You're listening to Comedy Central, Wow, listening about It's the soul? Did you just you do? Did you Hate Me? Show? On Sara Silverman um Since this is my first night hosting, Like, yeah, I'm a little nervous, So I did that thing where you picture the audience naked, which is perfect because now I'm nervous and horny. Now some of you might not know who I am, so let me introduce myself in the most daily showy way possible, using a right wing
talking head pundit montage rolling. Sarah Silverman is a complete buffone and aggressively unfunny. He's a comedian. I'll find there's anything funny actually about her, A vulgar comic who was mostly famous for saying dirty words and a little girl boys. She's a clown in her daily life, an absolute fool. She is a jazzebel, diabolically dumb. She is a witch. She's not funny. She is a god hating board boy and like you hit here with a car, These writing
people really hate me. I mean, what am I gender neutral bathroom over here? What am I Starbucks cup that just says happy holidays over here? What am I a grown woman? With an opinion. Oh yeah, that's probably all right. There's a lot to talk about, so let's get right into it with headlines. Let's kick things off with the big Rihanna concert last night. She is so cool. She did it right in the middle of a football game. She didn't care, and she dropped some pretty exciting news overnight.
Rihanna making a surprise announcement the superstar revealing she's pregnant with her second child in front of a packed stadium during the Apple Music Super Bowl halftime show. Her rep confirming her growing family to ABC News after she wowed fans from a floating platform in the sky. That's right, Rihanna revealed she was pregnant by bringing along all the sperm that didn't make it, I mean, and of course, of course the one that did m was it was
inside her. Seriously, did you see that? Pregnant? Women? Did you see it? Rihanna just did a Super Bowl halftime show. Will pregnant? And you want my seat on the subway? Not anymore too, No way, the bar has been rais But you know, I mean, thank you. But you know what, guys, Rihanna isn't the only one who has a surprise announcement. I just want everyone here to know that I have diarrhea.
Some people were surprised that Rihanna didn't bring out Kanye West during all of the lights, but when you think about it, it makes sense because there wasn't enough space for her dancers to form a swastika. I can say that because I'm a Nazi. It was it was really cool, and I thought it was really cool that Rihanna did the show way up on those platforms. But it was a little bit risky because if you've been following the news at all, this is not the time to be
in the sky. This weekend, the U S shot down three flying objects over North American airspace, bringing the total to four and just over week. Questions mounting after more unidentified objects discovered over US and Canadian airspace. A third mystery object in just three days shot down by a
US fighter jet over Lake Huron Sunday afternoon. Three incidents in less than a week after that Chinese spy balloon was shot down off the Carolina coast, but a senior US official saying these three are different from that spine balloon. The commander of NORAD said the last three objects were similar in size and shape, and he declined to categorize them as balloons, saying they were unable to determine how they stay aloft. Now, when asked about the possibility of
alien activity, he would not rule anything out. You're not rolling out aliens. I love how we're not ruling anything out, but we're shooting everything down. Is it a kite as it aliens? Is that the old man from up who cares? We'll figure it out when we sift through the wreckage. Now. The official explanation is that after the Chinese balloon last week, the government adjusted the radars to make them more sensitive, and once they did that, they realized there's all kinds
of ship flying up all the time everywhere. It's like, you know when you start paying attention to what ingredients are in your food and realize, like everything has guar gum in it, and what's war gum gum? We don't know what it is, but we're eating it. Baby. Audience loves returned to Camela too, and you might be asking, where is space force in all of this? Isn't dealing with UFOs like their say, But apparently it's actually more complicate,
hated than that. Because some of this stuff they're finding is too low in the atmosphere for space forces jurisdiction. They're in this like um, this weird in between zone between the sky and space. It's like it's like the Earth's taint. Really, what we need is a taint force protect this this in between area. This this no man's land. It's a very sensitive zone. It can get a little hairy at times. Working there can stink, sure, but taint
force will be there when the ship goes down. Moving on to a crazy story, the makers of M and M's were find fourteen thousand dollars after two workers fell into a vat of chocolate. So everyone be on the lookout for the newest Eminem's flavor, human flesh. And the good news is when those guys fell in, they found the bones of Augustus. Get some nice closure for the Glupe family. The truth is that a lot of jobs are dangerous, and that's why one new idea going around
in some states is particularly odd. Some state legislatures, looking to fill a need in the labor market, are considering child workers as a solution. Lawmakers in Iowa and Minnesota introduced bills last month to loosen labor regulations around age and workplace safety. Minnesota's bill would allow sixteen and seventeen year olds to work construction jobs, and the Iowa measure aims to allow fourteen and fifteen year olds to work
