1:40 am
and it's far more intense than any video game. out here, it's not where the sea takes you. but who it makes you. uh-huh. nobody drinks, 'till this guy sweats. degree advanced protection works up to 125 degrees. but be careful, it won't let you down. but bhank:eful, maybe the problem is you've got too much mother in you. if you're not nurturing 20, 30 kids at once you start to lose your edge and how's that good for the boy? well, maybe i could try teaching again. sure. and in the meantime we can keep bobby on the medicine. i'll tell you today, i really noticed his behavior improve.
1:41 am
uh, i didn't take my medicine today. what? why not, honey? 'cause luanne needed it... badly. and anyway, i can't take the rush anymore. it's too fast and, like, freezy. you know, it's, like... ( cringes ) welcome home. i cooked you brunch and i tuned your car. i fixed your mower and i ate the brunch. hmm. maybe we should read a little more about that medicine, hank. yeah. couldn't hurt. captioned by media access group at wgbh access.wgbh.org comedy central's world news headquarters in new york this is "the daily show" with trevor noah.
1:42 am
welcome to the daily show, everybody, thank you so much for tuning in, i'm trevor noah. our guests tonight, march for our livers activists matt deitsch and emma gonzalez are joining us, everybody. (applause) we'll be talking to them about their road for change tour but first let's catch up on today's headlines. >> i'm not a big fan of most of president trump's policies. but there is one idea that gets me really excited. space wars. and today vice president mike pence came out to join in on the fun. >> now the time has come to write the next great chapter in the history of our armed forces. to prepare for the next battle field, where america's best and bravest will be called to deter and defeat a new generation of
1:43 am
threats to our people, to our nation. the time has come to establish the united states space force. lev laugh. >> trevor: god 2k578 this dude is boring. when trump talks about space force he makes it sound like we are going to be on a rocket riding to the moon like space force! ♪ killing aliens. ♪ mike pence makes it sound like actual space, he is just like-- this is captain mike pence, nothing to report. yeah, trump is like we're going to go up there and we're going to have sex with those aliens! and pence is like there will be no sex with aliens.
1:44 am
not until after marriage. anyway moving on to another frontier. the gender pay gap. it's a problem all over the world and it turns out the problem starts earlier than you think. >> "the new york times" reports on a study that shows daughters do more chores than sons. >> and that could contribute to gender inequality in pay. girls do about 45 minutes of housework a day, boys do about half an hour. girls are more likely to be paid for cleaning. boys are more likely to be paid for personal hygiene like brushing their teeth and taking a shower. >> trevor: now, now, now, now, now look, now look, look, wait, wait, wait. don't boo, voted. i know, i know this doesn't sound fair. but if you have ever smelled a 15 year old boy, you know that the showering money is totally worth it, okay. not that i smell 15 year old boys, i have just heard things. i have heard things. (applause)
1:45 am
but this story just makes me sad, right. because this means steve bannon never got an allowance. (laughter) an finally, finally, we have seen a lot of white women go viral this year. but now one of them has gone viral for something good. >> one woman from rhode island is a huge fan of missy elliott. she even posted a video covering the rapper's song work it. this video is so popular, missy elliott retweeted it herself. >> this is my second time exclusive here. will me work it i put my thing sleep it and reverse it. ♪ t hey! if ta well doesn't vay record del by the ends of the week, these people are no focused. my only question is, my only question is what event was that?
1:46 am
like was it a kid's birthday party and she is just doing raunchy ass rap songs? happy 9th birthday, deal 6789 my neck, my back, my-- all right, let's move on to our top story. it is august, people, when stores start putting up halloween decorations and ben carson starts prepping for hibernation. the key is to always be ready. more importantly, august is national breastfeeding awareness month. for women who can do it, breastfeeding is one of the best ways to nurture an infant and it is shocking that in 2018 we're still seeing stories like this. >> a mother breastfeeding her baby inside an alabama restaurant says the manager told her to cover up. and outraged mother said she was breastfeeding her baby when a via bus driver told her to cover up. >> sarah olsen said this is how she was sitting an breses
1:47 am
feeding while having dinner at a subway restaurant inside this wal-mart supercenter, that is when she said a manager at subway asked her to cover up or breastfeed at the back of the store. >> he stated that well, if it is my legal right than he can just whip out his penis. and pee everywhere. >> trevor: okay. i'm confused by it guy's reason. how is breastfeeding the female equivalent of peeing. because peeing is the female equivalent of peeing. that guy knows that women also pee, right? to me it just sounds like that dude just wants an excuse to take his dick out, that is what it sounds like, he uses it for everything, that car turned right on red fcialtion he can do that i'm going to whip my penis out, i'm going to-- i can't do that? okay, but next time. next time, it's on. (applause) and also can we address that there is a subway restaurant inside a wal-mart?
