engines on the plane, wheels falling off the plane. it's a very scary time i'm just saying, everybody, be careful when you're out there flying. it's still the only way to go and i'm still getting on a plane, but i'm more nervous than i've ever been before. >> i, agree. >> you think about anyway, we got a ton of show for you tonight. i'm worried because i'm flying this weekend. that's why his top of my mind, former senator doug jones and cnn's kaitlan collins, you've seen her will join us to talk about their home state of alabama, which you've been paying attention is having a bit of a moment right now, charles is laughing because this is your state. >> this is my home state. this is where you were born? yes. leaves alabama? yes. are you feeling proud? are you feeling how are you feeling about alabama? we're >> going to get into a little bit feeling grief, not feeling great at all to be honest with you. >> okay? yes. >> that thought were also minutes away from talking his super producer mark ronson is his name. he is a guy behind. i'm just ken. you sought the moment we all remember from this weekend's oscars, i swear i've felt this performance through the screen didn't you >> listen, ron gaza? i didn't

know he could sing like that. yeah. but the car graphy, it was the amazing as we saw for been a deir in the background, >> now this is a thing, you know, this movie, this song almost didn't make it into the movie. let's see what market does it say about that? and snl's legendary kenan thompson is here? >> yes. he's going to explain to us how his charles barkley is better than r charles barkley so the first time you saw him, do you were you offended? did you think it was funny? did you laugh? >> i laughed out loud. he that? i think it's an awesome being when people in personal aide to him and frank, kelly endo have done me frank office. it just does two boys but i take it as a great compliment. you got to laugh out loud. so you >> weren't sitting there a little nervous like, i wonder how this has gone go you didn't have that >> let's say maybe can you i was a basketball player people people who in the limelight do one thing that's really, really

stupid, which is they take this up, way too serious. yes, i agree. where two serious? yes. >> saved me a couple of times. and when you're sitting there, you're like, i hope it's going be funny, but you're right. i think you have to laugh at yourself. >> you have to, you really do. >> but i think we have to start with an unexpected twist. it happened in the 2024 race, broke news yesterday, and charles has been pretty vocal. you've been very vocal about your lack of enthusiasm as him for the candidates. >> yes. >> you did mention last week that you're leaning towards joe biden, but i just wanted to say there may be another option for you. another option according to the new york times, did you see this story? rfk junior, noted conspiracy theorists and vaccine skeptic says he's interested in former governor jessie, the body ventura or aaron rodgers as his running mate so do you know either one of them? >> i know jesse really well and i take him, you see him as a vp? i think he's an awesome guy. yeah. i've been i know him. he was back in his raslan days. i suspect some time when he was governor of minnesota, i

think he's got a pure heart i don't know a lot about aaron rodgers, but i'm a big jesse ventura fan >> well, just earlier this evening on cnn, aaron rodgers has also been a very noted vaccine skeptic was reported on jake's show, jake tapper show, that he also had some conspiracy theories about sandy hook now i feel very strongly about that sandy hook, the school shooting in connecticut and sandy hook at sandy hook elementary in newtown, connecticut several children die. 26 people, 20 of them children, they were little six-year-olds, five six-year-olds still had their baby teeth. the fact that he could say he is told people, this is according to reporting earlier this evening that he that he thought it was a government inside job and that those children were actors. that's him saying, i think it's insane. and i also think charles, it's so painful and so hurtful. i interviewed many of those families there is no way no way anybody could believe that they were actors. and i hope that's not an aaron feels today. but the fact that he even said that back then, i think is very true. i

