♪ put it down i'm not gonna do it, you guys! it worked! i'm not gonna do it! everybody, i'm trevor noah and this is the daily social distancing show. today is february tat-- 259 which means it is the last week of black history month. and that's why my friends i have decided for the final time that i am going to make new black history by becoming the first ever black karen. >> hey, do you have a license for that skateboard? >> hey, [bleep] where is your mask, lady. >> i don't have to wear a mask, i pay taxes. >> what is an amazing day for our people. >> i think i did pretty well.

anyway, on tonight's show, why your tattoo could km back to haunt you. an explosive story about cats. and why the state of america's electric grid will shock you. 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 there is the daily social distancing show with trevor noah. >> folks, it's been another long, long, long week. the pandemic reached a grim milestonek people in texas struggled to get clean water and now someone stole lady gaga's dogs. which is crazy. you know how hard it is to lure dogs away from someone who dresses in meat? so instead of ending the week on a frown let's turn that thing upside down with another installment of ray of sunshine. >> one of the worst stories

recently has been the crisis in texas. but even that had a ray of sunshine as a bad situation brought out the best in some people. >> in houston two strangers took in a delivery driver for five days after she got stranded during the storm. >> wow, last week chelsea timmons says she got stuck outside their home while delivering groceries just as the brunt of that storm moved through. the couple tried to get her a tow truck but no one showed up. so they opened up their home to her. >> just come inside, hang out, we'll figure it out. and you know, at some point we realized that we were probably going to have a houseguest for a few days which was fine, chelsea made an amazing coconut cake the other day too. >> oh, that is the sweetest most heartwarming abduction i have ever seen. this is like if the movie "get out" was made by the hallmark channel. you know these days when everyone is so suspicious and distrustful of strangers, it is

really wonderful to hear about a couple that didn't hesitate for a second to help a stranger in need. in fact, you know what, i am going to write them an email, dear american friends. mi an nigerian prince who has lots of money. i can you help me-- the only person who this isn't a happy story for is the guy who ordered could could nuts that never showed up. i mean he was shivering in his house like don't worry, kids, we're going to make it through this, just fine, just as soon as those coconuts get here. let's move on to a ray of sunshine from ohio. a story that starts out scary but ends scarily adorable. >> an ohio bomb squad made a surprise discovery replying to a call about a suspicious bag left outside a church. they weren't met with ticking but purring from the bag. six newborn kittens and a mother. >> and a note that said sprinkles had gone into labor a

day earlier, they are being cared for at the local animal shelter there. >> trevor: wow, what a relief that mist have been. a bunch of kittens is the best thing you can hope to see when are you expecting to see a bomb. i mean it is like going to your grandpa's funeral but instead beyonce pops out of the casket for a surprise concert. i neen is too bad you didn't get to bury your grandpa but hey, beyonce. so. ♪ so it is really is great news that this wasn't a bomb. although after one week with seven cats in your house, you will wish it had just been a bomb. and look, i know we should be careful. but does this really have to go straight to the bomb squad? i mean like i feel like if there were a couple more questions on the 911 call could have helped. >> okay, sir, is the bag meouting? it is, then those are kittens, sir, that is not a bomb, okay, bye bye. 911, what is your emergency? uh-huh. now is the fire meowing.

>> yeah, those are kittens, mam, that is not a fire, okay then, bye bye. 191, what is your emergency, at the same time though i will admit it is still too early to let our guard down. bombers are really deliver people so this could all be a long game, you know, you bring home those sweet kittens, you take care of them, snuggle them, you listen to them pur. they become part of the family and one night ten years from now you open your eyes and your cat son your chest holding a trigger button like boom, bitch. meow. all right, let's move on from six tiny kittens to one giant sheep and another great animal story from the week. >> res viewers-- rescuers in australia found a sheep with 78 pounds of wool dragging him down. look at this guy, he was underweight with all that fleece, it even covered his eyes. the rescuers took him to a mission farm sanctuary where he promptly received a good sheering. sheep tip clea have to be sheered. >> i year to keep healthy. look at all of that.

