>>> I NEED TO SAY, JASON, YOU A
SUCH A COPYCAT.
I GUESSED HOST, ALL OF A SUDDEN
YOU’RE GUEST HOSTING, LIKE,
MAYBE I SHOULD GO OUT AND GET MY
Ph.D. TO REMIND EVERYBODY ABOUT
IT EVERY 30 SECONDS TO HAVE A
Ph.D. IN POLITICAL SCIENCE.
FINE.
I WILL BE LIVE TROLLING, SORRY,
LIVE TWEETING AND SERIOUSLY,
CONGRATULATIONS MY FRIEND.
>> ONE OF MY FAVORITE SPARS
PARTNERS A "GAME OF THRONES"
SUPERFAN AND A NEW THRONE OF HER
OWN.
TIFFANY CROSS COMING TO YOU LIVE
EVERY SATURDAY IN THIS SAME TIME
SLOT STARTING NEXT WEEK.
OUR FRIEND JONATHAN CAPEHART
HOSTING HIS OWN PROGRAM ON
SUNDAYS AND I’LL TALK TO HIM
CORPORAL.
TIFFANY IS BACK WITH ME FOR A
PREVIEW OF HER NEW SHOW, HOW ARE
YOU THIS MORNING?
>> I’M SO EXCITED, JASON, AND
YOU KNOW THAT I’VE BEEN WATCHING
YOU HOST AND DO YOU SUCH AN
AMAZING JOB.
AND IT REALLY FEELS LIKE, I
THINK ONE OF THE BEST THINGS
ABOUT BEING ON-SCREEN WITH YOU,
SERIOUSLY IF THERE’S A CAMERA
THERE OR NOT YOU GET THE SAME
THING.
YOU AND I MEET FOR BREAKFAST
SOMETIMES AND I ASK YOU ONE
QUESTION ABOUT THE ELECTORAL
COLLEGE, TALK ABOUT AN HOUR.
THAT HAPPENS AT BRUNCH OR
ON-CAMERA ALL THE TIME.
SO I REALLY LOVE OUR
CONVERSATIONS AND I THINK THAT
LEVEL OF AUTHENTICITY MATTERS SO
MUCH TO VIEWERS RIGHT NOW.
SO DON’T GET TOO USED TO HAVING
YOUR SATURDAYS FREE.
YOU’LL BE ON WITH ME A LOT.
>> MY PLAN, SLEEP IN, AND
TIFFANY NOW SAID THAT’S NOT
GOING TO HAPPEN.
>> NOT GOING TO HAPPEN.
>> THIS WILL BE THE ONE TIME I’M
JUST GOING TO MONOLOGUE AND SAY
SOMETHING NICE.
IT DOES NOT -- I CANNOT
ADEQUATELY DESCRIBE.
I THINK THE PUBLIC NEEDS TO
UNDERSTAND THIS, HOW IMPORTANT
IT IS THAT YOUR VOICE IS GOING
TO BE HERE ON A REGULAR BASIS.
THAT YOU WILL JOIN THE PANTHEON
OF OTHERS AS A BLACK WOMAN WHO
WILL BE SPEAKING ABOUT OUR
ISSUES OF IMPORTANCE THAT
THERE’S A 9-YEAR-OLD AND A
12-YEAR-OLD AND 13-YEAR-OLD OR
14 YARD GIRL WATCHING YOU ON THE
SCREEN EVERY DAY AND YOU WILL BE
THEIR ROLE MODEL THE WAY "MURPHY
BROWN" WAS MAYBE 15, 20 YEARS
AGO TO YOU.
I WANT TO SAY THAT UP FRONT,
LOOKING FORWARD TO THIS.
PROUD OF YOU, I AM IMPRESSED.
THAT’S THE LAST NICE THING I
WILL SAY AND SO WE’LL BEGIN WITH
WHAT’S GOING TO HAPPEN ON THIS
NEW "TIFFANY CROSS SHOW."
WHAT THEY GET FROM YOU NO THAT
YOU’RE ROUNUNNING A WHOLE SHOW.
>> FIRST, I APPRECIATE THAT,
JASON.
EVERY TIME SOMEONE SAYS OTHER
BLACK AND BROWN GIRLS WILL LOOK
AT ME KNOWING THEY CAN DO THIS,
TOO, I HAVE TO CHOKE BACK TEARS
I REFUSE TO CRY ON TV, BUT THAT
MOVES ME THE MOST.
OBVIOUSLY DIFFERENT.
JOY BUILT UP AN AMAZING AUDIENCE
WITH HER PLATFORM.
I WOULDN’T BE HERE WITHOUT HER.
DEFINITELY HATS OFF AND KUDOS
AND IF I WERE GOING TO HAVE A
KID I WOULD NAME THE KID JOY.
BOY OR GIRL.
BUT, IN THE SHOW, IT IS GOING TO
BE DIFFERENT.
