Oprah And VP Harris Bring Heart to the Campaign

It is the Carell Cast and I am Carel. We will be in the studio in just a quick second. But we are talking today about I saw a headline that said, Kamala's Nevada problem. Everything is just so expensive, and of course that's a problem across the globe, and this morning this played right into it. On the way home from the park this morning, I decided I wanted

some Belvida Tea biscuits. They're strangely and accidentally vegan, and so I stopped at Albertson's and I said, oh yeah, and I need a pineapple and an orange and some strawberries, and so that's exactly what I got here. You go there, you go right there, right there. How much do you think the Belvida orange pineapple and strawberries cost. How much do you think total for the cost? I will tell you in just a moment. I want you to guess, so I'll tell you in just a second. But it

is this very thing. I even commented when I got checked out. I said, this alone, this alone, this orange was almost as much as anything else that you see there. How much do you think total for all of that? I will tell you just a second, Right, miss Anne, she found a ball at the park and she's ready to go. She wants it bad, all right, and drum roll please. I forgot to do it yesterday, but I'm here to do it today. I'm gonna do it today, baby.

So the grand total for those items, the pineapple, the strawberry, the orange, and the belvida was fifteen dollars and forty three cents. The orange was three dollars alone. The strawberries were five alas. The belveda was four ninety nine. And that's everything. That's it. That's all. That's all you get for fifteen dollars and thirty or forty three cents. Fifteen

forty three that's how much it was. Not many of not many of you at the chatroom at YouTube dot com, forward slash really crill or Patreon dot com ford lash really cREL Not many got that close. I will find the closest and I will send them this book Where to go. It's over there, Todd Haynes, The Art of Being Todd Haynes. But yeah, ten dollars forty three cents. Wow, just wow. I mean we need a cigarette after that, honey. Because they they did a P. Diddy on us, they'd

be raping us. Did I say it? Did I say it? P? Diddy who's friends with the Obamas and everybody else, and here he is getting his freak on with everybody that ain't drugged or is drugged. And have you heard the rumor? Oh my god, I love this rumor, although it'd be totally on brand for her. But they say Kim Kardashian's in some of the videos and she drugging men and doing things to them. I hope she's drugging them with viagra, because I don't know what else you could give a man.

And you know, we got to be able to perform. But anyway, Yep, there's a rumor that Kardashian is on the tape. And I told my friend I said, it's on brand for her. It won't hurt her career. Let's remember that Kim Kardashian and the entire Kardashian empire is built on a sex tape. That's how she came to fame. That's how she came into the lexicon of the world. I first heard their name during the oj trial. Remember the DNA evidence from their relative. But oh yeah, from

the dad. But oh no, no, no, no, no no. So sex tape wouldn't really hurt Kim Kardashian. I know people think it might, but it wouldn't. It would not hurt Kim Kardashian. But allegedly she was over with PDDY getting her freak one, Get Your Freak One. Someone's gonna do a song get your Freak One. Well they already have ultrinitay, but you know someone's gonna do another song about getting you freak one. Oh Lord. So last night Kamala v. P. Harris, she sat with Oprah as an interviewer.

I have to say I am always so jealous of Oprah because Oprah proved again last night why she is the preeminent interviewer of our time. I mean, truly, she is. She proved. She connects with people, she remembers names. She makes you feel like and this has been Oprah's gold forever. Oprah makes you feel like she's got so much in common with you. You like she is, you know, your best friend, your neighbor, your you know what I mean. Oprah makes you feel like she's talking to only you

and that she gets it, she understands. That has been her goal forever. This woman is a billionaire, and yet she still appeals to welfare moms as they used to be called. I hate that, but you know what I mean, and I don't mean black people. What I mean is lower income people, people who are poor can relate to Oprah Winfrey and she acts like or truly can relate to them. And that's why last night I sat there going, God, damn it, you're good. I wish I could flight Oprah.