talk about the socks and sweaters. >> trevor: oh man, mi so happy for that sheep. he must have been relieved too. i bet he was like thank you, my dick looks so much bigger now, that sin credible. they shaved 78 pounds of wool off of one sheep. that is enough to make one mitten for bernie sanderses. and finally, here is a young woman whose good attitude turned her embarrassing mishap into internet clowt. >> a trend going around tiktok is asking people to share their most regrettable tattoo. >> itk las like one poor woman from kentucky takes the cake. >> okay, i'm just going to let you know that i won. so i got this tattoo, i wanted it for a couple of years, basically means being true to yourself an real and not pretending to be something you are not. i got this march 4th, 2020, and it says courageously and radically refuse to wear a mask. >> she says she is not an antimasker and was so

embarrassed she wore long sleeve clothes all summer to hide it. >> all right, you have to feal bad for this woman. just trying to make a personal statement and ending up on the wrong side in the culture wars. i mean the only way out of this thing is just to go full post malone and get tattoos everywhere, stack them up because good luck picking out an individual message on that guy, cohave his atm pin on there, we wouldn't know, noab would know, this is the problem with getting a tattoo to express a personal statement. like if you are going to get a tattoo, there is a simple rule to follow. just make sure you get a tattoo of something that never changes. you know like mr. potatoe head. no matter what happens, mr. potatoe head will always be mr. poat-- they did what now? but you know what, kudos because she is laughing about it, she is having a good time and even better news, she just got a prim time show on fox news. >> for more on this story, i want to bring in my friend desi lydic. desi, i know you love these kinds of stories as much as i

do. it is such bad luck, right? >> yeah, i guess. >> trevor: because i mean, like what are the chances of getting a tattoo where like things change and then all of a sudden the tattoo becomes really controversial. >> let it g trevor. it could happen to anybody. >> trevor: oh. damn, desi, i feel like i hit a nerve. >> yeah, yeah, you know what, you did hit a nerve, trevor. this lady isn't the only one dealing with it. i also got an inoperational-- inoperational-- insperational tattoo that became embarrassing this year. >> trevor: what? stop the steal. wait, you think trump had the election stolen from him? >> no! no, i got this in 2010 after a breakup. it was to remind myself to stop letting bad relationships steal

my precious time. now every time i wear short sleeves outside i get a visit from the fbi. >> trevor: i mean i'm really sorry desi but i guess you could just wear long sleeves. >> yeah. doesn't help with the other one. >> trevor: wait, you got another bad tattoo. >> okay, but don't, don't judge me, all right? please. promise? >> trevor: yeah. >> this someone small and tasteful on my knuckles. >> trevor: i heart q, woe, desi, you believe in q-anon? >> no! trevor, i believe in the q train, okay. excuse me for supporting public transportation. i mean how was i supposed to know that it would become the worst letter in the alphabet. >> trevor: oh man. wow. wow, all right, well i didn't realize how common this was, maybe for the future just like maybe you shouldn't get tattoos,

it is probably safer. >> i won't, i'm done. except i did just recently get a really special tattoo that you can't misinterpret. it is in sans crit on my neck. isn't it beautiful. >> trevor: okay, my sans crit is rusty but-- oh, desi, oh no, desi that says jeffrey epstein didn't kill himself. >> yeah, i know. >> trevor: wait, so you think-- you know what, let's not get into that. let's-- well, good luck with the tattoos and life, and stuff, this is weirder than i thought it was going to be. >> i was thinking about getting a lizard person right on my calf. >> trevor: we-- i lost you, my wife, my wife-- all right, when we come back, we'll figure out why all of america could end up like texas. and kevin garnett is my guest on the show.

daily social distancing show, over the past week we all watched the chaos unfold when texas' electric grid threw the entire state into chaos. it was basically the biggest blackout since brett kavanaugh celebrated getting on the supreme court but texas is far from the only state to experience massive power outages. the dwe is, why does america's energy grid have so many problems. well let's find out why in

another installment of if you don't know, now you know. we all know how the electric system works, right? plug your phone in, you unplug it, you plug it back in because it is only at 11 meres and then you just stand by the wall all day scrolling through instagram. but was' going on behind that wall might surprise you. >> in 1882 on pearl street in new york city thomas edison opened the world's first commercial electric grid. lighting up local homes and businesses. with cables connected to his power station. >> the modern electric grid next to 7,300 power plant for 167,000 miles through high voltage transmission mile and millions of miles to bring power to over 150 million customers. >> there are only four distinct electrical grids that service essentially all of north america. you have the two big ones,

