NOAH.
Today is Thursday, the 19th of
November.
Which means there’s only 62 days
left until 900 hours of Sean
Hannity episodes get deleted
From the White House DVR.
Anyway, coming up on tonight’s
show:
Rudy Giuliani has the worst hair
day of all time, why you should
put a facemask on your
Thanksgiving turkey, and Bill
Gates joins me on the show!
So let’s do this people!
Welcome to "The Daily Social
Distancing Show."
FROM TREVOR’S COUCH IN
NEW YORK CITY TO YOUR COUCH
SOMEWHERE IN THE WORLD, THIS IS
"THE DAILY SOCIAL DISTANCING
SHOW WITH TREVOR NOAH!
♪
Trevor: OKAY.
BEFORE WE GET INTO THE SERIOUS
NEWS, I WANTED TO KICK THINGS
OFF WITH AN ADORABLE STORY THAT
WILL ALMOST DEFINITELY BE TURNED
INTO A SECOND-RATE CHRISTMAS
SPECIAL NEXT YEAR.
WELL, IT MAY JUST BE
NEW YORK’S UNOFFICIAL NEW
HOLIDAY MASCOT.
A SMALL OWL FOUND INSIDE THE
ROCKEFELLER CHRISTMAS TREE TREE.
A WORKER FOUND IT TUCKED AWAY
IN THE BRANCHES.
IT’S A SMALL BIRD CALLED A SAW
WOOD OWL, THE SMALLEST IN THE
NORTHEAST, RECOVERING AT THE
RAVENS BEARD WILDLIFE CENTER.
IT’S GETTING LOTS OF LOVE AND
ATTENTION AND HAS ITS OWN
TWITTER PAGE.
VERY NICE, AND IT’S OWN
LITTLE TURTLENECK, TOO.
Trevor: OH -- MY -- GOD!
CAN WE TAKE A SECOND TO
APPRECIATE HOW FRICKIN’ CUTE
THIS OWL IS?
BABY YODA PROBABLY PUT A HIT ON
HIM AS WE SPEAK.
HE’S SO CUTE, I WANT ONE.
I WANT TO GO GET A LITTLE OWL
RIGHT NOW.
AAAHHH!
THAT WAS A MISTAKE.
OWLS ARE NOT PETS.
BUT, STILL, WHAT A FUN STORY, AN
OWL HITCHED A RIDE TO NEW YORK
CITY -- ALTHOUGH I GUESS IT
LOOKS DIFFERENT IF YOU’RE AN
OWL.
FROM THE OWL’S PERSPECTIVE, WE
MOVED HIS HOUSE.
ONE NIGHT HE’S LIVING IN THE
WOODS, NEXT MORNING HE’S PAYING
MANHATTAN RENT.
HE’S USED TO SNACKING ON FIELD
MICE BUT IN NEW YORK THE ONLY
THING TO HUNT ARE THE RATS WHICH
ARE TEN TIMES THE SIZE OF THAT
OWL.
THE RAT WILL BE SAYING, JUST TO
BE CLEAR, WHO’S EATING WHO?
I DON’T LIKE THE IDEA OF GETTING
THE OWL A TWITTER ACCOUNT.
WE LIKE HIM NOW.
ONCE WE START RIDING THE TWEETS,
WOW, OWL LIVES MATTER?
UNFOLLOW!
LET’S MOVE ON TO DONALD JOE
BIDEN BEAT MY ASS TRUMP.
NONE OF HIS LEGAL EFFORTS TO
UNDO THE ELECTION HAVE BEEN
WORKING, SO NOW HE’S TRYING A
DIFFERENT APPROACH.
YOU MIGHT REMEMBERT THAT,
YESTERDAY, TWO REPUBLICAN
ELECTION OFFICIALS IN MICHIGAN
TRIED TO THROW OUT VOTES FROM
THE ENTIRE CITY OF DETROIT, AND
THEN THEY HAVE TO BE SHAMED INTO
BACKING DOWN.
TURNS OUT THAT WASN’T THE END OF
THE STORY.
BREAKING OVERNIGHT,
REPUBLICAN ELECTION OFFICIALS IN
MICHIGAN CHANGED THEIR MINDS
AGAIN.
FIRST THEY REFUSED TO CERTIFY
THE ELECTION RESULTS IN WAYNE
COUNTY, THEN AGREED TO CERTIFY
THEM.
NOW THEY’RE TRYING TO TO RESCIND
THAT DECISION DESPITE A LACK OF
EVIDENCE.
WE’RE LEARNING DONALD TRUMP
CALLED BOTH OF THEM FOLLOWING
THE MEETING.
TRUMP CAMPAIGN HAS BEEN
PRESSURING BRATT
RATHLINGSBURGER.
ANYTIME TRUMP STIONZ TARGETS A
PERSON PUBLICLY THEY GET DEATH
THREATS AND HAVE TO GET
SECURITY.
HE AND HIS WIFE HAVE RECEIVED
DEATH THREATS.
ARIZONA DEMOCRATIC SECRETARY
KATY HOBBS SAYS SHE’S FACED
THREATS OF ONGOING ESCALATING
VIOLENCE.
THIS SHOWS REPORTERS OUTSIDE HER
HOUSE CHANTING, WE ARE WATCHING
YOU.
Trevor: THAT’S RIGHT,
PEOPLE, DONALD TRUMP, PRESIDENT
OF THE UNITED STATES IS WORKING
TO OVERTURN THE ELECTION.
PEOPLE, CAN WE AGREE THIS IS NOT
NORMAL, SEEING DONALD TRUMP WORK
NORMAL, BUT IT’S HAPPENING.
TRUMP IS PERSONALLY, LISTEN TO
THIS, TRUMP IS PERSONALLY
CALLING ELECTION OFFICIALS AND
TARGETING THEM IN PUBLIC HOPING
TO PRESSURE THEM INTO
OVERTURNING THE ELECTION
RESULTS, WHICH I DON’T CARE WHO
YOU ARE, IT’S DEEPLY DISTURBING
BECAUSE, BEFORE NOW, HE WAS AT
LEAST PURSUING HIS CLAIMS
THROUGH THE COURTS.
YEAH, IT WASN’T FUN, BUT IT WAS
LEGAL.
IT’S THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN
CAMPING ON CALL OF DUTY AND
SMASHING THE CONTROL OVER YOUR
BROTHER’S HEAD.
ONE IS BAT SPORTSMANSHIP, THE
OTHER IS ALL THE.
AND THEY’RE NOT EVEN ANONYMOUS
DEATH THREATS.
