1 00:00:01,400 --> 00:00:03,320 Speaker 1: And Amanda gem Nation. 2 00:00:03,640 --> 00:00:08,440 Speaker 2: She's here from the Daily Ods. Emma Gillespie, Hello, Hello, Well. 3 00:00:08,320 --> 00:00:11,320 Speaker 1: The US election is upon us. It's here Election week. 4 00:00:11,440 --> 00:00:14,000 Speaker 1: Can you even believe it? I know what time for 5 00:00:14,120 --> 00:00:17,360 Speaker 1: US do they hit the polls? Well, everything happens Wednesday 6 00:00:17,360 --> 00:00:20,000 Speaker 1: out time, So Tuesday their time, Wednesday out time. Polls 7 00:00:20,000 --> 00:00:23,240 Speaker 1: start closing Wednesday nine am. Most of them close about 8 00:00:23,239 --> 00:00:26,560 Speaker 1: midday and then it's all wrapped up by Wednesday three 9 00:00:26,600 --> 00:00:29,960 Speaker 1: pm out time, and challenge begins. Maybe, and it begins, 10 00:00:30,000 --> 00:00:32,000 Speaker 1: and it could be days, it could be weeks. Last 11 00:00:32,000 --> 00:00:34,800 Speaker 1: time it wasn't until Sundays. It could be years. Well, 12 00:00:34,840 --> 00:00:38,320 Speaker 1: it could be four long years. But poles and neck 13 00:00:38,360 --> 00:00:41,080 Speaker 1: and neck. Everyone is predicting a photo finish. They're calling 14 00:00:41,159 --> 00:00:44,479 Speaker 1: it the closest US election race in modern history. So 15 00:00:44,560 --> 00:00:47,120 Speaker 1: the candidates Trump and Harris are really trying to squeeze 16 00:00:47,159 --> 00:00:49,839 Speaker 1: as much good pr as they possibly can out of 17 00:00:49,880 --> 00:00:53,360 Speaker 1: the remaining garbage truck. Exactly, the garbage truck, the dying 18 00:00:53,440 --> 00:00:56,760 Speaker 1: breadths of their campaigns. And we had Vice President Kamala 19 00:00:56,840 --> 00:01:00,400 Speaker 1: Harris making a surprise appearance on SNL over the weekend. 20 00:01:00,440 --> 00:01:02,880 Speaker 1: She joined Maya Rudolph, who's an actress. You might know 21 00:01:02,920 --> 00:01:06,240 Speaker 1: her from Loot Bridesmaid. She's an SNL alarm. She does 22 00:01:06,280 --> 00:01:10,600 Speaker 1: a very incredibly precise impersonation of Karma, so she's been 23 00:01:10,640 --> 00:01:13,760 Speaker 1: satirizing Karmla over the last few months, and the pair 24 00:01:13,840 --> 00:01:17,240 Speaker 1: performed a sketch during the famous cold open of SNL, 25 00:01:17,319 --> 00:01:19,720 Speaker 1: So right before you see the monologue or any of 26 00:01:19,720 --> 00:01:23,880 Speaker 1: the credits, here's a little bit from that. We know 27 00:01:24,040 --> 00:01:27,160 Speaker 1: each other so well, we even finish each other's belief 28 00:01:27,240 --> 00:01:31,679 Speaker 1: in the promise of America. And then this was another 29 00:01:31,840 --> 00:01:39,480 Speaker 1: funny moment. Tamala, take my Pamela. The American people want 30 00:01:39,480 --> 00:01:41,559 Speaker 1: to start the chaos and am. 31 00:01:41,560 --> 00:01:45,240 Speaker 2: The dramaa with a cool new. 32 00:01:45,160 --> 00:01:51,160 Speaker 1: Step Mamala kick backing our Pajamala's and watch a rum Kamala. 33 00:01:51,520 --> 00:01:53,960 Speaker 2: I always think with SNL, are you like me? I 34 00:01:54,000 --> 00:01:55,960 Speaker 2: watch and I think, is this funny or not? I 35 00:01:55,960 --> 00:02:00,680 Speaker 2: can't tell, because sometimes there's really great, great stuff on there, Yes, 36 00:02:00,720 --> 00:02:02,440 Speaker 2: but they seem to go too long with it. 37 00:02:02,760 --> 00:02:05,440 Speaker 1: I love SNL, but I do think that, especially their 38 00:02:05,440 --> 00:02:08,520 Speaker 1: pre election show, it's really kind of a snapshot of 39 00:02:08,560 --> 00:02:11,480 Speaker 1: the cultural you know, it's a temperature check of what 40 00:02:11,480 --> 00:02:13,400 Speaker 1: the culture is thinking, and it's certainly not you know, 41 00:02:13,440 --> 00:02:16,240 Speaker 1: indicative of how Republican voters are feeling. But you know, 42 00:02:16,720 --> 00:02:20,320 Speaker 1: comedians that I've found if you make any jokes about Trump, 43 00:02:20,480 --> 00:02:21,720 Speaker 1: people just get really triggered. 