Speaker 1

You're listening to Comedy Central. Wow, when did movies become like a daylong event? Can anybody tell me this? While moving? Like the New Batman is three hours? Guys, three hours? Now It's like I'm in book territory now, do you know what I mean? The whole reason I went into the movies because I didn't have time for the book. Now I'm in the movie. Now I'm just like, yeah, Okay, I guess this is the book. But now I'm stuck at the pace that the movie goes. Why why are

we making movies this long? What is it for? You know what I mean? It's like like a documentary series. Now I'm just gonna watch the parts of Batman that I don't find interesting. And this is Batman doing his Texas Bruce. The company is struggling. Why is this in the movie? It's coming to you from the heart of Times where in New York City, the only city in America. It's The Daily Show. Here's edition tonight, the State of the Union, the State of Ukraine. Stay Abrams, this is

the Daily Show with ever know? Hey, what's going on? Everybody? Welcome to The Daily Show. I'm Trevor Noah and joining me for today's headlines is our very own running check. What's going on, Reache. I've missed you, man, Trevor. Good to see you. I too, have been dismayed by recent events, namely Russia invading Ukraine, and I've been doing my part on social media. Now I'm not trying to say I'm my hero, but I've been asking this stupid bott on my Instagram comments to off and I think I may

have single handedly turned the tide of this war. So look, we all in this together. It's not about me. But if you see me comment on the Instagram post, please like my comment. Powerful stuff, Ronnie. I'm glad that you didn't make it about you like most people would, but really powerful. Thank you. All right, let's jump into today's headlines.

We kick things off with the latest from Ukraine, where despite fierce resistance from the Ukrainian people, Russian troops are now moving into major cities and advancing on the capitol of Kiev, and folks, there is really no hiding from this war. Russians have reportedly attacked hospitals, schools, and yesterday Russian bombs even hit a Holocaust memorial, which I'm sorry that like is the final show that goes to show how evil Houton is. Like the guy's bombing Holocaust memorials.

I don't even feel comfortable using a bathroom at a Holocaust memorial. It's too disrespectful. I'm just like, yeah, we'll find a Starbucks. It's fine. And the foremot from the rest of the world continued today as the United Nations approved the resolution demanding that Russia stop this war. But I mean, if we're honest, you and resolutions don't really mean ship to Russia. You know. The United Nations may as well have come out and made one of those

imagined videos where everyone sings. Still wouldn't have done anything, but at least we would have laughed. And so if you're looking for for more bad news, clearly sick person.

But here it is. There's now a hint that this invasion may only be the first in a series, as a world wonders what Lad of your boots next move might be his ally, the president of Belarus, Alexander Lukashenko, may have given away the game Tuesday when he was pictured in front of a battle map that may have indicated plans for Moldova, which lies to the west of Ukraine. Lukashenko stood in front of a Ukrainian map detailing Russia's

battle plan, which suggests moving troops from Odessa into neighboring Moldova. Okay, this is just crazy, man. There's a chance that Russia is planning to invade Moldova after Ukraine. And what's even crazier is that we know this because this guy the leader of Belarus and clearly the stepdad in every eighties Porno filmed himself giving away the plans, just standing there. This is the plan. This is the plan. Like I almost got like this compy real life, you know, because

this is what happens in the movies. You know, there's always like a henchman who's like, DC is the master plan. We're going through Old No, Mr Bunk took a picture with his commodore Penis. Get him. Also, feel bad for the intern who had to get that map. Yeah, they probably killed everyone in that Kinko's to keep it a secret, and then his boss just puts it on TV. He has where we here's how it's gonna go. Actually, Trevor, I mean right now we live in the age of misinformation,

so we don't know what that is. We'll know if that's real, we'll know if that's photos edited. We don't even know if Belarus is a real country. I mean, all we do know is that, I mean, that guy could be pointing to anything. Maybe that's his marketing strategy for bringing Paramount plus to Ukraine, you know, and the arrows are like the marketing forces. And or maybe I don't know, maybe that's a map of Middle Earth and he's pointing. He's telling Fraudo where the volcano is so

he can end everything. You know, we don't know. Maybe it's an n f T. I'm just saying, even if we even if we think that that is a map of Ukraine and that is his battle plans, maybe he's the greatest double agent ever. Maybe this is his way of leaking intel to the West without anyone figuring it out. So before we call this guy a dumb boomer, let's just figure out the facts first. You might be the most optimistic person I've ever met. Ronnie. That's my middle name,

