Speaker 1: You're listening to Comedy Central. Wow from New York City,
Speaker 1: the only city in America gets the shows, and you
Speaker 1: send news it's the Daily Show with your host Hussen
Speaker 1: mid hih Wow. Hey everybody, I'm noting mid High and
Speaker 1: I'm on day too of hosting the Daily Show. I'm back, baby, Listen,
Speaker 1: I'm not I'm not fettling, Fettling, fettling. Listen, listen. It
Speaker 1: stays like today that I remember what my old boss,
Speaker 1: John Stewart used to say to me, Husten, please stop
Speaker 1: name dropping me when you tell stories. And Missy jay Stone,
Speaker 1: we got a lot to talk about tonight, so let's
Speaker 1: get into headlines. Let's kick things off with TikTok. It's
Speaker 1: the app that taught me how to make spaghetti and
Speaker 1: a washing machine, but it also gave me adult adhd.
Speaker 1: Look at my pen? Isn't this cool? Focus? Focus? But
Speaker 1: if you work for the government, your TikTok days are numbered,
Speaker 1: because the White House just announced that federal agencies have
Speaker 1: thirty days to delete TikTok from all government phones. Yeah
Speaker 1: that's right. President Joseph R. Boner Killer thinks that China
Speaker 1: could spy on us, But that's stupid because they use
Speaker 1: balloons now, Joseph. And you know what, China also thinks
Speaker 1: that this ban is stupid. A Chinese official is responding
Speaker 1: to this move this morning, saying, quote is the world's
Speaker 1: most powerful country. The US needs to be more self
Speaker 1: confident instead of being so afraid of an app loved
Speaker 1: by young people trying China. Oh what you're trying to
Speaker 1: press me? Oh? You think America isn't self confident. We
Speaker 1: call our national champions world champions. You're saying, let's say
Speaker 1: we call dims on the moon, that's our moon. We
Speaker 1: invaded the wrong country and stayed there for twenty years.
Speaker 1: Do you think I don't have the self confidence to
Speaker 1: just mindlessly stare at my phone. I'll do it right now, China.
Speaker 1: I'll give my soul to this thing right now, China.
Speaker 1: Kdd DD. But seriously, do you want to know how
Speaker 1: I know that China's really plan us. China doesn't use
Speaker 1: the same TikTok. Chinese TikTok has a time limit for kids.
Speaker 1: It's capped at forty minutes. Because China is smart enough
Speaker 1: to follow the fourth rule of the ten Crack commandments,
Speaker 1: never get high on your own supply. But let's because
Speaker 1: Biden isn't just moving against TikTok. He's also trying to
Speaker 1: kill student debt. And today the Supreme Court heard arguments
Speaker 1: about whether canceling student debt was legal. Now you know
Speaker 1: this issue, there's basically two camps. Right. There's one group
Speaker 1: that says, let's go clear history on everybody's student debt.
Speaker 1: Right when you think about that, don't do that, just
Speaker 1: to be clear, I'm not paying your student loan debt.
Speaker 1: I'm hussa minhaj, I'm not oprah okay. But then there's
Speaker 1: another group of Kirkland signature. Dad's going, hey, I had
Speaker 1: to work thirty hours a day to pay off my
Speaker 1: student debts. I got by Life's and so should you, kids,
Speaker 1: And Dad's I hear you. No one should be happy.
Speaker 1: But I promise you, even if student debt gets canceled,
Speaker 1: life is going to curb stomp your kids anyway. They're
Speaker 1: already they don't have health insurance, they're not going to
Speaker 1: be able to buy a house, and at some point
Speaker 1: they'll run out of clean water. So don't worry, boomers,
Speaker 1: You'll get what you always wanted, vengeance on your own children. Now,
Speaker 1: the big story that I want to talk about is
Speaker 1: all the drama in news media. Apparently everyone at GMA
Speaker 1: is taking the same guy. But these days the most
Speaker 1: scandalous place in TV news is Fox News. Now you're
Speaker 1: probably thinking Fox News, Oh shit, they're still out here
Speaker 1: smashing in these streets calling women hags. Nope, those days
Speaker 1: are over. They're dealing with this cumbersome, ugly hardware. These
Speaker 1: are voting machines made by Dominion, who no one had
Speaker 1: ever heard of until Fox put them at the center
Speaker 1: of a mass conspiracy. Fox said Dominion stole the election
Speaker 1: with these R two D two looking Janitor cars, and
Speaker 1: now Dominion is su Fox for one point six billion
Speaker 1: dollars and the lawsuit is airing out Rupert Murdoch's dirty laundry.
