Starting point is 00:01:08 This is 60 Minutes. It's a kind of a magazine for television. Very few have been given access to the treasures in our archives. You're rolling. But that's all about to change. Like none of this stuff gets looked at. That's what's incredible. I'm Seth Done of CBS News. Listen to 60 utes, a second look, starting September 17th, wherever you get your podcasts. So how many of you accidentally or purposefully eat the sticker on the fruit? Does anybody do that? Because this was a big thing online.
Starting point is 00:01:39 People were arguing about whether or not you can eat the sticker that they put on the fruit? And like a lot of people like, yeah, you're supposed th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. thi. th. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. th. th. thi. thi. thi. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. 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. th. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. th. th. th. the sticker that they put on the fruit. And like a lot of people are like, yeah you're supposed to eat it, it's edible, and then other people like you should not be eating stickers on the fruit. It was like a whole fight. It was a whole fight. My thing was, really there was just two things. Number one, who are you that you do not have ah, there's a stick I don't have time, I'm like, to save lives. Like, who are you? Take the time, look at the thing and peel it. Do you know what I'm saying? It's like, but then at the same time, there's also the people who are like, this, you can't eat a sticker. It's the worst thing that will happen. It's not the worst. They thiiii hot dogs, I mean, you're the kind of person who looks at life and just goes like, yeah, man, fuck around, let's find out. That's what a hot dog is. You know what a hot dog is. You know, do you know what I'm seeing? You're just the kind of person who's just like, yeah hot dog you're like, ah, let's see. Let's see what's going on, baby. I'm all about that life.
Starting point is 00:02:46 But I mean, I don't know if you should eat the sticker, you know what I'm saying? I didn't know you could eat the sticker until this argument, by the way. Until I saw this. Then the New York Times did a piece on this. And then the FDA York Times could be doing. Yeah. It's weird to be like in a newsroom and there's just people like that. You know? What are you looking at? I'm looking at what's happening at the Russian border with Ukraine.
Starting point is 00:03:12 What are you looking into? I'm investigating these new vaccines. And you, you guys notice a sticker on fruit? You think we should eat it or not eat it? I'm going to do a 300- I a word word article on this guys. We're all journalists here Count down to that person writing a hit piece on me Well played New York Times journalist why Trevor Noah is worse than the stickers on fruits Well played.
Starting point is 00:03:41 Coming to you from the heart of Times Square in New York City, the only city in America. It's the Daily Show, Ears Edition. Tonight, anime can get you in trouble. Marching bands are racist. And Dwayne Wayne Wayne. This is the Daily Show with Trevor Noah. Hey, what's going on everybody? Welcome to the Daily Show. I'm Trevor Noah. Hey, what's going on everybody? Welcome to the Daily Show.
Starting point is 00:04:06 I'm Trevor Noah. And joining me for today's headlines is our very own Desi Lydick. What's going on, Desi? Hey, Trevor. How you doing? Yeah? I'm just, you know, prepping for Thanksgiving, getting ready. I'm not hosting this year, which is a huge rea but I am in charge of the dressing, which is kind of a huge responsibility.
Starting point is 00:04:25 Dressing all of my uncles? Finding clothes for all 16 of them? That's a lot. I think the dressing has... You know what, Desi? Good for you. By the way, do you know where I can find a bunch of camo hats? No, I don't. Sorry, I took an edible before I got here.
Starting point is 00:04:46 I didn't know I was going to be on today. Well, that's fine, Desi. Just relax and breathe and we'll be good. Okay, cool. Yeah. You okay? Happy Thanksgiving, Dizzy. You good? Hmm. Okay.
Starting point is 00:05:03 We'll come back. You shout if you need anything. Okay. All right. Let's jump right into today's headlines. We kick things off with today's big basketball story. And no, I'm not talking about everyone dunking on the Eternals. I'm talking about an iconic stadium that's taking on a brand new identity. After 22 years, Staples Center in downtown Los Angeles is getting a new name, and it's a real sign of the Times. Beginning Christmas Day, the home of the Lakers, Clippers, and Kings, will be known as Crypto. Crippers' tra-coaer. The Clippers play here, too.
