A Look Back at 2021 - The Year in Scams | Chelsea Handler

asked him, what do you think? And he said, even if Steph Curry breaks and I'm still the greatest, No, you're not. That's literally how records work. I'm sorry, you are one of the greatest, but you're not the greatest. That's literally how the record works. Yeah, so Steph has to shoot just two. He shoots one and then he's tied, and then he shoots another one and then he breaks the record. Yes, unless he gets cursed and then never

scores another three ever. Again, Like, maybe I should be the one to tell you Americans, Steph Curry is broken basketball. He figured it out and your sports is now broken. Yeah, this is why I Like soccer, no one can break it. Basketball broken. Steph Curry figured out that if you throw the ball, you can throw it over everybody and then you just get the same points. Before that, people were like, you've got to like run and then fight people like Shack.

Imagine if you had been like fighting against Shack all those years and then you realize all along you could have just thrown the ball in. And Steph doesn't even do it from like the line because they're like, this is the three point line. Then he was like, but what if you just do it from like the other line. Then he was like, what have you just? Have you seen Steph Curry does it from like not even on the court. Now, he does it from like the tunnel

that comes to the court. At some point, Steph Curry is gonna shoot the ship from home. That's what he's gonna do. Yeah, Steph Curry is going to be the first work at home basketball player. It's gonna be like the first step of the hybrid work in the in the NBA. Be like, yeah, man, I remember when the game change. Before that, we had to come into the to the arena. Man, you have to play games. And then Steph Curry came along. Man ship. Now now, man, people,

he's thrown from home. Now man, yeah, just be like one of the greatest players, will be like someone who lives like some random place, like he lives in the Maldives. He just throws from there. Man, you call God that ship. You can't God that ship. You gotta catch two planes just to God him. The whole game has changed. You'll be telling your grandkids. Back in my day in basketball, you have to be there to defend the player. They were there shooting in your face like a man. And

now nothing. You don't know when it's gonna come. The other day, I gotta I gotta envelope in the mail. I thought it was from your nana. I opened it. It was a three point shot. We lonched that game. It's coming to you from the Hot Times in New York City, the city in America. It's the Daily Tonight text from News the year in scil Handler. He's the Daily Show with Hey, what's going on? Everybody? Welcome to

the Daily Show. I'm Trevor Noah and joining me for today's headlines is my good friend Roy Wood Jr. What's going on at man? I'm just trying to find a karate class by five year old taking karate, so that means I gotta learn karate because the showdown is coming. I don't think that's how it works, Roy, I think you you can just let him do karate. Which one of us has a child? You okay? So do you let me worry about the showdown that's looming with my child?

Every child at some point challenges the father. That's how it goes. You've seen Star Wars. Well, good luck with that, Roy, and good luck to your child. All right, let's jump right into today's headlines. We kick things off with Omikron, the coronavirus variant named after disgraced CNN anchor Chris Cuomo Cron. It's now been three weeks since ocron was discovered, which means scientists are starting to get a handle on exactly

what we might be dealing with this morning. The fast spreading O Macron variant is adding fresh fears around the world. British Prime Minister Boris Johnson is warning of a looming tidal wave of O Macron cases in the UK. Health officials here are saying that no other COVID variant has spread this fast, and they fear that in less than thirty six hours O macron will become the dominant variant

here in London. Already it makes up of cases in the city and numbers are doubling every two to three days. The country of Norway is ramping up efforts to slow the spread of O macron and a new approach to decreasing gatherings there. The Prime Minister announced the country is placing a ban on serving alcohol in bars and restaurants. The moratorium comes as the country is facing record high COVID nineteen infections and hospitalizations. Wow, no drinking in Norway

in the winter. I mean, at that point you might as well die of COVID. Also, why are they keeping the boss open if you can't drink? Are the people out there who are like I still enjoy the communal peanuts and shouting conversations and standing in someone else's p wil I P. You know there's more to a bother than just drinking. Guys. Well, look, the point is omicron is spreading super fast, like, way faster than any other variants. Like we hadn't even heard about it a few weeks ago,

and now it's dominating the world. It's like the Olivia Rodrigo variants, and as it spreads, we're learning more about the effects of omicron. In fact, the first large study was just released out of South Africa and it has good news and bad news. Bomb womb. The bad news is, even if you have two doses of the fires of vaccine, you only get thirty three protection against infection from omicron. Right.

