Starting point is 00:00:00 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 Lighting.
Starting point is 00:01:05 And I'm Roy Chan. And I'm Desi Lighting. And I'm Ryan Chan. And I'm Desi Lighting. And I'm Ryan Chan. And I'm Desi Lytter. Ha! Damn!
Starting point is 00:01:13 Let's get into the headlines. Let's get into the headlines. That's skipping things on some major international news. You know when you're in middle school and your two worst enemies have a sleepover and spend a whole night talking shit about you? Well, that just happened to America. Tonight, two of America's fiercest adversaries together on North Korean soil. Vladimir Putin arriving in Pyongyang for the first time in nearly a quarter of a century.
Starting point is 00:01:41 North Korea's Kim Jong-un pulling out all the stops in an elaborately choreographed state visit for Russian President Vladimir Putin. The outcast and sanctioned leaders side-by-side reviewing troops, cheered by crowds of children with balloons. The two unveiled a strategic defense treaty, promising mutual assistance in case either country faces aggression. Best friends forever! Russia and North Korea, it's the perfect alliance. They go together like vodka and famine.
Starting point is 00:02:14 Everyone wins. I mean, Russia gets North Korean weapons, and North Korea gets whatever Putin has, those nesting dolls and Tucker Carlson's phone number, I don't know. And now that Russia has North Korean weapons, watch out Ukraine, get ready for some missiles that blow up on the launching pad. But my favorite part about this visit was just getting to watch two dictators hang
Starting point is 00:02:40 out together. Because when Putin first landed, they were all formal and polite with each other. I mean, look at them, trying to get the other the other the other the other the other the other the other the other the other the other the other the other the other the other the other the other the other the other the other the other the other the other the other the other the other the other the other the other to get to get to get to get the other the other to get to get to get to get to get to get to get to get to get to get to get to get to get to get to get to get their to get to get to get to get the other the other the other the other the other the other the other the other the other the other the other the other the other the other the other the other the other the other the other the other the other the other the other the other the other the other the other the other the other the other the other the other the other the other to get the other to get to get to get to get to get to get to get to get to get. I mean look at them, trying to get the other to get into the limo first. No go, no no after you I insist. It's friendly but it's also obvious that these guys have blown up a lot of cars. No no no you start the ignition. No you do it. Okay fine we'll both turn it at the same time. But over the ignition. No, no, no, you do it. No, you do it. Okay, fine, we'll both turn it at the same time. But over the next couple of days, the two had a lot of fun together. Kim picked him up, and they took a drive. Just two communists in cars getting coffee.
Starting point is 00:03:16 They drove through a botanic garden. They looked like they adopted a couple of dogs together. And clearly Putin had a great time because when he left, he looked really sad. He hugged him goodbye. Then he stood there waving, way too long. And then he went inside the plane and waved from the window. Can you at least act like you have another friend? All right? It looks like you're waving to your mom on the busted sleepaway camp.
Starting point is 00:03:50 Also, based on Kim Jong-un's face, Putin must have been a pretty high maintenance guest. Just look at him. Bye, come back soon. Oh, God, I thought he never leave. Next time he stays at the Radisson. Let's move on to climate change. If you couldn't tell from all this sweat on your ass cheeks today, the earth is still getting hotter.
Starting point is 00:04:13 So climate activists have taken their protests to the next obvious place, a pile of rocks. A pair of climate protesters have been arrested after spray-paying the historic Stonehenge monument in southern England. Video of the incident shows two people running toward the stone circle while spray orange paint. A third person can be seen trying to stop them, then a fourth. The climate activist group just stop oil has taken responsibility for the incident. Whoa, guys, I appreciate the cause, but what did Stonehenge ever do?
Starting point is 00:04:47 I mean, literally, what did Stonehenge do? I get the stone part, but what the fuck is a hench? Regardless, I don't think this helps the cause. All they did was make it look like Stonehenge went to town on some Doritos. Guys, these stunts don't work. I promise you, Exxon saw this and this and this and this and this and th and th and th and th, th, th, th, th, th, th, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, that's, that's, that's, that's that's that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho. tho. thoooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo. the. thots don't work. I promise you, Exxon saw this and thought, that's a good point. I wonder if there's oil under Stonehenge. Yeah, I don't think painting Stonehenge orange is going to do anything, guys. Last year, the sky in New York turn orange, and we still didn't care.