Starting point is 00:05:35 The Crippers'ippers play here too. You know, it'd be weird. This is, uh, you know, I grew up. This being Staples and Staples being, you know, the place to play and the place to be. It's kind of like just stripping the history here. Well, I mean, I don't know if you need to get that sentimental, Paul. You know, it's not like Staples S sta st st st stthe ancestors. It's a store where you buy 50 packs of binders even though you only need one, you know, when you get home you find out they were the wrong size anyway. You don't need to get that nostalgic about it. Like it's company. And if you do want to get nostalgic, just wait. Just wait. I promise you soon, change that name to nanobot X arena or whatever your kids will be upset about that. Back in my day this stadium wasn't about
Starting point is 00:06:28 the latest fat it was about swapping blockchain currencies on a digital market exchange there was culture attached to it you know NFTs and look this this shouldn't come as a surprise but anywhere a team can advertise they're gonna advertise right the stadiums to advertise. All right, the stadiums, the jerseys, the court. They literally started showing commercials during free throws, you realize that. We're two months away from the NBA selling name rights to the score. It's going to be like, and the game ends with a score of 84 to Mountain Dew. A big win for the lakeors or a big loss, I can't tell what's happening. But I mean, can you blame the arena, though? If people are offering you a shitload of money to use their name, you do it!
Starting point is 00:07:08 I mean, that's what I did. I sold my naming rights to a guy named Trevor Noah for 40 bucks. What, what, you know this? Come on, do I look like a Trevor? My real name is Bert Pekowski. I'm sorry, I just can't stop picturing them removing the Staples logo with one of those giant staple removes. Just the giant claw. Sorry, the edibles kicking it, I think. I need to know what edibles these are.
Starting point is 00:07:35 All right, let's move on from sports to music. And the woman that everyone is talking about right now. Taylor Swift, pop star, songwriter, an inventor of the color red. Personally, I love Taylor Swift. I'm huge fan. Really nothing bad to say about her. But even if I had something bad to say about her, I wouldn't. I wouldn't say it. Because Taylor Swi's fans are super protective of her. Like, they're like one of those old fashion dads with a shotgun who doesn't want you to marry his daughter. You see, Taylor Swift has thuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu, to to to to to to to to to th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, thi, th thi, thi, thi, thi, thu-s, thu-s, th. th. th. I'm th. I 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. I th. I thin, thin, ta. ta. ta. ta. ta. telauuuu. tauu. ta. telluu. ta. ta. ta. ta, ta, because he wants to marry her. You see, Taylor Swift has been re-recording all of her old albums, which means people are re-listening to all of her old songs
Starting point is 00:08:11 about her famous exes, and then getting mad at those exes all over again on her behalf. And while Taylor may be content to address her old boyfriends with heartfelt lyrics and songs that are, again, I want to stress this perfect in every way. Some of her fans are a lot less subtle. This is going a little too far. While Jake Johan Hall is taking incoming fire from the Swifties, another one of Taylor's exes is being bombarded with messages now. A user on Instagram sent John Mayer a direct message, telling him, fuck yourself you
Starting point is 00:08:43 ugly bitch. I hope you choke on something. Mayor then responded to the user, saying that he'd been getting many messages like that over the past couple of days, and asking, do you really hope I die? To which the user responded, OMG, what? I don't want you to die.
Starting point is 00:09:00 I'm sorry. The user apologized again and admitted they didn't they they they didn't they didn't they didn't they didn't they didn't they didn again and admitted they didn't really think Mayor would see the message. You see people, this is what I hate about social media. It makes people act shittier than they actually are. Which then makes us think that people are shittier than they actually are. Because social media makes us forget that we're all human beings. You know, we just see that little avatar and then we all talk shit to each other, but we're all human. Even celebrities are real people, all of them. I mean, I always, obviously, except Timothy Shalamey. He's got to be CGI.
Starting point is 00:09:29 No one can be that good looking. I mean, just look at that person. Now I'm craving spice. God damn. Mmm, mm-hmm. But he hurt her. Listen to her song. Yes, that's all you're supposed to do. Listen to the song. You know, Taylor Swift writes songs to express her emotions in a way that touches other people. Not to order a hit on her ex-boyfriends. So death threats are not the way to go. Especially with someone like John Mayer. Don't don't send him death threats. He gets them all the time. If If you. to to to to to to th. to th. th. th. threat. threat. threat. to threat. threat. threat. threat. threat. threats. threats. that's that's that's that's thathea. threats. threats. 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 that, that, that, thathea. thathea. thathea thathea thathea that, that, that, thate. thateateateateateat. thateateateateateateat. tooooooooooooooooooooooooooooe. the. tell him that Ed Sheeran is a better guitar player. That's going to hit his heart.
