You're listening to Comedy Central. Coming to you from New York City, the only city in America. It's the Daily Show tonight. Who just peak tagu Kim Kardashian cells out, methic man. It's the Daily Show with driver's Call. Everybody, welcome to the Danky Shark showing. Thank you so much for tuning in, Thank you for coming out in person. It's much to be Thank you every single taken. See everybody taken. See we have got one hell of a show for you tonight. Brazil is in a love triangle, Kim Kardashian is sorry she tricked you, and Naga Republicans are about to get laid. Plus our guests tonight from the legendary Wu Tang Clan. Method Man is joining us on the show talking about a brand new movie. So let's through the people. Let's sound straight into today's headlines. Wow, guys are amazing. I feel like we've already met all. Right, Before we get into the big stories, let's catch up on a few other things going on in the world. We start off like Pele in Brazil. The South American nation held its presidential election last night, and because neither of the top choice has got a majority. They are now going to be having a runoff election at the end of October. Yeah, and then if it's still tied after the runoff, then I assume they go into penalty kicks. And now the international news, the African nation of Bikina Faso has had another shake up in its government because the military leader who took power in a coup earlier this year has now himself been ousted in a second coup. And I guess he can't complain, right, what is he gonna say? What gave you the idea that you could just oh, yeah, but now but now the new guys. Now, now the new guy has to be like, Okay, I think we can all agree that this is the exact right number of coups. Two feels like the right vibe, you know what I'm saying. So my thoughts obviously with the people of a King of Fossil, but also with Donald Trump. Yeah, must hurt him especially bad to see two cups in a row carried out properly. Goes up back the end of the US. In some legal news, California has officially announced that jaywalking is now no longer a crime. Yeah, so congratulations, to the Californians were like walking places. This is great news for the six of you. And when you do cross the road, remember to watch. However, for that bush, well, at least you didn't die committing a crime. All right, Let's move on to some of the biggest stories of the day, starting with the global economy. I don't need to tell you this, but right now the entire world is teetering on the brink of recession. Don't don't even move, you might tip it over. And if you think things are bad for real money, things are even worse for fake money, which is why the n f T market has fallen from its peak last January, which I'm shocked. Who would have thought paying fifty grand for a picture of a digital monkey was a bad financial move. It's just it's just so hard to predict this stuff. But yeah, n f t s have collapsed, and now all the board apes have been released back into the wild. I ran over one of my car the other day. It was so tragic. They just are not equipped to be out there in the streets. And it's not just the n f T s. Cryptocurrencies are plunging in value, all of them, Bitcoin, Ethereum, those point tether, even trev butt Coin, which I made up just now. I made it up in this moment, but he's already lost two billion dollars. Ships, wild guys. Now, as the crypto bubble pops, some major names are now getting in trouble for how they convinced their fans to invest in crypto. Reality star Kim Kardashian has been charged by the Securities and Exchange Commission the SEC, for the way that she promoted a cryptocurrency asset on Instagram. She has settled this charge with the SEC. The SEC says that she unlawfully used her Instagram account to promote a cryptocurrency token and did not disclose to her many many followers that she was being paid two hundred and fifty thousand dollars to do that. The SEC going out there and saying, hey, just because as a celebrity or influencer says something about a potential financial product, don't necessarily believe it. Yeah, thank you, SEC. You cannot just trust anything a celebrity cells I learned this the hard way as the owner of Queen Elizabeth's penis and lodgement spray. It's more of a miss than a spray queen rest in peace. But still, by the way, why do I feel like this whole investigation might have been started because someone at the SEC was caught looking at Kim's Instagram. It's such a unique case. Someone was like, someone was like, oh no, boss, this is not what it looks like. I'm doing an investigation. I wasn't looking at a vracation photos crypto. In case you're wondering, By the way, Kim Kardashian has agreed to pay the SEC a fine of one point three million dollars, which is five times when she got paid for the ad. And I mean, now the question is how she gonna make up that loss. Well, I'll tell you how with trip butt coin. Trip butt coin. I know it seems shady, but coin. Oh. Speaking of scandals, recently, the world of alternative sports has been rocked by some of the craziest cheating allegations you have ever heard. And when I say alternative sports, I mean it's you might remember this, but a chess champ was accused of using anal beads to pick the best moves right. Recently, a poka star has just been accused of using some kind of vibrata to win bigans in games. And now and maybe my favorite story of all time, accusations of cheating have rocked the world of competitive fishing. Let's get to a big story now in the fishing community, two fishermen are accused of adding weights to their fish to win a popular tournament. So here's what went down. People in the crowd suspected foul play and they prompted the fish to then be inspected when the director found multiple lead weight stuffed inside them. Who's got damn those dudes of piste you're called the cops? Call them child of telling the fish called the cups right now, I haven't seen white dudes. This mat about fish since the Disney