Starting point is 00:05:19 Okay, everybody was like, oh, that's weird. Let's tu the air conditioning. Yeah, I'll tell you who they should be going after. Billionaires and their private jets. Two more members of the organization Just Stop Oil have in place under arrest for spray painting private jets and Taylor Swift might have been a target. No, no, not Taylor. She is our queen. Another billionaire. Just stop oil said that the airfield is where Taylor Swift jet was parked,
Starting point is 00:05:51 but Essex police in the United Kingdom said the pop star's aircraft was not at the airport. Oh, thank God, Taylor doesn't have to fly commercial. But guys, spray paint is not going to ground these planes, okay? You gotta do something radical, like cut some wires or install some Boeing pots. And finally, some major education news from Louisiana where school children are getting a lesson from the greatest textbook ever. New this morning, the governor of Louisiana signed a law requiring the 10 commandments be posted in all public school classrooms, the only state now is such a law. It mandates poster size
Starting point is 00:06:29 displays of the 10 commandments in large easily readable font. This is in all public classrooms. This is from kindergarten up until state-funded universities. Easily readable font. I hate to break it to you but Louisiana ranks 38th in reading. I don't think the font is going to help. See I can make that joke because I'm from Kentucky. We're ranked 30 second. Suck it Louisiana we read Gooder. The more on Louisiana's new Ten Commandments Law and what it means for the separation of church and state, we go live to Louisiana with Michael Costa. Michael, the Ten Commandments aren't religion. Michael, how can Republicans justify religion in public schools? Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.
Starting point is 00:07:25 The Ten Commandments aren't religion, all right? Just because they're in the Bible, it doesn't mean they're religious, okay? The Ten Commandments are universal moral principles that these Louisa and Republicans want everybody to live by, just like their party does. So they live up to these same moral standards? Yeah, of course. It's not tha tha tha tha thou thou thou thou thou thou thou thou thou thou thou thou thou thou thou thou thou, thou, thou, thou, thou, thou, thou, thou, thou, thou, tho, thou-thea, thou, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho-a, tho-a, tho-a, tho-a, tho-a, tho-a, tho-a, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, thooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo. te, tha. to these same moral standards?
Starting point is 00:07:45 Yeah, of course. It's not that hard. Like, you know, thou shalt not kill. Right? Pretty cut and dry. Don't kill anybody. Unless you're standing to your ground, you've got to protect yourself. Or if a protester is blocking traffic, I got places I got to, you know what, let's forget about this one. It's complicated, so... But look, the rest of these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these theck is theck is thease is theck is thease is theck is theckeckeckesescea. thi. thi. thi. thi. th one. It's complicated, so... But look, the rest of these, the rest of these are clear cut. Sure, sure, like, thou shalt not commit adultery. Yes, well, obviously not if it's a porn star and your wife is pregnant. I mean, God is going to give you that one, but fine. Desi, if you're going to nitick, let's cross out, commit adultery, all right?
Starting point is 00:08:27 And if you're gonna have to, if you're gonna commit adultery, you also have to lie about it, so you can't do false witness either. False witness, Ronnie, that's just Bible talk for lying to your wife. But the rest of these are rock, all right? And that's why he put him on a rock, like, their, thak, thak, thoomp, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, thi, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho on a rock like Number five, okay honor thy father and mother you can't get more moral than that Oh like like giving parents a maternity leave and universal child care What no no no not not honoring them like that
Starting point is 00:08:54 Honoring them like texting them at 1155 p.m. on father's day. You know what let's forget it. There's too much. too much confusion. Let's just cross off number five. All right, and and and and and and and and and and and and and while, and th. And th. And th. And 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 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 th. th. th. tho. tho. tho. tho. tho. tho. tho. tho. tho. tho. their. their. their their their their their th off number five. All right. And while we're at it, I don't even know what graven image means. So that one's God. Don't say the Lord's name in vain. I mean, that's just cancel culture, right? So it just can't. Here we go. Here we go. Here we go. Here we go. Here we go. Remember the Sabbath day and keep it holy. the Sabbath. the sau. the sa-Di. the sa-. the sa-. the sa-. the sa-. the sa-. the sa-. the sa-. th. the sa-. the sa-. th. th. th. the sa-. the sa-. the sa-. the sa-. the sa-. the sa-. the sa-. the sa-. the sa-. the sa-. the sa-. the sau. the sau. the sau. the same-. the same-. the same-. the same-. the same-. the same-n't-n't-n't-n't-n't-n't-n't-n't-n. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th.

All the chaff out of here, okay? All the, there. There it is. Boom. Perfect. Yeah, but all you have left is the vow. Yeah, exactly. This was a nation founded, an individual determination.
