"Samuel L. Jackson, I appreciate you for existing." I second that!
I third that
All in favor: ✋
Flo Rete 👍🏾
Yes
👍Here Here👍🤗✌😷✌🇺🇸
I love how Trevor allows his guests to say their say without interruption while asking interesting questions... Makes tbe interview more civil
Have just one guest on per night makes such a difference!
Jimmy fallon is the best! Hahahhahahahahahahahhahgaa
I agree. A good conversation.
Being heard means truly listening.
Jimmy Fallon has left the chat!
Watching this I’m realizing how Samuel L Jackson is like nothing like he is in the movies. He’s so soft, so humble, so full of life 😍🙏
Really? I see quite a few common traits between him and Nick Fury:
A strong sense for justice
A fighting spirit
A stern patriot
...
@@Hornswroggle He's _direct._
Doesn't talk around topics.
Seems to be pretty honest about it too.
@Thembi Tabata And he is a Vegan.
Seventy-one years now! He still looks like he's in his early fifties.......that melanin!!!
Yeah, Melanin is even more valuable than gold, Diamnonds and platinum all put together. No wonder they hates us and dont wanna agree that Black Lives Really matters.🤣🤣🤣
@@efemzyekun900 Yea, but melanin still doesn't cover ugly.
Racist
@Cool Beans, maybe, but lack of melanin most certainly does expose ugliness.
@@clownsheep22 How is a compliment and a truthful one count as racist? My dad once said, "if one has enough in them to try calling you out about racism, they have practiced racism for awhile and recognise it truly!" He also added that people with MELANIN could never be racist because there is no power behind our BEAUTIFUL skin. So to you I say, "Your momma & daddy taught you well in the racism game!"
Samuel L. Jackson is the most fun ever. Smart, experienced, articulate, enthusiastic, and just fucking fun.
And funny
TRUTH!!!
One of the reasons why, I am a fan of his work. He is such a blunt, intelligent and loving person. You can feel his truth, and vibe. I appreciate his wisdom and knowledge. Thank for the Jewels Samuel L. Jackson.
Both of these brothers are dope. Sam made a good point about getting people to understand that today's activism should not be considered as "militant," as we are just trying to create a better world for the next generation.
I mean they should be a little scared 😁🤣
There’s a difference between activism and terrorism ... what is happening today is far from just activism.. tell that to those innocent that have lost their lives, family members, homes , businesses and jobs. There is zero good coming out of what is happening today if there is something positive I would sure like to know what it is. All this .... activism... you are talking about is just dividing our races even more.. we are working on a civil war today..
So I definitely disagree with your outlook... other hand Love Sam Jackson! Great actor
Vickie Shoemaker Then you should have no problem condemning them.
Vickie Shoemaker I agree. The peaceful protests that were happening in Philly: justified. The riots in Minneapolis: unjustified.
@@zeustweeter Saw your comments on this channel...you're just trying to pick fights with people aren't you?
"You are a lost child of this tribe? "
Dude I've been watching TDS from its birth.. Jon passed the mantle to the right cat. Thank you sir .. with you the show hasn't changed.. it's just leveled up
I can't think of anyone who was more qualified to host The Daily Show than Trevor Noah. First time Jon had him on I was like "this is the dude, right here."
It took a couple years for him to really grow on me, I didn't like him much when he first started, but you're absolutely right. Jon Stewart saw what all the detractors at the time couldn't see, that this was the right man for the job.
“Change doesn’t happen without pain” 🔥🔥
I want, no, I NEED to hear a weekly news report from Samuel L. Jackson on the Daily Social Distancing Show!
Make this happen!
Yes this had better happen now. SLJ can give a historical viewpoint
Samuel L Jackson could be to Trevor what Jon Stewart is to Stephen Colbert - like not a regular, just randomly popping up whenever he has strong feelings about some issue and talking a bunch about it.
🔥💯👍
Samuel L. Jackson: "Get this MFing Donald Chump out of MFing office. "
I want a Lewis Black style segment with Samuel L Jackson
Samuel L. Jackson is a few years older than my parents and as he said, he was too young to take part in most of the Civil Rights Movement. In the next ten years, the last of those who took part in the sit-ins, stood up to the dogs and hoses and literally put their lives on the line to make their lives and OURS better will have passed away. We can't back down from this fight, it is our legacy.
I have just looked through your comments on your account sister, I love your thoughts!
It is time ...we all want a better tomorrow and that better tomorrow means a fair world, not just a nation but a world with no injustice and a world of peace and love. It will take some years but Rome wasn't build in a day..put some love in it and move forward to a new tomorrow.
