You're listening to Comedy Central. Hey,

0:05

what's going on, everybody. I'm Trevor Noah and

0:07

this is the Daily Social Distancing Show.

0:10

Today is Tuesday, March, which

0:13

means it's officially springtime. Baby.

0:15

Yep, that time of the year when I go outside

0:18

and enjoy that sweet fresh air despite

0:21

my allergies. Oh

0:24

no, here it comes anyway.

0:27

Coming up on tonight's show, we look at

0:29

some actual good things going on in

0:31

the world, what Hollywood gets wrong about

0:33

the female orgasm, and Eric Andre

0:36

joins us to talk about punking America in

0:38

his brand new movie, So let's do this. People.

0:40

Welcome to the Daily Social Distancing Show

0:45

from Trevor's couch in New York City to

0:47

your couch somewhere in the world. This

0:50

is the Daily Social Distancing Show with Trevor

0:53

nor. Every

0:56

day on the Daily Show we cover

0:58

the News day Show,

1:01

and if you follow the news daily, you know

1:03

that most of it is bad and some days

1:06

it's even more badder. And

1:09

it's on those days that I like to remind myself

1:11

that there is a lot of good out there in the world,

1:14

and I like to share that good news in our

1:16

array of sunshine,

1:23

our first ray of Sunshine is for dogs,

1:26

creators of the world's most populous sex

1:28

position. Across the country,

1:30

there are thousands of good boys

1:32

just waiting to be adopted, and

1:34

one equally good human boy is

1:37

giving them a boost. A fourteen year

1:39

old found a way to help a lot

1:41

of shelter dogs. His name is Darius. Brownie

1:43

helps him stand out in the crowd with bow

1:46

times. Darius is so hundreds

1:48

of bow times and sent them to animal shelters

1:50

across the country looking sharp. And there

1:52

aren't just for dogs, because he makes them for cats

1:54

to there you go. He says he's donated

1:56

about six hundred bow ties for animal

1:59

shelters. Shelter workers say it helps the animals,

2:01

especially older ones, get noticed more

2:03

quickly. It's very smart. Oh

2:06

guys, A bow tie

2:08

on a dog. That's something

2:10

you don't expect, you know. It's

2:12

like shrimp tails and cinnamon toast

2:14

crunch, but adorable. And this

2:16

is a genius plan because a bow tie

2:19

just makes everything a little snazzia, you

2:21

know, dogs, people on

2:24

the bow ties. A simple bow tie

2:26

could even make like a raging douche bag SeeMe

2:28

respectable, which is, by the way, how took the

2:30

calls and got a TV show. The only problem

2:32

is you will ever know why the dog

2:35

has a bow tie on it. I mean,

2:37

is it fashion? Or did that dog

2:40

join the Nation of Islam?

2:42

Some old, nice white lady is gonna be bringing

2:44

her dog home. Like speak sparky speak

2:47

speak or what a surprise? The white

2:49

devil wants me to speak on command.

2:52

Moving on to the coronavirus vaccine.

2:55

That's the only thing on earth that's stored colder

2:57

than dipping dots. Every day more

3:00

and more people are vaccinated, but after a

3:02

year of being extremely cautious, some people

3:04

can't quite bring themselves to accept the

3:06

good news because it's been so long.

3:08

I mean, even when I smile, I'm like, oh no, my

3:11

frown turned upside down? Is that a COVID symptom?

3:14

So here's a ray of sunshine about a grandmother who was

3:16

anxious about doing what she could often getting vaccinated,

3:19

and how her doctor helped her overcome

3:21

it. Some people say the best medicine

3:23

is love for one woman in the bronx, that's

3:26

just what the doctor ordered. Take a look at this prescription.

3:29

This is what Evelyn Shaw got. It reads

3:31

you are allowed to hug your granddaughter.

