Speaker 1: You're listening to Comedy Central, Holy.
Speaker 2: City, It's the Soul, It's The Daily Show with your
Speaker 2: home Daisy Light, Welcome to.
Speaker 3: The Daily Show.
Speaker 4: I'm Dodie Lighting and I am back for night three
Speaker 4: and hosting Baby. To all the female viewers, I want
Speaker 4: to say thank you. To all the male viewers, I
Speaker 4: want to say, ha ha, you're.
Speaker 5: Watching a girl, so that makes you gay.
Speaker 6: We got a great Jeffrey tonight. Jamila Jamil is here.
Speaker 4: We got a lot to talk about, so let's get
Speaker 4: into the headline. Let's kick things off with Tucker Carlson,
Speaker 4: the World's most unemployed boat show. No one's heard from
Speaker 4: Tucker since his surprise firing on Monday, except the pillow
Speaker 4: he's been screaming into.
Speaker 6: And it turns out there may be a good reason
Speaker 6: for that.
Speaker 4: Fox News executives reportedly have a dossier of dirt on him, Yeah,
Speaker 4: to keep him from attacking the network.
Speaker 6: That's right.
Speaker 4: They apparently have him saying the most vile things you
Speaker 4: can imagine, and the way they compiled it, and this
Speaker 4: is genius is by turning on his television show and
Speaker 4: pressing record.
Speaker 6: Very naked fock.
Speaker 4: Let's move on to some breaking news if you've been
Speaker 4: following Florida politics, you're weird. And also you know that
Speaker 4: Ron DeSantis has been attacking the Disney corporation for a
Speaker 4: year now, ever since Disney criticized his anti gay bill
Speaker 4: and also because they used his image for Quasimoto.
Speaker 6: Den Ringer.
Speaker 4: Well, now the fight has reached the courts. This morning,
Speaker 4: Disney sued Ron DeSantis, accusing him of political retaliation, which
Speaker 4: good news, good news, which sounds bad. But if they
Speaker 4: really wanted to form up, they'd slip his kid the
Speaker 4: Encanto soundtrack. As a parent, trust me, that can ruin
Speaker 4: your life. We don't talk about Bruno. How about we
Speaker 4: don't talk about giving you.
Speaker 6: Up for adoption. If you don't turn.
Speaker 4: That off, Let's move on to some entertainment news, because
Speaker 4: it was just revealed that Hugh Grant will star as
Speaker 4: an Umpa Lupa in the upcoming Willie Wonka movie Kind
Speaker 4: of fun. It kind of makes sense to have Oomploopa
Speaker 4: be a British dude. Have you ever gone to the
Speaker 4: beach with a Britisher? This is exactly what their skin.
Speaker 6: Looks like after now.
Speaker 4: And I just want to say, as a woman, it's
Speaker 4: nice to see a man age out of sexy roles
Speaker 4: for once.
Speaker 6: You know, yeah, way there.
Speaker 4: Listen, enjoy Timothy Shallamey while you can girls, because one
Speaker 4: day he'll be playing Gollum.
Speaker 6: I still hit that. Let's move on to.
Speaker 4: A lawsuit that's rocking the music world, although it involves
Speaker 4: Ed Sheeron, so maybe not so much rocking as keeping
Speaker 4: the music world entertained while shopping. Sharon, of course, isn't
Speaker 4: just Prince Harry with the job. He's also one of
Speaker 4: the most successful singer songwriters in the world, but now
Speaker 4: some people think that he got there by cheating.
Speaker 6: Now to Ed Sheeran in court defending his Grammy winning
Speaker 6: hit Thinking Out Loud, Cheran is accused of copying one
Speaker 6: of Marvin Gaye's biggest hits.
Speaker 7: The Family of Ed Townsend, Marvin Gay's co writer, accuses
Speaker 7: Sharon of copy the chord progression, rhythm, and other elements
Speaker 7: of Let's Get It On Here's Sharon's hit.
Speaker 6: Baby Man.
Speaker 7: Could Still Less Hard twenty.
Speaker 8: And Marvin Gaye.
Speaker 6: Sharon denies the allegations.
Speaker 4: His lawyers plan to defend him by showing that both
Speaker 4: songs are based on a common chord progression. I'm sorry
Speaker 4: this is ridiculous. It just because something sounds a little
Speaker 4: bit like something else, it doesn't mean it was stolen
Speaker 4: on purpose.