relauns the Little Mermaid thing, why call the con But yeah, it turns out apparently two fishermen allegedly stuffed the fish that they caught with lead weights to make the fish way more because apparently the heavier the fish, the more prize money you can win. And in this case, the prize was twenty nine dollars, which is so much money, you realis At Long John Silvers you can get a fish with two sides and a drink for uh, and then you can use the rest of your dollars to buy truff butt coin, truff bud coin, the coin that always comes up tails. You know, if I'm honest, I almost admire the simplicity of the scandal. I really enjoyed this, you know, because in other sportsmen people cheat. It's like, oh, untraceable performance enhancing drugs and h g H and the hidden surveillance cameras and secretly hollowed out pieces off. Yeah, these guys are just like, so what if we put some heavy stuff in the fish? I understand this. I am sad though, about the scandal, because winning at old costs isn't what fishing is about, all right, Fishing, it's about finding Nemo and eating him before his dad can get him back. I like that just said for not a real Nemo. All right. Finally, let's catch up on the latest updates from the war in Ukraine in our ongoing segments Glad Gone Mad. As we all know, seven months ago, Russia's most famous bowlding troll invaded his neighboring country, and although so far he's only been able to capture about fift of Ukraine, last weekend he announced no basis. President Putin has announced the annexation of four regions of Ukraine that are partially controlled by Russian forces. It is the biggest seizure of territory in Europe since the Second World War. Russian President Vladimir Putin proclaiming victory will be ours after formally announcing the illegal annexation of of Ukraine, joining hands with the leaders of four Russian occupied regions, chanting Russia. In a fiery speech, Putin warning he'll do everything possible to defend the Ukrainian territory as his own. That territory of Vladimir Putin insists is now and forever will be Russian. I want the key of authorities and their real masters in the West to hear me so that they remember this forever. People in new hands and dons her Song and Zapariga are becoming our citizens forever. God tem That's the scariest beginning to a relationship I've ever heard. We're together forever. Here I made. You will be a fifth Nicholas, you will wear it forever. When we see each other, we will put heads together and say besties forever. This is yet another escalation in the war people. Putin has declared that this territory is his. Yeah, he invaded, he held a sham election, and then he celebrated by hosting a literal jerk circle. And by the way, by the way, can I just say props to whichever cameraman chose to show the angle that shows Putin as short as he actually is. Yeah, because everyone's like, how tory, that's how he That's yeah, this is what happens. There's your short king. Whoever, whoever that cameraman was, you better have someone taste your food for the next few months. Oh and by the way, it was big day. Wasn't just about him imposing Russia's will on other countries. No, he also found a moment to deliver a furious rant about how America does it too. Instead of democracy, there the suppression and exploitation instead of freedom, enslavement and violence. America is the only country in the world that has used nuclear weapons twice when they destroyed the Japanese cities of Hiroshima and Nagasaki. By the way, they set a precedent with that and earlier launching a tirade against the US and its allies, saying Western nations are moving towards open Satanism. Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa whoa Americanism moving towards Satanism. Relax. Guy walked into one walmart during Halloween suddenly thinks everyone here worships the devil. I can't wait till he comes back. During Valentine's Day, they have naked baby shooting people to force them in love. Reminds me of my wedding day. Will be honest, But that wasn't even close to being the most interesting part of his speech, because what Prutent basically spends a lot of time saying is that people shouldn't complain about what he's doing because the West has also done bad things in the past, you know, and that's disingenuous. You know. It's sort of sort of like how if you complain about the leg groom on Spirit airlines, they shut you up by showing you pictures of other airlines that have crashed. You know. It's just like, oh, I'm sorry, you're not comfortable, but you know what you are alive now, sit your ass down and shut up. By the way, the peanuts are twenty dollars. And here's the weird thing. Putin isn't necessarily wrong. Astrix Astrix Astrix astricx aestrix. The West has created the system where people get trapped in perpetual debts and this truth. Certain countries don't participate in the global order. They get sabotaged into bending the knee. But that doesn't mean that he's right for what he's doing. You know. This is the thing that that sucks about bad guys. Oftentimes they'll use the truth to justify their evil actions because what part of what he's saying is true? It's like what it's Putin who's saying it's I hate it? What did that happened? Bagass? Is like the real thing? Like, like, do I agree that the human population is over consuming and slowly killing the earth? Yes, I just wish that Fanos wasn't the one that's at it, you know what I mean? And maybe this is what leaders in the West needs to understand. If they don't practice the ideals that they so often preach, madman like Putin will exploit that hypocrisy to justify the evil that he does in his name. All right, that's it for the headlines, But before we go, let's check it on the traffic with our very own right with Junior. Everybody, Well, you need to traffic. You're going somewhere. No, No, Roy, not like anytime soon, right like this is just for the people at home right now. I'm still gonna be here for a significant while.