Speaker 1: There was breaking news tonight involving Fox News and owner
Speaker 1: Rupert Murdoch acknowledging under oath that Fox News hosts endorsed
Speaker 1: false election fraud claims. It's a candid admission from Fox
Speaker 1: News boss Rupert Murdoch about how his network handled Donald
Speaker 1: Trump's lie about the twenty twenty election. Murdoch acknowledging quote
Speaker 1: some of our commentators were endorsing false claims that the
Speaker 1: election was somehow stolen from former President Trump. Explosive newly
Speaker 1: revealed testimony in the Dominion voting system's lawsuits, Shocking new revelations,
Speaker 1: new bombshell admissions under oath. Oh is it a bombshell?
Speaker 1: Is it shocking? Is it explosive? Fox knew the election
Speaker 1: wasn't stolen, but they said it anyways, that's not shocking.
Speaker 1: If Brian Kilmeade ever completed a wordle, that would be shocking.
Speaker 1: Now I'm not shocked, but I will say I am
Speaker 1: very entertained. Because of this lawsuit, a bunch of Fox
Speaker 1: News hosts had to release their text messages and y'all
Speaker 1: know this, Yeah, no, no, no, you know this. There's
Speaker 1: LinkedIn you and then there's eye message you. That's the
Speaker 1: deep dark underbelly of who you really are. And boy,
Speaker 1: oh boy, where these eye messages? Good? New court filings
Speaker 1: show that in private, Fox host Tucker Carlson, Laura Ingram,
Speaker 1: and Sean Hannity were brutally ridiculing the claims of election
Speaker 1: fraud and the people who were making them. Top Fox
Speaker 1: hosts privately trash the Trump legal team for lying. As
Speaker 1: Tucker Carlson texted Laura Ingram, Sidney Powell is lying. It's insane.
Speaker 1: Ingram responded Sidney as a complete nut. Tucker Carlson referred
Speaker 1: to Donald Trump as a demonic force. The private mockery
Speaker 1: also targeted Trump lawyer Rudy Giuliani. Sean Hannity wrote, Giuliani
Speaker 1: is acting like an insane person, while Ingram remarked, such
Speaker 1: an idiot. Oh my god, do you realize what this means?
Speaker 1: These people are secretly sane. They also don't respect anyone
Speaker 1: they have on their show. These guys are texting each
Speaker 1: other all day about how bullshit Fox News is. Their
Speaker 1: group chat is basically MSNBC. But out of everything we
Speaker 1: learned about Fox News, there was one text that came
Speaker 1: out in discovery that truly freaked me out. It's when
Speaker 1: Tucker Carlson said Fox News had to be more supportive
Speaker 1: of Donald Trump's election claims. Tucker Carlson wrote his producer
Speaker 1: Alex Feiffer, do the executives understand how much credibility and
Speaker 1: trust we've lost with our audience? We're playing with fire
Speaker 1: for real? An alternative like Newsmax could be devastating to us.
Speaker 1: Do you and what he's saying. Here, he's saying, if
Speaker 1: I don't say this bullshit, my viewers will leave me.
Speaker 1: This whole time, we thought Fox News was manipulating its viewers,
Speaker 1: but it turns out the viewers were manipulating Fox News.
Speaker 1: So just think of it like this, Okay, Tucker Carlson
Speaker 1: is a moral vacuum, a whole, if you will, who
Speaker 1: glorifies election deniers, so a glory hole, and his viewers
Speaker 1: expect him to please them with his mouth, and he's
Speaker 1: constantly terrified that they'll find a new, more satisfying glory hole.