>> think that other f2 alex something alex jones, loss of money the first of all, that is just craziness. and anybody who thinks that you hope nobody ever thinks that. >> yes. >> it's just painful for the parents. >> that's all i could think >> about is the pain that anybody who think that i would think there'll be insane. i'm not going to lie to you have to be saying that think that for the record, aaron rodgers declined comment tonight, which also says to me if somebody said that that about me and i hadn't said, well, i'm ready did we have another conspiracy theory true? we're talking about drama and powerful families and those dynamics. well, the story where that has a lot of conspiracy theories has swept the globe is actually happening right now in england. the big question is, where is princess kate? where is kate middleton? we talked to some people on the street today what do you think is happening with kate middleton >> okay. so >> there's been a hot topic and my >> job today, it's a little weird. it's very sad and now i

think people are kind of scared. she's like missing or something. i don't know. i think something is really happening with her. >> there's like all these cheating scandal, controversy theories i think she's on the masked singer. >> you think she's on the mass singer? >> she's got to be i do know that all the pictures look photoshopped. >> people are like dan's are things that the last time the princes so of wales made a public appearance, it was around christmas time and at the time the palace announced that she was having abdominal surgery. and since then, we've heard nothing more. and the conspiracy theories are really getting crazy this weekend, kensington palace released this photo. they were trying to actually ease some of the worries, but that only made it worse, it backfired big time when it was discovered that the photo had been altered now, i thought this was much ado about nothing they were saying when you zoom in, you can see charlotte's sleeve, the daughter. you can see the sleeve isn't where it should be when i'm looking at that picture, i'm not even sure what i'm looking at to be honest with you. the zipper on kate's sweater, they said is misaligned in a post from the official social media account

of the prince and princess since of wales. kate apologize for the error and she says this, like many amateur photographers, i do occasionally experiment with editing. so this is the thing charles, they put it out there because they wanted to let it put it to rest. but when people felt that the photo had been doctored, they said, well, if everything is okay with her, even if she he's recovering and peoples and she recovering, it, if you why would you dr. photo, what do you say about that? >> i'm so disturbed by this whole situation and what not want to hope she's fine. >> yes, i do, too. >> i don't think >> she's fine >> that's the only reason you were sitting out a fake picture there on the so much stressed or rows are like every single thing they do, every single day is news. and that's unfortunate, but that goes with the job. >> yeah. >> and it obviously kill princess diana and mr. phi. >> i know her family believes that. well, when you're running around >> say that's no deed for the

paparazzi to be chasing exactly right? >> moving on from kate, let's turn now to the song and performance of the moment >> you all saw it. if you watched the oscars and if you didn't watch the oscars, i know you heard about it because it gets it's an earworm. i just heard a sound back there >> i'm just ken. did you hear it? >> i did. are you ready to spring into action on liver? >> yeah. i'm just kidding. and i'm a ten >> and he's a ten anyway, that's brought down the house at the oscars. you remember this moment all. right ryan gosling, i love this song so much paying homage to marilyn monroe. everyone's favorite ken, that's ryan gosling dazzled in a pink suit, surrounded by his fellow cans from that blockbuster movie,

right now, we have one of the masterminds behind this hidden song super uber producer there he is mark ronson congratulations mark, welcome, welcome, welcome. and king charles. >> thanks so much. it's a great to be here really is. >> i wonder what you must be thinking because i saw kingsley two. nights before the performance at one of those oscar parties. and he said, wait till you see what we're going to do sunday. he said, i can't even tell you anything about it. but we've been in rehearsals and you're not going to believe what's going to happen on this date and mark, he was right he was right. >> he what? he was absolutely right. and he had seen more than i did because i don't even in the music rehearsals and these guys have been dancing where her son choreography, they were changing dance moves at like 11:00 a.m. on sunday, you know, like the fact that this all came together and even the rehearsal was it was great, but it had this sense of like, uh, we're going to pull this off like this. there's so many moving parts and i couldn't

