Starting point is 00:00:00 You're listening to Comedy Central. 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 obsessed 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.
Starting point is 00:00:40 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. September 9th, 2019. From Comedy Central's World News Headquarters in New York, this is the Daily Show everybody. Thank you so much for tuning in. Thank you for coming out. Man, you feel amazing. I'm Trevor Noah. Our guest tonight is one of the queer eye, Fab 5, out now with a brand new book. Anthony Parofsky is joining us everybody.
Starting point is 00:01:38 I'm Trevor. told you're a guest to-night is one of the Eye, Fab Five, out now with a brand new book. Anthony Parofsky is joining us everybody. Also on tonight's show, O'Dell Beckham Jr. plays football with a house on his wrist. Voters grab a politician's butt. And Alabama, you might want to prepare yourself, because the hurricane is totally coming back. So let's catch up on today's headlines.
Starting point is 00:02:06 Let's kick it off with an update on that big college cheating scandal. TV star Felicity Huffman has now pled guilty to paying a service to fake her daughter's test scores, and prosecutors are asking a judge to throw the book at her. Felicity Huffman is scheduled to be sentenced next week for her role in the massive college admissions scandal. Federal prosecutors are calling for Huffman to serve one month in jail, plus a $20,000 fine. Prosecutors say Huffman's conduct was deliberate and manifestly criminal, writing to the judge, in the context of this case,
Starting point is 00:02:43 neither probation or home confinement in a large home in the Hollywood Hills with an infinity pool would constitute meaningful punishment. Yep, that's right. The prosecutors don't want Felicity Huffman to be sentenced to house arrest because this is her house. Which is a good point, let's be honest. I mean, if my punishment was living in that house, I'd be robbing banks every day.
Starting point is 00:03:06 I'd just be like, oh, I did it again. Seriously, it's not a punishment if it has an infinity pool, right? That's just a fact. Now, if it was house arrest and there was an above-ground pool, that is different. Yeah, that's actually cruel and unusual punishment. Her lawyers would be like, just keep her the electric chair, your honor, please. No human being should be forced to swim in Tupperware while the neighbors watch, please. But honestly, I, like, I'm not sure what her punishment should be. Because I still say, I think America sends too many people to prison. But at the same time, you can't give someone like Felicity Huffman community service. Her community is just rich Hollywood people, like, what's the service?
Starting point is 00:03:46 Really? What? Do you have to go to their house and cut Harvey Weinstein out of all the photos they have with him? What do you do? What do you do? Frankly, the whole idea of house arrest is weird to me as a concept. Because it doesn't work for rich people, arrest also doesn't work for homeless people because then you're just free. So actually it's great. In other news, presidential candidate Andrew Yang is currently polling in sixth place. But you wouldn't know it from the media coverage he gets.
Starting point is 00:04:18 In fact, Yang only ranks 13th in cable news mentions, which probably explains why he has to get attention with stunts like this. A Democratic presidential candidate is taking his campaign to New Heights, literally. Check this out. Andrew Yang does crowd surfing. Andrew Yang. The businessman turned 2020 candidates speaking at a forum organized by Asian American activist groups.
Starting point is 00:04:43 When he was hoisted into the air, he twitted out the video writing, having crowd-surfed in a while, hashtag Yang gang. Yeah, yin yang. Andrew Yang is crowd surfing. And I know it looks fun, but for a politician, that's really risky. Because you're making so many people grab your ass.
Starting point is 00:05:00 That's a scandal waiting to happen. Yeah, you basically have to get to get to get to get to get to get to get to get to get to get to to to the to the to to the to the the to to the to the to to the to to the to to to to to to to to to to to the the the the to 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 thoomoomoomeaq......... th. tooooooooooooooooooooooom... together. th th th th th th th thean....... scandal waiting to happen. Yeah. You basically have to get permission individually with every single person that you go part. It's going to be like the slowest crowd surf ever. You'll be like, do you consent to my ass? Do you consent to my ass? Do you consent to my ass? Do you consent to my ass? Thank you. Thank you. But you realize now that Yang has done it. I bet other candidates also going to try and be 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 the slow asoes ss the slow asoesur-surf their their coesseau coes se their their their their their their their the slow as their the slow as the slow as the slow as the slow as their the slow as their their their coes their coes their coes their coes se se se se se se se sea ss to to to to theirseoesuoesuoesuoesuo-surdoseo-surf. too-surf too-surf too-surf ever tooa-surf ever too-s And I gotta hand it, I gotta hand it to Andrew Yang. He's not getting a ton of media coverage, so he's out there getting that attention for himself. Crowdsurfing, playing basketball, doing the Cupid shuffle. Only problem is Andrew, you realize you're gonna have to keep escalating your stunts.
