Speaker 1: You're listening to Comedy Central.
Speaker 2: From the most trusted journalists at Comedy Central, It's America's
Speaker 2: only sorts for news.
Speaker 3: This here's the Daily Joke with your host Ronnie fah.
Speaker 4: Welcome, I'm Ronnie Shang.
Speaker 5: We got so much to talk about tonight. Christy Nolan
Speaker 5: fails a pop quiz, The FBI wants you a shut
Speaker 5: up about Jeffrey Epstein already, And while you were stuck
Speaker 5: at the airport, Sean Duffy did some redecorating. So let's
Speaker 5: check in with the best cabinant ever in another installment
Speaker 5: of The Worst Wing.
Speaker 1: What a bunch of losers.
Speaker 5: Let's start with Christy Nolan, Secretary of Homeland Security and
Speaker 5: one woman kill Shelter. She's in charge of the country's
Speaker 5: pathway the citizenship, which for hundreds of years has been
Speaker 5: a solemn, dignified process for achieving the American dream. But
Speaker 5: what if instead it was tacky and gross.
Speaker 6: A surreal report that could turn immigration into a TV show.
Speaker 6: The Trump administration says it's in the very beginning stages
Speaker 6: of the vetting process for a reported immigrant reality TV
Speaker 6: show where immigrants would compete to prove they are the
Speaker 6: most American with a chance to win US citizenship.
Speaker 5: A reality TV show for a citizenship is somehow the
Speaker 5: most Unamerican and most American thing I've ever heard of,
Speaker 5: although we already have a contest to prove who's the
Speaker 5: most American, and it's called the Nathan's Hotdog Eating Contest.
Speaker 5: What's more American than eating until your colon explodes and
Speaker 5: then going bankrupt from medical bills. But let me be clear,
Speaker 5: I hate this idea unless they're looking for a host,
Speaker 5: then I love this idea, and I'm available on fighters
Speaker 5: I I will say it might be a nice little
Speaker 5: way to get deported instead of ICE agents disappearing you
Speaker 5: up in unmarked vehicles. Ryan Seacrest walks into your living
Speaker 5: room with a TV crew and is like, Carlos, we're
Speaker 5: taking you out of the USA. But meanwhile, Christine Nolan
Speaker 5: was testifying in Congress today about whether her administration is
Speaker 5: deporting people without habeas corpus, which is their right to
Speaker 5: do process. If you didn't know what hapeos corpus was,
Speaker 5: don't worry, Christy Norman didn't google it either.
Speaker 3: What is habeas corpus?
Speaker 7: Well, habeas corpus is a constitutional right that the president
Speaker 7: has to be able to remove people from this country.
Speaker 7: Let's spend there, right, let me let me stop man
Speaker 7: spend the corpus.
Speaker 1: Excuse me, that's that's incorrect.
Speaker 3: Okay.
Speaker 5: Look, if Christy Norman was just a random person on
Speaker 5: the street, I get it. If she was like Hapeo's corpus,
Speaker 5: that's that's a Harry Potter spell, right, makes you invisible.
Speaker 5: But the second term Homeland Security should know that hapeas
Speaker 5: corpus prevents the president from deporting you without due process,
Speaker 5: not that it lets the president deport you without due process.
Speaker 5: That's the opposite of what it means. And I didn't
Speaker 5: know you could have dyslexia for laws either way. Nome
Speaker 5: withd hod on that question. But unfortunately for her, the
Speaker 5: quiz was just beginning.
Speaker 8: Do you know what section of the Constitution the suspension
Speaker 8: clause of habeas corpus?
Speaker 3: Do not you know which article it is in?
Speaker 9: No?
Speaker 7: I do not, sir, Okay, well it is in one.
Speaker 5: It wasn't one. It was the first. You didn't even
Speaker 5: read the first one.
Speaker 3: So can you stop? We get it?
Speaker 5: Okay, stop asking her how the questions like how would
Speaker 5: senators like it if Christine Nom asked you questions that
Speaker 5: she was an expert in huh, hey, Senator Kim, do
Speaker 5: you know how to trick a puppy into walking into
Speaker 5: an open grave?
Speaker 3: No? Not so smart? Now are you.
Speaker 5: Anyway? Christine Nome, you still don't know the basics of
Speaker 5: American law. So I'm sorry to say, we're gonna have
Speaker 5: to take you out of USA.
