Trevor: LET’S KICK CAN IT

OFF WITH SUBWAY, THE MOST

POPULAR PLACE TO EAT AFTER

LOSING A CUSTODY BATTLE.

WHILE AMERICA MAY LOVE SUBWAY,

LOOKS LIKE SOME OTHER COUNTRIES

ARE HAVING A HARD TIME

SWALLOWING IT.

SUBWAY ONE OF THE MOST

RECOGNIZABLE SANDWICH SHOPS WAS

TOLD IT’S NOT EVEN SERVING

BREAD, AT LEAST ACCORDING TO

IRELAND IRELAND SUPREME COURT.

THE SUPREME COURT SAID THE

SANDWICHES LIKE THE MEATBALL SUB

DOESN’T HAVE BREAD BECAUSE IT’S

COO SUGAR RI.

IRELAND AWRVES A ZERO TAX RATE

FOR CERTAIN FOODS LIKE REGULAR

BREAD IF IT MEETS CERTAIN

REQUIREMENTS.

Trevor: ARE YOU SERIOUS?

ACCORDING TO IRELAND’S SUPREME

COURT, SUBWAY BREAD IS NOT

ACTUALLY BREAD BECAUSE IT’S TOO

SUGARRY AND I AM WILLING TO BET

SUBWAY IS HAPPY TO HAVE THIS BE

THEIR BIG CONTROVERSY.

YEP, OUR BREAD IS TOO SWEET.

THAT’S THE SCANDAL YOU SHOULD

THINK ABOUT WHEN YOU THINK

ABSUBWAY.

MAKE IT THE SOP SEARCH RESULT

FOR SUBWAY SCANDAL.

WE DESERVE IT!

SWEET BREAD!

THAT’S OUR THING!

SHOWS YOU IRELAND AND AMERICA

ARE DEALING WITH VERY DIFFERENT

ISSUES RIGHT NOW.

AMERICA’S SUPREME COURT IS ON

THE BRINK OF STRIKING DOWN

HEALTHCARE AND ABORTION RIGHTS

AND IRELAND SUPREME COURT IS,

LIKE, THIS BREAD, IT’S A WEE BIT

SWEET.

I’LL HAVE TO LOOK INTO IT.

DID I MIX THE FLOUR WITH THE

SUGAR?

THREE CUPS OF SUGAR AS OPPOSED

TO FLOUR?

DON’T KNOW ABOUT THAT.

MOVING ON TO NEWS FROM THE

ANIMAL KINGDOM.

IF YOU ARE BRINGING KIDS TO THE

ZOO, YOU MAY NEED TO COVER THEIR

EARS AT THE THE PARROT EXHIBIT.

FOUL MOUTHED PARROTS AT THE

ZOO BIG IN TROUBLE FOR SWEARING

AT PEOPLE.

FIVE AFRICAN PARROTS WERE

DONATED TO THE LINCOLN WILDLIFE

PARK IN THE SAME WEEK.

THE BIRDS QUARANTINED TOGETHER

BUT STAFF SAID THE PARENTS WERE

SWEARING AND CUSSING AT EACH

OTHER AND VISITORS WHO STARRED

CUSSING BACK.

THE ZOO REMOVED THE PAR LOTS

ROTS FROM PUBLIC VIEW.

Trevor: THIS IS SO UNFAIR.

PARROTS JUST REPEAT WHAT THEY

HEAR, SO IF THEY’RE CURSING,

IT’S NOT THEIR FAULT.

IT’S THE ZOOKEEPER’S FAULT FOR

LETTING THEM WATCH THE

PRESIDENTIAL DEBATE.

BY THE WAY, WE HEAR THE PARROTS

CURSING BECAUSE THEY CAN LEARN

ENGLISH.

YOU REALIZE OTHER ANIMALS ARE

CURSING ALL THE TIME, TOO,

RIGHT?

THEY’RE ALL LOCKED IN PRISON.

THAT’S WHAT A ZOO IS, AND THEY

DIDN’T EVEN CHIT CRIMES.

EVERY TIME YOU HEAR A LION ROAR,

IT’S ANOTHER ONE GOING I WANT MY

(~BLEEP~)!

IT’S THE CIRCLE OF LIFE!

WHY IS THE ZOO REMOVING THE

PARROTS?

ARE YOU INSANE?

THIS SOUNDS BY FAR LIKE THE BEST

ZOO YOU CAN GO INTO.

YOU KNOW WHERE I CAN SEE A BIRD

THAT DOESN’T CURSE?

LITERALLY ANYWHERE.

I GET YOU WANT TO SHIELD THE

CHILDREN FROM IT, MAKE IT AN

ADULTS PART OF THE ZOO.

DO YOU REMEMBER PRESIDENT OBAMA,

YEAH, IS NICE GUY AMERICA WAS

WITH BEFORE SHE GOT CATFISHED?

WELL FOR PEOPLE WHO MISSED THE

44th PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED

STATES, HERE’S A WAY YOU CAN

KEEP A LITTLE PIECE OF HIM WITH

YOU AT ALL TIMES.

RARE ITEMS THAT BELONG TO

BRACK AND MICHELLE OBAMA ARE

GOING ON THE AUCTION BLOCK.

THE PRESIDENT’S NUMBER 23 HIGH

SCHOOL BASKETBALL GURSY AND THE

SCHOOL’S 179 YEAR BOOK ARE

EXPECTED TO FETCH UP TO

$200,000.

ALSO FOR SALE A VINTAGE BLACK

COCKTAIL DRESS MICHELLE OBAMA

WORE TO A CHARITY FUND RAISER IN

2010.

THIS IS BELIEVED TO BE THE ONLY

GOWN OF HEARSE EVER TO BE

OFFERED IN AN AUCTION.

IT IS EXPECTED TO SELL FOR UP TO

$70,000.

THE SEPARATE AUCTIONS TAKE PLACE

IN DECEMBER.

THE AUCTION HOUSE SAYS THE

OBAMAS DID NOT PUT THE ITEMS UP

FOR SALE.

Trevor: DOES THIS NO SEEM

SHADY?

AN AUCTION OF OBAMA MEMORY

PEELIA BUT THE OBAMAS WERE NOT

INVOLVED?

DOES OBAMA EVEN KNOW ABOUT THIS?

ARE THEY, LIKE -- AND THE NEXT

ITEM UP FOR BIDDING, BARACK

OBAMA’S WALLET.

AND HE’S WATCHING AT HOME LIKE,

WHAT THE HELL?

