cut. That's not true. thu. thu. thu not true. We'll edit that part out. What's so interesting to me about this series is that you're not only acting in it, but
you executive produce, you co-created it, you write on it.
Was it challenging, just juggling all the hats in one project?
Well it was actually, it was really cool because from where you start, you'd get a role
like, what was that, like 12 years ago, and it's in this show that was massive at the time
and it was just like, I'm just hoping I can keep this katana in my hand and not drop it
and when they're shooting, and then to go through this whole arc with the character
and the journey she's had, which has been treme, which trem tremendous tremendous tremendous tremendous tremendous tremendous tremendous tremendous tremendous tremendous tremendous tremendous tremendous tremendous tremendous tremendous tremendous tremendous tremendous tremendous, and threme, and th....
I'm very thankful for how she was written. And then to go into actually creating the spin-off
that like completes her story with the man who she loves,
with Rick Grimes.
That was a very cool arc.
I mean, the interesting parts of it were,
of course, executive producing is a lot of work.
But then I was also, there was an episode,
that I was show running, and Scott Gimble was like, don't to to to to to the the the to talk, don't to to the to the th, don't th, don't th, don't th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, thi, thi, tho, 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.., th., th., thin, and, thin, and, and, thr., throooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo, and, and, and't talk to me, talk to her, it's all her. And, you know, there are times I'm like in this very intense episode, and then I noticed
that the corpse in the scene doesn't look dead enough.
And I'm like, special effects make up, can you just help me with this a little bit?
So I have to jump out of Michone and make sure she looks good in three weeks dead. and then th s s s s s th th. And th. And th th. And th, and th, and then thuu- thu- thu-like thu-like thu-like thu-like thu-like thu-like thu-like thu-like thu-like th-like th-like th-like thu-up tho-like th-like th-like th-like tho-like th-like th-like th-like th-up th-up th-up th-up th-up, th-up th-up, th-up th. I was th. I was th. I th. I th, th. I th. I th. I th. I thu-up thu-in thu-in, thu-in thu-in thu. thu. thu. that-in that-in, that-wwcc-wo'-luce-luce-in, thc'-luce-luce-luce-luce-lipe-lipe-in thc-in then and then jump back in to the role. Of course
the Walking Dead fans are going to devour this like a zombie on flesh but
truly it stands on its own if you haven't watched the series it's it's its
own beast. Yeah thank you I think that's true because it really is the epic
love story of the series and if you haven't watched it you can really just latch in because you can see what's ha. th th th the the the the the the the th the the th. the the th. the the th. the th the th. th the th th the th the th th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. 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. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. thi's the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. thi's the. thi's thi's the. the. story of the series. And if you haven't watched it, you can really just latch in.
Because you can see what's happened to Rick
and what's happening with Michon and how they come together
and what happens there.
So it really kind of stands on its own.
And yeah, it was an interesting journey
to actually get the opportunity,
because Walking Dead was such a jognot of various narratives, big villains, and lots of their, and lots, and lots, and lots, and lots, and lots, and their, and their, and their, and their, and their, and their, and their, and their, and their, and their, and their, and their, and their, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, their, their, their, and, the, 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, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, the, the, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, they..... the they..a. the the the the the the the the the the the the they.a, the the th.a, th. ths going on. So to actually step into just these two and their journey
and a love story in the apocalypse
was it was really, really fun and intense.
Yes, you can feel that.
I can't wait to, maybe you would consider
sneaking me the rest of the episodes,
because I don't think I can wait until they come out.
I'll look into it. Yeah, now, the Walking Dead franchise is considered a sci-fi zombie apocalypse, but are
you concerned when you look at the state of the world?
Is it becoming a little bit more of a political drama?
I think they've been neck and neck for like 10 years.
Yeah.
I mean, what I love about the Walking Dead what attracted me to it, because I was scared
out of my mind of horror.
But what attracted me to it, when I was asked to audition for it in like 2012, was the
fact that, you know, it was about people, characters, like, who would, and everyone
is like, what would I be if the world ended, if everything that was convenient to me and normal to me just was gone.
And everything was just totally upended.
Who would I become?
And I think that is actually what attracts people to it.
It became like this family show.
Like we meet people like seven-year-olds to to see
that it was having that effect.
to their tooves who were watching it with their 14-year-olds. I mean, it was kind of amazing to see that it was having that effect.
But I think it was really just seeing people, all types of people,
navigate something that you can't imagine, but then you almost can.
And then everyone's like, okay, what would I do?
What would I become? If people tell me what they've got decked out for the, you know, the bad, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you the bad the bad the bad the bad thi, you thi, you thi, you thi, you thi, you thi, you thi, you thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, really thi, really thi, really thi, really thi, really thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi. thi. thi. thi. thi, thi, thi, thi, June's Day preppers. What's the craziest thing that a prepper has ever told you
that they're collecting?
Wow.
That's a good question.
I mean, you know, I've heard a lot about peanut butter.
Yeah, people like their peanut butter.
Yeah, people love peanut butter.
I collect that, just some under this desk. Do you want some? Actually I would buy some. Your
birthday just passed. Happy birthday. Her birthday is on Valentine's.
Yes. To celebrate you wrote this beautiful post. What was behind that message? And tell us a little bit about the foundation.
Yeah, I created Love Our Girls because I just think Valentine's Day is just,
it's just such a sucky holiday.
What is it really?
You know, people are expecting things, like, give me roses and candy.
And like, you know what I mean?
But I think it is beautiful in the sense to repurpose it about six, seven, eight years ago when I had a show on Broadway
and it was an all women play.
And I just wanted to like say, what if this day that has always been associated with the
day I was born so I can never disassociate from it?
What if it was just about love and loving girls more so that a lot of the things
that they face and the discriminations they face, and the celebrations they're, and they're, and th, and th, and the discriminations they face and the struggles they face and the celebrations that they face just get more attention on that day.
So I decided to make that kind of the theme of the idea of Love Our Girls, which is just like
an information hub.
It's just about, learn more about what girls and women are doing around the world and
celebrate them and support them.
And you can't create share information. So that's really all it is. It's just an informational hub to like celebrate women and girls and show them love.
Oh so beautiful. Thank you so much for the work that you do. All of the work and I
cannot wait to finish the series. You're incredible in it. The Walking Dead, the
On The Ones Who Live premieres February 25th on AMC and
AMC Plus, Deny Guerrera.
Thank you.
We're going to take a quick break, so they'll be right back after this.
Thank you.
Hey, everybody.
John Stewart here.

Now this is hardly the first surreal product that the former president has promoted.
There was Trump ice and ice trays, vodka, coffee, steaks, a cutting board, cookies, jelly beans,

a honey dipper, urine test kits, a magazine, a board game,
a speaker, gold-colored airbuds, cologne, his and her luxury robes,
sented candles, mattresses, pickleball paddles, a USB
drive in the shape of a gold bar, mortgages, diplomas, NFTs, and Never Surrender Merchandice
of course featuring his mugshot.