Ronnie Chang. Positive and optimistic. All right, let's move on. Spring is on its way in America, and you know what that means. Sunny days, flowers blooming, eating your weights in Clareton. But there's one spring tradition that is unfortunately getting canceled. For the first time in more than a quarter century, Major League Baseball is canceling games over a labor dispute. The calendar dictates that we're not going to be able to play the first two series of the

regular season, and those games are officially canceled. That's games so far. Economics are at the heart of it. Major League Baseball saw revenues go from around eight billion to nearly eleven billion right before the pandemic. Yet player salaries went down slightly for four straight years, and of the four major American sports, baseball has the lowest minimum salary at around five seventy thousand. No, oh no, don't cancel the baseball games. How else will I get to spend

forty five dollars on a hot dog? That's a little to drive a The MLB is canceling games because the players and the league cannot agree on who gets to share the money. Yes, and I'll be honest with you, I was shocked that baseball players minimum pay is less than all the other leagues, especially considering that this sport brings in eleven billion dollars, And yes, I know dollars is a lot of money. It is a lot of money.

But when you think about it from the players point of view, think about how long a baseball game is. What is that break down to It's like what four dollars an hour? And by the way, please remember this. I know a lot of people go like I hate the sport, but don't remember that when this happens, a lockout doesn't just affect the players. It affects everyone who works in and around the game, like the people who work at the stadium, the people who work just outside

the stadium, right. It affects the HighRes, the guys selling beer, the security guard who tackles the naked guys who run out into the field. Yeah. In fact, just to pay the bills, Mr Mets has already had to start an only fans account. It's sad, sexy. Everyone's being very alarmous about this. All right, dude, this is America. As though they're gonna stop baseball, it's gonna come back. Of course, they're gonna find an agreement. What's alternative, They're just gonna

never play baseball again. Of course it's gonna happen. This is like, it's like an encore to Billy Joel concert. You know he's gonna play piano. Man, just calm the downs. Wait, there's no patience here in America. We love baseball. We don't like patients, which is ironic because it's the game you need the most patience for because it's long. Alright, finally, let's talk about the movies. The only way to legally stay at Chris Evans for two and a half hours.

During the COVID pandemic, millions of people decided that going to movie theaters wasn't worth the risk. I mean, going to the movies was already a risk before COVID. You know, best case scenario that sticky patch you was sitting in withda So with movie theaters losing ticket revenues during the pandemic, one major chain has come up with a really slick idea. They're going to charge more for the movies that people actually want to see. You may still have to pay

a little bit more to go to the movies. A m C has started testing a new pricing model, starting with higher prices for tickets to The Batman. AMC is trying out a variable pricing system, which means new movies will cost you more than older releases playing at the very same location. Who wa wa wa wa hold on, hold on hollo AMC is gonna make us pay more to see new movies. That's not fair. Oh, that's that's

not fair people, because what we're we gonna do. We're gonna have to pay to see the Batman, Like we can't not pay otherwise. How are we ever going to know where he came from? Huh? Like there's no other way to know, Like he's one of his parents, a bat and the other man. This is the first opportunity we have to find it out and look. To be honest,

I don't know if this is the worst model. You know, I've always found it where that you pay the same amount for old movies as you do for the latest releases. You know, So this is this is actually gonna make sense. It's like it's like going back to the blockbuster rules. Yeah, and that business did well, you know what I mean. But I will say this, I'm worried that this is

a slippery slope. Man, It's gonna be just like the airlines. Yeah, first they say they're just charging us extra for the new movies, then they're gonna say certain seats in the cinema, I'm gonna cost extra. Next thing, you know, AMC won't let me bring in a big bowl of my favorite soup from home. What is happening to American man? You're seeing this Joe Byron. In fact, here's my counter offer to a MC. If you want to charge us more for new movies, fine, but as movie goers, we're gonna

start paying you in increments throughout the movie. Yeah, I can't just give you all the money up front. We don't know if it's gonna be shipped every fifteen minutes, which is gonna be like, here's five dollars, show me the beginning, all right, here's another five. I want to see what happens to that guy. After that'll be like now I'm done, I'm done. Yeah, you got you gotta