FOR REAL, I THINK IT’S PRETTY

BALLSY SELLING OBAMA’S STUFF

WITHOUT HIS PERMISSION.

THE MAN HAS DRONED PEOPLE FOR

LESS.

YOU ARE TAKING CHANCES.

SOME OF THE ITEMS DOESN’T MAKE

SENSE.

WHY DOES ANYBODY WANT OBAMA’S

OLD BASKETBALL JERSEY.

HE WASN’T IN THE N.B.A.

LIKE PAYING THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS

FOR LeBRON’S HISTORY TEST.

THAT’S NOT WHY HE’S FAMOUS.

BUT HAVING OBAMA’S YEAR BOOK

MIGHT BE COOL.

IT MIGHT BE A NICE CHANGE OF

PACE TO LOOK THROUGH A

PRESIDENT’S YEAR BOOK FOR FUN

INSTEAD OF EVIDENCE.

PEOPLE ARE WILLING TO PAY BIG

MONEY FOR THIS KIND OF STUFF AND

IF A YEAR BOOK AND OLD CLOTHES

WILL SELL FOR $200,000, MAN, THE

OBAMAS SHOULD JUST JUMP IN.

THEY SHOULD HAVE A YARD SALE,

THEY’D MAKE A KILLING.

BARACK SHOULD BE OUT IN THE

YARD, THIS CORD HAS BEEN IN THE

FAMILY SINCE 2007 AND I’M ONLY

ASKING $0,000 FOR IT.

IT WORKS BUT YOU HAVE TO WIGGLE

THE THING AND IT STARTS

CHARGING.

SOMETIMES IT SHOCKS, BUT THAT’S

LIFE.

MOVING ON TO COVID 19.

THE VIRUS HARDER TO GET RID OF

THAN A Facebook ACCOUNT.

EVERY DAY, WE’RE LEARNING MORE

AND MORE ABOUT THE VIRUS AND WHO

IS MOST AT RISK.

AND WE ALL KNOW ABOUT THE

ELDERLY AND PEOPLE WITH HEALTH

CONDITIONS.

BUT NOW THERE’S A NEW RISK

FACTOR YOU PROBABLY HADN’T

THOUGHT OF.

SCIENTISTS SAY PEOPLE WHO

INHERITED GENES IN NEANDERTHAL

ANCESTORS MAY BE MORE ACCEPTABLE

TO A SEVERE CASE OF COVID 19.

EUROPEAN STUDY LINKS A HIGH RISK

OF HOP ZIGS AND RESPIRATORY

FAILURE TO A CLUSTER OF GENES

ASSOCIATED WITH THE

NEANDERTHALS.

THOSE GENES ARE FOUND IN ABOUT

16% OF EUROPEAN POPULATION.

HALF THE POPULATION IN SOUTH

ASIA IS NOW NONEXISTENT IN

AFRICA AND EAST ASIA.

RESEARCHERS ARE NOT SURE WHY THE

CORONAVIRUS IS IMPACTING THESE

GENE TIDES AND SAY MORE STUDIES

ARE NECESSARY.

Trevor: YO, YO, YO, THAT IS

CRAZY.

PEOPLE WITH NEANDERTHAL GENES

ARE MORE LIKELY TO BE AFFECTED

BY CORONAVIRUS?

HONESTLY, THIS IS KIND OF

EMBARRASSING BECAUSE, NOW, IF

YOU GET COVID, ITS YOUR GREAT,

GREAT, GREAT ANCESTOR SMASHED A

CAVE MAN.

HOW COULD YOU, NANA?

IT WAS A DIFFERENT TIME BACK

THEN.

HE HAD FIRE.

I WAS COLD.

HE ASKED ME TO COME OVER FOR

CAVE ART AND CHILL.

SHEHE WAS SO SWEET.

THIS WAS SURPRISING TO ME.

I DIDN’T KNOW EUROPEANS HAD

NEANDERTHAL GENES.

THIS IS GREAT NEWS FOR AFRICANS

BECAUSE THEY HAVE NONE.

SOME ’TUDE IS WALK AROUND UGANDA

SAYING, OOOH, WHO ARE THE

SAVAGES NOW?

HERE’S LOOKING AT YOU!

YOU’RE PROBABLY WONDERING

WHETHER YOU HAVE NEANDERTHAL

GENES.

THERE’S AN EASY WAY TO TELL.

IF THERE’S A GUY BEHIND YOU THAT

LOOKS LIKE A MONKEY AND ONE IN

FRONT OF YOU THAT LOOKS LIKE A

HUMAN THEN YOU, MY FRIEND, ARE A

NEANDERTHAL.

IT’S SCIENCE.

I DON’T MAKE THE RULES.

WHILE THERE’S A LOT TO LEARN

ABOUT THIS DISEASE, THERE ARE

THINGS SCIENTISTS ARE SURE ABOUT

WASHING YOUR HANDS HELPS AND

DON’T SPEND A LOT OF TIME IN

UNSANITARY ENCLOSED SPACES WITH

LOTS OF OTHER PEOPLE.

UNFORTUNATELY, SOME PEOPLE DON’T

LIKE LISTENING TO SCIENTISTS.

THE WHITE HOUSE BLOCKED A NEW

ORDER FROM THE C.D.C. TO KEEP

CRUISE SHIPS DOCKED TILL MID

FEBRUARY.

THE SHIPS WILL BE ALLOWED TO

SALE AFTER OCTOBER 31.

THE C.D.C. SAY THERE HAVE BEEN

RECENT OUTBREAKS OF THE VIRUS ON

CRUISE SHIPS OVERSEAS SAYING

CRUISES CONTINUE TO HELP SPREAD

THE VIRUS EVEN WHEN SHIPS SAIL

AT REDUCED CAPACITY.

ACCORDING TO AXIOS, PUBLIC

HEALTH OFFICIALS PRIVATELY

COMPLAINED THE THWARTING OF THE

CRUISE SHIP BAN IS POLITICALLY

MOTIVATED BECAUSE THE INDUSTRY

IS BIG IN FLORIDA WHERE THE

ELECTION IS STATISTICALLY TIED.

Trevor: CORONA WILL BE

ROLLING AROUND THE SHIP LIKE JAY

Z IN A PIMPING VIDEO.

IT FEELS LIKE TRUMP IS TRYING TO

GET PEOPLE INFECTED.