Starting point is 00:10:06 You know, it's weird how people get like, they're so hateful on the internet, Desi. Yeah, I know. It's bad. But if you think John Mayer's DMs are rough, you should see the DMs of any woman on the internet. Really? Yeah, it's either death threat or requests to see your feet, their their their their their threat, threat, threat, threat, threat, threat, threat, threat, threats, threats, threats, threats, threats, threat, threat, threat, threat, threat, threats, it's threat, threat, threat, it's threat, it's threat, it's threat, it's threat, it's threat, it's threat, it's threat, it's threat, it's threats, it's threats, it's threats, it's threats, it's threats, threats, threats, threats, like threats, like threats, like threats, like threats, like that, like that, like that, like that, that, like threats, like that, like that, that, threats, like that, threats, threats, like their threats, threats your feet. Or a death threat, one of the two. It's either like, why are women in Star Wars? Or send me a picture of your feet. That's really intense. Yeah. Yeah. I know they're both bad, but which one do you prefer?
Starting point is 00:10:38 Well, I'm pretty proud of my feet, so I got no problem sending footpicks. Again, bad, I just wondered which one. Have you ever requested a footpick? No. No. Wow, look who's a gentleman. I think normal is the phrase you're looking for, maybe? Okay, it all depends.
Starting point is 00:11:01 But to be totally fair, it is completely inappropriate for anyone to send a death threat on the internet. It's not cool. I agree. You got to do it the old school way. You know, you got to like cut out from a magazine. This is the real way to do it. That is better than a DM?
Starting point is 00:11:20 Yeah. I always have this with me, just in case. I don't even know who it's for, but it takes so long to do it, but I figure by the time I'm done I'll figure it out. I'll be pissed at somebody. By the way, you're out of glue. Yeah. And all my magazines have been destroyed.
Starting point is 00:11:39 Thank you. I thought you wanted it signed because you wanted to read it. You wrote that book? Yeah, I did. I wrote it. All right, let's move on to the big story from Washington today. Last week, Arizona Congressman Paul Gossar tweeted an anime video of him chopping off AOC's head, right? Easily the most disturbing cartoon since that family guy fanfic porn I accidentally watched seven times. Brian has stamina and Democrats was so
Starting point is 00:12:10 furious about this video that today they voted to censure Gossar and kick him off of his committees, the first member of Congress to be censured in over a decade. Yeah, it's pretty bad. But Gossar, well, he seemed to take it as a badge of honor. I rise today to address and reject the mischaracterization accusations from many in this body that the cartoon from my office is dangerous or threatening. If I must join Alexander Hamilton, the first person attempted to be censored by this house, so be it. It is done. Uh, yeah, I don't know if this makes you the same as Alexander Hamilton. You know, this is like Jeffrey Epstein's girlfriend taking the stand,
Starting point is 00:12:53 like, if I must be tried and caught just as Jesus was, then so be it. No, no, lady, lady, it's the same process, but these are very different crimes. Now, the fact thi is is is thi is thi is thi thi thi thi thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi. thi. thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi. thi, thi. thi. thi. thi. thi, thi, thi. thi. thi. thi, thi. I thi. thi. I thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. theeaa. thi. thea. thea. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. that this didn't surprise anybody. Seeing something like this from Paul Gossar is not surprising because over the years, Gossar has made a name for himself as possibly the most controversial person in all of Congress, which is actually pretty impressive when you think about it. So let's talk about what makes Gossar one of Congress's most extreme extremists in another installment of fringe watching. Paul Gossar was first elected to Congress back in 2010, writing the wave of the Tea Party,
Starting point is 00:13:34 the movement that pretended to care about the national debt, but only while Obama was in office, he's black. And like many tea partiers who were elected that year, he didn't come from a career in politics. No, he was a dentist, which, as far as he's concerned is is thiiii thtied, is thtied, is concerned, is concerned, is concerned, is concerned, is concerned, is concerned, is the the the the the thi, is the the thi, is thi, is the thi, is thi, is thi, is thi, is thtthe ers who were elected that year, he didn't come from a career in politics. No, he was a dentist, which as far as he's concerned is all the experience a congressman needs. I was a dentist, and so every patient that walks in my office, I have to be prepared for an emergency. I'm a dentist, so science is a big deal to me. As a dentist, I love the kiss theory. By the way the way the way the way the way the way the way the way the way the way the the the the the the the the the the the the thinea, I I I thinea, I th. th. thi. thi. thi. thi, I's th. thi, thi, thi, thi, th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. He is is is is is is th. th. th. th. He is th. th. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. toe. toeeeean. toean. toean. toean. toean. t. t. tean. thean. thean. thean. the. the. He it simple stupid. By the way, I'm a dentist. Okay, so I read body language very, very well. Okay, half of those didn't even make sense. He was
