“Is that your little mantra? Yes. Okay. Telling conversations in a culturally complicated time. There's a lot of C's going on there. You can find me on the Instagram, but that's really just my kids. That's at Steph Rule. You can find me on the Twitter at S-Rule. You are on TV. You are on the TV.”

“Correct. And I'm pretty sure people who signed that letter from the business roundtable, I think there's a few people who have benefited from the carried interest loophole that was supposed to come out of the tax code last time and it's still in there. And I'm going to hold all those people to account.”

“And Alan said no. I made, yes, you're just president. And Alan said, nope, I only interview people that I respect And I thought about it. I think about that, she said that so, and it doesn't even necessarily have to be, she has a different kind of show. You don't have to have people that you always like But I really want to bring people on of influence. And if they're not making us better and smarter, I sure shit want to expose them for it, but I want to try to bring people on who actually care about the world being better and smarter. I want to hold the business roundtable accountable for this whole new plan that they have to care more. You believe them. To care more. I don't believe them. Really? Because I'm pretty good that.”

“I think I don't have an answer yet for who's your dream guest? Obviously. You know, I remember Ellen DeGeneres asked when Meghan Kelly was, I never forget this. Ellen Degenere asked Megan Kelly, would you interview Donald? Because she was starting a morning show. There was no politics. And she said, would you interview Donald Trump? And Megan said, of course I would. She goes, wouldn't you?”

“But I don't know if I was a single mom and I was living in the south side of Chicago and I didn't have a good job, my kids went to a horrible school and I didn't live in a safe neighborhood, I might say I have nothing to lose. So we have to really address, and I'm going to focus on it, definitely as we lead into the election, as we listen, a recession is not a crisis, right? Ken Lang of All People said it best. It's like a diet nobody wants to go on it, but every few years you need one. So I'm definitely focused on the recession, the economy. And are people better off? The president rightfully went to see lots of people and said, I'm going to solve this. And reprehensively, he had no intention of doing it. And he didn't.”

“Correct. They're not getting their jobs back. Any money besides buybacks that CEOs are spending from their big tax cut is not on hiring low-skilled workers. It's on automation. And if we don't just start addressing that, and bravo to Andrew Yang, who's bringing that up over and over, that is the issue, right? We need to talk more about if you care about income inequality, then you better care about public education because the education you and I, I don't know if you went to private school or public, I went to public. The education I received as a kid is far better than the public education being offered to people now. So when the president actually said, I remember he had those two events, I want to say in African American churches when he was running, and he said, what do you have to lose? And the elite media, me part of it, were outraged and it was offensive and it was offensive.”

“I'm very much focused on across the board, financially and culturally, are we better off? Where are we going? Because I do think as it relates to cancel culture, simply flushing people down the toilet and saying, I'm done with them isn't going to solve anything. And misusing data that just talks about the economy is great or business is great. It's not. I mean, listen, it's really good. The United States is better than other countries, but this whole idea that, you know, we're bringing manufacturing back, Kara, Laverne and Shirley are never getting their jobs back at the bottling factory.

“And I'm sure you've talked about this at length, but the insecurity, the depression, what is happening to our kids and our teens because of social media, these companies aren't going to change their behavior because we're their content creators. The advertisers love it. The only thing that's going to change it are the rulemakers, the lawmakers, and they have to actually do something.”

“We're just a startup. It's just free speech. I get it. You didn't realize you were going to create a monster, but you did. And regulation hasn't caught up. It's to me, it's unthinkable to not call these organizations publishers at this point. They are absolutely publishers. And I just don't understand why there aren't more standards. I happen to love Instagram. But I actually went to Instagram months ago and they tried to tell me that they don't allow Instagram accounts for people under the age of 13. And I said, I can name you 20 people I know whose babies have an Instagram account.”

“I lost my mind. I'm not going to, you know what? And I stood up and I said, This is, I'm in the green room. And I said, this is insane. This is ridiculous. And everyone is looking at me like I have two heads. They're going, what do you mean? And then the person who ran content sat down with me and they said, Well, Facebook didn't want to do an interview at all. They just wanted to do a presentation. So this was a compromise. And I said, so they went from an advertisement to an infomercial. We are part of this because this does go to The Svengali PR machine that Facebook was for years. And we don't think that it's access journalism, but to an extent. It absolutely is.”

“And it's easy to say people should read terms and conditions. Nobody's ever going to read that. They're just not going to. And when we say Facebook has a huge problem, I think they have a huge existential problem, but I don't actually think they have a real problem because their advertisers haven't left and people aren't deleting. So was Mark Zuckerberg grilled on the hill? Yup. And maybe he was embarrassed. But all he really needs to do the next day is turn the TV off. Because that next day, Facebook was still making $110 million. So I think we think they have a big problem, but they don't. On Monday, I did an event, I did a conference.”

“But my big worry, honestly, is about standards and best practices, right? I can't sit down and write a nonsense story, a made-up story that says, you know, you should take your kids out of school, let them watch TV and play video games all day. That'll make them the next Mark Zuckerberg. I can't write that story and put it on NBCNews.com tomorrow because of legal and standards. I could write that story and then buy the website great American moms.com put it on Facebook and in a week my mother will be telling me that story.”

