Survivor 47 is here, which means we're bringing you a brand new season of the only official survivor podcast on fire.
And this season we are joined by fan favorite and Survivor 46 runner-up, Charlie, Charlie, I'm excited to do this together.
Thanks, Jeff. So excited to be here, and I can't wait to bring you inside the mind of a survivor player for season 47.
Listen to On Fire the official
Survivor podcast starting September 18th 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 Leidick
and Michael Costa! Welcome to the Daily Show.
I'm Michael Kostra.
I'm Dizzy Leidick. We got a lot of news to get into.
Russia medals in its own election.
Spring break might be broken.
And when life gives Elon Musk lemons, he fires them.
But first, let's get into our ongoing coverage of Indecision 2024.
Donald Trump has had a good week. He sealed the GOP nomination, one of his 54 trials was postponed, and he just figured out you can Google boobs.
The man should be on top of the world, but some of his thii trials was postponed, and he just figured out you can Google Boob's.
The man should be on top of the world, but some of his close friends in the right-wing
media are concerned.
And I know you have supporters, friends, family.
They say it's lonely at the top.
And I'm actually curious, is it ever lonely for you?
What a ridiculous question for a journalist to ask.
Of course he's not lonely.
He saw his wife just six months ago.
Like Walter Cronkite over here.
Trump answered this question the way he answers every question by saying whatever was
on the top of his mind at that moment.
I study history.
And I was always told that Andrew Jackson as a president was treated the
absolute worst.
He was just really lambasted.
And I heard Abraham Lincoln was second, but he was in a thing called the Civil War.
I don't care.
Andrew Jackson or anybody else, nobody has true.
When you think of the fake things, nobody's been treated like Trump in terms of
badly. Yes, in terms of badly, Trump has been treated the badliest.
Although maybe Lincoln was treated a little bit worse, what with being shot in the head and all, but...
I doubt he was on his deathbed saying, at least I didn't have a pee tape rumor.
That's it.
Good point.
And by the way, how mistreated could Andrew Jackson have been?
The man's on the $20 bill.
I use that bill every day.
It's the one I give to the homeless.
I asked for $19 back, but that's not the point.
Plus, back then, even if the press wrote a horrible story about you, half the country was illiterate. You know?
Honey, do you see that article about Andrew Jackson?
No, I can't read either.
Well, then why'd we buy this newspaper?
I mean, let's move on.
Because not all the influential, powerful men in the world have been getting such easy questions this week.
This morning, a high-profile deal between two unlikely partners imploding.
After a confrontational interview between former CNN anchor Don Lemon and Elon Musk
turned tense during a taping of the new the Don Lemon show that was supposed to debut next
week on Must Platform X.
Hate speech on the platform is up.
Do you believe that X and you have some responsibility to moderate hate speech on the platform is up. Do you believe that X and you have some responsibility
to moderate hate speech on the platform?
I don't have to answer his question.
Great replacement theory as it relates to Jewish people.
Do you think that?
I don't have to answer questions from reporters.
Don, the only reason I've done this interview is because you're on the ex-platthafew.
And you asked for it.
Otherwise I would would the the the the other I I their their to to to to to to to to to to to to to the to to to to the the to to to the to be, says he received a short text from must that read,
contract is canceled.
Ooh.
Now, to be fair to Elon, though, you never really expect to hire someone and immediately
be asked about the Jewish great replacement theory.
Usually want to wait for the Christmas party to do that.
I'm sorry, between Trump and Elon, when did all these macho men become such pussies?
You know, aren't you the ones who complain about the snowflakes and liberal victimhood?
When Elon bought Twitter, he was like, this is free speech, Town Square baby.
And then anytime somebody criticizes him, he's like, the Town Square is closed for repairs.
This is terrible.
Teddy Roosevelt's critics shot him during a speech,
and he didn't even go to the hospital,
which shows, one, how tough he is,
and two, how terrible health care was back then.
But look, these alpha males today get one tough question,
and they start whining like my kid when I tell him he can't watch cars two for the eighth time today. Daddy, it's not fair. Well, you know what else isn't fair, son? It's not fair that I, a grown man,
know all the words to cars, too.
Yeah.
It's very sad, Costa.
It is.
Very sad.
