you listening to carmody central
december two thousand ninety from probably said rose world news headquarters in new york this is the daily with revenue years seven off our guest tonight is a legendary actor who plays roger ales in a new movie about fox news john lift always here everybody also until night show you bookie young white checks in on america's pounders the hot new apple products is an actual apple and congress goes from law school
its catch up on today's headlines let's kick it off with tik tok adhd inept four kids these days you for everything from making jokes to sharing stories and now even political activism but now a new viral tik tok has some people wondering if this should be an how much is social media party some kids live on the gates of the teenagers you're about to me then it would seem to be its essential they were involved in a car crash and almost immediately posted video on the popular app tik tok but leave it here these teams are recording the aftermath of a bad car accident that happened only moments earlier you can see the cracked when shield and then they got camera ready making a video that they posted on the popular tik tok app lipstick
while waiting for police what this shows is where young people have their priority here that they thought it was more of a priority to make a video ok i'm going to say this straight up this is how you know you don't have immigrant parents because if you crash your parents car and your parents is an immigrant forget me it took time you'll be writing your will like immigrant parents are the only ones who had shop to that question but i did my son survive luckily he's fine luckily is fine but i mean i guess this is just what kids in the social media generation do like there's no situation but they don't think of turning into viral content like if the movie taken came out now liam lesions daughter would probably mega tik tok under the bed there should be like you had ability where
speaking of corrects the trump administration everyday it feels like present from says something that causes outrage he's called countries in africa shithole sees decay that he's in love with kim jong own and lost we he said he was way cuter than baby yoda which is insane but sometimes it's easy to forget that while trumpets loudly offending people his administration is quietly fact in people fairly seven hundred thousand americans are now in jeopardy of losing their food stamps benefits under a new trump administration regulation the new regulation makes it more difficult for states to wave a requirement that able by needed dell's without children work at least when he hours per week its part the term administrations efforts to cut the supplemental nutrition programme otherwise known as snapped the administrations as the new rule aims to encourage those receiving snap to get a job ok just horrible man you're gonna cut food stamps to people
i think it's because you want to inspire them to get jobs like that's only going to make it harder to get a job how you supposed to make a good impression at an interview if you're hungry president be like so why do you want this job because i need a bitch to do this during the holidays you know like this a heartless from trump sometimes think trumps worldview is twisted terminals like i bet when trump a hundred one dalmatians it was a sad movie about a woman who couldn't get a coach are you not also find interesting honestly what i find interesting is that yours have politicians who takes services away from poor people because they claim it'll inspire them to become better but then when it comes to big corporations all of a sudden there attitude changes to we have to help these oil companies and these farmers they need our support you like what about poor people i guess we could give poorly the oil companies let fry we could try wherein finally if this
news has you worried about losing your food stamps and you just want to stock up in case well is a new food that will keep for awhile type of apple is hitting supermarkets this week and if you buy some might still be good for next year's holiday apple pie the cosmic chris reportedly could keep for more than a year in storage the apple is a cross between the enterprise and honey crisp apples and apparently gives them a higher shelf life while still building their naturally sweet flavour and they are resistant to browning ok what they invented a new apple that can last for a year why do we even need new apples ready to minneapolis okay we have so many
those out there we need white people to pick them that's too many we don't need fancy new app is that don't go bad you know we need we need fancy new oranges but not appeal themselves that's what they need to invent they're the ones we have now by the time you dumb peeling them your fingers look like strangled only to death i'm an orange and even their great as a food i mean half of it is just that white stuff you trying not to eat you know and oranges shit they named orange it's just a color someone took about no i like you don't deserve and identity so we only new apples we need new oranges and yeah that's right i just compare apples and orange everybody said it couldn't be god but i just did it i haven't impeachment it's like a juice plans for the oval office we're getting closer and closer to the fateful votes so let's go
drop on the latest developments in our ongoing segment the magical the road to impeachment presidential arrest me this morning impeachment took yet another major step forward when nancy pelosi speak of the house sober lucille blyth gathered up the flags she could find for a major announcements house bigger see pelosi announcing to the country and to the world that articles of impeachment against president trump will proceed you telling the american people that tromp has left the u s congress with no choice but to move forward sadly but with confidence and humility was elite and to our founders and her heart full of love for america today i am asking our chairman to proceed with articles of impeachment
my god oh my god i mean i knew when they reserve but hearing room that this would be it but you never know until they really happy for you guys now proposes announcement comes a day after the latest impeachment here where legal scholars were brought in to give their opinions on impeachment and most of them agreed that d j t needs to gta fall the three exports invited by democrats arguing that the present conduct regarding ukraine is exactly what the hours had in mind when they wrote impeachment into the constitution president trumps conduct as described in the testimony in evidence clearly constitutes impeach about high crimes and misdemeanours under the constitution if we are to keep faith with our constitution and with our republic president trump must be held to account if what we're talking about is not impeach of all
