JESSICA TARLOV (CO-HOST): Mickey Mouse is now a creepy serial killer in a new live action horror film. It's because the copyright for the original film, "Steamboat Willie", which dates all the way back to 1928 has finally expired. Greg, is this the serial killer that we all need?
GREG GUTFELD (CO-HOST): I don't know. I'm surprised he's not canceled yet.
TARLOV: Mickey?
GUTFELD: Yeah. Look, the little rodent probably identifies as white. He's never marched for civil rights. He hates blacks cats. Let's be honest, he's not a good person. Anyway, I thought Steamboat Willie was a euphemism. I had to go to a doctor.
...
JESSE WATTERS (CO-HOST): I would have made Mickey a migrant. And I would've had him pay Wile E. Coyote to smuggle him north. And then I would have had him fake-adopt Speedy Gonzales as his son so he would've got asylum and then Elmer Fudd would have shot him dead in Texas.
GUTFELD: How did you do that?
TARLOV: That's actually a great cartoon.
WATTERS: That would've been a great film.