1:48 am
like if you ask me, that is the unnatural way to feed someone. that needs to be covered up. and now breastfeeding, remember this, breastfeeding in public is legally protected in all 50 states. but clearly, yeah, as it should be. but clearly not everyone knows the law because some people are even calling the po-po on the ta-ta. >> major controversy in central minnesota when the police are called on two moms breastfeeding at a public pool. >> stephanie and mary say they were breastfeeding their babies in the kiddie pool when complaints turned into a sour scuffle. >> patron at the pool came up to me and told me that i needed to cover because her sons were swimming. >> the city is saying a teen staffer at the public pool then politely asked the moms to be more discreet or relocate to another area. when they did not, it created an untenable situation. >> the employee eventually calling 911. >> apparently there is a mother breastfeeding in the shallow end
1:49 am
and not being very discreet about it. >> i like how, i i like how the person is complaining that she is doing it in the shallow end, like that is important. oh no, not in the shallow end. that say sacred place of the pal, you can see the bottom there. look, obviously i feel bad for those moms but i also feel bad for the lifeguard who had to deal with this. like he is a teenage boy. telling a woman to put her breast away goes against everything he stands for. his brain probably melted down. he was like a robot that couldn't handle a logic problem like ma'am, could you please put away your-- could you-- what am i say smg who am i. obviously, look, america needs to be educated on this issue. and thankfully "the daily show's" desi lydic and dulce sloan have stepped up to the challenge with this helpful public service announcement. >> hello america, it's me, desi lydic, mother of one and breastfeeder of three. >> and i'm dulce sloan and have
1:50 am
i. >> it has come to my attention that the natural and beautiful act of breastfeeding is making some of you unfortunatable to the point of snitching. since are you so desperate to cover up mothers and their cute little babies, let's cover up the things that make everyone else uncomfortable. you want women to cover up their baby eating lunch. guess what, i want to cover up this dude housing buffalo wings. wings stop. >> this couple sitting on the same side of the booth, we get t are you happy. the public pool, too sacred a place for the nourishment of imabbees so it is fitting we cover up old dudes in banana ham okays, and creeps who offer sunscreen rubdowns. >> we know there is no spf69. >> and receipts' not forget public transportation. if the worst thing you have seen on a sub way is a woman breses feeding, congratulations. that means you have never been on a car with a woman clipping her toe nails.
1:51 am
>> hey, hey, put that in the back. >> couples making out on the train. >> i said we get it. >> see, there are a lot of disgusting things out there. so i am sorry if you are grossed out by breastfeeding but how but make like a hungry baby and suck it up. (applause). >> trevor: thank you, ladies, >> trevor: thank you, ladies, we'll be right back. hey kiddo. see any stars out there? >> trevor: thank you, ladies, we'll be right back. not really. ♪ grab your jacket. ♪ and try oreo chocolate candy bars.