44 00:02:21,800 --> 00:02:24,399 Speaker 2: Now, if you just make any joke about Donald Trump, yeah, 45 00:02:24,400 --> 00:02:26,440 Speaker 2: people just go, oh, well, you know, at least he's 46 00:02:26,480 --> 00:02:28,840 Speaker 2: not letting migrants into the country, and you go, yeah, 47 00:02:28,880 --> 00:02:29,400 Speaker 2: I'm just making it. 48 00:02:29,440 --> 00:02:31,480 Speaker 1: I think what SNL did really well in this show 49 00:02:31,680 --> 00:02:33,880 Speaker 1: in the pre election show was they kind of it 50 00:02:33,919 --> 00:02:37,520 Speaker 1: was a lot more self deprecating. They made fun of themselves, 51 00:02:37,600 --> 00:02:40,840 Speaker 1: Karmela really making fun of herself, mocking her own laugh. 52 00:02:41,280 --> 00:02:43,919 Speaker 1: Plenty of Trump jokes though, But we had Weekend Update, 53 00:02:43,919 --> 00:02:46,799 Speaker 1: which is their sort of news desk spoof segment in 54 00:02:46,880 --> 00:02:50,160 Speaker 1: halftime of the show, and the lead writers do that segment. 55 00:02:50,440 --> 00:02:52,960 Speaker 1: Here's a gag that Colin Jost opened with that I 56 00:02:52,960 --> 00:02:56,480 Speaker 1: thought was good. Well, next week, the American people will 57 00:02:56,480 --> 00:03:01,000 Speaker 1: decide if the next president will be Kamala Harris, if 58 00:03:01,080 --> 00:03:09,480 Speaker 1: everyone at SNL will get audited exactly. Well, I mean, yeah, 59 00:03:09,520 --> 00:03:12,280 Speaker 1: the whole of Hollywood's on edge, but they're throwing their 60 00:03:12,280 --> 00:03:15,119 Speaker 1: weight behind Harris. She's got a couple more rallies over 61 00:03:15,160 --> 00:03:17,680 Speaker 1: the next two days she's in Pittsburgh and Philadelphia, where 62 00:03:17,960 --> 00:03:22,040 Speaker 1: Lady Gaga, Katie Perry, Oprah Winfrey are all expected Ricky 63 00:03:22,160 --> 00:03:25,280 Speaker 1: Martin and that's not the only big star who has 64 00:03:25,320 --> 00:03:28,720 Speaker 1: thrown their support behind Carmelo. Over the weekend, former Republican 65 00:03:28,800 --> 00:03:33,320 Speaker 1: governor the Governator Arnold Schwarzenecker has endorsed Harris. Now you 66 00:03:33,400 --> 00:03:37,080 Speaker 1: might remember he was governor of California and a staunch Republican, 67 00:03:37,320 --> 00:03:40,200 Speaker 1: but he's backing the Democrat because he said that Trump 68 00:03:40,320 --> 00:03:43,480 Speaker 1: victory would mean four more years of BS. He wrote 69 00:03:43,520 --> 00:03:46,120 Speaker 1: this really lengthy post on x over the weekend. He 70 00:03:46,160 --> 00:03:48,880 Speaker 1: said he doesn't really do endorsements, but he felt that 71 00:03:48,920 --> 00:03:50,880 Speaker 1: he really had to that this is all just a 72 00:03:50,920 --> 00:03:53,840 Speaker 1: game to Trump, and a candidate who won't respect your 73 00:03:53,920 --> 00:03:56,360 Speaker 1: vote unless it's for him, is, you know, not a 74 00:03:56,360 --> 00:04:00,360 Speaker 1: candidate who can protect the future of America. They also 75 00:04:00,400 --> 00:04:03,880 Speaker 1: didn't realize there's beef between Schwarzenegger and Trump because