Starting point is 00:14:09 adding as a dentist to the beginning of unrelated thoughts. Yo, I'm a dentist. So can I get this dry cleaning back on Tuesday? I'm a dentist. No, you're not currently a dentist. You're working at another job. you're working atthis job. I'm a dentist. Would you like number two as well with that? And look, I agree that being a dentist is the perfect job to prepare you for being in Congress, you know, since you already have tons of experience with people hating you. But it turns out there was one part of being a dentist that Gossar did bring to Congress. Teeth teeth he's try to whist groups than Mr. Gosar. He's been involved with anti-Muslim groups and hate groups. In 2018 he dined with an extremist anti-Muslim Belgian politician at a London event organized by Steve Bannon. In last month he tweeted, then deleted a reportedly neo-Nazi theme
Starting point is 00:14:59 video. Gosar has aligned himself closely with leaders of white nationalists and extremist groups, people like Nick Fuentes, the 22-year-old leader of the America First Movement. Other conservative organizations have denounced him as a Holocaust denier and a racist. The Arizona Republican was the keynote speaker at a conference hosted by Mr. Fuentes' group in February, the only member of Congress to participate. Congressman Marjorie Taylor Green, along with Republican Congressman Paul Gosar,
Starting point is 00:15:28 have been working to create a new House caucus to help return America to its, quote, Anglo-Saxon roots. The document reads, quote, America is a nation with a border and a culture strengthened by a common respect for uniquely Anglo-Saxon political traditions. You know I always find it funny how white supremacists want to
Starting point is 00:15:49 take America back to its roots but not like the original roots you know just like the roots of when white people were in charge. We need to take this country back to when Native Americans were in charge. No no no no too far back too far back go forward. Go forward. To MLK. No no no no no too too far back, too far back, go forward, go forward. To MLK? No, no, no, too far forward, back, back, back, back, back, back. The Irish coming over? Stop, perfect.
Starting point is 00:16:12 Because let's be honest, that's what he means by Anglo-Saxon traditions, right? Like, when he says that, he's not talking about knights, the land on quests, although that would be pretty cool. People of Arizona, I'm off to slay the mighty dragon as a dentist. Now, the only thing that Gossard loves more than whiteness is a really, really good conspiracy theory. In fact, he's claimed the Democrats stole a Senate race in 2018. He's claimed that the neo-Nazi rally in Charlottesville was a false flag operation secretly carried out by George Soros, and he's claimed that the FBI was behind the capital riot on January 6th. And that last one is especially weird, because one of the people who arguably was responsible
Starting point is 00:16:57 for January 6th was Paul Gossar. Arizona Congressman Paul Gozar, firing up crowds with lies about the election results. Imagine this, that you get us to go back home once we conquer the hill. Donald Trump has returned to being the president. And amazing things will happen with four more years. In just the days before the riot, he tweeted, Patriots, the time is now, hold the line. Join me in D.C. January 6, hashtag fight for Trump. And. And. And. And, and th. And, and th. And, and th. And, th. And, th. And, th. And, th. And, th. And, th. And, th. And, th. And, th. And, th. And, th. th. th. th. th. th. th. thi. thi. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. the riot. He tweeted, Patriots, the time is now, hold the line, join me in DC, January 6th, hashtag fight for Trump. And in another he tweeted, sedition and treason for stealing votes is appropriate. On the morning of the siege, he would send followers this
Starting point is 00:17:38 image stating Biden should concede. He promptly went to Congress, stood up and opposed the certification of the electoral college results. I rise up for myself and 60 of my colleagues to object to the accounting of the electoral ballots from Arizona. The end of his speech interrupted by the very mob he helped stir up. Ah, the irony, interrupted by his own mob. You see, this is why when you're fermenting a coup, you gotta coordinate, you know? Send out a doodle. Let the mob know you're speaking to overturn the election at 1.30, so maybe they could overtake the police barricade at two, maybe, you know?
Starting point is 00:18:15 You know, the only thing worse than your mob showing up late, because then you're just just on the floor just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just on the the just on the floor of Congress going, and if you think Joe Biden is going to be president, I have a few thousand friends who disagree! Guys, where are you? You don't use the bathroom now? Use it after. This is the time. Just a time. So, when you look at what he's done in Congress, I'm not surprised the GOP doesn't care about Goza's anime video. I mean, between the coup and the white supremacy, this is the least offensive thing that he's ever done. And the GOP might not be condemning Gossar's behavior, but his own family is definitely
Starting point is 00:18:55 picking up that slack. Arizona Congressman Paul Gossar was whacked with this attack by six of his brothers and sisters. My name is Tim Gosar. David Gosar. Grace Gosar. Joan Gosar. Gaston Gosar. Jennifer Gosar. Paul's absolutely not working for his district.