WHICH MAKES SENSE BECAUSE TRUMP
WOULD BLOW HIS COVER RIGHT
AWAY -- IF YOU DON’T OVERTURN
THE RESULTS, YOU’RE GOING TO BE
IN BIG TROUBLE!
TREMENDOUS TROUBLE!
PEOPLE TELL ME ALL THE TIME,
WOW, WHAT TREMENDOUS TROUBLE
HE’S IN!
MR. PRESIDENT, I KNOW THAT’S
YOU.
NO, IT’S NOT!
IT’S NOT ME!
IT’S BONALD.
BUT THIS SHOWS THERE’S NO
WINNING WHEN IT COMES TO DONALD
TRUMP.
IF HE DOESN’T LIKE YOU YOU GET
DEATH THREATS.
IF HE DOES LIKE YOU HE GIVES YOU
COVID.
WHILE THE PRESIDENT’S TEAM IS
STILL FIGHTING THE ELECTION IN
COURT, IT’S BECOME CLEAR EVEN
THAT STRATEGY ISN’T REALLY JUST
ABOUT PURSUING LEGAL OPTIONS.
"THE WASHINGTON POST"’S BOB
COSTA REPORTS GIULIANI’S TEAM
KNOWS THE PRESIDENT CAN’T WIN
AND INSTEAD ARE TRYING TO MAKE
SURE THE VOTE IS NOT CERTIFIED.
QUOTE, THEIR END GAME, TO TRY TO
FORCE IT TO THE HOUSE.
IT’S A LEGAL GAME THAT
THEY’RE PLAYING.
IF THEY CAN TIE THIS UP IN
COURT, IF THEY CAN CREATE ENOUGH
DOWRKTS THEN THEY ARE HOPING
THAT THE STATES JUST WON’T
CERTIFY THE ELECTION, AND IF THE
STATES DON’T CERTIFY THESE
ELECTIONS, IT GOES TO THE HOUSE
OF REPRESENTATIVES WHERE DONALD
TRUMP HAS A VERY GOOD CHANCE OF
BEING NAMED PRESIDENT OF THE
UNITED STATES, SO THERE’S A
LEGAL TRICK THEY’RE TRYING TO
PULL HERE, THROW ENOUGH GARBAGE
IN EVERYBODY’S FACE THAT MAYBE
THESE ELECTIONS DON’T GET
CERTIFIED, MAYBE HE CAN STEAL IT
IN THE HOUSE.
Trevor: TRUMP’S SUPPORTERS
ARE TELLING PEOPLE THEY DON’T
NEED TO WIN IN COURT, THEY JUST
NEED TO CREATE A MESSY SITUATION
WHERE REPUBLICAN LEGISLATORS
WILL STEP IN AND OVERTURN
PEOPLE’S VOTES.
FORGIVE ME BUT IT’S SO
ASTOUNDING ME THAT AMERICA’S
LAWS CAN ALLOW THIS KIND OF
THING TO HAPPEN.
THERE ARE ALL THESE SAFEGUARDS,
DOUBLE CHECKS, PROTECTIONS FOR
EVERY SINGLE VOTE, BUT IF A
LEGISLATURE IS A DIFFERENT PARTY
THAN THE WINNER, THEY WILL BE,
LIKE, NO, WE’RE GOING TO PICK
OUR GUY INSTEAD.
IT’S LIKE IF YOU SET UP TWO
AUTHENTICATIONINGS FOR YOU
ACCOUNTS BUT GIVE IT TO VLADIMIR
PUTIN FOR SAFE SAFEKEEPING.
IT’S EXTREMELY UNLIKELY IT WILL
WORK, ALTHOUGH A LOT OF
EXTREMELY UNLIKELY THINGS HAVE
HAPPENED RECENTLY.
IF YOU HAD TOLD ME TWO YEARS AGO
THAT THE NEXT WONDER WOMAN MOVIE
WOULD BE GOING STRAIGHT TO
H.B.O. MAX, I WOULD HAVE SAID
WHAT’S H.B.O. MAX?
ACTUALLY, I’M STILL SAYING THAT.
WHAT IS HBO MAX?
IS THAT THE SAME AS H.B.O. GO?
OR IS THAT H.B.O. NOW, OR IS IT,
LIKE, BOTH OF THEM?
DO I HAVE IT?
AM I ON IT?
ON THE OTHER HAND, WHAT MIGHT
SAVE AMERICA FROM DONALD TRUMP
TRYING TO OVERTHROW THE
GOVERNMENT IS THAT IT’S DONALD
TRUMP TRYING TO OVERTHROW THE
GOVERNMENT BECAUSE HIS PEOPLE
ARE NOT KNOWN FOR BEING THAT
GREAT AT WHAT THEY DO.
I MEAN, JUST TODAY, RUDY
GIULIANI, THE PRESIDENT’S
PERSONAL LAWYER AND SOMETHING
KIDS FEAR IS IN THE CLOSET GAVE
A PRESS CONFERENCE TO EXPLAIN
WHY DONALD TRUMP ACTUALLY WON
THE ELECTION, ALL RIGHT?
THAT’S WHAT HE WAS DOING.
HE WAS TRYING TO EXPLAIN TO US
WHY DONALD TRUMP ACTUALLY WON
THE ELECTION THAT WE ALL SAW HIM
LOSE, BUT WE COULDN’T PAY
ATTENTION TO THIS CONSPIRACY
THEORY BECAUSE WE WERE ALL
DISTRACTED BY THIS --
MANY OF THE ABSENTEE BALLOTS
WERE FRAUDULENT AND THEY KNEW
THAT.
AND THEY DIDN’T WANT TO HAVE
COUNT OF THAT.
200% OF THE REGISTERED VOTERS IN
A DISTRICT VOTE.
WHAT DOES THAT MEAN?
IN THE STATES THAT WE HAVE
INDICATED IN RED -- GEORGIA,
PENNSYLVANIA, MICHIGAN,
WISCONSIN, NEVADA AND ARIZONA --
WE MORE THAN DOUBLE THE NUMBER
OF VOTES NEEDED TO OVERTURN THE
ELECTION.
ALL YOU’VE GOT TO DO TO FIND OUT
IF I’M MISLEADING YOU AT ALL IS
TO LOOK AT THE LAWSUITS.
THAT’S THE REASON WHY HE
PROBABLY DIDN’T HAVE TO GO OUT
AND CAMPAIGN.
Trevor: OKAY, I KNOW THIS
COULD BE THE END OF AMERICAN
DEMOCRACY, BUT, GUYS, THIS SHIT
IS HILARIOUS.
I MEAN, TRUMP ALWAYS SAID THAT
HE HAD LEAKERS IN HIS
ADMINISTRATION BUT I DIDN’T KNOW
IT WAS THIS BAD.
