Studies that show the medication has no proven benefits for coronavirus patients and maybe he is taking it, but this sounds like when the cops pull you over and you admit to having a couple of beers so they dont find all the weed and cocaine in your glove compartment. Yeah, just a little hydroxy after work with the guys i live close to here. Thats right, President Trump said yesterday that hes been taking hydroxychloroquine to protect himself from the coronavirus, and told a reporter hes, quote, not going to get hurt by it, its been around for 40 years. Come on, man, you know better than anyone that just because somethings been around for 40 years doesnt mean its good. President trump tweeted yesterday that fox news has more antitrump people than ever. And claimed hes, quote, looking for a new outlet. A new outlet where . No outlet praises you more thats like meryl streep complaining about how the oscars treat her. New york mayor bill de blasio said yesterday that he expects the city to begin the first phase of reopening in the first half of june, while everyone in central park expects it to open a few weeks ago. White house officials have announced that President Trump will go to michigan on thursday to tour a ford plant that is producing ventilators for hospitals. But only because he heard there would be an escort there car jokes today [ light laughter ] just a good you know, sometimes you just want a good car joke today was National Hepatitis testing day. Said trump, i got an a, you guys. Bachelorette star hannah brown has apologized after she said the n word during an Instagram Live stream this weekend while singing along to a song. Even worse, the song was happy birthday, so an ice cream shop in hong kong is offering a socalled tear gas flavor inspired by last years prodemocracy protest. Or if you really want your kids to cry, get them rum raisin. And finally, a soccer club in south korea has issued an apology after they were accused of placing sex dolls in the empty stands of a game and it was pretty embarrassing for the guy who proposed to one on the jumbotron what did she say . I dont know. She was she was definitely surprised. Thats the monologue we got a great show for you tonight. You know issa rae from her hit hbo show insecure. And shes got a new movie on netflix called the lovebirds. It comes out this week and ill be chatting with the very funny comedian tom papa red nose day, a campaign to end child poverty, is back at walgreens for its sixth year now more than ever lets spread kindness and help children in need donate at walgreens. Com rednoseday and you can also learn how to unlock your own digital nose and now a closer look. Seth hello, everyone, and welcome back to the attic. A lot of you have commented on the length of my hair recently some of you have gone so far as to tweet that with my hair this long, i look like a less attractive josh meyers and to those people, i just want to say, mom, when did you get on twitter . But rest assured, as soon as i can get a haircut, i will. Or maybe, just maybe ill let it keep growing and get a job as one of trumps doctors and speaking of trumps doctors, theyre bad. Because they either gave the president hydroxychloroquine or hes lying about taking it and honestly, im not sure which is more psychotic. For more on this its time for a closer look. Seth President Trump is overseeing one of the worst cataclysms in American History and part of the reason for that is hes less focused on prevention and more focused on pushing shortcuts and unproven miracle cures, which his own medical advisers have repeatedly pushed back on deborah, have you ever heard of that, uh the heat and the light relative to certain viruses, yes, but relative to this virus not as a treatment. You take a solid flu vaccine, you dont think that would have an impact or much of an impact on corona . No. Seth okay but what if you take a battery, say, i dont know, a six volt, and you cover it with peptobismol and maybe like put it under your pillow overnight, would that work . Okay shaking your head no on that one. What if instead of a battery, its sudafed and you bury it in your backyard and the first person who finds it is immune is that possible okay you know what, i cant tell if youre shaking your head no or shaking your head yes. Or its back and forth which one is it . You know what . Why dont we just offline this . Because the modern conservative movement is largely a haven for hucksters and conartists, it makes sense that they felt for a guy who spent his whole career selling chintzy and in many cases fraudulent products. We all know about the steaks, the water, the wine, the ties, the magazine, the trump foundation, the trump institute, the trump network, trump university, trump mortgage, trump dojo, trump airlines, the vodka, the deodorant and yes, we made up trump dojo but really, would it surprise you if we hadnt cant you just picture him in a karate uniform and black belt doing his own commercials in between traffic reports on the local news come on down to trump dojo. Well teach you moves like judo, taekwondo, and my favorite, jiujitsuemeforunpaidbills. I mean, hes always doing those weird hand movements that look like some janky version of business karate. Im blocking your question. And now im bouncing it. Im bouncing it back to you. And that thats business hand karate and the tapes, the howto tapes can be yours for just 19. 