Starting point is 00:19:12 And he's not listening to you. And he doesn't have your interests at heart. Gosar fired back on Twitter. You can't pick your family, Gosar, twee, to the six angry Democrat Gosars, see you at mom and dad's house. God damn, we need to get Paul Gossar out of Congress and onto a Bravo show. You telling me you wouldn't watch the real Gossar's of Maricopa County? I'm a dentist, I'm a private investigator. I hate you. We hate you too.
Starting point is 00:19:36 Ah, tune in. I don't even want to imagine how stressful Thanksgiving must be for Gosar's parents. Think about it, you gotta cook for a bunch of children and the entire mob that Paul brings. You're not serving pumpkin pie this year? Well, let's see what my friends have to say about that! Wait, where you got? The bathroom again? Come out, what did you guys eat? You're killing me here. My mom's waiting.
Starting point is 00:20:05 Yeah, we gotta prove a point to her. Okay, okay, I'll see you soon. I'll be honest though, as awkward as this family dynamic is, it's more surprising to me when someone does endorse a sibling. I'll confront. I mean, think about it, siblings have experienced too much with you. Like, I don't care care tha tha tha tha tha tha tha tha tha tha that that that that that that that that that that that that that, to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to too, okay. too, okay. too, okay. too, okay. too, okay. too, okay. too, okay. too, okay. to to to to to to to to too, okay. too, okay. too, too, too, too, too, too, too, too, too. too. tho. throooooooooooooooome. tooomb. tooomoombuuu. tooomoombu. too the same things. She put my hand in warm water to make me pee in bed. Nobody should do that to a 37-year-old. So that's Paul Gossa, fringe politician, anime fan, and a man so awful,
Starting point is 00:20:36 he couldn't win votes from his own family. And I don't know about you guys, but someone this awful, they shouldn't be running anything in government. And I don't say this as a talk show host. I say this as someone who's been to the dentist. All right, when we come back, we won't just hear some marching bands. We'll listen to them. What does that mean? I don't know. Just stick around to find out.

It's a kind of a magazine for television. Very few have been given access to the treasures in our archives. But that's all about to change.
Starting point is 00:22:17 Like none of this stuff gets looked at. That's what's incredible. I'm Seth Done of CBS News. Listen to 60 Minutes, a second look on Apple podcasts, starting September 17th. Welcome back to the Daily Show. If you've ever watched a college football game, you know two things. One, you could definitely have coached that team better, and two, the marching band is pretty awesome. But how much do you know about the history of the marching band? Well, Doolstay will fool you you tho tho th you thu thu thu thu thu thu thu thu thu thu that's that's that's thate thate thate thate thate thate thate thate thate thate thate tho thate. S.

But how much do you know about the history of the marching band? Well, Dulce will fool you in with another installment of Dulcayan. Black marching bands. It's the one time black people get to march without Fox News calling them rioters.
Starting point is 00:23:03 And we all love them. Even those of us who got cut from one just because our baton twirling was deemed dangerous. Maybe those trombone players should have stayed out on my strike zone. But marching bands are even more amazing when you learn about their history. For example, you may not know this, but black marching bands actually started in the same setting as all your dad's favorite movies. Times of war. You see, in colonial times, black men weren't allowed to carry weapons, but they still had to serve and state militias. So they were assigned to fife and drum corps instead. And they needed a fife and drum corps back then, in case the armies ran out of bullets and had to resort to a rap battle. So yeah, not letting the black the black the black black black black black black black black black the black black black black black black black black black black black black black black black black. the black. the black. the black. the black. the black. the black. the black. the black. the black. the black. their. their. their. their. their. their. 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, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, the, the, the, the, te. te. te. the. ti. ti. ti. ti. times. times. times. the. the. the. the, and, and, the armies ran out of bullets and had to resort to a rap battle. So yeah, not letting the black servicemen have guns was racist, but there was actually an
Starting point is 00:23:48 interesting side effect of this racism? Because over the next century, the military pumped out thousands of trained black musicians who took their marching band skills back to their communities. And that's definitely one of the best skills to take out of the military. I mean, I th, th, th, and th, and th, and th, and th, and thed, and that's, and that's, and that's, and that's, and that's, and that's, and that's, that's, that's that's that's that's, thi, thi, thi, the, the, their their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their their their their their their their thea, thr-a, their-a'a'a'a'a'a'a'a'a'a, their-a'a, their-a, their, their, their, their, definitely one of the best skills to take out of the military. I mean, who do you want to party? The guy who knows how to play drums? Or the guy who knows how to dig a hole to poop in. And all of this marching band culture found a new home in 1890 when Tuskegee University started the first HBCU marching band. It turns out college and marching bands are a natural fit, like college and STDs. Over the next 50 years, marching bands popped up at Alabama State, Florida A&M,
Starting point is 00:24:27 Florida A&M, Kentucky State, and other HBCUs. But the big turning point came in 1946, when Dr. William P. Foster at Florida A&M discovered the missing ingredient. Choreography. Dr. Foster taught his barching band new dance moves with help from a PE teacher named Beverly Barber and that must have been cruel for all those band nerds who thought that going to college meant no more gym class. Oh, you thought you were done running?