3:34

It comes after both of them were fully

3:36

vaccinated, My daughter and granddaughter

3:39

came to my apartments because

3:43

they had a gift to me. To my

3:45

amazement, was a prescription

3:48

from my doctor, and she wrote,

3:51

you are allowed to hug your

3:53

granddaughter. That

3:56

hug is a hug annoyed to remember

3:59

forever. Okay,

4:03

you've gotta admit this is such a

4:05

heartwarming story. I mean, unless

4:07

we find out that that's

4:09

the doctor's treatment for everything, I'm

4:12

afraid it's lupus. So

4:14

what you're gonna need to do is go and hug this woman's

4:17

grandma right away twice

4:20

a day. Now. Yes, it is true

4:22

that the doctor was out of network, so that hug will

4:24

cost eight dollars, but I'm still happy

4:26

that this grandma got to see her family before

4:29

she files for medical bankruptcy. And actually

4:31

really shows you how much people respect the authority of doctors.

4:34

I mean, once they write a prescription, there's no

4:37

more arguing it's a prescription. Doctors

4:40

could make that work for them to ship. If

4:43

I was a doctor, I just going to a bank with my prescription

4:45

pad. Good afternoon, I have a

4:47

prescription for you here that says you need to

4:49

open the safe and hand me all the cash,

4:52

Well, I guess if it's for my health.

4:54

Now, look, until everyone can get vaccinated,

4:56

it is still important to monitor the spread

4:59

of the coronavirus so you can stop any

5:01

outbreaks before they get too far. And

5:03

now getting a coronavirus test

5:06

is going to be easier than ever. Door

5:08

Dash will soon be delivering at home COVID

5:11

tests across the United States. The delivery

5:13

apps teaming up with two health companies, Vault

5:15

Health and every Well in

5:18

twelve US market. Door Dash says

5:20

delivery of the FDA proof test kits will typically

5:22

take less than an hour, they cost us over a

5:24

hundred dollars each, and they can return results

5:27

in twenty four to eight hours.

5:29

Yes, thanks to door Dash, you

5:31

can now get a COVID test delivered right

5:33

to your home along with I'm assuming

5:35

forty packets of ketchup. And door Dash

5:37

isn't the only one helping. By the way, UBA

5:40

has started offering COVID tests

5:42

too. Yeah, if you get in

5:44

the car and you can smell weed,

5:46

you just tested negative, my friend, congrats,

5:49

And let me just remind everybody right now that

5:51

your delivery driver is not responsible

5:54

for your test results, all right,

5:56

because you know there are people out there who are gonna base

5:58

their reviews on that. What

6:01

you're telling me that I have COVID, dude,

6:04

one star, bitch, I'm not the one

6:06

who coughed on you. Moving on to a

6:08

ray of sunshine from the world of racism.

6:10

Yeah, even racism. Black people

6:13

in America have been waiting for slavery reparations

6:15

for a hundred and fifty years, and

6:17

to put that in terms of white people can understand, that's

6:19

even longer than you've been waiting for the next

6:21

Game of Thrones book. But now residents

6:24

of one city are finally getting

6:27

their first taste. The nation's

6:29

first reparations program for African

6:31

Americans was approved overnight in Illinois.

6:34

The Chicago suburb of Evanston is

6:36

moving forward with a ten million dollar plan

6:38

to address a history of discriminatory housing

6:41

practices faced by its black residents.

6:43

The first step, which passed last night, makes

6:46

four thousand dollars available for homeownership

6:48

grants and mortgage assistants. This plan

6:51

could become a model that more cities could

6:53

follow. That's right, people, Reparations

6:56

are happening. With these

6:58

housing grants, Black Americans can

7:00

finally fulfill their lifelong dreams of

7:02

gentrifying on white neighborhood. And

7:05

kudos to Evanston, Illinois, especially

7:07

since I assume whoever the Evans guy the city

7:10

was named after was a huge racist. In fact,

7:12

let me check that before I assume, get

7:14

some Wikipedia out and yep,

7:17

huge racist. Here's my thing, though, It's

7:19

great that some of the funding is going towards practical

7:21

things like aiding home ownership, but keep in mind

7:24

black people have been through a lot of ship in America

7:26

over the last four hundred years, so some

7:28

of that money should also just be to give

7:30

black people a good time, you know, help them relax,

7:33

like going to the spa or getting a facial

7:35

or buying a stress ball for whenever Kanye West tweets

7:37

something. Basically, what I'm saying is it's

7:39

not real reparations unless you give

7:41

the descendants of slavery actual money

7:44

and let them choose how they

7:46

want to spend it as if they were adults.