believe it just the way that it came out is just incredible. >> this is, this an oppenheimer had been a two biggest movies of the year by far. what are you surprised by this? success? number one of the song, but also the movie >> i mean, when i read this script, i just it had so much hot. it had laughs gratis, such a great filmmaker, i thought it was going to be a good movie. i had no idea. it would be so huge and you know, even going into it when we first got the dua lipa to come in and sing dance the night. and we were just like, wow, if that's the only song we get, this is going to be great. we have dua, lipa, the superstar. >> and then >> when billie eilish finneas wrote their song and charlie xix and sam smith and all these people started to bring lizzo, these sounds like this is a really great, this soundtrack is going to be pretty special. >> you know, what's so

interesting, because billy and phineas, as you know, won the oscar. but one of the critic says, when you lose the oscar, but you win the show, i saw an interview with billie eilish and she said that performance gave me live. this is the oscar winner talking about your show, talking about your song. so did greta come to you to do the song or did you go to greta? how didn't even come about >> because i heard it all. >> murphy. >> yeah, greta and i had had a meeting. she was like, i'm doing this barbie film and i need to songs the beginning. there was just going to be two songs. his big dance number so which is what became dance the night would do it and we need a song from ken's point of view. there was never anything in the script that ryan was going to saying there was never a moment. we thought like maybe it will play over the end credits a song about ken and his pain or whatever. and then wrote this song with my, with my partner and greta loved it. she played it for ryan and she's like, i we're gonna put this in the film. ryan's going to sing it. so we were this is there any started filming? we couldn't believe that they were suddenly going to put this

in. it was such a, it was amazing. so it was all very like it was really unplanned. >> i know. but marc, tell me what that moment was like for you on stage number one, i got to kick out a you wearing pink let's just start with that. everybody is wearing pink, but i got to kick out a you wearing pink. but how ryan starts in the audience and then it became an audience sing along that just gives me goose bumps. watching that at home, it came through through the screen he's he's he's he's really smart. he has such a great comedic mind, ryan, and he said he pretty much had the whole thing in his head when we first started talking about where we may be going to do this, he's like, yeah, i'm thinking maybe i'll start an audience now, walk through, but i don't think even, you know, even when in the last row house he was like, what if nobody gets up and stands out like, you know, and then at that moment a minute in limits even starts to walk towards the front and everybody just lifted up. i remember thinking like, oh, he's going to be okay. and then when he went in the crowd and everybody

was singing in mind scorsese dancing. it was it was such a celebration, but it was all from his energy like he's just such a great size, just kennedy, but he's such a great singer perform and he's so well loved. i feel like that's a lot of what has to do with it. >> you know, what all does access, you had, what individuals singular you just named a bunch of people on the soundtrack and everything >> but again, a song >> song at the oscars has got to be a different type of pressure. i mean, other in a super bowl is probably the most watched event in the world. did you feel that type of pressure? >> i think so, definitely. i mean, i definitely felt to have her ryan, you know, because he's he's not a single he doesn't have to prove himself. he has sort of everything to lose and nothing again, if it doesn't go well, you know, me, i'm just playing the bass. i can i'm pretty sure you and confident about that, but i just thought, yeah, the way that yes, of course, it's such an honor to be to be nominated

the oscars is like one prize from songs. you know, the whole night. and then to perform on that stage was amazing because even when out my songwriting partner and i, we wrote shallow with lady gaga even though it was amazing, and we've got to win. we didn't perform that night, so this was a whole different kind of thing >> well, i say give yourself a round of applause. i know meryl streep is your mother-in-law. what did she say, mark. what did she say? >> she thought is i think she thought it was great. she sent me a little text afterwards saying like that was so much fun you brought so much life into that room. yeah. she loves ryan and greta and she was very supportive >> well, we love you cheering you on your follow congratulations. thank you so much. i know. >> i know you're working in la. thank you >> for taking the success. >> we appreciate it. thank you so much. thank you for having me >> yeah. mark ronson is very busy. that was clearly one of the highlights of the show for me, but i also like the john cena moment. did you like that?