Speaker 6: I mean, four score and seven.
Speaker 4: Years ago, you never would have seen a lawsuit like this.
Speaker 4: I have a dream that someday these nuisance lawsuits.
Speaker 6: Will come to an end. Luke, I am your father.
Speaker 4: Look, if anyone should be suing ed Sharon, it's Elvis.
Speaker 4: I mean, stealing a black guy's music was his idea.
Speaker 4: Now that's copyright infringements.
Speaker 6: So I don't know.
Speaker 4: How this is all going to turn out. But if
Speaker 4: ed Sheeran was smart, he tried to move this Marvin
Speaker 4: Gay trial to Florida. They refuse to acknowledge anything gay there.
Speaker 4: And finally, some exciting news out of the world of science.
Speaker 4: Researchers are coming very close to answering one of mankind's
Speaker 4: biggest questions, where are the sharks boning?
Speaker 7: Great white sharks are among the most famous fish in
Speaker 7: the sea, but a key detail about their lives has
Speaker 7: remained a mystery for centuries. Researchers have been unable to
Speaker 7: find the place where they mate in the Atlantic Ocean. However,
Speaker 7: scientists may be on the verge of an answer.
Speaker 8: Chris fisher found it.
Speaker 9: Oh, search, they'll soon hit their goal of one hundred captures,
Speaker 9: tracking each one onlines.
Speaker 7: There's nine white shark populations around the world, and no
Speaker 7: one has ever identified a mating site.
Speaker 8: With centuries of people on the ocean. No one's ever
Speaker 8: documented this.
Speaker 6: Oh, this is foe hundred million year old secret.
Speaker 3: The ocean's not going to give it up.
Speaker 9: Easy.
Speaker 6: Hold on. Do sharks even have sex?
Speaker 4: I thought they just ejaculated on eggs like salmon or
Speaker 4: that Denny's.
Speaker 6: I don't go to anymore brand slamb.
Speaker 4: But still, this is a very important scientific discovery. If
Speaker 4: there's one thing I know about sharks, it's that if
Speaker 4: they stop, they die. Oh wait, no, that's Nick Cannon
Speaker 4: I'm thinking of. For more on this research being done
Speaker 4: by scientists, we turned to Michael Costa. Michael, you're out
Speaker 4: there on the ocean with the research team.
Speaker 6: Have you found the mating site yet?
Speaker 1: Not yet.
Speaker 10: You know, the sharks only go to the mating site
Speaker 10: if they want a mate, so we have to wait
Speaker 10: until they've reached sufficient levels of what scientists call shark horniness.
Speaker 10: We've tried to get the sharks in the mood by
Speaker 10: throwing rose petals in the water playing some Marvin Gay
Speaker 10: or Ed Sheeran. No one can tell the difference.
Speaker 4: But so far no luck, I see, I see. And
Speaker 4: what exactly is the scientific value of finding the shark
Speaker 4: mating site?
Speaker 10: Oh, it's incredibly valuable, DESI. If we can find the
Speaker 10: part of the ocean where the great whites mate, then
Speaker 10: researchers can place a camera down there, and then we
Speaker 10: get to watch.
Speaker 6: For research purposes.
Speaker 10: Not really, no, no, we just want to watch, ideally
Speaker 10: in one of those underwater cages, you know, just out
Speaker 10: of sight, but they know we're there. And once they
Speaker 10: really get going, if you turn your oxygen tank off
Speaker 10: at the exact right moment, then it really kicks it
Speaker 10: up and dash.
Speaker 4: Oh my god, Oh my god, Michael's that's gross. You
Speaker 4: guys only went there to watch these sharks have sex.
Speaker 10: Well not at first, but but they're being so secretive
Speaker 10: about their mating site.
Speaker 6: You know that now we gotta see it. If they're
Speaker 6: hiding it.
Speaker 10: That, well, you know they're doing some real freaky shark
Speaker 10: shit down there. Okay, Plus the scientist told us, and
Speaker 10: I confirm this is a real fact. Assy great white
Speaker 10: sharks have two penises. We got to see how that works.
Speaker 4: Oh my god, Michael, this is completely completely and hold on,
Speaker 4: did you just say two penises?
