What did Jimmy Kimmel say last night?

What did Jimmy Kimmel say last night?

In an 18-minute monologue, Jimmy Kimmel addressed his recent suspension, expressing gratitude to those who supported him and defending his right to free speech. He thanked his late-night peers, conservative figures, and international hosts for their support.

Kimmel clarified that his previous controversial comments were not intended to make light of a serious incident. He criticized the FCC's stance on regulating media content, citing concerns over potential government overreach.

Kimmel concluded with a humorous bit featuring Robert De Niro, playing a fictional FCC chairman, highlighting the absurdity of media regulation.

Also reactions from Stephen Colbert, Jimmy Fallon, and Joe Rogan, all supporting free speech in comedy. 

This is a bonus episode.  The normal episode went out earlier this morning.  There will be another bonus at noon today with Jason Zinoman from the New York Times.

00:00:03.160 --> 00:00:09.400
Callaroga Shark Media.

2
00:00:10.119 --> 00:00:12.279
Hey, I'm Johnny Mac. Let's get right to it. Jimmy

3
00:00:12.359 --> 00:00:16.399
Kimmel kicked off an eighteen minute monologue with this homage

4
00:00:16.440 --> 00:00:19.039
to Jack Parr, which I explained to you in a

5
00:00:19.120 --> 00:00:20.280
bonus episode yesterday.

6
00:00:22.000 --> 00:00:22.600
That was good.

7
00:00:22.800 --> 00:00:23.199
Thank you.

8
00:00:24.800 --> 00:00:30.160
Anyway, as I was saying before I was interrupted, if

9
00:00:30.199 --> 00:00:32.920
you're just joining us, we are preempting your regularly scheduled

10
00:00:33.039 --> 00:00:35.759
encore episode of Celebrity Family Feud to bring you this

11
00:00:36.439 --> 00:00:37.479
special report.

12
00:00:37.840 --> 00:00:49.560
I'm happy to be here tonight with you. Yet you

13
00:00:49.719 --> 00:00:50.159
say it.

14
00:00:52.000 --> 00:00:54.719
I'm not sure who had a weirder forty eight hours,

15
00:00:54.799 --> 00:00:56.520
me or the CEO of Thailand Hall.

16
00:00:58.920 --> 00:01:00.920
It's been overwhelming. I've heard from a lot.

17
00:01:00.799 --> 00:01:03.359
Of people over the last six days. I've heard from

18
00:01:03.880 --> 00:01:06.680
all the people in the world over the last six days.

19
00:01:06.719 --> 00:01:09.359
Everyone I have ever met has reached out ten or

20
00:01:09.400 --> 00:01:13.680
eleven times. Weird characters from my past are the guy

21
00:01:13.719 --> 00:01:16.799
who fired me from my first radio job in Seattle,

22
00:01:17.519 --> 00:01:20.560
where we are not airing tonight, by the way, sorry Seattle.

23
00:01:21.120 --> 00:01:22.280
His name is Larry.

24
00:01:22.319 --> 00:01:25.040
In nineteen eighty nine, Larry tried to force me to

25
00:01:25.040 --> 00:01:28.120
do a bit called Jokes for Donuts, where people would

26
00:01:28.120 --> 00:01:30.599
call in with a joke and I would give them donuts.

27
00:01:30.840 --> 00:01:32.959
I refused to do it, and I made a lot

28
00:01:33.000 --> 00:01:36.000
of fun of Larry for suggesting it, and eventually Larry

29
00:01:36.040 --> 00:01:37.799
fired me and I had to move back in with

30
00:01:37.879 --> 00:01:41.159
my parents. But even he wrote in to cheer me up.

31
00:01:41.239 --> 00:01:43.480
Thank you, Larry, and I want to thank everyone who

32
00:01:43.560 --> 00:01:43.959
checked in.

33
00:01:44.480 --> 00:01:48.120
I would say all he fill of them, but.

34
00:01:49.840 --> 00:01:52.599
Some that I do especially want to mention are my

35
00:01:52.680 --> 00:01:54.319
fellow late night talked show hosts.

36
00:01:54.560 --> 00:01:56.439
My friend Stephen Colbert.