Speaker 1: And that's why Tucker Carlson will never stop sucking. For
Speaker 1: more on these revealing texts, we turned to a man
Speaker 1: I'm known for years, my good friend, Michael Costa, my
Speaker 1: new Michael. So I'll great to tell you, Michael Pasta.
Speaker 1: Now let's talk about this. Yeah, these text messages, they're
Speaker 1: devastating for Fox right, Oh absolutely, They're so embarrassing. I mean,
Speaker 1: being caught texting with your co workers. How humiliating. You know,
Speaker 1: what kind of losers have friends at work? I thought
Speaker 1: we were friends. And that's what's especially embarrassing for these
Speaker 1: hosts that they could have avoided all this just by
Speaker 1: not giving their phones to the court. The court won't
Speaker 1: know about your embarrassing texts if you don't give them
Speaker 1: your texts. Duh. No, they didn't give them their texts.
Speaker 1: They were forced to turn them over with the subpoena.
Speaker 1: What Yeah, yeah, Michael, a court can force you to
Speaker 1: hand over your text messages. No no, no, no no, no.
Speaker 1: Texts are private. No they're not. You can get them
Speaker 1: through a legal process called Oh my god, let's focus listen.
Speaker 1: Let me ask you this. Do you think this lawsuit
Speaker 1: will finally end the election fraud claims once and for all?
Speaker 1: I guess it depends. So wait, so wait, you're telling
Speaker 1: me that if somebody hypothetically was running a slip and
Speaker 1: fall insurance scam with my grandma and her roommate at
Speaker 1: the nursing as, a court could get those text messages. Yeah, easily, Michael.
Speaker 1: That would be very incriminating too. Okay, well, the blue bubbles,
Speaker 1: but not the green right, because because Beatrice Beatrice is
Speaker 1: on Android and it's just to set in her ways
Speaker 1: to switch, they can get every kind of bubble of Michael,
Speaker 1: what are you? Are you my dad? Let's focus on
Speaker 1: Fox News. Let's send Jesus Christ. What's happening right now
Speaker 1: is an existential christis. Financial loss is one thing, But
Speaker 1: the integrity of journalism in news, Jesus, what are you doing?
Speaker 1: I'm just clearing some space off my phone. I mean,
Speaker 1: Jesus Christ, I have a lot of texts. The leading
Speaker 1: text is not gonna work. It's not gonna help anything.
Speaker 1: A court can still find them in the cloud. Oh yeah,
Speaker 1: but but not if it's password particular, it's password protective.
Speaker 1: Is your password one one one? Oh my god, They're
Speaker 1: gonna know everything and they're gonna flip Beatrice for sure. Nana,
Speaker 1: you have to smother Beatrice. Do it with the pillow
Speaker 1: that says, bless this mess? Are you live? Texting a murder? Plain?
Speaker 1: No hous And I'm not stupid. I'm emailing here. It's
Speaker 1: a totally different They can still do that. It's the
Speaker 1: same thing. Okay, I watched this boom? All right there?
Speaker 1: Good love nabbing me now, Federles, Okay, talk to my lawyer,
Speaker 1: poland spring Hey, would you mind calling me? An uber?
Speaker 1: What's your address? Panama? Michael cos every Panama? And I'm
Speaker 1: hie when we come back, I'm going full hater on tech,
Speaker 1: don't go away an welcome back Hey show. If you're
Speaker 1: like me, your life is both owned and ruined by technology,
Speaker 1: So I want to talk to someone about how to
Speaker 1: break free from it all. Even though I've made a
Speaker 1: career of standing in front of screens and flailing my arms,
Speaker 1: I have a secret to tell all of you. I
Speaker 1: hate technology. Every new gizmo and gadget claims to be
Speaker 1: highly useful and easy to use. But if that were true,
Speaker 1: then why are we so frustrated by technology all the
Speaker 1: goddamn time? I decided to sit down with Marquees Brownlee
Speaker 1: aka MKBHD, who's been heralded as the greatest tech reviewer
Speaker 1: on planet Earth, bringing us endless videos of the newest
Speaker 1: high tech piece of shit. But could he convince me
Speaker 1: to join his Technomadia cult? Marques, you are like the
Speaker 1: Kim Kardashian up technology. What you say moves product, and
Speaker 1: you do have a lot of junk in your trunk
Speaker 1: to review. Has that been said? Where are you just? Yeah?