I wish I could hate on Oprah. I cannot because Oprah Winfrey is one of the best working I'm gonna move my microphone, sorry, kids. She is one of the best working journalist that there is interviewers. She's an incredible interviewer. And last night VP Harris and Hurst sat down and had a really heartfelt interview, and it got to me. Some of it got to me. Some of the numbers got to me. You know, three hundred and eighty three thousand children in America have had active school shooting drills.

Fifty thousand American children have actually been shot at. In other words, they didn't just have the drill. Something happened at their school and they had to run out, flee, some of them dying. And when the mother spoke, oh my god. First of all, they had a girl sitting there riddled with bullets. She was from the recent Appalachi school shooting. She was sitting there with bandages on. Honey. This girl head was like fresh from a school shooting.

And to hear the mother say, you do not understand what it is like to get the notice that there has been a school shooting at your child at school and not be able to reach your child. You don't know what that is like. And this mother she had to leave her car at a garage because something happened to it, and she walked the last two miles to

get to this school, probably in the snow uphill. But you know what I'm saying, And what was she going through with every single step and Oprah said it, and VP Harris said it, and everyone said it, that no one, no one in America should ever have to go through that and our children, which again, as a gay man, my whole life, I've been told that I must be quiet, sit down, not show love, not get married, because we must protect the children. And yet we're doing just the opposite.

We are making the children be open game every day of their lives. Every day that a kid goes the school, in their mind, they have the idea that they could be shot every day. What does a generation, how does that affect a generation? You know, the kids that were shot at Sandy Hook are able to vote in this election. Think about that, the kids that were shot at Sandy Hook are able to vote in this election. That's how

long we have tolerated school shootings and mass shootings. And I did a show this last week about how I just don't get America. I don't get it. Is the price of admission worth it? And I'm telling you right now, I don't understand how a nation of three hundred and twenty seven million people that claims to love their children puts up with this. It is the Republicans, and they are evil the Republicans are evil. We've got to stop acting like they're not evil. It is evil to allow

legislation that allows kids to get shot, period. I don't care if it's in the Constitution, I don't care where. It is. The fact that we are letting our children be slaughtered in so many numbers, that the number one killer of children is guns, that is that will forever be our biggest national shame. Outside of slavery. Are two giant national shames three slavery, four slavery, the treatment of women, the treatment of gays and minorities, and the fact that

we let all of our children be killed. That is a huge national shame. And last night we all felt that shame. Last night, Oprah and VP Harris, they completely and totally made us feel that shame. But more importantly, last night on this Zoom call, they made us feel they connected with our feelers. I was crying for part of it. The stories of women that have died because they couldn't get access to healthcare, a woman that was sitting there in the audience, a young girl who nearly

bled to death because she did This is America. This is what the GOP and Donald Trump wants then they should be nowhere near Washington, DC. And I don't care if half the country votes for them, I really don't those votes no longer. The GOP's votes should not count. They are a subversive party. They are negative to America. They are not Americans Republicans and I'm gonna say this loud. If you are a Republican and you tow their party line, you are not an American. Okay, So let's put an

end to this. Every vote counts when you have an fuck immigrants voting. I'm tired of people who are not Americans voting, and the GOP are not Americans. What makes you an American? You respect, defend and protect the Constitution of the United States and the people that that document serves. That's what Americans are. That's who we are. We protect and defend our constitution. The GOP does not. They spit on it. They trounce on it every day. I am done with the GOP. Last night made me realize they

are not American. They're not an American party. They're a Russian party. The GOP is a fully owned subsidiary of Russia. Every member and every member of MAGA is not an American They're a Russian. They are subversives. They listen to false information. They believe propaganda from Vladimir Putin's mouth or the people that are under Vladimir Putin. They will align themselves with a dictator like Donald Trump. They're not Americans.

