Its finally over, young keiki. Is your anger at rest . Yeah, i guess so. Except it still doesnt change the fact that ben affleck gets to be handsome, talented, and then gets to go home and kiss Jennifer Lopez. Ben affleck isnt with Jennifer Lopez anymore. Hes married to Jennifer Garner. Yeah. Its true. What . Really . But i thought i was totally jealous of him hes just married to Jennifer Garner . Oh, my gosh. I feel so much better you do . Yeah. Oh, i like that ben affleck guy. Hes a good filmmaker. Come on, kenny. I guess i owe the kids at school an apology. Did you see argo, kenny . Its a pretty good movie. Ben affleck has a lot going for him. Not everything, but a lot. Whoopee from comedy centrals world news headquarters in new york, this is the daily show with trevor noah. cheers and applause trevor welcome to the daily show. Im trevor noah. Thank you so much for tuning in. Our guest tonight, w. Kamau bell is joining us, everybody. But first, yesterday was may 1. Also known as International Workers day. Now, its usually a time for peaceful marches, protests, and occasionally breaking bleep . A may day rally turned violent in portland after riots broke out. Demonstrators throwing smoke bombs, molotov cocktails and other objects at Police Officers. Dozens arrested as selfdescribed anarchists charged Police Officers with incendiary devices as trump and antitrump demonstrators faced off. Trevor it is so hard to be a bike cop. laughter day in, day out. Youre out there with your bicycle, looking goofy, and then the one day when other cops get to dress up in scary riot gear, they still make you carry the bicycle . laughter dont i get a shield, man . Shut up, bike guy obviously, this is serious stuff, right. This was supposed to be a labor protest, not a riot. Although, there is something a little bit funny about a labor protest in portland, the hipster capital of the world. You know, its like, were here for workers rights. Well, whats your job, man . Oh, i write unicycle poetry. Its a thing. laughter lets move on. Do you guys remember Hillary Clinton . Yes, yes . Yes, the overqualified president ial candidate. And parttime i. T. Consultant, who was meant to smash through the glass ceiling, yes, and it turned out the glass was bulletproof. Remember that, yes . Well, today, that very same Hillary Clinton finally came out of the woods for an interview with Christiane Amanpour in of at a conference in new york. And you could tell hillary has been spending time deep in that forest because she clearly found some shade. You spoke about the sexism, misogyny, and inequity around the world, but do you believe it exists here, still, and do you think laughter do you think laughter . Because, you know, health care is complicated. laughter and, remember, i did win more than three million votes than my opponent. cheers and applause so its like really . He should worry less about the election and my winning the popular vote than doing some other things that would be important for the country. applause . Trevor heeey. Heeey damn hillary was informed today. Yeah, she did so much dissing, all of the memes just joinedded her on stage. They were like laughter i will say, this is classic hillary, though. She goes away for six months, plans all of her comebacks, then goes on Christiane Amanpour, and just lets them fly, you know. Guess what, trump . The jerk store called. laughter now, the reason Hillary Clinton was at this conference was to promote more involvement of women in government and society. So, of course, the number one question was, why dont you have more involvement in government and society . He had one message, your opponent, and it was a successful message make America Great again. And where was your message . Do you take any personal responsible . Oh, of course. I take absolute personal responsibility. I was the candidate. But i was on the way to winning until a combination of jim comeys letter on october 28, and russian wick leaks raised doubts in the minds of people who were inclined to vote for me but got scared off. Trevor and i was on the way to winning that race until usain bolt ran faster than me. laughter look, dont get me wrong i get that hillary is sick about, you know sick of talking about all this, especially considering that losing to trump has somehow defined her. Which is weird because if you think about it, hillary was a senator. She was a secretary of state. Theres no doubt she was a pioneer. But now whenever she speaks, thats all people want to hear about, you know. One day when she sees a car accident