Speaker 8: Go on?
Speaker 2: Yeah?
Speaker 10: Yeah, I wish I could. I have so many questions.
Speaker 10: Do they use both penises at the same time? Or
Speaker 10: is one of them a spare?
Speaker 6: Right? Is one a grower and one a shower?
Speaker 10: Is it like twins where one of them is slightly
Speaker 10: better looking than the other?
Speaker 6: Science needs to know, right, right, we're right? Or like
Speaker 6: can the shark rub them together while she watches? Wait?
Speaker 4: Sorry, god, no, cowsame. We didn't send you to the
Speaker 4: ocean just to indulge some kink.
Speaker 3: How dare you?
Speaker 1: Okay?
Speaker 6: This isn't kinky, this is nature.
Speaker 10: Studying the cyclical copulation patterns of these majestic apex predators
Speaker 10: could unlock the evolutionary mysteries of the deep.
Speaker 4: Wow, you know what, Michael. I'm sorry. I totally underestimated
Speaker 4: your passion for this. Yeah, you're right, this is very exciting.
Speaker 10: Oh yeah, it's exciting.
Speaker 8: I am rock hard just thinking about it.
Speaker 6: I've got a sperm.
Speaker 10: Whale that's about the surface right here?
Speaker 6: Does he?
Speaker 4: Oh my god, Jesus Christ, Michael costs everybody.
Speaker 6: I'm telling hr.
Speaker 11: When we come back, we'll find out why Kentucky.
Speaker 4: Welcome back to The Daily Show. I live here in
Speaker 4: New York City, but my heart and liver damage are
Speaker 4: from my home state of Kentucky. Thanks to Mitch McConnell
Speaker 4: and Ran Paul, Kentucky doesn't have the best reputation, so
Speaker 4: I wanted to show that there's a lot more than
Speaker 4: you think.
Speaker 6: Take a look. Kentucky and I have both changed a lot.
Speaker 4: Since my youth, but unfortunately the changes the state currently
Speaker 4: faces can't be resolved with accutane.
Speaker 6: In one hundred and fifty hours of community service.
Speaker 4: Kentucky legislators passed one of the strictest anti trans laws
Speaker 4: in the nation. House Built three hundred would allow prosecutors
Speaker 4: to charge a woman with criminal homicide if she gets
Speaker 4: an abortion.
Speaker 9: At least can't enforce any kind of federal bait on gun.
Speaker 3: Adding gender affirming care the name of drag show rifles,
Speaker 3: free school.
Speaker 6: Trigger laws, a second business speak of stop.
Speaker 4: These bills are getting shoved through like a fried chicken
Speaker 4: sandwich in McConnell's lipless mouth.
Speaker 8: But do Kentuckians really feel this way?
Speaker 3: Absolutely not.
Speaker 6: Kentuckians are suffering because of their decisions. You can do
Speaker 6: things a lot better.
Speaker 3: It's like we're both of the falling upon DEATHI earths there's.
Speaker 7: A lot of straight white men, a lot of older men.
Speaker 5: I would say, and to match in particular that the
Speaker 5: vast majority of American people are sick and tired of
Speaker 5: the guns turtle base.
Speaker 4: There's that Southern hospitality on this. But she's right, Kentuckians
Speaker 4: aren't happy with their lawmakers. In fact, statistics have shown
Speaker 4: a majority support access to abortion, background checks on guns,
Speaker 4: and oppose the lawn gender affirming healthcare. So how is
Speaker 4: this happening. To get more insight, I met a local
Speaker 4: journalist who's shining a spotlight on the politics happening in
Speaker 4: conservative states. There's only one way to have this conversation,
Speaker 4: and that is overburbed. So it's safe to say that
Speaker 4: a lot of these laws that are passing from extreme
Speaker 4: legislators are not reflective of the values of the people
Speaker 4: of Kentucky.
Speaker 9: So my view is we're seeing an extreme Republican agenda
Speaker 9: because our legislators are governing like Republicans, not like Kentuckians.
Speaker 9: If you look at the laws being passing Kentucky, they're
Speaker 9: the exact same ones being passed in Florida or Mississippi.
Speaker 9: So these are much different states with much different priorities,
Speaker 9: but they have the exact same agenda because the Republicans
Speaker 9: in every state just passing a list of things Donald
Speaker 9: Trump and other writing Republicans like, and they're popular on
Speaker 9: Fox News.