That last sentence again and louder
No but he did. Look up when Samuel L. Jackson was a sophomore at Morehouse College in Atlanta when the Rev. Martin Luther King Jr. was assassinated in 1968
@@lumiere7216 Reading comprehension my friend. I said "most".
Mr Jackson said he is proud of the young people that are protesting police brutality and systemic racism and I applaud them as well. I just wish they didn't have to do it in the first place. I'm 67 years old and I'm looking at history repeating itself. What makes me so sad is our young people should not have to "re fight" this fight. Again...
Tears to my face. Why do we keep having to fight for the same thing for such a long time? We just want to be the same.
Trump has made it ok to be racist again
That's what gets me, why are we still having this fight. This is beyond stupid....................fill in you choice of disgusted adjective.....BS
each generation has to fight to not only keep their existing rights, to but improve the situation. But... trump has legitimized racism and society is moving backwards. We need more protests, but more importantly every protester needs to vote!
Then maybe you people should stop having "the black talk" that's child abuse. No one is hunting people for being black. You can't even say mean words to someone who is black. Let alone hunt them. You people need to just get with the program or go home to Africa were there are no white people
I really hope he starts randomly showing up and telling Trevor how he's feeling about the news. That'd be awesome!
“Change doesn’t happen without pain.” - Samuel L. Jackson 👏🏽
Unfortunately very true. Sad we demand it be this way by ignoring peaceful protests. So many missed opportunities to resolve matters with less pain.
@Michael Sweeney The pain is actually universal. We all suffer when any of us suffer, whether we realize it or not.
Is Samuel Jackson also Jewish???
“Samuel L Jackson never ages I swear he’s been looking the same since coming to America, such a legend”
@@letsgame7460 I don't know if your concern is sincere but Coming to America is a movie starring Eddie Murphy
@@Stormtrooper--dx1xj oh, i didn't know about that movie
@oxy 75 I know. It was hilarious when his gun was took away from him lol.
For some reason I'm just seeing Dave Chapelle
Love me some dave chapelle
Its never too late to make it.....People forget, that Samuel l Jackson didnt become a famous movie star, until he was 46 years old.
Whaaaaat?!
Yes but he was acting for years before the fame
Thank you for that! You're so right!
@@forrestja That’s the point. Being an entertainer doesn’t mean fame is automatically given.
I got teary when Samuel spoke about his return and how he experienced their welcome. So sweet!!
Samuel: Why didn’t you invite me?
Trevor: How can I invite you into your own home?
Boss
That’s what we say where I’m from too!!! Unless we’ve got a sign with your face on it...you’re Good.
Africans hospitality !!
Yeah - he’s good
When people come over to my house my mom says: "this is your home... Feel free to come whenever you like, do the dishes, brew me some coffee or cook... You live here now!" 🤣🤣🤣
@@estherluciano9623 That is so African.
People who are born in an era, when Samuel L Jackson is as alive and to be on the same planet , are Lucky.
We are so lucky...aren’t we😃?!
More liked bless by God .but not by America
During a day of mourning, let us remember why we resist and fight for this country. czcams.com/video/9tPgLPgD3Gw/video.html
@@desertreelmedia4817 im disappointed, i had expecting rick astley
Yuu Tri 😂😂
Mr Jackson is 100% correct. VOTE! Whatever it takes, VOTE.
...and you DID it! Took back the senate and the presidency. a GREAT victory.
Some things will change immediately. Some are going to take some more work and some will take a lot more work..
thats how it. thats how it always is. for all of us.
"Snick" = SNCC = Student Nonviolent Coordinating Committee. SCLC = Southern Christian Leadership Conference. Both major movement organizations in the 1960s.
Thank you, I didn't know what it meant.
What I love about Samuel L Jackson is that he reminds me of every good old black man I’ve ever known. Loving, kind, funny, honest. He feels like home.
@Ashley Davis Worrrdd!
Chinemerem Udoh peak Black uncle!
He admitted a long time ago that he is a racist! Since then I do not watch his movies anymore.
Must be talking about another person named Samuel L Jackson .
He's always been my uncle in my head!
It's not easy to rediscover your tribal roots. I'm so glad he could reconnect with his tribal roots!
It's kinda funny, as I watched the episode of "Finding your roots" with Samuel L. Jackson just yesterday...
I guess youtube's recommendation process was doing some divination, to tell me to watch that...
Whether it is a tribe, clan, house or other group your ancestors belonged to, nobody deserves to be deprived of their roots.
@chocobonita but understandable for African Americans, their history is dark and not well recorded. It's imperative they know their origins.
