Hello, and welcome to the Pre-Cap, a Daily Show podcast where we sit down with this week's host to recap some of the latest news and preview what's coming up next. I'm Randall Otis, if you're a fan of the credit section of the show, a writer, and I'm joined today by our host this week, Michael Kosta.
Hi, I'm Michael Kosta, if you're a fan of the beginning part of the show. Yeah, mine's more fun. At least that's what my mom says. Do they still roll credits? I don't watch the show. I mean, I recently was watching a different show and I wanted to see who wrote on it, and I paused it, but I could never just time it right.
Oh, I just, I don't know, maybe they just assume everyone will Google it. That's what the credits say, just fucking Google it. Because I love a good credit. I like when there's stuff. I do miss, I was watching older, I was watching Honey, I Shrunk the Kids, and I remember, I'm like, oh, I miss blooper reels. That'd be very fun to bring back. Oh, did they do that? No, they stopped. I feel like they stopped in the mid-2000s.
I really like older movies, how they, I mean, really old movies, you haven't started the movie for five minutes. They're rolling the pre-credits directed by written.
I love that. Yeah.
As the characters like walking, like, I love that. Like show me all the people it takes to create art. I love that.
Yeah, and it's just like, just so you know, this isn't like a YouTube video. I worked hard on this.
A lot of motherfuckers were involved. There's six wardrobe consultants on this thing, yeah.
And we fired five. Yeah. But let's see, what's been happening this week?
What's been happening, yeah.
I guess technically the big thing was the State of the Union. Yeah. Did you watch? Did you watch live?
I did not watch live. I tried to and I got so frustrated at just what what is this? What are we listening to? The lies, the non news. And so I disengaged. And then I felt like, shit, I'm supposed I should be engaged. This is how we got here as a country. We're not paying attention.
Yes. I don't know. I feel multiple ways about it. I guess I feel like if I were a Democrat and some of them didn't.
Yeah.
But I wouldn't show up at all.
I wondered if if why there was even a Democrat contingency there. And then I read that like 14 did boycott.
But I feel like it's kind of the thing you're talking about where it's like, I feel as though I should.
What are the hosts' initial thoughts on the State of the Union address?
This is just what we do.
This is tradition.
But we live in a time where so many traditions and norms are just being thrown out the window that to adhere to them still feels really silly to me. I was like, why are you going to get yelled at for two hours? It feels very Dom Sub.
It's like, daddy, hit me. My biggest complaint of the Trump era is how people say, but we've never, he's doing a thing we've never done before. And I'm kind of like, we have to get over that. That's what he does. Like grow up. Yeah, grow up. So I agree with you. It's happened every year we've had this discussion of what is the State of the Union addressing and do we need it?
Well, I was I was listening to what's his name? Jamel Bowie, New York Times columnist. And he was talking about that, how we haven't done this forever.