Speaker 1: I'm proposing that I like that you have dedicated your
Speaker 1: life to reviewing technology. Why there's a quote you've probably
Speaker 1: heard any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic. If
Speaker 1: you have a certain expectation and the tech actually gives
Speaker 1: you that output you expect, like that that working. I
Speaker 1: love that, And when it doesn't work, what does it feel?
Speaker 1: Incredibly frustrated to me? It feels like an abomination to society. Yeah,
Speaker 1: here's my problem. My brain is melting right now because
Speaker 1: I have to juggle one hundred apps just to communicate
Speaker 1: with eight people. When I was in college, there were
Speaker 1: three ways to get a hold of me. Okay, call
Speaker 1: me if you're confident, text me if you're shy, email
Speaker 1: me if you're smart. Now it's a hundred apps. I
Speaker 1: Message Friends, Android, annoying friends, Signal, pretentious college friends, what's
Speaker 1: at annoying family members, Instagram, DMS, horny randos, Twitter, DMS,
Speaker 1: angry political randos, evie psychos, paperless posts, liberal psychos. That's
Speaker 1: just messaging Marques. So you do have the option to
Speaker 1: not try any of the things you don't want. Until
Speaker 1: I go to a restaurant and you go, hey, can
Speaker 1: I get a menu? Yeah? And they go, oh yeah,
Speaker 1: just scan the QR code. I go no, No, I
Speaker 1: went to this restaurant to avoid being on my phone.
Speaker 1: And then they're like, oh, you have to also pay
Speaker 1: through your phone. In order to do that, you have
Speaker 1: to create a user name and password. Oh okay, so
Speaker 1: do you see what I'm saying? You just made this.
Speaker 1: I'll have the tunamount six steps harder. There's a goldilocks
Speaker 1: zone of like going a little bit into tech and
Speaker 1: seeing real benefit before going too far. But we got
Speaker 1: to try a whole bunch of bad ideas before we
Speaker 1: find one or two cool things. Housen might like. Marquez
Speaker 1: wanted to prove to me that tech could be useful
Speaker 1: and user friendly by doing what he's known for a
Speaker 1: product demo. Secretly, I suspected it would turn into an
Speaker 1: episode of this shit Doesn't work. These new tech enhanced
Speaker 1: products were a smart toothbrush, smart hover shoes, and a
Speaker 1: smart printer. And of course, all of these were supposed
Speaker 1: to be as easy as one, two, three. Right, let's
Speaker 1: see lean slowly forward, to move forward, slowly backward, to
Speaker 1: go backwards, and step off to get up. Okay, smart toothbrush,
Speaker 1: it's got a ton of sensors and it might be
Speaker 1: able to shed some light on something you can do better.
Speaker 1: All right, let's see how easy it is. Sure, Look
Speaker 1: at that a sticker reminding you how easy it is.
Speaker 1: Gonna plug it in right here? Right? All right? Is it? Yeah?
Speaker 1: All right? Back to the future. I can't believe there's
Speaker 1: no straps twist me. Yeah, are you open up somewhere
Speaker 1: around area at a tab because a sticker says effortless? Wait?
Speaker 1: Wait wait wait? Why is it going to why is
Speaker 1: it possessed? Connect this too? App? Right? Right? App store app?
Speaker 1: The problem is I just don't want my dentist to
Speaker 1: have even more info about me because I haven't been
Speaker 1: brushing the full happy birthday. Oh sorry, it says, do
Speaker 1: you not turn the power off until the initialization is complete.
