Charlamagne Tha God debates the flaws in Stacey Abrams's campaign strategy, using rap lyrics as evidence in court and more with panelists Ian Lara, Tara Setmayer and Killer Mike.
You're listening to Comedy Central. Hey, Kanye West does not care about black people. And that's just one of the many reasons. I can only describe my mood this week is disappointed. Oh it's been a hell of a week. My first great disappointment comes from South African albino Elon Musk. First, he decided to give putin some head, no hands and and tell you Crane to just give up the land of Russia, as if Elon must would ever just give something up because folks demanded it. If that's the case, give me a billion dollars Elon, Okay, that's right. Then Elon flip flopped and said he wanted to buy Twitter again when he could just save his money and give me a billion dollars just because I wanted, all right. But the biggest disappointment is him ending the week by unveiling his newest invention, the Optimist robot. Yeah, that's who's gonna take all the jobs in the future, not migrants. Okay, but of course the robot already malfunctions, all right, or maybe he's working just line. I don't know. Kanye is the robot, by the way. Um. I was also disappointed that Billy Einner blames straight people as the reason his new gay romantic comedy Bros. Flopped at the box office. Did just see it? Okay? Um, all right, Billy, the blame should go to the people who take up about thirty of the alphabet Okay, L, G, B, T Q and A plus. Okay. That community has enough people to fill up thirty pride parades all around the country, but you can't fill up one AMC theater. All right. Inclusivity is fantastic. I wouldn't be here without it. But inclusivity can't be the sole focal point of a project's marketing. All right. You know what I care about a great storyline and great characters. All Right. You're not just gonna come get me to go to the theater because the movie is full of never before seeing representation, all right, Billy, you noticed, because you'll be in the streets. I'm gonna spend my money on a movie based on people telling me it's good, not just because it's gay. So you know, sorry, Billy, it's not great. People's fault that y'all couldn't put bottoms in the seats are our tops for that matter? Okay? And since me on the subject of inclusion are lack thereof. Let's talk Caitlyn Jenner. Okay, when the Vermont High School girls volleyball team was banned from their own locker room over a dispute with a transgender player, Caitlyn said that girls shouldn't have to share locker rooms with trans athletes. I happen to agree with Caitlin. It's simple for me. It's a penis and a high school girls locker room. If the girls are uncomfortable, removed the penis. And I'm not even gonna make a gender reassignment joke right there, even though I couldn't, because it's easy, all right. I have sympathy for transgender kids, but I'm a father of a high school girl, and high school girls are uncomfortable enough in locker rooms already, so let's not add to this scress. Okay, all right, And from my final disappointment of the week, Tom Brady and just Sell have hired divorce attorneys, which means two things. One, Tom Brady's real true love is foot All and too, Pete Davidson just updated his tender profile. Okay, We've got a lot more things to talk about, like rap lyrics being used to court Stacy averson herschel Walker Queen Nyla. Let's talk the show. Dammit. That's right. It has been a hell of a week and here to talk about it is the best dress panel in late night. He's a comedian who stand up special Growing Shame is now screaming on YouTube and his special romantic Comedy debuts on HBO Max November eleven. Ian LRAs Hell, Right, heverybody. She is an ABC News contributor and host of The Lincoln Project screaming show to breakdown taras set meyers Hell. And he's a rapper and activists. Actually one of my top five favorite rappers of all time. He's hailing from the land of a t L. Georgia, not other to my good brother killing my just now, let's get into it. Topic one ballot bullshit. Stacy Abrams was the Democrats saving grace in when she mobilized enough voters to flip Georgia blue and they picked up two Senate seats. But she's having a rough week. A federal court rejected her challenge of the state's unfair voting laws and a new poll by eleven Alive and Georgia says Brian Kemp is leading her fort and her second run for governor in Georgia. Meanwhile, world renowned or at all Hershaw Walker slipped in the polls, but it's still expected to win his Senate seat, even after news broke that he pressured a girlfriend and getting the bullstion while running on the family values platform. Now, Mike, you are Georgia. You are ye, And Stacy is obviously brilliant and she's losing her shoe. Some people would say it's not brilliant, he's winning. What does that say about the people of Georgia. You don't have to be brilliant to win an office in America. It's been like that. It's tric You do have to be cunning. And herschel may be very cunning in a Charles White light way, maye Charleston White maybe maybe giving y'all the drunken style. But I say that the truest problem lies in um testling figure and I have to give her credit for this. Yeah, push the line, you guys, follow her and make sure you go to some of her UM conferences on how to organize on a local level. She