Speaker 4: You know what, Let's just keep this flowing. I don't
Speaker 4: want to see this glass empty. Where do we go
Speaker 4: from here? Is there any solution?
Speaker 9: I think ultimately we have to in the short term,
Speaker 9: shame them out of passing the most aggressive version of
Speaker 9: these bills, criticize them enough to make sure that they
Speaker 9: are told when they go to church or when they
Speaker 9: go to the grocery store that you passed a terrible
Speaker 9: bill and acted like a bigot.
Speaker 6: Are you sure that shame would work with Kentucky Republicans.
Speaker 8: I mean, look at rand Paul.
Speaker 4: If I got my ass kicked in my front yard
Speaker 4: by my neighbor, I would never leave.
Speaker 8: My house again.
Speaker 9: I'm not saying it's a full proof point, and I'm
Speaker 9: just saying that these legislaters have to walk in public
Speaker 9: and live their life. And I do think you want
Speaker 9: to make clear that you have done something terrible.
Speaker 6: It might be the drinks. But I have an idea.
Speaker 4: What if we may change through the power of song,
Speaker 4: through subliminal messages.
Speaker 6: We could write a country song. No one's tried that,
Speaker 6: No one's tried that. We'll sing it together, okay, because
Speaker 6: we know how it goes. It goes here in Kentucky.
Speaker 4: We got bourbon and horses and a woman's rat to choose.
Speaker 9: We have.
Speaker 6: Well funded, well supported at school. Oh this is so good. Okay,
Speaker 6: we got to record this.
Speaker 4: The irony is that even as the Kentucky legislature becomes
Speaker 4: more extreme, Kentucky's citizens are trying to bring the state together.
Speaker 8: Citizens like Edward Lee. Edward Lee, an award winning chef,
Speaker 8: founded the Lee Initiative on nonprofit so he can do
Speaker 8: increase diversity and equality in the restaurant industry, and he's
Speaker 8: achieving this on a national level as well.
Speaker 3: Chef Edward Lee, owner of sixteen Magnolia and Louisville, has
Speaker 3: been invited to the White House to cook for the
Speaker 3: US and South Korea state dinner.
Speaker 4: When it comes to politics, he has a more grassroots approach.
Speaker 12: There are people in power here that have their agenda,
Speaker 12: but there's some belief in me where you stay and
Speaker 12: you fight the good fight, and you build a community
Speaker 12: and make sure that people do not feel marginalized, that
Speaker 12: people do not feel alone, that people do not feel
Speaker 12: like they're the only ones in this fight. And to me,
Speaker 12: that's stronger than any political movement. We have done dinners
Speaker 12: here where we have brought different groups at the table
Speaker 12: to sit down and talk things out out, and I
Speaker 12: would say, at the end of the dinner, you still disagree.
Speaker 12: The only difference is now you see the other person
Speaker 12: as a human being.
Speaker 4: Do you think this level of humanity and kindness and
Speaker 4: outreach that you do could ever exist in the Kentucky legislature.
Speaker 12: They come here for dinner, I can ask.
Speaker 6: Them, has Mitch McConnell ever?
Speaker 12: Can we don't serve intel?
Speaker 6: You don't serve in?
Speaker 12: Tell we've been here twenty one years. I'll say this,
Speaker 12: everyone's been through here.
Speaker 3: How many times have you spit in this food?
Speaker 6: I waited tables for ten years.
Speaker 12: Oh that is against everything I've seen.
Speaker 6: I know a thing or two about spitting in food.
Speaker 4: Despite not taking my advice and loved me feeling hopeful.
Speaker 4: So I sobered up and hit the streets to see
Speaker 4: if other people shared Ed's vision.
Speaker 9: You have to have hope because otherwise you wake up
Speaker 9: and you live in fear.
Speaker 6: And that's not what we in Kentucky do.
Speaker 9: We get up and we go to work, and we
Speaker 9: take care of our families, were good to our neighbors.
Speaker 13: When something bad happens in the state, everyone rallies together
Speaker 13: and the good fight still continues on.
Speaker 14: We are the solution, and we truly have got to
Speaker 14: become much more forceful and active. I think we can
Speaker 14: make it uncomfortable enough for those who are in charge
Speaker 14: of the voting, who are in charge of a prison,
Speaker 14: I guess.