Speaker 1: This takes about six minutes. So we're just gonna say,
Speaker 1: apples minuts. Where do I apply? So if I apply through? Yeah,
Speaker 1: so we have to make an account. We do have
Speaker 1: to type a wipecaut password. There's your keyboard, say kind
Speaker 1: of type. By the way, there's capital order. I have
Speaker 1: to switch between upper case and lower case and then down,
Speaker 1: you know, relationship ten because of stuff like that one. Well,
Speaker 1: I'll set up my own account. You're gonna use your
Speaker 1: full government name. Yeah, I'm gonna do exactly what it
Speaker 1: asked me to. I cook by the book. Man, I
Speaker 1: get it a password and then you just straighten your feet.
Speaker 1: How do you feel? I feel like a baby Garrette.
Speaker 1: I have to tackle a wi by as well. Yeah
Speaker 1: you want a password again? Yeah? Can you sign it
Speaker 1: to me? Unable to register user? Please try? Because what
Speaker 1: I'm saying try again? What does it say? That doesn't work?
Speaker 1: You know what? Man? How do I get off? H?
Speaker 1: You know it's not your thing. It's my thing? Brough?
Speaker 1: Oh you don't? Please try one more time? Third time?
Speaker 1: She doesn't work? Log in, log and and where what
Speaker 1: is the print? Ladies and gentlemen. Let's have our final products,
Speaker 1: shall we? I mean this, It doesn't work. It doesn't work.
Speaker 1: It didn't work. I felt like I had just proved
Speaker 1: to Marquez that his entire life was a lie. But
Speaker 1: he had a slightly different perspective. The goal of tech
Speaker 1: is really to just work every time and be as
Speaker 1: easy as possible. So I would just say to have
Speaker 1: patience with the things that don't work yet, because maybe
Speaker 1: they will soon. The print users prints are doing, so
Speaker 1: maybe the way to fix shitty modern technology is by
Speaker 1: becoming more patient and understanding users. Why don't you like it?
Speaker 1: There's an act open can clothes, you can close this
Speaker 1: ship doesn't why? Thank you Marquez. All right, stay tuned
Speaker 1: because when we come back, Rebel Wilson will be joining
Speaker 1: me on the show Don't Go Away. Welcome act to
Speaker 1: the Daily Show. My guest tonight is an actor you
Speaker 1: may know from Bridesmaids and Pitch Perfect. She's here to
Speaker 1: talk about the new dating apps she recently launched called Fluid.
Speaker 1: Please welcome Rebel Wilson. WHOA. Yes, I'm spreading Fluid America.
Speaker 1: They love you, Rebel. Hi, guys, you're late. You should
Speaker 1: you should do a guest house week. Oh I don't
Speaker 1: know whether I could do what you do. Sometimes I've
Speaker 1: done hosting gigs and they terrify me, like because I
Speaker 1: said the British like Academy Awards, the Bafts, and it
Speaker 1: was terrifying. Is it because like British actors take themselves
Speaker 1: very seriously. Yeah? Yeah. Like I made a joke about
Speaker 1: a male actor and then his wife came up to
Speaker 1: me and he's like, you know he's married, right, And
Speaker 1: I'm like, yeah, I wasn't like trying to get with
Speaker 1: him or anything. Yeah, okay, So it's very hard to host.
Speaker 1: Well yeah, I'm glad you're hosting. Thank you. I had
Speaker 1: a right sweeping of getting with people. You recently got engaged,
Speaker 1: Yes I did, yes, while you got engaged at Disneyland. Yes,
Speaker 1: I got engaged in Disneyland, the happiest proposal place on Earth. Yeah.
Speaker 1: So basically, like, it's not like I'm obsessed with Disneyland.
Speaker 1: You I go there every weekend and every important holiday
Speaker 1: and every important life event. So I did actually get
Speaker 1: to sleep inside Disneyland for my fortieth birthday. So I
Speaker 1: got to sleep overnight and I got those little like
Speaker 1: disability scooters and went around just by myself because it around.
Speaker 1: Why sleep in an empty thing that's like a horror
Speaker 1: movie that. It was really fun. It was really fun.
