Conversation #178, recorded on August 29, 2019. Nothing is more comforting these days than nostalgia, and writer/director Ben Giroux and songwriter/composer Jensen Reed have spent a pretty penny to offer you a true time machine with BACK TO THE 80s, a viral short stuffing more references into a kickin' hair metal tune than you can even imagine. The duo talk about meeting through the Voice Over world (Ben's credits include HENRY DANGER and BUNSON IS A BEAST), discovering how much footage you can shoot in one location and what's next for the greatest fake hair metal band you've never heard of.

AUGUST 12 2019 - It's THE DAILY SHOW WEEKLY, hosted by Vic Shuttee (@VicShuttee) and Chandler Dean (@chandlerjdean)! What a week it was for interviews as we get TDS wraps on two early favorites, performers Bebe Neuwirth and Michael Clarke Duncan – while the era of the presently famous star actor is upon us, with the first appearance of A-lister Ben Affleck. Meanwhile, the comedy front is light with the debut of the tedious (a new technology segment with Ed Helms entitled DIGITAL WATCH), boring (Oscar coverage WITHOUT Frank DeCaro? Say it ain't so!) and standing (Jon stands to deliver a mostly educational segment on North Korea)!

AUGUST 6 2019 - It's THE DAILY SHOW WEEKLY, hosted by Vic Shuttee (@VicShuttee) and Chandler Dean (@chandlerjdean)! Jon is bringing it hard to democrats on the couch, when Arianna Huffington makes her debut on the couch – but maybe its just because Jon's feeling sad about the Democratic weebles. Meanwhile, he lets Bush speechwriter David Frum have a pass, while Mo gets another crack an anything but fugly Mopinion, and Colbert enters a media den of war.

JULY 24, 2019 - It's THE DAILY SHOW WEEKLY, hosted by Vic Shuttee (@VicShuttee) and Chandler Dean (@chandlerjdean)! It's that last week of Janurary, so the show is hit with two back-to-back obligatory coverage episodes of the Superbowl and The State of Union, which offer plenty of alarms without much depth. But there's good to be found – Jon takes on the cut-tos of Bush's audience and Jeff Greenfield breaks down the Bush re-election hopes and never say never! Both Whaaaa and I On News returns, as does the Rob Corddry unitard.

JULY 23, 2019 - It's THE DAILY SHOW WEEKLY, hosted by Vic Shuttee (@VicShuttee) and Chandler Dean (@chandlerjdean)! A great week for the Late Night Luminaries punch card as the show books talk show legend Merv Griffin and a special appearance by Jimmy Kimmel, the former Comedy Central star on the eve of his grand ABC debut – a job Jon competed for too! Additionally, Stephen Colbert knocks it out of the park as he goes after Dick Cheney's new home and a rebroadcast of his political campaign features future media star Kellyanne Conway. Not to be outdone, Jon releases his id, Frank DeCaro returns for his monthly and one Mo Rocca finally gets a recurring pieces all his own – and That's Quite Interesting!

JULY 15, 2019 - It's THE DAILY SHOW WEEKLY, hosted by Vic Shuttee (@VicShuttee) and Chandler Dean (@chandlerjdean)! The view on Iraq extends to the entire Axis of Evil, and slows down as Bush yearns to head to the Middle East for a bit of war – a fact which clearly depresses guest Michael Moore, and doesn't phase newly minted Democratic frontrunner Joe Lieberman. Meanwhile, in a non-Meanwhile moment, Lewis Black breaks the Back in Black format to try something new… something with a gavel. JUDGE LEWIS BLACK PRESIDES over something not dissimilar to the future Comedy Central series THE ROOT OF ALL EVIL.

JUNE 27, 2019 - It's THE DAILY SHOW WEEKLY, hosted by Vic Shuttee (@VicShuttee) and Chandler Dean (@chandlerjdean)! Jon Stewart starts his new year off with war and elections on the brain. As North Korea and Iraq vie for American intervention, the 2004 presidental election already starts cooking with the introductions of Al Sharpton and Joe Lieberman into the race. Meanwhile, Ed Helms, Rachael Harris and Mo Rocca clock in forgettable segments, while all the goods fall on the chosen few at the top.

Conversation #177, recorded on July 24, 2019. Everybody loves JB Smoove - from stealing scenes in four season of CURB YOUR ENTHUSIASM (with a fifth on the way), to his latest role entering the MCU in SPIDER-MAN: FAR FROM HOME, JB is just getting starting. He spent 3 years writing (and warming up the crowd) on SATURDAY NIGHT LIVE, made the frequent pop in to CONAN's various talk shows, and co-starred in the smash reality-comedy hybrid REAL HUSBANDS OF HOLLYWOOD alongside friend Kevin Hart. Now JB is back to his stand-up roots on the Lollygaggin' Tour through Texas, with a one-night-only spot at Houston's House of Blues on Friday, July 26th.