Starting point is 00:05:43 At this rate in six months, he's going to have to go full Tom Cruise. My flagship proposal, the Freedom Dividend, would put $1,000 a month into the hands of every American adult, be a game changer for millions of American families. I don't know why he flew spirit airlines. Anyway, let's move on now to America's war on people having a good time. Sorry, I mean war on drugs, which recently scored another victory. Customs Agency's an extra spicy delivery of jalapeno peppers at a port near San Diego. 7,500 pounds of marijuana said to be worth more than $2 million didn't fool the K9 unit, sniffing it out in the pepper shipment.
Starting point is 00:06:22 It was the second multi-million dollar shipment of pot intercepted there within the last few days. God damn! Nearly four tons of weed, four tons of weed were discovered into the US inside of jalapenos. And honestly, I'm glad that they caught it. I don't want dangerous substances being smuggled in with my weed. Although, it would have been funny if, if they their their, if, if, if, if, if, if, if, if, if their, if their, if their, if, if their, if their, if they in, if theyine, if, if their, if, if, if they their their, their, 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 their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, 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 thineineineineineineineineineineineine, tyneneyneigh, tyneigh, today, today, today, today, thin, thin, thinine, thinine, the the the they caught it. I don't want dangerous substances being smuggled in with my weed. Although, it would have been funny if they didn't catch some and then someone ate the weed and the jalapenos at the same time. It would be such a mix of emotions, be like,
Starting point is 00:06:56 ha ha ha ha ha. All right, moving on. Being president is such a pressure full job, you know, it's important for the presidents to find a way to let off steam. Obama played basketball, George W. Bush cleared brush on his branch. Lincoln liked going to the theater. Yeah, it took his mind of things. But when it comes too soon, but when it comes to President Trump, his passion is beefing. Beefing with his enemies. And this weekend, he was going at it hard.
Starting point is 00:07:27 So let's catch up on who the president is beefing with now in another installment of Donald J. Trump, commander in beef. I'm gonna hit them back. And if I give him a whack. I think I could take this guy in and I fight him out of it. the crap out of it. Would you like to punch to punch to punch to punch to punch to punch to punch to punch to punch to punch to punch to punch to punch to punch to punch to punch to punch to punch to punch to punch to punch to punch to punch to punch to punch the face. First up in the controversy, that just won't die. It's President Trump versus the weather. Eight days after he incorrectly warned Alabama that Hurricane Dorian was headed its way, Trump
Starting point is 00:07:57 is still insisting that he was right all along. After falsely warning that Alabama remained threatened by Hurricane Dorian, President Trump spent the week digging in, displaying that map doctored with a Sharpie, posting 11 tweets over seven days insisting he was right, even directing his homeland security and counterterrorism advisor to release a 225 word statement. Mr. Trump said in a tweet, I would like very much to stop referring to this ridiculous story, but the lamestream media just won't let it alone. Yes, according to his tweets,
Starting point is 00:08:31 Trump wishes he could end this beef, but he can't. Because, you see, every time he tweets, the media reports on his tweets. the media reports, and their the media, the media, the media, their, their, their, thiiiiiiiiii. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. th. th. thea. the. 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. t. t t t t t t t t t t t t t t ttthe tf. tf. twea. twea. twea. twea. twea. twea. twea. twea. thea. thea he tweets a response to the misery's report. And then they report on his response, and then it keeps going on, and then it comes back around, and it goes and it just gets stronger. It's basically like nuclear energy, only a lot more stupid, okay? And you realize there's a chance that this hurricane beef
Starting point is 00:08:54 might never end. And I mean never. Like when Trump is like a hundred years old. his deathbed surrounded by the people he loves and Eric. And he'll still be like, I was right about Alabama. Be! And then CNN will report on it and then Trump will come back from the dead. I was right. I told you I was right.