Starting point is 00:09:48 Putting thou self first is the American way. Yep. Yep. Do kids even know what thou means? Well, we're going to teach them. And if there's one thing, Republican support, it's teaching kids new pronouns, oh shit, wait a second. Can't do that, can't do that.
Starting point is 00:10:10 Can't do that. Yeah, Michael Costa, everybody. They'll think your head. When we come back, Gordon Clepper checked out the latest Trump rallying. John Stewart here, unbelievably exciting news. My new podcast, The Weekly Show, we're going to be talking about the election, economics, ingredient to bread ratio on sandwiches. Listen to the weekly show with John Stewart, wherever you get your podcast. trail and that means Jordan Clepper is out there with him too in another edition of Jordan Clepper Fingers the Pulse. Donald Trump has a big month ahead.
Starting point is 00:11:14 A debate, an immunity ruling, sentencing and a convention in the horrible city of Milwaukee. His words, not mine. So I went to my first rally since he became a convicted felon in the good old battleground state of Wisconsin. And as usual, Maga was gonna Maga. Make America great again. I need to make some money. You got a truck you want to show me? Yeah, I do. I wish the world a better place because I was here. Jesus Christ, President Trump. Same fun, huh? Okay. Chatter, you're all worried about that whole worshipping false idols thing? Not at all. What do you think about the upcoming debate? I've heard that, you know,
Starting point is 00:11:54 people say Biden won't show up? Do you think Trump is going to show up? Oh, absolutely. Yeah, yeah. Yeah, I think he's going to show up. He's not afraid to debate anybody. Oh, no, no, no, no. I mean, except for Nicky Haley. Of course, there's one thing still on everyone's mind. Trump's recent felony conviction in New York for falsifying business records. People are talking about what happened with Donald Trump's conviction recently. That, totally bullshit. that. That. Totally. Bullshit. All 34 of them. It's a fucking mess. Get rid of it.
Starting point is 00:12:28 Why is it a fucking mess? It's a fucking mess because he didn't do anything wrong. Who's he cheating? I mean, other than his, why? I'm not getting to do that. It's unjustful. It's not fair. Scam. It only takes one crime to to to jail or prison. Isn't that the truth?
Starting point is 00:12:46 Suddenly America's the land where you commit a crime and you go to prison? Are you're kidding me? That was a kangaroo trial. This is absolute Stalinism. So do you have faith in the Department of Justice? No. Now there's the Hunter Biden trial. The Hunter Biden wastrial. What did you think? Hunter Biden was found guilty. Yes. What do you think of that?
Starting point is 00:13:05 Well, the evidence was overwhelming. You take the evidence, you put it through the justice system and he's found guilty? We should accept that. Yes. Wait a minute, hold on. But I thought the justice system was rigged. We shouldn't trust the whole Hunter Biden situation? Are you relieved?
Starting point is 00:13:27 Hunter Biden has found guilty. Yeah, but they're not going to do anything to f- Why not? You can sit around, fuck you jump a pistol in the garbage, smoke crack. You get away with all that shit. But it sounds like he was convicted. Yeah. So is that the justice the justice the justice justice justice justice justice justice justice justice justice justice justice justice justice justice justice justice I don't know. Justice system won't work until I put away. Which f'we're talking about? Trump.
Starting point is 00:13:47 100%? When Trump had put away the justice system is working. No. No. Sorry, I'm try to keep crazy. Which part of the justice system do we totally implicitly trust? Which one is a total sham? It's hard to keep him straight. Did this conviction dole out justice or just create a martyr? There's a classic cartoon that shows other convicted felons.
Starting point is 00:14:06 There's Gandhi, there's Nelson Mandela, and then there's Trump. You put Trump in line with Gandhi and Nelson Mandela? Yeah. Between Gandhi and Mandela and Trump, which was the one who had sexed and paid to cover that? Well, none of you about it. None of you about it. One of the other. And one of them recently made bank off his brush with the law. Spoiler alert, it wasn't Gandhi.
Starting point is 00:14:34 So the conviction helped Donald Trump. Well, everyone's pouring in money to support him, so, and I know I've done that a couple times. Trump goes to trial for sexual assault. How much you're given? What is that is that is that is that is thiiiiiiiiiiii. thoen to thoen to to to to to to thoen. to to th. to thoen. thoen. thoom. to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to tooom. tooom. tooom. too. too. too. to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to th.

Oh probably a thousand dollars. Thousand bucks for that? Okay classified docs how much are you given? Another thousand. Okay so a thousand across the board? Yes. Okay. Overthrow democracy? That big?