certain positions in the mining, meatpacking, and logging industries. The Iowa proposal would also shield businesses from civil liability if the youth worker gets sick, injured, or killed on the job. We're doing great, everybody. They're gonna let fourteen year olds work in mining, logging, and meat packing. Those are like the three most dangerous jobs. What they didn't have any openings in the Ukrainian army. You know they'll be able
to fill these positions. To all it would take for teenagers to work in a mine is like a viral TikTok called the black Lung challenge. And these lawmakers, they know it's dangerous because they're shielding the companies if the kids get killed on the job. On the right side, they will have Oompa loompa's come out every time kid dies. Little little Wonka heavy today. And I'm sure this will surprise you, but the lawmakers sponsoring these bills call themselves
pro life of course they are. If women aren't forced to have babies, who gonna pack this goddamn meat. For more on this story, we turned to Roy Wood Jr. Roy, how can these people possibly allow this? It's outrageous, Sarah. Child labor has almost no place in this country. Almost You gotta have some child labor, got some child You're not expensive, it is to raise a kid. You gotta buy clothes, You gotta feed him two or three times a day. You gotta go to the doctor, make sure
all their balls ain't jacked up. Ben, you gotta take them to the dentist. You get to teach your teeth ain't nothing but mouthbones. Why could doctors gotta pay for childcare? Assuming you can find childcare. Because your last babysitter be scared of cold, she moved back to Canada. Now you gotta pay for after schoolcare, then after schoolcare, then the summer camp. Because the school years only nine months of the year, but the one years all year. Where does
it stop? These kids have got to pay their own weight. Sure, but like small things like working at McDonald's or babysitting or mowing lawns, what's the difference between mowing the lawn and chainsaw in a red wood. It's all y'all. Bo a tree ain't number tall grass. That's all right. These are the world's most dangerous jobs. You really want children doing them? Latter wasn't want to grow up faster. We're just letting them. Why can't I have a driver's license? Said? Okay, okay,
you never driver's license for a funklift drive. Get the palette the pallette round. Okay, call me naive, but Shilton isn't a time for work. It's a time for children to learn and grow and and explore the world in their wonderment. And yeah, I agree with that until he's a teenager. Teenagers are not exploring the world in wonderment. They throwing eggs at my house. He's punks need to be put to work. They got too much time on their hands. You're ruining them my paint, Kevin, I'll whoop
your ass. Punks like Kevin. Put them, put them on the factory line. Let him de bone a hundred chickens an hour, you bitch. Let's see my fingers hurt. Yeah, that's hard work. Roy. Just because you're mad at your neighbor's kid doesn't mean they deserve dangerous work conditions. They could lose fingers, Sarah, how many fingers you really need? How thin these the stars right here? You think you need these things? You need this one in case you're getting married. But you know what was the last time
you use your peaky? The peaky just freeloading on all the rest of the thing is it's the apple baby at her hand. These kids is young enough. These things will grow back. They got time. I'm I'm sorry, but there is no place in our society for child labor. It is a scourge of humanity that we have luckily moved past, and it brings nothing positive to the world. Let me ask you a question. You got an I phone, Um I do. Who do you think makes it? I mean Apple, Sarah, Chinese kids. So hand over your I
phone unless you want to be a hypocrite. I'm going to choose hypocrite. That's what I thought. That's what I thought. Now, if you'll excuse me, I'm gonna go sign up my neighbor's kid for the coal mines. Just a pretty very good pact even I'm coming making. Okay, I guess the most important moment can we go? You know this past weekend was the International Day of Women and Girls in Science. If you haven't heard about it, it's because you're sexist.
It's an important day to honor the women who have made contributions to humanity's understanding of science, which is why I wanted to take this moment to honor one woman whose life hasn't received the recognition it deserves. When you ask people about the greatest female scientists of the twentieth century, they'll give you the same names, Very Curry, Jane Goodall, Octavia Spencer, but they always leave out the most important person. Dr Raquel Incidia, the world's first female mad scientist in
the field of evil. Doctor Insidia was a relentless pioneer. She put Genghis Khan's brain into a chimp. She made Kentucky disappear, all of it for three years. No Kentucky. She put a man on the moon as punishment. His body is still open. Unfortunately, in the nineteen fifties, the mad sciences were dominated by men, so doctor Insidia faced a lot of sexism. One time, she shrunk the Prime Minister of Latvia and trapped him in a jar. They gave her a two million dollar ransom. The next week,
a male mad scientist kidnaps the same prime minister. They give him four million dollars and a guest spawn. It's old, same prime minister, same jar. You tell me how that's not sexism. She was always at a disadvantage. It's hard to build a laboratory in a volcano when you're not allowed to open your own credit card. The bank was always saying, where's mr. Doctor Insidia. My debut as a matte scientist was when I terrorized Boston with a radioactive megaphone.