Starting point is 00:09:18 I was right. And you know, it would be one thing if Trump was just obsessively tweeting about this hurricane for a week, but now he's dragging the rest of the government into his shitstorm. Minutes ago, the New York Times reported that Commerce Secretary Wilbur Ross threatened to fire top employees at NOAA after its Birmingham office contradicted the president's claim that Dorian might strike Alabama. And that story broke after the Washington Post reported earlier that Noah's the 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, thi, thi's, thi's, thi's, thi's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's 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's thr-i's thr-n-nau-s thrau-s, thrau-s, thrau-s, thrau-na' thra, thra, thra, that Dorian might strike Alabama. And that story broke after the Washington Post reported earlier that Noah's chief scientist will investigate why the agency
Starting point is 00:09:50 backed the president over its own experts on Dorian. Yes, it turns out President Trump is so embarrassed by his hurricane blunder that his administration threatened to fire any weather officials who wouldn't back up his alternative facts. And guys, the NOAA doesn't have time to any weather officials who wouldn't back up his alternative facts. And guys, the NOAA doesn't have time for this. Their job is to monitor hurricanes. They're distracted by Trump's beefs. You realize what could happen.
Starting point is 00:10:18 We could have a giant backlog of hurricanes. They can't come in. Yeah. Because without their hurricane permits, they're not allowed to come into the country. It's a whole process. You have to get your name, your category. It's just like they're waiting in line like,
Starting point is 00:10:31 hey, what's going on? We're trying to get in. It's just like a whole thing. And while the Weather Service is trying to deal with true he's already started another one. The president also sparked a beef with John Legend and his wife, Chrissy Teegan, last night. It apparently happened after he watched an MSMBC special with Lester Holt and John Legend on efforts to fix the broken criminal justice system. He tweeted in part, guys like boring musician John Legend
Starting point is 00:10:59 and his filthy-mouthed wife are talking now about how great it is, but I didn't see them around when we needed help getting it past. John Legend responded, tweeting this. Melania, please praise this man, he needs you. Chrissy Teagan also responded, her tweet, we cannot put on air due to its vulgarity. That's right. Donald Trump lashed out at John Legend and Chrissy Tegan because he feels like they're taking credit for achieving criminal justice reform instead of giving him the
Starting point is 00:11:30 praise. Now John Legend and Chrissy Tegan both hit back at the commander in tweet. You saw John's reply, but Chrissy Tegan's response was too vulgar for the news to repeat. Luckily, we're not the news. So, here it is. Trump called her John Legend's filthy-mouthed wife. But because he didn't have the guts to tag her on Twitter, Chrissy Tegan called him a pussy ass bitch. And to be honest, to be honest, I don't know why the news can't say that on air. It's a well-known medical condition in which a bitch's ass is replaced by a pussy. And I think the more we talk about in society, the more we can destigmatize the serious
Starting point is 00:12:28 disease. So, Trump's beefing with the weather, and he's beefing with celebrities, but there's one Trump beef that might actually have major real-world consequences. A developing story out of Washington this morning. President Trump revealing in a tweet that he had been planning a secret meeting with the Taliban. Tonight the White House had hoped to surprise the world with the Taliban at Camp David signing a peace deal. As President Trump tweeted Saturday night unbeknownst to almost everyone, the major Taliban leaders and separately the president of Afghanistan
Starting point is 00:13:04 were going to secretly meet with me at Camp David. But the president canceled the secret summit after Thursday's suicide bombing at a Kabul checkpoint. Trump said in his tweet that he immediately canceled the peace talks asking, how many more decades are they willing to fight? Okay, this story is wild. Over the weekend, Trump tweeted out that he was canceling a secret meeting
Starting point is 00:13:26 he had planned with the Taliban because they had launched an attack in Afghanistan. And this came out of the blue because no one knew Trump had scheduled peace talks with the Taliban. Like what Trump did he was like, your best friend tell and you're like, I didn't even know you were think you's like, yeah, dude, it just wasn't going to work out. She killed 11 people in Afghanistan. It was crazy. This whole thing was what?
Starting point is 00:13:49 Did you hear what they said? They were like, they wanted to surprise. Yeah, everyone would have been surprised. If they're like, the televan's at Camp David. I'm sorry, what? You're still confused by the story, you're not the only one. But as far as we can understand from what's being reported, here's what they say, rarely happened. Over the past nine years, the US government has been trying to get a peace deal with the Taliban to end the war in Afghanistan, right?