WHAT THE HELL WAS GOING ON WITH
RUDY?
HONEST QUESTION, WAS HIS HAIR
DYE DRIPPING?
WAS HIS BRAIN SHITTING ITSELF?
HONESTLY I DIDN’T KNOW SIDE
BURNS GOT PERIODS.
YOU KNOW YOUR LEGAL STRATEGIES
IS (~BLEEP~) UP WHEN YOUR HAIR
STARTS CRYING ABOUT IT.
IT WAS GOING DOWN BOTH CHEEKS.
HE WAS GROWING A CHIN STRAP
BEARD IN REALTIME.
I’M NOT GOING TO LIE, PART OF ME
FEELS BAD FOR RUDY BECAUSE THIS
WAS THE BIGGEST PRESS CONFERENCE
OF HIS LIFE, HIS BIG CHANCE TO
GET DONALD TRUMP ANOTHER TERM AS
PRESIDENT, AND HIS HAIR RIEWNLD
THE ENTIRE MOMENT.
CAN YOU IMAGINE IF ABRAHAM
LINCOLN WAS READING THE
EMANCIPATION PROCLAMATION AND
HIS BEARD JUST WALKED AWAY?
PEOPLE WOULD HAVE BEEN LIKE,
HEY, YO, YO, YO, FORGET ABOUT
THE SLAVES, MAN, YOUR CHIN HAIR
JUST BOUNCED, B.
YOU GOT TO LOOK AT THAT SHIT.
MAYBE THIS IS THE PER FECK
COMBINATION OF EVIL AND
RIDICULOUS TO END THE TRUMP ERA.
I THINK IT’S PERFECT.
THINK ABOUT IT, IF SOMEONE SAID
IN 2016 THAT THIS WHOLE THING
WOULD END WITH RUDY GIULIANI
OPENLY PLOTTING A COUP AGAINST
THE GOVERNMENT BUT NO ONE WOULD
TAKE HIM SERIOUSLY BECAUSE HE
HAD HAIR DIE RUNNING DOWN HIS
FACE THE ENTIRE TIME, YOU WOULD
BE LIKE, YEAH, YOU KNOW WHAT?
THIS SOUNDS ABOUT RIGHT.
WE’LL TAKE A SHORT BREAK.
WHEN WE COME BACK, WE’LL TALK
ABOUT WHAT CHANGES PEOPLE ARE
MAKING TO THANKSGIVING THIS YEAR
TO SAVE GRANDMA’S LIFE.
AFTER THAT, BILL GATES IS
JOINING ME ON THE SHOW. DON’T GO AWAY.
"THE DAILY SOCIAL DISTANCING
SHOW.
THANKSGIVING IS THE DAY YOU
REMEMBER WHICH OF YOUR UNCLES IS
WEIRD.
ALL RIGHT.
IT’S ALL OF THEM.
BUT WITH THE PANDEMIC HERE,
AMERICA IS TREATING THANKSGIVING
A LITTLE BIT DIFFERENTLY, AND
WE’LL FIND OUT HOW DIFFERENT IN
OUR SPECIAL SEGMENT THANKSGIVING
IN THE TIME OF CORONA.
♪
WITH THANKSGIVING JUST A WEEK
AWAY, THIS IS THE TIME OF YEAR
WHEN AMERICANS WOULD NORMALLY BE
FIGHTING OVER WHETHER TO GET THE
CANNED CRANBERRY SAUCE OR THE
GOOD CANNED CRANBERRY SAUCE.
BUT IN CORONA, THE BIG QUESTION
IS WHETHER TO HAVE THANKSGIVING
AT ALL.
♪
THERE’S NO PLACE LIKE HOME
FOR THE HOLIDAYS, AND THAT
INDULGENT THANKSGIVING FEAST
WITH FRIENDS AND FAMILY, BUT
COAST TO COAST, CASES OF THE
CORONAVIRUS ARE ON THE RISE, AND
TRAVEL PLANS ARE CHANGING.
IN A RECENT SURVEY, 47% OF
AMERICANS SAY THEY’RE GOING TO
CANCEL.
THERE IS GROWING CONCERN THE
UPCOMING THANKSGIVING HOLIDAY
COULD TURN INTO A SUPERSPREADER
EVENT.
NEW YORK’S MAYOR BILL
DE BLASIO ANNOUNCING THE MACY’S
THANKSGIVING PARADE ARE WILL GO
VIRTUAL THIS YEAR.
EXPERTS ARE CALLING THE
HUNDREDS OF THOUSANDS OF COLLEGE
STUDENTS TRAVELING ACROSS THE
COUNTRY FOR THE HOLIDAYS LITTLE
TICKING TIME BOMBS.
Trevor: OH, YEAH!
PERFECT HOLIDAY WEEK FOR CORONA.
YOUNG PEOPLE COME HOME FROM
COLLEGES, PARTY INDOORS AT HOME
DOWN AND LINE UP WITH THEIR
OLDEST RELATIVES?
CORONA WOULD BE ONE MORE SHITTY
THING KIDS BRING HOME FROM
COLLEGE BECAUSE COLLEGE KIDS
ONLY BRINGS HOMES WHAT NO ONE
WANTS -- PILES OF DIRTY LAUNDRY,
SHIGHT TASTY BEER, A BOYFRIEND
WHO TALKS TOO MUCH.
SHUT UP AND PASS THE POTATOES!
I THINK THEY SHALL CANCEL THE
PARADE.
WHY DO I WANT TO WATCH THE
VIRTUAL SPONGEBOB WHEN I CAN
WATCH THE ACTUAL SPONGEBOB?
WHY AM I TOCKING TO YOU WHEN I
COULD BE WATCHING SPONGEBOB?
HA HA, YOU NEVER WIN, SQUID.
BUT WITH THE PANDEMIC, MANY
PEOPLE DON’T WANT TO CANCEL
THANKSGIVING ALTOGETHER.
YOU DON’T NEED TO AS LONG AS YOU
TAKE SIMPLE PRECAUTIONS.
IF YOU HAVE NO CHOICE BUT TO
HAVE DINNER INDOORS, BE SURE TO
OPEN THE WINDOWS.
REALLY LET THAT OUTDOOR AIR
CIRCULATE IN.
IT WILL GET NICE AND COLD BUT
YOU WILL GET A LOT OF AIR
EXCHANGE AND IT WILL REALLY
CREATE THE OUTDOOR ENVIRONMENT
INDOORS.
EAT AT SEPARATE TABLES IF
DINING INSIDE.
THE SAFEST THANKSGIVING WILL
BE SPENT VIRTUALLY APART BUT
TOGETHER.
VACUUM IS TRYING TO HELP OUT.
