There will be no more rainforest left in the entire world world [together] getting gay with kids is here to spread the word and bring you cheer getting gay with kids is here trevor you know, i live in new york, but if there is one thing i love about chicago, no trump, no trump tower, no trump hotel, no trump traffic, just chicago. I love this place i love all of it no, no what . from chicago, americas leading manufacturer of black persons, its the daily show undesked with trevor noah cheers and applause trevor whats going on, chicago . welcome, everybody welcome, welcome, welcome, welcome, everybody im trevor noah cheers and applause and this is day two of the daily show in chicago cheers and applause thank you so much for coming out take a seat, everybody weve got a great show in store tonight. Were going to be chatting to two local heros arne duncan and curtis toler here to talk about cred. Its an Amazing Program helping young men get off the streets and make a great life for themselves. So thats going to be an amazing conversation coming up. cheers and applause but first, how are you guys feeling about the cubs . Good . cheers and applause i can see some of you are a little bit nervous. Im not going to lie, im loving this atmosphere and i think its pretty hilarious just to see how people in chicago went from, man, after 108 years i wish we could just win once, just one time. And now people are, like, we want it every year we deserve it every year cheering all of it applause and now, look, i know i know that some of you are nervous that chicago wont win any more championships, but i have good news for you. Turns out youve already won. Chicago is once again the rattiest city in the u. S. Thats according to orkin which just released the list of cities with the most vermin and chicago is once again at the top, number one. cheering trevor yes chicago rat champions again second city my ass laughter first city. Which is weird. Im not going to lie, this is weird to me, because i always think of chicago as incredibly clean but now i realize its just because the rats are eating your garbage. Thats all it is. laughter by the way, this is actually the third year in a row that chicago topped the most rats list. Its your first three peeps since jordan, people. Thats impressive. I wonder if the theres a rat Michael Jordan thinking, yo, ive got to get my own line of shoes now, i made it, baby, i made it applause i will say rat jordan gets all the credit but dont overlook rat pippen and rat dennis rodman. Its a team effort, everyone participates. laughter this whole rattiest city list is based on how many people make calls to exterminators. So its not necessarily true that new york has fewer rats. Its just that new york dont snitch. laughter yeah. Whos the real rat now, chicago . The rat or the one who rats them out is the rat . Theyre the rodents. Its a trick question. I bet youre wondering, whats the prize for the most rats in chicago . Good news, people, everybody, look under your seats look under your seats no, i need you to check, please. Im afraid of rats. Check under your seats. Just want to make sure. laughter speaking of hairy creatures, yesterday President Trump held a surprise press conference with Senate Majority leader Mitch Mcconnell which is kind of the worst surprise ever. Surprise, i brought Mitch Mcconnell boo what kind of Surprise Party is Mitch Mcconnell . bleep kill yourself laughter all of this is happening because Donald Trumps presidency has resulted in no major legislative accomplishments, all right, and part of it is because people think trump and the senate dont get along which is true but they dont want people to know tha which is why trump and mitch came out to say theyre not just colleagues, theyve been best b. F. F. S forever. Contrary to what some of you may have reported, we are together totally. We have been friends and acquaintances for a long time. Despite what we read, were probably now what i think, at least as far as im concerned, closer than ever before. My relationship with this gentleman is outstanding, has been outstanding. laughter trevor i dont know, somethings fishy here. They sound less like real friends and more like trumps trying to get mitch a green card. This gentleman im going to say mitch, right . Yeah. Mr. Immigration officer, this relationship is so special. Thats what you said about melania. Okay, i admit that was a scam but this one is real. laughter its funny watching these two try and sell us their romance. Its, like, who are they trying to convince . Because all you have to do is compare yesterday to every other thing that theyve said. There have been a number of stories in the last couple of weeks saying Mitch Mcconnell and President Trump basically hate each other. Im very disappointed in mitch. Mccome says privately he is uncertain that trump will be able to salvage his presidency. In a series of tweets this month, mr. Trump criticized mr. Mcconnell publicly and berated limb in a phone call that quickly devolved into a profane shouting match. Trevor okay, you know what . Im going to take that back. Actually that does sound like real love laughter isnt that love . Every phone call devolves into a profane shouting match . Thats love. A few weeks away of hearing trump was throwing all mitchs stuff out his Senate Office window, mitch is like stop it donald, youre being ridiculous. I love you, mitch put a shirt on, youre embarrassing the neighborhood. This is me, mitch youve got to accept me you never loved me. Come on, everybodys watching. Nobody cares, mitch. Nobody cares nobody cheers and applause so the goal of the press difference was to make everyone forget about all of that stuff. Trump did accomplish that, he did a good job. He made people forget the same way he usually makes people forget about any issue by creating an entirely new issue when a reporter asked him this question. Why havent we heard anything from you about the soldiers killed in niger . Ive written them personal letters. They have been sent or theyre going out tonight but they were during the weekend. I will at some point during the period of time call the parents and the families because i have done that traditionally. Trevor okay, you know, im not sure whats worse, the fact that President Trump said nothing after four american soldiers were killed in niger or the fact that his first Public Statement about it was basically the dog ate my homework. Like, i wish trump just came out and told the truth. Would be like, yo, trump, why didnt you call or Say Something . You know