WEBVTT - The new season of Next Question is ... all about Katie!

0:00:00.640 --> 0:00:04.240
<v Speaker 1>This season. On Next Question with Katie Couric, our first

0:00:04.280 --> 0:00:07.200
<v Speaker 1>guest is the very popular co anchor of the Today

0:00:07.240 --> 0:00:10.760
<v Speaker 1>Show here on NBC. We're going to dive into ladies

0:00:10.760 --> 0:00:16.120
<v Speaker 1>and gentlemen here. She is, Well, Katie, cos I don't

0:00:16.120 --> 0:00:18.639
<v Speaker 1>know if you all have heard, but I've written a memoir.

0:00:19.120 --> 0:00:23.000
<v Speaker 1>It's called Going There, and it's out on October, which

0:00:23.120 --> 0:00:25.520
<v Speaker 1>just so happens to be right smack in the middle

0:00:25.560 --> 0:00:29.200
<v Speaker 1>of our podcast season, So we figured why not just

0:00:29.560 --> 0:00:32.760
<v Speaker 1>go there. I still can't decide whether I'm Katherine or Katie.

0:00:33.000 --> 0:00:35.400
<v Speaker 1>We'll be looking at some of the biggest news stories

0:00:35.440 --> 0:00:38.600
<v Speaker 1>I've covered in my career. I'm Katie Kurriic in New Orleans,

0:00:38.640 --> 0:00:41.080
<v Speaker 1>wearing waiters for the first time in my life to

0:00:41.200 --> 0:00:44.000
<v Speaker 1>deal with all the flood waters that are still quite

0:00:44.080 --> 0:00:47.040
<v Speaker 1>high in several areas. I'm close up this morning the

0:00:47.040 --> 0:00:50.159
<v Speaker 1>Clarence Thomas nomination. The Senate is to vote tonight on

0:00:50.200 --> 0:00:53.440
<v Speaker 1>whether Thomas should get a lifetime appointment to the Supreme Court.

0:00:53.520 --> 0:00:57.000
<v Speaker 1>Early this morning, Matthew Sheppard passed away. The story has

0:00:57.040 --> 0:01:00.000
<v Speaker 1>captured national attention and sparked a debate over the necessity

0:01:00.080 --> 0:01:02.680
<v Speaker 1>for hate climb legislation and talk to some of the

0:01:02.720 --> 0:01:07.440
<v Speaker 1>people behind those stories, like Anita Hell. The term believe

0:01:07.680 --> 0:01:13.400
<v Speaker 1>all women is just our invitation to put in place

0:01:14.120 --> 0:01:19.240
<v Speaker 1>systems and processes that allow us to be heard and

0:01:19.400 --> 0:01:22.839
<v Speaker 1>believed as well as those who are inspired by them.

0:01:23.319 --> 0:01:26.080
<v Speaker 1>You look at so many of Matt's friends and we've

0:01:26.120 --> 0:01:29.600
<v Speaker 1>all kind of gone in our own paths. I was

0:01:29.680 --> 0:01:31.240
<v Speaker 1>just like, I have to save the world. I have

0:01:31.360 --> 0:01:34.200
<v Speaker 1>to do something. But we're also going to get pretty

0:01:34.280 --> 0:01:37.720
<v Speaker 1>personal because I'll be taking you behind the making of

0:01:37.760 --> 0:01:41.000
<v Speaker 1>my memoir. We really wrote the bulk of this book

0:01:41.200 --> 0:01:43.720
<v Speaker 1>in the middle of a pandemic. Katie is a pack

0:01:43.840 --> 0:01:46.800
<v Speaker 1>rad unlike this is not going to get done. She

0:01:46.920 --> 0:01:51.280
<v Speaker 1>saved everything. It was a very intense experience. You can

0:01:51.360 --> 0:01:55.640
<v Speaker 1>expect some special guests, intimate details and stuff about the

0:01:55.680 --> 0:01:59.560
<v Speaker 1>book you won't get anywhere else. And maybe that's because

0:01:59.600 --> 0:02:02.400
<v Speaker 1>of my our projection to can I lie down? I'm

0:02:02.440 --> 0:02:06.160
<v Speaker 1>kidding so come from my signature curiosity? Are you still

0:02:06.240 --> 0:02:09.080
<v Speaker 1>so angry at the federal government? I was curious what

0:02:09.600 --> 0:02:14.239
<v Speaker 1>newspapers and magazines did you regularly read. How emotional was

0:02:14.320 --> 0:02:16.400
<v Speaker 1>that for you? Tell me what was going through your mind?

0:02:16.600 --> 0:02:20.000
<v Speaker 1>Can you explain what internet is? But stay for some

0:02:20.120 --> 0:02:24.679
<v Speaker 1>of my own revealing answers. Find new episodes of Next