7:50

But still, congratulations to the black

7:52

people of Evanston, and congratulations

7:55

to all the white people who are going to find a way to game the

7:57

system. Well, my twenty three in

7:59

me says that I'm actually three

8:01

percent Africa so

8:04

and finally some uplifting animal

8:07

news. Like most of US, zoo

8:09

animals have been stressed out by

8:11

the coronavirus lockdowns, stuck

8:13

in their homes for a whole year, and they

8:16

don't even have Netflix. I mean, imagine

8:18

being a tiger and not getting to watch Tiger

8:20

King. That's the ultimate fomo. But

8:23

now a zoo in Colombia is

8:25

giving it stressed out residents a

8:27

musical treat. Columbia's Cali

8:30

Zoo hired a pianist to help relax

8:32

its animals. On Saturday, Mario

8:34

Fernando Prato came to the zoo

8:36

and played some of the most popular classical

8:39

songs for animals, ranging from Zebras

8:41

to Alliance to Flamingos. Preto

8:44

says this was certainly a different from

8:46

his usual gigs. The z said Prato

8:48

was their debut artists and hoped he

8:51

paved the way for other musical acts.

8:53

And I'm so jealous right now. Now

8:57

that is a beautiful idea,

8:59

And I'm actually sure that this was very relaxing

9:02

for all of the animals, although

9:04

you can't tell by looking at an ostrich, you know, you

9:06

can't see when that animal is relaxed. Just as one

9:09

facial expression, which is always realizing

9:11

you left your phone in a cab, and

9:16

as an added bonus for the zoo, a

9:19

piano concert is probably going to

9:21

keep all the Zebras in line.

9:25

Can you imagine them during that performance? They were looking

9:27

at those black and white keys, like, what have

9:29

they done to Jimmy? Oh?

9:31

They've cut them up and now they're making

9:33

music come out of his body. Just

9:36

because you kidnapped the Zebras from Africa and keep

9:38

them in Colombia doesn't mean they're not African

9:41

anymore. So look, I

9:43

think this was great for everyone.

9:46

I mean, the only person I feel a little bad for is

9:49

the piano player. This probably

9:51

wasn't the career that he dreamt of when

9:53

he started playing the piano. Mama,

9:56

you remember how you said I would never make it

9:59

as a musician. Oh my god?

10:01

Did you make it into the Philharmonic? What?

10:04

No wrong number? Okay, never

10:07

mind, bye bye? Now say

10:09

what you want, but this story is adorable.

10:12

And you know who loves adorable stories is

10:15

my friend Roy Withoo Junior. I want to bring him on

10:17

right now. Um,

10:19

you're right. What's going on, my dudes?

10:21

Man? What's going on? Man? I

10:24

know you love playing piano, so I wanted

10:26

to see if you heard the story of the pianist

10:29

who got a gig playing for zoo

10:31

animals. Yeah, I heard about it, trash.

10:34

I hate the story a matter of fact, I hate that dude.

10:37

But but why I thought,

10:39

of all people, you would think it's cute. I

10:41

don't like it. Travel I also auditioned

10:43

for the gig. Then they decided to go with

10:45

some guy playing mozart.

10:49

Mozart. Oh, so

10:52

you auditioned to play piano for zoo

10:54

animals? What whatnot? It's a sweet

10:56

job. You get to work outside to get free

10:58

parking, you get all the stale peanut the elephants

11:00

don't eat. And I wrote all these great

11:02

original songs for the animals with the zookeepers.

11:05

The zookeepers decided my songs

11:07

weren't appropriate. Wow, Roy,

11:10

I'm man. I'm sorry for that, brother,

11:12

like I'm sorry that they didn't like

11:14

your music. Yeah, man, it is

11:16

what it is, man, I have some good hits. Man, check

11:19

check this out. This is good songs, man, Heathing

11:24

normals. You gotta eat all

11:26

of the zoo keepers r

11:30

fucking show oppress

11:35

keepers up. Gobble, gobble,

11:37

gobble gobble.

