[ cheers and applause ] and we have music tonight from one of my all time favorites, john prine with iris dement. [ cheers and applause ] and you are absolutely going to love it. Without hyperbole, the most excited ive been for a musical guest. This was john prine was someone who really was the sound track of growing up in my house, in the meyers family. My parents actually flew down for the show tonight. So there are some real luminaries in the house tonight, you guys. [ cheers and applause ] there they are. And theyre excited. Dad wore the good coat also [ cheers ] the silver fox you guys, this news broke a while ago. I have a baby now. I have a kid. [ cheers ] and hes 7 months old, so you dont have to do the math to know or you can, but first halloween was yesterday, which is very exciting. And he went as a lamb. There he is. [ audience aws ] check out check out baby ashe. I showed this to one of my writers, who said it looked like this was a mug shot [ laughter ] that they took after the cops found him stealing candy. And we do have a dog named frisbee. And you can bet that my wife got frisbee in on the act. There they are. [ audience aws ] ashe wore his costume all day. Frisbee wore that for about two and a half minutes before she tore it off her head. And here they are. Heres my wife. Heres my wonderful wife, alexi and ashe out trickortreating. [ audience aws ] [ applause ] and i asked my wife, how was trickortreating . And she said, it was great. We saw Sarah Jessica parker. And i said, dont say we. he didnt see her. [ light laughter ] how was trickortreating . He said, we saw the girl from divorced. [ light laughter ] because hes not old enough to have seen sex and the city. [ laughter ] he wouldnt have known it he cant possibly know what that show is yet. All right, you guys, before we move on to all of our fantastic guests, which im very much looking forward to, one thing about donald trump thats become very clear throughout this campaign is just how much he underestimated the incredible amount of public scrutiny hed get as a president ial candidate. And now that scrutiny may be hurting him in the place he cares about the most, his wallet. For more on this its time for a closer look. [ cheers and applause ] seth remember, before he became a president ial candidate, donald trump was a blustery new york city businessman known mostly to voters not for the person he was behind closed doors, but for the character he played in tabloids and on tv. And as he has often reminded us in recent weeks, back then life was so much easier. I used to get such good publicity, folks. Now, i mean, its like its incredible. I used to get my life was so simple. My life was so simple. I had a beautiful, simple life. Seth that of course is a line from the classic donald Trump Christmas movie its a beautiful, simple life, so beautiful, like you wouldnt believe, the simplest and most beautiful life, everybody says so. [ cheers and applause ] and of course, i dont need to tell you that in that film every time a bell rings a Victoria Secret angel gets groped. [ laughter ] but of course, this Long Campaign unearthed for public view all kinds of deeply unflattering information about trumps Business Record from his six bankruptcies to his loss of nearly 1 billion in 1995. Just last night, the New York Times reported that trump avoided reporting hundreds of millions of dollars in taxable income by using a tax avoidance maneuver so legally dubious it was later outlawed by congress. I have a feeling if trump becomes president a lot of laws are going to be passed to outlaw his behavior. For example, congress is going to have to pass a bill making it illegal to force female senators to wear a sash with the state theyre from. [ light laughter ] basically trump pressured his financial backers to forgive hundreds of millions of dollars in debt. Now that forgiven debt would normally have counted as income that trump would have had to pay taxes on. But trumps maneuver gave him a way to simply avoid reporting any of that cancelled debt to the i. R. S. , allowing him to avoid paying income taxes he might otherwise have owed on books, tv shows, or branding deals. Trump avoided paying taxes on his books . If anything, he should have had to pay people to read his books. Because one of his books is actually called think big and kick ass in business and life, which is still number one on the New York Times list of bestselling books for wall street bankers to snort cocaine off. [ laughter ] [ applause ] now trumps defense for this kind of tax dodging has basically been to blame Hillary Clinton. After years of failure, she complains about how ive used the tax laws of this country to my benefit. Then i ask a simple question, why didnt she ever try to