CRUISES ARE LEGAL AGAIN AND FROM

NOW ON EVERYONE HAS TO COVER

THEIR SNEEZES WITH ANOTHER

PERSON’S MOUTH.

I DON’T CARE WHAT ANYBODY SAYS,

THIS IS CLEARLY A POLITICALLY

MOTIVATED DECISION BY DONALD

TRUMP BUT THERE MUST BE A SAFER

WAY FOR HIM TO WIN IS SUPPORT OF

FLORIDA VOTERS.

WHY NOT GIVE THE MEDAL OF HONOR

TO PIT BULL OR TAX CREDITS TO

ANYONE WITH EXPOSED ASS CHEEKS?

I DON’T UNDERSTAND WHY ANYONE

WANTS TO GO ON A CRUISE DURING

CORONA.

IT’S LIKE BOARDING THE TITANIC

KNOWING IT’S GOING TO SINK.

THE CAPTAIN, I’M GOING TO STEER

THIS INTO AN ICEBERG.

I DON’T CARE, I JUST WANT TO

MEET LEONARDO DICAPRIO.

CRUISE LINES ARE PLAYING CHESS

BECAUSE THEY KNOW CORONA CAN’T

HURT YOU IF FOOD POISONING FROM

THE SEAFOOD BUFFET KILLS YOU

FIRST.

DOESN’T MAKE SENSE FOR ANYBODY

LIVING IN AMERICA TO GET ON A

CRUISE SHIP NOW.

THIS COUNTRY HAS A CRAZY HIGH

INFECTION RATE.

WE’RE ALL OVEREATING, NOBODY’S

SLEEPING WELL AND WE’RE TRAPPED

IN OUR HOMES MOST OF THE DAY.

THIS IS A CRUISE, PEOPLE.

YOU’RE GETTING THE EXPERIENCE

FOR FREE.

FINALLY, POLITICAL NEWS -- AFTER

THE FIASCO THAT WAS THE FIRST

PRESIDENTIAL DEBATE, AMERICANS

EVERYWHERE SPOKE UP TO SAY,

PLEASE!

WE CANNOT GO THROUGH SOMETHING

LIKE THIS EVER AGAIN.

AND NOW THE COMMISSION THAT RUNS

THE DEBATES IS TAKING ACTION.

THE PRESIDENTIAL DEBATE

COMMISSION IS PROMISING RULE

CHANGES AFTER TUESDAY’S FACEOFF

IN CLEVELAND.

THIS COMES AMID THE FALLOUT FROM

THE FIRST MEETING BETWEEN

PRESIDENT TRUMP AND JOE BIDEN

THAT WAS FILLED WITH INSULTS AND

LOTS OF INTERRUPTIONS.

THOSE CHANGES COULD INCLUDE

TURNING OFF THE MICROPHONE OF

THE CANDIDATE NOT ANSWERING THE

QUESTION AND THEN GIVING THE

MODERATOR THE ABILITY TO MUTE

MICROPHONES AS NEEDED.

Trevor: OKAY, OKAY.

CUTTING OFF TRUMP’S MIKE MIGHT

BE A GOOD IDEA BUT THEY

SHOULDN’T HAVE TOLD HIM ABOUT IT

IN ADVANCE.

BECAUSE KNOWING TRUMP, NOW HE’S

JUST GOING TO BRING HIS OWN MIC

AND A PORTABLE SPEAKER LIKE

THOSE GUYS ON THE SUBWAY.

THIS NEXT QUESTION IS FOR JOE

BIDEN -- SHOW "TIME," FOLKS!

IT’S SHOW "TIME"!

SHOW "TIME"!

I DON’T KNOW IF THIS IS GOING TO

WORK BECAUSE EVEN WITHOUT A

MICROPHONE TRUMP CAN STILL FIND

A WAY TO BE A DISTRACTION

WITHOUT TALKING.

IN 2016 HE MADE THE RIDICULOUS

FACES.

HE LURKED IN THE BACKGROUND LIKE

A T REX IN A SUIT.

WHO COULD FORGET HIS

INTERPRETIVE RIBBON DANCING.

THIS MAN KNOWS HOW TO STEAL

FOCUS.

THEY SHOULD LIVE HIS MIC ON THE

SAME WAY THEY SHOULDN’T BAN HIS

TWITTER ACCOUNT.

I DON’T WANT ANYONE MAKING

DONALD TRUMP SEEM MORE SANE THAN

HE IS.

LET AMERICA SEE WHO DONALD TRUMP

IS.

OPEN THE MIC!

LOOK, WE’LL FIND OUT SOON WHAT

THE BIG CHANGES ARE GOING TO BE

BUT ONE OF THEM HAS ALREADY BEEN

ANNOUNCED AND I DON’T KNOW GUYS,

MAYBE IT’S BECAUSE WE MADE IT

BUT IT LOOKS VERY PROMISING.

THIS GUY --

THE PRESIDENTIAL DEBATE

COMMISSION HAS HEARD YOUR

CONCERNS ABOUT HOW THE LAST

PRESIDENTIAL DEBATE WENT.

FEWER INTERRUPTIONS.

I’M APPEALING TO YOU, SIR, TO DO

THAT.

WELL, AND HIM, TOO.

THAT’S WHY WE’VE MADE SMALL

TWEAKS TO THE PROCESS.

THE NEXT DEBATE WILL FEATURE

STRICTER TIME LIMITS, MORE

MODERATOR CONTROLS, AND THE

PRESIDENT WILL BE REQUIRED TO

WEAR A MUZZLE.

HE GOT THROWN OUT OF THE

MILITARY AND DIDN’T HAVE A JOB

UNTIL YOU BECAME VICE PRESIDENT.

THIS HAS 15 POUNDS OF

REINFORCED CONCRETE TO REDUCE

DISRUPTIVE INTERRUPTIONS.

WE’VE ALSO HEARD YOUR CONCERNS

ABOUT THE LACK OF FACT CHECKING

WHICH IS WHY THIS MUZZLE COMES

EQUIPPED WITH A SENSOR WHICH

RELEASES HELIUM GAS IF IT

DETECTS FALSEHOOD.

THIS IS GOING TO BE A FRAUD

LIKE YOU’VE NEVER SEEN.

AND WILL ACTIVATE A VOICE

FILTER THAT MAKES DONALD TRUMP SOUND MORE PRESIDENTIAL.

SOUND MORE PRESIDENTIAL.

IN MANY CASES RADICAL LEFT.

( OBAMA VOICE) THERE IS NOT A

LIBERAL AMERICA AND A

CONSERVATIVE AMERICA THERE IS A

UNITED STATES OF AMERICA!