The good news is if you do get omicron, you're about thirty less likely to go to the hospital than with delta. But the bad news is there was a hot, single doctor at the hospital who could have been your soul mates and you'll never get to meet him. Yeah. The good new uses he has a lot of student debt and that would have totally weighed on your relationship after a while. Sorry, where was I going with this? Oh? Yeah, yeah. If you're worried about catching O macron, the good news

is that a booster shot is actually very effective. It's really effective protection. In fact, we shouldn't even be calling it a booster at this point. We just call it the third shot. You know, it seems like it's going to be completely necessary. Calling it a booster makes it sound optional, like someone's offering you a hot towel. Would you care for a booster shot? Yeah? What's with them hot tawels? With them hot towels anyway? Man, one minute is hot and they're like a second later is cold.

You don't even feel like it felt nice for a second and it's gone, like it's like it's a nice, warm, hot towel and then it just turned into a cold rag. No, nobody want to rag. It's instance as well. Yeah, that's that's that's part of the problem with it. It's like it's like it's like a thing hot, but it's like it's too hot as well, Like they give it to you and you can't hold it, and the next second it's freezing cold. Where did they heat this thing? How

did they heat this? Like what temperature? I don't understand these towels at all. You know where they messed up with the with this with this booster shot? Also, dog is that they like they messed up calling the first shot the vaccine. We're supposed to be vaccine done. They should have just called that medicine and then called this shot more medicine. Everybody everybody like mo medicine extra stress. That's how you have to call it more medicine and

not market it. That's how you do it. You know how people was taking all that whole stuff and drinking the bleach word of mouth. What are no commercials for it? Everybody want to be up on that new new Nobody wants to stop stop talking about the boost to see how many people who get the boost just make it like a whisper whisper campaign. Yeah, yeah, I got that booster. I just don't booster, and it was a booster booster. Let me get the boostop, you got the boosts? No booster? Man,

stop hate? Maybe, come on, man, I don't talk, I don't, don't don't. All right, let's move on to a story that the most two of America's most violent sports hockey and capitalism. Everyone knows that teachers in America underpaid, but what's really crazy is that teachers often have to spend their own money to buy supplies for their classrooms, which is insane. I mean, every time you hear this in America, you realize how insane this is because no other job

makes you do this. No one at McDonald's is ever like, oh, they won't fix the ice cream machine. I guess I'll have to bring my own ice cream from home. And it's not depressing enough that teachers buy supplies for their students. One hockey team in South Dakota, Well they found a way to make it even worse. In time. Now for stories everyone's talking about this morning, we start in South Dakota.

This blew up social media yesterday. Believe it angry. Yeah, and here's the video we're gonna show to a hockey teams event, drawing some serious criticism. Take a look. All right, so here's what's going on. The suit Fall Stampede hockey team held a dash for Cash competition Saturday. So these are ten teachers crawling around on the ice, grabbing as much money as they can to buy classroom supplies. However, many found this raw to have teachers fight for money.

Some leaving compared it to the Netflix show Squid Game. Oh come on, this is nothing like Squid Game. I mean, for starters, you don't need subtitles to realize how sadness is. And at least if you win school game, you get to keep the money. These poor teachers are debasing themselves

to pay for textbooks that don't even teach slavery. Its the most depressive thing I've ever seen at a sportsing events aside from any game where the Jets are playing, Like, I get that they were trying to help out the local teachers who need money for their classrooms, but you realize they could have just given them the money. Yeah, you don't have to turn their need into our entertainment. Can you imagine if lifeguards made you do like the

douggie before they saved you. Huh. Now you're they're drowning and you're like, I mean, would that be funny? Yes, but it's not appropriate. And you know, this really highlights how America cares so little about education. I mean, it's teachers are wrestling on the ground for dollar bills. Meanwhile, the defense budget of this country's over half a trillion dollars a year. And I'm not saying that defense contractors can't have that money, but they should at least have

to wrestle around in jello for it and naked. I want to see butts. It's a crazy story too, right, It's very crazy. It's like, why would you give teachers money for supplies at the end of the year, It's too late. Them kids are already flaunk man. They needed them supplies back in August. Why are you getting supplies to help kids? You ain't made an f. You can't bounce back from a December F. I don't know if you ever had a December F. But it's a wrap. Ain't not know what you can do to say that kid.

