♪ ♪ [cheers and applause] >> dulce: hello, friends! welcome to "the daily show!" i'm dulce sloan. and it's my first night, and i'll be honest with y'all: i'm nervous... that i might crush this too hard! okay! [cheers and applause] and make the whole world incredibly jealous! oh! we've got a great show for you tonight. my guest tonight is the winner of season 15 of "rupaul's drag race": sasha colby is here! [cheers and applause] but we have a lot to talk about, so let's get into headlines! ♪ ♪ [cheers and applause] let's kick things off with a big sports comeback story. and i'm talking about a real comeback. none of this "we were shit 20

years straight but now we are in the playoffs bullshit. you know what? call me when you get a ring. i'm talking about the woman who came back from a russian gulag: brittney griner. [cheers and applause] the wnba star is now saying that after what happened in russia, she is never playing overseas again. and i feel you. if that shit happens to me, forget overseas. i wouldn't play basketball anywhere. not in america, not in my backyard. i wouldn't even watch basketball! i would become the first black woman to watch hockey. i mean, really. think about what she went through. she went to russia to play basketball and she ended up in jail! staying out of jail is the whole reason black people started playing basketball in the first place. i don't even know if we like it! bouncing a ball like a child, running around back and forth. oh, it's exhausting. that edges even so make a real

job. and i'm supposed to watch this? plus, the shorts are way too long now. what happened to those wilt chamberlin shorts? [cheers and applause] you know, i'm trying to see if a man is circumcised. look at the white shorts. you can see! i understand where you are coming from, brittney, and i know people are saying "how can she never travel again?" and those people are white. white people always do this. a shark will bite off their whole arm and they will be like "i'm going back in the ocean or the shark wins." bitch, the shark already won! it is swimming around slapping other sharks with your arm! but let's move onto another accomplished black woman. cleopatra! and don't tell me she wasn't black. i'm already hearing enough of

that from egypt. >> well, the folks in egypt are accusing netflix of misrepresenting history in netflix's new docuseries called "queen cleopatra." >> yeah, the country is actually criticizing the decision to cast a black woman to play the title role in series reenactments. netflix says the casting decision was intended to acknowledge the centuries long conversation about the ruler's race and the multicultural history of egypt. but officials in cairo are calling it a blatant historical fallacy, claiming that cleopatra was fair-skinned and of greek descent. >> dulce: oh, okay, egypt is concerned about "historical accuracy." i didn't hear you complaining when all them mummy movies came out. what are you talking about? [cheers and applause] we got mommies coming back from the dead, chasing brendan fraser, y'all don't have a problem, then

a black woman plays cleopatra and all of a sudden it is like -- that didn't happen, that didn't happen, no. the mummy, that was real. this, no. like, what our egyptians so afraid of? you think cleo patrick is going to turn your history into a blaxploitation film? you think she's going to be cruising down the nile saying " "this is my pyramid now, you jive turkeys!" you can have cleopatra but then we get jesus. [cheers and applause] i mean, it's only fair. we all know jesus was black, because he was found guilty in court and he did nothing wrong! and since we are talking about representation, let's talk about what mermaids really look like. and i'm not talking about ms. haley. no. there is a new controversy about

a statue that some people say is too damn sexy. i mean, look at that thing. you got mermaid mermaid thee stallion over here. this is the first statue where every time you walk up to it, it plays "body-ody-ody-ody..." now look, if you want to give me a mermaid some big ol' titties, that's fine with me. where it gets confusing is that ass. come on. we all know that fish don't have an ass. it almost feels like the sculptor figured out too late that he couldn't do legs. he messed 'em up so bad, he had to pivot to mermaid on the fly. and that's not just any ass, that mermaid is working with certified cake. you hear me? i'm talking full bakeries.

even sir mixalot is like, "you know what, this is too far." if you want to see more of this young lady, check her out on onlyfins. [applause] so that mermaid story was for the men out there but i got a little something for the ladies. >> yes, this is what it looks like. an iceberg just off the cost of harbor grace, newfoundland, with a very particular shape. >> i've perfectly never seen anything like it. from the right angle, it appears to replicate certain body parts from a male. it looks like it's, like, 50 feet tall. by far, it's the biggest i've seen. >> it definitely looks like what people are saying, almost a little bit too graphic. >> it's a very large male member. there's no mistaking that's what it looks like. i'm not sure if we can say this on the air, but i'm going to, it looks like a penis.

[laughter] >> dulce: she didn't want to say it but she did! now see, that's the real north bowl right there. if this is what it looks like when it's cold, i want to see it when it is warmed up. just the tip of the iceberg has a whole new meaning. now listen, i know what some of y'all are thinking. but if you stretch first, you'll be fine. now you see why we can't be making these mermaid statues. the earth got one look at that mermaid and look what happened! [cheers and applause] and finally, we all know social media is a big part of our lives. many of us are watching this on social media right now. thank you. follow me. but we also know that social media can be very destructive for young people.

you know, the youth. but maybe not for long. >> a bipartisan team of senators are eyeing a social media ban for kids 13 and under. it's called the protecting kids on social media act, and would set a minimum age to use apps like instagram, facebook, and tiktok. >> their bill sets age 13 as the legal minimum for social media platforms, requiring companies to conduct more rigorous verification. teens under 18 would need verified parental consent to sign up for an account. and platforms would be prohibited from using algorithms to target content to minors. >> dulce: yes! get these kids off social media! [cheers and applause] and none of this bullshit where they can get their parents permission. that just makes the cyberbullying worse. because now when jessica calls you a bitch, you know her mom and dad signed off on it. the whole family is coming after your ass.