Speaker 1: And then I tried to break into the Truross thing
Speaker 1: and then I couldn't get that many. But it was fun. Yeah,
Speaker 1: you know, but were the rides open over night? No?
Speaker 1: They shut them eventually. Yeah. There's this whole thing with
Speaker 1: disney adults. Maybe I'm one of them. Did you notice something?
Speaker 1: There's actually gangs at Disneyland. There are like these gangs
Speaker 1: of adults. They have like cool names, like the White
Speaker 1: Rabbits or Children of Fanos Coco locos, like, yeah, they
Speaker 1: have all these gangs and sometimes they were matching vests
Speaker 1: and they walk around and like do gang stuff. So
Speaker 1: there's there's like an initiation where you have to like
Speaker 1: stab Goofy or something. It was actually one of the
Speaker 1: initiations was you had to steal the apple from the
Speaker 1: snow White ride. And the apple kept getting stolen so
Speaker 1: many times that they had to make it a hologram
Speaker 1: not a physical apple anymore. But don't ask me how
Speaker 1: I know about Disneyland gangs, because I will not say, yeah,
Speaker 1: it's not it's not like you're wearing gang colors right
Speaker 1: now at all. Right, I will say I did get
Speaker 1: banned from Disneyland for thirty days because I took a
Speaker 1: photo in a secret bathroom inside Disneyland when which is
Speaker 1: illegal at Disneyland. And I got officially banned for days.
Speaker 1: But they called me up and said, Rebel, what thirty days?
Speaker 1: Do you not want to come to Disneyland. You're away
Speaker 1: filming a movie or something, and I said, oh, June
Speaker 1: would be fine. So that's how I know you're a celebrity.
Speaker 1: Like Disneyland has met gala rules where they're like no
Speaker 1: photos here and then you break it and then they're like, look,
Speaker 1: we have to punish you. But looking at your Google calendar,
Speaker 1: yeah you yeah. Do you as a as a Disney adult,
Speaker 1: do you have beef with quidditch adults because there's adults
Speaker 1: that play in qudditch leagues. Yeah, yeah, you're laughing about
Speaker 1: like Harry Potter. You're like, yeah, yeah, oh my god, dogs. No,
Speaker 1: I don't have beef everyone. I'm just like spreading love
Speaker 1: and you know. Yeah, can I ask you a question? Okay,
Speaker 1: I always wanted to. I haven't done it yet, but
Speaker 1: I heard there is this like Disney Illuminati. It's called
Speaker 1: Club thirty three. Yeah, I know about this. So because
Speaker 1: I'm in it, I'm in it. Okay, So what this
Speaker 1: is a private conversation? Yeah, I mean it. Yeah, You're
Speaker 1: not supposed to say you're in it. I'm not supposed
Speaker 1: to reveal all the celebrities who are in it or
Speaker 1: other members, but yeah, I am in it, and we
Speaker 1: do secret cool shit together, like sometimes we go into
Speaker 1: Disney at five am in the morning just run around
Speaker 1: do so. Yeah we really. Yeah, I have a secret
Speaker 1: gathering in Palm Springs because what Disney used to go
Speaker 1: there to find inspiration. I don't know if you're Sometimes
Speaker 1: I say things it sounds like jokes, but it's totally
Speaker 1: totally yeah, okay, yeah, I'll go on to write a
Speaker 1: deep dive and confirm it. I want to talk to
Speaker 1: you about this amazing dating app you have, thank you,
Speaker 1: thank You. It's new, like none of the other dating
Speaker 1: apps have thought of this, and I was like, well,
Speaker 1: I thought of it, so trademark that shit. Yeah, it's
Speaker 1: called Fluid. And basically when I was I was on it,
Speaker 1: I wasn't so lucky in love. I was kind of
Speaker 1: like a late bloomer. And I when you joined a
Speaker 1: dating app, which I did, this one called Rya, and
Speaker 1: you had to like tick you had to label yourself
Speaker 1: and then label what you were interested in. And to me,
Speaker 1: I kind of like it felt really weird to like
Speaker 1: tick a box and say yes, I'm that, And so
