Summary

Ziwe (host of an amazing Instagram Live show, writer for Desus & Mero) competes to cheer Josh up! Ziwe sets the all-time Make My Day high score by crushing a game of Discomfort to This Comfort (which Josh probably could have come up with a better name for). She then splits her $100 grand prize winnings between the Food Bank for New York City, the Marsha P. Johnson Institute, and a purchase of stamps. Finally, Josh and Ziwe give pep talks for people who are slightly under the weather and people who don't read the whole email.

0:00.0	Hello, this is Josh Gondelman. No, I'm sorry, I'm Josh Gondelman, and this is Make My Day, a comedy game show.
0:11.4	The world is a stressful place, so every week we try to make it a little kinder and more fun and gentler for half an hour, I don't know, 25 minutes, however long it takes.
0:20.6	I'm going to play a game with one guest who's guaranteed to win because she's the only
0:23.9	contestant on the show. I will assign her points for each question she answers based on how much
0:28.7	her answers cheer me up. At the end, she will win a $100 grand prize donation to the cause or
0:34.8	charitable aid group of her choice. And to conclude the show, each of us will give a pep talk to a person or group we think
0:41.9	deserve it or needed at this moment because this isn't all about me.
0:45.5	It's just mostly about me.
0:47.4	My guest today is a writer for Deezes and Mero on Showtime.
0:50.8	She's the voice of Kamala Harris on Our Cartoon President, also on Showtime. She's got a book coming out at some point, not right now. So just like be aware of that always until the future. And she's the host of her own Instagram Live show that is just like truly the comedy event of the summer every Thursday night at 8 Eastern on Instagram Live. Welcome to the show,
1:12.3	Z-WA. Hi, Josh. Thanks for having me. Hello, thank you for being here. I haven't seen you
1:17.0	in so long. We were just talking about, because you've been off doing a mystery gig this summer.
1:21.3	Yes, a mystery gig that I'm not allowed to talk about famously. And also, I guess the way we said it,
1:28.5	the way we almost put it too mysterious.
1:30.7	Like, it sounds like you run a house
1:32.5	where people get murdered
1:33.5	and then have to solve the murder.
1:35.0	I would love a murder house situation.
1:36.9	I think I would be a good detective
1:38.1	of my own crimes.
1:41.2	You mean you would like,