Speaker 1: But luckily.
Speaker 5: Won them back after the dog killing jokes. But luckily
Speaker 5: for America, Christie Nome isn't the only one in charge
Speaker 5: of keeping the country safe. We also got Cash Betel
Speaker 5: and Dan Geno, two guys who look like they should
Speaker 5: be henchmen in a Ninja Turtles movie.
Speaker 3: But somehow running the FBI.
Speaker 5: Now and before he took over, Dan Bongino wasn't afraid
Speaker 5: to tell us the truth about what the FBI was
Speaker 5: covering up.
Speaker 9: Nobody knows how much material people have on Jeffrey Epstein.
Speaker 1: It's unbelievable.
Speaker 3: The guy killed himself and now nobody's.
Speaker 5: Gonna know, yeah, exactly Epstein killed himself. Bongino knows the truth,
Speaker 5: and now he and Cash Patel get to see all
Speaker 5: the fouls. So on Sunday they sat down for an
Speaker 5: interview to tell us what really happened, because we know
Speaker 5: Epstein didn't just kill himself.
Speaker 3: They killed himself.
Speaker 5: What he killed himself without air quotes. That is the
Speaker 5: tray easiest thing I've ever heard. All Right, I was
Speaker 5: a single issue voter on this. Why did you change
Speaker 5: your mind as a public defender, as a prosecutor, who's
Speaker 5: been in that prison system, who's been in.
Speaker 6: The Metropolitan Detention Center, who's been in segregated housing.
Speaker 5: You know a suicide when you see one, and that's
Speaker 5: what that was.
Speaker 3: Again, you want me to get I've seen the whole file.
Speaker 3: He killed himself.
Speaker 5: I've never seen someone so sad that the deep state
Speaker 5: didn't kill someone else. And also, hey, you can't talk
Speaker 5: so much shit about how the deep state did this
Speaker 5: and make it your entire personality.
Speaker 3: And then now you're in it and you're.
Speaker 5: Like just shrugging off, like, oh, yeah, I guess all
Speaker 5: right the first time they investigated this. Hey, if you
Speaker 5: fail that hot, you gotta let Hillary Clinton kill you, right.
Speaker 5: And finally, yeah, I don't know what we're charing for.
Speaker 5: And finally, let's talk about the Department of Transportation. Recently
Speaker 5: and travel in America has become what's known in the
Speaker 5: industry as totally fit. And I'm sure Secretary of Sean
Speaker 5: Duffy has been working on a great plan to fix it.
Speaker 10: We are moving Jesus out of the basement.
Speaker 5: What well is that the new air traffic controller, because
Speaker 5: that's what we need right now.
Speaker 10: To all the great mindshipment at the Merchant Marine Academy,
Speaker 10: you let me know how important this painting was to
Speaker 10: all of you. Now we all know he was taken
Speaker 10: out of a place of prominence and putting down in
Speaker 10: the basement. I worked with the Academy, and because this
Speaker 10: is such a historic painting, I'm announcing that through that
Speaker 10: work with the Academy, this painting is going to go
Speaker 10: from the basement back to its place of prominence. It'll
Speaker 10: be a moment to celebrate.
Speaker 5: Oh thank God, No, no, no, thank God, Because when
Speaker 5: my plane is going down, I can tell the person
Speaker 5: next to me, don't worry, that's a shitty Jesus painting
Speaker 5: is upstairs at the Merchant Marine Academy. Now for more
Speaker 5: on the return of the Jesus painting, Let's go live
Speaker 5: to the painting. And here from the King of Kings himself,
Speaker 5: Jesus Christ.
Speaker 1: Hello, my child.
Speaker 3: Wait, hang on, Jesus, you're white.

Speaker 5: Eastern or something.

Speaker 11: this particular one gets me through airport security.
Speaker 3: Pastor well, of course.
Speaker 5: But oh hey, your majesty Sean Duffy is taking you
Speaker 5: out of the basement. I mean you gotta be happy
Speaker 5: about that.
Speaker 3: No, no, I'm not happy about it.

Speaker 11: Planes are falling out of the sky, boats are crashing
Speaker 11: into the Brooklyn Bridge Newark Airport killed itself.
Speaker 5: I mean.
Speaker 11: Not to brag, but when I was on Earth, we
Speaker 11: had zero plane crashes.