nevermore, we are joined by one of my favorite people, fresh off hosting the white house correspondents dinner, uncle roy wood jr.! [cheers and applause] >> hello, dulce. >> dulce: thank you so much! now you agree with me, roy, we got to get these kids off of social media. >> you crazy? social media needs to be mandatory for kids. keep them distracted on their phones. i don't want these kids on the street to my talking to me, making me feel old. you walk past these kids and they start up lamenting your shoes but i don't know what the street name of those issues. "i know you got the scooby-doo green goblets." what are you talking about? did you just asked me for drugs? just say nice sneakers. get the hill away for me. i ain't one of your friends. go home. buy one of those tide pods. they will still leave the tide

pods. >> dulce: listen, i heard they are delicious. listen, roy, you have a child. do you want him on social media? >> damn straight i want him on social media. i have to think about his future. after ai and chat chatgpt, being an influence or will be the only thing. when i catch my kid doing geometry work, i say, get in front of the computer! start selling that flat tummy tea. instead of banning kids from social media, the people you really got to ban is all of them booty models. that is what you got to be in. how my supposed to be faithful when i ain't seen a woman's faith face in six months? i shouldn't be able to recognize a woman by her booty crack but i can. >> dulce: this is what i'm talking about. we are all too immature for social media, not just the kids, everyone should be banned.

do you know how productive i would be? i'd be oprah! a black woman telling white women what to read. the power! if you understand that if i get these white women to read these books -- roy, hi! we are working! what are you doing? >> did you know mermaids got ass now? oh, my god. look at this statue! look at this statue! i will support her career. i will follow her real quick. you need to follow these mermaid's. >> dulce: roy wood jr., everybody. [cheers and applause] we are going to take a break. but when we come back, i go surfing, for real! you don't want to miss it. [cheers and applause]

he was from rockaway. we had a funeral here. when the police asked beckett what he did it, he said he was bored. >> the the whole fire to come just because i was bored, just wanted something to do instead f sitting in the hallway. >> that really tripped me out and i was thinking, if this kid had an activity, that maybe this officer would be alive. so i reached out to california and told them about the tragedy. and that is how it started. just like that. >> dulce: what made you pick surfing as the thing that the little black children should be doing? >> because they don't do it here. not just black kids, white kids, asian, muslim, gay, straight, i don't care who you are. if your parent can to afford to surfing lessons, i will teach you for free. >> dulce: look at him running his own united nations of surfing. >> one, two, three, push up. this knee will come first. >> dulce: here? >> exactly. now pregnant left -- yes. i don't care how your feet look.

congratulations, sasha colby. listen, i remember when you walked in the room, i don't know if you have ever seen shock and awe before. but i am talking about face cracked, jaws dropped, i literally saw someone go -- [laughter] >> i think you can hear anetra go, "should we all go home now?" >> dulce: because you walked in the room and it was like, should we even try? >> i'm glad the delusion was hitting hard and they did try. [laughter and cheering] >> dulce: i mean -- [laughs] >> i want them good next to me, i want to beat the best. >> dulce: now as women of color, especially, we always have to worry about representation. and i know you want to be an example of a happy trans person in the media.

why is that important to you? >> well, all that the media has been concerned with a lot of the time is telling the transition story, telling the trauma, telling the effect it had on the family, but not showing why we go through all of that. and how happy being so adamant about making yourself feel comfortable in your own skin, that is the whole reason why we do the transition. it isn't too hurt or harm or traumatize our families or anyone else. it is to be our true, happy selves. we are missing that a lot. [cheers and applause] i don't want it to get misconstrued that i want to be a representation of only a happy trans person. there are so many happy, well-adjusted, loving trans people, but you only see us getting murdered. >> dulce: yes. >> so to be able to normalize the fact that you probably have come into contact with three or four trans people every day and not even know it. because we are everywhere and we are not going anywhere.

>> dulce: now you won "drag race" at a time where drag is being politicized for absolutely no reason. whew. what do you think they are really trying to do? >> it's always about these white men trying to control people's bodies. they were doing -- controlling and i always notice that these guys, they are not really killing a lot of trans men. there is a lot of trans women being murdered. that is because these men objectify trans women as much as they objectify cis women. >> dulce: yes. >> so once they objectify you, and you are living your truth, they get so mad because they are, one, jealous they are not living their truth. >> dulce: yes.

committing crime. >> i mean, technically, stepping in foot down there, i'm breaking the law for some reason. it's insane. i've heard i've heard from my queen friends like aura, you can get in drag at the venue, but to be out walking from your car to the venue, if you are in drag you are breaking the law. someone like me, that's what it is made for. i can't get out in drag. i'm a trans woman. >> dulce: because you are a woman. >> i am going to be breaking the law because that's what they want. >> dulce: oh -- >> it's a way to get trans people controlled. >> dulce: they are trying to say you are in drag when you are wearing a woman's -- speak of the legislation, i believe the wording is, if you are in an article of clothing that is not your assigned birth article of clothing, that is how they can round about say that drag is illegal and then the real thing is, being trans is illegal. >> dulce: what i do have is one final question for you, mother. if i was in the family, what