THE PRESIDENTIAL DEBATE

MUZZLE, THE NEXT BEST THING TO

HAVING A NORMAL PRESIDENT

Trevor: WE HAVE TO TAKE A

QUICK BREAK.

WHEN WE COME BACK, RONNY CHIENG

WILL TRY ON THE SUIT THAT STOPS

CORONAVIRUS.

AND THEN MARIAH CAREY IS ON THE

SHOW. DON’T GO AWAY.

SHOW.

EVER SINCE THE CORONA PANDEMIC

BEGAN, WE’VE HEARD THAT LIFE

WON’T RETURN TO NORMAL UNTIL

THERE’S A VACCINE.

BUT THERE’S A NEW INVENTION THAT

NIGHT GET US BACK TO LIFE MUCH

SOONER, AND OUR VERY OWN RONNY

CHIENG WENT TO CHECK IT OUT

I NEVER THOUGHT I WOULD SAY

THIS BUT AFTER FIVE MONTHS OF

QUARANTINE I’M ACTUALLY STARTING

TO MISS SEEING PEOPLE AND GOING

PLACES.

I MISS GOING TO SANTA CON AND

OUR SUBWAY RIDES.

MY FIGHT CLUB AND OF COURSE MY

ILLEGAL STRIP CLUB.

I MISS EVERYTHING.

RECENTLY A TECH COMPANY IN

LOS ANGELES RELEASED A PLAN FOR

WHAT THEY THINK COULD SOLVE THIS

PROBLEM.

IT’S CALLED THE MICRASHELL

FUTURE SUIT.

I WANTED TO TALK TO THE GENIUS

SCIENTIST WHO DEVELOPED THIS

TECHNOLOGY.

AND, YES, HE’S ALSO A DEEJAY AND

’EM D.M. PRODUCER WHO WOULD ONLY

TALK TO ME IF I DRESSED COOL

IT HAS AN AIR TANK THAT GOES

THROUGH A HIGH EFFICIENCY FILTER

THAT PROVIDES A SAFE WAY OF

BREATHING

YOU MADE A BREATHABLE HEAD

CONDOM

YES.

THIS COULD BE GO TO A CONCERT.

THIS COULD BE GO TO A RACE.

YOUNG PEOPLE IS NOT CARINGT THAT

MUCH ABOUT SAFETY.

SO UNLESS YOU MAKE IT COOL,

NOBODY IS GOING TO WEAR IT.

FUN AND SEX APPEAL NEEDS TO BE

VERY IMPORTANT WITH OUR SAFETY

THIS IS LIKE P.P. EVIL

COACHELLA

EXACTLY

THIS IS PERFECT.

HAS SPEAKERS, A MICROPHONE TO

HELP YOU COMMUNICATE WITH

FRIENDS AND A LIGHTING SYSTEM TO

HELP YOU EXPRESS YOUR MOODS FROM

TOTALLY FADED TO LIT A. F.M.

THAT’S NOT ALL

YOU HAVE A CANISTER AND CAN

FILL IT WITH DRINK OR VAPE

SO YOU WANT TO BE ABLE TO

VAPE IN THIS THING?

YES

I DON’T EVEN VAPE BUT THAT

LOOKS COOL AS HELL.

THERE’S ANOTHER DISINE FEATURE.

THE SUIT ONLY COMES TO WAIST

LEVEL BUT WHY?

IT’S A SUIT THAT ALLOWS YOU

TO HAVE SEX

YOU’RE TELLING ME SOMEONE

WOULD WANT TO HAVE SEX WITH ME

IF I WEAR THAT SUIT?

I WOULD THINK A LOT OF PEOPLE

WOULD LIKE TO HAVE SEX WITH YOU

ONLY BECAUSE OF THIS SUIT

OKAY, SOLD.

BUT THERE IS ONE CONCERN, HOW

WOULD IT WORK FOR PEOPLE WHO ARE

TOO COOL TO GO TO E.D.M. RAVES?

WHERE ELSE CAN I WEAR THE SUIT,

YOGA?

YES

BLACK FRIDAY SALE

YES

A COVID PARTY

YES

A CAPPELLA GROUP PRACTICE?

WE SPIT A LOT

YOU COULD, YES

LIKE MY A CAPPELLA GROUP, THE

SUIT SOUNDED ALMOST TOO GOOD

( SINGING )

COULD THIS ACTUALLY WORK?

I HAD TO TRY FOR MYSELF AND SEE

IF PEOPLE ON THE STREETS OF

NEW YORK WOULD EMBRACE THIS

INNOVATION.

NO, I WOULD NOT.

NO.

NO.

I THINK THIS IS A HARD NO.

NO.

WHY NOT?

IT LOOKS STUPID.

IT’S NOT, LIKE, CUTE.

IT LOOKS STUPID.

WHAT ABOUT THIS MAKES YOU NOT

WANT TO DANCE IN IT?

YOUR FACE NOW THE.

IT’S PERFECTLY FINE.

I’M SURE IT IS.

YOU WOULD WEAR THIS?

YES.

GO SWIMMING IN THIS?

YES.

SEX IN THIS?

NO.

WOULD YOU HAVE SEX IN THIS

SUIT?

NO.

YEAH, PROBABLY NOT.

I’M MARRIED.

YEAH, BUTT IT MIGHT BE FUN.

( LAUGHTER )

I’LL FINALLY SETTLE DOWN AND

GET MARRIED SO WE’LL NOT HAVE TO

WEAR THE SUIT.

YOU WOULD RATHER GET MARRIED

THAN WEAR THE SUIT TO HAVE SEX.

YES.

THIS PROTECTS YOU AGAINST THE

VIRUS?

IS IT TOTALLY SAFE?

THAT’S A GREAT QUESTION AND I

PROBABLY SHOULD HAVE FOUND THAT

OUT BEFORE I PUT THIS ON.

I DECIDED TO TALK TO A SCIENCE

NERD WHO KNOWS EVERYTHING ABOUT

STUFF.

EPIDEMIOLOGIST SASKIA.

WHEN I FIRST SAW IT, I

THOUGHT IT WAS A HALLOWEEN

COSTUME.

IT’S BEING LABELED AS PERSONAL

PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT OR P.P.E.

AND THAT’S PRETTY MUCH

EVERYTHING IT’S NOT.

COULD YOU STATE YOUR

EDUCATION AND HOW MANY E.D.M.

