Larry, just kind of disappears into the night. Welcome to the nightly show. Im larry wilmore. Cosmo c. E. O. Joanna coles joins us tonight. cheers and applause very excited about that. Well, the latest news in the circus that is the republican nomination for president is that there may not be a clear winner, and this fight might go all the way to the convention. Trump has not yet sealed the republican nomination, raising the spector of a brokered convention. Brokered convention. , yes. Larry not to be confused with a broker convention, when a bunch of Real Estate Agents go buck wild at a duluth doubletree. Do not get that confused, you guys. But what is a brokered convention . Heres rapper 2 chainz to help us understand in another installment of 2 chainz explainz. hiphop sting and singing 2 chainz explainz. Hi, im 2 chainz. A brokered Convention Goes down when no single candidate has the 1237 delegates needed to win the republican nomination. Now, if this happens, the Convention Goes ham. laughter they release all the delegates and they make you vote again. They dont care who you voted for the first time around. Now thats gangster right there. laughter if the delegates vote again and no one gets that top spot, they just keep voting and voting and voting until they reach 1237 delegates. Even though a brokered convention hasnt happened in 64 years, if it ever happens, its going to be a hot mess. In 1924 delegates at the Democratic Convention had to vote 103 times before they picked the nominee. 103 times aint nobody got time for that applause so, you know me, i got a thug life, one wife, a mistress and a girlfriend. Larry truuuuuue this has been 2 chainz explainz. cheers and applause hiphop sting and singing larry okay. Now for our top story. In d. C. Yesterday, all eyes turned to the highest court in the land and im not talking about the daytime judge show rasta court. gavel pounding youre free to go, mon larry technically, that is the highest court. You know, in 15 years, ive never seen anyone punished. The High Court Im talking about is it u. S. Supreme court. Despite republican threats to block anyone he chose, obama nominated a replacement for the allegedly nonmurdered justice antonin scalia. Today, im nominating chief judge Merrick Brian Garland to join the Supreme Court. Larry hold on. Did he say Merrick Garland . Dont get me wrong, Merrick Garlands a good name for a judge, but its a great name for so many other things. For instance, Merrick Garland, a sexy bayou vampire in an anne rice novel. Or how about Merrick Garland, an old Country Estate outside of atlanta that was probably built by slaves . Or Merrick Garland, an evil oil tycoon from an 80s prime time soap opera . Whats that, ghost scalia . The kind of evil oil tycoon who could smother a Supreme Court justice with a pillow at a texas ranch . What . justice scalia, your sleep number is. Eternity. Ha ha ha ha ha applause i dont know why were staying on that story. Excuse me . One of americas finest justices doesnt deserve justice . Now, Merrick Garland is an eminently qualified justice. So qualified that, last week, republican senator orrin hatch held garland up as an ideal bipartisan choice calling the justice a fine man before adding that obama probably wouldnt pick him because hes too moderate, and back in 2010, hatch called garland a consensus nominee. Well, g. O. P. , obama picked the moderate, so does that mean Senate Majority leader and oldage mutant ninja turtle Mitch Mcconnell will relent in his blockade against an obama nominee . No, it does not. According to his spokesperson, mcconnell called garland today to let him know, since the senate will not be acting on this nomination, he would not be holding a perfunctory meeting, but me but he wished judge garland well. Larry called him . Mcconnell broke up with him over the phone . as mcconnell hi, ms. Garland. Uh, is merrick home . Hey, merrick. This is mitch. Hows it going . Yeah, me, too. Look, i dont think ill be able to see ya. Well, i just got out of a long relationship with another justice. Yeah, i do think it was murder. No, they never found the pillow. Look, merrick, its not you. Its me. Im just kind of a petty asshole. Gotta go cheers and applause okay, congress, can i talk to you for a minute . Look, guys, right now both sides are in a stupid political fight over one of the most important positions in all the land. Yeah, the democrats started it with the bork nomination, biden said some bull bleep 20 years ago, the republicans held obamas Circuit Court nominations hostage forever probably because he tried to block alito, who, by the way, still made it on theo the court but it doesnt matter. Both sides are acting like children. You know what . Can we stop this and you just do your bleep job . cheers and applause i mean, think about it. Why do you think the Approval Rating for congress is at 13 . Because of crap like this. applause its true subway jared has a higher Approval Rating than that. Google it. Its true. No, its not i just made it up. All right, ill tell you what you guys are supposed to be the leaders of america. Were supposed to follow you, right . Youre not doing your job . Okay. Well, im not going to do my job. Im just going to sit here and not do my job. laughter im not gonna do my job. laughter guys, if you laugh, technically, im doing my job. laughter okay, how does the candy come down . Dre hey, larry. Larry hey, dre. Whats up . Dre larry, the brass at Comedy Central called. They said you have to do your job. Larry awww. Wait, are you sure about that . Dre positive.