@chocobonita why is it your inclination to kill any hint of self pride or personal identity that we might gain as black ppl in america? That's the first thing you think of when a black person from America says that they're able to trace their lineage all the way back to Africa?
@chocobonita 😂😂 it's not projection this wasn't some hypothetical situation, I'm literally commenting on what you said. And what you said is big trash. Furthermore we're not white, and don't think or move like them for a reason. And that's not how ws was started, you're factually wrong about that.
I’m ready for all the Samuel L Jackson x Daily Show content that’s coming in the future 😭🔥
Trevor, PLEASE give Samuel a segment where he reacts to the news of the week.
I already loved Sam Jackson, but knowing more about him, he’s one of the greatest. Much respect.
Africa, the home of humanity.
Everyone should make this journey
Not many people in America ever mention Gabon. I feel fortunate to have spent a week working in Libreville some to ago. Nice place, nice people.

He is a hater that was cute lol
You can really see the admiration in Trevor's eyes when he's talking to this man. Dope interview.
"Dope interview." Perfect !
Damn, it's only now that I realize Samuel L Jackson has never been onTrevor's Daily show !?
What a shocker !
This interview sure fixed that wrong. Such a great interview !
Sam just got so much more personal than in any of his other appearances on any talk show. I guess it's also thanks to Trevor's excellent questions and interviewing skills.
Agreed
Ha ha ha!
Ya neguuh
@Adam Lets Play racist
blue cars wrong person chief
Young friend of mine found her ancestral tribe, went back, was welcomed, got her naming ceremony, and wears her African name on a necklace. I met her later - maybe she has always walked like she owns the place. But she sure does it now, and it's good to see.
Samuel L Jackson is a national treasure.
Man, Samuel ROCKS! Such legend, yet, so humble and spontaneous! Gotta love him!
"Sam Jackson is the epitome of hard work"- The truest words ever spoken.
This interview should be more than an hour, Trevor, Sam Jackson is so interesting to listen to
"You've got to understand how revolutionary an act voting is!" Samuel L. Jackson
That is a DREAM TEAM! Trevor and Mr. Samuel L. Jackson.
I know right?!!? More please!!!!
Maaaan I luv Trevor's style his way how he handles business and how he treats ppl, he is a great guy.
The invitation to show up “any time” is a very African thing. Friends and family are allowed to show up to visit without notice! 😌
Yep that's A Very African thing , Right 😌
So true in mother Africa you show up anytime
I was shocked, the first time I heard of a case of a brother, who was unfortunate enough to join himself with an abominable white lady and the woman banned all his relatives and friends from visiting without invitation.
Trust me, the moment the dude was able to get her to come to Naija, the marriage ended...she almost turned the brother into a robot. The muzungu ways of life is cold, lifeless, monotonous and drab.
Yea, even at someone else's house in the middle of the night.
@@efemzyekun900 here here
One of the best. Samuel L. Jackson one the most articulated actors in Hollywood.
yessssss I love that African Americans are tracing their roots to the motherland!!!

*U already Kno,* everything is changing for our good, our time is now. The next rulers of this earth, bringing it back to righteousness. Peace!
Samuel L Jackson is one of the greatest Actor who ever lived!
But has nothing on the actors that never lived.
Man, Trevor, you're amazing. Thank you for interviewing Sam Jackson. He knows the real history, he will tell it like it really is and what must be done. As much of a fan of Jackson I am, I appreciate him as a human and as a man of ethic and integrity. Get out the vote, Mutha F... sorry, had to add that.
"A man can accomplish anything when he realizes he a part of something bigger a team of people who share that conviction can change the world"

I’m crying lol
Samuel L. Jackson starts answering Trevor's question:
Him: When they came to me with the idea....
Me: ...to bring together a group of remarkable people... yes I know that
😂 Marvel guy eh?
I see what you did there..
😂😂😂
😂
A group who knew that with great power comes great responsibility maybe?
I love this man. He's been in a star for what feels like forever, but I feel like I'm always learning something new about him. And I love that he's still doing new things too!
“ We got to get rid of this dude before we can change this place” !!! So true.
💯💯🤔
We just did.!!!!!!.
@@javiermiranda1308 🥳🥳🥳
Samuel Jackson looking like hes growing backwards. Nice to see him keeping himself in good shape✊🏾
Hands down one of the best and most amazing actors of all time. A humble man too.
So glad for Trevor's South African old fashioned hospitality. Samuel L. Jackson can come to his show anytime! I'm glad we will have more of him :)
Nice!😊
I had the joy of serving in the Peace Corps in Cameroon in the 80s. I have never experienced such vibrancy in a people as I did there, and the generosity and welcoming were overwhelming. My life completely changed.
