Shark Week is racist and white guys are dumb enough to get in the water with sharks. I m sorry for being racist towards sharks, but it s real, and it s also never ends. I mean, maybe we re running out of nonsense to be outraged about, or maybe we're just running out ideas to be offended about. But either way, we need to update our diversity, equity, and inclusion standards at Discovery Discovery, because we re not seeing enough sharks named Mike, and we re tired of being racist at the expense of other groups. I know, I know... it s a stretch, but we can t have it all, can we? Is it racist that sharks are overrepresented in Shark Week? or is it racism that they re overrepresented by white guys named Mike? I ll tell you what, it s not racist at all! You can t make it up, folks. I'm sorry that you enjoyed it, and I hope you enjoy it, because it's not racist anymore, because I know it's time to update standards and diversity and equity and inclusion at Discovery is a problem. . And it also needs a bigger boat, y'all. I know that's a problem, but that's what I'm here to fix it, not you, right now, right here in New York City, so we can have it. ? (Sorry, guys. I love ya. I can't wait to see you in the next week, yay! xoxo, Caitlyn Caitlyn Jenner - Caitlyn's new book: ( ) :( (Catch ya. (Jaws quote: "I thought it was fake but it's real, right? ) (jaws: I'm not racist? (I'm sorry, but I know you're not racist, right, but you can do it, I'll be better than you'll get better, right??) Thank you, Caitlin Jenner: "You can't be racist?" "I know you can be racist??" (SORRY, right?! ) (JAWS, JAWS! (SURPRISE, Jaws: JAWKEEEEEEEE ?) and I'll see you next week! :D) (P.S. - JAWNS
00:00:07.000Apparently, according to The Washington Post, Shark Week lacks diversity and over-represents men named Mike, scientists say.
00:00:19.000So the Washington Post said that researchers say Discovery's program overwhelmingly featured white men as experts while emphasizing negative messages about sharks during Shark Week.
00:00:49.000You don't have to do anything. Just be ashamed all the time and you should somehow be covered.
00:00:53.000On behalf, and I will speak for them generally speaking now, I couldn't do this for any other race, but I think I can speak on behalf of white men everywhere.
00:01:04.000I'm so sorry for being racist towards Checks, notes, sharks.
00:01:22.000You're going to need to update your diversity, equity, and inclusion standards discovery.
00:01:28.000Maybe, maybe, because I know I've been in the water with sharks a lot.
00:01:33.000Maybe white guys are just the only people dumb enough to get in the water with sharks.
00:01:38.000Is that okay? I assume that's not racist because I'm poking fun at these things.
00:01:43.000But like, the other silver lining is guys, if The Washington Post is running a story about Shark Week lacking diversity and that the scientists included in researching sharks are overwhelmingly right.
00:02:01.000Maybe, just maybe, we're running out of things!
00:02:05.000We're doing things to pretend to be racist.
00:02:08.000Maybe we're finally running out of nonsense to be outraged about.
00:02:14.000Because, honestly guys, that one's a stretch.
00:02:19.000Most of them these days are a stretch.
00:02:22.000When everything in the world is viewed through the lens of racism and how it somehow doesn't represent some group, it's a problem.
00:02:36.000I mean, you don't hear anyone talking about like, I don't know, I feel like short, unathletic white guys like me, and I'm not that short, I'm 6'1", but relative to the NBA, I'd be pretty short.
00:02:48.000I feel like I'm grossly underrepresented In the courts of the NBA, and yet no one would seem to have a problem with that.
00:02:55.000But guys, Shark Week, be sorry that you enjoyed it because you too are, I guess, continuing the patriarchy or some sort of other nonsense.
00:03:12.000Crazy. Can't make it up anymore, folks.