fz welcome back to the daily show. this week, this week marks a milestone in civil rights history. the 50th anniversary of franklin's first appearance in the comic strip "peanuts." now it seems like a joke but the reason this was a landmark is that before franklin appeared, newspaper comic strips were segregated, right. black comic strips were always separate from white comic strips. in fact, if you even tried to put the pages of the newspaper together the police what just break down your door, you would
1:56 am
look like, and they would be like well well well, we have a trouble maker over here. so the character of franklins with a pretty big deal. and what is really fascinating is his origin story. >> april 1968, martin luther king had been shot and killed. american cities burned in rage. in california a 42 year old teacher and plotter of three felt helpless. >> and i remember sitting in suburbia saying is there anything i can do? >> harriet glikman wanted to reach someone with influence. she wrote to dharls shuldz, his peanuts comic strip was read by nearly a hundred million people each week. charlie brown, lucy, linus, they were all white. glikman told shulz he should integrate. >> trevor: okay thark was pretty dope of that lady. (applause). >> trevor: yeah, but at the same time, also kind of a weird reaction to a tragedy. i mean martin luther king is
1:57 am
dead, there is cay yos in the street its and her first reaction is maybe charlie brown can help. i wonder if there is some nice suburban lady today going did you know they are putting killeds in cages. we got to get garfield on the kaition. where is he? and the creator of peanuts charles shulz made sure that franklin's arrival was a statement. his first appearance in the comic strip was at a beach swimming with white kids. and that may seem trivial now but don't forget for many people in 1968 blacks and whites swimming together was not a normal thing and this image was seen by a hundred million people. because me nutteds in the 60s had the same cultural dominance as friends in the 90s which unlike peanuts never managed it add a full-time black friend. for more on the civil rights trail blazer we turn to roy wood, jr., everybody. (applause) roy, no matter who you are, you
1:58 am
got to love franklin, right? >> oh man, love him, are you kidding, man, franklin was a straight up g, integrated the shit out of peanuts. >> trevor: it must have been a pretty big moment for you as a kid when i first appeared in the strip. >> first appeared? that was in 1968. how old do you think i am? >> trevor: 50-- 40? 60134. >> i'm 39, trevor. 39. hear a the thing. newspaper franklin was great. newspaper franklin was great, you can't argue that but when they put him on tv, it was a different story. all of a sudden they made him a stereotype. >> we did the hokee pokee and turned himself around, that's what st all about. >> ♪ we're not going to lose.
1:59 am
(laughter) why couldn't franklin just do the hokey pokey, trevor? you telling me black kids can't put their left foot in and take they left foot out it looked like franklin was auditioning for house party 2. >> trevor: but roy, it is still cool to have him in there even if he had one dance break. >> it was every time with this kid. any time you walked down the street in me nutszville you might run into franklin and his home boy pop lockin and even when he is hanging outed with his friend, everyone else gets a normal handshake but not franklin, he got to slap skin, see what i mean. all the other peanuts are just kids but franklin is rung around peanutville like a damn baby shaft. he's a tiny bad mother-- . >> trevor: shut your mouth. >> talking about franklin. look, i just don't want him to be the other kid all the time.
2:00 am
even at thangsz giving, yeah, they invited him but look where they put him. is he by my sem, even the dog gets to sit with the kids, why std dog even at the damn table. it's cool though, franklin, franklin, look, man, they did you a favor, you don't want none of that bland ass white people turkey anyway. they don't put those sprinkles on it. you they they don't season the food. y'all have thanks giving in african. >> trevor: i hear what you are saying but i liked having franklin on the screen. i think it's important for kids to be able to see a version of themselves. >> okay, cool, so if that is the case the cartoon should honor the original revolutionary spirit of franklin. if you are going to make him rap, do it right. this is america. ♪ ♪ this is america. ♪ is. >> trevor: ri wood, jr., earn,
2:01 am
we'll be right back. we'll be right back. cheergs plaws do we really have to choose him we'll be right back. cheergs plaws to be our next spokesperson? he's so boring. hm. sounds like you're on the fence. why don't i just leave you my resume? yes, it's laminated. no thanks. you're hired! try caramel m&m's. ow. so what do you guys want? pistachio. chocolate chip. rocky road. i see what's going on here. everybody's got different taste. well, now verizon lets you mix and match your family unlimited plans so everybody gets the plan they want, without paying for things they don't. jet-setting moms can video-chat from europe. movie-obsessed teens can stream obscure cinema. it's like everyone gets their own flavor of unlimited.