Speaker 4: Yeah, make him uncomfortable, slip those laxatives.
Speaker 8: Key is car not a bag of shit on his doorstep?
Speaker 14: And you have the problem with that only makes me
Speaker 14: look bad.
Speaker 8: That would not achieve the.
Speaker 14: Goal I have.
Speaker 6: Plus it takes all that time to shit in the
Speaker 6: bag and light on fire.
Speaker 8: That's right, right, thank you.
Speaker 4: You know we can get some good bourbon around here,
Speaker 4: well at my house.
Speaker 8: But oh the way I follow you, it's a lot.
Speaker 6: But you know, I actually haven't fined.
Speaker 4: If you don't mind picking up the tab, I've racked
Speaker 4: up quite the mill.
Speaker 6: You said, Kentucky's are generous, right.
Speaker 11: Make them back.
Speaker 13: Jamila Jamil will.
Speaker 6: Be joining me on the show, so double.
Speaker 4: Welcome back to The Dailey Show. My guest tonight is
Speaker 4: an actor, activist, and the host of the SmartLess media
Speaker 4: podcast Bad Dates. Please welcome Jamila Jamil the fashion alone.
Speaker 4: I knew you'd be bringing the fashion.
Speaker 3: I knew you, and I brought my little bag. This
Speaker 3: is where that I bring my handbag on television.
Speaker 6: You don't trust anybody, no.
Speaker 3: Is I think it's specifically like a woman of color
Speaker 3: thing where we're just always ready for some sort of
Speaker 3: shit to go down.
Speaker 6: Well, don't trust anyone.
Speaker 3: No, don't trust any least of all you, babe. Yeah, well,
Speaker 3: you're doing so wonderfully. I'm loving you on the show.
Speaker 6: I am loving you.
Speaker 4: I am a huge fan of yours. You're such a
Speaker 4: brilliant comedic actress. I loved you in the good place
Speaker 4: and uh and but I have to say, I think
Speaker 4: one of the things that I adore most about you
Speaker 4: is how outspoken you are on social media, standing up
Speaker 4: for things that you believe in.
Speaker 3: In one whoop, everyone else is very upset.
Speaker 6: We love it, we love it.
Speaker 4: You are so vocal and it's so important, it means
Speaker 4: so much. So do you ever get nervous about that?
Speaker 4: Like I overthink what emojis I use on grin text.
Speaker 3: No, I think the problem is that I don't get
Speaker 3: nervous about it. I think that's I think that's where
Speaker 3: we've gone wrong. And I accept that. But I also
Speaker 3: think that I have started to occupy a very important
Speaker 3: but rare space for a woman in media, which is representation.
Speaker 3: It's like, fine, I'm South Asian representation. I get that,
Speaker 3: But we don't have enough representation of women who make mistakes,
Speaker 3: who falter, who get back up, who learn, who grow
Speaker 3: and decide to do better. So many of us cancel
Speaker 3: ourselves and we remove ourselves from society because we've been
Speaker 3: bred to believe that we're supposed to always be so
Speaker 3: approved of. And I'm not always approved of, and sometimes
Speaker 3: I do make mistakes, and I am fallible, and I
Speaker 3: have had a messy life and I'm a messy person,
Speaker 3: and we have to be able to see that in
Speaker 3: the public eye, so that we all know that we
Speaker 3: reserve the right to make mistakes, to come back and
Speaker 3: to grow and do better.
Speaker 14: Woman up.
Speaker 6: So I think we're are women that's but you know,
Speaker 6: no one's.
Speaker 3: I didn't have those role models. I just saw only
Speaker 3: perfect people who always looked perfect, who always said the
Speaker 3: perfect thing. And I think that was kind of damaging.
Speaker 3: So there you go. I've found a way to pretend
Speaker 3: it's valuable.
Speaker 4: You have a new podcast out, Bad Dates. It is
Speaker 4: so funny. You get the best guess and they come
Speaker 4: on and they tell these horrendous worst date stories.
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's so disgusting, it's unbelieved. Never listened to it
Speaker 3: with any of your children, oh, or your parents. It's
Speaker 3: it's so filthy, it's so funny, and it's not about
Speaker 3: like traumatic bad dates. It's just about the silliest things
Speaker 3: we've ever done on the road to love or shagging
Speaker 3: or both. And I think that we can we can
Speaker 3: all relate. We've all you know, we've all been there.