THEY WILL LIFT THE 40 MINUTE
TIME LIMIT SO YOUR THANKSGIVING
VIDEO CALLS CAN GO ON FOR AS
LONG AS YOU LIKE.
Trevor: WHOA, ZOOM IS
ALLOWING UNLIMITED CALLS?
DO THEY NOT REALIZE HOW MUCH
THEY ARE SCREWING US OVER?
PEOPLE!
THAT 40 MINUTE TIME LIMIT WAS A
GET OUT OF JAIL FREE CARD!
YEAH!
YOU CAN THANK ZOOM THIS YEAR
WHEN YOU’RE ON A THREE-HOUR CALL
WITH YOUR COUSIN EXPLAINING HIS
FOOT SURGERY.
YOU SEE, TREVOR, IT’S CALLED A
METATARSAL, AND IN THE FOOT
THERE ARE MANY BONES, THE
SMALLER THEY CAN BREAK AND
FRACTURE AND CONNECT TO THE
MENISCUS THROUGH THE ACHILLES
TENDON WHICH CAN BE PULLED
SLIGHTLY BUT THE DOCTOR SAID
WHAT?
WE CAN FIX IT!
BUT A LOT OF THESE SUGGESTIONS
ARE SMART, LIKE OPENING THE
WINDOWS IS A GREAT IDEA, IT
IMPROVES VENTILATION AND SOCIAL
DISTANCING BECAUSE, YOU SEE,
ONCE THE ROOM IS FREEZING AND
THE FOOD IS COLD, EVERYONE WILL
GET BACK IN THEIR CARS AND GO
HOME.
I HAVE AN IDEA, INSTEAD OF
PLAYING YOUR ANNUAL TOUCH
FOOTBALL GAME, KEACH SOCIAL
DISTANCE BY PLAYING PAINT BALL.
DON’T TELL ANYONE ELSE YOU’RE
LAYING PAINT BALL.
IF YOU’RE THE ONLY ONE WITH A
GUN, YOU AUTOMATICALLY WIN.
A SMALLER GUEST LIST MEANS A
SMALLER TURKEY, AND WEIRD AS IT
SEEMS, EVEN THAT IS CREATING A
PROBLEM THIS YEAR.
HEALTH OFFICIALS ARE URGING
PEOPLE TO PASS ON THAT BIG
TRADITIONAL LARGE FAMILY
GATHERING.
AND THAT HAS LED TO A WEIRD
DILEMMA.
THERE’S A RUN ON SMALL TURKEYS.
TURKEYS 10 TO 14 POUNDS ARE
IN HIGH DEMAND WITH CONSUMERS
ORDERING PICKED OVER FREEZER
CASES WITH ONLY 20-POUND BIRDS
LEFT BEHIND.
THAT HAS CREATED A SHORTAGE OF
SMALLER BIRDS.
SINCE THE GROWTH TIME OF A
TURKEY STARTS IN A SUMMER IT’S
HARD TO CONTROL THEIR SIZE.
THEY’RE GOING TO GROW AT THE
PACE THEY’RE GOING TO GROW AT.
YOU CAN’T SAY WE’RE GOING TO PUT
YOU ON A DIET, THAT JUST DOESN’T
WORK.
Trevor: ALL RIGHT,
EVERYBODY!
WE GET IT!
WE DISCOVERED THE MOST AMERICAN
PROBLEM OF ALL TIME.
YOU’RE WORRIED EVEN YOUR FOOD IS
TOO OVERWEIGHT?
THAT FARMER IS RIGHT, YOU CANNOT
PUT A TURKEY ON A DIET, BUTT
WHAT YOU CAN DO IS TELL THEM
THEIR HIGH SCHOOL REUNION IS
COMING UP.
THEY WILL BE EATING SALAD WITH
DRESSING ON THE SIDE FOR A
MONTH.
HOW WOULD A TURKEY DIET EVEN
WORK?
LISTEN UP!
THIS IS CALLED A JUICE CLEANSE.
FOR A WEEK, YOU ALL WILL BE
DRINKING LEMON JUICE WITH
CAYENNE PEPPER AND, YOU KNOW
WHAT?
THIS SEEMS MORE NORMAL ON
INSTAGRAM.
NOW THAT I’M SAYING IT IN REAL
LIFE, IT’S STRANGE
( GOBBLING )
BUT EVERYBODY HAS TO EAT THE BIG
TURKEYS BECAUSE IF WE DON’T EAT
THEM THIS YEAR, THAT MEANS THEY
WILL ONLY GET BIGGER NEXT YEAR.
THEN BY THE NEXT YEAR WE’LL BE
WRESTLING THE TURKEY ABOUT WHO
IS GOING IN THE OVEN
( GOBBLING AND SCREAMING )
FINALLY, ONE MORE WAY CORONA IS
MAKING THANKSGIVING MORE
DIFFICULT THAN USUAL.
IF THE WHOLE FAMILY ISN’T
GATHERING AT GRANDMA’S HOUSE
THIS YEAR, THAT MEANS THEY CAN’T
JUST MAKE GRANDMA DO ALL THE
COOKING.
WITH MORE PEOPLE STAYING AT
HOME FOR THANKSGIVING, MORE
AMERICANS WILL BE COOKING FOR
THE FIRST TIME AND THEY ARE
STRESSED.
CAMPBELL’S SHOWS TWO THIRDS OF
AMERICANS ARE DREADING THE
POSSIBILITIES OF AN EPIC COOKING
FAIL.
WITH MORE AMATEUR COOKS
HITTING THE KITCHEN THIS YEAR
ONE FIREFIGHTER SAYS IT COULD BE
A RECIPE FOR DISASTER.
IT’S EASY TO SEE HOW THEY GET
DISTRACTED, WALK AWAY FROM A
STOVE TOP, FROM AN OVEN, AND THE
NEXT THING YOU KNOW IS WE HAVE A
DISASTER.
IF CULINARY ARTS ISN’T YOUR
CALLING, THEN COOKING A
THANKSGIVING TURKEY CAN BE
TRICKY.
THAT’S WHY WHOLE FOODS TEAMED UP
WITH PROGRESSIVE INSURANCE TO
PROVIDE THEIR FIRST EVER
THANKSGIVING TURKEY PROTECTION
PLAN.
IF YOU HAVE A TURKEY COOKING
FAIL, WHOLE FOODS IS OFFERING A
$35 GIFT CARD AS INSURANCE.
ALL CUSTOMERS WILL NEED A
RECEIPT, A PICTURE OF THE FAILED
TURKEY AND EXPLANATION OF WHAT
WENT WRONG.
Trevor: WHOLE FOODS
ACTUALLY WANTS A PICTURE OF A
FAILED TURKEY?