You don't need to be shilling out money to give immigrants who don't deserve it. You're sick and tired of your money going to people who committed crimes. That's right. Yeah. Did you donate?
Starting point is 00:15:13 Yes. What about for the sexual assault case? Did you get for that? Oh. This is all just so old news. thus sexual assault, sexual assault, it doesn't affect me. It's old news Sex wish assaults, sexual assault. Let's move on with the future. Yeah. Yeah. That's a laugh. But what is slightly less hilarious is Trump's second-term plan, which sounds a lot like going after him. Based on what they've done, I would have every right to go after them. I am your retribution.
Starting point is 00:15:50 Donald Trump is put into office. Should he go after his political opponents? Absolutely. Rocked their world. Fee'em up like he f-foothers up. Should he show any mercy to political opponents? I don't think so. He should go after them.
Starting point is 00:16:07 How important is vengeance to you when Trump gets into office? It's probably third on the list. Okay, good. So I'm guessing that's between martial law and right before fixing toilet pressure. But there's a simple reason it's so easy for them to give him a pass. I love Trump so you know. 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, thi, to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to the, tha, tha, tha, tha, tha, tha, tha, tha, tha, tha, tha, tha, tha, thau. thau. thau. try, thau. theauuu. theauuu. theauuuu. thea, tr. thau. t's so easy for them to give him a pass. But I love Trump, so you know? There you go. It's like if you have a child and they pull some shenanigan, you don't like what they do.
Starting point is 00:16:32 You love the person, but you don't necessarily like what they do. The child allergy is kind of perfect. But to be clear, we are talking about the person you want to be president. Yes. At least someone is having a good time. Thank you, Jordan. When you come back, Evan Moss Backrow will be joining you on the show so don't go away. Hey everybody, John Stewart here. I am here to tell you about my new podcast, The Weekly Show, coming out every Thursday. We're going to be talking about the election, earnings calls. What are they talking about on these earnings calls?
Starting point is 00:17:20 We're going to be talking about ingredient to bread ratio on sandwiches. I know you have a lot of options as far as podcasts go, but how many of them come out on Thursday? Listen to a Daily Show. Our guest tonight is an Emmy Award-winning actor, you know, as Cousin Richie on the Bear. Please welcome, Evanak it up. They love you. That is very nice.
Starting point is 00:18:09 You guys are very, very nice. It's very, very nice. Must be nice. Must be nice to be a... An Emmy winner. All these Emmys on the best show in America. Congratulations. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:18:30 Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Congratulations on your huge Emmy win. I don't know if you know this. We were sitting down the way from you. Okay. And we looked over and we said to each other other we're like, oh my god, the bear is right there. These are really good seats. Yeah. We were kind of peppered throughout the top chef, like team too. There's a lot of top chef folks I
Starting point is 00:18:56 think where we were. Yeah, well right in my row. I don't remember the all remember is you ignoring me. Yeah I have no memory of you guys. I'm like, hey. Yeah, well, well, well, well, well, well, the the the the the the the the the the the th. Yeah, th. Yeah, th. Yeah, th. Yeah, th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. the 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 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. 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 R-Member is you ignoring me. Yeah I have no I have no memory of you guys either. Hey man I love you on the bed yeah yeah well. Next time it's the usual reaction that Ronnie gets so don't it's okay. No no you have like a profoundly forgettable face. Yeah, yeah. Totally forgettable. We're such huge fans of the show and huge fans of your character. The clip that we saw was from your episode Forks last season, which you, Cousin Richie goes on this like epic journey just in the course of this one episode. You have such a beautiful arc. Does Cousin Richie get to continue down that path
Starting point is 00:19:47 of evolution in the next season? What are you allowed to say? Um, say whatever they're, you know, whatever I want to say. What I feel like saying, yeah, exactly, exactly. You know, I don't know what your personal evolution is like. I mean, I think for Richie, you know, he's become aware that there's a path for him to find purpose and sort of live maybe fuller life, a richer life in a way,
Starting point is 00:20:15 but just because he's like aware of that path doesn't mean that he's like cruising up to the top. You know, I think it's like a struggle, forward back, you know, when you've yelled for 46 years, you know, I think it's hard to maybe put the outdoor voice totally, like, to retire it. That's the hard. Is that kind of liberating for you though to play a character like that? Do you ever just want to mouth off in real life? Yeah, like I'm, I think of myself as a fairly socialized, polite person. I live in, I live in New th. th. th. th. th. I th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. thi th. thi thi thi thi thi' thi' thi thi thi' thi' th. th. th. th. th. th. 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. the the the the th. the the the th. th. the. the. theeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee. thi. thi myself as a fairly socialized, polite person. I live in, I live in New York, you know, with many millions of other people and you kind of have to, you know, fall in line and if you sort of say what you feel every second
Starting point is 00:20:54 of every day. You hear that, Ronnie? Yeah, that's great advice. So it is nice, it is nice to walk in the shoes of like this man who is like fully expressed to a fault most of the time. It's nice. Yeah, I blow off some steam. Yeah, yeah, when you, I mean, I'm not just saying this to be nice, but I feel like it is very beloved show. Like at the moment, I feel like America can't agree on anything other than the bear is good. Like everyone's always like all the bear is good. Like, everyone's always like, all the bear?