entertain me the whole time. I'm sick of these movies that take ninety minutes to get going and then they have like one scene that's dope and yes, I'm talking to you, Power off the dog. Wait, Trevor, you know how this dynamic price is gonna work? Like they're gonna it's an algorithm based and you're gonna have to track your data to determine what you like, and that's how you more for it. So easy solution. Okay, just keep the movies you want to watch, just keep talking about

how much they suck. Then your phone pick up on that. You'll get an algorithm, and then your movies will be cheaper, like right now, Like, let's just start it right now. Call that Patterson as Batman. That's gross. Bring back ben Affleck. Also, everybody knows they don't get you on the ticket price. Okay, the movie theaters get you on the snacks. That's why I always keep some popcorn right in my teint just in case I ever need to go watch a movie.

They'll never get me on this. I even like to keep some Snickers melted in there, just so it's sweet and salty. You know what I'm saying. You want some? You know? That is one of the most disgusting things I have ever seen. You can't mix snickers with popcorn. You can't mix. It's like a different don't knock get to you. Try it. Try a little bit. I mean a little bit. There's more way that came from. That's tinty. That's nice. That's actually really good. Oh man, I need

to go to the movies with you more often time. Man, all right, we gotta take a quick break so me and Ronnie can eat some popcorn. When we come back, we'll recap Joe Biden's first ever State of the Union address and Stacy Abrams, Yes these, Stacy Abrams is joining me right here on the show. You don't want to miss it. Don't eat it all by yourself. Come on, I found some more. I found some more. Yeah, I don't eat it all by yourself. Come on, Welcome back

to the Daily Show. Let's talk about the State of the Union address, the one it's a year Joe Biden stays up past six pm. It's also the one night a year where the President gives the country estates as update about how things are going, which, if we're honest, there's always been a little bit weird to me. You know, It's like, why does it only happen once a year, Like you get more updates from your doggie daycare in one afternoon, then you get from the president an entire year.

It's a little weird, but whatever, the point is, it's an important night, which is why everyone everyone from senators to Supreme Court justices to military generals all show up, although this year it was interesting because there were fewer people in attendance than normal because some lawmakers didn't want to follow the COVID protocols. Yes, like Marco Rubio who said, quote, he didn't have time to take a COVID test, and honestly,

I don't have time to take a COVID test. Is a brave stance for someone who's tweeted like fifty times in the last twenty four hours, to be honest, it is actually kind of relatable. You know. This is like when I say I don't have time to make now because I'm watching TikTok. You've seen those auts. Know they're so cute and they'll kill you, but they're cute. But once everyone who had forty seconds to take the test was seated, it was time for Joe Biden himself to

enter the chamber and greet his guests. And I'm proud, ladies and gentlemen to say that we at the Daily Show have exclusive footage of what he said to these people as he walked to the podium. The President of the United States, Hey, oh ship, I can't find my speech. Hey, hey, quit you what's the state of the Union. Hey, how are you doing? Is the Union strong? Is it a weak? Is it? Emo? Vibe shift ah ship, I'm ringing at a time. I'll just ring a I know rough start

for Biden recovered people. Oh he recovered you see. Joe Biden launched into this speech that touched on everything, Russia, COVID, inflation, so much more. Entering a chamber filled with yellow and blue, the colors of the Ukrainian flag, President Biden forcefully condemning Vladimir Putin. He thought he could roll in the Ukraine and the world would roll over. Instead, he met with the mall wall of strength he never anticipated or imagined.

He met the Ukrainian people, Ukraine's ambassador to the US, receiving a standing ovation and an embrace from First Lady Jill Biden. The President also suggesting America is finally emerging from the pandemic. Stop looking at COVID as a partisan dividing line. See it for what it is. I've got awful disease. And despite a fast growing economy, President Biden acknowledging too many people are still feeling the pain of

rising prices. Inflation is robbing the moving games. They thought otherwise they would be able to feel I get it. In one surprising moment of unity, the president trying to move his party to the middle with a message on Time that even got some Republicans on their feet. It answers not to defund the police, is to fund the police funding funding. Yeah, you heard that right, Joe Biden said fund the police. But I thought that was a Republican thing. I thought Democrats wanted to build those police