MY ONLY QUESTION IS, WILL THEY
ACCEPT ONE OF THE PRESIDENT OF
THE UNITED STATES?
♪
BUT FOR REAL, THOUGH, MAN, YOU
COULD NOT HAVE A BETTER
EMBODIMENT OF THE PROBLEMS
FACING AMERICA THAN RIGHT HERE.
ON A DAY WHEN PEOPLE GATHER
DURING A DEADLY PANDEMIC TO
BINGE EAT, IT’S THE TURKEY THAT
HAS A SOLID INSURANCE PLAN.
THIS IS WHY I PLAY IT SAFE AND
MICROWAVE MY TURKEY.
IT’S QUICK, IT’S EASY, AND YOU
CAN USE ALL THAT EXTRA TIME THAT
YOU SAVE TO DEAL WITH THE
SALMONELLA YOU CONTRACT.
LOOKS LIKE, CORONA OR NOT,
AMERICA WILL FIND SOME WAY TO
CELEBRATE THANKSGIVING
THANKSGIVING THIS YEAR.
BUT PLEASE, NO MATTER HOW YOU DO
IT, JUST TRY AND BE AS SAFE AS
YOU CAN BECAUSE THIS PANDEMIC IS
NO JOKE, AND THE MOST IMPORTANT
THING ABOUT THANKSGIVING IS
MAKING SURE THAT YOU ARE AROUND
FOR THE NEXT ONE.
ALL RIGHT, WHEN WE COME BACK,
BILL GATES WILL TELL ME WHY THE
INTERNET THINKS THAT HE’S TRYING
TO BRAINWASH ALL OF US. YOU DON’T WANT TO MISS IT.
SO EARLIER TODAY, I SPOKE TO
BILL GATES.
WE TALKED ABOUT THE CORONAVIRUS,
WHEN THE VACCINE WOULD ARRIVE
AND HOW LONG IT WILL BE BEFORE
WE’RE BACK IN THE STREETS
KISSING STRANGERS AGAIN.
BILL GATES, WELCOME BACK TO "THE
DAILY SOCIAL DISTANCING SHOW.
GOOD TO SEE YOU.
Trevor: YOU LAST JOINED US
ON THE SHOW, I WOULD SAY IT WAS
ABOUT SEVEN MONTHS AGO, AND
SEVEN MONTHS AGO, JUST LIKE
DR. FAUCI, YOU SAID YOU WERE
WORRIED BECAUSE YOU FELT LIKE THE WORST WAS YET TO COME.
A LOT OF PEOPLE ACCUSED YOU OF
PED LICKOFPED LICK FARE AND TERR
WHY DOES IT SOUND LIKE WE’RE
WORSE AT HANDLING THIS?
A COUPLE OF THINGS ARE
WORKING AGAINST US.
FIRST IS WITH THE WINTERER,
WE’RE COLDER, THE VIRUS
MULTIPLIES AND WE’RE INDOOR
MORE.
THAT’S NOT GOOD.
THERE’S A CERTAIN FATIGUE,
CERTAIN THINGS PEOPLE HAVE HAD
TO DO IN STAYING AWAY FROM
FRIENDS, THAT’S TOUGHER.
THIS ROUND, EUROPE IS GETTING
BETTER COMPLIANCE WITH THE
RESTRICTIONS THAN THE U.S. AND
THEY’RE STARTING TO SEE A
DOWNTURN.
Trevor: WHEN YOU TALK ABOUT
THE COMPLIANCE AND THE DOWNTURN,
SHOULD WE BE LOOKING AT THE
VIRUS CASES OR SHOULD WE BE
LOOKING AT THE DEATHS?
I NEVER KNOW WHICH ONE IS MORE
IMPORTANT.
THE NEWS IS LIKE 5 MILLION,
7 MILLION, THEN SOME DOCTORS
SAY, YES, BUT FEWER PEOPLE ARE
DYING BECAUSE WE KNOW HOW TO
TREAT IT.
HOW SHOULD WE BE LOOKING AT THE
VIRUS AND THE FIGHT WE HAVE
AGAINST IT?
WELL, THE CASES ARE THE
LEADING INDICATOR.
IT IS TRUE THAT CASES ARE
TRANSLATING INTO LESS DEATHS FOR
TWO REASONS.
ONE IS THAT THE CASES ARE MORE
IN THE YOUNG PEOPLE WHO ARE LESS
LIKELY TO BE VERY SICK, AND THE
OTHER IS THAT THE QUALITY OF
TREATMENT INCLUDING SOME NEW
DRUGS LIKE DEXAMETHASONE HAVE
BEEN PROVEN OUT.
SO WHEN YOU DO GET HOSPITALIZED,
YOU HAVE A HIGHER CHANCE OF
SURVIVAL.
BUT, YOU KNOW, WE’RE PREDICTED
TO GO BACK UP TO OVER 2,000
DEATHS A WAY IN THE MONTHS
AHEAD.
SO FOR THE NEXT SIX TO EIGHT
MONTHS, THE NEWS IS MOSTLY BAD.
AFTER THAT, THE VOLUME OF THE
VACCINE WILL HAVE KICKED IN AND
THEN WE’LL HAVE -- YOU KNOW,
THERE’S LIGHT AT THE END OF THE
TUNNEL.
Trevor: WOW.
I MEAN, THE QUESTION IS, THEN, I
THINK, FOR A LOT OF PEOPLE, IS
HOW LONG IS THAT TUNNEL, HOW BAD
DOES THAT TUNNEL GET AND HOW DO
WE STOP IT FROM BEING THE WORST
POSSIBLE TUNNEL.
ONE TO HAVE THE BIGGEST THINGS
PEOPLE ARE WORRIED ABOUT IS THE
TRANDIGS BETWEEN JOE BIDEN AND
DONALD TRUMP.
YOU’VE WORKED WITH GOVERNMENTS
ALL OVER THE WORLD WORKING ON
THEIR VACCINE DISTRIBUTION,
HEALTHCARE AROUND THE PLANET,
YOU KNOW HOW IMPORTANT IT IS FOR
ONE ADMINISTRATION TO TALK TO
THE NEXT WHEN IT COMES TO
HANDING OFF ON THEIR PLANS.
HOW MUCH DO YOU THINK THIS WILL
ACTUALLY AFFECT AMERICA’S
RESPONSE IF THERE ISN’T A
TRANSITION?
WELL, IT’S YOU BE FORTUNATE
THAT, YOU KNOW, THE CURRENT
ADMINISTRATION GOT TIED INTO A
POSITIVE NARRATIVE THAT, YOU
KNOW, WE’RE TURNING THE CORNER
IN THAT YOU NOW HAVE THIS
TRANSITION.