Speaker 5: Yeah. I guess that's technically true. But hey, at least
Speaker 5: you can be seen by more people in this historic painting.
Speaker 11: This shitty painting, the one that looks like it was
Speaker 11: made at a bachelorette party drinking drive. I've seen better
Speaker 11: portraits of myself on toast. Okay, you think that's how
Speaker 11: I want to be seen, hovering over a boat full
Speaker 11: of sailors. Hey, everybody, look, it's that famous painting Jesus

Speaker 3: You know, she always she.
Speaker 5: Never once judged me. Let's just put it this way, which,
Speaker 5: by way, it wasn't that. You know, white people watch
Speaker 5: this and there like that's normal, but way.
Speaker 3: In Nepal. Yeah, but I say that it was a
Speaker 3: It was a big deal for her.
Speaker 5: To be like that. For you and you want the
Speaker 5: typical kid.
Speaker 3: I wasn't.
Speaker 8: I wasn't an incredibly effeminate kid that I loved dressing
Speaker 8: up in my sister's clothes, and my mom was like,
Speaker 8: you know, and I asked her recently, why did you
Speaker 8: allow me? And she said, you know, I looked at
Speaker 8: your face and the joy that you had.
Speaker 3: I could not deny it. And she was like, you know,
Speaker 3: and yes, that's how I feel over yeah, exactly. I
Speaker 3: love you all for that. Every page of the book.
Speaker 8: That that what you just felt. That's every page of
Speaker 8: this book. And yes, you know what, guess what. I
Speaker 8: also talked to my mom every morning. You know, she
Speaker 8: lives in Nepal and New York. Right now, she's in Nepal,
Speaker 8: so I'll talk to her.
Speaker 3: I'll call her. Sometimes it's a deep conversation, sometimes just
Speaker 3: like you know, what do you eat?
Speaker 8: But my mother is someone who is looking at her,
Speaker 8: watching her, you know, the raising us like my siblings
Speaker 8: and I alone in single handedly and then with such
Speaker 8: elegance and such, you know, like I would unbout and
Speaker 8: and apologetically was my first you know, lesson in elegance
Speaker 8: and resilience. And I always keep on saying this watching her,
Speaker 8: I realize, you know, elegance is not a posture.
Speaker 3: It's a practice. You know it was, So is it
Speaker 3: too heavy for you?
Speaker 5: No?
Speaker 3: I'm trying, just should I should I should? I should?
Speaker 3: I just bring it down. So basically, Ronnie, you know,
Speaker 3: so it's a mom good or not? Mom good or bad?
Speaker 5: That's all.
Speaker 3: What what's better than this? It's phenomenal, it's great. Okay,
Speaker 3: we get it. You love your mom, she looks back.
Speaker 3: You don't love your mom. I love my mom, Joe,
Speaker 3: I love my mom. I just not need a brag
Speaker 3: about it every five seconds.
Speaker 5: You have to meet my mother.
Speaker 3: Any of my friends have met, and she's amazing, she's great.
Speaker 3: You love her? Yeah, yeah, but that that I believe
Speaker 3: this is sarch to my Mother's Day, Like, oh, but
Speaker 3: what is Mother's Day? I'm just kidding.

Speaker 5: Mother's Day. Yeah, that's like one American.
Speaker 3: You wish your mom.
Speaker 5: I wish her for everyone a couple of the bases.
Speaker 5: But I mean it's because you bring her up in
Speaker 5: the book. I mean, I'm joking. It's not every single page,
Speaker 5: but she's definitely a recurring theme. She gets the strength,
Speaker 5: she keeps coming into the story, and even now talking
Speaker 5: to you can't shut up about her.
Speaker 3: So yeah, yeah, she No, she is the spine behind
Speaker 3: my back.
Speaker 8: She's she's the one the reason why I'm here, and
Speaker 8: this is she's also one of the she's she's the
Speaker 8: person who convinced me to come here.
Speaker 5: So yeah, that's great.
Speaker 3: I wouldn't you know, here's the thing I could.
Speaker 5: I could talk to you forever because you've got such
Speaker 5: an amazing story. I'm trying to get out some gems
Speaker 5: for people to so so I'll just speed round through
Speaker 5: the shirt. So, like, what would you say to young
Speaker 5: fashion designers now who are trying to enter the industry now, not.
Speaker 8: Just fashion designers, to anyone, I would just say, just
Speaker 8: don't worry about the boxes.