Arnie 76 00:04:03,960 --> 00:04:07,880 Speaker 1: replaced Trump on the Celebrity on the Apprentice in six 77 00:04:08,160 --> 00:04:11,520 Speaker 1: posting about how terrible the ratings were when because he 78 00:04:11,640 --> 00:04:14,360 Speaker 1: was his replacement. But there is a kind of more 79 00:04:14,400 --> 00:04:17,440 Speaker 1: sinister conversation going on here, which Arnie has alluded to, 80 00:04:17,720 --> 00:04:20,039 Speaker 1: which is that Trump has gone really hard over the 81 00:04:20,040 --> 00:04:25,200 Speaker 1: weekend on the voter fraud, the controversial kind of conspiracy 82 00:04:25,240 --> 00:04:28,960 Speaker 1: theorizing about the democratic system. He told supporters at a 83 00:04:29,040 --> 00:04:32,480 Speaker 1: rally in Pennsylvania that he thinks polsters should be locked 84 00:04:32,560 --> 00:04:35,599 Speaker 1: up because polls are illegal. They find it very hard 85 00:04:35,640 --> 00:04:37,680 Speaker 1: to find people who are going to man those booths. 86 00:04:37,680 --> 00:04:39,480 Speaker 2: Actually, yeah, an. 87 00:04:39,320 --> 00:04:44,120 Speaker 1: Election day, these people are terrified going to be the front. 88 00:04:43,880 --> 00:04:45,840 Speaker 2: For There was one that was set on fire. 89 00:04:46,200 --> 00:04:50,320 Speaker 1: There are multiple that have been set on fire. They've 90 00:04:50,320 --> 00:04:52,360 Speaker 1: got a suspect. They have these images of a car 91 00:04:52,440 --> 00:04:54,360 Speaker 1: that they think had sort of hopped around all these 92 00:04:54,360 --> 00:04:57,039 Speaker 1: ballots over over the course of one night, but they found, 93 00:04:57,080 --> 00:05:01,320 Speaker 1: you know, ied explosive things in these battle boxes. Trump 94 00:05:01,400 --> 00:05:04,760 Speaker 1: is basically calling for early votes to not be counted. 95 00:05:04,800 --> 00:05:06,800 Speaker 1: He says that they know why because a whole lot 96 00:05:06,839 --> 00:05:08,880 Speaker 1: of women have voted early, and that's believed to be 97 00:05:08,960 --> 00:05:11,359 Speaker 1: a push for Karmela. Well that sixty million people have 98 00:05:11,440 --> 00:05:13,880 Speaker 1: voted early or something in the US, which is huge. 99 00:05:14,360 --> 00:05:16,520 Speaker 1: And now you know, we've already got this talk of 100 00:05:16,640 --> 00:05:20,240 Speaker 1: denying whatever results going to be. It's exhausting, it is, 101 00:05:20,360 --> 00:05:23,160 Speaker 1: and the only thing Americans do seem to be an 102 00:05:23,160 --> 00:05:25,360 Speaker 1: agreement on is. A poll last week, a national poll 103 00:05:25,400 --> 00:05:28,760 Speaker 1: found that two thirds of US voters do feel that 104 00:05:28,920 --> 00:05:32,560 Speaker 1: violence post election day is inevitable. So they're all expecting 105 00:05:33,240 --> 00:05:37,200 Speaker 1: some kind of huge uprising, which is just horrific. It's 106 00:05:37,240 --> 00:05:38,120 Speaker 1: going to be a scary week. 107 00:05:38,160 --> 00:05:42,119 Speaker 2: I'm glad we live here with democracy Sausage's thank you 108 00:05:42,200 --> 00:05:47,520 Speaker 2: exactly exactly, may that's what they need. 109 00:05:47,560 --> 00:05:50,039 Speaker 1: If they had democracy sausages, maybe there'd be a kind of. 110 00:05:50,440 --> 00:05:53,200 Speaker 2: Probably the temperature would drop a bit, not on the 111 00:05:53,240 --> 00:05:55,479 Speaker 2: grill for the democracy sausage. 112 00:05:55,480 --> 00:05:57,760 Speaker 1: But nonetheless, unless you vote late, run out of onion, 113 00:05:57,800 --> 00:05:59,920 Speaker 1: and then all hell breaks, loads don't even start.
