Hello and welcome to the precap, which is a real word.

0:54.2

We're going to make precap happen. My name is Nicole Conlin, and I'm one of the writers at The Daily Show. And this is the podcast where we kind of look forward to next week's episode of the show. And we meet next week's host. We're going to look forward to the big stories. We're maybe going to talk about a little bit what's happening this week, which is crazy. And the host that we're going to meet this week is the one and only Jordan Klepper. Yes. You know, looking forward, it's such an optimistic term. Yes. We are technically looking forward as to what could happen next week. We are looking forward, but are we looking forward to it? That's a more complicated question. Yes, it's hard to say.

1:12.8

So, Jordan, before we get into any of that, we got to address the big thing for our audience, which is you got hacked. Yes, this is, yeah, that's the number one thing the audience is thinking about this week. That's what they care about the most is your Twitter account that you haven't posted on in six months got hacked. It did get hacked this week. You know, it's the internet providing more misinformation for the internet, which is, again, if you've ever needed a reminder not to

1:18.3

believe the things you read, this provided yet another one. Yeah. It was a strange experience,

1:24.2

though. That, yeah, I got a bunch of text messages midweek that I had been hacked.

1:29.4

1:36.4

and what voice they expect you to have online.

1:39.3

Jordan's always selling laptops.

1:41.3

Exactly.

1:42.2

So I did have the friends who were like, oh, I can tell on Twitter you've been hacked. Somebody's saying some horrendous things. But then there's the other tier of friends who are like, hey, man, what's up on Twitter? Which seems like a kind thing to say. And in most cases it was, but against a bunch of other friends who are like, oh, I know for sure this is not you.

2:00.9

Yeah.

2:01.9

There were a handful of people who were like, oh, well, is this you?

2:05.4

And to be clear, I'm not probably or usually the kind of person who tweets really revolting things about the news of the day.

2:13.7

But that's what happened.

2:15.4

Yeah. Well, I'm glad that it wasn't you and I'm glad you're going back to not posting on Twitter

2:19.8

for six months at a time, or maybe ever.

2:21.4

Or ever.

2:22.0

I probably never again.

2:24.3

I mean, it does speak to, I mean, what actually happened was somebody hacked it and they tried

2:30.3