why i said nothing . Because i was afraid to mispronounce niger, okay . Thats the truth, woke. applause instead of just admitting fault, he somehow found a way to make this about obama. The traditional way of you look at president obama and other president s, most of them didnt make calls, a lot of them tinted make calls. I like to call when its appropriate when i think im able to do it. Earlier you said president obama never called the families of fallen soldiers. How can you make that i was told he didnt often and a lot of president s dont, they write letters. Excuse me, peter. I do a combination of poet. I like, when i can, a combination of a call and also a letter. Trevor wow, okay. I dont know if you notice what he just did there. See what he said . President obama never called. I call and i write. I also havent called and i didnt write but i do except when i dont which is now. Pretty much now. Yeah. cheers and applause i deserve credit. Oh, get out, go what are you doing here . Get out of here applause sorry. Its the locals. laughter i feel really bad for Mitch Mcconnell, man. Im not going to lie because this day was supposed to be about showing off unity, right . Instead, the trump train derailed what was supposed to be a simple photo opportunity. I dont know why republicans insist on letting trump speak. They should just stage relationship paparazzi pictures. Thats all you need. Yeah. I can see it now, like a trump and mcconnell sharing a milkshake. People are, like, wow could this be tax reform . Who knows . Well be right back cheers and applause welcome hows it going . Hi okay, so youve got two friends here. Yes. This is the j. D. Power award for dependability. Now i want you to give it to the friend that you think is most dependable. Ohhhh. Ughh. Wow. Thats just not fair. Does she have to . She doesnt have to oh, i dont . No, but its a tough choice, isnt it . Yes. Well luckily, chevy makes it a little easier. Cause its the only brand to earn j. D. Power dependability awards for cars, trucks and suvs two years in a row. Thats amazing. Chevys a name you can trust wantsure ack . Alright, looks like weve got chips, popcorn, pretzels . Pretzels plain, sourdough, spicy, sesame, honey mustard, chocolate covered, Peanut Butter filled, this ones in german, it says, reindfleisch . Plain. Great. So what are we gonna watch . Oh show me fall tv. Check out the best of the best handpicked fall shows on xfinity x1, online, and the Xfinity Stream app. Thirsty . Trevor welcome back to the daily show coming to you all week from chicago cheers and applause now, historically, everyone who travels from new york to chicago has to fight about pizza. So we sent ronny chieng to continue that tradition, and he discovered something new. Chicago, big city. Windy city. Opinionated city. Whether youre from hyde park, lincoln park or wicker park, why is everything a park . Their food is as iconic as their corruption. Als italian beef sandwich. Garretts addicted popcorn picks. Hot dogs and the legendary chicago pizza ive heard so much about. What the bleep is this . This is chicago deep dish pizza. I said i wanted a pizza not some italian guys dump on a plate. This looks like me eating pizza, throwing it up into a bread bowl and leaving it in the sun to dry. This is how chicago does pizza. Im prized you cant get a decent piece of pizza, the birth place of obama, Michael Jordan none of those people were born here. Birthers where can i find a decent slice in the city . So this stupid bull i couldnt find a single place that sold real pizza. Just these deep dish dough dumpsters. This isnt pizza. This isnt even human food. After hours of only deep dish, i finally found a place that served delicious, normal pizza pie. The Cook County Jail. door slams thats right, the best pizza in chicago is in the biggest jail in america. This Gourmet Pizza is actually made by and sold to inmates as part of a Training Program called recipe for change. Recipe for change has made it a point to put together a program where we have phenomenal pizza. Thomas dodd is the sheriff of Cook County Jail. Hes been running the Pizza Program for four years. We have a lot of good pizza in chicago. This is really good, though. What do you mean there is good pizza in chicago. Have you tried that deep dish chicago pizza . Yeah, but the inmates didnt want that. So youre telling me even in jail people did not want deep dish pizza . They havent been asking for it. Recipe for change is one of several rehab programs at the Cook County Jail along with drumming, painting, chess, gardening and more. So what made you become a hero sheriff and not a joe pieo sheriff . Its expensive to incarcerate people, its not expensive to give them a skill. The man giving the skill . Bruno abate who volunteers his time and expertise to teach inmates how to cook the best pizza in chicago. What do you think about this pizza . People should not eat this its like a brick. Look at this. Look. I mean, i dont know where you uh buy this. I dont want to know. But this is shame. After a straight hour of bleep on deep dish pizza, chef bruno finally got on to telling me more about how his program is affecting inmates. The program recipe is to opt your mind, your brain, give your identity. Give you pizza. Everyone in the Cook County Jail wants to be a part of this great program. I learned how to be a better leader. I learned how to work with a lot of other people. I learned how to eat better. It was great to be with people in chicago who understood what pizza is supposed to look and taste like. Guys, this pizza is genuinely awesome. You must have people lining up around the block to buy this. Actually, its only for inmates. Guys were going to rescue chicago from that bull bleep deep dish pizza. I know the pizza is great but this is not how you deal with conflict. All right, ill be right back. Hey, where are you going with the pizza . Honey knew pizza this food wasnt meant to be caged. He also really loved prison escape movies. Ronny, where are you . Look at the mess. In october 2017, ronny chieng smuggled thin crust pizza out of Cook County Jail. Oh, ronny loved pizza but ealso hated chicago deep dish. He had to find a way to get thincrust pizza to the people of shifnlgt all it takes to get pizza out is cheese, dough and time. That and a bigass poster. Ronny chieng he crawled through a river of marinara and came out smelling like basil. cheers and applause trevor ronny chieng, everybody well be right back cheers and applause help from my friends ] vw drivers have always put others first.