>> i love it. i'm a big john cena fan that was hilarious. i think you see yourself of doing something like that. i take my shirt off and public intermodal days are over. those days are over. >> do you, ms those days here? i ms those days you ms de macron take my shirt off in public he's great with bruno mars also. >> yes, he is mark ronson. we thank you. thank you. thank you. because he's working in la. job well done. >> so the home >> state of alabama, charles barkley, as you know, has been in the news for the last couple of weeks and my guess is you've got a lot to say about this. we've got the perfect people to break it all down for a sorted all out. former alabama senator doug jones is here and cnn anchor and alabama native, that would be lovely. kaitlan collins. >> they will both be with us next. you're watching king charles when you think of alabama, was the first thing you think of >> immediately atomic bomb roll, tide, roll tide. >> i'm going to see you can buy sweet home, or you go that's better. okay. well, we heard

>> so that's scarlet johanson on saturday night live this past saturday, that was kenan thompson it's a scene from get-out. you remember that? we're going to talk with canaan and just a second. but first we're very excited about our next guest. both are alabama natives as former democratic senator doug jones and cnn's kaitlan collins. welcome guys. you know, when i saw senator britt's response, i said, this is a saturday night live skit waiting to happen. >> you know, it was going to be bad. >> number >> one, when summers on facts came out about things to happen, 2030 years ago? yes. >> yes. >> i'm not feel bad. i feel because i knew she was going to listen. you know? no matter what you do now, the other party is going to kill you i think that mistake, what happened bad to hurt a republican secured are also yes, but we've got this thing going with like i watched the hearings yesterday. very for tat it was it was embarrassing.

the democrat said everything great about mr. her. >> yeah. the republic said everything bad about him and it's unfortunate. and obviously, just your job. but you been in there >> what is the >> like when you in one of those hearings >> well, i haven't been in a hearing that had a special counsel that had to do like that we had some interesting hearings, but i always enjoyed them, you know, i'm going to trial lawyer, so i like to wait. i was down at the end of the dia, so i would listen to the testimony and i would go no, i won't talk and i would stop stop. i'd interrupt ben carson one time. i tried to ask about the sewer sanitation issues that we've gotten an alabama and he kept trying to tell me that they could clear all that up in the black belt with opportunity zones. i'll said wait a minute. are you telling me that you're going to get a hedge fund manager to invest in septic tanks in black belt, alabama. i always had fallen at those hearings, but the house is a lot different. you got a lot more people limit amount of time and it's all speeches let's just all speak center. i

>> always find i don't know about you kaitlan. i always find politicians very difficult to interview because there's used to sticking to their talking points. and it's very i find it very hard to get them to have a real, real authentic conversation. many cases. but when you saw senator katie britt, as i was watching it, i don't no, her i've seen her. i was certainly aware of for as i was watching her, i thought, is this really how she speaks? is this really how she is? what was your response when you are what were you think? >> i think that was kind of everyone's reaction in this sense of no one talks like that. and i know her. i mean, senator doug jones and she doesn't talk like that. that was the reaction. know that is not her normal voice. if you watch her press conferences or you've heard her interviews, and she's very smart and she's very savvy and there's a reason that she was on trump's vp shortlist. what i heard from she's still on the list. what i heard from sources right after that, they were texting me as this was happening, people in trump's world. and obviously all he cares about is optics and how things come across. and

so he didn't defend her publicly after that, but there is no mention really of harping on that shortlist anymore. maybe that's good for her in the end, maybe she doesn't want to be on that shortlist and wouldn't want to have to be in that position. but it's a thankless task. it never really goes over well democrats or republicans. but i think a lot of people didn't think that she did herself any favors. >> pick it back on girls point you have to interview democrats and republicans how frustrated that they always take this stick to talking points and we're going to say everything pro republican or pro-democratic, half for a state frustrating. is that for you? what i >> mean, watching that hearing yesterday because no one asks a question and there are great questions to ask. rob hur grandstanding it's all grandstanding. >> sometimes they won't even ask one question. so what i always try to get through the talking points, you know, you're going to get them, but it's they're not always ready for the follow-up right after that. and i think if you if you dig into those and i mean