Speaker 1: I wanted to create a dating app where you don't
Speaker 1: have to like label yourself. Sen's love without labels, and um,
Speaker 1: to me, it's really important because I think sexuality is yeah,
Speaker 1: so much more nuanced and complex than than just like
Speaker 1: labeling yourself and like you're a can of food or
Speaker 1: something um and uh. And so I wish that Fluid
Speaker 1: was an app that was available like five years ago
Speaker 1: because that would have really helped me a lot. And
Speaker 1: I was I was pre dating apps, never been. I'm
Speaker 1: ms dos, I'm like old school chivalry. My move was
Speaker 1: in college with my wife. I basically just went to
Speaker 1: the registrar's office and then took all the classes she
Speaker 1: was taking until she broke up with her boyfriend. And yeah,
Speaker 1: I was laying back in the cut. You have to
Speaker 1: you have to respect how long I held my plank
Speaker 1: because I was premed for two years, okay, and I
Speaker 1: should not be premed there. I should not just wait
Speaker 1: when you say plank, you what do you mean? I'm like, like,
Speaker 1: you know, like and like and like when you're like exercising,
Speaker 1: they're like, hold the plank. Okay. Yeah, maybe that's just
Speaker 1: that various boot camp that I got to. Yeah, I
Speaker 1: don't know. Yeah. Um. But the question that I had
Speaker 1: was how do you initiate conversation? That's a question, yeah,
Speaker 1: because people are going to be going on Fluid, They're
Speaker 1: going to be matching and then they're like what do
Speaker 1: we do? What do I say? Um? How do you?
Speaker 1: How do you inter emoji, just put a bag like
Speaker 1: you match with someone, send a mkuala emoji. It could
Speaker 1: mean multiple things. I mean maybe it particularly worked for
Speaker 1: me because I'm Australia, but yeah, okay, I mean it's
Speaker 1: interesting what some people just do, like a wave emoji
Speaker 1: or something like not even just a sentence, just another emoji.
Speaker 1: I was like, what are you supposed to write back
Speaker 1: when someone does the hey? I have no idea. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I mean the hey, it's kind of just do you
Speaker 1: take it? As is that too much? No, like it
Speaker 1: would be too much. He's like calling you babe in
Speaker 1: like the first message. Okay, you're not. You don't get
Speaker 1: to babe until like you've been on like five dates
Speaker 1: at least, I think, um yeah, or like just saying
Speaker 1: what about we meet at Starbucks at eleven am, like
Speaker 1: you know, you know, like up to somebody in a bar.
Speaker 1: I love. I would love the opening line. You've got
Speaker 1: to have a bit of banter. Okay. So so what
Speaker 1: I recommend to people is, yeah, to do it, do
Speaker 1: a little bit of banter and then get down to
Speaker 1: business about when, when and where you're going to meet
Speaker 1: up in a public place for safety always like I
Speaker 1: did one experiment called the Year of Love in twenty nineteen,
Speaker 1: where I went out with everybody who asked me out
Speaker 1: as an experiment, so I was dating should be Yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: I think just ended everyone. That's the craziest improper. Yeah,
Speaker 1: everybody he said yes, unless they were in a federal prison.
Speaker 1: I went out with. That was the one caveat and like,
Speaker 1: and so I got I did get really good at
Speaker 1: dating because I felt like in my twenties I was
Speaker 1: studying and working, so I didn't I didn't really date much,
Speaker 1: so I had no experience. So I spent one really
Speaker 1: focusing on dating and but yeah, but I would just
Speaker 1: say banter it up and like yeah, and then set
Speaker 1: up a meeting in a public place. Okay, safety can

Speaker 1: you capital h y or do you do all lowercase?
Speaker 1: Are you like I do punctuation. Maybe it's because I'm
Speaker 1: a law school graduate. Yeah, me too. But I didn't know.