Let's move on to the big news in the travel industry.
The guy at Boeing whose job it is to stay home from work yet again.
This morning, an American Airlines Boeing triple 7 traveling from Dallas to Los
Angeles forced to make an emergency landing after reports of mechanical problems.
This video capturing the moment the plane carrying 249 people touch down at LAX airport
with a possible flat tire. This comes on the heels of several other incidents on
Boeing planes in recent days. On Monday, hydraulic fluid began leaking from the bottom of this Boeing triple
seven. Boeing failed dozens of FAA audits with nearly 100 instances of noncompliance. After
that door plug flew off a 737 max 9 in January. Boeing, what is going on with you?
There should be no leaking fluids on planes.
Unless you were the guy on the diarrhea plane.
He's grandfathered in.
He can leak anywhere he wants.
At this point, Boeing's competitors barely even need PR departments.
They look so good for doing just the bare minimum. Airbus, we
don't have any screws left over in the bag.
Nice.
Look, I have to say at this point I'm just done with Boeing airplanes. Back to cruise ships for me where nothing bad ever happened.
Well, you know who's not worried about Boeing, does he?
Me. All right, yeah. A door fell off and there was a leak.
But guess what? The plane still landed. Boeing should be advertising that.
Boeing.
We forgot some screws, but you still made it to Tampa.
They agree. You know what's way less safe than flying? Taking a car to the airport.
My driver this morning passed a semi-truck by cutting through a playground.
So, no, I'm not worried about Boeing.
The truth is, even with the doors falling off, air travel is still the safest way to get around.
So, yeah, I'm going to keep flying.
I even flew here today from Brooklyn.
So, I don't mind if a door flies off now and then.
In fact, I wouldn't mind if a few more doors flew off.
If more people were scared of flying, I could get through security a thak lot faster. I've got all the things. Precheck, global entry, clear,
clear plus, clear plus with ads. And I'm still waiting 15 minutes for a guy to fold up his
stroller for the first time in his life. And if you disagree, too bad, because planes
are the only game in town. What, I'm not going to fly to Vegas from my college buddies
fantasy football draft, grow up. Let's move on to some international news because the U.S. isn't the only country having an
election this year.
Russians will head to the polls for three days beginning Friday to vote in a presidential
election.
That has Vladimir Putin seeking a fifth term.
President Putin is urging voters to cast ballots as a show of patriotism.
Every vote you cast is valued and meaningful.
Therefore, I urge you to exercise your right to vote.
You heard Vladimir Putin, every vote in this Russian election is valued and meaningful,
which is why the winner of this race is completely up in the air. That's right. Anything can happen, Desi. So of course
we're going to go all out with a complete team coverage in another installment
of Democracy 2024.
204. Let's start over at the election center with Ronnie Chang.
Ronnie, what are the results showing so far?
Ronnie, what are the results showing so far?
Oh, it's a tight race, Michael. Let's look at the map here.
The red areas are where Poon is winning so far.
He's doing well with urban voters, farmers, dead people,
dead people of college degrees, and women inside of larger women.
All right.
Sounds like he's doing great.
Can we just call the race for him?
Well, let's not get ahead of ourselves, okay?
Take a look at this area right here, just outside of Moscow.
Okay?
You can see he's in real danger falling below 99% in this region,
so we're going to have to watch that as the night progresses.
I mean, it's democracy, anything can happen.
Ronnie, I think that 1% just went down to 0%.
Oh, wow.
Oh, wow. It did.
Want to come back for Putin?
I told you anything can happen.
Thank you so much, Ronnie.
Great analysis.
Great analysis.
All right, for a look at the situation on the ground,
let's go live to Moscow with some fresh exit poles and Troy Iwata.
Troy, what are you learning?
Desi, we're learning a lot about why Russians are so drawn to Vladimir Putin.
Listen to these exit poll results. First, 94% of voters said they did not want to accidentally fall out of a window.
And 96% said they did not want to be poisoned.
So those are the top two issues, third being Putin's age.
OK, so voters are worried about Putin being too old.
No, they're saying Putin is so robust for a 71-year-old
that he might do too good a job.
Also, the falling out of a window thing.