change those laws so i couldnt use them . Seth thats kind of like saying, yes, i strangled her, but its her fault for having a neck. [ laughter ] but it wasnt just his Business Record that was central to his brand before he got into this race. There was also the impression that because trump was wealthy he must also be smart. But the image of trump as a genius billionaire has also been undercut during this campaign, most recently by his own Campaign Aides who talk about him the way you talk about a child. Just look at what his campaign manager, kellyanne conway, said recently about her strategy for getting trump not to tweet nasty things. Quote, you have these people saying delete the app. Stop tweeting. i would say, here are a couple of cool things we should tweet today. [ laughter ] its like saying to someone how about having two brownies and not six . [ light laughter ] and that really encapsulates where we are in this election. It counts as a victory to convince someone to only eat two brownies. But how do you get an unruly child to agree to eat two brownies instead of six . By tricking them into thinking it was their idea in the first place. In fact, one trump donor came up with a helpful acronym to explain trumps refusal to accept any ideas that arent his. Quote, trump has the following personality n. I. H, n. F. W. Meaning if its not invented here, then its no [ bleep ] way. [ laughter ] man, that is a. R. S. F. A. , a really stupid [ bleep ] acronym. [ laughter and applause ] trump trump of course is also famously resistant to listening to other people. But conway said she discovered another way to get advice across to him go on tv. Quote, a way you can communicate with him is you go on tv to communicate. They have to go on tv and then make trump watch it to communicate with him. Which explains this recent episode of dora the explorer. Stay on message. Stop tweeting at 3 00 in the morning. [ light laughter ] stop attacking women on their appearance please dont deport me. Por favor, no me deporte. [ laughter ] seth so even by his own campaigns account [ applause ] trump is a child who has to be manipulated to listen to his aides. And then theres trumps philanthropy. On the surface, trump seemed like a generous supporter of charitable causes, but again, now that hes running for president reporters have unearthed unflattering stories about that Charitable Giving that undercut the image he projected. Like this story reported over the weekend by Washington Post reporter david fahrenthold. This charity in new york, the association to benefit children, that was having a ribboncutting for a new Nursery School for children with aids in 1996. Trump hadnt given them money. He wasnt invited to the fundraiser. He was not a donor at all, but he showed up anyway and actually stole a seat on the stage that was reserved for another donor. He sat there through the whole thing, pretended like he was a donor. When the whole ceremony is over, and the photographer stopped taking pictures, he left and didnt offer any money. Seth he showed up at a benefit for children with aids and pretended to be a donor. That sounds like a story line from an episode of curb your enthusiasm. [ laughter ] what . The chair was empty, so i took the chair there was an empty chair youre a [ bleep ] ass[ bleep ], larry youre a [ bleep ] ass[ bleep ] [ laughter and applause ] and thats just one of the stories in this new report. In 1997, for example, trump was principal for a day at a Public School in an impoverished area of the bronx. The chess team was holding a bake sale. The post reports that trump had brought something to wow them. He handed them a fake Million Dollar bill. The teams parents volunteers were thrilled, then disappointment. Trump then gave them 200 in real money and drove away in a limousine. [ light laughter ] did he also do donuts in the limo while yelling suck it out the window . So the character trump played in tabloids and on tv of a generous, intelligent billionaire has been undercut by his president ial campaign. And now there are signs that the one thing he cares about most, his brand, is hurting as a result. Signs are emerging that Trumps Campaign may be hurting his billiondollar business. At some manhattan buildings bearing the trump name, residents now petitioning to have the golden letters removed. There are signs Trumps White House bid is hurting his brand. His latest hotel not called trump at all. Instead, scion. Seth wow, his new hotel isnt named after him. That is heartbreaking. Trump loved putting his name on buildings. Hes like the tyler perry of real estate. [ light laughter ] and as madea would say, its a lurvely hurtel. [ laughter ] this has been tyler perrys a closer look. Well be right back with common.

