We go there, we get the cheapest flights. And if there's a delay, they should pay us. Okay, that's how it works. And if we crash in the ocean, yeah. And if we crash in the ocean, we need knives under our seats. Otherwise, we're just sitting there like chicken McNuggets for sharks.
Great, Congress is in charge of airlines. Next time I go home, I'm driving. Thanks, Ronnie. Ronnie Chang, everybody. We'll be right back.
With all this money Congress is sending overseas, you might be wondering, hey, when does Ronnie get a little taste of this, hmm? Yeah, when's the government gonna do a little something for me, hmm?
Okay, cash refunds. Yeah, that's something. Yeah, yeah. I'm always having airplane delays. Yeah, that is pretty good. I mean, but, you know, delays is only a small part of the problem. I mean, what if, you know, when, like, airlines make you change airports or they add connections and they're always just trying to screw you over.
I'm cautiously optimistic. It's good. It got my attention. It is pretty good. In fact, it feels a little too good to be true. But hey, I guess all I have to worry about now is losing my luggage and shitty Wi-Fi.
This is the greatest thing the government has ever done in history.
No, in history. In history. Jordan, the man is refunding you for Wi-Fi in the sky. That doesn't work. What more could you want?
Yeah, okay, we'll get into that. But thank you, Joe Biden. Thank you for making my life better. Now just bring back Roe v. Wade so I don't have to sit next to a crying baby on a red eye.
All right, all right. We get it. Enough already. Enough. I agree with you more than I agree with them.
Yeah. That's why... That's why I was so happy you came on, because people don't know by looking at us, but we actually have very similar backgrounds, because we both joined the show. I moved to America to do this show, just like you. And when I first joined the show, you know, the Daily Show alumni network is so strong, I asked to meet up with Mr. Oliver.
Mr. Oliver. Hold on. He was Mr. Oliver. I was like, there's no way this guy's going to let me meet up with him.
And that really, at the end of the day, that is the secret sauce. Well, that is the, I mean, you know, you have to really not care to do satire sometimes. And everyone's like, people, I don't think people know how much you don't give a f***. Yes. Like, you truly don't give a f***.
You said pushing the button.
You said there's a button, you just got to push it. Yeah, exactly. Because, I mean, you know, and what was interesting was when I met with you, this is how much you don't give a f***. You made me come to your office at 8 a.m., first of all, which is... Which is extremely early for comedians. Yeah.
Yeah, and I came and I talked to, and I have very specific questions. And one thing you told me, I've been using this in my podcast rounds. I don't know if it's come back to you, but like when you told me it took you two years to relearn how to do comedy in America.
You were spot on to the day, by the way. In hindsight, I was like, oh my god. Because I remember there was a day I was in New York City gigging at some comedy club. And it was two years in, literally almost to the day. And I remember things just starting to click a little bit of relearning how to do comedy. Because again, you, like me, we were doing comedy outside of America.
before we even came here.
Yeah, it's a bit like, you know, you can come here and you can joke about America on a very surface level. And that will do well for you if you have a 15-minute set, maybe 30-minute set. But I feel like after nine months or a year in America, the audience can kind of smell the bullshit of like, you've been here long enough. Yes. Right. Like, guns shouldn't be weird to you. That's right.
So really, how profound your two-year thing was. Like, it takes two years to learn the nuances of America so you can make fun of them in ways which... Yes, exactly. They appreciate.
Like, don't tell us we have guns. We know we have guns.