They can't emphasize that enough. Yes, yes, I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I they can they can see I they can see I they can see I can see I can see they can see th. I can see th. I can see th. I. Yes, yes, I can see how that would be a concern. How much longer are the polls open?
Until 9 p.m. and Russian officials are telling voters if you're in line, stay in line or there will be consequences.
Okay. Well, thank you, Troy. I mean, geez. Of course, you know, Putin was not running on opposed. So let's go to the opposition the opposition the opposition the opposition the opposition the opposition the opposition the opposition the opposition the opposition the opposition the opposition the opposition the opposition the opposition the opposition the opposition the opposition the opposition the opposition the opposition the opposition the opposition the opposition the opposition the opposition the opposition. the opposition. the opposition. the opposition. the o' the o' the the the the the the their. their. their. their. their. their. the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the their. the the. the. the. the. the. 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. tho. th. th. tho. th. th. th. th not running on a post. So let's go to the opposition's election night party with Grace Coolin Schmidt.
Grace.
the mood in there.
It's grim.
There's no music, no food.
We're on an ice flow in the East Siberian Sea and it's a cash bar.
Wait, you're on an ice float? That doesn't sound like you're at a party.
Well, it's less of a party and more of a floating prison.
But whether we live or die out here, it's still less depressing than the Hillary 2016 parties.
Oh. Okay, good luck. And finally let's go to the Putin victory party at the Kremlin parties. Oh. OK, good luck.
And finally, let's go to the Putin victory party
at the Kremlin with Jordan Clepper.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Jordan, you've been to a lot of political rallies.
How does this compare?
It's great, Michael.
No notes.
What a win for democracy.
Really, you're not going to do that thi to the the p. the p, the p the p the p. the p. the p. the p. the p. the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the thi- thi- thia- thia- thi- thi- thia- thi. thi. thi- do that thing where you talk to the cooks who are blindly faithful to their party leader?
No, Michael. Everybody is normal here and I have no reason to question or subversively mock anyone, okay?
Putin 2024! Rush is a free and open democracy.
Speak your mind. Let's hear some cutting barbs.
Are you trying to get me f-feekelled?
Oh, hey!
Hey, hey, pre-yet, Mr. President?
Six four years.
Six hundred more years.
Yes, yes.
Good luck in November.
Wait, he has another election this November.
Oh, a big one, just not in Russia.
Okay, thank you everyone.
Great to see democracy in action.
So true, and we come back, spring break, don't go away. Hey guys, this is Tom Seguerite.
And I'm Burke Cricer.
And you're listening to Two Bears One Cave, or you should be listening to Two Bears One Cave.
Or you should be listening to Two Bears One Cave.
We are on Spotify. On Spotify. And we are not smart? That's an understatement. But you'll
have a lot of fun hopefully. I think you might enjoy it if you give us a
listen. If you got your perfect blood work back from your doctor and you have
full permission to tie one on, make sure you check out two bears one
cave. It's with me, Tom Seger and my co-host Bert Chrysler, the Machine.
My shirt's off.
Welcome back to the daily show.
Let's talk about spring break.
The most exciting week of the year for college students and gonorrhea.
Let's talk about spring break.
The most exciting week of the year for college students
and gonorrhea.
Goneria, not that bad.
Of course, one of the hottest spring break destinations is Florida, where the beaches are as bountiful
as the meth dealers.
But in recent years, the fun has been getting dangerously out of hand and one Florida city
has had enough.
Miami Beach is breaking up with spring break.
Shutting down spring break in Miami?
This year, city officials told those spring breakers to go somewhere else.
Restrictions, including the closing of the beach at 6 p.m.
and liquor stores at 8.
To drive the message home, a public service announcement that's gone viral.
Miami Beach, telling rowdy spring breakers,
it's you.
Maybe we can talk when you're done with your spring break phase.
Miami is shutting down spring break? Where else will college students be able to get alcohol
poisoning and have terrible sex with each other? And who is Miami to get upset with
spring break? One in three people there is a DJ? Are they like, keep it down? I'm
trying to be super loud over here. Now because of the crackdown, many students
have decided to go to Fort Lauderdale instead of Miami. But that's not a
good idea either because one, it's Fort Lauderdale and two, the cops there
are hassling spring break in a way that might even be worse. The brainbreak descending on Fort Lauderdale, Florida,
with huge crowds flocking there after Miami put in strict curfews and restrictions.