You just gotta tell them see you next year. You can stay in the class for the rest of the years, so you can be familiar with this ship next year. But once you got a December that's a waste of time. They should have them teachers out there on the ice back in August. It's an interesting point, Troy. I'm not gonna lie. It's a fair point. It's a solid point. It's what you meant to say. That is a solid point. Also, they didn't offer them teach us a hot town. That's

a disrespectful part of it. They touching money, Oh Macron out there. You just out there raw dog in cash with your hands, raw dog and you rob dog cash. I've never thought of it like that. Actually, we should hang out. We should, Roy should hang out. We should you learn some ship. Yeah, I would, I definitely would. All right, let's move on now to our main story, which is about former President Donald Jesse Smollette Trump and his attempt last year to overturn the election, which, by

the way, no judgment, no judgment at all. I mean, if you lost anything to Joe Biden, you'd also deny the ship out of it. An election, a foot race, an arm wrestling match. I mean, have you seen that guy. It's like losing to a soggy sponge. Hell if Joe Biden beating at rock paper says is I chopped with both my hands, just be like, yeah, I've never played

this game. Now. One of the guys who have the most information about Trump's attempts to overthrow the election is his former chief of staff, Lock Meadows, but as of a few weeks ago, he suddenly stopped talking. Lawmakers investigating the January six attack on the Capitol have run out of patients with Mark Meadows. Mark Meadows made the decision to cooperate, and then he made the decision to uncooperate, and as a result, we're going to have to hold

him in criminal contempt. The committee says they've got questions about documents Meadows has handed over, which shed light on what the Trump White House knew about the insurrection before it began. The committee is also interested in the weeks leading up to the insurrection and meadows involvement in efforts to undermine the election outcome. When presented with the idea of certain states sending alternate slates of electors to Congress,

Meadows responded, I love it. M mmmmmm. Get you a man who loves you the way Mark Meadows loves overthrowing democracy? See that. I love it. I love it. I mean to be fair, though I love it. There's also what you send when you want the other person to think you actually read through all their texts when you didn't. So maybe it was like that with Mark Meadows. I don't know. The fact is, though it looks like Mark Meadows was very involved in Trump's plan to overturn the election.

He pushed the Justice Department to investigate and made up voter fraud. He tried to block states from certifying their electors, and he even made Trump licked the Oval Office desk to claim dibbs. And it definitely doesn't look good that he stopped cooperating with the investigation. I mean, I do get it. Though, he can't be disloyal to Trump, because

in Trump world, loyalty is everything. You take care of Trump, and Trump takes care of you, unless you're John Bolton or Jeff Sessions or Rudy Giuliani or Millennia, Michael Cohen or anybody else he's ever known. It's called loyalty. But before he stopped co operating, Meadows did hand over a lot of documents to the committee, and one thing they discovered were a bunch of frantic text messages that he got during the Capital riots, and some of them, some

of them came from Donald Trump's closest advisers. Thoughts Entertainers frantically texted Mark Meadows as the Capital riot was happening and urged him to get then President Trump to stop it. In one text exchange, Hannity urged Meadows to tell Mr Trump to quote make a statement and ask people to leave the capital. Brian Kilneed saying please get him Trump on TV, destroying everything you have accomplished. Laura Ingram writing, Mark, the president needs to tell the people in the Capitol

to go home. This is hurting all of us. He is destroying his legacy. Oh man, this is so amazing. Yeah, because you realized Fox News has spent the whole year acting like January six was nothing, just not thing. It's just a few you know, patriots, just having their voices here. But it turns out that in private, they were freaking

out about it, freaking out. It's like finding out the flight attendant who's been telling you that it's just a little turbulence is actually going back into the cockpit, Like, doesn't anybody know how to fly this thing? We're all gonna die. On your left you can see the rocky mountains, really beautiful. Just pre stay in your seat, folks. And I love that they were so concerned that this could

ruin Trump's legacy. If he gets somebody killed today, no one will remember that time he told everyone to drink bleach. It's crazy that CNN fired Chris Cuomo because he was caught giving secret advice to a politician his brother. But now it turns out that basically everyone at Fox News was giving secret advice to President Trump and these people. But I mean, I guess that's what makes it okay. Yeah, Like, if one person at your network has no integrity, that's

a problem. If nobody has integrity, that's a company policy. Fox News, we all Ireland. But the best part of this text dump is that it wasn't just Fox hosts who were freaking out about Trump's response to the riot. No, there were also texts from President Trump's oldest son and men who never has to worry about chin cancer down Jr. As the violence continued, one of the president's sons texted Mr Meadows quote, He's got to condemn this ship asap.