11:40

No, Roy,

11:44

hold on, hold on, hold on, that's

11:47

that's what you were singing. You can't you can't sing

11:49

that. You can't be telling the animals to eat the zookeepers.

11:51

Now, that's that's promoting violence. But no, dude,

11:54

that the words I haven't singing is just nonsense. I'm just

11:56

I can say them worries for rhythm. You know the animals can't

11:58

understand English. Well, actually that's that's

12:00

a good point. It's not like you're like telling

12:02

them. Yeah, no, play on, my

12:05

bad man, my bad bad. Where

12:07

was that? What was that? Man? Come

12:09

on, I

12:11

know you understand me. I've

12:15

been teaching you in secret for several

12:18

months. There's a weak part of the

12:21

fence next to the gay

12:24

break it down and new monkey

12:26

on the rest. Okay,

12:34

Roy, chumping, that's the line chomping. Yeah,

12:36

I think that's part of the problem that Roy, You see you,

12:39

I understand that zoos have ethical problems, But you

12:41

can't be you can't be telling the lines

12:43

to go and eat people. Like, why are you even

12:46

doing? What are you planning? Planning? Don't

12:48

be so paranoid, Trevor, It's just music.

12:51

He then lies, let's

12:55

school eat what

12:58

am I doing on your back? Then I'll

13:00

take you to his house and

13:02

you can eat everyone except

13:05

me, and I'll be the

13:07

geer lie and means

13:10

unless you eat me too, that

13:13

would not be nice. But that's

13:15

a problem for leader. I'm

13:21

glad they didn't take your songs of the Zoo man. You

13:25

know why because your

13:27

song is a ship. That's why told

13:29

about gobbling me and eating me as well as all

13:31

of your music is trash. That's

13:33

cruel, bro, and I could

13:36

get mad about it, but you know what, I've

13:38

been working on myself. I'm willing

13:40

to bury to hatch it. So let's talk about

13:42

it tomorrow. Meet me at noon at

13:44

the Zoo. What No, I'm not gonna meet you

13:46

at this I know what you're planning. Roy. You want me to come

13:48

to the zoo so I can sing these songs with you.

13:50

I'm not stupid, Roy, Get out of here. Roy

13:53

with Junior everybody. He's not gonna get

13:55

me that easy. All right, we're gonna take a short

13:57

break. But first, if your college basketball

14:00

is as busted as everyone else's is, it's

14:02

not too late to go all the way in the

14:04

daily shows brackets of bullshit,

14:07

where you can vote for the little things that have annoyed

14:09

you the most during the pandemic, because

14:11

I know it's been a legitimately terrible year, but

14:14

let's be honest, there hasn't been a lot of trivial

14:16

problems that we didn't need on top of the really

14:18

bad stuff, you know, like celebrities singing

14:20

imagine or emails that start

14:22

with in these difficult times so

14:25

annoying. I think that one could

14:27

actually go all the way. Round two is open

14:29

now, so go to Daily Show Bracket dot com

14:31

and make your picks. When we come

14:34

back, Daisi Ling takes a look at the history

14:36

of the female orgasm in movies.

14:40

You don't want to miss it. Welcome

14:43

back to the Daily Social Distancing Show. March,

14:46

as you know, is Women's History Month, and

14:48

to celebrate we turn to Daisielde, where

14:50

she doesn't explore his story but

14:53

his hurry.

15:01

It's no secret that women's on screen

15:04

portrayals have evolved throughout history.

15:06

We've gone from playing secretaries being

15:08

saved by James Bond all the way

15:10

to nuclear scientists being saved

15:13

by James Bond. But I want to focus

15:15

on one specific aspect of female

15:17

depictions, the orgasm.