99. Even trumps president ial campaign was a crappy asseenontv scam product as his lawyer Michael Cohen explained in congressional testimony last year. Donald trump is a man who ran for office to make his brand great, not to make our country great. He had no desire or intention to lead this nation only to market himself and to build his wealth and power mr. Trump would often say, this campaign was going to be the greatest infomercial in political history. Seth of course it was an infomercial. Thats why his baggy suits look like slankets. He pumps his fists like hes holding two shake weights. And he sits like hes using a thighmaster. The great thing about invisible thighmaster is it doesnt take up closet space. And it can be yours for 19. 99. And trump doesnt just treat his own campaign and presidency like an infomercial he also surrounds himself with other infomercial salesmen, like the mypillow guy or con artists like his former acting attorney general Matthew Whitaker remember him who helped run a scam patent company accused of bilking investors out of millions and once marketed a socalled masculine toilet which boasted a speciallydesigned bowl to help wellendowed men avoid unwanted contact with porcelain or water. The average male genitalia is between five and six inches, the firms press release said, however, this invention is designed for those of us who measure longer than that. So you went through all the trouble of coming up with a scam product just so you could put out a press release making it sound like you got a big [ bleep ]. Did you even sell any of these toilets . Or did you just put the title in your tinder bio . Also, give me a break. Youre telling me your dong is so big, every time you squat down in a toilet, youre taking a tip dip in the tool pool and yeah, i did just come up with the terms tip dip and tool pool, and im not saying they should start selling the masculine toilet again, but if they did, they could use both of those terms in their advertising for a very reasonable royalty. Anyway, the point is, trump didnt come out of nowhere remember, this is a party that has elevated socalled prosperity gospel preachers, radio hosts who sell their audience vitamins and gold coins, and tv doctors like dr. Oz and dr. Phil who for some reason always glows like he just took a bath in a nuclear reactor. In fact trump himself once even had his own Health Care Company called the trump network, which asserted that it could use a urine test to recommend customized nutritional supplements. It also offered products that purportedly tested for allergies and bone health, but scientists said such claims were never backed up by modern medicine oh, they werent so youre telling me, if i mail my urine to the guy who told people they could cure coronavirus by mixing themselves a clorox cocktail, he cant really improve my bone health . Knowing trump, he wanted your urine for Something Else thats probably why trump vodka tasted like piss who cares what it tastes like, its yours for 19. 99. So as shocking as it was, it only made sense that trump would publicly announce to the world in the middle of a pandemic that ravaged the country due in large part to his incompetence that he was personally taking a potentially dangerous antimalaria drug to prevent coronavirus that hes been hawking without proof for weeks. A lot of good things have come out about the hydroxy. A lot of good things have come out. I happen to be taking it i happen to be taking it [ talking over each other im taking it. Hydroxychloroquine when . Right now, yeah a couple of weeks ago, i started taking it. Why because i think its good, i heard a lot of good stories. Can you explain, sir, though, what is the evidence that it has a preventive effect . Here we go. Are you ready . Heres my evidence i get a lot of positive calls about it seth youve got to be careful, man people your age get a lot of scam calls it wouldnt surprise me if we found out the white house had a reverse mortgage on it dont worry, guys, magnum told me this was above board. Your evidence is that you hear good stories and get positive calls about it were talking about a potentially dangerous medication, not the new hibachi place in town. I heard good i love the Little Volcano they make with the onions, but be careful one time i leaned over the grill too far. Thats why i look like this. Also dont say are you ready like youre about to blow everyones mind and then follow it up with i hear good stories. Hes like a skateboarder who tells his bros to film this and then immediately lands nards first on a handrail. Oh, bro, im posting this right now, tipdip look, now that the term exists, were going to use it. Im really