stations and replace them with community poetry centers. Maybe, but not Joe Biden. People forget I don't know why people forget this. For years, Joe Biden has been saying that he wants to invest more resources and training into the police. For years. He's been saying this. The reason you probably might have missed it is because of how he speaks. We've got a police, the funding and fund the funders. You know, come on, Jack, he's a fine negro putting

multiple speeches in one. I see what he's doing is saving time. So look, this was not a surprise from Joe Biden. And honestly, I'm just glad he didn't get too swept up and that applause and go even further fund the police. All lives matter, Let's go Brandon. Wait

that was about me. But it is kind of crazy that nothing has really changed when it comes to the police, right, Just think about it for a moment, Like whether you want to defund the police or like Biden, spend even more money on reforming them, You've got to admit that neither of those things have actually happened. And fatal police

shootings actually went up last year. Yeah, so really, when you think about it, after all the marches and the protests and the national conversation, oh we rarely got was

Nancy Pelosi's can take clothing line. But aside from policing and COVID and Ukraine, Biden also brought up a lot of policies last night that he wanted Congress to pass this year, like letting Medicaan negotiate the price of drugs and doubling clean energy production and raising taxes on corporations and strengthening voting rights, which are all great ideas that I can't wait for him to bring up again at next year's State of the Union because I mean, if

we're honest now, that ship is going to pass through this Congress. But Biden himself was doing his thing. Man was giving a speech, he was in his elements, and Biden being Biden. There were a bunch of moments in the speech that were just a little bit weirder than they had to be, you know, um like when he said this, if you get COVID nineteen, the fiser pill reduces your chances have ended up in the hospital. By I've ordered more pills than anyone in the world has. Okay, okay,

I guess the parties that Joe Biden's asked tonight. It would be funny if he meant that he ordered all of those pills, but just for himself. If I get Corona, I'm all set. Good luck to the rest of you bitches. Oh and then there was also this moment where Joe Biden was praising the people of Ukraine. Putin a circle Keeve with tanks, but it will never gain the hearts and souls of the Iranian people. Technically true. It is technically true. Putin can do whatever he wants in Ukraine.

Nothing will make the Iranians back down. You know. At times the speech was like a birthday card from a four year old. A lot of the words didn't make sense, but you got what it was trying to say. And a pound of Ukrainian people, proud, proud people, pound for pound, ready to fight with every inch of urenergy they have, proud pound pound pround, pound pound proud. It wasn't a bad safe. You have to admit it wasn't the worst save in the world. Here's a question I have, honest question, America.

How come no politician in this country can never just go excuse me and then correct themselves, Like why do they just carry on as if it wasn't Trump did this all the time too. You know, they always gonna twist the words and then make it sound like they didn't mess up. This country was built on fandom, freedom of fandom and idea of freedom. And who's not a fan of freedom anyway? This country was built on freedom

by a guy named Fandom. I love fandom. And then, of course there was the thing that Biden said rights at the end of his speech, which wasn't a mistake but left everybody con used. God bless you off, I may God protect our troops. Thank you, Go get him. I'm sorry, God, protect our troops. Go get him. Get who Go get God or the troops should get putin. Who go get him? Who? What? What is that? What

does Biden just randomy shop go get him? Sometimes? I mean it would explain why his dog kept attacking people. But honestly, the weirdest moments would would like Biden just like doing these things and go go get him, Go get him, go get him. Was it one singular plure? I don't know. I actually I stand crazy. Those weren't

the weirdest moments. Actually, the weirdest moments didn't come from Biden. No, they came from the people who couldn't figure out when to clap for Biden, Like this moment from Chuck Schuma the American Rescue Plan, The American Rescue Plan, help working p people and left no one behind. Hilarious. You see that. It's like it was like it was trying to rehearse his standing ovation. Okay, first the legs and then you put the hands. Okay, I think I got it, guys,

