The Problem with Jon Stewart - caught the the first 1/2 of the first show

It’s funny but he obviously couldn’t just redo the Daily Show. It’s like the last part of Jon Oliver’s show, a deep look into one topic. First topic was Military Veterans and Burn Pits. Not a very uplifting topic.

Panel discussion after his intro.

It’s still Jon Stewart though.

you can see it if you don't have an apple product. I hope he gets new fans as well as old. You have to wonder if things would be as bad as they are if he had not retired from the Daily Show. Not missing his kids' childhoods was a great reason but his voice was greatly missed.

I just started watching it one night. Not really a Sudakis fan but the show is really good.