IT WILL MAKE THE MESSAGE A LILT
LESS CLEAR.
THIS IS WHEN YOU WOULD LOVE TO
SEE THE BEST C.D.C. PEOPLE ON TV
REMINDING US ABOUT SOCIAL
DISTANCING AND MASKS, YOU KNOW,
AND PARTICULARLY WHEN THERE IS
THAT FATIGUE OUT THERE. SO LEADERS AT ALL LEVELS, THIS
IS A CHANCE TO STEP UP, EVEN
THOUGH POLITICIANS ARE
ENCOURAGING FRIENDST THAT, YOU
KNOW, WE DON’T WANT THIS
ADDITIONAL 700,000 DEATHS, YOU
KNOW, IT WOULD BE TRAGIC TO BE
THE LAST PERSON WHO DIES, YOU
KNOW, WHEN THE VACCINE IS
ABSOLUTELY ON THE WAY, AND, YOU
KNOW, SO I THINK THE GOOD NEWS
SHOULD DRIVE COMPLIANCE, NOT
LAXITY.
Trevor: AS SOMEBODY WHO’S
DONE WORK GLOBALLY AROUND
HEALTHCARE FOR SO LONG,
ESPECIALLY AROUND INFECTIOUS
DISEASES, WHAT IF YOU FOUND
CONVINCES COMMUNITY MEMBERS TO
BUY INTO METHODS THAT KEEP THEM
SAFE?
WE HAD VACCINE RESISTANCE
WITH POLIO AND THEY’RE GETTING
RELIGIOUS LEADERS TO SPEAK OUT
TO HAVE THEM VISIBLY VACCINATING
THEIR OWN CHILDREN.
FOR A WHILE IT LOOKED LIKE WE
HAD NEVER STOPPED POLIO IN
AFRICA BUT IT’S NOW CERTIFIED
THREE YEARS WITHOUT POLIO.
ACTIVATING THE TRUST HIERARCHY
AND GETTING RID OF THE
CONSPIRACY POLITICAL ELEMENT AND
REMINDING PEOPLE IN THIS CASE
IT’S ABOUT SAVING LIVES, AND IN
THAT CASE IT’S ABOUT KIDS NOT
BEING PARALYZED, WHEN YOU GET
PEOPLE BACK TO THAT VERY HUMAN
IMPACT IF WE DON’T BEHAVE WELL,
I THINK, YOU KNOW, THEN IT WILL
OFTEN COME THROUGH.
Trevor: IT’S INTERESTING
THAT YOU BRING UP CONSPIRACIES
BECAUSE CONSPIRACY THEORIES
ABOUT YOU ONLINE ARE INSANE ON
SOCIAL MEDIA, AND SOCIAL MEDIA
HAS PROPAGATED THEM IN A WAY
THAT BILL GATES IS TRYING TO
CREATE VACCINES SO HE CAN
CONTROL YOUR MINDS AND HE WANTS
TO VACCINATE EVERYBODY SO HE CAN
IMPLANT -- I THINK THEY SAID
YOU’RE GOING TO CHANGE OUR DNA
SO WE TURN INTO SOMETHING AND
WORK FOR YOU SOMEWHERE -- I
DON’T KNOW THE FULL STORY, I’M
STILL LEARNING IT.
WHEN YOU SEE THESE THINGS, FIRST
OF ALL, HAVE YOU BEEN ABLE TO
TRACK WHERE IT COMES FROM, AND
SECONDLY, I KNOW YOU THINK ABOUT
THESE THINGS, YOU’RE ONE OF THE
BIGGEST THINKERS I KNOW, HAVE
YOU EVEN THOUGHT ABOUT THE
MOTIVATION?
BECAUSE I’VE ALWAYS TRIED TO
FIGURE OUT WHO BENEFITS FROM A
CONSPIRACY THEORY, AND FEW
THOUGHT ABOUT HOW MANY PEOPLE
WON’T GET A VACCINE BECAUSE THEY
BELIEVE CONSPIRACY THEORIES.
USUALLY WHEN YOU WORK ON
INFECTIOUS DISEASES LIKE
DR. FAUCI, YOU’RE KIND OF
OBSCURE.
NOBODY TALKS MUCH ABOUT T.B. OR
MALARIA.
SO HERE WE HAVE THIS COMPLETE
TURNAROUND WHERE, VACCINES, ARE
THEY GOOD FOR PEOPLE ARE NOW
FRONT AND CENTER, AND THERE’S
ALWAYS BEEN A SMALL GROUP OF
ANTI-VACCINATION PEOPLE, AND WE
SEE THIS WITH MEASLES VACCINE.
THEY’VE NOW GONE ON A PLATFORM
AND JOINED FORCES WITH SOME
POLITICAL CONSPIRACY VIEWS, AND
IT’S SO EASY TO CLICK ON,
PARTICULARLY WHEN A SIMPLE
EXPLANATION FOR THIS PANDEMIC,
OH, THERE IS SOMEBODY EVIL
BEHIND IT, YOU KNOW, IS SOMEHOW
EASIER THAN, YOU KNOW, THE TRUE
BIOLOGY, WHICH IS ACTUALLY KIND
OF COMPLICATED.
SO, YOU KNOW, WE HAVE TO MAKE
THE TRUTH MORE INTERESTING, AND,
YOU KNOW, WE’VE GOT TO LABEL
THINGS WITH THE TRUTH, AND,
SADLY, THE NAIVETY ABOUT HOW TO
MAKE SOCIAL MEDIA WORK WELL IS
PRETTY STRONG, AND THAT’S
COINCIDED WITH THE ELECTION AND
THE EPIDEMIC.
I WISH I HAD THE ANSWER, BUT,
YOU KNOW, IT’S OUT THERE IN BIG,
BIG NUMBERS AND HASN’T -- IT
JUST KEEPS GROWING.
Trevor: SO WHEN WE LOOK AT
THE VACCINE NOW, I MEAN, THAT’S
NOW THE STORY.
NOW THE WORLD IS WAITING FOR THE
VACCINE BECAUSE THE VACCINE
BECOMES THE KEY THAT UNLOCKS THE
DOOR.
AS YOU SAID, THE LIGHT AT THE
END OF THE TUNNEL.
THE QUESTION THEN IS HOW DO
PEOPLE GET THE VACCINE, HOW
EFFECTIVE WILL THE DISTRIBUTION
METHOD BE AND HOW DIFFICULT IS
THAT?
WELL, THE VACCINE IS GOING TO
BE IN SHORT SUPPLY.
THE GOOD NEWS IS THAT THERE’S
FOUR OTHER VACCINES THAT ARE
LIKELY TO GET APPROVED FAIRLY
QUICKLY AS WELL.