Speaker 3: You know, in the world that's obsessed.
Speaker 8: With applause and we who's continues in needing validations. If
Speaker 8: you can love yourself without it, that's the first step,
Speaker 8: because in that freedom, there's a liberation, right. So I
Speaker 8: would say, don't worry about what people say. Just do
Speaker 8: what you make mistakes, do what you want, and be.
Speaker 3: Curious and read. That's all I would say. Yeah, Oh,
Speaker 3: don't applaud that he said, don't applaud that he said.
Speaker 5: Don't know, he doesn't need a validation, he doesn't need validation.
Speaker 3: And no, but when they hear the truth. People should
Speaker 3: be people.
Speaker 5: And I want to ask you a cree because you
Speaker 5: were kind of in New York City at the kind
Speaker 5: of peak of high fashion in New York. It was
Speaker 5: the nineties. Yes, it was crazy. Vanity Fair was the
Speaker 5: Party's meant sound cards. Yeah, there was no internet really
Speaker 5: there was like maybe a blog or you know, like
Speaker 5: no not really Okay, well well right, yeah, so what
Speaker 5: was what was the fashion world like then? Competitivet Now?
Speaker 5: How has it changed? You know, I know it's a
Speaker 5: broad question, but yeah.
Speaker 3: I mean it's changed.
Speaker 8: You know, in the nineties when or early two thousand,
Speaker 8: it was very I would say, like experimental.
Speaker 3: They were like a lot of like artists.
Speaker 8: I live around East Religion Lower East Side to there
Speaker 8: was like, oh, I'll never forget the first time I
Speaker 8: went to Cafe j Town. I sat there and I
Speaker 8: was like, you know, writing something.
Speaker 3: I looked over. It was David Bowie, you know. It
Speaker 3: was it was like that you know, you'd want walk.
Speaker 8: Into that will be Chloe Sevin, there'll be Mark Chacos
Speaker 8: and all of a sudden there's someone you know, like
Speaker 8: it was just this.
Speaker 3: Oh.
Speaker 8: Another story I was just say is when I went
Speaker 8: to indushin one time. The first time I remember, it
Speaker 8: was Salman Rose Street, Patma, Lashmy and a and a
Speaker 8: porn star in the other table, you know, And to
Speaker 8: me that was like, that's exactly what New York is.
Speaker 3: And the fashion was so like kind of whoa, sorry, sorry.
Speaker 5: How did you know a porn star?
Speaker 3: Because because it was before internet.
Speaker 8: So you know, because because he was dating a friend
Speaker 8: of mine.
Speaker 3: That's how I know your friend told you. Yeah, and
Speaker 3: so that it was magic because magic in the area.
Speaker 8: It was magic magic, it was magical, experimental it was
Speaker 8: and now it's not what it is it is now.
Speaker 8: I think at that time I would say it was you,
Speaker 8: you know, you kind of dress up for yourself and
Speaker 8: obviously for your friends and everything. Now you're dressing up
Speaker 8: for everyone on Internet, so you kind of lose their identity.
Speaker 3: And that's bad, right, That's that's not great.
Speaker 8: I mean, I think anytime you need outside validation constantly
Speaker 8: that you can't exist without it, then it's bad. But
Speaker 8: sometimes just to just to you know, play around with people,
Speaker 8: that's fine.
Speaker 5: Yeah, So what is the advantage You would say that
Speaker 5: the fashion has now over in the nineties, the industry,
Speaker 5: I will.
Speaker 8: Say for I mean many downsides, some of the upsides
Speaker 8: fashion and culture. You and I wouldn't be sitting like this.
Speaker 8: The people who how we look willn't be here in fashion. Also,
Speaker 8: it has completely expanded the idea of beauty. Who gets
Speaker 8: to be on a runway, the sizes, the race.
Speaker 3: You know, and that's what it is.
Speaker 8: So while yes, while we can sit down and talk
Speaker 8: about again, there's a lot of issues about it, what
Speaker 8: I'm trying to look at is like the progress that
Speaker 8: it has made. Obviously we have a long way to go.
Speaker 8: There would be no conversation abouts the curving models or
Speaker 8: like I remember, I remember when I was working at Blast,
Speaker 8: it used to be like, oh, you have one model too,
Speaker 8: black models, that's enough.
Speaker 3: Now you don't even talk like that right now. Now
Speaker 3: it's just like you do. You don't think about it.