37
00:01:59.040 --> 00:02:03.319
Here's himself in this predicament, my friend John Stewart, Seth Myers,

38
00:02:03.400 --> 00:02:10.599
Jimmy Fallon, John Oliver, Conan, O'Brien, James Corden, Our Sineo, Kathy, Janda, Chelsea,

39
00:02:10.719 --> 00:02:14.039
even Jay reached out. I heard from late night hosts

40
00:02:14.080 --> 00:02:17.520
in other countries, from Ireland and from Germany.

41
00:02:17.599 --> 00:02:19.520
The guy in Germany offered me a job.

42
00:02:19.759 --> 00:02:24.599
Can you imagine this country has become so authoritarian? The

43
00:02:24.680 --> 00:02:31.039
Germans are like, come here, come, who's my boyhood? Idols

44
00:02:31.039 --> 00:02:33.000
Howard Stern and David Letterman were.

45
00:02:33.240 --> 00:02:36.840
Very considered time and I feel.

46
00:02:36.639 --> 00:02:39.039
Honored to be part of a group of people that

47
00:02:39.199 --> 00:02:41.360
knows what goes into doing a show like this.

48
00:02:41.439 --> 00:02:43.599
And I also want to thank all of you for a.

49
00:02:43.599 --> 00:02:45.759
Lot of these clips. I'm scoping them down to cut

50
00:02:45.759 --> 00:02:50.159
down on audience applause. Jimmy then got more serious. He

51
00:02:50.280 --> 00:02:53.120
thanked his audience, but then thanked these folks.

52
00:02:53.840 --> 00:02:56.520
Maybe most of all, I want to thank the people

53
00:02:56.560 --> 00:02:59.439
who don't support my show and what I believe, but

54
00:02:59.520 --> 00:03:05.639
support I write to share those beliefs. Anyway, he's old,

55
00:03:06.280 --> 00:03:07.479
he's there, or I never would.

56
00:03:07.479 --> 00:03:09.080
I'll imagine.

57
00:03:10.199 --> 00:03:14.319
Like Ben Shapiro, Clay Travis, Candice Owens, Mitch McConnell, Ran Paul,

58
00:03:14.680 --> 00:03:18.639
even my old pal Ted Cruz, who believe it or not,

59
00:03:18.879 --> 00:03:19.960
said something.

60
00:03:19.840 --> 00:03:21.639
Very beautiful on my behalf.

61
00:03:22.039 --> 00:03:25.680
I hate what Jimmy Kimmel said. I am thrilled that

62
00:03:25.800 --> 00:03:26.680
he was fired.

63
00:03:28.000 --> 00:03:31.680
Oh wait, no, not that the other part.

64
00:03:31.919 --> 00:03:34.599
But let me tell you, if the government gets in

65
00:03:34.639 --> 00:03:38.120
the business of saying what you the media have said,

66
00:03:39.000 --> 00:03:41.960
we're going to ban you from the airwaves if you

67
00:03:42.080 --> 00:03:46.360
don't say what we like, that will end up bad

68
00:03:46.520 --> 00:03:47.479
for conservatives.

69
00:03:47.599 --> 00:03:49.520
I don't think I've ever said this before, but Ted

70
00:03:49.599 --> 00:03:52.479
Cruz is right. He's absolutely right.

71
00:03:53.639 --> 00:03:57.120
That's a fuss, all of us, including him.

72
00:03:57.280 --> 00:03:58.199
I mean, think about it.

73
00:03:58.520 --> 00:04:01.479
If Ted Cruz can't speak really, then he can't cast

74
00:04:01.520 --> 00:04:06.400
spells on the Smurfs. Even though I don't agree with

75
00:04:06.560 --> 00:04:09.520
many of those people on most subjects, some of the.

76
00:04:09.439 --> 00:04:11.479
Things they say even make me want to throw up.

77
00:04:11.560 --> 00:04:14.960
It takes courage for them to speak out against this administration,

78
00:04:15.080 --> 00:04:16.839
and they did, and they deserve credit for it.

79
00:04:17.120 --> 00:04:20.839
And then for telling your followers.

80
00:04:21.360 --> 00:04:25.480
That our government cannot be allowed to control what we

81
00:04:25.560 --> 00:04:28.519
do and do not say on television, and that we

82
00:04:28.600 --> 00:04:29.639
have to stand up to it.