THE FACT THAT PFIZER WORKED SO
WELL MAKES US OPTIMISTIC ABOUT
THE OTHER COMPANIES, WHICH THOSE
ARE CHEAPER AND MUCH EASIER TO
SCALE AND DON’T RECALL THAT COLD
CHAIN, SO WE’LL HAVE A LOT OF
VACCINES, AND WE NEED TO
PRIORITIZE PEOPLE AT RISK --
ELDERLY PEOPLE, PEOPLE WHO WORK
IN NURSING HOMES -- AND EACH
COUNTRY WILL HAVE TO DECIDE,
OKAY, WHO GOES FIRST.
THAT’S STILL A LITTLE BIT
CONFUSED IN THE U.S., BUT
HOPEFULLY WE’LL GET THAT
STRAIGHTENED OUT VERY, VERY SOON
BECAUSE THE VACCINE IS LIKELY TO
BE SHIPPED A LOT IN THE MONTH OF
DECEMBER.
Trevor: AS YOU SAID, THE
ANTI-VACCINE COMMUNITY HAS ONLY
GROWN OVER TIME.
I THINK THE U.S. IS NOW THE
BIGGEST HUB OF ANTI-VAXXERS IN
THE WORLD.
IT STARTED AS A FRINGE THING
WITH MEASLES AND WITH
CORONAVIRUS AND POLITICS IT’S
BEEN AMPLIFIED.
SOME PEOPLE ON THE LIBERAL SIDE
WILL SAY I DON’T TRUST THE
VACCINE, IT WAS MADE UNDER
TRUMP.
OTHERS WILL SAY I DON’T TRUST
THAT VACCINE, THAT CAME FROM JOE
BIDEN AND THE DEMOCRATS, THEY’RE
TRYING TO BRAINWASH US.
A LOT OF PEOPLE WON’T WANT TO
TAKE THE VACCINE WHICH MAY GO
TOWARDS EVERYTHING WE’VE WORKED
ON.
HOW DO YOU GO ABOUT MAKING SURE
THE VACCINE IS SAFE AMIDST THIS
POLITICAL CRISIS?
IT’S CLEAR THE F.D.A. WENT
THROUGH THE PROFESSIONAL STAFF
THERE ALL THE THINGS THEY’RE
SUPPOSED, TO LIKEWISE PFIZER.
THERE’S EVEN AN EXTERNAL
COMMITTEE THAT WILL WEIGH IN TO
MAKE ABSOLUTELY SURE THE
POLITICAL DESIRE TO GET THIS
QUICKLY DID NOT INFECT THE
EFFICACY AND SAFETY REVIEW, AND
I FEEL VERY CONFIDENT BECAUSE
THE PEOPLE INVOLVED ARE REALLY
DOING THEIR JOB WELL.
WE DON’T NEED EVERYONE TO TAKE
THE VACCINE.
SOCIETY WILL HAVE TO DECIDE IF
THERE ARE SOME JOBS LIKE GOING
TO A NURSING HOME, YOU KNOW, AND
TAKING CARE OF SOMEBODY’S
GRANDPARENTS, WHETHER THAT
PERSON, YOU KNOW, HOW STRONGLY
YOU ENCOURAGE THEM TO HAVE A
VACCINE SO THEY’RE NOT SPREADING
THE DISEASE.
BUT WITH THIS LEVEL OF EFFICACY,
IF WE CAN GET TO 75% DOSED, THEN
YOU WILL BLOCK THE SPREAD OF THE
DISEASE.
WITH MEASLES, YOU WOULD HAVE TO
GET TO, LIKE, 95% BECAUSE IT’S
EVEN MORE INFECTIOUS.
BUT THE GOOD NEWS HERE IS THAT
WE JUST NEED THAT MAJORITY.
I THINK AS PEOPLE SEE PEOPLE
TAKING THE VACCINE AND THEY SEE
THAT THE SIDE EFFECTS IF ANY ARE
VERY, VERY RARE, THAT CONFIDENCE
WILL BUILD, AND THAT WILL BE
GOOD FOR SOCIETY BECAUSE, WHEN
YOU TAKE THE VACCINE, YOU’RE
HELPING TO PROTECT OTHER PEOPLE.
Trevor: DON’T GO AWAY.
WHEN WE COME BACK, WE’LL HAVE
MORE OF MY INTERVIEW WITH BIGOT. BILL GATES
SHOW.
HERE IS PART TWO OF MY
INTERVIEWF WITH BILL GATES.
LET’S TALK ABOUT CLIMATE CHANGE
BECAUSE THAT’S ANOTHER ONE OF
BILL GATES’ PASSIONS, ANOTHER
THING BILL GATES HAS BEEN DOING
FOR A LONG TIME.
YOU HAVE STRANGE HOBBIES.
I PLAY VIDEO GAMES.
YOU DO MALARIA AND CLIMATE
CHANGE.
LET’S TALK A LITTLE BIT ABOUT
THAT.
HOW MUCH HAVE WE GONE BACKWARDS
IN THIS PERIOD IN TERMS OF
FIGHTING CLIMATE CHANGE ANDT
WHAT DO YOU THINK ARE SOME TO
HAVE THE CONCRETE STEPS WE CAN
TAKE THAT MOVES US TO A PLACE
WHERE WE’RE NOT JUST DESTROYING
OUR HOME OR PLACE ON THE PLANET
BUT ALSO ARE ACKNOWLEDGING
PEOPLE HAVE JOBS TO THE CURRENT
WAY WE MAKE ENERGY.
THE GOOD NEWS IS THERE’S
AWARENESS AS A PROBLEM IN THE
U.S. IS GOING UP.
OUR PRESIDENT-ELECT CARES A
GREAT GREAT DEAL ABOUT THIS
ISSUE.
HE MAY NOT GET THE FULL AMOUNT
OF MONEY HE TALKED ABOUT BEING
IDEAL, BUT IF WE PRIORITIZE THAT
MONEY ON INNOVATION, NEW WAYS OF
MAKING CEMENT AND STEEL, THEN I
VIEW IT AS A VERY SOLVABLE
PROBLEM.
SO IT’S A LOT LIKE THE PANDEMIC
WHERE INNOVATION IS WHAT WILL GET US OUT OF THIS.
WE HAVE TO INCENT, THE PRIVATE
SECTOR, PARTICULARLY VERY
INVENTIVE PEOPLE, TO GIVE US
THESE SOLUTIONS, AND THE
GOVERNMENT OWES IT TO US TO GET
THE BEST SCIENTISTS, THE BEST
EXPERTS AND INVEST EARLY ON SO
THAT WE’RE NOT GETTING INTO THE
PROBLEM BECAUSE, ONCE CLIMATE
CHANGE COMES, YOU CAN’T GET OUT
OF IT.