the nothing is impeach wow if this is not impenetrable than nothing is impenetrable most of us thought that sounded powerful but from really thinks that just means you can do whatever he wants you heard the news that nothing is empty job i can do they look at me i'm running a rabbit says that this is a guide me this is work for the day to day so the three constitutional experts called by the democrats testified yesterday the trumps actions were like super unimpeachable but according to the republicans on the committee these people one saying this because they can additional scholars now they were saying it because they drinking trump hatred just with a show of hands how many on the panel actually voted for raw donald trump and twenty sixteen i dont show or
to say anything about how we struggle to show of hands generally may ask the question the witnesses don't have to respond how many of you have been sorted out tromp in twenty sixteen show of hands you're not raising our hands is not an association of an answer sir ok can we just agree that well in power should never be asking anyone who they voted for one part of a healthy democracy there's a reason this occurred me on the voting booth it so you can cost your vote in secret and then shall afterwards ok and also like the sly way the congressmen was interrogating the panel you know i felt like i was what seen with christoph values like in also just by a show of hands how many of you actually voted for donald trump our friends here come on come on you can tell me
begins republicans and just say that these low professors were biased not they took one step further and went off to their credentials we had one professor who just absolutely fiction lies what the president said to meet her own development and then another study was so reluctant to go to impeachment when his tweet from day one nearly have been he wants to go speedy it's all i got to say is if you love america mama's don't let your babies grow up to go to harvard or for lost almost no let your babies go to harvard or stanford ethical wit now because like now i like to imagine that there is some family in the south where mother just found a harvard accepts letter that her daughter hid under the bed she's horrifying like what
this mary lou isn't there saplings wherever the horrors that model and now you want me to go to prison but this is my brain mama what's the point of living if i can't go to the canning school of government model how dare you said your mama lack knows what have you got it from me mama i'm also otto care view gay love is love you can let whoever you are those i didn't go to harvard i give you my new one mentally annie get your degree will be off broadway banking so basically that's what happened yesterday was a hearing with constitutional scholars that took us one step closer to impeachment all of it was pretty standard except for one more
but got everybody talking and was when one of the scholars made a joke that backfired hard one of the three scholars democrats called to testify had to apologize for mentioning the president thirteen year old son during her testimony republicans blasted stanford law professor pamela carlin after she tried to make a point that mr tromp does not have the same powers is king detention says there can be no titles of nobility so while the i can name his son baron he can't make him a barren when you vote the president's son's name here when you travel make a little joke outer referencing baron trump that does not lend com ability to your argument it makes you look me i want to apologize or what i said earlier about the president's son it was wrong of me to do that no prefer so what we are doing brought in for your legal expertise not try and make jokes the cnc spanned stand for comedy stands for crisis
the boring i look i'm not saying the professor had bad intentions but just as a rule dont drag trumps under age son into politics especially when you ve got these two dead gmos to make me sir if you like the world's most affordable personal injury attorneys lay them they look like fail clones of no one bar like they look like they run a club by the airport another classy one the other one with the bedbug problem why didn't go off the men some of those of the highlights from yesterday's impeachment hearings and after the break we'll be talking to our own legal expert who knows exactly what the founding fathers would have wanted we'll be right back

for law professors who testified brought here story lessons to the hearing with talk of american founding fathers and british monarchs we're looking back at might now to say what did the founding fathers there's invasion about this country that we are now in we find actually it fascinating to look back in the founding others and the definition of impatient and what it means because it really does matter this morning's hearing is meant to answer some basic but very important questions what is impeachment when is a justified should apply here what is impeachment shouldn't that before we started this whole thing is i care about you sex and then you like a gimme one second baby siri what is vagina is not the time but that's what he said it was all about democrats and republicans each bore a poem experts on to determine whether or not the founding fathers would have impeach donald trump so firm on this list
turn to our very own constitutional experts to bulgaria like everybody i was actually surprised to find someone you are an expert on the founding fathers none i just thought he does i can guarantee me pilots as actually really disappointing because i was hoping you could tell us if the founding fathers would have wanted trumped to be impeached or not trevor the truth is that's impossible you can guess what the founding fathers would do today based on what they wrote back then the world is just so differ now that's interesting checked for you are you saying that americans of today should apply their own principles instead of asking what the founders would have wanted no i'm saying we should still ass the founding fathers directly which is why of my
crystal ball while so why are you a medium term usually small geneva the boy oh yes i guess i concentrate spirit of george washington what do you think of impeaching the president oh wow ok ok what what what do you wouldn't say only saying he saying america's not a monarchy we don't want to king he said that we must honour our democratic traditions ok now he sang the inward not even like angry i just don't think he has another word for black people ok i think we got off track with him you book is there another founding father we could talk today ok ok i'm into contact thomas jefferson you want to speak to me he thinks i'm here