2:02 am
honestly... honestly... honestly... we should've used a condom but we got distracted. i know i should get tested for hiv but honestly i'm afraid to find out. honestly, we've been together for a while so getting tested never really crossed my mind. honestly, no one wants to think about hiv. but there are things that everyone can do to help protect their sexual health. condoms are a great start. get tested. and ask a healthcare provider about all of your prevention options. because honestly... our health is worth protecting.

2:05 am
welcome to the show. >> hello. >> trevor: so good to have you here, is that the first thing will you do is go to my water, just check. >> no, it's the mug. >> trevor: what if it was a fake mug and you would expose the fact i don't have any real things in my cup. welcome to the show. thank so much for being here. what is fascinating in wamping your journey, many people get ang disng-- angry when bad people happen in their world, not just in america, everywhere. some people do something but you continue to work at it to make change. what do you think keeps driving you? >> i definitely know that in the very beginning of all this we met way bunch of kids from chicago who, the peace warriors mainly who we are still friends with today. and they 208d us about the six principles of nonviolence, martin luther king and principle number five is, no, principle number four is accept suffering
2:06 am
without retaliation for the sake of the cause to achieve the goal. which means basically doesn't matter what you face as an individual, the goal is much more important than anybody. which is kiepped of the main principle that we went to see the sit encounters in north carolina and that was the methods that were used then. doesn't matter if somebody hits me, doesn't matter if somebody pours something over my head to try to get me off this seemplet i need to sit here because this is for everybody. >> the main thing you are trying to do is get young people to register to vote. >> and actually show up within and actually show up. that is an important part yvment is that 9 kie if he key to what are you doing. no, we want to you show up, why is there a difference. >> because people say my vote doesn't count. some say register to vote. you can say sure, but nobody will go up to you the day of the poles and say get out there and vote. we are going to try to do offers of ride sharing and stuff like that. we encourage people to say you know, try to carpool everybody that you know and try to get everybody at the polls at the same time. offer transportation to those
2:07 am
without don't have it. if a million people say my vote doesn't count, that say million votes that could have either swung a district or made an impact. in the ohio special election, it was under 2,000 votes that was the difference between the two people. >> right. >> like your vote really, really does count. what if it had been one vote, that person's one vote would have made the difference. >> we saw a story where in one election it had to be decided by basically a coin flip t shows elections are getting closer and closer 678 people's votes are counting more than they ever thought before. young people in particular haven't been good at turning up when it comes to the mid terms. in this election it feels different. we're seeing research that says more and more people are registering, more and more people who are young are inclined to vote. do you feel like gun violence and mass shootings are a big driving factor in this? >> well, young people are more educated now than they have ever been before. and young people turn out at a rate of about one in five. if young people turn out in a rate of two out of five they can
2:08 am
swing any election they turn out in. that is what st really about. about slowing that young people, if you can convince one person in your prox imity to vote that wasn't planning on voting, you can swing this election. >> trevor: right. >> and actually attain morally just leaders because right now congress is not elected once in these, the american people. (applause). >> trevor: let's talk about the shirt that you are wearing. clearly you didn't talk about it before you left the house, you are wearing the same thing. you are not just talking, are you doing. are you not just doing, you are helping others do. getting people out to vote always seems tedious, your shirts have a purpose, tell me about them. >> the qr code if you scan it with your camera don't even need an app t will get you registered to vote in under two minutes. >> trevor: can we zoom in on that rate now so if you are watching this at home, there you if you are watching this at home right now and you zoom in, you can take a picture of this right now on your phone and you can join this movement. you can register to vote, you
2:09 am
can get out there, you can have your voice heard. >> you don't even have to agree with us in policy, just get registered to vote and vote. >> how do you go back to your tormal living. you know you have the right to be kids as well, right. like what do you go back to after this. >> there is no normality in this country right now. and so having to understand that, you need to continue building these coalitions with people and continue educating people what is going on day to day because not a day has passed where we haven't heard a new name and new story. we haven't seen a day go by where a new news story is someone else shot and killed. another young person shot and killed in this country, this doesn't happen anywhere else except america. >> trevor: all right. >> and st up to us as americans to actually stawn and fight for each other. and so there is no normality until we can continue to come together and actually change this. so i know you want us to be kids, but we have more porn things to do.
