We're getting quite an education on so many things - by watching a comedy show!

I know! Since I've been posting the late night comedians, I'm noticing how often they're off!

I think a lot of us were disappointed when he didn't become permanent host of The Daily Show

From a marketing perspective, where better to sow the seeds of fear than a hate- and fear-monger's show?

Equifax, I mean, not John. He's great. He can deliver so much useful information in a clear and humorous way.

When Jon stepped down, but I agree that this is a much better vehicle for him - his delivery is quite compelling, LOL. And I also really like Trevor Noah who is very talented, completely gets current politics and is also extremely funny!