PEOPLE ARE GETTING JOY FIVE
NIGHTS A WEEK.
WHEN THEY TUNE IN ON SATURDAY, A
DIFFERENT EXPERIENCY.
FULLY ME AND THE VISION I CREATE
WITH THE TEAM.
YOU AND I TALKED A LOT, I THINK
ON A LOT OF CABLE TELEVISION
IT’S HAVEN’T INSULAR AS IF
EVERYBODY UNDERSTAND THE MINUTIA
OF GOVERNMENT.
THAT’S NOT TRUE.
SOME DON’T KNOW WHAT THE DNI
DOES OR DON’T KNOW WHAT THE GAME
OF EIGHT MEANS.
THAT’S PART OF JOURNALISM.
STOP AND EXPLAIN IT.
I WANT THIS SHOW TO BE
ACCESSIBLE FOR THE CORPORATE
CLIMBER WITH THE CORNER OFFICE
ON WALL STREET AND AS WELL AS
THE DUDE WHO’S CHECK CASHING
PEOPLE AT THE BANK ACCOUNT ON
THE CORNER.
WE KNOW THOSE PEOPLE.
THEY’RE PEOPLE IN OUR FAMILY,
PEOPLE WHO ARE FRIENDS AND I
WANT WERE EVERYONE TO FEEL
WELCOME AT THIS TABLE AND
UNDERSTAND WE’RE GOING TO BRING
PEOPLE ALONG.
ONE OF THE WAYS WEE SS WE’LL DO
SEGMENT CALLED "MAKE IT MAKE
SENSE."
YOU AND I TALK ABOUT THIS.
WE WANT VIEW TOERGS FEEL A PART
OF THE SHOW AND VIEWERS CAN SEND
VIDEOS AND ASK THEIR HOT,
BURNING POLITICAL QUESTIONS.
I WILL ANSWER THEM OR SOMETIMES
OTHER PEOPLE WILL ANSWER THEM.
SUBJECT MATTER.
VERY MUCH INCLUDED.
ALSO WE’LL DO SOMETHING, "WHO
GOT NEXT," ON THE COURT ON AT
THE TABLE.
JUST WANT, WHO GOT NEXT?
HIGHLIGHTING YOUNG PEOPLE.
DON’T NECESSARILY HAVE TO BE
YOUNG BUT TRAILBLAZERS ACROSS
THE COUNTRY DOING SOMETHING
INNOVATIVE.
COULD BE AROUND POLITICS OR
CREATING THE GREATER GOOD OF
SOCIETY.
THEY’LL BE LOTS OF AWESOME
SEGMENTS INCLUDING WHAT’S
TRENDING’S REACTING IN REALTIME
WHAT’S TRENDING ON TWITTER EVERY
TIME I HOST.
PARTICULARLY WHEN YOU AND I ARE
ON A LOT OF CHATTER ON TWITTER.
SO, YEAH.
I’LL HAVE A PANEL WHERE WE CAN
ACT IN REALTIME TO THOSE THINGS,
REACT.
ABOVE ALL OUR FRANCHISE SEGMENT
THEY WILL GET NOT ONLY A BLACK
FACE BUT AUTHENTIC BLACK FACE
UNDERSTANDING OUR COLLECTIVE
POWER COMES FROM THE UNITY WE
HAVE WITH THE NEW AMERICAN
ELECTORATE, RISING MAJORITY OF
AMERICA AND YOU WELL KNOW KIDS
UNDER THE AGE OF 18 ARE MAJORITY
AFRICAN-AMERICAN, HISPANIC,
LATINOS, ASIAN-AMERICAN,
SPECIFIC ISLANDERS, NATIVE
AMERICANS, ALASKA NATIVE AND ALL
OF THOSE PEOPLE INCLUDING
TRADITIONAL CABLE NEWS VIEWERS
AND OLD FRIENDS WE’VE SEEN TABLE
UP SPACE ON CABLE NETWORK WILL
HAVE A SEAT AT THE TABLE BECAUSE
WE HAVE TO FIGURE HOW TO MOVE
FORWARD AND HODDING THETOLDING T
BIDEN/HARRIS ADMINISTRATION
ACCOUNTABLE, IT’S THE AMERICAN
PEOPLE THAT PUT THEM THERE.
>> THIS NOT JUST ABOUT
PERFORMING AND HAVING A BLACK
FACE ON-SCREEN.
YOU WANT TO BRING FORWARD ISSUES
HERETOFORE IGNORED.
ISSUES DEALING WITH HEALTH CARE.
GRANULAR THINGS BLACK PEOPLE
DEAL WITH ON A REGULAR BASIS.
TIFFANY CROSS WILL TALK ABOUT
HERSELF AND HER OWN STORY.
>> NOT TRUE.