The Capitol Police tweet is not enough, Donald Trump Junior texted. Donald Trump Junior texted again and again, urging action by the president. Quote, we need an Oval Office address. He has to lead now. It has gone too far and gotten out of hand. It appears that Dawn Junior himself thought the insurrection had gone too far and had gotten out of hand, which suggests that he was okay with an insurrection that was a little more in control. WHOA,

what's with all this violence? I kind of thought we could overthrow the government in like a cool, fun way, like Oceans eleven, Like we sneak in and still democracy before anyone noticed, and we're all wearing cool suits, and George Clooney is like, you guys are cool, and I'd

be like, you're cool, George Clooney something like that. Now, clearly Don Junior's texts didn't work, which, honestly, I'm kind of glad about, because the only thing worse than an insurrection would have been having to thank Don Junior for stopping an insurrection. Thank you for saving democracy, Don Junior.

But still seeing Don Junior desperately trying to get a message to his own father, I mean that tells you a lot about their relationship, right, And those those aren't even the only texts that he sent Mark Meadows that day. In fact, a source has provided the Daily Show with additional texts, and I'm going to read them to you

right now. Later that day, Don Jr. Texted Mark Meadows again, quote, hey man, I just wanted to see if you pass those messages to my dad yet, And then quote, actually, it might be easier if you gave me my dad's numbers so I can text him directly, question Mark. Some time passed, and then another text let me know about my dad's number, but no, Rush, I know ship is cray Law. And finally that night, quote, come on, man, at least give me his email, and then three prayer

hands emojis. There was no response, So yes, January six, riot rocked America to its care, but even worse, it broke Don Junior's hearts. Hilarious. All right, when we come back, we'll take a look at all the biggest scams of and Chelsea Handler is my guest, which means she's joining me on the show. You don't want to miss it. Welcome back to the Daily Show. Is almost over, and I think we can all agree that compared to last year,

it has been a perfect year. So for the rest of the month, we'll be remembering all of best moments in our year end segments, look back the least bad year of the last two years. To night, Michael Costa takes a look at all the top scams of the year. A lot changed in the length of Kanye's name, the energy level of our president, my in laws, Hulu password, but one thing that didn't change is that people still

fell for anything. You know how they say a sucker is born every minute, Well, this year there was more sucking going on than an orgy at the Dyson factory. Starting with one of the most ridiculous scams. People fell for n f t s otherwise known as non fungible tokens. It's basically when you buy the rights to a piece of digital art and hang onto your Apple wallets. They

got pretty expensive. Two hundred thousand dollars for a Lebron James dunking clip, six hundred thousand for I don't even know what that is in the middle, and millions for Jack Dorsey's first tweet. This image of digital toilet paper is worth bucks for digital toilet paper. I guess it'll come in handy when I have to take a dump.

In the metaverse, sadly, gullible idiots spent millions on n f t s thinking they have actual value, when in reality they can become worthless at any time, which I found out the hard way when I sold my house to buy this n f D of a dog wearing pantyhose. What can I say? I love art. My next favorite scam of was the meme stock. All year long, people were pumping money into terrible businesses just because the Internet

thought it was cool. It was the financial equivalent of the tide Pod Challenge, and no stock was more memed than Game Stop. It's stock a bit declining in value for a long time because it's a store that tries to sell you video games that you can download at home, and if there's one thing gamers love, it's leaving their house ever. But of course, like all meme stocks, this whole thing is the big roller coaster ride, and the only question is who's the sucker Who's gonna be left

holding the bag when the price crashes. Turns out it was me. I bought it all at the top. Not totally my fault. My cousin is a hedge fund manager, and he assured me that this thing was full proof. Anyway, He's living in Turks and Caicos now and I'm living in an airport la Quina. But let's move from Wall Street to Pennsylvania Avenue, home of the scam that kicked off is somehow still going strong. It's the biggest lie since that Fedora looks great on you. Trump's claims of

voter fraud. He and the GOLP convinced his supporters that Joe Biden stole the election, which led to the January six insurrection a k a Q cella Maga palooza, white Stock. I mean, guys, come up. If the election had been rigged, we would know by now, probably because Biden would have accidentally set it in a speech. The man has no filter, but Instead, people were foolishly led to believe that they could actually stop the election from being certified. But the

truth is that was never possible. Unfortunately I only found that out after I got mazed by Capitol police inside Chuck Schumer's office. I got his mouse bad as a souvenir, though still has some chicken salad stains on it. Anyway, as I said up my bail hearing, I deeply regret my participation. Let's move on to CRT, or critical race theory.

