Jon Stewart was at the helm of America’s The Daily Show for 15 years – a satirical news programme and talk show- that questioned and made fun of those in charge as well as the media that reported on them. (Subscribe:
Since he left the programme, he’s campaigned for the thousands of sick and dying responders of 9/11 to receive free medical care.
He’s also written and directed a film – ‘Irresistible’ about the disconnect between the Washington elite, both Republican and Democrat and the voters they periodically try to woo. Through the prism of a mayoral election in a tiny town in rural Wisconsin, the film tackles almost all the ills of America’s political system.

Biden smells like my chipotle farts.
why are Americans so cought up in some bullshit words what about is actions
if you can think of any how about he didn't start another war
How many more wars would there be with crooked Hillary Clinton
I'd like Jon Stewart revel all of his off colored remarks before he ever tries for another job
As a German, I say: Trump has done a very good job. And many many people were surprised (well, I was not surprised). Even here in Germany, we are saying that Trump was BY FAR the best president the United States ever had! Our german Government (which sadly…is running by the left communists, also Merkel since her youth was a communist hardliner) of course didn't like Trump, but the german people loved him. It was the first time, that an U.S. President somehow caught our attention, and in a positive way. Even when he was not our own president. But I wished he was. I loved his actions, I loved the way he always straight said what he was thinking and the fact he hated political correctness. I never felt like his verbal style was meant to hurt somebody and I always knew this is just his cheeky style and I liked it. I'm a big fan of the way he treated CNN assholes and other press liars. That was great! I also never had a problem with his tweets or postings. It was funny.. 😀 You always felt like you had a kind of friend in him. It's a shame he's no longer president. I miss him and I hope he will come back! Greetings from Germany!
The comments of the peevish Trumpers here are hilarious. "John, you was funny til you started criticisin our Presden, now you suck, you old and pass it an I hate you …"
Jon Stewart needs his own show again
Old Wack Donald t Rump’s COVIDIOTS support FREE-DUMB! #BLM
In. Ca. Fontana. My. Life. Is. On. Line…
Crazy how much Chet Hanks looks so much like Jon Stewart.
Trump demanded to be Time magazine's Person of the Year year after year and when he finally got it, he complained that he wanted to be MAN of the Year. There is absolutely no amount of praise that will ever be enough for him.
The Bush era was an easy act to follow. All the Obama era had to do was not be corrupt, violent and crooked like the Bush administration. Obama had started fresh wars after getting a nobel peace prize and armed terrorists that levelled Iraq a second time and almost started ww3 lol…
Where was the criticism? Where was the outrage? It didn't come from Jon Stuart. And now they wonder why guys like Trump have come along. The Bush era saw the rise of anti-neocon republicans among young guys but the Obama era's corruption didn't seem to bother Democrats at all. Now you guys have Biden. Lol.
Mary Trump is messed up in her head….Mocking her uncle Donald Trump as she does she is no
better than MSNBC, CNN, ABC and CBS…They mocked President Trump since he was
elected and in no doubt created treason. She must be a crack addict or just plain stupid and jealous.
We had the best economy ever and lowest gas prices, etc when President Trump was in office..
I use to think this guy was intelligent, but this interview is terrible. When he had his show, his jokes were funny and insightful, but I see now his information is superficial. Jon Stewart didn't age well. You're suppose to get wiser with age, but this guy has regressed.
Jon Stewart is out of touch with most normal people but still a genius
He just agreed with trump on the Wuhan lab leak theory and liberals have lost their minds. Keeping it real as always. Need more JS.
BLM is a terroist organization. when are people going to wise up.
Stewart's makes me understand why folks vote for Trump –his gentry generated narcissism his intolerable sanctimony. I am sorry I did not vote
Surgeons don't wear masks outside you tard
Jon's not smart enough to do a podcast……he needs lots of writers……the more you know.
I love me some Jon Stewart!!!
O john john john i could have done something if i wasn't me… But then i wouldn't have cuz i wouldn't be me… Life's so unfair… But im used to it…
Sith mind tricks…. Works best on the stupid……
What a load of bs. This is the man who wrote the crime bill that got more blacks locked up than any other time in American history that are still behind bars to this day. You vote that back in and expect a different result?????????
Working-class people in the US voted for Trump knowing that they would be worse off. Trump's "skill" was convincing those same people that it would hurt their opponents more.
Jon Stewart the best. Period. Miss you man…
Woman don't like being grabbed by the woohoo?
It is so sad to see there are no other person can be candidate for us of a presidency…
There are lots of well-educated people and good human being in United State why does these two person.
American should wake up and do something
There is no different between these two…
Joe B. And his party create more war in other countries .
BLM are just terrorists.

I wish Jon Stewart ran for president
Jon, fans don't get to talk to you much, unless on the off chance they bump into you on the street in New York. if I could speakwith you, I'd tell you how much I miss your Daily Show characters, your 22 minutes per show, four-day-a-week, 16-and-a-half year odyssey of mining turds and skewering dumb GOP politicians' statements. Like Gohmert for example.
No question that show made you a household name, your show required viewing by anyone under about 65. And gave so many funny men and women their own TV shows or great comedy and/or acting careers. I'm talking about that gaggle of Daily Show correspondents you brought together for the finale show. Plus a brief cameo by Trevor Noah and the Boss and his band to close it out.
One think I won't miss much is the third segment, the celebrity or politician or author interviews. Except for the ones with comedians or actors, where at some point the format on the blue card was abandoned and you and the guest just winged it the way Carson used to do during some sketches or een interviews. I see Johnny in some of your comedy, the voices and physicality, especially in your ability to recover from a joke that didn't land the way you planned and then land the next however many jokes like the master comedian you are.
But the best part of the show was your monologue. Just you doing a iece from the esk, the way Allen, Paar, Carson, Griffin, Mike Douglas, Letterman and Leno do so well. Always topical and compelling to watch, funny and memorable without fail.
I'll never forget your first night back after 9-11, especially the hopeful imagery you gave all of us about previously no being able to see the Statue of Liberty from your apartment because th World Trae Center blocked you view. But after the attack you could then see lady Liberty. I'm not an American; I'm a Canadian and I still had a lump in my throat that night.
Finally, great job on Irresistible, Jon. Ditto for Rosewater. Both excellent, thought-provoking films. Can't wait to see what you come up with next, or your next pop-up segment on Colbert. Sta safe, stay indoors and get that vaccine ASAP. Happy holidays!
Very impressed with Jon. Never had really listened to him before on serious issues. Carry on Jon!!!!
Love you Jon and your cool blue eyes <3 Great post! Thank you for being one of the good guys!!
Way too intelligent for this BS John. And what you've done for the first responders of 9/11 is righteous. But your simply towing (toting) a narrative here and its cowardly sir.
So black lives matter?
What about free Africa?
Good thing John stuard talks about the real issue like JIMMY DORE.
numberblocks gfriend onepunchman
I had to look up the word “fealty” and it fits perfect, well done as always Jon.