CONCERTS YOU HAVE BEEN.

I HAVE A MASTERS IN HEALTH

AND INFECTIOUS EPIDEMIOLOGY, A

MASTERS IN NATIONAL SECURITY AND

POLICY AND A Ph.D. IN

ENVIRONMENTAL DEFENSE AND NOT

BEEN TO ANY E.D.M. CONCERTS.

SO YOU’RE NOT AN EXPERT IN

ANY OF THIS, REALLY.

ON PAPER IT’S AWESOME.

IT PROTECTS YOU AGAINST

CORONAVIRUS, YOU CAN DRINK IN

IT, IT HAS SPEAKERS AND YOU CAN

HAVE UNSAFE SEX SAFELY.

WHY ARE YOU HATING ON THIS?

THIS IS A GREAT EXAMPLE OF

BEING INNOVATIVE TO DO UNSAFE

THINGS LIKE A CONCERT.

BUT UNFORTUNATELY IT’S A FILTER

IT’S SAYING IS PROTECTING YOU

HASN’T BEEN APPROVED WHICH MEANS

YOU DON’T KNOW IF IT’S WORKING

EFFECTIVELY.

IF THE SUIT DOESN’T WORK, HOW

ARE WE SUPPOSED TO ENJOY LIVE

EVENTS?

WE NEED TO STAY HOME.

THE FASTER WE CAN GET NUMBERS TO

PROBLEM, HOPEFULLY THE THINGS

WILL BE NORMAL.

PROBABLY WON’T BE TILL 2021.

OR WE GET THESE FUNKY TRAN

SUITS AND PARTY NOW.

I DON’T THINK THAT’S GOING TO

HAPPEN.

SHE LEFT ME IN SERIOUS

DOUBTS.

IF THE SUIT MIGHT NOT PROTECT

ME, WAS IT EVEN WORTH GOING OUT

TO A CROWDED EVENT, LISTENING TO

TERRIBLE MUSIC AND INHALING

TOXIC CHEMICALS?

I WANTED MIGUEL’S REACTION.

IT’S GOOD TO BE CRUETICLE BUT

YOU NEED TO BE CRITICAL AND

CONSTRUCTIVE.

SO AT LEAST WE ARE TRYING TO

FIGURE OUT THE SITUATION RATHER

THAN JUST STAYING ON OUR COUCH WATCHING TV.

WATCHING TV.

IT’S AN AMBITIOUS PRODUCT.

I CAN SEE MY GROARMT WEARING

THIS.

I CAN’T BELIEVE YOU WOULD

WEAR IT TO PROTECT YOUR GRANDMA

AT LIVE EVENTS.

SHE’S PRETTY DOPE.

IS SHE AVAILABLE.

UH I CAN’T TELL YOU.

SEND ME HER PHOTO AND I WILL

CONSIDER YOUR OFFER.

I WILL THINK ABOUT THAT.

THE FUTURE SUIT ISN’T ABOUT

AIR FILTER CERTIFICATIONS,

EXHAUST FAN MECHANISMS AND

DISINFECTION PROCESSES, IT’S A

DREAM FOR A FUTURE IN WHICH

HUMANS CAN BE TOGETHER AS ONE

AGAIN LIVING OUR LIVES TO THE

FULLEST AND DOING THE THINGS WE

REALLY LOVE WITHOUT BEING

AFRAID.

( COUGHING )

Trevor: THANK YOU.

TIME FOR A SHORT BREAK.

WHEN WE COME BACK, I’LL SPEAK TO

THE WOMAN WHO BROUGHT US

CHRISTMAS.

MARIAH CAREY, PEOPLE. DON’T GO AWAY.

EARLIER TODAY, I SPOKE WITH THE

BEST-SELLING FEMALE ARTIST OF

ALL TIME, MARIAH CAREY.

WE TALKED ABOUT HER INCREDIBLE

CAREER, HER NEW MEMOIR, AND SO

MUCH MORE.

CHECK IT OUT.

MARIAH CAREY, WELCOME TO "THE

DAILY SOCIAL DISTANCING SHOW.

( LAUGHTER )

THANK YOU.

I’M GLAD TO BE HERE.

Trevor: I HAVE TO SAY,

GROWING UP AS ONE OF YOUR FANS,

I DID NOT THINK THAT ANYTHING

COULD MAKE ME A BIGGER FAN THAN

I ALREADY WAS, BUT YOUR MEMOIR

HAS -- THE BEST DESCRIPTION I

HEARD FROM A FRIEND SAID IT THE

BEST WAY, SHE SAID, IT TURNS YOU

FROM A FAN INTO AN INSTANT LAMB

BECAUSE WE’VE ALL GROWN UP WITH

MARIAH CAREY, MARIAH CAREY HAS

SUNG THE SOUND TRACK TO OUR

LIVES, WHETHER IT’S FALLING IN

LOVE, HAVING OUR HEARTS BROKEN,

CELEBRATING CHRISTMAS, YOU ARE

SYNONYMOUS WITH THE LIVES THAT

WE’VE LIVED, BUT YOU TAKE FOR

GRANTED THAT A LOT OF PEOPLE

DON’T KNOW YOU, AND YOU’VE

WRITTEN A BOOK NOW AFTER 30

YEARS IN THE INDUSTRY.

THE FIRST QUESTION IS WHY NOW?

WHY WOULD YOU BEAR SOMETHING SO

VULNERABLE AFTER ALL THESE YEARS

OF BEING SHIELDED?

WELL, FIRST OF ALL, I HAVE

BEEN WANTING TO WORK ON -- I

HAVE BEEN WORKING ON THIS BOOK

FOR THREE YEARS, YOU KNOW,

SOLIDLY FOR THREE YEARS, AND

PRIOR TO THAT, I WANTED TO START

WORKING ON IT WHEN I WAS

PREGNANT TEN YEARS AGO.

AT THE TIME I THOUGHT IT REALLY

HAPPENED THE WAY IT WAS SUPPOSED

TO HAPPEN.

I COLLABORATED WITH MIKALAH

ANGELA DAVIS WHO IS ONE OF MY

CLOSE FRIENDS AND I THINK WE GET

EACH OTHER ON A VERY SPECIFIC

LEVEL AND MANY LEVELS.

BUT IT JUST FELT LIKE THE RIGHT

TIME BECAUSE, YOU KNOW, IT IS,

IT IS HAPPENING BECAUSE IT’S

HAPPENING AND IT WAS MEANT TO

HAPPEN AND IT WAS A CATHARTIC

EXPERIENCE AND, AGAIN, THAT’S

WHY I TOOK SO LONG.