Starting point is 00:14:14 And the past few weeks, it looked like that that deal was close to happening. But when Trump heard about this deal, he thrass. the deal. the deal. the deal. the deal. the deal. the deal. the deal. the deal. the deal. the deal. the dealthat the Taliban come to Camp David in America to sign the deal with him on camera so that he would get the praise. But the Taliban didn't want to come to America. Firstly, because they don't trust the United States, which I understand, they're like, we're not coming there. And secondly, because they probably don't want to deal with the TSA. Can you imagine how stressful that's going to be for the the the their their their thiiii? thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi their thi thi thi thi thi the the the the thi thi thi the deal the deal thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi the the the th. So the th. So th. So th. So th. So the deal th. So the deal th. So the deal the deal the deal th. So the deal the deal the deal the deal the deal the deal the deal the deal the deal the deal the deal the deal the deal the deal the deal thi thi thi the thi the thea thea thea thea' thea'ea'ea'ea'ea'ea'ea'ea'ea thi.ea thi. Soe they probably don't want to deal with the TSA. Can you imagine how stressful that shit's going to be for them? Just going to come in as the Taliban. You have to fill out the little forms.
Starting point is 00:14:59 The guy the TSA is going to be like, so what do you do for a living? I'm the leader of the Taliban. So you're a terrorist? Yes, but not for this the the the the leader of the Taliban. So you're a terrorist? Yeah, yes, but not for this trip, okay? Not for this trip. This time, I'm off the clock. So the Taliban refused to come to America. And Trump tweets out, no, I'm breaking up with you guys.
Starting point is 00:15:16 And so there is a possibility symptom of a pussy ass bitch. We'll be right back. Hey everybody, John Stewart here. I am here to tell you about my new podcast, The Weekly Show coming out every Thursday. We're gonna be talking about the election, earnings calls. What are they talking about on these earnings calls? We're gonna 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. Welcome back to the day to show.
Starting point is 00:16:13 So, this was a big weekend in the world of sports, which means it's time for another edition of I apologize for talking while you were talking. Oh, what's up sports fans? I'm Michael Costum. the tree. Oh, what's up sports fans? I'm Michael Costum. My usual partner, Roywood Jr. is not with us. He's a way getting his belly button enlarged. But it's all good, because I'm joined by my man with a normal belly button,
Starting point is 00:16:42 Jabuki. Are you ready to be a professional sports commentator? Well, I actually don't know a lot about sports. Well, then you're perfect. Let's start with tennis. This weekend was the final Grand Slam, and as usual, it did not disappoint. Now that thrilling US Opened, Rafael Nadol, match last night lasting almost five hours it's his 19th career Grand Slam. Then on Saturday, 19-year-old tennis phenom!
Starting point is 00:17:08 Bianca Andrescu beating Serena Williams in straight sets to win the women's title. She apologized to Serena was kind of cute. I know you guys wanted Serena to win so I'm so sorry. Wow. She won the US Open and then she apologized apologized for. That has to be the most Canadian thing ever. That's more Canadian than eating Poitine out of the Stanley Cup. But you know what? It is Serena. She's a legend, man. If I was playing her, I'd apologize every time I returned the ball. Okay. I'd just be like, uh, sorry. You're a queen, Sle. I love you. throwne. thu. the the the thu. Srese. Srese. Srese. Srese. S, th. S, th. S, th. S, th. S, th. S, th. S, th. S, th. S, th. S, th. th. th. th. th. th. th. S, thi. th. th. th. th. thine. thine. thine. thine. th. th. Sa. Sa. S. Sa. S. Sa. Sa. S. S. S. S. S. S. S. S. S. S. S. S. S. S. S. S. S. S. S. S. S. S. S. S. S. S. S. S. S. S. S. S. S. S. S. S. S. S. S. S. S. S. S. S. S. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. That's... This wasn't even close, Jabuki. Andrescu beat Serena in straight sets.
Starting point is 00:17:47 She got wrapped, packed, and sent home to Mama. Send home to Mama, what is that supposed to mean? Oh, that's right. You don't know how this works. It's a sportscaster thing. You just kind of cartoonishly exaggerate how somebody got I could do that, yeah. Yeah, okay, you can. Andraski didn't just beat Serena. She grabbed her, stabbed her, and cut her f-h-head off. Okay, that's, we'll work on that. You know Jay by Dubbin, one season comes to an end, another begins.
Starting point is 00:18:12 That's right, the NFL is back. Yes, an opening weekend was. Speaking of New York Losing, one former Giants player came back, flashier than ever. Odo Beckham, Jr. made his debut with the Cleveland Browns yesterday, but it says Flex that has a lot of people talking. So fans quickly noticed that Beckham was wearing a watch during actual game action, which is pretty unusual, you know, for contact sport. But a closer look at the watch revealed that it wasn't just any watch. It was a Richard Millie watch. I've never heard of it.