Americans do not believe in dictators. Americans do not support dictators. Americans do not blindly follow dictators who don't have a clue about the constitution. Those are not Americans. So let's stop calling the GOP Americans. They're not They're not. They're un American, and they are causing the death of our children. They're causing the death of our women. They are causing death of trans people, gay people, black people, brown people,

yellow people. They are causing the deaths of actual Americans who believe in diversity, who believe in giving everyone a chance, who believe in pulling people up from the depths. They are causing the deaths of those people. They are an enemy of the state. The GOP is not only not American, it is an enemy of the United States of America. And I wish Kamala. I wish that Kamala said with a like a comma. I have been mispronouncing her name,

and I apologize. It is Kamala, which is why I'm gonna just call her VP Harris, because you know what, I don't mispronounce her name, and it gives her the VP credit that she deserves because she is the vice president. She is Madame Vice President, and she deserves all of us to remind ourselves that she is the vice president of these United States. She's not O Kamala, our neighbor next door who likes to cook Indian food. She is

the Vice President of the United States of America. And whether Trump respects that, or whether Maga respects that, or whether whoever respects that, I, as a true American, respect her and that office, and I respect her enough to apologize openly for mispronouncing her name. Thank you THEA for telling me. I get so caught up in the show. Sometimes I just I don't even hear myself. And it was brought to my attention by one of my dearest

friends yesterday that I mispronounced her name. I don't ever want to do that, because Trump does it on purpose, and I don't ever want to be in that same category. It's comma law. And sometimes I get going and my brain just thinks Kamala. It's not Kamala's Kamala. And if I can't remember that, then VP Harris works the same for you. If you can't get her name right, call her VP Harris. That's what she is, all right. Ooh,

I'm all sweaty, My god. I got all into that because I hate people who are not Americans, meaning they live here and they claim to be Americans, but they're not. They don't stand for the Constitution, they don't stand for diversity, equity, inclusion, equal rights. They just stand for their America. Well, their America is not America, and they're not Americans. The GOP, the members of it, are not Americans. They're closer to being Russian than they are any other kind. I'll set it,

I'll stand by it. Fifteen dollars and forty three cents. I'm grocery. Are happy now taken? Meet writing in the comments how mad you were?

Oh, different strokes for different folks and so on and so on and Scooby dooby dooby. All right, we are back. Someone in

the chatroom just said, Carell, can you not sing? It gives me a headache? And I said, can you please go away? And that's why I thought of different strokes, you know what? So he doesn't like my singing. Go away, Go away. I'm a great singer. I have a fabulous voice. And if you don't like it, pick a finger. Okay, go somewhere else, Go listen to another show. Because I'm done. I'm over sixty now. I am done caring about what others think of me. I'm done doubting my own talent.

I just wrote an incredible song that an incredible singer is singing that is being considered by the Vice President of the United States. We now have the word that it is in her inner circle, and even if she doesn't pick it up, it is still an incredible song with a positive message that I wrote. And there's ten other songs out there that I've sung that are fabulous, wonderful songs. If you don't like them, or you don't

like them on the show, I burst into this. I have been bursting into song on my talk show since KFI literally since David Hall used to always come in and say, are you gonna sing today? I said, I don't know why. He goes, oh, I'm just checking, you know. Kgo used to say you sing a lot. I go, yeah, I do, and they're like, we're not We're not mad. At it. We're just you're the only host on the station that actually sings on his show. I love music. I would rather make music every day than do a

talk show. If I could make money writing and singing music every day, I would, I wouldn't do a talk show. I love music. I love music. And you know as it's watching the BBC of course, and to Day in Europe is national playlist to Day And let me tell you why they're doing this. People with Alzheimer's or traumatic brain injuries often respond to music more than they do verbal communication. In fact, some people with Alzheimer's and other diseases of the brain, they can't remember crap, but they

can still sing. And if you sing something to them, they understand it, they get it. There is a part of the brain that music still breaks through even through Alzheimer's, and I just find that so remarkable that music can actually help people with Alzheimer's remember things. That Tony Bennett, until the day he died, could go out and sing all of his songs, go backstage and barely remember his wife, but when he was on stage he could remember the lyrics to every one of his songs. How powerful is