This interview was dope on so many levels 💯
finally,
THIS IS the way to understand HISTORY,
unknown
I can listen to Samuel L. Jackson for hours!!!!!
I definitely want Samuel L. Jackson to be a regular or correspondent on the show.
I enjoyed what Samuel L. Jackson had to say, and the way he delivered it. But, what I think I liked most, was the fact that he had blankets on the backs of all the seats in his theater. It just seemed so nice and welcoming. A caring touch for his guests to be warm and cozy while watching movies. Very sweet.
I would love a Daily Show Ted Talk with Samuel L Jackson to further express protest and why we are criminalized as a people instead of individual. We are not your enemy.
You got it!
Yes!
When has a group of people talked their way out of slavery?
@@chrisreid4711 que?
Most of us aren't your enemy either. We need leaders telling us how we can help because You are US.
That was too short guys let’s do a LONGER retake ASAP
Yes.
Hella plz more Mr. Jackson
THIS
That was 9 minutes too long. Guy is like an old broken record.
@@coolbeans2810 Well the good news is you don't have to watch again and can move on with your life it if it's enough of a problem for you.
MORE SAM L JACKSON, PLEASE!!
This was so refreshing! Trevor, you and Sam make a great duo. I would LOVE to see so much more of you two talking about anything at all.
I adore this man like family. He looks and sounds like my father and nephew. He’s an actor but there’s no stardom, just uncle.
To see Mr. Jackson on the show with any frequency at all would add an immeasurable amount of awesome to the world. One Love
I found this interview so wholesome :) Thanks TDS, this makes my day. Also, it surprised me that Samuel L. Jackson actually pretty chill and funny :))
Samuel is the father figure I never had. So kind, warm, funny, lovely. I wish I could hang out with him and just give him a hug
"Gotta get rid of the dude before you can change the place."
Please go vote. Who runs tour country affects the entire planet. I'm also getting tired of the same old Trump jokes with a different sauce each month... Do the world a favour and vote, please
Check if you have been purged from the voting rolls!
I hope more people realize there are more options than red or blue. Gold is looking really good this election.
PLEASE VOTE - the world culture is affected, climate change progress is affected, race relations worldwide are affected. Nationalism is propped up. GO VOTE AMERICA you affect the world.
Never thought i see this..my heros ...imagine i am in Ethiopia...please keep it up..wakanda 4 ever
This is such a great interview, you both are extraordinary men.
Yes extraordinary
Sam Jackson is a real life super hero for sure. I’m so happy he found his roots. I hope more people can be that fortunate.
I'm teary eyed. These two genuine men conversing. Delightful. Thank you. Also... please yes have Samuel on for anything he'd like to tell.
Samuel L. Jackson: "go f***ing vote!"
He has licensed to be a foul mouth actor.
Oh, I fully support. The cursing and the voting. 🤩
He is the only person that can do that

Samuel L. Jackson is such a REAL person. Humble, kind, enthusiastic, and it's always so surprising to see him in interviews and stuff. He gets cast as a badass (and plays it so well every time), and he IS a badass. But he's so much more than that, too. Honestly despite all the crazy shit going on, and in spite of what we've got to deal with these days (and last few years)... it's a blessing to be alive in an era with people like Samuel Jackson to look up to.
This is an interview I missed out on when it came out. I am most thankful Mr. Jackson made it through his earlier years and shares from the knowledge of his experiences. I am most thankful for Mr. Jackson's existence.
I see the “Die Hard with a Vengeance” poster in the back...Top 3 movies of all time in my opinion!
The End was stupid.. Should have kept the original ending which would of made it a masterpiece..
@Eddie 5 good analogy!
He was in all those movies in the background... I love it!
Long Kiss Goodnight was really great and really underrated, and was always one of his favorite movies/roles, too. It was such a good bit of story telling with a full circle of closure. It felt very complete as far as stories go.
this entire interview warmed my heart in ways I can't describe. Thank you Trevor and Thank you Samuel L. Jackson
The Host is a blessing and of course Sir S.Jackson is just the DOPEST humble dude.......
Shout out to Samuel L. Jackson flexing during a interview in his movie theater.
I love this whole conversation. Lovely.
He needs to have his own segment on the show called "Samuel L. Jackson interrupting the show."
Best idea!!!!
😂😂😂 im into that
YAAAAS
I can hear him now, " Hold up Mother$&/@%"
Yes!!!!