just did three D people in Atlanta. It was amazing, but She says that it's not about the other person, it's about what hasn't your party done. And I think the Democratic Party has not done a very good job at making delivering promises and even just holding true on historically what we thought they would. And I think they can do a better job of it. As an understated yeah, and and and and I am being a little more genteel because I'm not trying to I'm not trying to throw a race one way or the other. But I'm just saying, in a state like Georgia, you have to meet people where they are for real. And and what I mean is, I'm from Atlanta in fifteen minut outside Atlanta's Georgia. Georgia's black, thirty five cent African American, which means the other you know, the rest of people not black, but they are. They are poor, working in middle class. And if you're gonna appeal to those people, you know you can appeal to. We don't want hospital shutting down, absolutely, we want teachers to get raised, absolutely. But the Democratic Party in the last two weeks they've done um vote versus fucking and and it had two incredible entertainers with Saucy Santana and Trina. But that ain't gonna get black folks out to the polls that and in fact, it feels condescending, it feels mocking, and it feels like slave cartoons. I mean, that's not to this those artists. That's to say, in the way that it is presented, the way that people take it, it doesn't feel right. The other thing is, well, they said Joe Biden just announced before we walked out here that they're going to do that they're gonna allow people with marijuana convictions to come home from the Feds. Well, most of and which we've been calling for, but most of the most of the convictions are state convictions. And when I've talked to say Stacy myself and said Ms Abrams, what are you gonna do about legalized marijuana? You can deep from lives, just like the in Colorado. Her fear factor fear tax was always well, the fans are gonna come. Well, you should be talking to the president saying let's take it off the schedule one list now, Nigga, so we can win these states. And and if you're in, if you if you don't have the goal to do that, can you have the goal to be governor. So we need someone that's gonna be tough and gonna be strictly for Georgia. And marijuana makes money, so beyond letting people loose, they should be the first that are allowed into it. And if I was running, if I was in her campaign, when one day I say, I say, I say, I give her. I give her this advice because I've seen her under the Gold Dome, I've seen her out campaign, and I say, whatever white person you got running your black outreach, fire them and hire hire tesling figure out. Hire her the day, because what she's gonna do is she's gonna say to you as governors, what you can be doing as governor of Georgia is saying, hey, not only are we gonna be criminalized marijuana, we're gonna make you a thirty five percent of all licenses in African America. We're gonna make sure we're gonna give land. Grant said, We're gonna use fat money that's coming in here to make sure that black farmers can be growing cannabis so that it can be sold. And you wouldn't make it gratuitously obvious that you were gonna write some wrong So that's what I tell you. The problem though he is the guy she's running against. It's running an effective campaign, and at Brian Camper is running effective campaign because this week what Mr Kemp did was he went to an all black boys school that's ran by a conservative black man down in Albany, Georgia, young black man. He didn't Dr Mario. He didn't go around preaching for a lot of years. That's so this is Dr mar He produced the school and then he started I got to school. I'm not mad he got. In fact, you know what I'm seeing you a grand I loved. I'm glad he just got to school. I'm sending him for this guy got a charter school with all black boys. So guests who the picture goes up with him yesterday he has Governor Kemp with the boys yesterday. That picture goes up. Shelley Winters, who's an incredible black man, does a lot in Atlanta, happens to be a conservative, has a great radio show. He's a great radio show host. But he goes into public and out in streets every day. He got a bunch of conservative black men again, other kept went with them. Then he went over to a Democratic Clay with Ryan Cameron, one of the most popular radio hosts about Georgia staunch Democrat and then press the Democrats in that room. I would advise if I was in Miss camps camp, you need to go everywhere he just went, and Miss Abrams, you need to go everywhere Brian Kemp just went. Because what Brian Kimp did was having an effective week with black people and I would love to see her do that. But if she doesn't, that ain't our phone. Tara, what do you what do you think like Herschel's Hill is the g A and what is Miss Abrams possibly doing wrong? Well, Um, when you said that whatever white guys, she has a white person running her black outreach, I thought you were talking about a Republican campaign. That's usually what happens with Republicans, but this time, but they learned, right, They've learned because we've seen how you know, Republicans are gaining ground in the black community and in Georgia. I was shocked at those numbers. Stacy Abrams has lost eight percent in black men black men