3. off topic a bit but

Has John ever said if he would want to take over the Daily Show? I would love to see that happen.

[thesquanderer]

4. I would not want to lose this show for that one.

They're both great. If JO took over DS, who would do LWT? Better to let JO do what he's doing. DS will find someone.

19. Good point, how did I not think of that?

I don't get HBO is probably how I didn't think of that, but I like watching these clips!

[underpants]

5. He's already locked into an HBO contract

Plus once a week allows for more than4 times a week.

[Hoppy]

6. TPP will stop such abuses by tobacco companies. Right?

[Newest Reality]

7. LOL!

Oh, no.

I take it that was sarcasm.

I get the impression the TPP is destined to fix those pesky problems that various industries have with those reluctant governments.

[dixiegrrrrl]

17. Oliver gave us a sneak preview of what TPP will do

plus that other similar sounding law they want.

But I gotta say...Oliver's approach is marvelously subversive.

8. #JeffWeCan!

[progressoid]

9. Jeff! Jeff! Jeff!

[1monster]

10. If I ever wondered if a television show could make a difference, I think I've been answered.

Way to go John Oliver!

[Gothmog]

11. I love Jeff the diseased lung in a cowboy hat

[zebonaut]

12. How come I learn more from a comedy show them from corporate evening news?

[classof56]

13. Big K&R. Absolutely brilliant!

[Voice for Peace]

14. This brilliant segment, without even mentioning TPP, has explained it more to me than all

the terrifying articles I've encountered.

[DeSwiss]

16. And that's why it'll take a REVOLUTION.

- Peaceful or otherwise. Preferably peaceful, but have it we must, or they might as well throw the dirt over us now.

And we have to do it soon before the cancer metastasizes. This can't be fixed......

[Voice for Peace]

18. I expect they'll throw the dirt over me before it gets that far..

But I do think there is a revolution going on;
it is a stealth revolution. It's the only way.
Finding doors the enemy doesn't know about,
sneaking in, disabling their power.

[MrMickeysMom]

15. OOOOpsie!

I duped this video after thinking it wasn't up… Sorry DeSwiss! (I'll self-delete)



It was terrific!

[mother earth]

20. I also liked his segment on big Pharma spending more on marketing than R & D...

love John Oliver...

[a2liberal]

21. Kick!

The trade agreement part is vital for the public to understand... TPP aims to make it even worse