shell be like, hello, 911. Id like to report a crash. Yes. Uhhuh. Well, michigan, the poll numbers really didnt yeah. They didnt account for yeah. Okay. And by the way im not just making this up. You can tell hillary is so over the election right now. Within an hour or two of the hollywood access tape being made public, the russian best of john podaefts emails hit wikileaks. You just cant make this stuff up. Did we make mistakes . , of course, we did. Did i make mistakes . Oh, my gosh, yes. Youll read my confession and my request for absolution. Trevor lock me up. Lock me up. Lock me up. laughter you know, i will say this after 100 days of President Trump, it was pretty refreshing to hear a politician talk in full sentences. laughter cheers and applause are about about complicated issues. Now, the North Koreans are always interested not just kim jongun, but his father before him were always interested in trying to get americans to come to negotiate, to elevate their status and their position. And we should be very careful about giving that away. You should not offer that in the absence of a broader, strategic framework to try to get china, japan, russia, south korea to put the kind of pressure on the regime that will finally bring them to the negotiating table with some kind of realistic prospect for change. Trevor wow. laughter i mean, no tremendouses. No hand gestures. Not one description of chocolate cake. No. I didnt realize how much id missed hearing sentences with a beginning, middle, and end. laughter cheers and applause i didnt even realize it. Like, you can really tell when hillarys speaking, she knows who Frederick Douglass is. laughter and now, just just for comparison, lets take a look at the current president , who cbs John Dickerson recently asked about the saying that since the oval office has no corners, theres nowhere to hide. And, clearly, the president did not understand that that was a metaphor. George w. Bush said the reason the oval office is round is there are no corners you can hide in. Well, theres truth to that. Theres truth to that. There are certainly no corners. You look and theres a census openness but theres nobody out there. Theres an openness but ive never seen anybody out there, actually, if you can imagine. What he meant was it all comes back to you. Sure, sure, it does, it does. laughter applause trevor wow. I say that journalist is very professional because you realize in that moment, hes saying metaphorically, and donald trump is like, youre right, theres no corners. Nowhere to hide. There could be someone out there. You never know. We should put some corners in. So now, basically, we can add metaphors to the list of things President Trump has very little knowledge of. As exciting as it was to see hillary back in the mix, it didnt take long to be reminded why she doesnt connect, though, with so Many American voters. We have to make investments in even more comprehensive job training and education it provide the skills that are going to be necessary. And we sahave to invest in certain sectors of the economy where we think we can stay ahead of the trevor hey, hillary, ben carson called. He. Wants. His. Cadence. Back. laughter the fact is, weve all been inundated by cable news fake excitement and sound bitingness for so long, i dont think Hillary Clinton or a candidate like her could ever connect with people. Say what you want about donald trump, he doesnt bore you. Listening to hillary talk after getting used to trump, is like getting an iphone after owning a samsung you know the iphone wont explode but you miss the unpredictability. Today felt like america saw the one that got away. And people were like, damn, maybe i didnt give her enough credit. You know, we could have maybe had something. You cant reminisce for too long because the one you chose is calling right now going, come home, honey were going to build a wall well be right back. cheers and applause party up party [beatbox vocals] youre gonna rock the party hi guys. In the desert. Be here. At the mall. On the mountain. At school. At the beach. In the big easy. Yeah. Yeah. Today i want to show you guys the nextgen chevy equinox. What do you think . Thats pretty. Pretty sexy. Its allwheel drive. Look at that. It looks aggressive. But not overbearing. Its not too big. Not too small. It looks like it can go offroading. But at the same time, it looks like a car you can take to a nice event. You can dress it up or dress it down. Seems like the perfect car for anybody. I would take it anywhere. I want one. I love it.