Starting point is 00:21:26 Yeah, everyone else is the bear. Great show. And when you, when the, just as an actor, when the script comes in, like when you read that script, did it pop on the page? Or were you like, I just need some money? Yeah, like a combination, you know, no, it was like one of those rare scripts
Starting point is 00:21:45 where I read it and like within a few pages, especially of this character, he just felt so vital and alive. Like a lot of the time, I find myself like having to create a character a lot. You know, like this script is kind of open-ended, and you sort of have to figure things out and build and create a lot. And this one he 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 thua things out and build and create a lot. And this one, he just felt really fully formed and I just had a strong connection. I also felt like I had new people like this.
Starting point is 00:22:09 I've run into folks like this a lot and spent some time and love dearly, like some richy kind of characters throughout my life. And because the director is also the writer of this. And so how much of that came off on the page when you, because it's a very distinct visual style, the pacing, a lot of this is in the edit, you know, and it's so fast-paced, it's anxiety-driven, honestly, when you watch it,
Starting point is 00:22:31 sometimes it's like worse than watching the news. When you're watching, when you're reading it? I don't understand your question. Oh, sorry. Sorry. I don't even know if that was a question. I'm asking when you read what the words mean?
Starting point is 00:22:55 I'm asking when you read words, do you know what the words mean? Yeah, that's real. That's true. That's what you're reading comprehension? We don't have to memorize. We just read whatever they put in the prompter. So it's very... Yeah, that's true. I thought, you know what, okay, the level of anxiety, I didn't find that when I read this script, because I love what I read. I read the first two scripts, through the audition process.
Starting point is 00:23:20 And it was, I just thought it was really funny and very sort of tender in a way, this story about this kind of found family, a bunch of freaks in a way, like, or they misfits or whatever you, whatever were supposed to say, that like, they, that like, found this home, you know. And only when I watched like the first episode many months later and it was so like frenetic and crazy and super cutting and trapping, it reminded me a lot of like, like skate videos from the 90s. It was like so kind of wild.
Starting point is 00:23:57 And especially in the first episode where they're cutting like video games into it. It was like super loud. I was like, oh wow, that is not in any way what I envisioned the thing to be like so and I wasn't sure how I felt about it I was like I called my wife in and friends I was like what is this this is viable like are we gonna go back because this was just the pilot I was like what do you think we're gonna make that season or what and they they were into it but it took me a little a little a a a a a a a little a little a little a little a little a little a little a little a little a little a little a little a little a little a little a little a little a little a little a little a little a little a little a the th a little a little a th thing I ran. Wow, interesting. You, there's so, there's such good chemistry between all of you and the cast. It really, really feels like a tight-knit family.
Starting point is 00:24:29 It is, yeah. Now, for Ronnie and I to reach this sort of palpable chemistry, leave you trust falls in the back? Is it, is it natural for you all to fall into a rhythm or did you have to really work in rehearse? the the? We did work. I think we did have like innate chemistry. I think that this is one of like the strengths of the show is that Chris and our other show owner, Joanna and our great casting director, Jeanne, they put together a company and I mean, I don't know, everyone weirdly does really love each other and get along. And obviously through shared experience and time together, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, thi, thi, thi, thi, I thi, I, I, I thi, I thi, I thi, I thi, I thi, I thi, I thi, I thi, I thi, I thi, I thi, I thi, I thi, 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 thi, I thi, I thi, I thi, I thi, I think, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thiiiiii, thii, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, I thi, I 't know, everyone weirdly does really love each other and get along. And obviously through shared experience and time together, that kind, like that's how friendship grows. Is that instructive for you guys?
Starting point is 00:25:10 You guys. Also, there's a thing about like getting to travel and shoot somewhere else where you don't live, you guys shoot in Chicago. Yeah, that's a good point. Woo, one person. Two people, we have a very important question for you, and I hate to get political, but Deep Dish or New York pizza? Careful now. I don't know.