83
00:04:29.879 --> 00:04:33.560
Jimmy Kimmel then spoke about the comments that kicked off

84
00:04:33.759 --> 00:04:36.560
this Kurf fluffle, and he gets pretty choked up here,

85
00:04:36.560 --> 00:04:39.480
and I got pretty choked up watching Jimmy Kimmel get

86
00:04:39.560 --> 00:04:40.120
choked up.

87
00:04:40.639 --> 00:04:42.519
I've been hearing a lot about what I need to

88
00:04:42.560 --> 00:04:45.560
say and do tonight, and the truth is, I don't

89
00:04:45.600 --> 00:04:47.120
think what I have to say is going to make

90
00:04:47.160 --> 00:04:47.879
much of a difference.

91
00:04:47.920 --> 00:04:49.360
If you like me, you like me. If you don't,

92
00:04:49.399 --> 00:04:49.759
you don't.

93
00:04:49.800 --> 00:04:52.560
I have no illusions about changing anyone's mind, but I

94
00:04:52.600 --> 00:04:54.519
do want to make something clear because it's important to

95
00:04:54.560 --> 00:04:57.800
me as a human, and that is you understand that

96
00:04:57.879 --> 00:05:01.600
it was never my intention to make the murder of

97
00:05:01.639 --> 00:05:04.120
a young man I don't.

98
00:05:08.199 --> 00:05:10.040
Think there's anything funny about it.

99
00:05:10.560 --> 00:05:13.240
I posted a message on Instagram on the daves killed,

100
00:05:13.240 --> 00:05:16.240
sending love to his family and asking for compassion, and

101
00:05:16.279 --> 00:05:16.800
I meant it.

102
00:05:16.959 --> 00:05:17.680
I still do.

103
00:05:18.399 --> 00:05:21.240
Nor was it my intention to blame any specific group

104
00:05:21.319 --> 00:05:24.519
for the actions of what it was obviously a deeply

105
00:05:24.560 --> 00:05:28.120
disturbed individual that was really the opposite of the.

106
00:05:28.040 --> 00:05:29.240
Point I was trying to make.

107
00:05:29.240 --> 00:05:31.519
But I understand that to some that felt either ill

108
00:05:31.560 --> 00:05:34.560
timed or unclear, or maybe both. And for those who

109
00:05:34.560 --> 00:05:38.199
think I did point a finger, I get why you're upset.

110
00:05:38.240 --> 00:05:41.000
If the situation was reversed, there's a good chance I'd

111
00:05:41.000 --> 00:05:43.480
have felt the same way. I have many friends and

112
00:05:43.600 --> 00:05:46.439
family members on the other side who I love and

113
00:05:46.920 --> 00:05:50.560
remain close to, even though we don't agree on politics

114
00:05:50.600 --> 00:05:53.319
at all. I don't think the murderer who shot Charlie

115
00:05:53.399 --> 00:05:57.079
Kirk represents anyone. This was a sick person who believed

116
00:05:57.160 --> 00:06:00.360
violence was a solution and it isn't it.

117
00:06:00.959 --> 00:06:08.560
Ever, And also selfishly I am I am a person

118
00:06:08.600 --> 00:06:10.399
who gets a lot of threats.

119
00:06:10.439 --> 00:06:12.839
I get many ugly and scary threats against my life,

120
00:06:13.000 --> 00:06:15.279
my wife, my kids, my co workers because of what

121
00:06:15.360 --> 00:06:17.920
I choose to say, and I know those threats don't

122
00:06:17.959 --> 00:06:20.120
come from the kind of people on the right who

123
00:06:20.160 --> 00:06:20.879
I know and love.

124
00:06:21.000 --> 00:06:23.560
So that's what I wanted to say on that subject.

125
00:06:23.560 --> 00:06:25.519
But I don't want to make this about me because

126
00:06:25.560 --> 00:06:27.680
and I know this is what people say when they

127
00:06:27.759 --> 00:06:28.639
make things about them.

128
00:06:28.680 --> 00:06:32.439
But I really don't know this show. This show is

129
00:06:32.519 --> 00:06:33.480
not important.

130
00:06:33.600 --> 00:06:36.000
What is important is that we get to live in

131
00:06:36.040 --> 00:06:38.639
a country that allows us to have a show like this.

132
00:06:39.000 --> 00:06:39.240
Yeah.

133
00:06:40.800 --> 00:06:43.600
Jimmy then got very serious about the FCC.