I'm ready, I'm ready. Look, man, there's a simple rule in life. If you stand up in a speech at the wrong time, you've just gotta commits. All right, You stand up, you clap, and then you walk out that building and straight into the ocean. You die like a man. And if you thought that was really bad, then please tell me what the hell Nancy Pelosi was doing here. And our troops in Iraq and faced in Rafghanistan faced many dangers. One being stationed the base is breathing in

toxic smoke from burn pits. Many of you have been there. I've been out of Iraq and Afghanistan over forty times. What is that? What is that? Huh? Looks like someone found all those pills. Joe Biden ordered ship like her face, her hands, her body, because such a weird like giddiness, you know what it looks like, almost makes it look like a cartoon character that's floating towards an apple pie tasty and I can't get over the hands, like just

let's let it go. And he looks like she was playing like rock papers is with herself and then somehow just ended in the makeout says oh yeah, you like that rocks, don't you. So that was basically the state of the Union. That was it in a nutshell to be honest, I mean, according to Joe Biden, inflation is bad, but he will try to make it better. Drug prices are bad, but he will try to make it better. And I don't know who him is, but someone's coming to get him. And you know what that makes me?

Just me? Okay, all right, when we come back, Stacy Abrams will be joining me right here on the show, so don't go away. Welcome back to the Daily Show. My guest tonight is eaching rights activists and entrepreneur Stacy Abrams. She's here to talk about her latest book and about running again for governor of Georgia. Stacy Abrams, Welcome back to the show. Thanks for having me again. I don't even know where to start, because every time I see you, I feel like you're doing more and more things. So

let's start with the book. Okay, level up. Very few people can say that they have run for governor. And also is it a three times New York Times best seller or four? Well? Forgive, I mean it's it's counting four times four times in New York Times. Business an advocates and my I love that. Um you like yes? Here's my first question? Maybe is that as like you do so well writing, why why stress yourself with politics? I love writing, but I also love people, and people

do better when they have good leadership. People do really well when they have leaders that like them, and so I want to be one of those people who actually likes people and wants to help them from the office of governor. Okay, people feel that level up. A book about essentially small businesses and how to grow them and the challenges that you do. You share the fact that you had businesses that failed. Most politicians will always just be like, no, that didn't fail. I pivoted. It's the pivot.

People love the pivot. One of the big things you learn about when reading the book is just how many small businesses fail. Now. I don't know if I'm in the minority here, but I sometimes wonder if there's too much of an obsession with starting your own business in America. Like it. It feels like there's this thing. I don't know if it's attached to the American dream, but it feels like everyone is told you have to start your

own business. Is there a reason you chose to start your own business and not to just work in a field that was already you know, all business that already exists. Oh, I like paychecks. They made me very happy. I was like pechecks. I was a tax attorney, and that was a nice paycheck, and then I began what my mother has called my trajectory of downward economic mobility. When I left there, it became deputy City attorney for Atlanta when

I decided to run for office, though I couldn't. I didn't feel right staying in my job as a lawyer for the city when I was running for political office, and so I left and I became what I call a redeluctant entrepreneur. I had to find a way to pay for my mortgage since I was going to leave my job, and that's when I started my business. And for a lot of people starting a small business, isn't this Horatio Alger story. It's not because they all want

to be many moguls. It's often circumstances. A mom who needs to take care of her kids but also needs to make a living, and so she starts a business in her in her front, in her kitchen. It's people who need opportunities. And so my mission is to say, regardless of why you start your small business, here's what you need to know about it. Because these are the things no one's going to tell you. Shark tank is not going to happen for most of us. So here's what we need to do, and that it's going to

be difficult in Georgia. Right now, of the businesses in Georgia are small businesses. Of the employees are employed by small businesses. And so if we don't understand small businesses, we're in a lot of trouble. And if we don't do our work to prop them up and to help them, support them as they grow, oh and more importantly, help them scale, then we're actually hurting the very people we say we want to help in our economy. If you were should become the governor of Georgia, people are screaming

as I say that and cheering right now. If you were to become the governor of Georgia, what are some of the first steps you think you would take to help small businesses? If you say them, awesome, all businesses in Georgia. What do you think could change? We can government step in and and and WI should that um, you know, sort of that marriage end between the government helping a small business whilst also making a business of business.

First thing we need to do is to expand medicate to Georgia, which sounds like a completely counterintuitive answer to the question you ask it does, but Georgia spends billions of dollars and what's called uncompensated care, we pay for people who can't afford healthcare. Part of that is the fact that we have failed to take money that belongs to Georgians and reinvested in healthcare. But Medicaid expansion and george will create sixty six or sixty thou new jobs.