having a hard time wrapping my head around this and how psychotic it is. I mean, look, trumps gonna say and do crazy [ bleep ] he failed in the Pandemic Response and unemployment is at its highest point in 100 years so now hes spraying ink in the water so he can dart under a rock before the press can figure out what happened. We dont have to spend all day dissecting it, debating whether its a chess move or a planned distraction. The guy doesnt play chess he doesnt even know how to close an umbrella. Watching him play chess would be like asking your dog to change the channel on the remote control. Hey, man, you watching the game . No, Animal Planet again. But what is important is that trump, as the president , actually i like the time he mused about disinfectants curing the virus and people actually called their state and local governments to ask if it was okay to chug bleach we had hundreds of calls come into our emergency hotline at our health department, asking if it was if it was right to ingest clorox or, you know, alcohol cleaning products, whether that was going to help them fight the virus so we had to put out that warning to make sure that people were not doing Something Like that, which would kill people, actually, to do it seth the government actually had to tell people dont listen to the president , ingesting bleach is bad. But i do like that people were considering drinking bleach, but also responsible enough to call and check first. Uhhuh. Uhhuh oh so, it burns really that much . Well, good thing i called, and you have a nice day too. [ laughter ] this is a medication that could have potentially deadly side effects. A small chloroquine study in brazil was halted over the risk of fatal heart complications in patients a french study found that how hydroxychloroquine doesnt help patients with coronavirus. And a study found that the drug was linked to higher rates of death in coronavirus patients. And the side effects can potentially include agitation, insomnia, confusion, mania, hallucinations, paranoia, as well as lasting psychiatric and neurological symptoms. So either trumps lying about taking it, or hes been taking it for 73 years . Our baby is pretty colicky just give him a little hydroxychloroquine on his gums for the rest of his life so thats on top of the hallucinations he already has. Is there a possible reverse effect where the hallucinations and paranoia cancel each other out and makes him normal is he going to show up to his next press conference in a plaid shirt and khakis hello, everyone, my name is don, and i just want to say the press is an invaluable part of our democracy. Now if youll excuse me, im going to go drink some water by bringing the glass up to my face with one hand like a normal person. In fact judging from this comment about the madeup scandal he calls obamagate, it sounds like trump might already be feeling some side effects obama knew everything that was happening. I dont think obama knows where he where he, you know, is in a lot of ways. I saw his statements the other day, and i think that frankly they werent very good thats president obama seth damn, are you swallowing the hydroxychloroquine or snorting it come on, man, let me get my drox on. Daddys got to ride the quin [ sniffs ] hail, hydra. And then theres the fact that trumps relentless hawking of this product has created shortages for people who need it its a lifesaving drug for people with conditions like lupus. And they were already struggling to get hydroxychloroquine, due in part to the president hyping it up as a coronavirus treatment. Lupus patients reported having to ration their pills because of the hydroxychloroquine shortage, with one telling usa today, when i have that medicine i can live life normally and dont have to think about it now i have to stop and think before i even pick up my toothbrush to brush my teeth, and thats horrifying, because if people get distracted before brushing, youll have to deal with a second ailment known as rudys teeth. Rudy, ugh. My god, man, ive never said this to anyone, but maybe have your teeth removed you might look better with just gums seriously, how are your top teeth and bottom teeth so different . Could you only afford half a box of crest whitestrips most Public Health experts have cautioned against the president s reckless touting of hydroxychloroquine, like ousted vaccine chief rick bright who testified last week that he was punished in part for questioning trumps advertising of the drug. I believe part of the removal process for me was initiated because of a pushback that i gave when they asked me to put in place an expanded access protocol that would make chloroquine more freely available to americans that were not under the close supervision of a physician and may not even be confirmed to be infected with the coronavirus. Seth they wanted to give it to people who did not even have coronavirus. You know, when i heard that, i never thought that last group would include the president of the united states. They asked me to make chloroquine freely