I WOULD HAVE LIKED TO HAVE MORE

TIME.

YOU KNOW, WHEN YOU’RE WORKING ON

SOMETHING, YOU WANT IT PERFECTED

AND YOU DON’T HAVE THE DEADLINES

AND THERE IT IS.

BUT THE AUDIO BOOK HAS BEEN MY

FAVORITE PART OF THE PROCESS,

WEAVING IN THE LYRICS AND THE

MELODIES AND STUFF LIKE THAT.

SO IT IS A VULNERABLE PLACE TO

BE BUT IN A WAY IT’S FREEING

BECAUSE THEY JUST REFER TO PAGE

123 OR WHATEVER.

YOU KNOW WHAT I MEAN.

Trevor: FOR MANY PEOPLE

WHEN THEY READ THIS BOOK,

THEY’RE GOING TO LEARN THINGS

ABOUT MARIAH CAREY THAT THEY

NEVER WOULD HAVE FATHOMED, YOU

KNOW, BECAUSE YOU POPPED INTO SO

MANY OF OUR LIVES AS THIS

PERFECTLY MAN CUED HUMAN BEING

WHERE EVERYTHING WAS IN PLACE

AND PERFECT IN THE MUSIC VIDEO,

BUT YOU’VE LIVED A TOUGH LIFE,

YOU’VE OVERCOME, YOU’VE DEFIED

THE ODDS AND ONE OF THE THINGS I

DON’T THINK A LOT OF PEOPLE

REALIZE ABOUT YOU IS YOU ARE A

MASTER AT YOUR CRAFT, NOT JUST

BUT SINGING, BUT 19 NUMBER ONE

HITS AND 18 OF THOSE WERE

WRITTEN BY YOURS TRULY.

YES, AND THANK YOU FOR

ACKNOWLEDGING THAT.

THAT’S BEEN A THING.

MY TRUE FANS KNOW THAT AND I

THINK THAT’S BEEN -- I KNOW

THAT’S BEEN WHY OUR CONNECTION

IS SO STRONG AND, YOU KNOW, THAT

AND OTHER REASONS, BECAUSE

THEY’RE RELATING TO THE WORDS

THAT ARE VERY PERSONAL, NOT

NECESSARILY THE BIG SONGS THAT

EVERYBODY -- THAT MOST PEOPLE

KNOW BUT LIKE THE DEEP CUTS AND

THE ONES THAT ARE FEATURED MORE

PROMINENTLY IN THE BOOK WHERE

THE LYRICS ARE WOVEN INTO THE

STORY OR YOU WILL GO, OH, THAT’S

WHAT THAT MEANT WHEN SHE WROTE

THAT.

YOU KNOW, SO THE FANS KNOW, BUT

THE CASUAL LISTENERS OR PEOPLE

THAT ARE JUST, LIKE, YEAH, I’VE

HEARD HER SING OR WHATEVER.

THEY DON’T KNOW, I DON’T KNOW

THAT THEY’LL EVER KNOW.

MAYBE IF THEY CARE TO KNOW AND

THEY’RE WATCHING THIS, THEY’LL

PAY ATTENTION IN A DIFFERENT

WAY.

BOP IT’S BEEN MY RELEASE.

SO WRITING THIS BOOK AND WORKING

ON THE AUDIO BOOK AND WEAVING

SINGING AND MUSIC IN WITH THE

STORIES, BECAUSE THAT’S THE WAY

IT’S WRITTEN, YOU KNOW, SO IT

WAS REALLY A GREAT CREATIVE

EXPERIENCE FOR ME TO BE ABLE TO

COMBINE THOSE THINGS I LOVE SO

MUCH.

OBVIOUSLY, WITH THESE VERY

PERSONAL STORIES.

Trevor: WHEN YOU LOOK AT

THE STORIES THAT YOU’VE SHARED,

THERE’S NO DENYING, MARIAH, THAT

THEY’RE SO PERSONAL, SOME OF

THEM ARE TRULY, TRULY, TRULY

HEARTBREAKING, AND I FELT ALMOST

GUILTY NOT KNOWING THIS ABYOU

AND CLAIMING TO BE A FAN, YOU

KNOW.

YOU READ THE STORIES AND YOU GO,

MAN, I DIDN’T KNOW MARIAH WAS

EXPERIENCING THIS.

YOU JUST KNOW MARIAH CAREY

THROUGH SONGS OR A MEME OR A

CHRISTMAS SHOW.

BUT WHEN WE GO BACK TO MARIAH

CAREY GROWING UP IN HER LIFE,

YOU MEET A YOUNG GIRL WHO IS IN

A WORLD WHERE SHE’S TOLD THAT

SHE DOESN’T BELONG.

SOME PEOPLE SAY THAT SHE IS NOT

BLACK ENOUGH, SOME PEOPLE SAY

SHE IS NOT WHITE AT ALL, AND,

SO, SHE EXPERIENCES RACISM

SPECIFICALLY GROWING UP AS A

CHILD.

ONE OF THE MOST PAINFUL STORY IS

WHERE YOU SHARE GOING TO A KIDS’

PARTY AND ALL THEY DID WAS LOCK

YOU UP IN A ROOM AND START

CALLING YOU THE N-WORD.

THAT TRAUMA, WHEN YOU WERE

SHARING IT, I WOULD LIKE TO KNOW

HOW DID YOU DEAL WITH THAT AND

HOW DUD YOU ALMOST, YOU KNOW,

PUT THAT IN THE BACK OF YOUR

MIND AND LIFE WHILE YOU WERE

ENTERTAINING THE REST OF US IN

THE WORLD?

WELL, IT IS ONE OF THOSE

THINGS THAT I REALLY DIDN’T

SPEAK ABOUT TO MOST PEOPLE

BECAUSE, IN CASUAL CONVERSATION

OR IN AN INTERVIEW FORMAT WHERE,

YOU KNOW, YOU’VE GOT TO GET TO A

LOT OF SUBJECTS AND YOU’RE

TALKING ABOUT AN ALBUM OR

WHATEVER, MOST LIKELY, I’M NOT

GOING TO DIG INTO MY 12-YEAR-OLD

PAST AND BE, LIKE, BY THE WAY,

LISTEN TO WHAT HAPPENED TO ME.

Trevor: RIGHT.

YOU KNOW WHAT I MEAN.