music on our brain if it has that effect. We know that animals, if you serenade them, they love it. Elephants, cows, all creatures. Now we just found out today that octopus are in fact, well I knew all along. We have declared octopuses sentient beings, which means they're just like humans. They feel pain, they respond to pain, they feel emotions, they know joy, they know happiness, they know love, they know if they're gonna die or not. Octopuses are sentient

beings and you eat them, that's just sad. And they're hugely intelligent. And guess what. They also like music. In fact, all sentient creatures like music, and many make it. So come at me with don't sing, and I'll do a whole show of s you know, because music is the most it's been the most important thing in my life. I have to I don't want to get emotional. I

remember when they called and said your grandmother's dead. I was walking through the desert in Apple Valley and Ain't no Mountain high enough was playing on my AM portable radio. I was listening to probably Cage Jay or Kiss Kiss Am in Los Angeles, and all I remember is is walking through the desert with tears in my eyes because a grandmother I barely knew had just passed away and ain't no mountain high enough was playing. I can tell you what songs were playing for almost every important event

of my life. When Andrew died, Anastasia had just released an album, and there's a song on there called how Come the World won't Stop Spinning Now that You're gone for a decade. I couldn't hear it. My therapist said, when you can hear that song and not cry, you know you've made progress. I can hear it now and not end up a you know, sobbing. So it is National playlist Day in Europe, and I think we should all go make a playlist, and we should put We're not going back on it, but we should make a

playlist of our favorite song. You know, I think so many of us we get caught up in podcasting, and we get so caught up in the news of the day and Trump and VP Harris and the economy and climate change and all this, that we forget some of the basic things that we enjoy about being human and music. You know, I am a team leader. October first, Grammy is sending out advocates to meet with legislators about important

issues in the music industry. I am the Las Vegas team leader, so I will be leading a team of musicians to go meet with our representatives here about key issues for music, mainly AI and other issues. I can't tell you how honored, how flattered, and how committed I am to represent Grammy and representing the people. I'm also on the Grammy Advocacy Group panel and we meet four times a year. Phil Spector, incredible producer, is on this panel.

People that I never thought I dreamed of meeting are on this panel, and there I am sitting with them in the same room, talking about the same issues. It boggles my mind that I'm in that company, and I am so grateful to be in that company because music is the most important thing in most of our or should be in all of our lives. When it comes to entertainment, before movies, before books, before music should be

the first. So I want you to make a playlist today in honor of National Playlist Day in Europe, I want you to make a playlist of your favorite songs ten or more. Make a playlist with ten or more of your favorite songs and listen to it. This weekend. Listen to it and sing it at the top of your friggin lungs. Don't care if you can hold a note. I don't care if you can't carry a note. If

we put it in a bucket, I don't care. Make a playlist of at least ten of your favorite songs and when they come on, belt them out, sing them to the world. It feels good. It releases endorphins. It makes you a better person. It activates parts of your brain that need to be activated. Sing, sing, and listen to music. Please. I want you to, in honor of National Playlist Day, of course. All right, So they're still talking about exploding pagers and they're still trying to find

out who did it. It's got a lot of world governments worried. It's got me worried. It is a new kind of warfare, and I don't know that I like it. You know, I don't like war anyway, But I really don't know that I like using technology to explode to kill people, you know, I just because it shows how the supply chain. You could just get anything into the

supply chain if you wanted to. And more importantly, I think it's giving terrorists some ideas, you know, we always it's like when we put on the side of a big bucket how to drown a baby, you know, the instructions on your dry cleaning bag or on the side of a five gallon bucket on how to drown a baby, because it shows you pictures of a baby drowning in the bucket and you're like, oh, that's how I would do it, you know. So sometimes I think we give away too much, and or we show people that don't

need to be shown things, ways to do things. I think we just showed terrorists that you can interrupt the supply chain of something, plant explosives and take out key people that you want to take out by just shipping them an item. I think it's scary what they've done. I do. I am very uneased about the whole exploding pages and exploding walkie talkies. I think it sets a dangerous precedent and I think it completely changes the rules of engagement. And that's sad, you know. I don't know.