THERE’S NOT LIKE A VACCINE FOR
THAT.
SO I’M REALLY PLEADS IT HASN’T
LET THE AGENDA OF ALL YOUNG
VOTERS OF BOTH PARTIES AND, SO,
YOU KNOW, I’M HOPING DURING THE
NEXT FOUR YEARS TO MAKE SURE THE
PRIORITIZATION OF THE HIGH
IMPACT SPENDING IS THERE.
YOU’RE RIGHT, WE HAVE TO TRY AND
CREATE NEW INDUSTRIES IN ANY
PLACE WHERE THE SWITCH AWAY FROM
HYDROCARBONS IS GOING TO HURT
THE ECONOMY.
Trevor: DO YOU THINK THAT
MAYBE PART OF THE PROBLEM WITH
GETTING EVERYBODY ON BOARD
CLIMATE CHANGE IS THEY HEAR DOOM
AND GLOOM, THEY HEAR THE PLANET
WILL BE DEAD IN 10, 15 YEARS,
AND THE PLANET IS STILL AROUND
AND THEY GO, OH, CLEARLY THIS IS
NOT REAL.
WELL, WHEN I LOOK BACK AND
SAY WHY DIDN’T MY WARNINGS ABOUT
THE PANDEMIC LEAD TO MORE
ACTIVITY, YOU KNOW, I HAVE TO
SAY, YOU KNOW, SHOULD I HAVE
MADE THE GRIMNESS EVEN MORE
VIVID OR, YOU KNOW, TOLD MORE
PEOPLE THAT BAD NEWS?
SO IF YOU WANT PEOPLE TO PREPARE
IN ADVANCE, YOU REALLY DO HAVE
TO AT LEAST IN SOME WAYS SHOW
THE POTENTIAL NEGATIVE OUTCOMES.
Trevor: RIGHT.
NOW, WE CAN COUPLE THAT WITH,
HEY, WITH INNOVATION, YOU CAN
CREATE THE HIGH-PAYING JOBS, AND
THE U.S. IS RICH ENOUGH THAT WE
CAN MAKE THE TRANSITION EVEN FOR
THE AREAS THAT ARE NEGATIVELY
AFFECTED, NOT SUPER SEVERE, IF
WE’RE ENLIGHTENED ABOUT THAT.
HAVING THE COMMON BASE OF FACTS,
LIKE IS CLIMATE CHANGE A
PROBLEM, IS IT HARD TO SOLVE,
YOU KNOW, WAS THERE REALLY A
CHANCE OF A PANDEMIC COMING?
THERE, YOU WANT TO BUILD A
CONSENSUS, AND ONCE YOU GET
THINGS UNDERWAY, I AGREE
EMPHASIZING, LIKE, THE HEROES IN
THE FRONT LINE ON THE PANDEMIC,
THE GREAT SCIENTISTS, YOU KNOW,
WHO CREATED THIS WAY OF MAKING
VACCINES, IT’S GOING TO HELP US
WITH LOTS OF OTHER DISEASES,
EVEN CANCER, THOSE POSITIVE
STORIES WILL HELP PUSH US
THROUGH AND MAINTAIN WHAT, IN
THE CASE OF CLIMATE CHANGE, WILL
BE A MANY-DECADES OF HARD WORK
TO CHANGE THE INDUSTRIAL ECONOMY
SO THAT THERE ARE NO EMISSIONS
AND HELP COUNTRIES POORER THAN
US THAT CAN’T AFFORD A PREMIUM
PRICE.
Trevor: I KNOW I’M GOING TO
RUN OUT OF TIME WITH YOU, SO I
WANTED TO CHAT WITH YOU ABOUT
ANOTHER VENTURE BILL GATES IS
JUMPING INTO AND THIS ONE IS
INTERESTING BECAUSE WELCOME TO
THE BANDWAGON, BILL, YOU’VE
LAUNCHED A PODCAST!
YOU HAVE A REALLY INTERESTING
PODCAST YOU ARE CO-HOSTING WITH
RASHIDA JONES.
I LOVE THIS.
YOU’VE GOT BILL AND RASHIDA AND
YOU’RE ASKING BIG QUESTIONS.
YOU DO SEEM SO DIFFERENT YET
HAVE MANY SIMILARITIES.
YOU BOTH WENT TO HARVARD, I
BELIEVE, RIGHT?
THE ONLY DIFFERENCE IS SHE
ACTUALLY GRADUATED.
VERY IMPRESSIVE.
Trevor: THE QUESTION I HAVE
IS DO YOU SOMETIMES FEEL A
LITTLE INADEQUATE HOSTING WITH
RASHIDA WHEN YOU ARE A COLLEGE
DROPOUT?
I FEEL MORE INADEQUATE
BECAUSE SHE’S SO ARTICULATE,
SHE’S AN ARTIST, AND I LIKE TO
GIVE OUT LOTS OF NUMBERS, WHICH
ARE BORING AS HE CAN.
Trevor: I THINK THE WORD
YOU’RE LOOKING FOR IS NERD.
YEAH, I’M THE NERD.
ALTHOUGH, SHE LIKES TO READ,
TOO, BUT IT’S A GOOD BALANCE.
IT WAS A LOT OF FUN DOING IT
WITH HER.
SHE’S NOT AS OPTIMISTIC ABOUT
THE FUTURE AS I AM.
I’M TRYING TO BRING HER AROUND.
YOU KNOW, WHETHER IT’S THE
PANDEMIC OR CLIMATE CHANGE,
TALKING TO HER ABOUT, YOU KNOW,
THERE IS A PATH.
Trevor: THERE IS A PATH.
IT’S FUN.
DR. FAUCI IS YOUR FIRST GUEST.
IT’S A REALLY FUN PODCAST.
IT’S FUN TO HEAR THE BOTH OF YOU
AND THE DYNAMIC YOU HAVE.
I HOPE A LOT OF PEOPLE WILL TUNE
IN BECAUSE IT’S A DIFFERENT WAY
TO LISTEN TO THE CONVERSATIONS.
AS FOR YOU JOINING ME ON THE
SHOW, THANK YOU FOR TAKING THE
TIME.
THANK YOU FOR THE WORK YOU’RE
DOING, GOOD LUCK WE’VE THING
INCLUDING THE CONSPIRACY
THEORIES AND HOPEFULLY I’LL SEE
YOU ON THE OTHER SIDE OF THE
TUNNEL.
HOPEFULLY IN PERSON SOME DAY.
BYE-BYE.