You're lible to leave during the next commercial break. We're probably talking to too much right now. No, No, that's not true, Roy, that's not true. And then when you bring my name into it, when you quit, you don't lead a show, lead a show, but you started, You started the ship last you still I was talking to Roy with you, you could have just said, bitch, I'm gone. That's all you had to say was I'm gonna bitch on out, and you didn't have to drag my name into it. Not everybody on my Twitter yelling at me thinking that it's my fault that you decided to leave the show and it's not my fault, when the truth didn't matter. You was out the night before we're doing the Peter and you was out there in the streets with that singing, Roy, Roy, that that is not how it happens. That is not who do not gonna leave? Anything you read in the tabloids, Roy, don't don't leave. You came in here and then you set me up.

You couldn't turn to running and said, Ronnie, you need to get the scott of here. Some ship about to go down. But you didn't do that. That you you didn't do that. See that that's said I understand Trump. Now, we can't be giving these immigrants these jobs because these immigrants you come over and you don't treat the job right. Roy. We we had, we had a wonderful seven years together. It has nothing to do with you. You inspired me. If anything it was I was, it was I was thanking you in a way. That's what's up? You're just thinking me, you're just gonna come over in me. I think I'm gonna just do traffic. I don't do traffic today. What you want? What do you want? You want? You wanna talk about Burkina fasso? If anything, if anything, you can know what the upside to a coup is this like say what you want by the dictator, but at least stay, stay until somebody forces them out. They don't quit on their friends and then throw their friend under the unders. I can throw you under the bus, Roy, And I feel like, right now you're being a little dramatic. We can we can we just talk about the traffic like it's the talk about track. Let's you know, speaking of let's about jay walking. Thank you, thank you? J walking legal Now that's what they're saying. They say, it's legal, now legal instead of doing the one thing that everybody should expect, you, dude, you can just up and turn left and just ruin the flow of everybody else's life without any consideration. It is perfectly legal. Did you go look at me? I'm walking around up. Everybody else is trafted. Roy. Okay, I'm sorry that you feel like I said you were responsible for me leaving the show. Okay, I'm sorry. I'm also sorry that people are blaming you on social media because, yeah, because you did nothing wrong, my friend, I'm sorry, I'm sorry. Yeah, oh you did what inspire me to leave the show. So in that spirit, my friend, can you please just do the traffic may do your own damn traffic man, Imbut well, thank you so much for that. What Reginia? All right? When we come back, we're gonna take a look at the hardest panting app. Keep having a harder back. We don't go away. Welcome back to the Daily Show. The second Moment, The second Moment to talk about dating apps, the quickest and most convenient way to meet a few dozen psychopaths. These days, practically every single person in the world is on an app like Tinder or Bumble, but apparently not everyone feels like those apps are serving their needs. We're back with some headlines calling all conservatives. A new dating app called The Right Stuff just might give you a chance to meet your true match. It was funded by Peter Tale, but founded by former officials in the Trump administration who had a hard time finding like minded people to date on the existing dating apps that often made them feel and welcome. But yeah, some of my friends would try to use the apps THETA. The minute they became they became known that they were working for Trump, the date immediately ended. That happened several times and my friends really, yeah, girls will just get up and leave or you know, abruptly try to end the date. Okay, Well, to be fair, to be fair, you can't assume these women left the date because of your politics. You can use you that. I mean, let's be honest. Trump stuff has got fired like every week, right, every single week they were getting fired. Maybe they just didn't want to date someone who was about to be broke. You don't know. It's like, where do you work? I work for Trump? Oh not for long? And also I call bullshit on this whole story. When does anyone go on a date and not know what the person does ahead of time? It's two We all have the internet. Let me tell you something. By the time you get to the restaurant, you know their job, their friends, their dating history. If they've taken a picture on a beach after your two thousand and five, you've seen it. Right. Either way, none of this will be an issue anymore thanks to the right stuff. And you're dating app just for conservatives that