How Long Gone, Super Tuesday. The sun is shining, it's beautiful outside, Jason.

It's giving a little bit summer in New York, so people are very excited, obviously, as you can imagine.

Jason Stewart (0:29)

Summer's back, baby, summer's here.

Chris Black (0:31)

Summer's back. There's too much going on right now, I would say.

My TL is cooked. I got Dan Levy crying about Shane Gillis. I got Hillary and Kara Swisher starting a podcast. I got Paul McCartney going on fucking Amy Poehler. I mean, where does it end, Jason? When do we get a break?

Jason Stewart (0:55)

Don't forget about Queen Selma.

Chris Black (0:57)

I can't forget about my getting a little bite from Selma on Delta One. Getting a little bite. If you're into that.

Jason Stewart (1:04)

I'm getting a little bite. Yeah. I didn't know.

Chris Black (1:06)

Let me get a bite.

Jason Stewart (1:07)

Selma Blair, one of the original munches, she's been biting. People are coming out of the Word Works and saying that she's a person who bites other people. This is a trend of hers.

Chris Black (1:17)

I think we need to once again, we need to listen to the victims and hear the victims.

Jason Stewart (1:22)

I don't know about multiple sclerosis and how it affects people. I did not know that it makes people gets to chomp in.

Chris Black (1:28)

I think she also hates, I think she's also racist is what they're saying, but I haven't seen the evidence of all of this stuff necessarily. I don't follow her career that closely. I do follow her on Instagram. But congratulations.

Jason Stewart (1:40)

Do you really?

Chris Black (1:41)

Yeah, I love Selma Blair. She's hot. Congratulations to friend of the show Druski.

He's being mislabeled in a way that I don't personally appreciate, Jason. And I think that we've got to stop calling everyone a creator or a content creator.

Jason Stewart (2:00)

Digital creator? Is that what they called him?

Chris Black (2:02)

They've called him several things in different houses. Druski's hosting Saturday Night Live on November 7th, which is what the streets have been asking for since he's doing skits, much like they do. So it does make sense.

Jason Stewart (2:12)

But let's see if he's able to do it with that red light, that live, we were talking about that last episode, when that red light comes on live TV. Is Drew gonna fuck it up? Let's go to Polymarket for the results.

Chris Black (2:23)

Well, he did, well, he hosted the ESPYs. Wasn't the best thing I've seen, but that's an award show. That's different. You know, it's a different, it's a different atmosphere, especially when a roomful of athletes that can whip your ass. When he's with all those fucking dorks who waited in line to go to Saturday Night Live and some, you know, some of Squirms friends that live in Bed-Stuy, he might feel a little more confident, confident on the, on the mic.

Jason Stewart (2:44)

Yeah, Squirms friend's not gonna, not gonna slide tackle anyone.

Chris Black (2:47)

No, no.

Jason Stewart (2:48)

So I saw somebody else point out that like other people, you know, I guess the headline we saw like Druski's the first digital creator to host SNL. And then people are pointing out, you know, Issa Rae hosted a while ago. And like, you know, are they digital creator? Is she a digital creator or is she, you know, like the, the because of streaming, you know, is HBO Max Go Plus a TV network? Or is that a digital media platform? Or is, are they just comedians or?

Chris Black (3:19)

Maybe she was doing shit on YouTube that I don't know about, but.

Jason Stewart (3:22)

I'm sure she was, I'm sure she was.

Chris Black (3:24)

She is famous from an HBO television show. Let's not, she's not posting self-funded, insane sketches on Twitter.

Jason Stewart (3:31)

Also, Shane Gillis, he, he has rose to fame being a digital creator.

Quil Lemons (3:36)

Technically. You know, he's a podcaster.

Chris Black (3:37)

Dude, I was just listening to fucking brilliant idiots and they were talking about, they played a clip of Chris Rock talking about how, how being a comedian is the hardest job and he's being dead serious because he's like, Jay-Z can play reasonable doubt and people love it. I can't do, I can't do my old shit. I'm like, dude, you, you sound like an idiot. Being a comedian is not hard.

I mean, it's, it's maybe it's, it is hard, I guess, but I'm saying like, compare yourself. He didn't, he didn't make any caveats. I'm like, what about doctors, bro? What are you talking about? Like, what do we mean here? Are you saying in entertainment? Because I still would say, I don't know about that.