>> SHE’S ALSO REALLY GOOD AT
BRINGING OTHER PEOPLE’S STORIES
TO THE TABLE.
I THINK THAT’S IMPORTANT.
TIFF, ONE THING, ONE FRANCHISE
IN PARTICULAR, THAT’S A SPORTS
REFERENCE, I KNOW YOU DON’T DO
SPORT BALL.
ONE FRANCHISE IN PARTICULAR YOU
WANT PEOPLE TO REALLY, REALLY
GET EXCITED ABOUT, WHICH ARE
THESE THREE?
TALKED YOU THREE, WHICH IS THE
ONE YOU WANT TO GO VIRAL?
>> DEFINITELY "MAKE IT MAKE
SENSE."
FLOOD THE INBOX, TELL YOUR
STUDENTS TO SUBMIT QUESTIONS,
JASON.
I THINK WHEN PEOPLE UNDERSTAND
GOVERNMENT BETTER IT GIVES THEM
A BETTER SENSE OF THEIR OWN
AGENCY AND ROLE IN THE AMERICAN
BODY OF POLITICS.
WE HAVE OVER 250 MILLION PEOPLE
I THINK WHO ARE OF VOTING AGE,
AND WHEN YOU LOOK AT HOW MANY
PEOPLE VOTED, IT WAS CERTAINLY A
RECORD TURNOUT BUT WE CAN DO
BETTER.
WHEN PEOPLE UNDERSTAND THIS
POLITICAL LANDSCAPE AND
UNDERSTAND THE ROLE THEY HAVE,
THEY MUST UNDERSTAND YOU HAVE TO
BECOME A PART OF THE SYSTEM EVEN
IF YOU WANT TO DISRUPT IT, EVEN
IF YOU WANT TO REIMAGINE IT IN A
WAY THAT SERVES YOU.
THAT’S THE SEGMENT I HOPE GOES
VIRAL AND HOPE TO HEAR FROM A
LOT OF PEOPLE.
YOUNG PEOPLE CAN CONTRIBUTE
QUESTIONS, EVEN OLDER PEOPLE.
JUST SO PEOPLE DON’T FEEL SHAME
ABOUT THEIR QUESTIONS I WILL
ALWAYS SHARE EVERY WEEK SOME I
DON’T KNOW AND DO IT TODAY.
BECAUSE YOU TOLD ME YOU WERE THE
PERSON TO TELL ME WHEN I SAID,
WHY CAN’T THE NFL HANDLE THE
CORONAVIRUS LIKE THE NBA?
YOU TOLD ME THAT THERE ARE OVER
50 PEOPLE ON A FOOTBALL TEAM.
I DID NOT KNOW THAT.
I HAD NO CLUE.
I THOUGHT IT WAS LIKE WHAT?
REALLY?
I THOUGHT LIKE 15, 20 PEOPLE?
THAT’S HOW MANY CAN BE ON THE
FIELD.
SO --
>> NO.
>> THAT’S DEFINITELY SOMETHING I
WANT AND I WANT TO SAY MY
FAVORITE SUBJECT IS NOT TALKING
ABOUT ME.
MY FIVAVORITE SUB IS TROLLING YO
BUT THAT’S FAIR.
I STILL LOVE YOU, MY FRIEND.
I DEFINITELY WANT YOU TO HELP ME
MAKE IT MAKE SENSE TO GO VIRAL
AND ENCOURAGE ALL THE PEOPLE.
LOOK AT ALL OF THESE THAT
PICTURES.
YOU KEPT THAT $20.
YOU OWE ME.
>> REMEMBER, WE HAD THAT ON SET.
I KEPT THAT.
>> THAT’S RIGHT, THAT’S RIGHT!
THAT’S RIGHT.
AND YOU KNOW WHAT?
ANOTHER THING WE’RE GOING TO DO,
CAN I SAY QUICKLY, AFTER THE
SHOW IS OVER, I’M GOING TO DO
SOMETHING CALLED CROSSTALK ON
THE INSTAGRAM.
WE’LL GO TO THE GRAM AND GO LIVE
AND JASON, DON’T MAKE PLANS
AFTER 12:00 BECAUSE YOU ARE
GOING TO BE ONE OF THE MAIN
PEOPLE I’M GOING LIVELY.
USED TO DO THAT SOMETIMES, GO TO
BRUNCH AFTER THE SHOW.
YOU WOULD DRIVE FIVE MILES AN
HOUR AND I WOULD BE COMPLAINING.
I DON’T EVEN THINK JASON IS
PRESSING THE GAS, YOU GUYS.
PLEASE!
WE’LL DO THAT AGAIN AFTER THE
SHOW.
>> I HOPE Y’ALL REMEMBER THE
VIRAL VIDEO TOLD THE LIMO TO
LEAVE WITHOUT ME AND I HAD TO
CHASE HER IN A CAR.
THANK YOU VERY MUCH, TIFFANY