Maybe all aren't worried about it, but I am. You get a laptop computer somehow, and it's like the tail and all no one died from the tail and all mishap, and yet we now have made it nearly impossible to get into prescription drugs or over the counter drugs because one batch of thailanol somewhere was contaminated, you know, So

suddenly we've taken all these precautions. So what precautions are electronics manufacturer is going to take from now on to make sure the devices they're giving us haven't been tampered with? What is Apple going to do? What are cell phone companies going to do to make sure that the device they give us has not been tampered with? What are

you going to do? You know? I mean, do we need x ramage Chang's now at our house to X ray everything that comes in our front you know, in our front door, just to see if there's any kind of incendiary device inside. Ridiculous? Lord b all right, it is the weekend, movies are out, you know. I gotta get you all to the to the Dave picked my left finger. Thank you, Dave, thank you, thank you for picking. Oh God, we belonged, Oh we belong Pat Benattar, Oh

my god, that's a great one for a playlist. Cherish with Madonna. Oh that's an interesting Madonna pick. Cherish, give me all night with Carly Simon? Oh yeah, fifteen dollars and forty three cents. That's how much the groceries were. Uh, Carly Simon, do you know most people don't realize that her last name is very famous? How many of you know who Carly Simon's father is? Raise your hand? How many of you know who her dad is? You're going Who's or Paul Simon? No? Have y'all ever heard of

a little book publisher named Simon and Schuster? Anybody anybody heard of the publisher Simon and Schuster? Because the Simon in Simon and Schuster is Carly Simon's dad. That's why Carly Simon grew up on Martha's vineyard and lived and hung out with you know, rock stars. She's been wealthy her entire life. Her father is the owner of Simon and Schuster or one of the partners. Can you imagine? God, what a lucky sperm club? You know? I was in the Lucky Sperm Club because my mom and dad were

absolutely fabulous individuals. So I won when it came to accepting and loving parents, which is priceless basically. But I have so many friends that are in the Lucky Sperm Club. My friend Jason Young, you know, his parents built a business, you know, empire of commercial properties worth millions of dollars. Then they both pass away and leave it to the Four Brothers. He's so wealthy he never has to work again, and he's only in his four Lucky Sperm Club Nepo Babies,

Lucky Sperm Club, Trust Fun Babies, Lucky Sperm Club. I'm in the Lucky Sperm Club because I had loving parents. But a lot of people they got really lucky when it came to the sperm Club. Because I got lucky, they got loving parents. Well, I don't know our rich parents as loving as my parents. I don't know. I've never had rich parents, so I don't know. But my parents were pretty darn loving. So would I have traded mansions and it would have been nice for a day

or two? All right, make your playlist now. I'm gonna hear we belong in my head all day long. We belong, We belong. You know. Pat Benatar is always over here at the Poems. I really want to go see her. I've seen her three times live recently with her gray hair. She's fabulous. Oh my god, she sounds exactly like Pat Anatar. She's Oh my God, she's so good live and all of her songs. Wuthering High This is my favorite. By the way, my favorite Pat Benatar song is Weathering Heights.

Write that down. I may use it for a trivia contest one day. Weathering Heights by Pat Benatar is my favorite Pat Benatar song. All Right, I am carell. You'll be who you want to be, so I don't hurt anybody. Have a happy Friday. Go watch the Oprah VP Harris together. If you didn't watch it. It has a lot of parts, a lot of souls and something. Donald Trump will never have. His passion, caring, dignant intols. You know, he is so out of their reason. He is so out of Paris.