Some 23 1 2 million americans nationwide including 6 1 2 million children currently living in food deserts. Larry okay, so what is a food desert, really . For more, we turn to our resident food snob Jordan Carlos or as i like to call him, foody mchipsterton. cheers and applause jordan thank you, larry. Yes, apparently, a food desert is not what i originally thought an extra dry white wine served with melba toast. Oh, yes, theres practically a good desert in my mouth larry you really are a foody mchipsterton. So what is a food desert . Jordan great question. I went out to find that out for myself. Welcome to my journey ser virginicervecli . When did you get this in. I live in brooklyn where the finer things in life are only a step away. Food to me isnt just nourishment, its a way of life. So when i heard about a socalled food desert i knew i had to find out more about it. A food desert is a neighborhood where people have very little access to a supermarket or a Large Grocery store. Are you saying a large number of people in america dont live near a Grocery Store . 80 of those food deserts are in city areas where people live further than one mile from a Grocery Store that sells fresh fruits and vegetables. Jordan its the ageold question if the Grocery Store wont come to you, why dont you just hop in your prius and go to laughter im sorry, is there something funny . Food deserts are not in neighborhoods where people have prius or mercedes or jordan okay, volvos. Foresters. These are neighborhoods with primarily lowincome people. Jordan these people, you were saying this is not a real desert. This is really a metaphor, okay . You need to go to camden, new jersey. I challenge you to find an heirloom tomato. Jordan challenge accepted. Okay. Jordan wheres my prius . I accepted esters challenge and set off to camden to find the heirloom to mato. Where wheres your organic section in do you have any farmtotable or freerange eggs . Where would that area be . I guess ill keep poking around. People thought that poor people didnt want to eat Healthy Foods and turns out thats actually not true, its just not there. Maybe this is a little desertesque. Has it been a mile yet . Damn it, i forgot my fit bit sugar ricereal, sugary sugar. Wheres the food . Hey, i was noticing theres like a lot of sugary snacks. Im looking for the organic food. No. Why dont you have organic food . Convenience store is closer, doesnt mean you have everything. Jordan why is cake mix more convenient than Fresh Produce . I challenge you to find an heirloom tomato in camden, new jersey. Jordan theyre all processed this is cheese is neither loyal sourced nor. This its made with robot parts. I dont know what this is you know what . These kinds of diets produce for people . You have high rates of diabetes and high rates of obesity because you have to fill yourself up with cheap stuff and all that is empty calories and fattening so wheres the tomato now . No applause in the United States, we have 13. 6 Million People living in food deserts. Oh oh ah. Im fine jordan ester challenged me to walk a mile in someone elses shoes but i had to walk five times that far just to get Fresh Produce above all else, i put you inside me mmm mmm oh, god, yes but enough talk, time to lie in glory with my heirloom goddess. Mmm, mmm, ahhh is that the snans got it. Im just getting the one. cheers and applause larry thank you jordan to learn more about food deserts and how you can help, check out hunger free america for research, donation and volunteer opportunities, or look up your local antihunger groups online.