You know, ever since United Airlines knot in trouble for upgrading a passenger to wrestling class, people have started paying close attention to how airlines treat customers. There have been many viral videos of crazy stuff happening on airplanes. In fact, theyre thinking about starting an airlines for world star airlines, right. Basically what happens is youre just going to choose your section first class, economy, or mcdonalds parking lot and then if they have an emergency, phones drop down from the ceiling so you can film yourself. Aaah world star for more on the trends in travel, we turn to senior travel correspondent, character everybody. cheers and applause thank you, thank you. Thanks, trevor. Look, flying suction, right . Its always sucked but back in the day we just couldnt record how much it sucked. Now with camera phones we can relive those terrible moments forever. This delta pilot was caught hitting a passenger. American immediately suspended the Flight Attendant who allegedly ripped a stroller away from a mother, nearly striking the child in the process. Hey, buld, you do that to me and ill knock you flat. Another disturbing Airline Incident caught on camera. Two passengers throwing punches at each other. The man in red ideal, you think im crazy . The government is crazy. laughter no, dude, youre crazy. All right . Who fights in a hawaiian shirt . laughter hes like the angriest guy at the luau. Why is there no embrella in my pina colaud. What is this a new preflight routine here are the seat belts, heres the exit. We want a good, clean fight you think detroit is tough . Try being in border zone five. Come on, people, we cant keep fighting each other on airplanes. A passenger stung by a scorpion. The united flight was heading from houston to calgary when the scorpion suddenly dropped from the overhead bin, landing on a passengers head. Why are we fighting desert animals in the sky . laughter okay. Look, if a bird picks a fight with me, okay, maybe. But a scorpion, no. Im not mentally prepared for that. And the worst part is, when a scorpion stings me, i wont have the antidote, because its more than three ounces. applause yeah. Right. So now im dead. Like, this rabbit. United airlines is dealing with another p. R. Nightmare following the death of a giant rabbit. They came out with a statement, the safety and wellbeing of all animals that travel with us is of the utmost importance to United Airlines. What makes matters worse was simon was a promising rabbit. At 129 centimeters long, his father, darius, holds the Guinness World record for being the biggest rabbit. Thanks a lot, united. You killed the yao ming rabbit. Excuse me, this is a professionally big rabbit. Like a firstballot halloffame rabbit. Trevor gee, ronny, i fly, but i didnt realize flying had gotten so bad, man. Is there anything the airlines can do . Well, im glad you asked, trevor. First of all, hey, airlines, stop overbook flights, okay cheers and applause yeah, this is what you do, okay . You count the seats on your plane, and then you sell that number of tickets. laughter applause thats it. Sorry, is that too difficult to understand . Second thing, we dont need 20 websites searching each other for cheaper flights, okay . Just have one website. Call it the cheapest flight. Thats it. We go there, and we get the cheapest flight. And if theres a delay, they should pay us. Thats how it works. And if we crash into the ocean applause yeah. If we crash into the ocean, we need knives under our seats. Otherwise, were sitting there like chicken mcnuggets for sharks. laughter trevor you know, ronny, actually, i heard congress is having hearings today, and congress is going to figure out a way to make a passenger bill of rights. Great, congress in charge of airlines. Next time i go home, im driving. Trevor thanks, ronny. Ronny chang, everybody. Well be right back. Chiewbl chiewb starbucks doubleshot energy.

