Speaker 1: You're listening to Comedy Central Great Britain. Last week, Let's
Speaker 1: Trust announced, after just forty four days in office, she
Speaker 1: would be stepping down as Prime Minister so she could
Speaker 1: move on to becoming that person who everyone recognizes but
Speaker 1: they can't quite remember from where like did we go
Speaker 1: to high school? To oh, you're the prime minister. Oh
Speaker 1: so sorry about it? Anyway, I can I have two
Speaker 1: large popcorns please? And uh? Anyway, Let's Trust is gone
Speaker 1: and it looks like the UK has got a brand
Speaker 1: new man. We begin in the United Kingdom, which is
Speaker 1: about to get its third prime minister in less than
Speaker 1: two months. Just a short time ago, the ruling Conservative
Speaker 1: Party announced that former Finance Minister Reci Sunac won the
Speaker 1: race to become partner leader and Prime Minister. Will become
Speaker 1: this country's first ever prime minister of color forst ever
Speaker 1: Asian prime minister and first ever Hindu Prime minister. Richie
Speaker 1: Suna not only the first person of color to walk
Speaker 1: through turn doubting, also the youngest prime minister here in
Speaker 1: about two centuries. Really a history of day. A former
Speaker 1: investment banker, he and his wife are reported to be
Speaker 1: among the country's richest people. It is the greatest privilege
Speaker 1: of my life to be able to serve the party
Speaker 1: I love and give back to the country I owe
Speaker 1: so much too. Yeah, that's right. The UK's new Prime
Speaker 1: Minister is former Finance Minister Rishi Sunak, and he's Indian,
Speaker 1: he's Hindu, and he's only forty two years old, which
Speaker 1: means he will probably serve well into his forty two
Speaker 1: and a half's easily. And let's not forget, let's not
Speaker 1: forget another important first. He's also the first prime minister
Speaker 1: who's an absolute snack. Yeah, look at you, Rishi. And
Speaker 1: before you thinking oh is he don't forget who came before?
Speaker 1: Don't forget. We're moving on up. Of course, of course,
Speaker 1: not everyone in the UK is happy about Richi Sunak
Speaker 1: taking the top spot and making history. And it's not
Speaker 1: because of his policies or because of his personality. No,
Speaker 1: there are some people who have a problem with something else,
Speaker 1: as as this caller to a British radio show so
Speaker 1: eloquently explained. Is the real problem here, Jerry that Richie
Speaker 1: Senac as a brown man and you don't trust him
Speaker 1: at the top of this country. Well, did you imagine
Speaker 1: him going to the Scottish nationalists and being the prime
Speaker 1: Minister of the Scottish nationalists. Could you imagine me becoming
Speaker 1: the prime minister of Pakistan or Saudi Arabia. No, these
Speaker 1: things matter. Sorry you don't like it, but this is
Speaker 1: predominantly We're talking about England, right of the English people, Yes,
Speaker 1: are white english people and they want to see a
Speaker 1: point minister that reflects them. Yeah, yeah, this guy has
Speaker 1: a good point. Can you imagine if white English people
Speaker 1: wanted to rule countries when no one looked like them.
Speaker 1: I would never then can you imagine that wrong? What
Speaker 1: would that wrong? To be a mine? Now? You know
Speaker 1: what's so funny to me? It's funny how racists always
Speaker 1: say colonization was fine, it was a business, until they
Speaker 1: feel like they're being colonized, and all of a sudden's
Speaker 1: like something needs to be done, something needs to be done,
Speaker 1: not even being colonized. The guy is British. What's wrong
Speaker 1: with you? You You know? And if you ask me, British
Speaker 1: racists are looking at this whole thing all wrong. This
Speaker 1: could be a good thing for you people. After four years,
Speaker 1: you'll finally get to legitimately blame a brown person for
Speaker 1: your country's problems, you're living your dreams. Wake up. I
Speaker 1: mean there was a part of me. There's a part
Speaker 1: of me that feels a little bad for England's racists,
Speaker 1: not because because I remember remember they voted for Brexit
Speaker 1: specifically to keep Britain white, and that vote started a
Speaker 1: seven year chain of dominoes that has now led directly
Speaker 1: to an Indian prime minister. Ah. Yeah, they're probably like, oh,
Speaker 1: this is certainly a rich irony at my expense in it. Yeah,
Speaker 1: And here's the thing. Keep in mind, this caller even
Speaker 1: says that he is touring so this is the same
Speaker 1: party as Rishi Sunak, right, which means they probably agree
Speaker 1: on all the same policies. He just doesn't like that
Speaker 1: he's not white, which I don't understand. I truly don't understand.