support since the last time she ran. She was he only at seventy black voters overall, and it speaks to what you say, all politics are local, and that is an axiom in politics that if you understand that, you're gonna win. And that's exactly what Brian Kemp is doing. And he's also opened up the door not only to appeal to people where the meeting them where they are, but because he stood up to Donald Trump, that has also given a permission structure to some Democrats to go, well, he's not that bad, so that she has an uphill battle here to you know, an uphill to climb hill to climb here on this. But um, it's all about turnout too. I mean, in the last ten years, what a million people have moved to Georgia. The demographics in Georgia have changed considerably, but in that million people, it's ninety percent minority, and yet she's only at sevent So, you know, I think it's gonna be. Yeah, it's fascinating. I think Georgie is gonna be a fascinating political science study on what happens when you start to veer away from meeting voters where they are and and concentrating on the on the issues that matt them right then, as opposed to just kind of more national issues that it's all politics and local especials when you're when you're a governor. But the herschel Walker thing, I mean, I think Hersu was a good communicator. I think majority of people who in Georgia probably sound like him and can relate to him more than they can, you know, and I can. That's what they can say about Donald Trump. Yeah, that's my that's my question. I'm obviously not as intellectually fit as give him up. I already endorsed Dr Umar for office, so he's my guy. Well, we're in talks. I'm texting him. He's still deciding. But I like, from the outside looking in, I thought, if told us anything is to be counting. Like you said, you gotta say the craziest stuff. Stacy Abrams, Well, all I know, I'm from New York, but I know her to be respectful, noble, decent human being. What you're doing, you're wasting your time. She out here being a shanty. You need to be the city girls. That's what you know. If she came out tomorrow, it was like, we're gonna take these white men, We're gonna take all that money, give them pregnant, kick him out the house. People be like yo, Well, instead you have herschel Walker doing that running around, you know, crazy stuff. Listen. I just think that it scares me to death that herschel Walker is even within striking distance of this. You know, you have the philanderer versus a preacher, and you you know, herschel Walker people think different. She's not running against her sho trying against I'm talking about herschel Walker against Senate versus governor. And you know, the Senate is incredibly important because you know, the Senate determines Supreme Court justices. They you know, they vote on on federal judge ships, which are lifetime appointments, and the Senate fifty fifty. Now, so if you if Georgia flipped the Senate last time, So this is like an incredibly important race. And the fact that someone like herschel Walker, who is a liar, who is a cheater, who a philanderer and he's out here makes no sense. Can't put a full sentences. I'm like, you know what we need to We need to expect better of our politicians, you know, I mean, we need to demand better the people that we vote for. And herschel Walker is a disgrace. And I think the people of Georgia really need to stop and think about is this really who we want to represent us? And I think also he's a token. Republicans put up the black guy against the black eye senator and thought, a hot we've got one, and if we vote for him, we're not racist. See we voted for that black guy. Meanwhile, the candidate is terrible and an embarrassment. He shouldn't be anywhere near anybody's Senate office. He needs to be getting mental health therapy and therapy for his CTE and taking care of his kids. Mike, you know you got a lot of flak when you met with Brian Kimp with some great things of coming in. All right, both of them is prit to white Jesus. I just say that, and I just say that because much of the stuff that's been used in aligne Walker to black man has been used to align war knock. He stayed a little local, but you know, his ex wife said some very slanderous things about him, and it's just I don't like for black people to go for that. So when we're talking about moral objectivity, most politicians ain't ship and their hords for months, and that's just what it is. So but the question is prostitute is working my strip for me? So when you're don't vote, think about that in terms of pimping, because I don't trust nobody that pray to white Jesus. I don't care who, what, what people are you gonna vote for whole man, I'm gonna hold my vote, but I'm gonna give you this. We were all I like, I like this, and in matters of what I'm voting for, not cool what I'm voting for. I saw a Republican governor, I've seen a Democratic candidate. I've seen both of them have opportunity to speak directly in my community. And I would encourage you guys to research and see who's done it if you're from Georgia, if you're not. But one thing that comes has come out of that meeting with Brian Kemp and Um I call a lot of flat for them. But I'm gonna tell people, I don't care how much flag you get, if you pay your taxes, demand to see him. I don't care trust a council person, your