launched over the weekend, and once people started signing up, it was immediately clear that this isn't like other dating apps because there are prompts for things like favorite Bible verse that's fine, favorite conservative pundits, and January six was blank. Yeah, so good luck out the all your conservatives hoping to match with that special FBI agent monitoring the site. And I love There's nothing wrong with having a conservative dating side, nothing wrong at all. There are plenty of apps where you can meet people with like the same religious beliefs, apps where you can meet fellow farmers. There's even an app where you can connect with other die hard Star Trek fans, which I think is super cool. It's great being able to avoid that awkward conversation about still being a virgin, because now you can just assume, you know, there's like you. You yeah, but if you ask me, you asked me. These apps are just one more way that people are retreating further and further into their own little bubbles when you spend all your time with other people who are just like you, and in my opinion, that's a little sad, which is why I'm glad the thanks to the Daily Show, there is another new dating app that's coming out soon that takes a much different approach. Are you tired of going on dates with someone who's just like you so you also support gun control? Yeah? Bull ring? Why not try a dating app that's guaranteed to create a spark introducing hate and hate. We'll help you find someone you absolutely despise so you can bang out your differences. That's why to me, January six, upon the worst days in American history. Really, I was there on January six. I thought it was a blast. People like you make me sick. People like you make me sick. Places from with America more divided than ever, hate has become the defining emotion of our times, and hate is here to make the most of it. Here's how it works. When you sign up, you fill out a detailed survey about your most impassioned political beliefs. Then Hate will use a proprietary algorithm to find someone who thinks those beliefs ain't ship. Because you can't see red or blue when the lights are outside, that's gonna affect that peppah b. There's like a puppy hoping America comes together, alright, sat you because when we come back, they want to know only Method Matters will join me right here on the show, So don't go old. He show, I guess like. It's a Grammy Award winning rapper and original member of the Wuchang Plan. He's also an act and you know him from shows like PowerBook to Ghosts. He's here to talk about his latest film, on The Come Up, which is streaming now on Paramount Plus. Please welcome clip method Man Smith. Yeah, Mr Mesta. Method made the Day Show? Are you kidding me? The Daily Show made it. Now good to have your in person. Last time we spoke was virtual. Now you're here in the flesh. I've always wondered this. There are a few human beings who have had careers as long and as successful as yours, but also careers that have spanned, you know, different worlds. Some people know you from the Wu Tang clan. Some people know you from Great Man and Method Man right right. Some people know you from How High. Some people know you from the Wire. Some people are just like he's an Instagram sex man, Like you're you're sex symbol and Instagram and on top of that, you're making movies like, does it ever dawn on you how much you've done, how much you are doing, how how amazing your journey has been. When I step out my door. Yeah, I love that. It's pretty cool. Um. I wish these people could tell my kids this, because I don't know if they know how cool their dad is, you know, but it's it's pretty cool, you know, to have a career this long and still be relevant and have options, it's great. And to still be enjoying it. That's what I see in your eyes. You enjoy every single moment. You know. You always hear these stories of musicians moving into film and they try it out, but you always hear these stories about how they divas, they used to being rock stars. When they get on film, they want the same treatment. Everything I've heard about you from everyone. It's almost like they know you're behind the corner even when you're not. Is positive every single thing they go. This man is professional, he loves it, he's courteous, he knows all of his lines, he's prepared. He is the epitome of what people want Hollywood to be. Congratulations on that, well, I think I think the uh the biggest problem with some musicians are certain artists who try to branch into acting is they say things like I'll try it for a minute. You know, this is something a lot of actors study for years. There are actors out there right now that you guys probably haven't even heard of, that are cutting their teeth every day, every month, every year, still working the nine to five job, but making those auditions. You know, So who am I to cut the line and not do the work? You know? So