available to americans that were not under the close supervision of a doctor, may not be infected with coronavirus, and whose symptoms include sitting on the edge of their seat like theyre trying to not to take a, umm a, umm, tip dip in the tool pool. But the hype got started with a small french study of just 20 patients, which medical experts have since called pathetic and a complete failure, and which the publisher itself has said didnt meet its standards. The study was coauthored by an eccentric french doctor named Didier Raoult. And before i show you his photo, here is a photo of trumps former doctor, harold bornstein. Remember him now, i want you to imagine what Didier Raoult looks like are you ready . Okay here he is mon dieu hes harold bornsteins french cousin hey, didi, want to come over to the states, man . I got backstage passes to the steely dan concert. Hello, my american cousin i wish i could, but i am busy attaching electrodes to a baguette to see if it will talk. Seriously, why do all of trumps favorite doctors look like they found their medical degree in a portapotty at woodstock . They look like they went into quarantine during the swine flu and just never came out. Hey, man, i think its safe, man. Didier, i think its safe. And just to give you an idea of how psychotic trumps comment was, doctors and tv anchors had to urge viewers not to follow his lead even fox news urged caution. If you are in a riskypolatioe taking this as a preventive treatment to ward off the virus or in a worst Case Scenario you are dealing with the virus, and you are in this vulnerable population, it will kill you i cannot stress enough, this will kill you. It sounds like what youre saying, you have a risk of losing your life if you do what the president just recommended thats correct. Be very, very careful of what you put in your mouth. And what you swallow, be it liquid or solid. Seth thats right, thanks to the president , a doctor literally had to go on tv and tell people, be careful what you put in your mouth and what you swallow, like he was talking to children playing with matchbox cars donald, where is that toy car you were just playing with . Uh, it went through a tunnel. Of course fox news has been loyally parroting trumps hydroxychloroquine talking points for weeks now and the surprising show of dissent from cavuto prompted a characteristically pissy tweet from trump last night. Fox news is no longer the same, we miss the great roger ailes. You have more antitrump people by far than ever before. Looking for a new outlet. Ah, yes, the great roger ailes, the famous creep who oversaw a culture of paranoia and Sexual Harassment at fox news that led to him getting fired by liberal snowflake, lets see, Rupert Murdoch the conservative movement elevated a huckster who spent his career pushing scam products and miracle cures to the presidency and now hes doing the same thing with a pandemic that has ravaged the country and cratered the economy. Next time people think about voting for trump, the media might want to warn them, theres a chance it will kill you. Seth this has been a closer look.

Seth our first guest is an emmynominated actress and writer you know from her hit hbo series, insecure. She both executive produced and stars in the lovebirds, which is available this friday on netflix. Heres my conversation with issa rae seth welcome back to the show, issa, how are you . I am doing great. How are you doing . Seth im doing very well do you have a quarantine schedule do you have a way through the day . Thats the only way that im surviving. Im such a routine person in general. So this has been like heaven and hell simultaneously. [ laughter ] so as long as i keep that routine, im all right seth like a lot of people, ive been listening to a fair amount of podcasts through this. And i heard you on a podcast called the rewatchables with bill simmons where you were talking about groundhog day is one of your favorite movies. Do you feel as though youre living through that now . Yeah, definitely. I think you know, which is thats one of the greatest movies of all time, one of my favorite movies and it was such a treat to talk about that but it is like youre waking up with the same alarm every single day, going to the same parts of your house the only bad part is that there are consequences for my actions. Seth yeah, of course were you always have you always been a big bill murray fan . I have. I mean, i grew up on ghostbusters. Yeah, hes just always been a staple seeing him on saturday night live, obviously, hes a treat seth he is a treat another treat is and you guys did this film together it was supposed to premiere at south by southwest of course that was one of the many things that was canceled. Now its going to premiere on netflix. Can you tell us a little bit about the movie . Yeah, the movie is about a couple that is kind of reached a stagnant point in their relationship and are going out on, you know, a night theyre going on a night out and they are framed for murder, like those things happen seth its