Nailed it watch this watch this watch this watch this cheers and applause trevor welcome back to the daily show in chicago. One Chicago Organization is trying to reduce gang and gun violence with a radical idea. Get young atrisk black men off the streets by offering them training, counseling and opportunities to earn a paycheck. The Program Chicago cred was launched by the Emerson Collective and the former u. S. Secretary of education and c. E. O. Of Chicago Public schools a former chicago gang leader is also a mentor and a leading architect of the program, ladies and gentlemen, please welcome arne duncan and curtis toler. cheers and applause welcome to the show. Thank you. Trevor arne, lets start with you. You came back, helped set this program up and started rehabilitating and working with and moving people towards a different life. I know youre no stranger to the idea of the conversation people have where they say why would you pump money into these people . Why would you give felons a chance . Why do you think thats necessary in society and more importantly do you actually see the results of the work youre doing . As a society were pumping in huge amounts of money to these guys. If you lock guys up in Cook County Jail, thats 55,000 to 60,000 a year to lock them up. So taxpayers are paying a lot of money for the violence, for the tough times, im actually extraordinarily hopeful. Our guys want to change, you spent time with them earlier today. Were giving them a rationale choice they never had. People say youre giving them a second chance. Its a first chance. They never had a real chance. And to have a chance to have a job cheers and applause these are young men, the violence here in chicago is very targeted. 15 communities, 75 of the violence. 80 of those shooting and being shot are young black men of color 17 to 24. Our job is to empower them but theyre going to lead chicago where we need to go, were just trying to give them a platform to take us there. cheers and applause trevor the cred program is unique in that its a wraparound program, so you have programs where people go out and speak to the youth, you have programs where people try and rehabilitate atrisk black men who are in these communities that are segregated, but, curtis, you emerged as one of the people cred is really using as a role model. You know, you were involved in a life of crime. You came from a background that most people may not have even lived to talk about. Tell us about your story and tell us how you got to this place where you went from being someone involved in crime and spending time in jail to someone whos now a mentor and a role model. Earlier today, we had a conversation, and it was very interesting that you said that, you know, that violence is violence wherever you go, right . And wherever you have impoverished communities, there is usually violence, and you also said that you grew up in an abusive household. I did as well. Im not proud of being labeled as a former one of the former leaders of a chicago street gang here. I can remember my grandmother coming home from the they have caps meetings here in chicago, right and block club meetings. She came home and she was in tears and she said, the whole meeting was about you and how you should be locked up and never let out because you are destroying our community. And it didnt settle in at that particular time but, as i got older and my grandmother passed and i always thought back that one day im going to make my grandmother proud and i think thats what im doing today. cheers and applause trevor air me, theres a larger dream in all of this. What do you hope to achieve . Can it scale . What is the idea behind the cred program . If we could get to 2,000 young men, the chief of police will tell you there are 1500 active shooters in chicago. A lot of guys carry guns, often defensively, not many shooting. In a city with all these resources, wealth, business, philanthropy, what if we could find jobs for the 2,000 guys most likely to shoot or be shot . What if we could give them a mentor and a life coach and the services they need . We could bring the violence down, i am convinced, precipitously. cheers and applause trevor i will say just starting off with the two you have seems like people are headed in the right direction. We hope to have you back when you hit the 2,000. Everyone in chicago appreciate what youre doing. Everyone in america does, really. Thank you so much, check out chicagocred. Org for more information about their work. Chicagocred. Org. Arne duncan, curtis toler, everybody. Well be right back. cheers and applause