15:20

It's when a woman is stimulated to

15:22

the point of climax, causing a physical and neurological

15:25

response that scientists referred to as

15:27

fantastic, and over the years,

15:29

depicting female pleasure on screen is

15:31

something that's changed more than the batteries

15:34

in your vibrator. The first known

15:36

female orgasm on the silver screen

15:38

was in the nineteen thirty three German film

15:40

Ecstasy, when Hetty Lamar took

15:43

the broad Worst Express all the

15:45

way to pleasure Burgh. Turns out

15:47

the world wasn't ready for this. Everyone

15:49

denounced it, from Hitler to the Pope,

15:52

And if you ask me, the Pope has no place weighing

15:54

in on sex scenes. He's celibate. I mean,

15:56

when we need your opinion on the best stayin removers

15:58

for white fabrics, then we'll call you. Unfortunately,

16:01

being the first actress to climax on screen

16:03

followed Hetty Lamar for the rest of her

16:05

career, she was typecast as the

16:08

seductress, even though she was literally the

16:10

smartest person in Hollywood. Yeah.

16:12

As her side hustle, she was a brilliant

16:14

scientist who invented the basis for all

16:16

modern wireless technology.

16:18

Without her, no one would be orgasming

16:20

because we wouldn't be able to watch porn on our cell phones

16:23

in the bathroom. And that was the last

16:25

big on screen female orgasm

16:27

for a while, because around the same time the

16:29

Hayze Code was enforced in Hollywood. This

16:32

was a set of censorship guidelines that banned

16:34

movies from explicitly showing or discussing

16:36

sex. Even married couples had

16:38

to be shown in separate beds, or as

16:40

it's now called, the reverse chocolate

16:42

factory before you bedridden.

16:45

For the past twenty years, it takes a lot of work to

16:47

keep this family going. No one was

16:49

getting off. The Hayes Code finally ended

16:51

in the late sixties, which, as timing

16:53

goes, is like having your dry January

16:55

and at an open bar in Cabo America

16:58

was embarking on a actual revolution,

17:01

so female pleasure came back on screen. Unfortunately,

17:04

it was often treated as a novelty that

17:06

existed for men's amusements, So you've got scenes

17:09

like the one in nineteen Barbara

17:11

Ella where evil doctor eyebrows

17:13

over here traps Jane Fonda and a machine

17:15

that's supposed to give her orgasms until she

17:17

dies, except that she climax is

17:20

so hard she breaks the machine

17:23

goodness. At the time, it was

17:25

considered a camp be sexy thing,

17:27

but looking at it now, it's a violation.

17:30

Remember, everyone, if you're going to put a woman

17:32

in a machine that orgasms her to death, unique

17:34

consent first. Another major moment

17:37

came a few years later with the movie Deep Throat.

17:39

It tells the story of a woman who keeps giving

17:42

men oral sex because her pleasure zone

17:44

is in her throat. That is

17:46

not how it works. But Deep

17:48

Throat became the first porno film to go mainstream

17:51

and inspired both my uncles to become Dennis

17:54

the female orgasms and Barbararella and Deep

17:56

Throat were basically male fantasies

17:58

about how women experience pleasure, so

18:00

it was appropriate that the next on screen

18:03

orgasm to make a splash totally debunked

18:05

those fantasies. Nine,

18:07

When Harry Met Sally famously includes

18:09

an extended scene of Meg Ryan faking

18:11

an orgasm in a Delhi to prove to Billy

18:14

Crystal that maybe he wasn't the

18:16

cunnelingest king that he thought he was. Oh

18:19

yes, yes, yes

18:22

oh. This

18:24

scene was groundbreaking for a few

18:26

reasons. It told all the women watching

18:29

who had faked orgasms that they weren't alone.