gayle, you know this too? >> they fall apart really >> quickly when you when you push on him because i cannot stand a talking point. >> what did you think about senator britt's response? it was painful to why i made it was just painful to watch. oh, yeah. absolutely. i mean, she was senator shelby's chief of staff and i was there. we worked a lot, our staffs did and it was just painful. it was charles is just another and a long line, unfortunately, of embarrassment for alabama. and that's and we've seen that and we've seen a lot lately, the ivf ruling that you mentioned that, you know, some of the antics of senator tuberville and that that's the one thing nobody likes. and everybody had high hopes for that, that talk. it was a big deal for a freshman. senator. was just not going to we're talking about the black population. you want to talk about that in alabama. so this is i want to ask you this, doug because this is heartbreaking for me. the population, alabama's six, 5% white, 27% black, black people make up 27% of the population.

but almost half of those live below the poverty line were the seventh highest rate poverty nationwide we. rank for to fill out a child well being. we ranked 44th in adult literacy. and only 28% of our kids read proficiently it's it's heartbreaking when i see those stats. but they are factual. what what can we do? what can i do? what can you do? because you still live there? >> i got a lot of fat before you say what can you i want to know, why is it happening? why is it happening? we always hear the great state of alabama. you know, it's interesting when we were doing the man on the street now as people when you think alabama, what do you think? what was the number one answer we got out there, charles, about alabama. >> there's no chance that's kaitlan. >> they were saying goal tied >> kaitlan. somebody said p can somebody said roll tide, and they were what everybody said

role bowl. >> oh, sorry. >> go you can do i've done it before. >> isn't real time. nobody basketball. but nobody talks it's about any of this. no one talked about the poverty. nobody talked about ivf. >> well, i think people don't like to talk about it. i mean, you know this better because there such pride in alabama and i probably i get people tweeting at me saying, please, we know you're from alabama, you don't have to mention it every five minutes because i am really proud to be. >> do they say that to you? >> but i think you understand. i mean, when you live there, you know, those numbers better than anyone else because you grew up with it and you see it, you know, my mom has a public school teacher and we were having this conversation other day that sometimes it feels like they're focused on the wrong thing. like the ivf ruling that cost so much heartache for families want to have kids or there's a book-banning effort going on in my hometown would really while you have literacy issues, rules, or c or c and all these really kaitlan, those people

have no political power though that, that are the ones that don't read that can't read well that are in the below the poverty. they don't have the political power. alabama is just like every other state. it's been so gerrymandered that folks in the alabama legislature have to only react to a small percentage of their population and it's not the percentage that's in in poverty. it's not the percentage that doesn't have health care we've got 170,000 people that could benefit from medicaid expansion, you think our legislature and governor would do that? absolutely not because that's not who they answer to. in the electorate. and that's a real problem. political power. and there are good people speaking up and standing up to do it. but you just cannot break through that super majority in the alabama legislature. you can't break through that and that's why they're going to focus on huntsville and birmingham and montgomery and mobile that said, do you have kaitlan's alabama pride? my dad was one and raised in birmingham, so i spent many a lot alabama tried

>> yes. yes and no. there's so many great things about alabama, particularly are natural resources in the land and the people are really good people. it's just that we get this bad rap. we've been embarrassed for years and years. you've said this before many times, charles, about alabama going back to the george wallace days and it is one of those things that we can do better, but we've got to get the political wheel. we've gotta get people out there to vote, gotta get people thinking their vote matters, and standing up and speaking out. and that's what happened with ivf, by the way, and not to bring this all back to football. but in a way, you know, when i was watching coach saban on the hill yesterday and he was talking about the efforts with paying athletes and how what it's done to college football. i was thinking there was a lot of criticism of him from people who don't know him or maybe just don't like him because he's such a winner. and some of the criticism was about he's not interested in these, these players and their well-being because he doesn't want them to get paid. he is