AND I DID PUSH THAT PARTICULAR

INCIDENT DOWN TO THE POINT

WHERE, WHEN WE WERE WORKING ON

THE BOOK, I DIDN’T EVEN WEB

REMEMBER THAT STORY UNTIL

FURTHER DOWN THE ROAD.

IT WASN’T LIKE LET ME TELL YOU

THIS FIRST STORY.

LIKE, I REALLY STARTED A LOT

WITH MY ANCESTORS AND KIND OF

EXPLORING DIFFERENT ASPECTS OF

WHAT THEY WENT THROUGH, AND THE

DIVERSITY THERE, THAT’S KIND OF

LIKE SHOCKING TO MOST PEOPLE

BECAUSE WHEN YOU SEE THE

PHYSICAL BOOK, THE PICTURES IN

THE BOOK, PEOPLE GET IT A LITTLE

BIT MORE, AND I KNOW YOU

UNDERSTAND WHAT I’M SAYING.

IT REALLY -- YOU KNOW, IT

BECOMES A THING WHERE IT’S,

LIKE, OH I GET IT NOW.

BUT YOU’RE, LIKE, WELL, WHAT THE

HELL DID YOU THINK I WAS TALKING

ABOUT THIS WHOLE TIME?

BUT, YOU KNOW, AGAIN, NOT

EVERYBODY PAYS ATTENTION.

BUT, YES, THAT WAS A VERY

HARROWING EXPERIENCE.

I DON’T KNOW THAT I EVER FELT

THE NEED TO TALK TO ANYBODY

ABOUT IT BECAUSE I DON’T FEEL

LIKE I’M THE ONLY PERSON IN THE

WORLD THAT EVER WENT THROUGH

SOMETHING TRUE MACK, BUT THAT

WAS VERY SPECIFIC, AND I THINK

THE REASON WHY MOST PEOPLE

WOULDN’T EXPECT IT IS BECAUSE, I

DON’T KNOW, BECAUSE TO HAVE THE

RACIAL AMBIGUITY, BECAUSE OF

WHATEVER.

BUT I DIDN’T ALWAYS HAVE MY HAIR

DONE AND MAKEUP AND CLOTHES AND

NICE THINGS, YOU KNOW.

I CAME FROM A PLACE WHERE I

LIVED IN PREDOMINANTLY WHITE

NEIGHBORHOODS WITH PEOPLE THAT

HAD NICE HOUSES AND I’M NOT EVEN

GOING TO SAY THEY WERE

PREDOMINANTLY WHITE, THEY WERE

ALL WHITE AND, YOU KNOW, THERE I WAS, TO MOST OF THEM, I HATE TO

WAS, TO MOST OF THEM, I HATE TO

USE THIS WORD, A MONGREL.

SO THEY DIDN’T HAVE A HIGH

OPINION OF ME FOR THAT REASON.

Trevor: THAT’S WHAT I THINK

MAKES THIS BOOK SO AMAZING, TO

BE HONEST, IS IT REALLY SHOWS US

MARIAH CAREY AS A HUMAN BEING.

I LAUGHED IN THE BOOK AND THERE

ARE MOMENTS WHERE I’M CRYING.

THERE ARE MOMENTS WHEN I WAS

SHOCKED AT HOW MUCH COMEDY YOU

HAVE IN YOUR LIFE.

YOU USE HUMOR TO DEAL WITH

REALLY SAD SITUATIONS.

I CAN RELATE TO THAT.

HAVE YOU BEEN HIDING MARIAH

CAREY THE COMEDIENNE FROM US?

IS THERE A BIG PART OF YOUR LIFE

THAT IS EITHER DEDICATED OR

SOOTHED BY LAUGHTER?

BECAUSE I FELT LIKE THAT IN THE

BOOK.

ABSOLUTELY, YES.

I DEFINITELY GO TO THE PLACE OF

HUMOR AS OPPOSED TO, LIKE, OH

I’M SO SAD, I’M CRYING AND

DEPRESSED.

YOU KNOW, THAT’S WHY LABELS ON

PEOPLE AND, YOU KNOW, OH, YOU’RE

THIS AND YOU’RE THAT, WHATEVER,

I DON’T -- IT’S HARD.

YOU KNOW THAT IT’S DIFFICULT.

I DON’T HAVE TO TELL YOU.

Trevor: RIGHT.

BUT, I JUST MEAN THAT -- HOW

DO I EXPRESS IT -- YEAH, I WOULD

RATHER LAUGH THAN CRY, AND, SO,

I APPRECIATE -- AND WE WERE

TALKING ABOUT SON OF PATRICIA

AND JUST YOU AS AN INCREDIBLE

COMEDIAN AND, YOU KNOW, SUCH A

BRILLIANT PERSON BUT, ALSO, I

APPRECIATE STANDUP AND I

APPRECIATE, LIKE, WATCHING YOU

AND THE COMPLEXITIES THAT, YOU

KNOW, I KNOW WE’RE SUPPOSED TO

BE TALKING ABOUT MY BOOK BUT I

HAVE TO SAY THAT OR I WOULD BE

REMISS.

Trevor: DON’T GO AWAY.

AFTER THE BREAK, WE’LL HAVE MORE WITH MARIAH CAREY.

HERE’S MORE OF MY INTERVIEW WITH

THE LEDGE DRY MARIAH CAREY.

IT FEELS LIKE WE’RE GETTING A

LOT OF MARIAH CAREY NOW.

WE’RE GETTING THE BOOK, THE

AUDIO BOOK AND THEN WE’RE

GETTING SOMETHING I THINK

EVERYBODY ON THE PLANET WILL BE

EXCITED BY AND THAT’S

"RARITIES," A COLLECTION OF

WHETHER IT’S UNRELEASED SONGS, B

SIDES AND JUST FEELS LIKE AN

EXTENSION OF THE BOOK BECAUSE IT

FEELS LIKE A RAW PIECE OF MARIAH

CAREY, YOU KNOW, MUSIC WE’VE

NEVER HEARD, EXPRESSION WE’VE

NEVER SEEN.

YOU’VE GOT AN EXCLUSIVE -- YOU

WILL TEAM UP WITH LAURYN HILL IN

ONE OF THE PROJECTS AND THAT IN

ITSELF IS LEGEND PLUS LEGEND IN

A TIME FOR PEOPLE PEOPLE WAS

GOLDEN.

TELL ME ABOUT "RARITIES" AND WHY

THIS WAS THE TIME TO PUT THAT

OUT AND WHAT YOU WERE TRYING TO

DO.