awards person, whoever win. And the next day we got to talk. I got to see you, man, because you're the plug to everything that comes into my community. So when I want to talk about federal funding that could have saved the hospital in Georgia, I have to talk to Governor Kemp and say, why didn't you take that Obama money? Because we need a hospital, right, I need that. When I want to talk about black men and only rifles, ship ship Stacy Adams win Man, we saw a boy get chased out and shot by shotgun. Why would you want to limit my Second Amendment rights? So no matter who's governor, I'm gonna talk to him. And the way she says she didn't say that. She didn't say that. What I like under the current regime is there's a woman named miss Ali. I met ms Ali, Nigerian woman came here and made a life for herself. She worked in the juvenile court system. Brad Boyd was a judge U mentor of mind. She started the Georgia Public Defense Foundation because too many people were getting out of jail. Mayor want to convict. You gonna get a chance getut of jail. You know, you get out of jail with Georgia with twenty five dollars in the sat. The closure you came in with Kemp allowed her to put this foundation together and prototype it out of a judge named Superior Court Judge Asha Jackson, who started a program. And when she wouldn't send you to jail, she'd allow you a year to work on your life, turn your life around so you never see prison time. That Democratic judge put down that prototype. That Democratic woman picked up and laid that called me out of the North and no, I don't smoking the joint. She said, Hey, I want you to chair something. Put me as a chair of this organization. This organization is radically changing the way people get out of jail. Had you told me the last white Republican to do that was named Abraham Lincoln. He was free and niggas. So what What what I say is look for the quality of work that they're giving your community, not the personality. We need. Policy, We don't need any more political personality. It's not the Dallas Cowboys versus the Washington football team. I don't care which team wins. I care that I do. I'm a Cowboy fan. But no, I agree. I like what you said though. It's not about the who is the what, it's the one don't go anywhere. My panel is sticking around more hell of a week. In just a minute, welcome back to hell of a week. I'm here with a panel that's hot, sticking in your average. We got Ian Laura Taras set Meyer and killing Mike Time to keep the conversation's going topic to Now, let's talk to jail house rap. It's been a big week for white men doing right by black people. Earlier today President Biden, as we announced earlier that he's gonna pardon all federal offenses of simple marijuana possession. In California, Governor Gavin Newsom signed a new bill limiting the use of rap lyrics in court to convict rappers of crime. Here and it's gotta be a dream come true for you, right because you can finally rap about you know, smoking weed. And I go to jail for listen, I'm pro I want to hear about your crimes and music. I used to have that same mentality, and I feel like I called the whole generation to be doing this stupid They know, Listen, rap music is two black guys. What murdered documentaries is two white women. That's how we feel about it. That's how we feel about it. Okay, Okay, we don't condone it. It's appalling, But when you hear you're like, yo, how many people we kill? It's crazy. I think every rapper should just start a song the same way they start lawing order, Like they should just be a disclaimer, like the following bars are completely fictional, not based on true characters. Resemblance story reality is completely coincidence. That would be great, tell me who you robbed at the gas station. But the problem with hip hop historically is that we've shamed people for not being real. You know what I mean, Like, you have to keep it real, right. I don't like that, Like, like you shouldn't lie, Takashia, lie about it. We're still gonna bump it. I know that's Mike. You come from a generation where you have to be real, but now they're real, and there's tw many people get also from a generation where we understood we were watching a representation of realness. We knew Scarface was the rapper the stories in part came from from James. We knew that n w A was a representation of so you know, as kids, we weren't as dumb as like my kids. Yeah, but that's talk though, that's the different Textalk changes everything. That's a good point Mike, because I feel like in some of these cases, you know, uh, folks are actually committing crimes, right, and they get put under investigation, and then some of these folks are dumb enough to wrap in detail about the crimes they committed, and so then law enforcement officials used those lyrics as another piece of evidence. So I understand when like the Georgia d A. Fannie Willis says rap lyrics will continue to be used in coming new cases. So who's right in this matter? Is it Gavin or you know somebody like d A N G A. So I'm not gonna do a versus because I still live in Georgia. Want commit crime, you know, recoacting b n L A, smoking on without a card only in trouble. But it's just not a Finni versus Gav Gavin. Right, This is for me an issue of my constitutional rights. I have a constitutional right for freedom of speech and artistic