134
00:06:43.959 --> 00:06:47.279
Should the government be allowed to regulate which podcasts the

135
00:06:47.360 --> 00:06:50.319
cell phone companies and Wi Fi providers are allowed to

136
00:06:50.399 --> 00:06:53.360
let you download, to make sure they serve the public interest.

137
00:06:53.800 --> 00:06:57.959
You think that sounds crazy? Ten years ago this sounded crazy,

138
00:06:58.240 --> 00:07:02.079
Brendan Carr, the chairman of the FCC, telling an American company,

139
00:07:02.279 --> 00:07:04.319
we can do this the easy way or the hard way,

140
00:07:04.720 --> 00:07:08.240
and that these companies can find ways to change conduct

141
00:07:08.680 --> 00:07:12.720
and take action on Kimmel or there's going to be additional.

142
00:07:12.120 --> 00:07:14.319
Work for the FCC ahead.

143
00:07:14.480 --> 00:07:19.000
In addition to being a direct violation of the First Amendment,

144
00:07:19.480 --> 00:07:22.759
is not a particularly intelligent threat to make in public.

145
00:07:23.199 --> 00:07:26.680
Ted Cruz said he sounded like a mafioso.

146
00:07:26.199 --> 00:07:29.519
Ahead of Jimmy Kimmel's return. The President of the United

147
00:07:29.600 --> 00:07:32.839
States went on social media and boasted, I can't believe ABC,

148
00:07:32.959 --> 00:07:35.360
fake news gave Jimmy Kimmel's job back. The White House

149
00:07:35.439 --> 00:07:37.920
was told by ABC that a show was canceled exclamation

150
00:07:37.959 --> 00:07:40.800
point something happened between then and now because his audience

151
00:07:40.879 --> 00:07:43.560
is gone all caps and his talent was never there.

152
00:07:43.959 --> 00:07:46.000
Why would they want someone back who does so poorly,

153
00:07:46.040 --> 00:07:48.199
who's not funny, and who puts the network in jeopardy

154
00:07:48.240 --> 00:07:52.079
by playing ninety nine percent positive Democrat garbage and all caps.

155
00:07:52.639 --> 00:07:55.279
He's yet another arm of the DNC into the best

156
00:07:55.279 --> 00:07:58.920
of my knowledge, that would be a major illegal campaign contribution.

157
00:07:59.839 --> 00:08:02.120
I think we're going to test ABC out on this.

158
00:08:02.519 --> 00:08:05.560
Let's see how we do. Last time I went after them,

159
00:08:05.720 --> 00:08:09.079
they gave me sixteen million dollars. This one sounds even

160
00:08:09.120 --> 00:08:12.399
more lucrative. A true bunch of losers. Let Jimmy Kimmel

161
00:08:12.519 --> 00:08:16.040
rot in his bad ratings. I think we're going to

162
00:08:16.079 --> 00:08:17.920
test ABC out on this. Let's see how we do.

163
00:08:18.040 --> 00:08:20.040
Last time I went after them, they gave me sixteen

164
00:08:20.040 --> 00:08:24.160
million dollars. Is that a shakedown? Sounds like it could

165
00:08:24.240 --> 00:08:29.120
be possibly, maybe perhaps a shakedown. Stephen Colbert briefly addressed

166
00:08:29.240 --> 00:08:32.039
the return of Jimmy Kimmel. I have edited this for pacing.

167
00:08:32.720 --> 00:08:33.600
I's gonna start off.

168
00:08:33.639 --> 00:08:35.519
You know, I'm so grateful to have this show.

169
00:08:35.759 --> 00:08:36.559
I'm gonna say.

170
00:08:36.399 --> 00:08:41.360
Thanks to everybody in here and to everybody watching from home,

171
00:08:41.559 --> 00:08:44.600
who I think might just be my wife Evvy, because

172
00:08:46.240 --> 00:08:50.200
everybody else probably watching ABC because tonight Jimmy Kimmel returned

173
00:08:50.200 --> 00:08:50.879
to the airway.

174
00:08:53.399 --> 00:08:53.559
Hi.

175
00:08:53.600 --> 00:08:56.159
Well, I'm glad Tim's back. He is a wonderful fella.

176
00:08:56.559 --> 00:09:00.120
To know him well is to admire him immensely, and

177
00:09:00.120 --> 00:09:01.360
if he takes the whole summer off.

