This multi host concept is so innovative and it keeps the daily show as the most interesting show on tv right now IMO

[@mcgreeniepants]

Yeah actually talk about diversity in late night comedy... We don't need a single host, I have come to really like the variety. It lets us hear from so many voices that otherwise wouldn't get to be in front of us. And hopefully it also they all have better work-life balance than single stars of shows like this historically have. I think it does anchor the whole thing to have Jon doing Mondays, feels like the best of both worlds. When Jon is behind the desk, I usually agree with him but even when I don't, I'm impressed with his delivery. His incredible comedic skill with this format is just so obvious. He's the GOAT and no one does it quite like him, and it's an additional pleasure to see different comedic talents delivering the great work of the excellent TDS writers' room.

No matter what party is in office, their stance on Israel won't change. This goes far beyond the president's pay grade.

I have all sorts of long-haul issues from mono as a teen & Lyme disease back then too so for 30 years I've been fighting health issues. This morning while going back to my condo from caregiving for my 80-year-old Mom, I stopped by to say hello to a family friend who is 89, she was outside with a giant stick clearing out leaves, etc., from her rental apartment side yard and she lives alone with no help from anyone!