Speaker 5: I don't know if you heard the President, but that
Speaker 5: that stuff is over now we can't.
Speaker 8: Yeah, I'm talking about fashion people, yeah, who are the
Speaker 8: smartest sometimes yeah.
Speaker 5: So now so I guess it's for all the downsides
Speaker 5: of all these stupid influencers doing stuff for likes.
Speaker 3: There's still no that's job. That's that's the job.
Speaker 8: It's I don't think a lot of influencers are my friends.
Speaker 3: I'm sorry, No, I don't think.
Speaker 8: They're stupid, okay, and I think I think they are
Speaker 8: really smart people. And because it's business, it's different kind
Speaker 8: of business.
Speaker 5: Yeah, so it's kind of taken away from the gatekeepers
Speaker 5: a little bit back in the day, right, Yeah.
Speaker 8: But then what happens is when fashion should always be democratic,
Speaker 8: you're allowed to a housewife in you know, let's a
Speaker 8: Minnesota can be looking at a red carpet on met
Speaker 8: Galan and be like, you know what, I don't like it.
Speaker 8: I like it, I'll never wear You're participating. That's why
Speaker 8: fashion is amazing, you know. But then within that you
Speaker 8: start to find.
Speaker 3: Your own niche, you start your own world.
Speaker 8: And you know, high fashion is high fashion because it's
Speaker 8: it's all hype and it's also a lot of craft
Speaker 8: in there.
Speaker 3: But you know, fashion is for everyone. That's what we're
Speaker 3: living in right now.
Speaker 5: Well that's a very cut down to a way to
Speaker 5: look at high fashion, and that's something I really like about.
Speaker 5: You can you can go from you know, high the
Speaker 5: highest of all high fashion, the Megala, and you can
Speaker 5: come and have road tight coffee with me in Malaysia
Speaker 5: and we can both hang out.
Speaker 3: How generous am I? But I just want dude, I'm
Speaker 3: so sorry because my because if you just end every
Speaker 3: story with that, I don't know. You don't think I'm
Speaker 3: going to do.
Speaker 5: I'll talk about my mom? Yeah me too, Yeah me too. Look,
Speaker 5: I'm trying to compress so much in I'm s obviously
Speaker 5: the rush, but I want people to see the your
Speaker 5: your genius. Sometimes it's hard to see creativity and action.
Speaker 5: The best way I know how to represent is if
Speaker 5: I give you some photos and you kind of illustrate
Speaker 5: for us kind of your your ideas, your thoughts, these
Speaker 5: on this fashion trying.
Speaker 3: This is your this is your okay, all right, so
Speaker 3: what do you want me to talk about it?
Speaker 12: So?
Speaker 5: This is your This is Tessa Thompson at the McGowan.
Speaker 5: This is your dress, yes, that you made and we
Speaker 5: would call it an on thomb.
Speaker 8: I'm sorry it's an on thomb because it is there's
Speaker 8: a white halter cotton mini dress underneath and this is
Speaker 8: like a silk wool you know, pannier.
Speaker 5: Did your mom make this too?
Speaker 3: It was? It was inspired by her?
Speaker 5: Okay, So what what can you just draw? As though
Speaker 5: you make people think like you're doing something cool on it. Yeah, okay, yeah,
Speaker 5: So what the influences for this, Like what were some.
Speaker 8: Of the So the influence of the super fine tailoring
Speaker 8: was the theme this year, and I kind of wanted
Speaker 8: to take someone like Tessa who was really experiments with
Speaker 8: her role and film and everything and also in fashion
Speaker 8: and kind of like take and abstract.
Speaker 3: The men's were aspect of fit.
Speaker 8: You know, and just so that's why, like, if you
Speaker 8: look at it, this is a very traditional succeed to
Speaker 8: like traditional toucceedo.
Speaker 3: Year, all of these right, this whole area.
Speaker 8: And then then we kind of like you know, paired
Speaker 8: it with like something that's an old school pannier, like
Speaker 8: those like petticoats, right, so we did that. It's almost
Speaker 8: an eight, which is a good lucky number for me anyway.
Speaker 8: And then and then then this is like a latex tie,
Speaker 8: you know, there's like a little bit subversion that I
Speaker 8: always like. And the back is completely open and the
Speaker 8: you can't really see it. You actually can see this
Speaker 8: all handstitch this.