“Listen, I think we are in a dangerous, dangerous place. I remember during the last campaign, I went and I spent the night at a sorority house, and I was asking, it was amazing because I played a game with all the girls, you know, celebrity, you know, with all the names in a hat. And they didn't know any of the people I knew, and I didn't know any of the people they did. But I was asking them about where they got their news, and I was asking about the platforms or the candidates, and they had no idea. And I thought, we have so much content out there, but so little is getting through.”

“That it was the first. Yeah, it's interesting. One time I was doing a story on there's a lot of off the record insulting too, like undercutting and stuff like that. And one of the top executives in somewhere I was writing about was saying, and I had not had a lot of experience, I was writing about internet people watching his own set of sexism and racism and things like, which is very different. Someone wanted to call someone an anchor monster. That's a great quote. You should use that. I said, well, can you put your name to that? No, of course not. And I said, well, I'm not going to use it. I'm not going to be your vehicle for slagging someone. This happened to be a woman. I said, I'm not going to have you use my vehicle for doing that. I'm not slagging unless you put your name. Put your name on it. I'll do the quote. Yeah. Sure will. But you need responsibility for it. And it was, no, why would I do that? I was like, I just was fascinating. But that's saying encounter.”

I mean, once you made it through the brutality of the first few phases that shouldn't be as brutal as they are and you built your book of business, in my experience, you could be black, white, purple, or a woman or pregnant or standing on your head.

“I don't begrudge his network, but when a public school girl from New Jersey walks in and there's nobody who looks like her or sounds like her, she's really got to find her own path. Now, Wall Street failed for a long time at getting other people in. Maybe they're addressing it. But as far as Kind of the more twisted things that I now see, whether it's in entertainment or media, they're much more subjective businesses where a couple of people have huge power over opportunity for. For everybody. And you know, there's only so many hours on TV, there's only so many parts in a movie. In banking or technology, hey, if you can come up with something, there's more money to be made. So subjective businesses where people's job function isn't that closely tied to profitability, I think can get more twisted. 100%. I think it's that way in academia.”

“Yes, but also industries that are really subjective. I would say on Wall Street, a positive is yes, in terms of racism and sexism, it was very much a boys club and very hard to get in, right? When my husband and I, we met in the training program at Credit Swiss, but when we both walked in to Credit Suisse on a trading floor on our very first day, He walked on as a private school guy who went to Princeton where he played lacrosse. So when a guy like that walks onto a trading floor, there's an inordinate amount of guys in his network who are going to help him make his way.”

“Yeah, and it's funny because when Rachel Maddow talked about NDAs the other day, that's what made me think the most. Because in my mind, and I think I've been conditioned to think that, I always felt like, well, you know, there's two lanes. You can either have your story to tell and you can go tell it, or, you know, you get a settlement and then you don't get to tell your story, and that's what it is. But it's amazing to me that that's, I thought of it in such a simplistic way. Because for the most part, NDAs in this situation is unique to women. And so that. Compensation settlement is really about you had to leave your job. You maybe had to leave your industry. But the money plus not being able to ever speak that again is about a corporate cover-up.”

I notice it the most with my assistant. And sometimes I'm thinking, oh, you're naive and you're green. But what I realize, what I actually realized is maybe I've been inside the corporate asylum for so long that I don't know that it's crazy. And that's maybe the most upsetting.”

“Right? If you want an organization where everyone has, and by the way, you should want an organization where everyone has their voice heard because I'm old. I don't have any new ideas. You want the youngest people to have a voice and have a chance to speak their mind. When I look at the people who have the most questions or who are the most upset, it's they're the people who are the most disconnected and they shouldn't be across every industry. We should take our youngest people and make sure they have a seat at the table. And when there's all been all these arguments before about diversity and quotas, this is a great example of the importance of diversity of thought. You have to have more people questioning everything you do.”

“Listen, it's a trying time there for sure without a doubt. I think that, I mean, I'm very much focused on my show and my team. We covered Ronan's book. We didn't cover it before it came out. We covered it when it came out because I remember feeling like we're going to cover this, but I never covered any book that we haven't read. I think it's a complicated issue. It's complicated at NBC and elsewhere. And I think it's sort of a reminder of a corporate class system. Even if you look at the people who feel confused or upset, and I often feel like, well, I'm not that confused or upset. And what that exposes is the more senior people are, the more access they have to information and power. And that has to change.”

“Well, one by one, and we'll get to this in a second. I want to get rid of the school marm idea, Ronald Elizabeth Warren. Someone said that to me the other day, I go, when did you meet a school mom, precisely? And they're like, well, and I go, you've never met a school marm, Laura, Ingels Wilder. I said, little house on the prairie doesn't exist. You did not, you never met a school marm. There's no such thing. You've never had a teacher who behaves like that, I'm guessing. I'm guessing there's no marmish. Like, like, what do you live in 1890 and wear like a petticoat? No, there's no such fucking thing as a school marm. So stop, pick another word. And then I figured out, I finally figured out why these guys don't like her, especially guys, because she was the professor. I try and figure out who she is to them because there's everyone's something to someone or remind someone. She's the professor in college, the really good professor in college that gave them a D they very much deserved.”

You're talking about everybody, if we only talked, this is what I think there is a cynical group of people that are gaming people who have that attitude. If we only talked, oh yeah, I'm going to get in there and seem reasonable and seem like I like that person. That person's a nice person when they have appalling attitudes do appalling lies and are gaming the people who have the good sense to want to connect with people.