western and eastern, and the two electrical separatist-- separatestist, quebec and texas. >> the electrical grid is the most massive machine humans ever built. >> in the united states we use something like five or six times more energy per person thafn anywhere else in the world. >> trevor: of course americans consume that much energy. americans invented a bike that you have to plug in, doesn't go anywhere and costs more than ten regular bicycles but yes, the electrical grid is the most massive machine that man has ever built. and it is amazing how it connects the entire continent. just think, while you are blending a smoothie in your kitchen, donald trump is using the same electricity to shred his tax returns. actually beautiful when you think about it. so there is no doubt that this is an impressive system, unfortunately much like a tweet from 2010 it hasn't aged well. >> it loses power almost three times more often than it did in

1984, much more than any other industrialized nation. japan loses power an average of four minutes a year but in the northeast u.s., 214 minutes and it just keeps getting worse. >> in 2010 alone disruptions in our inefficient power grid cost our country in excess of a hundred billion dollars. >> we actually lose about 60% of the energy that we generate. >> most of the infrastructure that we use today hasn't changed much since 30, 40, 50 years ago. >> some of the country's power systems predate the 20th century. >> this thomas edison walk in addition a modern substation he would feel very much at home. >> trevor: yes, he would feel at home especially if he saw joe biden on tv. >> hey, my old pal joe is president. joe! why are you so-- get out of that box, joe. >> trevor: but this is pretty woreisome. america's living in 2021 with an electric grid that has barely been upgraded in the past 50 years. you have to update technology

more often than that, people. imagine trying to get through your night with the first iphone. you couldn't even use the map ap because new york wasn't a state back then. so clearly the grid needs to be upgraded and we better do it soon because the problem is heating up. >> the last half century there had been more and more power outages because of weather. and it will only get worse because of our changing climate. >> the grids are facing more extreme conditions more often and are susceptible to really, really major fall failures. >> it is no match for wildfires, if match for hurricanes. >> as weather patterns and temperature pattern get extreme, the extremely hot and cold days end up driving the most significant peaks that utilities have to manage. air conditioners can account for up to half of the electricity being used in the country. the first thing that happens when you have a hot day is people use their air conditioners. >> the increase in the abundance of air conditioning throughout the country, certainly manies that more people can turn on air

conditioning all at the same time. >> trevor: that's right, america is using way more air conditioning than its grid can handle am i know that for a fact. ofs in this country are so cold you could store coronavirus vaccines in your desk. thanks to the extreme temperatures climate change can create this problem will get worse. maybe you're not worried. maybe you are thinking oh, eventually climate change will get so bad that i will be stuck between a filed wielt fire and blizzard creating a perfect temperature but on the off chance that that doesn't happen, america needs to find alternative methods of climb at control. like i know i do that, you know, when i'm cold, i just turn on bridgerton, those accents, regen jean-page's smolder, i'm hot already. okay, but it's not just nature that is putting the electric grid at risk. st also technology. >> of all the critical components of the u.s. infrastructure the power grid is

one of the most vulnerable to cyberattack. >> imagine if the critical infrastructure we rely on every day simply shut down. power plants, banking systems, air traffic control, subways, all are vulnerable. >> russian government hackers are actively trying to penetrate the grid to carry out potential attacks. >> they are already in the grid, the russians are in, the chinese are in. the iranians may be on the erj of getting in. >> ironically it's our less sophisticated electric providers who may have an edge here. >> rural coops account for 42 million people, none of these coops relies on the internet for the distribution of power. >> that's right, people. sometimes the-- more you one counsel on t when everyone is messing around with their spotify play list on their iphone 12 i'm jamming out to cd's on my old reliable disqman. >> it's been-- it's been-- but