Speaker 1: What are you scared of? What is this? What is
Speaker 1: this call is scared of? Does he think Snaka is
Speaker 1: gonna walk up to the podium on his first day
Speaker 1: in office and be like, it is the greatest privilege
Speaker 1: of my life to be able to give back to
Speaker 1: the country I owe so much too, and to show
Speaker 1: my gratitude, I just want to say I'm selling Da
Speaker 1: dyak underto India that that the time you bat liens
Speaker 1: are planned, the all time happy divaches, it's not gonna happen.
Speaker 1: You're racist. The mid term elections, you know that all
Speaker 1: important day in November where you vote for a Senator
Speaker 1: or a congressman and then a bunch of positions you're
Speaker 1: not even really sure a real But this November, this November,
Speaker 1: there's one governor's race that could change things, not just
Speaker 1: for their state, but for everyone. And I'm talking about Arizona.
Speaker 1: It's the state for people who like Texas but wish
Speaker 1: you'd had more scorpions and old people. Right now, in Arizona,
Speaker 1: Republican Kerry Lake is in a neck and neck race
Speaker 1: against Democrat Katie Hobbs, and if Lake wins, it could
Speaker 1: change the course of American democracy itself. So let's get
Speaker 1: to know her better. In our latest installments of Fringe Watching,
Speaker 1: meets Harry Lake, candidate for Arizona governor and Boston, who's
Speaker 1: gonna send you back to Starbucks until you learn the
Speaker 1: difference between a flat white and allat tell you moron.
Speaker 1: Of all the newcomers to mega politics, Carry Lake is
Speaker 1: making the biggest waves. She defeated a mainstream Republican in
Speaker 1: the primaries. She's endorsed by Donald Trump himself, right, and
Speaker 1: she insists on saying Merry Christmas, even in July, and
Speaker 1: every time she opens her mouth, every single time she speaks,
Speaker 1: you can see why the Trump crowd loves her. As governor,
Speaker 1: I would issue a declaration of invasion finished President Trump's squall,
Speaker 1: blow up the cartel's drug tunnels and surveillance drones, and
Speaker 1: deploy the Arizona National Guard to stop illegals from entering.
Speaker 1: Between anti American history that's being taught inappropriate sex education
Speaker 1: and the racist critical race theory, or as I like
Speaker 1: to refer to it, all woke curriculum. It is teaching
Speaker 1: our children hatred. It's time to take a sledge hammer
Speaker 1: to the mainstream media's lies and propaganda. During Pride Month,
Speaker 1: Lay tweeted, they kicked God out of schools and welcomed
Speaker 1: the drag queens. They took down our flank and replaced
Speaker 1: it with the rainbow. Katie Hobbs thinks there are different genders.
Speaker 1: Why don't you go out and try to milk a
Speaker 1: ball and tell me how that goes. GOP strategists say
Speaker 1: she's taking Trump's message and morphing it into her own.
Speaker 1: You can call me Trump in address any day. No, no,
Speaker 1: why didn't she say that? Now I'm picturing a Trump
Speaker 1: in address. I didn't want that image in my head.
Speaker 1: I can see it now. The balls are just dangling
Speaker 1: in the breeze. Look like two tiny mandarins. Uh oh,
Speaker 1: and each one has a comb over. Why didn't say that? Why?