But Fort Lauderdale police are turning the festivities into a possible job offer.
We're out here, just spreading the message that we're recruiting right now actively for police.
Sing alongs trivia games to Fort Lauderdale Police, having fun with spring breakers.
Are you guys ready?
All right, you got your thinking caps on?
You're ready to go?
Obviously they don't have their thinking caps on.
Then they'd get a thinking cap tan line.
But, I'm sorry, do you know how bad your spring break has to be to want to become a cop afterwards? Usually when college students get blackout drunk, they wake up with a penis sharpied on their face.
These kids are waking up like, why do I have a police bad?
How do you even try to convince spring breakers to become cops? Are you just like walking down the beach?
You guys are in good shape? Would you be willing to get out of shape? Hey, I see you're blowing a... I see you're blowing all your parents' money. How'd you like
to blow an entire city's money? See you're not solving a murder at the moment. Would you
like to get paid to not solve a murder? I notice you've been sitting doing nothing
for six straight hours. You want to keep doing that but with a gun?
Crushed a lot of beer today. I want to keep doing that but with a gun? Of course if you
don't want to go to Florida, there are literally hundreds of other fun places of other, there's
one other fun place for you to go on spring break. And that's New Orleans. And to prove the big easy to the big easy, to prosese, to go, to go, to go, to go, to go, to go, to go, to go, to go, to go, to go, to go, to go, 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 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 th.. th. 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 to to to to to Orleans and to prove the big easy still knows how to party here's Fox News with a major scoop. I had the opportunity to talk to one lady
yesterday young lady she's a senior at Texas Tech and she told me and when I
asked her what does she do the prep for spring break she says she applies her
bronzer and then she does cocaine and that really goes to the
heart of this that's some story. She applies the bronzer before she does the line of coke.
She wants to look good before she gets hot.
I've never heard it before.
Right?
That's crazy and she admitted that.
Oh, stop.
I mean, this isn't the first time Fox has talked to someone who's abusing bronzer
and cocaine. They've been covering the trumps for nine years. Hey! Yeah!
Take it.
At least she's doing it in the right order.
I mean, this one time, I snorted bronzer and applied cocaine, and it totally ruined my
grandmother's funeral.
But the point is, spring break can be risky.
People are abusing drugs, they're getting in
the trouble, they're considering careers in law enforcement, it's frightening
stuff and that's why for the sake of yourself and for your future kids, drop out
of college. It's the only way you can avoid spring break altogether.
Great advice Michael. Stick around because when we come back Renee Elise Goldsbury is here.
That's right.
That's right.
The candidates for November are set.
Between now and election day. We are not going back. A campaign season unfolding faster.

I love that. It's right here. I love that you missed it. We missed it. And Girls by Beva,
Season 3 dropping now. Today?
Today, it drops today on Netflix.
On Netflix.
This show is honestly one of my favorite comedy shows of all time.
It is so, so funny.
There are so many jokes per minute.
You almost have to watch each episode multiple times to try to catch everything.
And your character is so funny.
She's like the total standout. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you.
Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you.
T. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. It's easy to say when I'm here.
tele. to say when I'm here show that clip that you just saw at the premiere
and everyone missed the third joke
because they were laughing at the first one.
That's just how funny is you have to watch it several times,
which is good because it's streaming.
Yes!
So you get a good.
It's a dream come true of a job.
We laugh hysterically.
I just spent the entire night putting together my BTS reel
to post on Instagram because now I can and I just remembered it's how much joy we have.
It's so fun.
It's the season three is coming out now but you've done, you did season one season one season
two before that. Tell people if they didn't catch it when it first came out.
What it's about? Wouldn't you like to know?
No.
Girls Fiveva is about a one-hit wonder group, pop group from the 90s, who discovers in present
day that their one hit has been sampled by a rap star. And so they decide that they are back.
In the first season, in the first season they decide they're going to stay together. In the second
season they make an album called Returnity. And in the third season they go on tour. That's
what's hot and new. All three seasons are on Netflix, but the third season is hot and new.
You find us in Fort Worth, Texas. We've written a song. We've written a song, it's called, um, tap into your
Fort Worth. We do it because we discovered it. There's the Tony. That's the Tony right there.