178
00:09:02.840 --> 00:09:06.440
Jimmy Fallon even more briefly addressed the return of Jimmy

179
00:09:06.480 --> 00:09:07.360
Kimmel and if.

180
00:09:07.279 --> 00:09:09.080
You're tuning in to see what I'll say about my

181
00:09:09.120 --> 00:09:11.639
suspension the last couple of days, again, you're watching the

182
00:09:11.679 --> 00:09:15.559
wrong Jimmy Dad, the other Jimmy Dad.

183
00:09:16.559 --> 00:09:19.679
And Joe Rogan finally wait in on all this, Welcome

184
00:09:19.679 --> 00:09:22.799
to the party pal. On the Joe Rogan Experience on Tuesday,

185
00:09:22.919 --> 00:09:25.559
Joe Rogan said, I definitely don't think that the government

186
00:09:25.559 --> 00:09:28.039
should be involved ever in dictating what a comedian can

187
00:09:28.120 --> 00:09:31.240
or cannot say. In a monologue, Rogan called Kimmel a

188
00:09:31.279 --> 00:09:33.440
good guy, a smart guy, and a funny guy. And

189
00:09:33.559 --> 00:09:36.360
Rogan said, these companies if they're being pressured by the government, So,

190
00:09:36.360 --> 00:09:38.000
if that's real, and if people on the right are

191
00:09:38.039 --> 00:09:40.600
like you, go get him. Oh my god, you're crazy.

192
00:09:40.639 --> 00:09:42.879
You're crazy for supporting this because this will be used

193
00:09:42.919 --> 00:09:45.960
on you. You don't think the bleeping globalist lizard people

194
00:09:45.960 --> 00:09:47.679
who are in the world are sitting here going great,

195
00:09:47.720 --> 00:09:49.639
what do we got three years? We'll wait this out,

196
00:09:49.679 --> 00:09:51.519
We'll wait this out. Yeah, yeah, let them say the

197
00:09:51.519 --> 00:09:55.519
government should be involved in censoring people's speech. Well, Joe Rogan, Uh,

198
00:09:55.919 --> 00:09:58.360
to answer your question, the companies, if they're being pressured

199
00:09:58.360 --> 00:10:01.759
by the government, if that's real. The President of the

200
00:10:01.799 --> 00:10:04.840
United States put out on social media. Last time I

201
00:10:04.879 --> 00:10:07.000
went after them, they gave me sixteen million dollars. This

202
00:10:07.039 --> 00:10:11.519
one sounds even more lucrative. You tell me, Joe. Jimmy Kimmel,

203
00:10:11.600 --> 00:10:15.360
in his eighteen minute monologue, addressed were there conditions on

204
00:10:15.399 --> 00:10:16.559
your return? Jimmy Kimmel.

205
00:10:16.879 --> 00:10:20.279
People have been asking me if there are conditions for

206
00:10:20.440 --> 00:10:23.399
my return to the air, and there is one. Disney

207
00:10:23.399 --> 00:10:27.519
has asked me to read the following statement, and I

208
00:10:28.039 --> 00:10:28.879
agreed to do it.

209
00:10:29.279 --> 00:10:34.440
Here we go to reactivate your Disney Plus.

210
00:10:34.120 --> 00:10:39.679
And Hudo account, open.

211
00:10:42.879 --> 00:10:45.960
Open the Disney Plus app on your Smart TV or

212
00:10:46.000 --> 00:10:47.279
TV connected device.

213
00:10:48.720 --> 00:10:50.399
Jimmy then thanked ABC.

214
00:10:53.559 --> 00:10:55.039
Fortunate to work.

215
00:10:54.759 --> 00:10:57.399
At a company that has allowed me to do the

216
00:10:57.440 --> 00:10:59.399
show the way we want to do it. For almost

217
00:10:59.440 --> 00:11:03.039
twenty three years, I've done almost four thousand shows on ABC,

218
00:11:03.159 --> 00:11:05.759
and over that time, the people who run this network

219
00:11:05.799 --> 00:11:08.519
have allowed me to evolve and to stretch the boundaries

220
00:11:08.799 --> 00:11:12.039
of what was once traditional for a late night talk show,

221
00:11:12.320 --> 00:11:15.559
even when it made them uncomfortable, which I do a

222
00:11:15.600 --> 00:11:19.279
lot every night. They've defended my right to poke fun

223
00:11:19.399 --> 00:11:21.960
at our leaders and to advocate for subjects that I

224
00:11:22.000 --> 00:11:24.919
think are important by allowing me to use their platform,

225
00:11:25.279 --> 00:11:28.320
and I am very grateful for that. With that said,

226
00:11:29.240 --> 00:11:31.559
I was not happy when they pulled me off the

227
00:11:31.600 --> 00:11:34.919
air on once. I did not agree with that decision,

228
00:11:34.960 --> 00:11:37.679
and I told them that and we had many conversations.