His latest album, black america again, is out this friday. Please welcome to the show, common. [ cheers and applause ] seth welcome. How you doing, bro . Seth im good. Im so happy to have you here. Grateful to be here. Thank you for having me. Seth so i want to start with this. I know youre from chicago. I know youre a white sox fan. Yes. Seth can a white sox fan root for the cubs in a time like this . Yes. A white sox fan has to root for the cubs. Seth okay. Even though theres some hardcore white sox fans who will not root for the cubs and root against them. Seth but you are trying to bridge this gap. Im bridging this gap. You know, im about unity [ light laughter ] seth yeah. And, um, chicago im from chicago. I want to see the cubs win. A hundred years, man . [ cheers and applause ] a hundred years. Come on. Seth i think even if you didnt like the cubs, if they win they can finally stop being victims and be so irritating all the time about were cursed they can just be quiet. We need that and even with bartman, you know seth yeah. It would be nice to see him be you know free of that. Redeemed. Redemption, yeah. Seth redeemed. Now you i did not know this about you. You were a ball boy for the Chicago Bulls back in the day. Yeah. Seth so, how youre a kid then, right . Yeah. I was 12 years old and thats exactly when Michael Jordan first he got drafted when i was the ball boy for the bulls. Seth thats an incredible time to be doing that. Now is it all glitz and glamour being a ball boy or is there an underside . I mean, you know it looks good. Youre on tv, you know, at the time and youre like, im on tv. But youre picking up jock straps also. [ laughter ] seth yeah. Thats not glamorous. Seth thats not glamorous. No. Especially old sweaty ones after a game. [ light laughter ] seth yeah, thats not great. And would you was there any benefit . Would you get shoes out of it or anything . Oh, well, you know, because i was like, after a few games, because i was the visiting teams ball boy, i would get shoes from isiah thomas, magic johnson, larry bird, and Michael Jordan. And i would use these shoes because i couldnt fit them. I would use them to barter with my teachers sometimes, because my teachers [ light laughter ] my teachers, when i would get in trouble at school, i would say, you know, i actually have these isiah thomas shoes [ laughter ] and, hey, they were with it. I mean, i really got saved in a lot of classes because of those shoes. Seth well those teachers taught you terrible lessons. [ laughter ] exactly. Seth so tell me about the album, black america again. Now, how do you what inspires you for an album like this . Where do you sort of pull from for the inspiration . Well, i mean we are in critical times in the world, as we see. And of course in america and this election year. I think what this really, this album is about is, like, black humanity. Its about the expression of black people just as human beings and just showing that humanity the joy, the protest, the love, the freedom, and just, you know, really just connecting with other human beings from a black perspective. So, i think because we see so much violence against black people in the streets a lot and we see black people being depicted as criminals, i think you know the world needs to see other aspects of us. Seth one of the obviously its an inspirational message, this album. And you pulled from, i cant imagine a more inspirational musician, you get to work with Stevie Wonder on this album. Yes. Seth what was that like . I mean, its just amazing for me when Stevie Wonder calls he called me on the phone and im, like, listening to him playing this instrument, this harpsichord. And hes singing to me on the phone. Just singing. Im like, i cant believe Stevie Wonder is on my phone. Seth yeah. [ light laughter ] yeah. So eventually he talked to me and said i said, you know, i have this song that i would love for you to perform on called black america again. He said, come to the studio. So went to the studio, we started talking and he started, like, listening to the song and humming a melody. And was also asking what was going on with the basketball game, because i was watching a basketball game and i had to kind of tell him what was going on with the game. [ light laughter ] seth sure. With all due respect, you know. Seth yeah. Yeah and eventually he came with the melody. And it was really quick. The melody and the words for black america again, what he says at the end. And really what he says is we are rewriting the black american story. Its what im saying. Were showing a new narrative about black america. Seth do you feel an incredible sense of nervousness when you have to do your thing in front of an icon like Stevie Wonder . Or is he such a peaceful sort of i feel like theres a great serenity to him. Does he calm you down . Well, its a i mean you feel nervous for sure, but you also feel inspired to be great because youre around such greatness. And youre like, man, i want to do good for myself, but also for Stevie