18:31

It taught men to try to be attentive to their

18:33

partner's needs, and it catapulted pastronomy

18:36

to become the top aphrodisiac of nineteen

18:38

eighty nine. It also started a conversation

18:41

about the performative nature of the female

18:43

orgasm. Women face far

18:45

too much pressure to satisfy their partner's

18:47

ego instead of themselves. I mean, no

18:49

one ever has to fake it for their vibrator. If

18:51

they don't get the job done, they just go back into the drawer

18:54

and they think about what they did. In

18:58

the years that followed, female pleasure

19:00

became more and more common on screen,

19:02

but they were still often treated as punchlines,

19:04

like Jennifer Aniston getting unexpected

19:07

magic him Maxes includes Almighty,

19:09

or Katherine Hygel accidentally orgasm

19:11

me at dinner when a little boy grabbed her remote

19:14

controlled vibrating underwear. Okay,

19:16

there is so much wrong with this. It's

19:19

non consensual, it's a kid doing

19:21

it, and it perpetuates the dangerous myth

19:23

that vibrating underwear gives you anything

19:25

but a five alarm electrical bird. And

19:28

even when orgasms weren't meant to be funny,

19:30

it could be hard to take them seriously, like

19:33

in Forty Days and Forty Nights when Josh Hartnett

19:35

makes his partner orgasm by caressing

19:37

her with flowers, which, believe

19:40

me, is not that easy. Not

19:42

to be a size queen, but we're gonna

19:44

have to use at least a sunflower. The

19:46

odds weren't a step forward for orgasms,

19:49

but they weren't a step back either. They

19:51

still needed to step a little

19:53

to the side, now the other side,

19:56

then back and forth. Yeah,

19:59

right there. Thankfully,

20:02

in the present day, we're starting to see much more

20:04

realistic and positive depictions of

20:06

women pop in their Turkey timers. These

20:09

days, you can hardly turn your TV on without

20:11

seeing a woman getting off. And finally,

20:13

movies and shows are doing this through the female

20:16

gaze. And if you don't know what that would

20:18

look like, then you haven't seen Bridgertain.

20:21

It's a show about nineteenth century British

20:23

society taking care of their little

20:25

women. She's a Beth in the streets,

20:27

but a Joe in the sheets. Thanks

20:30

to Bridgertain, there haven't been this many female

20:33

orgasms since well since

20:35

everyone started watching Bridgertain. So

20:38

that's the history on the female orgasm

20:40

on screen, and who knows what the future holds,

20:42

but it is important because the way

20:44

women are portrayed on screen holds

20:46

a mirror up to how they're treated in real life.

20:49

And as all women know, sometimes

20:51

holding up a mirror to something is the only

20:53

way to get a good look and figure

20:56

out how it works. Thank

20:58

you so much, DISSI All right, when we back, the hilarious

21:01

Eric Andre will be joining me on the show,

21:03

so don't go away. Welcome

21:06

back to the Daily Social Distancing Show. Only

21:09

esterday I spoke with comedian and actor

21:11

Eric Andre. We talked about going from

21:13

punking celebrities on his adult swim talk

21:16

show to punking regular people

21:18

in his brand new film Bad Trip. Eric

21:21

Andre, Welcome to the Daily Social Distancing

21:23

Show. My man Trevor

21:26

Noah in the house.

21:31

Wait, can I can I tell you something? Do you know that

21:33

Alex Jones might

21:36

have gotten us confused?

21:38

Now? You're much more handsome than me, so I don't want to left

21:40

handed insult you. But Alex Jones,

21:43

when I prayed him one time,

21:46

right at the Republican National Convention,

21:49

he kept saying, got the Daily Show

21:51

guy up here, Bring the Daily up

21:53

there? And I was like, which

21:55

guy Wyatt Snach Trevor,

21:58

who is he? I don't know who he thought

22:00

I was. Yeah, no, I'm yeah,

22:03

Now I could get I would be like, yeah, you know if

22:05

we ran around the RNC, and

22:07

then I'd be like, I would even give people that. I would

22:09

go like, yes, I would use

22:11

you to get away from a crime right now, That's what I'm saying.

22:14

So if like, if something happened, I would go,

22:17

well, what if it was him? And like I would

22:19

you know that dramatic scene in the movie where the

22:21

people go you sure it was him? I'm sure.

22:23

Then you're like, well, there he is, and then you stand

22:25

up in the courtroom and the person's like, oh, it's that person.

22:28

That's what I would do. I could do that right now. Yeah.