No, we basically discovered there's a hole in the market. It's like the biggest city
that doesn't have a song about it. Yeah. I wonder why. So we make a song called Tap into your Fort Worth and you find us in the beginning of
season three, killing in Fort Worth.
She was also in Hamilton.
Yes, good job.
Good job.
I wanted to ask you because the show is frustratingly funny and seems to me.
the show is frustratingly funny and seems at ease.
How are you reading the jokes in the script and then saying, here's what I'm going to bring to it? I mean, is it the actors adding things?
Or is that all in the script?
I mean, there's so many fucking jokes in this thing.
It makes me angry.
I know, I know.
So is that you, is it the script?
Is it all, is it everybody working together? It's funny that you mention Hamilton because it reminds me of that. You're in Hamilton. I was. I say it as often as I possibly can.
No, it's sometimes you find yourself in a perfect storm.
The writers are brilliant.
It's Meredith Scardino and Tina Fay.
Anybody like 30 Rock?
Anyone else?
It's that team of writers and producers.
There's the greatest design team. We have all these wonderful songs? th. then. then. then. then. then. then. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. I the. I thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi. I the it's th. I th. I th th th th th th th th th th th th th. I I I I I I I I I I th. I I I I I I th. I I I I I I I I th.

I say it's the. I say it's that team of writers and producers. There's the greatest design team.
We have all these wonderful songs.
Let me tell you about the cast.
Sarah Borellis, Paul Appell, Busy Phillips.
We have, there's a lot of flashbacks between the 90s and today so that we can just kind
of figure out what went wrong.
There was a lot that kind of went wrong in the 90s that we weren't aware of. Sometimes
it's fun to just kind of tap into the misogyny of these pop groups in the 90s. Why'd you look at me
when you say? It's unbelievable. No, it's true and you do touch on all of that. Women, when
you look back on how female pop stars were treated in the 90s and the early thirly. thoroughly ats. It's like it's atrocious. It is. I actually was that and I was
definitely in my 20s and the 90s trying to be a pop star. I didn't even have
one hit so I'm actually kind of proud of this group but I I do I had no idea I
used to be in a in a group that was trying to get signed and we had a
song called oh oh yes you can, find you a good man,
but when you do, you gotta treat them right.
Make sure your love is out of sight now.
Now, I mean, come on, you guys.
Yeah.
You're clapping.
You're clapping, but in reality, like, there are so many songs we could write about something other than finding a good man. Yeah, that's, yes. That's what we get to do to do th. to do to do to do to do to do to do to do to do to do to do th. But, um to do to do th. But, um to do th. th. th. But, um, um, um, um, um, th. But, th. But, th. But, th. But, th. But, um, um, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but th, but th. But, but th. But, but th. But, but th. But, but th. But, th. But, th. But, th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. the, the, the, the, that, th. the. that, the, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, like there are so many songs we could write
about something other than finding a good man.
Yeah, that's what we get to do on the show.
Sarah Borrellis plays the character Dawn
and we know that she's a brilliant Grammy-award-winning songwriter,
but it's fun to watch her
try to figure out how to write songs badly on this show. Your character is so, she's so incredibly confident
and really demands the attention of everyone in the room,
almost to the point where she's sort of a little derange.
Almost deranged.
She is, she is very self-obsessed.
Just shy of it, but on the paper it could read like that,
but you have a way of making her so relatable and endearing.
And you root for her. How do you do that? Well, I root for her. It's, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th. th. 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 thi. for her. How do you do that?
Well, I root for her.
It's funny.
I think our experience with anything
is really about our perspective in the moment.
Right now, I am a woman of a certain age
who would love to have a pop album,
who would love to try to make it.
But I'm always looking at myself,
that's a ridiculous thing to ask at this age to be a bubble gum pop star at 50 years old that seems
ridiculous to ask and I love the fact that I'm on the show where someone is
trying. I love the fact that this crazy group of people gives himself the
license to dream. It's really more than funny in that way. So yeah she's very obnoxious, she's very self-centered. She's the reason why the group broke up the, group, the group, group, the the the their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, throwne, throwne, throwne, throwne, thr-s, thr-s, thr-s, thr-s thr-s, thr-s thr-s thr-s tho, tho, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th is th is th is th is th is th is thi thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, throwne, thr-s, throwne. throwne. thr-s, throwne. throwne thr-s, thr-s, thr-s, thr-s But, you know, it helps you realize, you know,
no matter how bad you mess up, you have another,
you have an opportunity for a second shot.