those rules provided, america is in real trouble here. if america's electricity is hacked, that could leave hospitals lose power, the banking system collapses, boeing planes fall out of the sky. even more than they already do. and there are so many countries already in america's grid, they are probably just arguing over who will actually get to cause a blackout, what are you doing, get out of here, we were here first, get out of here, you already did an election, give us something, huh? >> you know what they need to do. they need to update the again ef' convention for the new car fare. >> they have be to like okay, look, we can bomb each other as much as we want but can we agree no cutting power when there is a new wandavision, that is a war crime. so this is a scary future that the world is facing. but the good news is the united states now has space force. i mean they won't be able to protect pot we are grid but if it does go down, someone in space can look down on earth and

be like yep, it looks like the lights are out down there, everything is off. >> and that, my friends, is. >> now luckily hackers haven't done any major damage to america's power grid yet. but wait until you hear what has. >> one of the biggest threats to the u.s. power grid isn't natural disaster it is that little animal invading your birdfeeder t is difficult to know the severity of our squirrel sabotage problem because it happens to frequently. utility groups say they are the most common cause of grid trouble causing one of every five outages, one ill-fated squirrel can knock out power for thousands of customers or trip up whole financial markets, squirrels have short circuited nasdaq not once but twice from the same city in connecticut. >> well, well, well, turns out squirrels have been sabotaging us. and we shouldn't be surprised. i mean have you ever seen a

squirrel? they always look like they're plotting some shit. and i questions it turns out if squirrels were the real threat all along, some of us need to start apologizing to our dogs. because it turns out they were good boys. very good boy. so yes, when you look at the state of america's electric grid, it is is not a pretty picture. it is underthreat from climate change, from hackers and even junker the up rat, honestly just thinking about how the entire country could be shut down in an instant is starting to stress me out. in fact i'm getting so stressed i think i will take a moment to listen some of my relaxing tunes. yes, yeah. all right, when we are come back, nba legend kevin garnett joins me on the show. so don't go away.

career. life before and after bas kelt ball, and where to from here. kevin garnett, welcome to the daily social distancing show. >> thank you, man. thank you, trevor, thank you for having me. >> trevor: yeah, man, it is dope to have you here, first things first, why is it so dark, what is going on over there? >> you know what, we're not in the studio. i like indirect lighting myself. i don't like direct lighting. i don't like the light hitting me. i was trying to tell the producers have a high level mel a anyone so you have to deal with the level of dark, i'm brnging some balance to the whole trevor know today. >> trevor: all right, i feel it we got an ebb and flow going here, okay, i like that, welcome to the show, either way, i can see you, i can feel your presence and before we get into the book let me say first of all congratulations on making it into the nba hall of fame and man, did you it in style as well. because you are a first ballot hall of famer, that is pretty

amazing, how does it feel? >> it feels amazing, man. you know, as you would know, putting all your time and effort into a craft and believing in yourself and wanting to, you know, grow a passion that is within you, is not ideal in a black home. thinking big, dreaming big, all those things going through having a vast imagination and chasing a dream, only to find yourself in your dream and now are you in it. now what do you do? so to be able to be able to reach heights, reach dreams, i couldn't, i couldn't have wrote this, you know, couldn't have came up with this in my wildest imagination. >> your induction into the hall of fame comes with a bittersweet story to it. you know you were inducted along your peer and your friend kobe bryant. now he was a fellow giant in the sport and one thing i really always wondered about is how you could be friends with somebody

when you guys wanted to kill each other on the court. because you would watch the game, you know, when it was celtic, lakers, ga, i want to kill. and it is like you are friends off the court. did that ever spill over. were you ever too friendly on the court or too aggressive in life. >> no, i think kobe and i had a great balance of respect for each other. when you hit the floor as gladiators, you have a respect but within the lines but it is free game, you know, it is all about advantage. and you are trying to look for that advantage every minute, every second of the game. and when you come off the court it is a lot less intense, a lot more intimate, the conversations are obviously long running and in depth, but when you are between the lines, there are no rules, only respect, and if you don't have respect, then it goes another way, but i think kobe and i had a great understanding of each other. i met him when he was very young. we started off, you know, when we were very young, in the