First up, the nightly show contributor mike yard. cheers and applause the nightly show contributor robin thede. cheers and applause and shes the editorinchief of cosmopolitan. Joanna coles. cheers and applause and for everyone at home join our conversation right now on twitter nightlyshow using tonightly. Okay, so earlier this week, i remember watching this, after hillarys big primary win, morning joes Joe Scarborough tweeted smile. You just had a big night. Women werent too happy, and he was bombarded with a slew of responses including this daily news headline, calling him out as sexist. My question is why do you think this struck such a chord . Its the oldest form to have street harassment to women. Any woman knows what its like walking from n front of a construction site and its like, cheer up, love smile this was not his finest moment. I have seen him in pajamas. I know this was not his finest moment. laughter heres the thing, what do we want from hillary . We dont want a smiler in chief, we want a president. Correct. cheers and applause no ones going to tell bernie to smile. That would be frightening. I love bernie, but larry well. Its like if somebody cold like he has every right not to be smart. Larry did it strike you any way . For me, and weve got to keep it a hundred, thats what we do on this show, as a man, i always go a hundred. Whatever. At the risk of being public enemy number one. Larry speak your mind, man. I dont get this one. I dont get this one. To tell you the truth, if i watched that and she wasnt smiling, i probably would have thought the same thing. I wouldnt have tweeted it but i thought bleep youre almost president bleep be happy if im a stones throw away from the presidency, im break dancing, im coming in with a barrel roll, im high fiving people with my feet, larry, thats how excited i would be. Larry my advice is not throw that stone. Im glad you didnt tweet. Larry yeah. laughter but a serious point is actually tuesday night was really hillary actually the sort of official idea shes going to get the nomination. Larry shes stepping into inevitability right now. Absolutely. And so what she was doing was taking it seriously because it is really a serious election and i think that was it. She didnt want to smile and make light of it. This is a serious moment. Shed won every single state. Bernie was nowhere to be seen, and she was moving it forward, and you saw her giving basically what was a general election speech. Larry its usually called president ial. Right. applause i want to say, hillary cannot do anything right. No woman has trodden this path before. No one has been in the white house as the wife, then senator, secretary of state and still called inexperienced. And what you want is her experience. applause larry absolutely. I dont get the whole shouting thing, too, where they keep saying they want hillary to stop shouting. There you got me. Im with you. Im with you on that one. Larry i dont get it youre speaking to 10,000 people or something. Trump shouts like frickin mussolini at every event. applause bernie always shouts. Bernie shouts because he cant hear himself. applause i think bernie shouts no one ever tells the queen to small or margaret thatcher. They just wanted her to do the job. Larry he was the iron lady. She was and people were terrified of her. Theres a strange thing in america where people want to sort of hang out with the president. People would say with george bush, hes the guy i want to have a beard with. I have news for you, hes the president and hes never going to have a beer with crowvment why do you want to like them . You need to have them do a good job. Larry guaranteed, hes not the designated driver if im having a beer with him. Guaranteed. If i have a beer with the president , i want you to be doing your job all the time. Stop drinking and do your job. If trump gets nominated, were all going to be drinking. Larry let me ask you this question, i know were running out of time, but as editorinchief, you face, im sure, many obstacles in the workplace. Are there any particular problems that a woman who leads faces . Well, the really interesting thing is all the Research Shows all the Research Shows that success in a woman equals unlikability, and thats just a real problem for our culture at large. And if you have a male politician and he goes back to his constituents and says this is what ive done, ive passed this bill, done this and this, people are thrilled. If a female politicians tells her constituents, this is what ive done, got this bill passed, made this progress, people think shes bragging and its such a big cultural leap for women. Still, you see it reflected in the numbers. 20 senate seats held by women, 18 in congress, 3 of fortune 500 companies. You just think, when are we going to get a break . When are we going to be able to embrace power and men be okay with it . And women, too. cheers and applause i dont know these men you talk about. I dont know these men that you talk about. Im sorry. I cannot i dont know these guys that are threatened by a woman with a good job. Maybe that is true. Im not and have never been a woman, but im only attracted to women who are way more powerful than me. So i dont get that. Larry i will introduce you to the United States of america. Well be right back cheers and applause if you live in the new york city area or planning to visit, grab free tickets to the nightly show, go to the then what makes thermacare different .