Speaker 1: But yeah, as you can see, carry Lake is full
Speaker 1: on magarific. She hates illegal immigrants, drag queens, and the
Speaker 1: mainstream media. I mean, did you see how she just
Speaker 1: smashed the ship out of those TVs, which, for some reason,
Speaker 1: all from thirty years ago? Already? Why are why are
Speaker 1: those TVs are old? But? Is her whole campaign just
Speaker 1: an excuse to clean out her garage? Big government? It's
Speaker 1: just like these this lawnmower that I no longer need. Yeah. Also,
Speaker 1: for the record, if you disagree with what you see
Speaker 1: on one channel, you don't have to sledge hammer the
Speaker 1: whole TV. You can just change the channel to something different.
Speaker 1: We have that technology now, it's the future. Now. If
Speaker 1: you've only been following her for this election, you might
Speaker 1: think she's your standard right wing Republican. You know Maga,
Speaker 1: this hang, Mike Pence, that normal stuff. But what makes
Speaker 1: Carry lake story fascinating is not who she is, but
Speaker 1: who she used to be. Carry Lake used to be
Speaker 1: known in Arizona as a charismatic newscaster. He's a lion.
Speaker 1: Hear him roar a staple on Phoenix TVs for more
Speaker 1: than two decades. Just over a decade ago, she was
Speaker 1: an Obama donor. Her friends described her as liberal, and
Speaker 1: yet you saw her shipped slowly and gradual over the
Speaker 1: last decade. In several of her friends would say she
Speaker 1: found Trump to be funny and defended his craftness. She
Speaker 1: began spreading internet conspiracy theories you can take the hydro
Speaker 1: hydroxychlora quinn as a preventative. Although Lake has criticized drag queens,
Speaker 1: she was friends with a popular local drag queen for
Speaker 1: twenty years and often went to his drag shows. Yeah
Speaker 1: believe it or not, Carry Lake went from being a
Speaker 1: popular local newscosta to hating the media. She was personal
Speaker 1: friends with a drag queen and now she says that
Speaker 1: there were dangerous to children. Plus she was a donut
Speaker 1: to Barack Obama's campaign. Adonna and now she rolls with
Speaker 1: the guy who thinks Obama isn't even American. Like I've
Speaker 1: heard of people being open to change, but this is
Speaker 1: this is almost not the same person. Like I wouldn't
Speaker 1: be shocked if we found out that the real Carry
Speaker 1: Lake is locked up in a basement somewhere while this
Speaker 1: maga alien pretends to be her, because because this is
Speaker 1: a bigger transformation than the drag queens that she suddenly hates, which,
Speaker 1: by the way, it's particularly shitty. It's already horrible to
Speaker 1: turn on any friend, but betraying the one who taught
Speaker 1: you how to get your contouring on point that is unforgivable.
Speaker 1: And you know, over the past few years, over the
Speaker 1: past few years, this seems to have happened to a
Speaker 1: lot of people, Like everywhere, everyone has a story about this.
Speaker 1: They used to be normal, living a chilled life. But
Speaker 1: then they clicked on the wrong Facebook post and they
Speaker 1: got sucked in by a few YouTube videos and the
Speaker 1: next thing you know, they believe the care Bears are
Speaker 1: actually a democratic sex cult that's going to penetrate your
Speaker 1: children with rainbows. And while she sounds just like Trump
Speaker 1: on most issues, there's one thing Kerry Lake has in
Speaker 1: common with Trump that is especially dangerous. And I'm not
Speaker 1: talking about a friendship bracelet with Kim Jong. Oh No, no, no,
Speaker 1: I'm talking about her refusal to take an election. L
Speaker 1: anybody who was involved in that corrupt, shady, shoddy election
Speaker 1: of lock them up, No more stolen elections. We have
Speaker 1: this illegitimate president Biden. We will no longer accept rigged elections.