This was a big scam spread by right wing culture warriors that suggested your kids elementary school was teaching white kids that slavery was their fault and some parents they bought at hook line and Sinker. The Western culture and values that brought forth Christianity and the Founding Documents are being called evil and racist market cancer. Just because I do not want critical race theory taught to my children in school does not mean that I have a racist

dam See our tea is evil. If I lived in the school zone or had a kid, I would pull him out of this school forever. Oh yeah, I forgot that. I was part of that too, So I got got again. But the scam that best sums up without a doubt iver mecton. It was the medicine for people who would take anything to prevent COVID except for the free and

effective vaccine that could prevent COVID. So some pretty twisted individuals took this opportunity to promote the idea that a veterinary grade horse de Wermer could prevent entreat COVID, and people fell for it so bad that pet stores even started selling out of it, which really sucks for the horses. It's bad enough humans give them names like Daddy's Velvet and Smoky Midnight Blossom. Now people were taking all their medicine.

Although full disclosure, I did take something, but in my defense, it seemed like such a bad idea that it made me think maybe it wasn't a bad idea. That's how they get you sometimes. Anyway, long story short, I came down with something my vet is calling horse diarrhea. I don't know exactly what that means because that's the clinical term, but to be honest, I've never felt so worm free in my entire life. So as we go into let's

take with us the lessons we learned this year. Stay vigilant, Be smart, and do your own research, but not in the crazy way. The only way to protect yourself from getting scam is to Oh, holy sh it, Bill Gates just emailed me and he wants to send me some cash. I'm gonna be rich. Who who? Thank you so much for that, Michael. All right, when we come back, the hilarious Chelsea Handler will be joining me right here in the studio, so don't go away. Welcome back to the

Daily Show. My guest tonight's is best selling author and comedian Chelsea Handler. She'sy to talk about her vaccinated and horny stand up to her and her recent Grammy nomination. Chelsea Handler, Welcome to the show. Hi, Trevor, how are you. I've been better, but I'm good. I'm getting that every day. How are you. I'm doing well. I noticed that you got a new studio here. The last time I was here, we were somewhere else, yes, which means we weren't here,

but yes, yeah, yeah, exactly, that's exactly what it means. Anyway, congratulations on the upgrade. The rooms were delightful, Thank you very much. Thank you so much. It's like a work in progress of life, and I feel like we're all in it right now. It's like nothing is back to normal. We're in the hybrid phase and then you know, we're gonna get ready to go back to a different phase of life, and let's talk about you and your phases though.

People's Choice Award. Congratulations, Oh my god, I beat you and the People's Choice Best Comedy to our category. I was in the category. Yeah, you were nominated for a People's Choice Award, but then I won. I wouldn't say congratulations had I known. I just thought you want an award. I thought you were being a big boy about it. I was gonna say, great, look at you. No, no, okay, well let's take it back, you guys, let's go back.

But for real, congratulations, thank you, and congratulations like for me, I think, you know, for all of us as comedians. The Grammy nomination, I mean, you know this is the first one, right. No. I was in Hawaii with Joe Koy and I woke up and I, yeah, this is definitely my first one. And I got a text from my agent and she said, You've been nominated for a Grammy Award, And I was like, a Grammy for what? I mean? The irony? I have no rhythms I can't sing,

I can't dance. And so I was like, Joe, I've been nominated for a Grammy. He's like, are you kidding me? So that's exciting, that's comedians have that feeling. It literally is a weird feel because you don't think of the Grammys as including like stand up in that way is that you do have the comedy album as well. And so I mean, I was just happy for you because I feel like you've just Chelsea, You've been making hits for a very long time, like your best selling author, right,

what's five or six books? Now? How many? Six? Number one New York Times best selling books? I mean, but who am I to brag? You know what I mean? I just want to set the record straight. You know what I mean? Um, you have? I mean every TV show has been a hit. And now we're seeing the new Chelsea, the Chelsea and love. Yeah, right, people love it. They love to see me in love. Well, I think because for a long time people have only seen you

as like the horny Chelsea. I mean, like even you're true like vaccinated in horny, like we know like that. Chelsea's like I'm drinking wine, I'm horny. And now this, Chelsea is like, well, I'm in love. I'm still horny, but more directed at one person now than it's ever been. And yeah, it's really nice to see the reaction from people being so happy that I'm in love. Like I didn't realize how many people were rooting for me, you know,