Starting point is 00:24:54 Now you got to do it with a touple. But it was worth it because choreography to marching bands to the next level. Adding dancing to anything to anything makes it more entertaining. Karaoke, in-flight announcements, finding out you are not the father. By the 1960s and 70s, HBCU bands had gone mainstream. They were playing in Super Bowls, and they even marched JFK's inaugural parade, which had to be the most memorable parade JFK was ever in. Wait, that seems wrong. Then Southern University's band changed the game again when they started doing their own rendition
Starting point is 00:25:31 of top 40 radio hits. That earned them the nickname the Human Jute Box, and it's a tradition that goes on to this day. I'm telling you, you haven't lived until you've heard a marching band cover while. There's no lyrics, so all these old people are dancing to it in the stands, and they don't even know they're getting down to a song about lubrication. Get nasty, Grandma. It was also during this time that bands made their next big move,
Starting point is 00:25:55 dance lines. These started with the Golden Girls of Jackson State and whose jetting technique became a big influence on hip-hop dance. And the j-sets only happened because a majorette named Shirley Middleton demanded that they be allowed to dance in a more modern way and, quote, put down their batons. I wish someone had gotten rid of batons back when I was twirling, then I wouldn't have gotten sued so much. The band got more CTE than the football team that year. Today the impact is HBCU bands and their dancers is all over pop culture.
Starting point is 00:26:27 They're in songs, movies, and they were even part of Beyonce's iconic Coachella performance. That show changed the conversation. It changed the culture. I mean, just watching that again, it changed my outfit. Here's how popular black marching bands are now. Even Trump had one performing his inauguration. Between that and all the cheating on his wife, he was just like JFK.
Starting point is 00:26:49 And just this year, Vice President Kamala Harris was escorted at the inauguration by the marching band from her own alma mater, Howard University. What an incredible moment that was. Most people only reconnect with their alma mater when they're getting hit up for donations. I already made a donation. It was called my tuition. And I had a full ride.
Starting point is 00:27:09 So the next time you see a black marching band, you'll know how they became the phenomenon that they are today. Now, play me out. Ha ha! I still got it. Uh-huh. See, not so bad. Whoop. I'm not paying for that. Thank you so much for that, Dulce. All right, when we come back, the legendary Dwayne Wade will be joining me right here in

But that's all about to change.
Starting point is 00:28:49 Like none of this stuff gets looked at. That's what's incredible. I'm Seth Done of CBS News. Listen to 60 Minutes, a second look on Apple podcasts starting September 17. Welcome back to the Daily Show. My guest tonight is NBA superstar and businessman Dwayne Wade. He's here to share his new photographic memoir about his legendary career and building a legacy off the court. Dwayn Wade, welcome to the show. Man, thank you.
Starting point is 00:29:17 And good to have you here with, you know, a book that I didn't know what to expect when I started reading it. But it feels like a memoir in pictures. It feels like a story of your life and some of your inner monologue thoughts. Like what inspired this version of the book? It is, that's exactly what it is. I didn't want to go at it from a standpoint of like just words on a paper. I've done it once seriously as a public figure
Starting point is 00:29:45 and you know just understanding that little Duang's needs something to see you know like reading something is great but when they can actually see the image of the of something of someone I think that right there is more powerful so for me it was important that I show the human side of you know what people look at as an athlete because they met me as an athlete but but I'm a human and so I want that that that right right that that that that that right that that that right that right that I that th I th I th I th I th I th I th I th I th th I th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th thi thi th. I thi thi thi th. I th. I th. I thi thi thi thi thi. th. just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just th. I th.