Speaker 4: We've all had terrible dates and or or sometimes we
Speaker 4: are the bad dates. Yeah, that's my wheelhouse. Yeah, what
Speaker 4: is your worst day?
Speaker 6: You told a horrible date story.
Speaker 3: The one that but I almost gave al Roca a
Speaker 3: hear heart attack.
Speaker 6: Yeah, yeah, for the second time. Yeah, I'm sorry.
Speaker 3: I didn't have the police.
Speaker 4: Yes, no, no, I don't know I just madely made
Speaker 4: that up. No, you did, but it was a great
Speaker 4: It was a great story. And had has that guy
Speaker 4: ever come back?
Speaker 3: No? But everyone's looking for him. Everyone's looking for him
Speaker 3: because he's a he's a famous man. Basically, there was
Speaker 3: an incident with he Oh god, he took three steps
Speaker 3: into my apartment passed out and had a seizure and
Speaker 3: all of his front teeth broke and flew across my
Speaker 3: apartment and I had to call nine one one, which
Speaker 3: was actually really exciting if you're English and you've seen it.
Speaker 8: In the movies, but I did that.
Speaker 3: The police come in and the ambulance and the fire
Speaker 3: brigade and everyone's trying to resuscitate him. They bring him
Speaker 3: back to and they're like, sir, have you taken anything.
Speaker 3: He's like, I've had a little bit of cocaine. By
Speaker 3: all was take okaine And I was like and then
Speaker 3: and they were like, have you taken anything else? And
Speaker 3: he was like no, And they're not pulling the blanket
Speaker 3: over his body and as they go past his penis,
Speaker 3: he gets rock hard and he looks at me like
Speaker 3: bleeding with such regret and goes, I might have had
Speaker 3: some viagra, suthless and disgrace.
Speaker 4: Such a beautiful first aid story. Yeah, thanks you they
Speaker 4: this is It's.
Speaker 3: Not James, it's not my boyfriend.
Speaker 4: Now they're together, they get a healthy relationship. This is
Speaker 4: This is reason alone why they should start regulating a
Speaker 4: rectile dysfunction medications as much as they regulate the abortion film.
Speaker 6: Who It Is?
Speaker 3: It was an actor?
Speaker 6: Is it? Chris Evans?
Speaker 3: It's not? Is it? And he has had a beard
Speaker 3: ever since because he split his chin open that day
Speaker 3: and had loads of stitches. So just look under the
Speaker 3: chins of all of your next few guests. You know
Speaker 3: you'll maybe find it.
Speaker 4: My god, it's such a funny, do you So you
Speaker 4: hear all these horrible bad date stories. What if you
Speaker 4: could give a piece of advice to people who are
Speaker 4: out there dating right now? Having heard all these stories,
Speaker 4: what would you say?
Speaker 3: Anything's a dildo? If you're brave enough.
Speaker 6: I love that.
Speaker 15: Fearious, fearless, I tell you, fearless.
Speaker 7: Is it?
Speaker 3: The problem? My problem says is they're literally ready to
Speaker 3: like late night TV.
Speaker 4: You can literally say anything anything you You started this
Speaker 4: movie meant called eyeweight, which started as a social media
Speaker 4: post but now it's blown up into this huge movement.
Speaker 3: What is it? So? It started off as a kind
Speaker 3: of conversation and a movement around eating disorders and the
Speaker 3: ways in which we value, specifically women around their body weight.
Speaker 3: We use a weighing scale to decide someone's value. But
Speaker 3: it has now grown into more of a mental health
Speaker 3: movement and a social advocacy space where you know, including
Speaker 3: on the left, we don't always make it a very
Speaker 3: welcoming space for people to come and to learn and
Speaker 3: to ask difficult questions or to unpack their old bullshit
Speaker 3: or was that a fuck me?
Speaker 6: I'm so sorry, I didn't think anyway, would hear that?
Speaker 6: And so pretend like that didn't happen.
Speaker 3: I think we say sometimes we can sometimes over punish
Speaker 3: people for what they just don't already know, and we
Speaker 3: can't separate ignorance from evil. And so what we created
Speaker 3: at Eyewey is a safe space where you know.