good, though sometimes a couple needs to be framed for murder to appreciate one another. Just to spice things up, like, you know, things get boring and i want to know what youre like when our lives are on the line seth there is a horse in the film this was not a real horse throughout the course of the film there was some fake horsing happening. There was some fake horsery for our safety, for kumails safety seth yeah. You know you see him, in the trailer, gets kicked by a horse and i made sure, when the real horse was there, that i kept distance from it seth im like you 100 i never feel comfortable around horses i dont not even have you ridden on a horse . Is that something that seems relaxing to you at all not relaxing. No seth yeah. Ive done the side horse thing but even that, someone was holding my hand and guiding me but no have you ridden a horse . Seth yeah, i have ridden a horse. And i hated every second of it its not i mean, like, i just dont like that another brain is in charge of my speed. Exactly, and youre just this, its an animal seth yeah. And theres not even like you know, theres no reasoning with it, so it can do whatever it feels like. So its horrifying seth a lot of attention, for my money correctly so, has been paid to the transformation of kumail, who has for a long, long time been one of the funniest people working and then he got cast in a marvel project and now has the most super ripped body of all time. Im wondering if on set for this film, which was before that, he shot his marvel project, was kumail very i imagine, conscious to what he was eating . He was conscious. He had just started the journey. And to me thats heaven. Because im a fad diet, crash diet person, so im always doing something. So to meet a guy who was just as food conscious as i was its not something i do well i just like to try Different Things its nice to have an accountability partner but he really just took it to another level. And im extremely jealous of him. Seth i also want to congratulate you, you got picked up for another season of insecure. And you posted a photo you are writing in the zoom room hows that going its its you know, watching 15 squares on the screen [ laughter ] and you know this from being like in a room where youre used to cracking jokes and things like that. Seth yeah. So hard to get that chemistry right, but were managing and maintaining. Seth also its not out of a place of laziness, but i think sometimes when youre writing collectively there is a lot of time that is sort of wasted but in a way that gets the juices flowing. And i do not feel that juices flow particularly well through the zoom boxes no. Its so much more efficient in the worst way. Seth yeah. Its like you have these hours, and we just get down to business i think there are rare lapses of like laughter. But we are getting way more done, so hbo is getting the bang for their buck, but its way less seth less enjoyable. I want to talk about season four you mess around with the narrative structure in way that was really cool in that there was a you played around with time a great deal. The first half of the season was sort of building forward almost episode. Onths jump, each what made you want to approach this season that way were you d with the way you were doing it before, or did it just appear to you as an idea yeah, a little bit of both. Its always fun to just like change up your storytelling. And we knew going in that we wanted to start with this very controversial, kind of salacious, statement from the character i play about not messing with her best friend anymore. And so we wanted to show the build to that, because we knew that we were building a communication breakdown in a friendship and sometimes its just the little things, those little moments that lead to the deterioration of a friendship. And that really interested us. Seth when you come up with an idea like that, is the writing staff enthusiastic from the beginning . [ laughter ] thats such a good question [ laughter ] they are they are cautiously optimistic, just like, oh, this might this might be great [ door bell rings im so sorry are yall good with this seth thats great, i love it that is an actual doorbell youve okayed. You have it all the time [ laughter ] it came with the house. [ laughter ] i havent gotten a chance to change it, but now im going to. Seth i mean, the good news is it could have been way more embarrassing if it was i mean, if it was like your theme song or something. This is way at least we believe that it came with the house oh, man im fully changing it after this thank you for that [ laughter ] yeah, i forgot the question. Seth thats alright. Well, i do want to ask, cause you talked about how you and molly have a falling out in the show and you know, that is sort of the strongest friendship on the show and you must get feedback in real time from what, you know, is a very enthusiastic fan base. How have people been reacting to that people have been very, very onesided in terms of who theyre blaming. Ive seen a lot of like arguments online