I th I th I th I th I th I th I th I thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi the thi the thi thi thi the the thi the human side of, you know, what people look at as an athlete because they met me as an athlete. Right, right, okay. But I'm a human. And so I wanted to show a little bit of that. Yeah, it's a beautiful book divided into quarters, you know. Yeah, it's a beautiful book. You know, like, you're a little bit. You know, like, thi thin' the thii's thin' thin' thin' thin' thin' thin' thin' thin' thin' thin' thin' thin' thin' thin' thin' thin' thin' thin' thin'a'a'a'a'a'a'a'a'a'a'er'a'er's a little tho'er's a little tho'er's a little bit thi'er's a little their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their thi's a little th. th. th. th. th. th. th. thin'a'a'a'a'a'a'a'a'a'a'a'a'a'a'a'a'er's human. tooo'er's human. toooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo. tha'er. th right? They're thinking that. I didn't think it writing another book. I was like this is this is it. Your life is, do you ever
Starting point is 00:30:28 think about that as an athlete? It's like you know a lot of the time for athletes and for the public sometimes your life ends when your career ends. You know do you ever think about that and and how hard it is to think about your next journey as a human being. I mean I know you're a husband, you're a dad, you're a businessman now, but were you ever worried was there ever a moment where you were like man who is Dwayne Wade without the bowl? Who's Dwayne Wade without the hoops? One thousand percent. I mean basketball is what I know right from the same point of I focused my whole? the whole life on trying to be great. If if if to to to to to to to to to to to be great. to be great. the their. their. their. their. their. their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their moment. was, was, was, was, was, was, was, was, was, was, was, was, was, was, was, was, was, was, was, was, was their moment. their moment. their moment their moment, was their moment, was their moment their moment, their moment, their moment, their moment, their moment, their moment, their moment, their moment, their their their their their their their their moment, was their all of your attention, it takes all of your time. And once I got to like my last year, when I was like, all right, I think I'm ready to walk away, I was like, what am I gonna do next?
Starting point is 00:31:10 And everybody tells you along the way, you're gonna be fine, you're gonna have so many things. You're like how, where? to say, you know what, talk with my team and let's say, let's get back to it. Let's just hit the groundrunner, let's take meetings and let's just see, let's see what my interest lies. Because I didn't know, you know, all I know is I love the game of basketball and I enjoy business and I enjoy making money. I enjoy creating, I enjoy creating things, I enjoy designing things, I'm in a pregame. I'm in a pregame again in this new step, this new walk. If I had guessed before reading the book and someone said to me, okay, what are Duane
Starting point is 00:31:50 Wade's passions? I would have gone, okay basketball is definitely one of them. Yes. I would have said fashion is definitely one of them. Yes. You know, Duenwain has been afraid to take. Yes. You know, I would have said wine. thia w w w w w w w w w w w w w w w w w w w w w w w w w w w w w w w w w w w w w w w w w w wa? 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. 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. theeeee. theeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee. theeee. the. the. the. the. thing I would have never said before reading the book was karaoke. Oh, listen. You're a humble person, but the one thing you have no humility about, you call yourself the greatest karaoke singer in the league. Well, you're just like you're the go-logo. Now I'm out of league, I'm the goat. It's not that I can't sing to save my life. It's that I'll just like, that I'll just like, that I'll just like, the the that I'll just, the the thia. tho, tho, tho, tho, I'll, I'll, I'll, I'll, I'll the the the the tho, I'll just tho, I'm, I'm, I'm, the the the the tho, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the th. tho, I'm, I'm tho, I'm tho, I'm tho, thi, thi, thi, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, thooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo, tho, to save my life. It's that I will get up on stage anywhere to sing karaoke. Like I'll go to local bars and just jump on stage. That's the kind of person I am. Wow.
Starting point is 00:32:32 I gotta know the song. But you know what I mean? Yeah, but you just... I do it anywhere. Do it anywere. Do your favorite song? Like, what is like Dwayne. My wife told me I need a new song because I've been doing the same one for about six, seven years. What was that song? Mytel Jordan, this is how, you know, it's easy. Well, I like my, Montel Jordan because it brings the energy. I hear you.
Starting point is 00:32:51 Everybody know the words, even if you don't know the words, you know some of the words. And so it's kind of crowd participation. I don't have I I I I I I I the singing, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, the, the, I th, the, I, th, th. th. th. th. th. th. th. thed, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, th like the human side of your story with LeBron. You know, I wasn't in the US when the whole move to Miami happened. I wasn't in the US for that chaos. What do you think was the biggest thing that people missed from LeBron coming to Miami? You know, you share a few to, you were trying to achieve. What do you think people missed in that story? What do you think that, you know, people just didn't understand about that move and the big three?