expression, just like I got a constitutional right on the fire, have constitution right to travel out being interrupted by the law. So black people, let me say, as frustrating as it is, I saw in the eighties black people trade their constitutional rights for safety. It was the middle of the crack era, we allowed black boys to be stopped beating, stopped by police, frist stopping freestans. The college in New York, the Red Dogs with a drug unit, a landed. They kicked my ask a couple of times. We allowed it. We actually asked for it. And because of that, we have a thirty something your legacy of higher imprisoning rates, fatherless homes, because we moved from a place of fear. Now, if we allow our First Amendment rights, or rappers First Amendment rights to be taken, what's gonna happen when you put up a Facebook post about a centaer I wish he just died, and the next thing you know, you're being marched out of your your office space and handcuffs. There's a white woman named Nancy Brophy who wrote an article how to kill your husband. A few years later, she killed her husband. That white woman killed the ship out of that white man took that insurance money before she went to East Africa to buy her another husband. They stepped in and said we're gonna charge you with murder, but they can't use her article. They had to prove it another way. All I'm saying it's fair is fair black people, watch out what your advocate for, because the worst and first affected by anything that leans itself toward breaking your constitutional rights, it's going to affect you first. When they talked about constitutional rights around firearms, first person I said I'll get locked up was a dude with dreads in Florida. They locked this black ass up just as sure as that A R fifteen was in the pitch on his Facebook post. So what I'm gonna say to you all is, even though it's uncomfortable, even though you don't always like it, you got to stick and be a constitutionalist about that. Because Charlotte Magne will go to jail for some ship. Howard Stern never would have don't put that in the ad. But I don't want you to go to I don't want what about I agree everything you're saying about the constitution, But there are street laws to right. We've always advocated to not snitch. Yes, So what about these brothers who get on these recordist snitch on it? Well, I didn't get this not snitched laws from the streets. I got it from my mother, okay, And my mother said, there's three or y'all is you and your two sisters figured the ship out amongst yourself because you tell her. But Mike, your mama was adult. No, my mom did a sale drugs, got the look that I want to right a coke aine traffic. She should rub about that stops out to Denice. But before we knew, she was an active cocaine traffic and she told me and my sisters settling yourself and amongst yourselves. So the not snitched policy for me was something I learned from her and from my aunt who was an active black thing, because for them it was about solidarity and figuring it out. So I want to say not only when I'm advocating for the freedom based on lyrics, the freedom of young thug, the freedom of Ghana, and the freedom of the guy who they say that the like wife and Lucci. All three of those brothers to me are in jail for crimes that right now they have not been convicted of, and she would be home helping the community like they were when a year ago they were bonding people out of jail who couldn't get cash bonds. Me and your brother who got caught selling the nick your mama couldn't get them out because she don't own our house no more. They bonded over thirty something brothers out. I think those three men need to be back on the street while they await trial. And I think that's yeah. Wait, Mike, I have I have a question. I have a question. I don't know how this works. I went to private school. But snitching, when you snitch on somebody, you're protected against yourself. You can tell on yourself. That's not snitching. I just can't tell on somebody else. Well, I didn't write all the street rules, and I don't know. Oh, you didn't know what you wanted. They're doing it. So you said they snitching on yourself. But snitching is on the person yourself. It's not snitching. If I get on the record and you know, I say, man, I killed somebody behind the subway, and then they find a body behind the subway. Ah, that's that's what these people are doing. In fact, that's owning up to it. That's looks like you own it up to the crime. You're taking the run. It's no IF's confession. Tab Yeah, I mean listen jay Z wrapped about sex, Murdering, Mayhem, Romance for the Streets. The Only Wife of Mine is a life of crime that was in the nineties when lyrics mattered, actually in storytelling mattered. I'm from Jersey. I appreciate nineties hip hop. I don't know what's going on today, but I'm a nineties hip hop girl where storytelling lyrics matter. Biggie d M, you know d M x jay Z. But in those stories, they were wrapping about their lived experiences, right, and people maybe right, so right so they so people were like, okay, and that's where the street cred comes in. But if you're gonna have the the the fun and fantasy part of that, and that's part of art and expression, that's great. But then if you want to get real and say, okay, this is about honesty and truth, but then you're talking