00:00:00
I was approached about a role at 60 Minutes and I said, "No [ __ ] way. >> I want you to say what they wanted you
00:00:06
to do on 60 Minutes, which cracks me the [ __ ] up." Because then it's not to do
00:00:09
the like big interviews with Trump or do the investigative pieces where you dress
00:00:13
up in a beer. >> Oh, no. No. >> What did they want from Professor Galloway?
00:00:18
>> To do one or more of those Andy Rooney segments. >> Yeah. So, you're Andy Rooney. You know
00:00:22
what really bothers me about soda pop is what? >> And by the way, let me be clear. I grew
00:00:28
up watching 60 Minutes with my mother. Had someone called me 12 or 24 months ago and offered me that role, I would
00:00:34
have said, "I'll pay you. What do you want? What do you want? What do you want
00:00:37
me to do?" Literally, other than hosting a podcast with you, that would have been
00:00:40
my crowning achievement professionally. And now I'm like, the last [ __ ] thing
00:00:44
I want to do is wake up to social media after they hear that I'm having anything
00:00:49
to do with this [ __ ] show right now. >> I just would have yelled at you. Like,
00:00:53
are you [ __ ] kidding me? Can I just say you're better than that? That's how
00:00:56
I feel. Anyway, you're stuck with me, Cara. You're stuck with me.