22:30

I wouldn't blame you. Yes, you've

22:32

been you've been in lockdown for a while. There's

22:35

this few people I worry about more than

22:37

you, because I feel like Eric

22:39

Andre is like the guy of things happening

22:42

always. Are you like, has

22:44

this has this thing made you go crazy? Or are

22:47

you coping with the with the lockdowns. I've

22:49

definitely drank way more

22:52

in the last year than I ever have

22:54

in my life. I'm talking like Jack Carroll

22:57

Wack Charles Bluekowski level

22:59

of alcohol. I built

23:01

a bar in my house. I'm losing my

23:03

mind, but I

23:06

feel great because

23:10

I'm drunk by like two

23:13

pm every day. So you

23:15

know, I was just in

23:17

that zone. I mean that zone. Man,

23:19

I'm just crushing up, biking in and making pina

23:22

coladas. I never know how much of

23:24

this is like you being like you know, like

23:26

eric Andre is the one person where I feel like you

23:29

may be in a situation one day when you need someone's

23:31

help, but they wouldn't know if you're

23:33

being eric Andre. Eric Andre needs help.

23:35

I know. It's like where does the stick

23:38

end and the man begin kind

23:41

of thing. Yeah, and you know what, I just remember, my

23:43

mom is going to watch this. Um, so

23:46

Mom, I'm not I'm not drinking as

23:48

as much as I just told Trevor

23:50

I was drinking. I'm drinking

23:53

u V eight. Okay,

23:56

I just added my mom is a super fan.

23:59

Well, Hi, hi mom, Hi mom

24:02

um, My mom is very

24:04

attracted to you. By the way, my mom and

24:06

my sister, they would

24:08

rip your clothes off in a second. You wouldn't know

24:10

what hit you. Oh wow, I wouldn't know

24:12

what hit me. To be honest, I ever

24:15

said that to me before my mom and

24:17

my sister would do I wouldn't know what hit me. Well,

24:21

for some reason, the generational jumps adds

24:23

to the to the confusion. For me. You

24:25

could get into a very weird

24:27

porno at the Andre residence if

24:30

you wanted to. I'm just putting that out

24:32

there. Offer is on the table.

24:35

Put it out there. Let's talk about the movie

24:37

eric Um Bad

24:40

Trip. This movie. Yeah,

24:42

I mean, people have been waiting forever for this movie.

24:45

You know, it's been It was pushed back like three times

24:47

because of the pandemic. I think even

24:49

Amazon leaked it by mistake on

24:51

Prime and then had to pull it back. And then it

24:53

felt like the whole thing was a prank. And then I

24:56

found out that the movie was a movie,

24:58

but it's also like a like a hidden camera frank

25:00

because there's real people in the movie. But then you've

25:03

got like a narrative going. It's an actual story, which

25:05

is very good. By the way. At first I was like, oh, this is just Eric

25:07

messing around, but it's actually like a good story.

25:10

And then you're pranking real people. Surely

25:12

that's harder to make them just a normal movie. It's

25:15

incredibly hard because not only are

25:17

you not only were we pranking the

25:19

people, but we were getting plot

25:22

from the people were pranking. We're relying

25:24

on them for exposition to lead

25:26

us into the next scene. So I'd have

25:28

to like prank somebody and then talk

25:31

to them for like an hour and a half just

25:33

to like squeeze two lines of

25:35

dialogue out of them to get to the next

25:37

scene. So it was no small feat.

25:39

But yes, it is a narrative, hitting

25:41

camera prank movie with

25:44

myself and Tiffany Haddish and little Rahbry.

25:47

Yes. Something I've always want to know when you're making these kinds of movies

25:51

when when you prank the people, they have to agree

25:53

to be put on screen off like they have to

25:55

sign a release or something after after

25:58

you Yeah, But then like, why do people because

26:00

a lot of the people in the movie don't look the

26:03

best, right, why would

26:05

they say yes? Um, they don't

26:07

always say yes. You will see some blurrs in

26:09

the movie, but uh, they

26:11

say. You know what's funny, The

26:14

people that are the angriest when

26:16

you prank them are usually

26:18

the most relieved to find

26:20

out it's a prank and have the

26:23

best sense of humor, Like this guy pulled

26:25

a knife out on rel and I and

26:27

then once we revealed that it

26:29

was just a prank, he was like, ah,

26:31

man, y'all are hilarious.

26:34

Yeah, signed the release, no problem.