I have worked with Samuel L. Jackson and he's more awesome and brilliant in person than most folk will ever imagine!
We need to multiply both you and Samuel Jackson by a thousand times and then by a thousand times again and get the word out and make it happen! God bless you both!
I'm a simple man. I see Samuel L Jackson, I click
This interview is so heartwarming... ❤😢
SLJ....
The real Godfather.
From Nigeria with love.
Trevor, you are such a blessing to our generation. God bless you both.
Watching Samuel L Jackson speak is uplifting, entertaining, and inspirational. Hope he starts popping in randomly at the Daily Show.
The idea of Samuel L. Jackson just showing up impromptu for his own segment is gold. Even if it's just the last show of the week recapping whatever the hell happened this week.
A year from now when Trevor is doing his show in the studio (hopefully, though it is awesome at his apartment)
Trevor: *random interview noises*
Behind the stage: mother f’er, mother f’er, mother f’er
Sam and Trevor together is just fantabulous. Bingo tribe in Gabon is just an added bonus. Peace!!!
His life is so full of stories, history and personality among many other things. He’s humble so well spoken and to the point. His smile is just contagious too. Thanks Trevor and thanks Samuel L. Jackson ❤️
Samuel L. Jackson is the guest in the Daily Mother f*cking Show 😎
He could tour with Lewis Black.
@@christelheadington1136 😂
Great interview & I'm looking forward to Samuel L. Jackson randomly stopping by during a show!
I'd also really appreciate seeing some discussion on how all the west coast fires are going to impact voting in November. All those people who have lost homes, what voting districts are they going to be in, the one where their old homes were or where they're sheltering? Are they going to be able to get registered in new districts in time to vote? How are the likely population shifts going to impact this year's and subsequent year's elections?
This isn't something we normally think about with major fires, but this year, as SLJ pointed out, we need as many people voting as we can get. With the fires displacing so many people, I can't help but wonder what the impact will be on upcoming elections?
You register your change of address up until the polls close on election day. We also have drop boxes so you dont have to worry about postage time. I'm in Oregon, smoke is awful. Fires still raging. Rain coming after the weekend. At least the wind is gone
I've been worrying about this, too. Maybe one big reason that dump isn't mentioning the fires or sending much, if any, federal help.
Samuel L Jackson is such a legend and icon. It's so fucking wild how humble and kind he is. He never let fame get to his head.
Just impressive. Trevor has that rare mindset, where you are giving a direction without determining the subject and force somebody into giving an answer to a subject. Honestly, this had been my favourite interview by him. Having yourself in a situation where you meet an idol, and not just going to idolize them, but even more get them to speak about a subject and learn from their experience.
Chapeau, Trevor, chapeau.
Sorry,if my english is incorrect.
Man, he is such an amazing individual.
Love the tone and intellect of this interview.
I am glad that he is doing this, and it needs to be discussed openly in front of the new generation so that they know the true history. This will be the first step for the country to actually heal and move forward.
My ex wife didn’t like Samuel Jackson movies. Explains why she’s my ex wife
Who wouldn’t love Samuel L Jackson? Kingsman secret service? Big game? Really?
She was jealous, because he got to see Gina Davis' boobies!
You have to have standards amirite? 🤷🏾♀️
😂😂😂😂😂👌💯
😂
Samuel Jackson is very talented and the actor you just love to hear him cuss. He makes you laugh even when he cuss and shows his eyes. ,🤣😂😄
I wonder if Samuel L. Jackson can teach Biden to use MFer, when and if he starts to stutter. Because that would come in handy in debates against Trump.
Biden got in trouble, when as VP an open mic, caught him using the "F" bomb.
@@christelheadington1136 when Obama signed the Affordable Care Act (ObamaCare) into law, Biden hugged him and was caught saying "This is a big F**kin'" deal". And that was awesome!
😂😂😂
OHHHH, that would be a good piece to see Samuel teach Biden how to say it like he does.
debbiedoodiedandi Thanks, this image makes me smile :)
In Spain we often talk about "whitebread Americans" as being "the people without roots"; it's like, they may come tell you "yah man I'm Irish" or give you percentiles of ancestry which sometimes don't even make mathematical sense (you can't be one-third anything, seriously) but they can't tell you where their grandma was born, or how many cousins they have...
"Whitebread Americans" are that way by choice, though. African-americans were denied the choice.
Well you can't really say it was a choice, many people left my country (Ireland) to go to USA because they were going to starve to death otherwise, during the famine.
Samuel L Jackson is the man who will take Trevor's offer. You can count on that! He stands by his promises! Great guy!