Wonder. Seth yeah. Yeah. Seth now, ive heard that you come up with your lyrics driving around in a car. Is that has that always been the case for you . Yes, um well actually it started it started i was out with my friend and we were drinking and not drinking and driving. [ light laughter ] but we were drinking, and i didnt have a pen. And my friend was in at his girls house and i was waiting in the car. And i didnt have a pen, so i just started saying my rap in my head and i kept it from there. And ever since then i started writing, this was in the mid90s. Ever since then, i get in the car, ride around, say my raps. I dont write em down. I just say them in my head and i kind of just remember. Its like a method of freestyling. Seth and you can remember it . You dont have to write it down . Yeah, i dont have to write it down. Seth thats pretty fantastic. I guess if they werent worth remembering they would do you the favor of just getting out of your head. They would get out of my head. [ laughter ] exactly. I only remember the good ones. Seth so you have one of these songs is on a fantastic documentary called is it called 13 . 13th, yes. Seth 13th, excuse me. Directed by the selma director ava duvernay, yeah. Seth and how did that come about . How did you end up getting that song on her documentary . Well i found out that she was doing the documentary, she kind of kept it low that she was doing it. But when i found out she was doing it, i said, ava, i have this song i want i want to write a song for this documentary. Because the documentary is about mass incarceration, which is an issue that weve been dealing with a lot here in america and it needs to be resolved. You know, her work inspires me. So i was like, i want to write about it, but i hadnt even seen the film. She was like, okay, but you know theres other people submitting songs. Seth oh, wow, she did you like that . [ laughter ] yeah, she did me like that. Yeah, she did me like that. Seth you had to audition. Yeah i did. I auditioned. We were at the white house. It was barrack obamas, the president s Birthday Party. And i walked up to her and i started rapping in her ear, singing the song. And she was looking at me i mean, she was listening, but she said she was also paying attention to the president and the first lady. [ laughter ] seth yeah. She was like, which one do i Pay Attention to . But i got enough of her attention for her to say, im going to send you the doc and write the song. And, you know, if it turns out well, then youll get to be a part of it. Seth i gotta say, theres probably very few people id be in a room at that id want to pay more attention to if you were rapping in my ear. So that really says a lot about the obamas. [ light laughter ] yeah. The president , yeah. I mean, they definitely usurp me. Seth and it was his Birthday Party . Yeah it was his Birthday Party. Seth now when you go to the president s Birthday Party, do you bring a gift . [ light laughter ] you know its funny enough, i didnt bring a gift. Plus you could barely you know, going into the white house, you honestly can barely bring anything. You dont have a phone. Youve got to empty your pockets, pretty much. Seth yeah. And if i said i was bringing a gift, theyd probably strip search me or whatever. I dont know, so [ light laughter ] seth well, you dont want to show up at the gate screaming, i have something for the president and shaking a box. [ laughter ] exactly. Seth yeah thats not a good ending. So you won an oscar for the song you wrote for selma. Yes. Seth congratulations. Thank you. [ cheers and applause ] seth Oprah Winfrey was a producer on the film. So she was sitting in the same section. And i would love you to clear this up, because you won and as you were walking down the aisle, it looked like oprah went to high five you and you just completely ghosted her. You [ light laughter ] which seems like a terrible career move. Thats a bad career move and i would never do oprah like that. Oprah, if youre watching i would never do you like that. [ light laughter ] you know, it was one of these things where you think somebody youre trying to figure it out, are they giving you dap . Are they about to give you dap or is it the person behind you . Seth okay, gotcha. Right. So i couldnt tell. So i had to take care of myself in that instance and i went to the other person. [ light laughter ] and she ended up, you know, passing me by. Seth right. You know . But, i mean, eventually i told her, look, of course i didnt pass you up. Seth because its an interesting thing you dont know whats worse ignoring her high five or high fiving her when shes not waiting for it. [ light laughter ] i think i would have been on more repeats just getting seth yeah, if you high fived an unsuspecting Oprah Winfrey and she [ light laughter ] that might have been worse. Yeah. That might have been worse. Yeah, yeah. Seth well, congratulations on that. Congratulations on the new album. Its always such a pleasure to see you. Thank you very much for making time.