What I didn't tell anyone was that the megaphone was doctor Insidia's idea. I told her it was a stupid idea, and then I stole it. I feel bad about the whole thing, but it launched my career, even hand me on that sell of her. Doctor Insidia assembled body parts into an unholy monster. The first thing it did when it came to life was asked her to get it
a cup of coffee. Of course, everything got worse after just she had her baby well clothed her baby, Doctor Insidia was asked to leave the Evil Alliance headquarters because they were uncomfortable with her breastfeeding. Look in our defense breast grading is gross. If Doctor Insidia had lived long enough, I think she would have become a household name. Unfortunately, she died young. Some people think her heart gave out from all the sexism. Others think it was from the
heart stopping race she accidentally fired of herself. Me. I think it was a little bit of both. She was truly a revolutionary, but schools refused to teach about her work. Why not? Why not? I suppose because of all of her crimes. But it's all right. Her legacy lives on. She's the one who taught me about girl power. Literally, you can power steam engine with girls. Ye see Doctor in City. All right, stay tuned because when we come back, the hilarious Liz Win said, we'll be joining me on
the show Daily Show. My guest tonight is the co creator of The Daily Show and the founder of Abortion Access Front, which uses humor to destigmatize abortion and expose those fighting against reproductive rights. Please welcome, liz Win said, Wow, you guys spruced up the place since last time out here. I did doing pretty good. I mean it's come along.
I mean I would say so if you watch some of the old episodes, you could see light switches, and you really created this whole idea of already need you know, I mean, did you know how groundbreaking that would be at the time, Well, I knew that the media was consistently disappointing, so it seemed like low hanging fruit, especially when the show caught on and instead of the media being like, you know, maybe we should really be really
investigating stories, they were like funny graphics. That's what the public they stole the wrong the paint. So you founded abortion access fright dide do you see this as a kind of a natural evolution from the Daily Show for you, Well, because they explain what it is, but they deal with
abortion with humor. Yeah, I mean the truth is, whether it was this show, whether it was air, American radio, wherever I went, it's like knowing that you can expose hypocrisy with humor and knowing that done well, you can make change. It kind of was at natural illution because no one was talking about abortion. People siloed it. They weren't talking about it, and so the reason I created
it was because I wanted to speak truth to power. Also, if everybody felt freaked out when Rob Wade fell, like what do I did all you feel like what do I do? I wanted to give people an answer to that question. So with Abortion Access we decided what we want to do is create programs that folks can jump into. Will meet where you are if you have ten minutes an hour to give. We have fun things in the streets. We can help you legislatively you don't. We have this
great program called Operations Save Abortion. It's pretty simple. It's a five part series. Get together your friends, do it and learn how you can actually do more than just march because that just feels like you're an anger fluffer
at that point, right, where's the really anger fluffer? So you know, I feel like people really want to get involved in so with us, it's like, I mean, we just watched the super Bowl a hundred million dollar ads by people who are funding anti abortion garbage, and we're having big sales to try to get people to get services. Right. I'm not gonna say you should donate, but you should don't. So you started Abortion Access Front also known as Abortion a F. Yes. Um, we are very cool shirts if
you want to really go in hard. So you you founded that in Yeah, what did Liz winstead In think Abortion Rights would be in well, I mean, Liz Wins we kind of lightly started this and you were there in like because I knew it was gonna get worse, you know, I mean, these alarmed forever because it was happening in the States and nobody seemed to understand state politics. Nobody understood that. Like the reason Roevie Wade fell is because an abortion case in Mississippi made it to the
Supreme Court. Now, if you don't think Mississippi should be deciding how you live your reproductive life, then you've had to get your ship together and start paying attention. And so that for me, it was always that and I mean I will say this and I we have to have it a but you know when ship started happening in Georgia, in Hollywood, well meaning coastal elites were I'm pulling my production from Georgia. I'm not going to play
in Georgia. And you brought three abortion providers reproductive justice activists, yeah, and from Georgia to Los Angeles to sit down with these people, and they said, please, don't take your productions away from from Atlanta, you know, please, this is what's giving people jobs and bringing influx of all this wonderful stuff for people that people shouldn't be punished. If you want to, you know, stick up for um, the people of Georgia. Then boycott the giant donors that are giving
these politicians money to make these laws. And I thought that was very people who are living in the places and center, the people who are most harmed all the time. And they'll give you the answers to help you be a better activists and make the world better. Yeah. Um, you know a lot of people are seeing their rights being stripped away and it's really scary. What can people do? I mean, I'm just gonna say, if you go to a front dot org, we can guide you locally and
nationally to where you need to be. We are connectors, were unifiers, and we're the people who are out there who really want you to do something. It will help you figure out what that something is. I will say I was in Atlanta two nights ago and I went to Starbucks and there was a woman working there who saw a pin on my backpack that said keep your laws off my body. And she said she was so moved by it and so angry to be in a place where it is not legal to make your own
decisions over your body. And the first thing I did was text Liz and say, well can I give her? What can I give? And she give me an email address, said give us to her and this woman will tell her where in her area she can become active and what she can do. So thank you so much for everything you do so much. And we're gonna say a quick brain, but will be right back after that, and I think we can't we go. Please consider supporting Power
to Decide. They give people the tools to decide if, when, and under what circumstances to get pregnant and have a child.