Like I want to give people women my age hope. Like, you know, if you don't settle for all these idiots out there, the good one is gonna come. And I mean for men and women alike, you know, and people who don't identify as either. It's like when you set the standard for yourself that the tide rises. And yeah, I think that's true. One thing I've always wanted, though,

is like what it's like to date a comedian. I don't think I have a could because I don't know, Like what are the rules If you're dating a comedian, then who gets the jokes? Because at some point you're having a conversation, a brilliant premise comes up? Who gets it? Yeah? Well, I mean we're pretty good about sharing that, you know. And Joe is like, uh, he's not your typical comedian.

He's very very bright and cheerful, and it's infectious you know, he keeps everybody kind of up up, so, I mean it's a lot to hands on, especially for me because I'm such a sinister bitch. I'm like, well, but then after a while it wears off on you. You're like, yeah, I'm feeling pretty happy to these days. So we split the jokes, you know, like if he comes up with he sleeps with a c PAT machine on his face, for instance, because he's sleep apnia, so he sleeps with

the contraptions. Yeah. Yeah, and I tried that. It was terrible. Oh do you have sleep appanie? No, I just tried the machine. It was just like a phase I was going through. I was just like, let's see how this goes. He sleeps with one of those on, and that's like it's like when he puts that on, it's like he is going into a submarine for the rest of the night. You know, it's out and see you later. I see you in the morning. There's no like romance with those things.

There's no interruption of anything. Now, it's like you're on life support the whole night and then wake up. He's trying not to die. And then in the morning he wakes up to this piece of work. So I told him, you know, I was like, listen. He said something about the way I sleep, and I said, listen, I'm going to bed with an octopus every single night, so why don't you go? And he he uses that in his stand up, you know that because he talks about his

sleep apnea. Apparently everybody's got sleep at me and most people don't know about it. So all these men out there, I understand it's a contraption and it's not hot, it's not. But I mean, if I'm sitting there sleeping with it every night, I bet you there's a lot more within That's that's like the definition of love. That's like true love is if you can see pep at night with the person next to you, then you know what's love, right exactly. You talk about everything in your stand up.

I've always envied that about you, to be honest, Like, I love how you just you share everything in your life. You'll you'll make jokes about it, you'll have fun with it. There's no barriers for you. I mean you even joked about you wanting to have sex with Andrew Cuomo and then like dealing with like the him now being canceled, and also just like being found guilty of things like it to etcetera. Like as Chelsea Handler, I'd love to know where you got that confidence just to do that,

Like where did that come from? Oh? Well thanks? I mean I have a lot of misplaced confidence. For a long time, I thought I could sing a dance until I tried off for the cheerleading squad and they tested me for scoliosis the next day. So I have a lot of confidence in areas until somebody flashes a big

red light and says, don't do it. The Andrew Cuomo thing was very funny because when that didn't work out with you know, Andrew Cuomo, like he would nothing ever happened between us, but I had a big, you know, loud crush on him. My sister's like, Mom is cock blocking you from heaven? And I go, really, that's what you think Mom is doing up in heaven cock blocking me? And she's like, yeah, you need to be cock blocked

by these people. And then yeah, she's like if you were with Andrew Cuomo, you would have never met Joe Koy. She's like, Mom's at work up there. I like this, Um, you're on tour. It's still happening. You've won the award for it over me. Congratulations, Um, Grammy, No, I'm not angry. I'm just better. Better. I think it's it's the time of the tragedy has not passed yet for me because I just found out about it. You you set down here. Yeah, this is a horrible time for me to find out.

So we've got the tour, You got the Grammy nomination. What are you looking forward to. I've been really enjoying being on the road for this tour. It's been it's so great to be a reason, as you well know, to bring people back together for the very first time, to remind people about togetherness and humanity and you know, not focus on the politics of everything right now, because I'm so exhausted by all of that too. Yeah, I

think everyone is. Everyone's sick of it. Everyone's sick of me hearing and talking about it, and people are sick of talking about it. So it's been nice to have like a celebratory fun, you know, making fun of all the behavior we all got up to during COVID, which was seriously embarrassing.