Speaker 1: Who's with me on that? You've said that you think
Speaker 1: Trump won Arizona? Do you still believe that? I believe
Speaker 1: Biden is the president, just like o J is innocent,
Speaker 1: the system is corrupt in Arizona. The Republican candidate for
Speaker 1: governor is refusing to say whether she'll accept the results
Speaker 1: of the upcoming election if she loses. Will you accept
Speaker 1: the results of your election in November. I'm going to
Speaker 1: win the election and I will accept that result. If
Speaker 1: you lose, will you accept that I'm gonna win the
Speaker 1: election and I will accept that result. I'm gonna win
Speaker 1: the election and I will accept that results. I'm gonna
Speaker 1: win the election election and I will accept that results.
Speaker 1: You realize, thanks to Trump, every Republican running for office
Speaker 1: now it is just like a winey little kid who
Speaker 1: refuses to lose a board game. All right. They used
Speaker 1: to be like, we are the Party of Personal Responsibility,
Speaker 1: and it was like, well, it looks like you you
Speaker 1: lost the election. Do you take responsibility for that? It's
Speaker 1: not my fault. They were stolen. I'm your governor. And
Speaker 1: by the way, by the way, it's ridiculous to compare
Speaker 1: Trump's election lost to o J's murders. Right. I mean,
Speaker 1: for one thing, o J had a much better legal team,
Speaker 1: and also that was the system doing its thing. But
Speaker 1: maybe maybe you think carry Lake's election denials don't sarned you.
Speaker 1: You know, maybe you're thinking, hey, I don't live in
Speaker 1: Arizona travel the only issue that affects me there is
Speaker 1: whether the tea stage. But you'd be wrong, because you see,
Speaker 1: Arizona isn't just where your aunt gets all her turquoise jewelry. No,
Speaker 1: it's also a key swing states that helped push Joe
Speaker 1: Biden over the top in and if Carrie Lake becomes governor,
Speaker 1: she could have the final say over who wins it.
Speaker 1: And it doesn't sound like she's going to be shy
Speaker 1: about getting the result that she wants. In the last
Speaker 1: twenty four hours you said the election was stolen. Would
Speaker 1: you have certified Arizona's results? Hell, would you be willing
Speaker 1: to put the country into position potentially of a constitutional
Speaker 1: crisis by not certifying Arizona's results? If you're a governor,
Speaker 1: that come down, I think. Let me ask you, Van,
Speaker 1: would you certify a crooked corrupt election? Would you certify
Speaker 1: a crooked corrupt election just to make peace? Yes? No,
Speaker 1: that's not how I operate. You know, things aren't looking
Speaker 1: good when the future of your democracy is being decided
Speaker 1: in the home depot parking lots. Ll just think about it.
Speaker 1: Think about what carry Lake is saying. She's saying that
Speaker 1: if the election in is stolen for Biden the same
Speaker 1: way the last election was stolen for Biden, then she's
Speaker 1: not going to approve the results, and that would be chaos.
Speaker 1: I could throw America into a constitutional crisis like it's
Speaker 1: never seen before. Who knows, maybe even another civil war,
Speaker 1: which is bullshit. Think about it. Some local news cost
Speaker 1: that gets way into too into Trump fan fiction, and
Speaker 1: now I've got to grow up mutton chops. I mean,
Speaker 1: can I pull it off? Yeah, but it's got to
Speaker 1: be for the right reasons and I know you might
Speaker 1: be saying, all relaxed Trump, try to do a cool
Speaker 1: past time, and it didn't work. Yet the only reason
Speaker 1: it didn't work is because they were various Republicans in
Speaker 1: key positions who didn't go along with it. But if
Speaker 1: those people get replaced by people like Carry Lake, it's
Speaker 1: a whole different story, because you see, you don't need
Speaker 1: to storm the capital when your friends have the keys.