Speaker 1: I didn't know that's corny. Now like now it's all
Speaker 1: ironic detachment. I think that's a sign of good education. Yeah, yeah, okay,
Speaker 1: thank you, thank you. I like you're about about that. Um.
Speaker 1: I wanted to ask you what is an instant red
Speaker 1: flag for a dating profile? Okay, there's some things. A
Speaker 1: man holding a fish? Why? Who love nature? No? Something
Speaker 1: weird about it? Also, girl on a horse? No, whole schools?

Speaker 1: a lot of guy friends that are like sunglasses Machu pichu.
Speaker 1: It's in Peru. It's like a oh, and they need
Speaker 1: the pyramids or something. It's kind of like it's not there,
Speaker 1: that's ina but but but it is. It is like
Speaker 1: a civilization built into a mountain. But they'll be like
Speaker 1: at the top of it and they're just like I'm Mike,
Speaker 1: you know, and it's just like sunglass, Like they're saying
Speaker 1: they've climbed this, and they might climb me. You I think, well, okay,
Speaker 1: I thought it would be hot, that could be hot time.
Speaker 1: I think it was more like I'm like well traveled
Speaker 1: and okay, okay, yeah, yeah, Well you can read lots
Speaker 1: of things. I mean I definitely when I was on
Speaker 1: the app, so I would look at people's foot and
Speaker 1: try to work out things about them, and you know,
Speaker 1: if I thought they were like cool, really not? Yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: but sometimes you can never tell them. Some of them
Speaker 1: do have a criminal record. How many criminals have you dated?
Speaker 1: Oh my god? I do have the number of the
Speaker 1: APPII because they volunteered to check people out for me. Yeah, okay,
Speaker 1: we're putting okay fluid the app here what yeah. Yeah,
Speaker 1: whether they do this for all actors, but they're like, oh,
Speaker 1: you know, if you ever want to background check somebody,
Speaker 1: you let us know their name and their number. And
Speaker 1: so I did. It turns out that guy had an
Speaker 1: assault charge from Chicago. Yeah, and then and then I said,
Speaker 1: how bad is that? Because he was quite hot? And
Speaker 1: then they go, I wouldn't let my daughter date him.
Speaker 1: So I said okay, and I ended it. So the
Speaker 1: FBI has really helped me. I did. The pizs and
Speaker 1: valleys of that story is kind of like MARCHI Picchuka. Okay,
Speaker 1: obviously you you founded this amazing app and not many
Speaker 1: females in tech. Yeah, let me get in. It's an
Speaker 1: amazing app. Okay, it's an amazing Um. How do you
Speaker 1: think this app would have changed your life five years ago? Um?
Speaker 1: I think it would have. I was someone who, like
Speaker 1: I didn't I was kind of dating guys, but I
Speaker 1: didn't think I was a one hundred percent straight. But
Speaker 1: I just I grew up in a very conservative Christian background,
Speaker 1: and so I never quite explored that area. Whereas the
Speaker 1: cool thing with fluid is like, you know, maybe a
Speaker 1: woman would have popped up and I would have been like,
Speaker 1: oh yeah, and it's there's no judgments to like chat
Speaker 1: to someone on fluid and so you could and you
Speaker 1: would have just chatted to them and maybe I would
Speaker 1: have got to know somebody quicker. Yeah. So I kind
Speaker 1: of wish it it was around earlier, and that's why
Speaker 1: I wanted to make it and put it out there
Speaker 1: and have it be a free app that people could
Speaker 1: download and hopefully will help lots of people find love
Speaker 1: and you could be like totally straight on it, you
Speaker 1: could be gay, you could be like in any of
Speaker 1: the intersectional queerness it's out there and find love on
Speaker 1: this and it actually just it widens the dating pool
Speaker 1: and it's sure some people you won't be interested in,
Speaker 1: and then the algorithm will learn not to send you
Speaker 1: too many of those people, but they might show you
Speaker 1: a wild card. It's like when you're shopping for like
Speaker 1: a cheesecake and you might not know what flavor you
Speaker 1: want until you see it in front of you, right,