When you expand medicaid, you create small businesses, and it's an infusion of capital that comes from commerce, not from loans. Number two, we should we should teach young people how to start busicists, even if they don't ever want to start one of their own. They should know what it looks like and then should it makes some better employees. If you understand how business works, then you understand why your boss who has two employees cannot pay you what

your friend at Coca colamics. And so it's it's creating that that lexicon and that understanding. And the third is encouraging financial systems to actually loan money when you have to do that in communities that don't have it. After the Great Recession, Black communities in particular lost banks and they never came back. And so when the p P P loans came out a good intention of government. The money went to places that we're not willing to lend

to the very communities that needed. And as governor I would pay attention to that. I would say, we need to use these small these black owned banks, or these Latino owned banks, these community banks, we need to use those as depositories so when money comes the next time, there's someone in the community who's ready to loan it. Let's talk about politics, which is everything in a America all the time. Um, you are running for a seat that in a state that has become, i mean, one

of the lightning rods of American politics, Georgia. What's interesting about this race is the fact that Governor Kemp has put into place multiple restrictions on how people can vote, when people can vote. He's reduced the availability of voting for people. Republicans will argue the same thing. They will say, no, all we're trying to do is shore up the vote, even though we agree there has been no widespread voter fraud.

How do you begin tackling an issue like this where a you're running so you want to make it better for yourself slash fair for everybody. But how do you how do you how do you find that balance of saying to people, listen, I'm trying to do this for everybody, and I know that I hope I will benefit. But you get what I'm saying. That's that there's that paradox of of of the messaging that you're trying to get out. I reject the paradox voting. The process of voting is nonpartisan.

Everyone should have access to the ability to vote. It should be easy to vote, it should be accessible. There should be a freedom to vote. Any impediment to that is wrong. That's full stop. I don't care who you vote for when I'm focusing on the voting system. My focus should never be on who you cast your ballot for voting itself. The process is nonpartisan. Now, when you get in there, I'm going to do everything in my

power to convince you I'm the person to pick. But the fight for the right to vote is something that should cut across every demographic, every ideology, every community. We are a stronger nation when we allow people to participate. And if we've ever doubted that the war that Putin is waging against Ukraine, President Zelinsky said it I'm gonna paraphrase them, and probably poorly. So this isn't a war

in Ukraine. Is a war on democracy in Ukraine. When we allow democracy to be overtaken by those who want to choose who can be heard, and those choices are not based on anything other than animous or inconvenience, then that is wrong. My mission is to make certain that everyone can cast the ballot, even people who don't like me, especially those folks. They should be able to go and cast their ballot. My job is to make sure that more people who like me show up. But that's campaigning,

that's not voting rights. Yeah. Before I let you go, I have to talk to you about the mosque. Yes, because I mean I was. I was on social media and then I see the picture of the mask. Then the picture gets deleted. This is what I found interesting, and maybe you'll correct me wrong. It's like it feels like with politicians, you have a team around you. Everyone's trying to figure out how to solve a crisis or

fix a problem. People say ridiculous things like God said it was like I hold my breath when I take the picture I and and it creates this weird um uh. It creates a situation where people feel like leaders on following the rules, or people you know are punished differently from leaders, etcetera, etcetera. Why did you say, yeah, I messed up and and that's that and going forward, do you think you'd be able to maintain that without at the same time letting your enemies use that as your

you know, like, don't vote for Stacey Abrams. She messes up my responsibility in that instance, if I created any appearance that I did not take children's lives seriously, that's a mistake. But your job fundamentally is to acknowledge when you make a mistake and try to make it right. We have this this narrative that we have invincible leaders. That's just not true. What we have our humans who want to do a job, and we have to hold

them accountable for the job they do. But we have to have grace when they make mistakes and trust that their intentions were right. But you can't trust someone's intentions if they never tell you what they were saying I'm sorry, Saying I made a mistake is about being honest about your intention. I intended to do something, I did not quite do it, So let me tell you about the gap, and let me tell you how I'm gonna make it better the next time. I need to remember that for

the next time I mess up. I'm a law of practice. I wrote a book about it. Yeah, I'm just I'm just gonna pivot. That's what I'm gonna do. All I think of when I read it as Level Up. It's the first book I can dance to when I just read the type Level Up Up, Level Up. Stay Abrams, thank you for taking the time. Thank you for joining us on the show. Thank you for having me.