Speaker 1: The mid terms, you know that time of the year
Speaker 1: when your baby is at the highest risk of being
Speaker 1: kissed by Ted Cruz. There was a major debate last
Speaker 1: night that could change everything, and we'll tell you all
Speaker 1: about it in our ongoing coverage of Vote Demock. The
Speaker 1: big question leading up to election day right now is
Speaker 1: who will control the Senate when the dust settles, And
Speaker 1: with so many close races around the country, it could
Speaker 1: still go either way. But a pivotal moment may have
Speaker 1: occurred last night at a debate in Pennsylvania. On one
Speaker 1: side of this neck and neck race, you have Democrat
Speaker 1: John Federman Lieutenant Governor and Bounce a on the sets
Speaker 1: of Jerry Springer, And on the Republican side you have
Speaker 1: doctor Oz. Not to be confused with the Wizard of Oz,
Speaker 1: who also lived in a mansion that wasn't in Pennsylvania.
Speaker 1: After securing the Republican nomination, doctor Oz has been trying
Speaker 1: to distance himself from the Maga side of the force
Speaker 1: and reposition himself as a bipartisan voice of reason to
Speaker 1: try and scoop up all the centrist voters on election day.
Speaker 1: You know, he's basically doing that that TikTok thing where
Speaker 1: you flip your head down and then when you come
Speaker 1: up you act like you suddenly didn't want to hang
Speaker 1: myke pants, you know that thing. But here's the thing,
Speaker 1: here's the thing. Being pro Trump and pro reasonable is
Speaker 1: a lot harder than people think, which was apparent when
Speaker 1: doctor Oz had to explain his position on abortion. Should
Speaker 1: abortion be banned in America? Sixty seconds? There should not
Speaker 1: be involved in from the federal government and how states
Speaker 1: decide their abortion decisions. As a physician, I've been in
Speaker 1: the room when there's some difficult conversations happening. I don't
Speaker 1: want the federal government involved with that at all. I
Speaker 1: want women, doctors, local political leaders, letting the democracy that's
Speaker 1: always allowed our nation to thrive to put the best
Speaker 1: ideas forward. So states can decide for themselves. Oh yeah,
Speaker 1: that's right. Dr Oz said abortion rights should be decided
Speaker 1: by women and their doctors and local political leaders, which
Speaker 1: was pretty slick, right like I did, because he started
Speaker 1: that sentence like he was on the side of women
Speaker 1: when he snuck in the politicians at the end like
Speaker 1: a teenager buying condoms at a gas station. He was like,
Speaker 1: let me get those cheetos and the root beer and
Speaker 1: you can get the terms, and we're gonna get a
Speaker 1: deserved out of back. Because let's be honest, if your
Speaker 1: pro choice what doctor Oz is suggesting is bullshits, right,
Speaker 1: I think we can all agree there is only one
Speaker 1: politician who should have a say in your abortion and
Speaker 1: that's Hercial Walker, because it's his, it's his, it's probably his.
Speaker 1: Ladies check they're all his now. Unfortunately, the Democrats couldn't
Speaker 1: exactly take a victory lap off the Dr Oz's performance
Speaker 1: at the debate because it was their own guy who
Speaker 1: was getting most of the attention. Lieutenant Governor John Fetterman
Speaker 1: started off the hour long debate assuring voters he's still
Speaker 1: capable of doing the job of senator five months after
Speaker 1: having a stroke. Let's also talk about the elephant in
Speaker 1: the room. I had a stroke. He's never let me
Speaker 1: forget that. I might miss some words during this debate,
Speaker 1: two words together. But it knocked me down, and I'm
Speaker 1: gonna keep coming back up. Fetterman's use of a closed
Speaker 1: captioning device during the debate, where he read questions in
Speaker 1: real time on a screen above the moderator's sparked debate
Speaker 1: on social media, with some observers seeing a strong performance
Speaker 1: a mid recovery, while others cast him his unsteady Federman
Speaker 1: especially lost his putting on the subject of fracking when
Speaker 1: questioned about interview where he said he would never support
Speaker 1: the industry versus his current position supporting fracking. I do
Speaker 1: support fracking, and I don't. I don't. I support fracking
Speaker 1: and I stand and I do support fracking. You know,
Speaker 1: what's interesting to see is how people have reacted to
Speaker 1: this clip, because on the one hand, obviously that was
Speaker 1: a part of the debate that tripped him up, because
Speaker 1: he has had a shaky record on whether he's four
Speaker 1: or against the fracking, but also beyond that, people wondering
Speaker 1: about the stroke, and it was interesting to see if
Speaker 1: people support him, they're seeing a guy who's overcoming a
Speaker 1: temporary disability. But the people who are against him see
Speaker 1: a guy who's not mentally fit to be senator. And
Speaker 1: I guess because of polarization. It's like that with everything
Speaker 1: these days, you know, everyone seeing the world from two
Speaker 1: different sides. Like if you're a die hard Christmas lover,
Speaker 1: you hate the Grinch, But if you don't like Christmas,
Speaker 1: then yeah, he's extremely faible and you smash. Everything is subjective.
