NO voted for Warren. Now he wants Sanders. Talks the candidates in generalities. Feels everyone would be better, explains it in analogy we had a full meal (of candidates) which is better, than what we’re being served now (T45). Talks about Parks & Rec. Talks about not gender-izing everything. Yes he can chop firewood, but so can his sister, stay openminded.
Married 16 yrs to Megan Mullally, shows photo. They wrote a book, and have a podcast In Bed with Nick and Megan. Says they record in their bed, talks about why their marriage works. Podcast is about everything, not just relationships, and the guest has things they want to talk about. Moves on to his new show, explains the premise.
Plays clip. Booker joins by satellite. He’s in Michigan (with Harris) stumping for Biden. Booker says all the things you’d expect him to say, so I’m not going to summarize it all. Joy asks what is Booker’s issue with Sanders. Booker says normal nice human things about Sanders, then explains why he feels Biden is the one who can unify and win the election.
Meghan pivots to coronavirus and asks about candidates and their campaign rallies. Booker says things, repeats everything we’ve already heard. Mentions some Biden events stopped doing rope lines, or are doing elbow bumps (also there was hand sanitizer squirt for one event, as each person entered). Joy asks about VP slot. Booker loves his job, he was vetted by Hillary. Likened it to a deep cavity exam. Ducks the question. He wants to serve and make a difference but he’s going to support the Biden ticket. Whoopi jokes that she’s turned it (VP) down.
Whoopi brings up (possibly but not really) awkward exchange at last Royal event. Then goes to news clip where London woman actually says many British feel Meghan is “5-clicks up from trailer trash”, which gets a frinkle-face reaction from the reporter. Yikes, these f’ckers. Panel is aghast at that woman’s comment. Trashes the London woman. Loathsome and shocking. It’s why they’re leaving, it’s ridiculous, how they treated her. It wasn’t overblown. They said the same about Wallis Simpson but in different terms back then. Kate isn’t from royalty but she didn’t get trashed [more than “Katie Waity”]. Meghan reads some British tabs, the treatment of her (Duchess) is atrocious.
Anthony Daniels is the only actor to appear in all Star Wars films and he’s promoting his book I am C-3PO: The Inside Story AD says he was a ~serious actor, so he didn’t want the part when he first met with George Lucas in 1975. Explains his evolution, how grateful he is. Talks about why he think it’s such an iconic character. They talk about his character voice. Everything about it was good for him as an actor, the physicality and voice tone and embodying the character’s nature. Talks about the impact of having video or downloadable viewing options where you can pour over scenes and watch them again and again. They surprise him with Chewbacca and R2D2. With offer of sanitizer. Everyone gets a digital download of The Rise of Skywalker.
This was a missed opportunity. There’s no explanation what the book really covers, or why it would be interesting to read.