Seth i feel like if you pull this out, people immediately think youre cool. Seth yeah, youre cool. Or just like when you have an argument on anything, you can just pull it out and say, well, lets just get to the bottom of that. [ laughter ] thats right. Seth congratulations on an Excellent First season of your show. Thank you. Thank you so much. Seth yeah, give it up. [ cheers and applause ] thank you. Thank you. Seth and for those who havent seen it yet, semiautobiographical show about you raising three daughters in l. A. Yep. Seth and which is absolutely wonderful. And one of the things cause you play a good mom on the show. Im assuming youre a good mom in real life. Yeah, im i hope so. I hope im a good mom. Seth but not, maybe theres a distinction, i think, between a good mom and a mom who obsesses about being the best mom. Yeah. Seth and you were talking we were talking backstage about room moms at school. Yeah. Seth i do not know what a room mom is. Okay, let me you guys will get to know this concept. So theres this kind of mania, and when i was a new mom now all my daughters are teenagers. I went to the kindergarten back to school night with all the moms. And so the teacher said, okay, so the room moms are going to come up and make a presentation. And i was like, what the [ bleep ] . [ light laughter ] nobody asked me if i wanted to be a room mom. Seth yeah. I want to be a room mom. And i felt like i was like, this really sucks. So every single year, i would work really hard to like be a room mom, because like seth what does a room mom do . Its like the lady who makes, you know, the things and she sends out the things and the emails or whatever. Seth based on your knowledge of the specifics, you might not have been the best room mom. [ laughter ] the things are almost done. I eventually realized that that was not what constituted being a good mom and i stopped really caring about stuff like that. I called them robot moms. Seth yeah. Like, they would be like, oh my god, we went on the field trip and we had the most awesome docent and we made soap out of leaves and things. And i would be like, oh, well, i guess i [ bleep ] dont rate or whatever. [ light laughter ] i stopped having the frenzy of having to be the room mom and i just went and did things. Seth is the room mom someone who seems like might be in charge of emailing all the other mothers in the world . Yes. She is, she does so this thing, like, you get on this email chain and people are like, you know, i believe we should use the extra 200 for the fun fund for ms. Perry for a vacuum. And i would be and somebody else would be like, here, here and then somebody would be like, you know what, bruce . I really dont appreciate, whatever. And i would be like, get me off of this nightmare [ laughter ] so then i would start, like in my calendar, i just marked room ass [ bleep ] meeting. [ light laughter ] like that would be like the thing. Seth thats a better title. Yeah. And i would stop feeling so insecure and just be like, im okay. Youre doing okay. Seth you famously did voiceovers for cartoons. Thats a job you continue to do. Yeah. Seth and that seems to me to be something that might be very interesting to kids and the friends of your children. Did you ever get asked to talk about that in like a career day . Oh, yes. I do career day every year. Seth are you good at it . Im so good at career day. Seth yeah. [ light laughter ] im amazing. So, what i decided do, is just focus on one thing. And i bring, like, little characters like of the people. Seth uhhuh, yeah. There you go. You can do that. Ill bring like a Bobby Hill Seth yeah, because you were bobby hill on king of the hill. Yeah. Or just like a spinelli. And i bring like the little characters from different cartoons and vidia from tinker bell. And then i pull out my emmy, which is what i won for voiceover, not for acting. Seth yeah. And so i think the kids are going to be all into the figures. And like im in a third grade classroom and im like, im a voiceover actor. And i do voices for all of these cartoons. And this one little boy in the back said, my dad said you play on californication. [ laughter ] and i was like, okay, well, this is vidia. Seth so wait, you obviously, californication, not a show that children should be watching. No, please. Seth did your children were your children aware of it . When you work on a show like that for did they ultimately learn to understand thats the kind of show you do . You know, they were younger when i was doing it. And so they just knew that it was something that mom did that wasnt for them. And so when my oldest daughter started middle school, i kind of sat her down and said, i think some people may be on to me for this. Seth yeah. But if they bring it up to you, im not embarrassed about it. You shouldnt be. And she was like, all right, mom, whatever. [ light laughter ] but one day were in a blockbuster they used to have these stores. [ laughter ] seth yeah. Yeah, its where raccoons live now. [ laughter ] yes. Thats right. Thats right. Seth theyre raccoon cities. So, i was in there with my daughters and of course one of them goes and finds californication. And she comes out with the dvd and shes like, look, mom, its a picture of you and im on all fours [ light laughter ] like this in my underwear. And evan handler is about to slap my ass and im like this and they go, look, mom. And i said, im playing pin the tail on the donkey. [ laughter ] so seth i cant believe totally bought it. Seth what you decided to use the constitution for. [ laughter ] was to represent a Blockbuster Video of californication. Im sorry. I didnt mean it. Seth so you mentioned you have this emmy for v. O. Work. You did bobby on king of the hill. Were there whats the most did you have a particularly because on the show, you do a v. O. For erectile dysfunction, which i imagine somebody who does voiceover work obviously sometimes youre doing products and projects that you would not have chosen for yourself. Was there anything you had to do over the years . Well, i guess the hardest thing ive had to do is like, when you do a toy or a game, its just relentless. And there was one game that i did, and this is when i learned you never start a voice that you cant sustain for at least four hours. [ light laughter ] seth right, yeah. So it was like a female yoda. And it was like [ yoda voice ] you know the federation. And it was, like, tickling the back of my throat. And i just kept [ clearing throat ] so then i just knew from then on that i just had to do something that i could sustain. But doing toys is tough. Seth yeah.