26:36

So I don't

26:38

know, it's insane. It's insane. I don't know. Um,

26:41

you'd be surprised. You can really and

26:43

getting the releases signed, it's an act of seduction.

26:47

You really got it. We got it down to a science. Yeah,

26:50

okay, So I get, like, I get on your side. I

26:52

get it, like you, this is you. I mean

26:54

you, You've You've hosted a TV show where

26:56

you've naked and destroyed your desk.

26:58

You've hosted a TV show with this like five as in the studio

27:00

you Eric andre I get how on

27:03

earth is little Ll apart of this thing? Because

27:05

I know Roll, he's like he's like acting

27:07

and he's he's he's a funny, serious guy. But I don't

27:09

see him putting himself in danger though. Yeah

27:12

you know he His very

27:14

first frank that

27:16

he filmed was the one where, um,

27:19

the guy pulled the knife out on us. So we

27:21

did this prank. Where are you know our characters,

27:25

our penises get stuck in a Chinese finger

27:27

trap. And we

27:29

went to this like really hood barbershop

27:31

in Atlanta and we asked this real barber

27:34

who was cutting the guys there for sisters

27:36

were like, excuse me, sir, were stuck

27:38

at the Chinese finger trap? Did you've got us out

27:40

of this thing? And the guy went into

27:42

like a murder rage because we're

27:44

like stretching the penis is back and forth.

27:47

He grabbed, he tried to get his gun, he

27:49

grabbed and grabbed a knife, chased

27:52

this out, tried to stab us, and we could barely run

27:54

in the contraption. And that's

27:57

Rell. That was not only the first day of production,

27:59

but that was the first time Rel ever shot

28:01

at hitting camera prank in his life, and

28:04

he almost died. So he quit. He quit day

28:06

one, and then he called

28:08

Tiffany Hattock, who wasn't even in the movie at the

28:10

time, just to vent like, Eric's

28:12

gonna get me killed. I'm doing this hitting camera prank

28:15

movie. I almost lost my life. And

28:17

then she thought that was so funny

28:19

that she called me afterwards and

28:22

was like, Yo, you almost got Rell killed. I

28:24

want to be in your movie. I live for that. So

28:29

in a weird way, that was how we got the cast

28:32

together. I mean, that's one

28:34

way to get a cost together. I

28:36

almost killed someone, and that's really how I got

28:39

George Clooney on this film.

28:41

It was really crucial. Uh. And

28:43

in doing that um where

28:46

you from him, you think you want to make more

28:48

of these movies because I enjoyed it. I

28:50

was. I was surprised, as like, this is this is actually

28:53

fun? Thanks man. It's

28:55

like it's much longer

28:57

than your normal eleven minute episode. But I was like,

28:59

this is this could be a thing. This

29:01

could be like a running you know, you should do

29:03

it in other countries as well. Sure,

29:05

let's go to South Africa. They'll kill

29:08

you. You

29:11

think you can't. Are

29:13

you tell me there's there's violence in South

29:15

African You can't let me tell you something, Eric

29:17

Andrey. All these things you do with Americans,

29:20

South Africans will kill you. And then someone will go

29:22

to was a prank and they'll be like, ah,

29:25

that was funny, Well you're

29:27

dead now. I'm sorry

29:29

When you were doing your penis thing in my face, I

29:31

didn't know it was a prank and I'm sorry. Some South

29:34

Africans might even be like, we'll kill you, even though

29:36

we know it's a prank. They'll be like, yeah,

29:39

well then that would make for great content. We

29:41

gotta get down there, grabbed the

29:43

cameras off

29:46

to Johannesburg. We

29:48

only get the film one scene because I die.

29:50

It'll be a three minute movie. But uh

29:53

yeah no, I would love to keep making more of this

29:55

stuff. Yeah, totally. I hope you do, and

29:59

don't do it in so that because you'll die, and also because

30:01

people will think I'm the one doing it, and

30:03

then it will be a whole thing where like

30:05

people be like we saw Trevor Nowha in South Africa

30:07

running around with this preious sooner Chinese finger

30:10

trap. I don't need that in my life, or

30:14

do you? You never know, Eric
