The Daily Show: Ears Edition

This week's host Ronny Chieng sits down with Daily Show writer David Angelo to preview the week to come, and recap the latest headlines.

They'll dive in to Kash Patel's FBI funded snorkeling trip at the Pearl Harbor Memorial, explore the inherent weirdness of the Eurovision Song Contest, and unpack a ridiculous Clavicular headline.

Looking ahead, they discuss Colbert's last week on The Late Show, and Trump's electoral revenge campaign on Republicans that dared to cross him.

As The Late Show with Stephen Colbert approaches its final episode, take a look back at the celebrated correspondent and host of The Colbert Report's time at The Daily Show.

From his very first report on gentle TV nostalgia, through his sendoff of Jon Stewart for Jon's (first) retirement, his run for President (or at least Presidential PAC money), teaming up with Steve Carell for "Even Stepvhen" and God for "This Week in God," he arrived the son of a simple turd farmer, and left a legend...

Jordan Klepper digs into Trump’s media-frenzied visit to China, from Fox News anchor Bret Baier wanting a Chinese robot’s sausage, to President Xi making Trump confront history and stairs, to the closed-door conversations about Taiwan that left Trump shaken. Plus, Ronny Chieng helps Josh Johnson get his Asian references straight.

Grace Kuhlenschmidt gets fired up about the latest tech news, including Prego's dinner table listening device, Bebop the Robot's air travel fail, delivery bots bringing the pain to pedestrians, and the rise of robo-Buddhism in South Korea.

Filmmaker Boots Riley joins Jordan to break down the absurdist, comedic world of his new film, “I Love Boosters,” and how it uses fashion and shoplifting culture to interrogate capitalism. He is unapologetic about his politics, arguing that working within capitalism is unavoidable, but that the goal should always be to help the working class build the kind of collective power that can actually change policy. Riley believes great art should push people toward action long after the credits roll and reminds the audience that films like this only get made when audiences show up.

Jordan Klepper covers Trump calling a reporter a "dumb person" over questions about his ballooning ballroom project and dives into the president's CEO-spangled boys' trip to a major summit in China. Plus, while Trump is away overseas, MAGA pops off on Don Jr. and Eric’s Trump Mobile phone company for failing to fulfill its orders for roughly 600,000 people.

The Constitution forbids Trump from being elected president again, but that hasn't stopped him from floating the idea with an endless stream of "jokes" about a 2028 run. Charlamagne Tha God looks at how Republicans are giving Trump cover by shrugging off his third-term talk as playful trolling, all while refusing to state whether they think he's bound by the 22nd Amendment.

Neil deGrasse Tyson, astrophysicist and best-selling author, sits down with Jordan Klepper to discuss alien etiquette and his new book, "Take Me to Your Leader: Perspectives on Your First Alien Encounter." They talk about what the Pentagon files mean for the reality of UFOs, leaving flat-earthers at home for your first extraterrestrial encounter, what movies and pop culture are getting wrong about alien depictions, and whether intelligent alien life would be interested in meeting Donald Trump.