And, yeah, and we can understand why anybody,
that ambition is so strong,
it makes you want to root for them.
That's one of my favorite parts of these characters is they make fun of themselves,
but they still dream.
And they make fun of themselves, but they still dream. And they aspire. And my question for you is, is that you in real life as well?
And how do we keep aspiring?
How do we keep aspiring?
Right?
And I had this question.
And people said, Michael, are you going to ask her that silly?
And I said, I want to know how I'm going to keep aspiring.
Because you are a dreamer. Can, can, can, can, can, th th th th th th th th th th they they they they they they they they they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're to.

have a song. You can. They're optimistic, yet doing the, they are aware of their faults
and I love it. So, that's the key. Yeah, how do you keep aspiring. First of all, I think
that's the beauty. You surround yourself with people that don't laugh at you. Right. Unless it motivates you're, unless it motivates you're, 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 be, to be to be to be to be to be the the the their, tho, their, their, their. their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their.

They, their, they. they. they. their optimistic. their optimistic. tho, optimistic. tho. thooooome. thooooooomorrow, optimistic. tho. thooooo. they're optimistic. their optimistic. They're optimistic, the at, because that works too. But you surround yourself by people that are trying to do what you're doing.
I think that's hugely important and you have to talk about it a lot.
And what I love about the character Wicke, I love that she just has these audacious ideas.
In season 3 of Girls 5 Eva, she books them a gig at radio city music. thanks, she's a big swings. All the money they've made to do this.
It's obnoxious.
It's ridiculous.
Like, you kind of need somebody out there that takes big swings,
because it's either going to decimate you
or you're going to pull something off and move forward.
That's a, I have to channel your inner Wikiroy. Because I sometimes would love to be able to channel WikiRoy.
I put on a lot of hair.
I put on a lot of hair.
There it is.
And I get somebody to put some eyelashes on.
No, I actually turn the show on, believe it or not.
That sounds so obnoxious.
That's so obnoxious. You know, I feel bad to turn myself on television. But I actually am doing that this season because I love, I just love the audacity of these
women.
I think it's super funny.
We started doing the show in the middle of COVID when it was just good to be in breathing
around other people.
I think we gave each other a lot of crazy messaging during the last couple of years because
we had to survive.
And that was distance means safety.
I think this show proves that that's not true.
And I just feel, I feel when I look at these women
that it's okay to have a license to dream.
I think it's okay to be ridiculously ambitious.
I think it's okay to join together with your friends at any age and sing harmony and dress alike? You talked about wanting to be a pop star and that's seeming ridiculous,
but you have your own album coming out.
I do. I do. It's coming out in 2024.
It is a...
Yeah, I've been writing music for a long time.
I've been a lyricist for a long time.
And I've had the great privilege of being able to sing a lot of 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 tho tho tho tho tho tho tho tho tho tho tho the thi thi the tho tho tho tho tho tho tho tho tho tho tho tho the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the th been a lyricist for a long time and I've had
the great privilege of being able to sing a lot of other people's lyrics like
Lynn Manuel Miranda's and Jonathan Larson's and I was in Hamilton. Have I said
that? Did you know? So yeah but I'm excited about the audience that we have on
our own at the stage of our lives. I'm excited about the fact that I actually have more followers than girls five ever.
So why not try?
And but most importantly, I do believe that it's never too late to try something new.
And there are women of every age that are killing it right now.
I mean, look, there are just, there are are just I remember when we first started doing this show Jennifer Lopez was doing
a pole dancing at the halftime show at the Super Bowl. Yeah. Like I love the
fact that we are we are celebrating those women right now. We should be
celebrating those women because they're inspiring us that it is never
too late to have a country album Beyonce. Yes. It's never it's never too late. To have a country album, Beyonce. Yes. It's never too late to reinvent yourself.
That's right.
Well, you are an inspiration.
You're so funny in the show.
Congratulations on season three.
Congratulations on the new album.
Thank you.