229
00:11:38.000 --> 00:11:40.480
I shared my point of view, they shared theirs. We

230
00:11:40.639 --> 00:11:43.240
talked it through and at the end, even though they

231
00:11:43.360 --> 00:11:44.919
didn't have to, they really.

232
00:11:44.639 --> 00:11:46.879
Didn't have to. This is a giant company.

233
00:11:47.200 --> 00:11:50.559
We have short attention spans and I am a tiny

234
00:11:50.639 --> 00:11:54.120
part of the Disney Corporation. They welcomed me back on

235
00:11:54.200 --> 00:11:55.720
the air, and I thank them for that.

236
00:11:57.279 --> 00:11:59.559
And in a really good bit, the new head of

237
00:11:59.559 --> 00:12:02.639
the FC see played by Robert de Niro in character,

238
00:12:03.679 --> 00:12:05.879
he explained how things are gonna work from now on

239
00:12:05.919 --> 00:12:08.639
to Jimmy Kimmel, I have made a few edits here

240
00:12:08.679 --> 00:12:09.240
for pacing.

241
00:12:09.440 --> 00:12:10.960
Pardon me for saying so.

242
00:12:11.200 --> 00:12:12.559
Maybe you're the wrong guy to talk to you, but

243
00:12:12.639 --> 00:12:15.639
it seems like the FCC is using mob tactics to

244
00:12:15.840 --> 00:12:17.399
suppress free speech.

245
00:12:18.440 --> 00:12:22.840
What did you just say to me? I didn't mean

246
00:12:22.879 --> 00:12:23.600
any offensive.

247
00:12:23.919 --> 00:12:26.600
You know, you can't curse or we'll get fined by

248
00:12:26.600 --> 00:12:27.360
the FCC.

249
00:12:28.200 --> 00:12:29.600
I am the FCC.

250
00:12:29.879 --> 00:12:32.200
I can say whatever I want.

251
00:12:32.840 --> 00:12:36.200
No, well, this does it sounds a little like threats

252
00:12:36.240 --> 00:12:37.519
and intimidation to me.

253
00:12:37.759 --> 00:12:43.440
Gairman, stop that's look, it's just me, Jimmy, the chairman

254
00:12:43.480 --> 00:12:47.480
of the FCC, gently suggesting that you gently shove the

255
00:12:47.559 --> 00:12:48.039
fuck up.

256
00:12:49.440 --> 00:12:52.919
But you can't say that that's a violation of free speech.

257
00:12:53.720 --> 00:12:56.240
Oh yeah about that speech.

258
00:12:56.399 --> 00:13:00.720
It ain't free no more, right, it's a free no more. Yeah.

259
00:13:00.799 --> 00:13:01.840
We charge you by the word.

260
00:13:01.919 --> 00:13:05.519
Now you're charging by the word. How much are you charging?

261
00:13:06.039 --> 00:13:07.639
It depends on what you want to say, Like you

262
00:13:07.639 --> 00:13:10.039
want to say something nice about the president's beautiful, thick

263
00:13:10.120 --> 00:13:12.159
yellow hair or how he can do his makeup better

264
00:13:12.200 --> 00:13:14.279
than any broad that's free.

265
00:13:15.399 --> 00:13:21.080
Right, all right, I feel very vulnerable.

266
00:13:21.919 --> 00:13:23.879
But if you want to do a joke like he's

267
00:13:23.879 --> 00:13:27.240
so fatty he needs two seats on the Epstein jet, that's.

268
00:13:27.000 --> 00:13:31.039
The far Welcome back to Jimmy Kimmel, all right on

a great way with Jason Zennaman from the New York Times.

271
00:13:38.840 --> 00:13:41.279

273