Starting point is 00:18:47 USA Today reports it is a model watch price at $350,000. This dude wore a watch worth hundreds of thousands of dollars to play football. I don't feel comfortable wearing my good jeans if I think I'm going to eat spaghetti that night. And here's where it's tough, Jabuki. I eat spaghetti every night. Dude, your life sounds awful. But wait, is that a thing? Like do other football players wear watches when they play? Contact sports don't allow it. Football players can't wear watches because it's dangerous. Baseball players can't wear watches because they'll be checking them the whole time, you know? I've been out here for five hours, only the third inning. Jabuki, here's what O'Dell needs to learn.
Starting point is 00:19:30 O'Dell, all right? You got to quit being flashy and focus on the team. You're making the big bucks now. O'Dell, you got a lead by example. Oh, wait, up? He's not actually watching as a professional sportscaster, you act like you're telling the athlete what to do, but really just talking to our viewers. Okay, so you're a guy telling other guys what you would tell another guy, and then you go home and you eat spaghetti.
Starting point is 00:19:57 Damn man, your life is awful. Let's move on, okay? Because the biggest news about the NFL is about a player who didn't even play. This is the NFL's opening weekend and there has already been a lot of drama. Star-wide receiver Antonio Brown was cut from the Oakland Raiders just hours after asking to be released from the team. This was the moment Brown found out he had been freed. The! I don't know what you ever eat! Oh! The freedom of bad me?
Starting point is 00:20:28 You got me flying like a free! Fly like the eagle! Grandma, they free me! Ha ha! They free me, grandma! I'm not gonna lie. This feels like what would happen if we had Twitter back during slavery. Okay, now you know how Antonio Brown handled the Raiders? He wrapped him, he packed him, and he set him home to Mama. Yeah, I guess you could say he tripped him, he flipped him, and then he sent him a box of handthrack. This, you know, this is not working out, Roy. I hope your belly button gets bigger soon. We'll be back next week with another 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 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. th.

Starting point is 00:21:06 Trevor, back to you. Michael Kuffman, Jabuki Yon Yon, everybody. We'll be right back. John Stewart here. Unbelievably, the weekly show, we're gonna 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. Welcome back to the Daily Show. My guest tonight is the food expert on the Emmy award-winning Netflix series, Queer Eye,
Starting point is 00:21:46 and an author who has a new cookbook called Anthony in the kitchen. Please welcome, Anthony Parovsky. Hi. Welcome, my friend. Thank you for having. So good to finally have you on the show. As a fan of what you do on Queer Eye, as a fan of your cooking, I've been lucky enough to taste your cooking. And then when I heard you were coming out with a cookbook, I was like, this is, it's a match made in heaven.
Starting point is 00:22:23 Are you ready to give away your secrets though? I am. It was th was th was th was th was th was a thuuuuu is th was a th was a thuu is thu is thu is thu is a thu is a thu is a thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi to to to thi thi thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. 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 thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thii. thiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii. thii. thi. thii. thi. thi. thi. thi. It's kids. Are you ready to give away your secrets, though? I am. It was a long time coming. It's still just seeing my face on a book and thinking how much time went into it and just knowing that it's there is like, you know what, everything is surreal thrown. You know what making people's lives surreal though. That's what you do on queer. That's what makes it such a fun show. You go around America, you just like get in people's lives.
Starting point is 00:22:47 One thing I enjoyed about what you do specifically on the show is you connect people with their food. Something that has, I feel like has been a disconnect in America, especially for a long time, where people just go like, think it's so much more than that. I mean, it's it's how you say, I love you, it's how you say I'm sorry to someone, it connects you to your roots where you came from. It's how you meet new friends. Like when you came over, it's the medium for me for everything. It's my love language. And I think especially in like, it's a messed up world. And I think that it's an incredible incredible the the the the the the thiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii that it's an incredible that it's an incredible thiii thi that it's an incredible thi thi thi thi thi that's an incredible thi thia that's a that's a that's a that's a toeou-a to to to to to say to say to to say to to say 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 that's that's thi. the. that's the. that's that's the. that's the. that's that's the. that's that's that's that's toe. toe. toe. toe. toe a messed up world. And I think that it's an incredible opportunity to just connect with other people and break bread and have conversations.
Starting point is 00:23:29 Yeah, quite literally breaking bread. I mean, you know, that's what makes it. There's no bread recipe in the book. But, you know, That's for the next one. Yeah, but it really is's a social experience. It's a beautiful vibe that you have a food. You have a connection with it though, it really does feel like a love language. You know what I, I've read a lot of cookbooks