My guest tonight is a comedian and author whose new book is called the awkward thoughts of w. Kamau bell. Please welcome w. Kamau bell. cheers and applause trevor welcome to the show, my friend. Thank you for having me back, sir. Trevor great to have you. Just for the few of you asking themselves, no, this is not quest love. laughter . Nor is it dr. Cornell west. Trevor you get that. Be honest. I have signed autographs. Ive kissed baby as quest love. Trevor welcome back to the show. Youre going around america youre doing great. Trevor youre doing a great job. Your show on cnn is coming back, united shades of america. Youre going around america, youre meeting crazy people lets be honest. But this sunday was interesting, you had Richard Spencer on the show. Yes. Trevor who is a nazi. Yeah. Trevor who says hes not, but he is. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Trevor and people came up to you and said, hey, man. Why did you have him on the show . Why are you giving this guy a platform . Why did you have him on the show . Im not afraid of Richard Spencers ideas, and we all think were all as woke as each other. Were not all woke. Some of us are asleep. Yeah. cheers and applause trevor so in that world, basically, what youre saying is youre not afraid Richard Spencer is going to have some new racism that will convince you . Yeah, like, oh, youre right. Black people arent as good as white people. Thank you, sir. And giving him a platform means if i went and said, hey, man. You take the show for the hour. Im taking the week off. Thats how it works. Its very clear when you watch the show whose side im on everybody elses. The election popular results show that my ideas can win this country if we get rid of the, you know, electoral college, leftover slave holder math. Then well be fine. cheers and applause . Trevor lets talk about lets talk about that free speech, because you live in berkeley, last i checked, right . Yes, ill fight you, yes. Trevor did you say ill fight you . I live in berkeley. What, what did you say . Berkeley is the new compton. Trevor how do you feel about that . Free speech means freedom, speech you know, im not telling you anything you dont know. You had to take the test. I didnt take to get in this country. I just fell out of my mom. Free speech is not the government stopping you from expressing yourself. If youre going to show up some place and bait people and intentionally, like, target students, like milo has or intentionally start trouble, then other people are going to show up and have a different version of that free speech. Mye whole point of that is you can have the freedom of speech but have the responsibility for the free speech and know what it might do. If youre going to go on a College Campus like milo or ann coulter or Richard Spencer and intentionally start something, then be responsible. You know, Louis Farrakhan also goes on College Campuses and knows people might be agitated. You know what he also does . He brings security. He knows, i need to protect myself. I need to protect the college and the whole venue. Im saying, ann coulter, call the nation of islam. Maybe theyll protect you. Trevor wouldnt that be a combination . I would love it im pitching it as a romantic comedy. Trevor the white devil wears prada. cheers and applause yeah trevor thats title im going to give you. Yeah, yeah. Trevor enough about that. Lets laughter lets talk about lets talk about the book, because you talk about being a dad. Yeah. Trevor and you are the father to two beautiful daughters. Yeah. Trevor right. And this was this was really it was poignant, and it was vulnerable of you. But you say here, being a big, black man is why i realized i was so happy to have a daughter, and its why i was so happy to then have a second daughter. I felt some sense of relief. I didnt want to have to figure out how to talk to them about how to be a black man in america. I recognize its extremely selfish its an extremely selfish thought to have. I need to be talking to every black man i know about being a black man in this country, now, more than ever. Like, that is an insane thought to have when you are having children and youre saying, thank god youre not a male because you may live longer. And i want to be clear. I dont think black women have it somehow easier than black men. Trevor its a different challenge. Its a different challenge. I just know to have to sit down and have that black male discussion that i had to have and i feel every day, it just felt like like i said, they have different challenges, but i feel like its its intense, man. Trevor do you think its less frightening, maybe . Because, i mean, we do know that in many ways, american women have it the worst, statistically. Everything speaks to that. But maybe its just a little less frightening for you as a black man, you see your daughters as less of a threat . Is that what it might be . Theres this sense of if i had a black son, at what age do i have to tell him, be careful . Theres a thing that black men, we always people always think were older than we are. My mom, when i was, like, 11, she was like, when you go outside, youre a grownup now. Trevor wow. Yeah, and so to me, theres a different type of conversation to have a i have black women in my life to support my two black daughters, but that conversation is a bummer, man. And i cant i cant thats why the book is awkward. I feel awkward talking about it right now, you know what im saying . I dont want to say the wrong thing, but there was the thing about the conversation about you are identified as either a threat currently or a future threat, which as we know with jordan edwards, its like just because he was black, he was a threat. Nobody cared about his report card or what he was doing with his life, you know. A so, thats its a conversation i was, in some sense, relieved not have and then felt really bad about the fact i was relieved not have it. And i wrote it in the book so everybody could feel awkward with me. laughter . Trevor i can tell you, it comes across. We appreciate you sharing. Its a really fantastic story. Thank you so much. Kamaus show, united shades of america, airs sundays at 10 p. M. On cnn, and the awkward thoughts of w. Kamau bell is available now. W. Kamau bell, everybody. Well be right back. cheers and applause