Speaker 1: Everything look at that mouth. And I personally feel bad
Speaker 1: for John Federman though, because he had a stroke, and
Speaker 1: on top of that, after the debate, dr Oz trying
Speaker 1: to sell him a supplement that would cure him for
Speaker 1: and I you know, if you ask me, I don't
Speaker 1: know why Federman ever admitted to having a stroke. This
Speaker 1: is American politics, and he could have just done whatever
Speaker 1: he wanted, Like he's running for the sentence of Pennsylvania.
Speaker 1: He could have just showed up to the bed and
Speaker 1: be like, sorry for my words, everyone, I'm drunk. If
Speaker 1: I asked, the entire state would have been like, hell, yeah, man, savior,
Speaker 1: go Phillies. Yeah, I love this guy. But the truth is,
Speaker 1: Fetterman's limitations right now are just something voters will have
Speaker 1: to consider when they make their choice, like maybe they
Speaker 1: don't care whether Federman is capable of debating. Maybe voters
Speaker 1: prefer his policies, or maybe they just want a senator
Speaker 1: who can block the door the next time it's getting
Speaker 1: storn by riots. Is that could be very useful? So
Speaker 1: all up to them. While China is spreading around the
Speaker 1: world in secret, there's an even biggest superpower who just
Speaker 1: announced her plan to dominate the globe. Fans of superstar
Speaker 1: singer Rihanna have been clamoring for new music from her
Speaker 1: for years, and now it appears their weight is almost over.
Speaker 1: Rihanna shared a fifteen second teaser on Twitter of our
Speaker 1: new single titled Lift Me Up. It's for the upcoming
Speaker 1: Black Panther movie Waconda Forever. This marks Rihanna's first single
Speaker 1: as a lead artist in six long years. For her fans,
Speaker 1: Thank you, Thank you, Jesus. Brianna's releasing new music, and
Speaker 1: on top of that, her song is going to be
Speaker 1: part of the new Black Panther movie. Are you kidding fair?
Speaker 1: That's gonna be so great? I mean it's gonna be
Speaker 1: great for us. It won't be great for the Wakandans
Speaker 1: because it's gonna be hard to concentrate on fighting the
Speaker 1: bad guys when a Rihanna song starts playing and it's
Speaker 1: gonna be like it time to defend our Oh surely
Speaker 1: are you hearing this right now? Are you getting this?
Speaker 1: Do you understand how big this is? Rihanna plus Black
Speaker 1: Panther What I haven't experienced this much Black joy since
Speaker 1: since that time Obama featured on that Cardy B track.
Speaker 1: Oh man, it was just like what wrap wrap That's right,
Speaker 1: I'll tell you what makes my pussy went voting. Vote everybody,
Speaker 1: vote what I will say, though I would say, you
Speaker 1: gotta admit Rihanna is keeping us thirsty. We've been all begging.
Speaker 1: We've been begging for an album for six years, and
Speaker 1: now she's like, okay, okay, I'll give you one song
Speaker 1: and we're like, thank you, thank you, Just one's before
Speaker 1: we go. I wanted to remind you that peaceful protests
Speaker 1: in Iran are risking their lives to be heard right now.