and you know, weve been off the show weve been off the air for like a year and a half and it has been kind of ghost in a way. And so i forgot how much people interact with the show so its such a great thing, and an exciting thing that theyre theyve latched on to these characters and these sides but its also fully insane seth well, it must be great to have fans who care that much about the show and it must be wonderful to have them back in your ear with their thoughts [ laughter ] yeah, im grateful. I will say that. S you know, you dont get a lot of shows dont get that opportunity. And it is great to have people so invested in the story that were telling. Seth thats awesome. Hey, congrats on having another season coming. Congrats on the film and thanks so much for making time for us, issa. Thank you so much for having me on again. Seth hopefully ill see you in person next time. Okay. No doorbells [ laughter ] seth well be right back with comedian tom papa a new moment in wireless has begun.

Hes also the host of the podcast breaking bread with tom papa. Please welcome to the show tom papa seth welcome to the show, tom. And i do want to start by saying that your book is in the catbird seat here. Im displaying it with my copy of the thorn birds. Oh, im so i cant tell you how honored i am because i have in my when i was growing up, we had the thorn birds. I think it was also with Lonesome Dove. Seth oh, thats a good one Lonesome Dove is a good one. Ae and to see my book on [ laughte] i cant lie, ive been waiting for this moment. [ laughter ] seth were happy to have you here and i want to talk about the book but we saw each other last year. You are an incredibly accomplished, talented comedian. But i saw you give an absolutely Perfect PitchPerfect Performance as a pastor. You married colin quinn and jen sochko, who is a producer on our show and you have actually married some other comedians is this correct . Yeah, colin was actually my fifth one that ive done i did rachel feinsteins and noam dworman who owns the comedy cellar, and lenny marcus. I became like the goto guy for weddings [ light laughter ] seth i tracked you down that night to compliment the job you did, because, you know, i think doing comedy in front of comedians is hard enough as it is yeah. Seth but to do it on a night that everyone is going to remember do you versus regular jokewriting, do you feel that pressure when youre writing like that . Oh. [ light laughter ] yeah, i mean, i wrote that thing for six months straight. I just kept writing and writing and writing. And especially knowing that its colin quinn who is one of the most prolific, funniest, and judgmental comedians we have [ laughter ] standing this far from my face i was oh, the pressure, every word, every line you were really funny at the end of it, because you pointed out the worst part of the whole thing is, even if it goes well, which it did, thank god thats the only time you get to do it. Seth yeah. And you said youve given some commencement speeches and things like that and youve worked so hard and then, poof, its just gone seth yup you wrote this book, and you obviously put a lot of work into this and then its called youre doing great and other reasons to stay alive. But obviously this was written before a pandemic hit. Yeah. Seth and basically came out as this was happening. Were you because this is a book that is optimistic. Were you worried that optimistic message right now would not be what people would want and what have you found the outcome to be . Yeah, you know, the line and other reasons to stay alive, i thought it was just being funny. [ laughter ] you know i didnt know that it was going to be that relevant. But when the first, like, two weeks of the shutdown, the shelter at home, i had to go do the audio book so i drove in l. A. , only car on the road, very secretive, went to like an undisclosed location. One guy with a mask. And i was conscious of that. I was like, when i read this, is it going to is it going to be trite or shallow, you know, because it is optimistic and its about being hopeful despite having hard times. And it actually really held up it made it seem it actually made me wake up to the idea that hope is something i really cherish and always want, and work hard on keeping and its easy when things are going pretty good. Its always to be like, yeah, im pretty hopeful, things are going to work out. But when things are heavy, to be hopeful, thats the real challenge of being hopeful and thats where the book kind of really just took on a little bit more resonance seth you recognized coughing as a problem before we were in the middle of this you believe this nation has an epidemic of coughing yeah. [ laughter ] in the book i do call out a couple of moments that are like, oh i was flying a lot, you know, as a touring comedian and i say in the book, im like, look, i know the scientists are working on some big things weve got cancer weve got some Heart Disease but theres a coughing epidemic going on every flight im on, people are hacking up a lung.