WELL, IT SO HAPPENED -- FIRST

OF ALL, THE SYNERGY WITH ALL OF

THIS HAS BEEN -- YOU KNOW, I

BELIEVE EVERYTHING HAPPENS FOR A

REASON, BUT IN THE BOOK, I TALK

ABOUT WINNING MY FIRST AWARD

WHEN I WAS 12, A LITTLE AWARD IN

A TALENT SHOW THAT MY MOTHER HAD

ENROLLED ME IN AGAINST ALL

ADULTS, AND I SANG THE SONG OUT

HERE ON MY OWN BY IRENE CARA.

WHEN I SANG IT AS A KID, I FELT

I WAS THERE ON MY OWN.

BUT WE FOUND THE RECORDING THAT

I HAD DONE.

I WAS GOING TO PUT IT ON AN

ALBUM, DIDN’T DO IT, AND I FOUND

IT IN MY VAULT.

THAT’S ON "THE RARITIES."

AND I HAD A SONG LULLABY

BIRDLAND, A SONG I SANG AS A

KID, AND WE FOUND IT ON THE

RECORDING AND THAT’S ON THE

"RARITIES."

BUT THE FACT THESE THINGS

HAPPENED AT THE SAME TIME IS

ANOTHER THING THAT BLOWS MY MIND

ABOUT LIFE.

Trevor: YOU’VE LIVED A

THOUSAND LIVES, MARIAH CAREY.

I THINK A LOT OF HUMAN BEINGS

WILL ENJOY THIS BOOK BECAUSE IT

IS A HUMAN STORY.

I THINK A LOT OF MOTHERS AND

DAUGHTERS WILL LOVE THIS BOOK

BECAUSE IT TALKS ABOUT THOSE

CONNECTIONS AND HOW IMPORTANT

THEY ARE, HOW MUCH THEY NEED TO

BE CHERISHED.

I THINK ANY CHILD, ANY PARENT, I

THINK ANY LOVER OF MUSIC, YOU

KNOW, ANY BLACK PERSON, ANY

PERSON WHO STRUGGLES WITH

IDENTITY REGARDLESS OF RACE WILL

LOVE THIS BOOK.

BEFORE I LET YOU GO, I MEAN, I

COULD TALK TO YOU FOREVER ON ALL

THESE THINGS BUT I GUESS THAT’S

WHY YOU HAVE THE BOOK.

BEFORE I LET YOU GO, I WOULD

LOVE TO TALK TO YOU ABOUT THE

SONG THAT HAS BECOME THE

DEFINITION OF CHRISTMAS.

IT’S PRETTY INSANE TO HAVE A

SONG THAT IS ALMOST AS FAMOUS AS

THE HOLIDAY ITSELF.

I REALLY WANTED THIS QUESTION AS

AN ENTERTAINER.

WE ALL HEAR THAT SONG, IT’S

CHRISTMASTIME.

DO YOU HEART AND SAY, OH, NO,

PEOPLE ARE GOING TO WANT ME TO

SING IT, OR DO YOU STILL HAVE AS

MUCH JOY FROM THAT SONG AS WE

HAVE?

YOU KNOW, IT’S INTERESTING

BECAUSE IT GETS PLAYED A LOT AND

THERE ARE ALL DIFFERENT THINGS,

BUT IT’S THE FIRST CHRISTMAS

SONG I EVER WROTE.

I TALK ABOUT IN THE BOOK HOW

CERTAIN PEOPLE IN MY FAMILY

RUINED CHRISTMAS EVERY YEAR AND

I ALWAYS LOOKED FORWARD TO IT

AND I ALWAYS JUST WANTED TO HAVE

THE MOST FESTIVE, FUN HOLIDAY,

AND IT JUST REPRESENTED SO MUCH

FOR ME, AND THEY ALWAYS SCREWED

IT UP.

AS AN ADULT, I WAS ALWAYS TRYING

TO RE-CREATE WHAT THAT

REPRESENTED.

SO TO HAVE A SONG THAT I DO GET

TO HEAR EVERY YEAR -- I HAVE

THREE CHRISTMAS ALBUMS --

Trevor: RIGHT.

I’M FESTIVE.

I PUSH THROUGH SADNESS WITH

BEING FESTIVE.

ANYBODY WHO EVER TRIES TO RUIN

CHRISTMAS FOR ME WILL NOT BE A

HAPPY PERSON HANGING OUT WITH ME

ON CHRISTMAS.

SO THE ANSWER IS I’M VERY

THANKFUL THAT I WAS ABLE TO

WRITE THIS SONG, AND I DO STILL

LOVE IT BECAUSE IT MAKES ME FEEL

LIKE THE HOLIDAYS ARE HERE AND

THAT’S MY FAVORITE TIME OF YEAR,

SO -- CALL ME FESTIVE.

( LAUGHTER )

Trevor: FESTIVE, MARIAH

CAREY.

THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR JOINING ME

ON THE SHOW.

I HOPE YOU WILL JOIN ME AGAIN.

I HOPE EVERYBODY READS THE BOOK

TO GET WHATEVER THEY NEED FROM

IT, WHETHER IS JOY OF HEARING

YOU BREAK DOWN YOUR MUSIC AS

MASTER CRAFTSMAN, OR SHARING

YOUR EXPERIENCE ALSO.

I FEEL IT’S A LOVE LETTER TO

BLACK WE BELIEVE IN ALL WALKS OF

LIFE, WHETHER PRIVATE OR THE

MUSIC INDUSTRY.

I FEEL IT’S A TOUCHING TALE AND

ONE OF THE MOST VULNERABLE,

BEAUTIFUL STORIES I’VE READ.

THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR SHARING

WITH US AND JOINING ME ON THE

SHOW.

THANK YOU SO MUCH, TREVOR.

I ADORE YOU AND I REALLY WOULD

LOVE TO COME BACK AND TALK TO

YOU AT ANYTIME, ANY COVID --

WHAT DO WE CALL THIS ONE?

Trevor: WHEN WE’RE NOT

SOCIALLY DISTANCED.

I AGREE.

YES, YES.

THANK YOU.

THANK YOU SO MUCH.

AND YOU’RE INCREDIBLE.

Trevor: THANK YOU VERY

MUCH.

THANK YOU AGAIN FOR THAT,

MARIAH.

WE’LL TAKE A QUICK BREAK, BUT WE’LL RIGHT BACK AFTER THIS.