you film new film that's coming out on Paramount Plus is it's an it's amazing story. We saw the clip and I love how much this film ties into your life because this this movie is a story of a talented young woman was trying to get into the rap game, and your character plays a pivotal role in shaping her world. I would love to know when when you first read the script and when you first heard about the story, and even when you were making it, like, were there parts of the journey that reminded you of your assent? Interrupt? Absolutely, That's why the character I played its name supreme. That's why I wanted to play him as honest as possible. I mean, of course it would be a parent that he would he would supposedly be the villain in a story like this. You know, because artists, the one thing that we like to hold on too when we do our art is our integrity and compromises out of the question if you're a true artist, and Supreme comes across as someone that tells you straight up and down, yes you can still be an artist, but you can compromise as well, so we can get this money, which is basically what it is at the end of the day, So we can get a better life, get your mother a better life. This, that, and the third and it's not exactly dangling a carrot in front of her, is just saying I can make you better than what you are right or wrong. You you had periods like that in your life. I'm assuming you had periods where you could have chosen a fork in the world. I mean, you know, like the Wu Tang clan wasn't exactly the most like accepted in terms of commercial Now you now you go every people who chang, who chang, and people have grown up with the white people love us exactly said you said, But but but I wonder how you maintain that integraty even when when when you you know when it was written mess like, how did you maintain that? How did you not go I will forego what I want to do creatively to maybe make more money or become more famous. Why did you not do that? Well? I have a lot of people around me that let me know when I'm full of ship, and uh, it keeps me pretty grounded, because you can smell it when you're grounded, you know, um, and you know where I'm from. Every opportunity that comes along is is something like a blessing, you know. And like I said, to be doing it this long and for people to still, you know, trust me enough to work with me, it's just great. And uh, the grounded part is I was born that way. I'm a humble person at heart. And I thank you. I like how it's not like record. I don't interrupt you, and I really know in family and friends as much as possible. Yeah, and it shows, It really does show. And I felt it even in in this film, because you know, we've seen films that talk about a career, we see films that talk about what happens in life in the streets and hip hop, whatever it may be. But what I loved about this film is how it came together how you portrayed because you say villain, but really it's it's villain is always from a certain perspective, absolutely, you know. And when I watch you on on screen, I go, I don't like what you did, but I understand why you're doing. I don't know how I feel about you. You play this character with nuance. I also have to give credit to the director directed this character with with nuance. This is amazing for I mean, like so not. Lathan is a gem. You know, she's a legend. She hasn't gotten her do in so many ways, and here she is directing for the very first time, and it's amazing. How did that feel for you? Man? As soon as I heard that she was the director, I was like, I gotta support my sister. Let's go, you know. And yeah, and uh, she did a fabulous job. You know, she's not heavy handed when it comes to the director. This is the the result of having someone who was an actor as opposed to you know, just camera work. So she saw it from both angles and she walked us through it a lot. I mean, we were prepared to the point of being so prepared that our lead actress, Jamilac Gray, who did a great job. Um, she had very little time to film the battle because you know how budgets are and things of that nature. And Jamilla was on it. And this is a testament to Snia's work ethic and like I said, she had a vision and us as actors took on the roles of trying to make that vision come to life as well as Angie's book, Angie Thomas, Yes, what can I just say, first of all, as I always say to congratulations, thank you for being the epicure me of what I would hope to even try to be in life with somebody who enjoys what they do, somebody who crushes it in everything that they do. I appreciate you so much. You know, I love not a man. Everybody, let's go cross the found. We're gonna take a quick break. We'll be right back after this all. Let's talk up with tonight before we go. Before we go, I wanted to remind you. I wanted to remind you that Hurricane in is one of the most powerful storms to hit the United States in decades. Right now.