about crimes you've committed over a beat. As Fanny Willis said, there there are consequences to the First Amendment. There's consequences. If you want, you can express whatever you want, but there are consequences when you do that. The freedom of speech stuff is not without limitation. So in this instance, I think it it has to do with each circumstance. Right, The law New York says that all right, rap lyrics can't be used um as a form of an expression against you, but you have to if you are going to use it, you have to have proven evidence that it's relevant. And I think that's a fair compromise because in in the case in Georgia, you know, these guys are off on rico charges and there's I encourage people to research the case. It's not like they just were in the wrong place at the wrong time. They're talking about assault, attempted murder, robberies. There's a whole criminal activity going on here. That's why they're in jail now waiting for do process. But if you're talking about bragging about the stuff that you've done in this criminal enterprise that you're allegedly in, how it's it's effective. Wasn't doing that the other the other case, the ones that were committing they were rapping about, wrapped about murdering, selling drugs. I've wrapped about everything you just name and and and, But but you don't what I'm saying. No, I was not. But that's what I'm saying about equity and fairness. Nancy Brophy was brought up on charges after writing an article how to Kill My Husband. They didn't allow her article to be used against her. All I'm saying in terms of lyrically, think about how many times you got on Facebook and say it some crazy nutass ship. You go on Facebook and threatened to kill the president. I didn't say, I said I wish he was dead. They go, They're gonna have different. That's called trial. Wrap On. You all should get wrapped on. Trial is written by Eric Nielsen, Andrea and Andrea Dennis. I wrote the foreword. Read the book so you can see the poorer you are, the lower you are. Everyone. They're white boys who wrote eminem like lyrics in Michigan and had to go to jail. M didn't have to go to jail because it was understood after math is behind an interscope and they got the lawyers to afford it. So I'm just going to encourage people before we move from a place of fear and say, Okay, well you wrote about it, you rapped about it. The guy behind the seven eleven, who knows who killed him? I was just rapping about the seven. The record was a different. Yeah, I killed I killed the Mexican dude. That dude was Hondri. It's different. But as a as a stand up comedian, as a stand up comedian, it is are you can't hold me accountable for what? Well, you can't hold me accountable because the first remember, protects you from being in prison. It doesn't protect you from being held accountable, but there's always consequence. But like a joke, you can't come up to me and tell me like, yo, you said this joke about this, you actually did this, Like no, it's a joke I'm creating. But the difference is we're confleting how it's being applied. If if there's an action active criminal case and there's detectives and there's evidence, and there's a trial, and your due process rights are being you know, explored, and then you have this evidence that oh wait a minute, this person not only did they are they accused of X, Y and Z, but they wrapped about X, Y and Z and it kind of matches here. So Urian, he was Mexican. So I think that we need to be very careful to your point. We need to be careful though also about what we condone and rationalize in our own communities too, because these are all these could be people that are committing crimes against your own people. And then you know it's viol in jail because they don't. I saw that nigga smoking crack saying, I'm got crosstitute, motherfucker out smoking cracking cry now told me he bought Let's and I know that they d So why I wish something like I don't like no, no, no. What I'm saying is what I'm saying is the guys that we're currently cheering for to be in jail are still alleged. They're being harder. They're not guilty yet we talked from a place. Ain't talking about that. I'm talking about Yeah, but what about them? TV Mike, what about them? Rappers will be on records smoking packs, and they're actually naming people that they actually killed. Did they name that we killed? The jest they got killed in their inniverses? Hoo is because that nuance kind of calms se because a lot of the rappers, again rappers are representatives, are the real gangsters. A lot of times rappers like get killed the oh my got shot. Yeah he just kill kills the tall plot nick in the corner. So you know what it used that used to be the no, hey they really out? Yeah, go back to Nancy glorified for it. I go back to Nancy bro. We goingfi killers all the time. By the way, we love killers and music is a powerful tool, especially in the black community. We went from you know, Negro spirituals and slave days using music to to guide people to freedom, to the civil rights Earth's you know, arm in arm for for rights to now we're glorifying this. You never heard of I'm just have you ever heard of stagger Lee? Okay what stagger Lee? Stagger Leg was a pimp who wore stats and cow who killed the nigga for knocking off his cap and wrote a song about it. A song not stagger Lee. We canna keep you going all night and we come back. I'm getting my fanal predictions on who's taking over the Daily Show by Hell of a Week In just a minute, he welcome back the Hell of a Week.