Speaker 6: Where you're from, you're giving this very meaningful anyway.
Speaker 3: Look, wherever you're from, wherever you're at in your knowledge,
Speaker 3: you're well and with me because I don't know shit
Speaker 3: about anything, and so if I can learn from these
Speaker 3: wonderful people on the Iway podcast, which are separate to
Speaker 3: the Bad Dates podcast. They are very different. Then you
Speaker 3: can join me in what I've been learning.
Speaker 6: And there's a there's a movement coming, and there's.
Speaker 3: Around it, so it is a whole movement in general.
Speaker 3: And we work with policies and we work with social
Speaker 3: media sites to make them less toxic. But now I'm
Speaker 3: going after the you know, I've I've made a big
Speaker 3: deal about the diet industry and I don't know if
Speaker 3: anyone heard, but now I'm taking on the exercise industry
Speaker 3: because it's become intertrent. I feel like it's shagging the
Speaker 3: diet industry right. They're they're now in a close and
Speaker 3: personal relationship, and it is shagging the rest of us.
Speaker 6: We're just getting.
Speaker 3: Shagged exactly, but not in a nice way. And so
Speaker 3: I'm I'm incredibly concerned at how much people only ever
Speaker 3: associate exercise with weight loss and with looking a certain way,
Speaker 3: or with like hyper fitness. And that's been reinforced by
Speaker 3: everything we see. The campaigns are always like the slimmest,
Speaker 3: most often whitest, and the fittest and fastest people in
Speaker 3: the world. And actually, because I had an eating sort
Speaker 3: of for twenty years. I never used to exercise unless
Speaker 3: it was to punish myself for what I'd eaten the
Speaker 3: day before. And I think a lot of us have
Speaker 3: that cycle, especially if you were born in the nineties
Speaker 3: or if you're a teenager who's growing up now. And
Speaker 3: so I would like to take exercise back. Like we
Speaker 3: leave fat people, we leave people with disabilities, we leave
Speaker 3: pregnant people, we leave all kinds of people out of
Speaker 3: the exercise world, and we make you feel like by
Speaker 3: the time you join a gym, you have to look
Speaker 3: like you've already been going to a gym for ten years.
Speaker 3: And I'm so done with that, because the mental health
Speaker 3: benefits of exercise don't take six months to achieve their
Speaker 3: immediate and you change the way that you sleep, and
Speaker 3: you change the way that you feel. And now that
Speaker 3: I have finally understood that I'm no longer exercising so
Speaker 3: that I am appropriate to look at for someone else,
Speaker 3: I'm exercising for myself for the immediate benefits. And you
Speaker 3: don't have to have perfect form, and you don't have
Speaker 3: to have abs, and you don't have to wear the
Speaker 3: bloody crop top on the bra and the leggings that
Speaker 3: are lemons. You can see your actual asshole through them.
Speaker 13: Like you.
Speaker 3: Loose clothes, you can dress like eminem you can do
Speaker 3: what you want.
Speaker 6: Yeah, and so you know, it's like you can.
Speaker 3: You can slack while you while you're exercising within reason,
Speaker 3: like be careful about throwing up down yourself. But I
Speaker 3: just want to reclaim it. I want to make sure
Speaker 3: that this isn't this club that we get left out of.
Speaker 3: Exclusive shouldn't be a good word anymore. It's a terrible word.
Speaker 3: It means leaving people out deliberately and pricing them out.
Speaker 3: It's becoming a wealth gap situation. So I'm trying to
Speaker 3: bring people back to exercise. We're trying to democratize exercise.
Speaker 3: And in May you can join me on my social
Speaker 3: media as I am going to try to do some exercise.
Speaker 3: It's going to become increasingly ridiculous, as you can imagine,
Speaker 3: every single day in May. And then we're going to
Speaker 3: start putting on events that are a safe space for exercise,
Speaker 3: where there aren't mirrors, and there aren't tight clothes, and
Speaker 3: there is fun food, and where we are not going
Speaker 3: to make you feel as though there is a physical
Speaker 3: standard you're supposed to meet. We just want you to
Speaker 3: feel happy.
Speaker 6: Thank you, Thank you for the work that you do.
Speaker 4: It's so appreciated you guys.