Starting point is 00:33:28 Well, I mean, I'm sure it's a lot that people didn't understand, you know, didn't understand. I mean, as athletes, you know, when you're touted as one of the goods and the greats, they say these are the things you have to accomplish. You have to get rings, you have to get a repeat, like it's all these things. And so you can't knock someone for listening to that and going out and making sure that you put the best team around you to win. So I think at that time, you know, I had won a championship championship. I've been losing, losing, losing, losing, losing, losing, losing, losing, I and I and I and I and I and I and I and I and I and I and I and I and I and I and I was and I was and I was and I was and I was and I was and I was and I was and I was th and I was th and I was th and I was thi and I was to losing, and I was to losing, I was thi. And I was to to to to to to to to to to listen, to listen, to listen, to listen, to listen and I was to listen and I was thi and I was thi and I was thi and I was thi and I was thi and I was thi and I was th and I was losing, for th and I was losing, I was th and I was to to listening, for to to listening, I was to to l le, for to le, for to le, thi.. And I was to le, to le an to lea... to to to to to to got close ones, but he was ready to like get over that hump. Chris Boss was an emerging star in Toronto, and he was ready to get a little bit more light, a little bit more attention. So I just feel like, man, just to be young and to decide as young men that we want to do
Starting point is 00:34:16 this. As friends, we understood at that moment. It will never be the same. Yeah, player empowerment. That's what that move was about. Your life has been one that is filled with both tragedy and triumph. I can't help wondering if that's why you've been as dedicated to your family as you have been. You know, it feels like Dwayne Wade has gone, I want to win championships on the court, but I want to win championships at home as well. And you know, I see that, you know, with, for instance, your son Zaire was playing in the game now.
Starting point is 00:34:48 I've seen your face light up when you watch him or when you play against him. And I've also seen like the journey that you've been on with your daughter and just like talking through the challenges of having the journey to understanding trans people and the conversation happens overnight. It wasn't overnight for you. No. And you had to learn. If you were to talk to another parent out there, or somebody who just goes like, Duane, this is just, I don't get, this is wrong, I don't get it. What helped you to begin to understand so that you that you that you that you that you that you that you could that you could that you could that you could that you could that you could that you could that you could that you could that you could that you could that you could that you could that you could the the the to to begin to begin to begin to begin to begin thi thi thi to begin that you could that you could that you could that you could that you could that you could that you could that you could that you could that you could that you could that you could that you could that you could that you could that you could to to begin to begin th, th, th, th th th th th thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi the the the the the the the the theeeeea thean thean thean thean thean thean. thean thean thean thea theee think when things happen personally to you, when you have a personal connection to something or someone, you take it a little bit more serious. But when it happens to you, you have to look it in the face. You have to, you know, right on, like my daughter looking at me across the table. I have to, this is something I need to deal with, right? In the sense of I don't, you, you, thininininininininininin, thin, thin, thin, thin, thin, thi, thin, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, to to to to to to to to be to be to be to to be to be to be to be 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 to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be th.. th. thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thr. thr. thr. thr. the. to be thea, when, thea, to, to, when, thea, to to be to be to be to be to be to be to, this is something I need to deal with, right, in the sense of I don't
Starting point is 00:35:45 know everything, you know, and as a parent, you want to make sure that when your kids come to you, you have answers. You know what I mean? You have the right words, you have the right, you know, support, whatever it is, you have the right motivation. And so at that that moment I had no answers. The only answer that I knew that I knew I knew I knew that I knew that I knew that I knew that I knew that I knew that I knew that I knew that I knew that I knew th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. thin thin, I have thin, I have thin, I have that that that that to to to to to to to to to to th. to to to to 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 the the the the the th. th. th. th. th. thin, that, that, that, thatee an ta. I ta. toda. toe an toda today tha tha tha tha tha tha tha that that to I had that this was my child. I love them and I hate the pain that my child is in. Wow. Right? You know, seeing the pain of, you know, not being able to feel confident and comfortable in who you are. Right. You know, that's not, you don't want to see no one live like that, no one you love. And so immediately, when it's the hug and embrace and you see just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just the to just, to just, to just to just a to just a the the the the the to just, to just, to just, to just, 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 to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, the to, the to, the the the the the the the the the the the light. Like I seek Zaya's light. And for me to be in a place where I'm not trying to dim her light,
Starting point is 00:36:28 I'm trying to move out the way and let her get all the light. I just see a beautiful, you know, blossoming 14 year old girl who's trying to find, you know, trying to pass her test at school just like everybody else. She's trying to find thi thi know, this year going back to school like everyone else. And you know, my wife and I's, you know, our whole role and our whole job, and we understand this is, you know, to provide, to protect, to love, to facilitate, you know, we have all these rules. It's not to, to own. It's not to say you're going to be this and you're going to, you. their. their. their. their. I I I I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I.