relationship and we kept that throughout our whole time in the league. so it is only right that we go in the hall together. >> trevor: yeah, man, it has been an amazing journey teat you have been on, i feel like you are one of those people where every time i learn more about you, i like you more. you know, obviously i loved you as a basketball player because i was like kg is killing the game, you know, an uncut gems, this is a new set of kg i never thought i would see. but now we get to live your life with you because you released a memoir coming out this week, kg, a to z, an uncensored encyclopedia of life, basketball and everything in between. and you've literal written it like an inpsych pedestriania, a, b, c, d, all the way to z. >> that's right. >> trevor: talk me to to about why kg decided to write a book like that. >> i am not a memoir guy, more math mat eck, more science, my world geography. when i read a bunch of papers i

skim through, i'm not always seeing the da, i'm skimmer, i wanted the book to be able to be followed very easily. sometimes when i read stuff i get lost in how the fore mat, the paragraphs are really in depth, so i wanted to be able to write something that was easy to follow, and you know, something that you can enjoy. >> it is enjoyable. man because you have lived a life, everything in your book gives us insides into something, people love kg on the court, there is talk about kg on the court, like just when you learn things about you as a person, you for instance have you are very serious player. but you love messing with people, you know, one of my favorite things you did, and i only learned about basketball maybe like seven years ago, i would always see you hitting the ball away when people would shoot after the time out has been called and i was always like did they get the point. and i was like no, kg just does it, like why are you didding

that, i don't know, now we know, you were trying to mess with people that were trying to get their rhythm going. >> it is a combination of things, trevor. like confidence, on this level, when you play with guys in the league, only thing they need to see is the ball go through a couple of times or even one time, reggie miller, michael jordan, charles barkley, guys, will bron, guys who can-- will brn, guys who can beat you with a blink of an eye, have what switch. i used to be mindful of that switch. when guys would try to be shooting, or have themselves a bad shooting nightk i would just, part of it being an a-hole too you know, kind of poking the-- a little bit but a lot of it is rhythm and really make someone, really, you know what, stop doing that, and the more i can mess with you, the more i would probably do it, but yeah, it was effective. >> yeah man, you might call yourself a bit of an a-hole at times but there are parts of this book that show us how complicated and dynamic you are

as a person. i really appreciated how you talked about struggling with attention-deficit disorder, how you strug elevator-- struggled livering with dyslexia and learning how to learn without that, or with that impediment in your life t seems like something a lot of people wouldn't share, especially self-doubt, when people think of kevin garnett we don't ever think of self-doubt being in a sentence about your name, why do you think it was so important to share that and say hey, these are the things kg has struggled with off the court. >> i wanted to give people confidence. i wanted to be able to say it is okay to have helmets, we are all human, everyone is not per fet, we all have flaws. growing up i didn't necessarily know what was going on. i didn't know why, you know, things appeared the way they were and why i was procession the way i was. so in this whole book, i want the readers to be able to grab solutions from what, from some of the things i was talking about. it is the same doubt that drives you, same doubt that pushes you

every day. and you know, the message in that, in having the adds or these deficits is to continue to push through, i never let any of this hold me back, i figured it out. it was an odd way of figuring some of this out but it worked at the end of the day. and the message is to continue to push through no matter, whatever it is, it is a solution to everything, i really like to believe that. so i wanted to share that with everybody, to show the human side of me too. >> right, right. >> there is great athlete and running and jumping and nobody understands that, you know, it is a whole bunch of other things that go into the make up of a person. i want to show the more human side. >> the book takes us into all the things that go into the makeup of this human in particular. one of the scariest stories to read in the book, because it just shows how much a person's life could change in an instant is when you talk about being in high school and getting into a fight, defending your friend who

is getting beaten up by these white kids, the next thing you know, you were being put up for lunching charge which is a capital offense were you were in south carolina. this is a scary world for you to be in, when you think to yourself that one thing could is changed your life and there might be no kevin garnett in the hall of fame right now. >> facts. and you know, this is where, the same bad association of sports has come into play, i was a young kid at the time. and i'm a very loyal person, people know me for that. and you know, you get yourself in situations and you don't really think when you are young, you just more react. and going through that situation, it taught me to actually think before i responding or actually reacting to things. i was very fortunate to be able to go through that process and come out of it, and find a rainbow at the end, if you will. i took a negative, you know, i took myself is and i was