son low trevor omega while you hello president jefferson america need your guidance what things should happen with president from america stay true to your principles follow your heart don't hide yourself in regret just love yourself in your set you are on the right track baby we were born this way no mistakes i put you were born does this way haven't you know the way to sit siri were born serious the file
fathers warned listening to lady gaga dude maybe if they did we'd be in better shape right now and nurture boogie or whatever you want so my guess tonight is the golden globe emmy antonia award winning actor who plays roger ales in the new film bombshell jonathan
such an honour to have you on the show welcomes the daimio just delighted beyond the daily hand congratulations on what many people are just describing as a stella performance in the new movie bombshell this is one of those films where i think a lot of people i wanna be shaken up because blood people most people know fox news even around the world no a lot of people dont know the man behind fox news roger ales nor people have referred to him as a genius of television but then over time we learned that he was also a sexual predator in the workplace you're playing this character whose charismatic by many accounts but at the same time extremely evil is that difficult
vague or people well it was it was wonderfully written charles randolph created this amazed in character he didn't created roger ales created the character right but he presented an extraordinary way that the movie is a sixteen day period in which car market caught up with roger ales and watched him away so you had to egg i had to figure at present all these sides of this man he was he had a volatile temper he had a rock a sense of humour he was deeply insecure and yet he was very scary and tyrannised his his people they were the movie does an amazing job just showing how so many different women responded to him some of them were scared him some of them succumb to him some them
send him but some of them were very devoted and loyalty and it really is interesting because you see how different people respond to the same you know predatory force and i guess part of its part of it was because of roger s power he could make or break somebody's career he could define what you could i couldn't do in the world of news when you when you're reading up on roger ales and when you are preparing to play this character like www and find information on it because he was materially secretive it will the most interesting thing i did try down an old friend of mine who had actually worked as his producing partner in the nineteen seventys when ales was in its midst thirties and at the meaning of his career as a media consultant and does this the mind stephen rosen field he revealed a completely different roger ales this
something that nobody sees now the fact that this man was kind of a terrific company he could make you laugh he even tough on his very conservative political consultancy ryan speak because they were too serve active and didn't have enough empathy i was so astonished to hear this i couldn't wait to get does that tell j roach our director about it any time you play i mean i serve embraced the role of the one of the peace it's a movie very much about the women of fox particularly these three extraordinary actresses charlie's nicole and margo rights who it is their movie and they play very much in reaction to roger and i sort of accepted the role
the serve malevolent villain but you can't approach a character like that you have to approach a villains character like any character with empathy find out what is it that drives him it's interesting you say that because that sometimes is the reason but that these men are able to do what they do in societies because they know how to reveal the empathy to people and select moments in time you know and then i think without doing that you don't tell the real story because it becomes a caricature yet well i the movie puts an audience serve on guard it's in a way my own performance i serve tempt them to have sympathy with the devil and it's a very disoriented did disorienting feel like this is a man who is allowed to by so many people so i looked i just simply tried to find the things that people loved about my great my great asset was conny britain playing bethia
his wife who was completely devoted him protected him completely so in the story her great crisis was discovering that all of this was true and being disappear wisdom disillusioned by right husband i mean these are big high stakes emotional stories of sir shakespearean scope and because it's about a gigantic institution like fox news which has a lot to do with our entire culture yes as i say the stakes are are monumentally hi it's interesting that you say that you know because you you somebody who pay have no enlarged for a very long time and like many performers you have kept your politics to yourself for the most part you know you you a lot of people have chosen city
hey the auto speaks for itself and then i will i will privately votes and i will cost my balance but in the age of donald trump you have become outspoken about what you don't like about him and why you don't you appreciate this administration in fact even wrote a book in oh you illustrated this book called dumpty and that over the rail you no reason to think of his verses well what why don't you choose to write in that way will we either to mark is it you like what was it how you process the world we living in relative drew the age tromp has drawn me out politically as it has done a lot of people and but i'm an entertainer how do i respond to this by just finding the funny the way you do the way stephen
john oliver do i mean to me you're my great heroes these days i know you josie you have found a brilliant way of sir taking your own reactions your own political reaction to this they and making it into something that is both an entertainment and and exposing the truth this is my version of that they are doggerel poems there as funny as and possibly make them rights and yet there is an awful lot of anger in there and its this is there are thirty three poems and at each one of the subjects each one is one of the amazing cast of characters from the trumpet administration right most of whom are gone by now right
yeah i mean i was i was i was intrigue because i mean in the time it took me to read the scare movie poem he was in and out of the white house exactly that that is how many people are started like oh my god i completely forgot about tom price rights and john kelly these these people they just disappeared from view and as a result this has become a mini little history lesson on what we for the last two you know what i mean they i'm an actor and i respond to amazing larger than life characters look at em all i have my way of securing every one of them you do a fantastic job not just on the book on the movie is well thank you sort of arms opens in new york and defend the thirteenth and will be impeded nationwide december twenty a jolly