First up, two very funny men who are both current Daily Show correspondence and have both appeared on this program, Jordan Clipper and Roy Wood Jr. Panelists Who wins the fight in I'll start with you this. I know both of them. I gotta pick the O G. Roy Wood Jr. If you don't know Roy Wood Junior, Roy what you got? Roy Wood is one of the best comedians working in the entire country, one of the funniest dudes. I'm I'm royal all the way. Jordan Clapper and what he's done pointing out the absolute absurdity and asinine hypocrisy of Trump supporters and the man on the Street interviews. But what's going on right now? I just think I like Jordan Clapper, but that's because I'm a political person, so I'm a little biased the Jordan. I think it hilarious. Jordan hious answer is Claire, what's true in nature? Is also true in TV. Once you go black, you never go back. Roy Wood Jr. Wins the Okay. Next round, Roy faces off against another Daily Show correspondent, Ronnie Chang. Okay, like Trevor, Ronnie was born in another country. Will this outside his perspective give him the edge panelist? Who wins? Hater? Are you start? All right? I'm going with Roy on this one because I did say he was funny. I think he brings like you said. He's an o g at the come at Comedy Central. So since he made it to the next round, I'm all about Roy. Here you go. Okay, Uh, this is a tough one. Ronnie the Malaysian Sensation another great stand up comedian, but I gotta go with Roy. Roy Wood is just the beast. He's a monster stage Mike. There you sorry, Ronnie? Sorry, Ronnie, I love you. This is a close when Ronnie's funny as hell. But I don't know if Ronnie has to grab as Roy Wood Jr. Has. So Roy advances to the next level. Now in the next round, this is where it gets tricky. Roy takes on the first true outside of to the throne, Amber Ruffing. Okay, who I think is on this show next week. Don't make her cancel? All right, hand at least pick your fight at killing Mike who you got? And Roy wood Jr. I have five sisters. I like selling them half the render household. I will be going with Amber because I don't want my ship kicked in when I get Hey. And but it's great, she's already a tv OS. You've never seen Roy sitting behind a dusk and get the opportune of your host. I'm still going with Roy Roy Woody, all right, Tara, black girl magic, my husband like another close win, both fighters and more than qualified the way the crown. But I don't think Comedy Center will passes up the chance to get a host who's black, funny and a woman. And we're rough and winds. Okay, now it's time for the final boss. It's the return of a legendary warrior. Samantha B. Sam had her own show for six seasons. She got Emmy nominations papering the walls, plus she got her start as the Daily show correspondent. But does Amber have what it takes to fend off a daily show? O g H. Pick your fighter in. I'm going Amber. She might get the job, so I'm trying to okay, trying to get in her good gracious Now, Mike, I defer to the wisdom of my comrade. Okay, black girl magic. Okay, you go, Tara infol it's it's a new era of time to move forward, like go back, let's do it. Yeah, I just wanted to record to show you see all the black people stuff together the movie. Bros. Y'all can learn a lesson from this. You see what I'm saying. Another tough one. Both fighters have married. But Samantha b strikes me as a very smart person. There's no way she wants to go through all that ship again. So I am rough and it is the new King of the Daily Show. All hell the woman King. Take you all very much, playing Hell of a Week. We'll be back in a minute. Welcome back to Hell of a Week. Now, before we go, let's talk about the land of Oz. That's right, Pennsylvania, because Dr Oz is running for Senate there. But his campaign had snagged this week and when the report came out that he's apparently a puppy killer allegedly Okay from two thousand and ten, a laugh for which he was print to will investigator allegedly killed over a thousand animals, including over three hundred dogs and puppies, and experiments that violated the Animal Welfare Act. This is what I have a problem with the fake Karen Okay. If doctor Oz was allegedly doing this from eighty nine to two thousand and ten, why do people care now? Y'all loved him on over and the allegations were already out there back then. You loved him for thirteen seasons on his own daytime talk show. He was an alleged puppy killer then too. What's changed now? Oh? His allegiances. When he's endorsed by Oprah, it's all good. When he's endorsed by Trump. Puppy killer. I hate to tell you, but if these things are true, you've been supporting the puppy killer for a long time, so that makes you a necessary to puppy killing. The reality is nobody truly cans. They're just using this to win an election. Every year, three point three million dolls into shelters in six hundred and seventy thousand are euthanized. If you want me to believe you truly care about doctor Oz allegedly experiment on do go down to your local dog shelter and adopt one. Okay, they called me Charlottagne the Guy. I'll be back next week for more hell of a week. This has been a Comedy Central podcast
