The Interviews | Jacob Coxon, Aaron Sorkin, Sebastian Stan, Kyle MacLachlan

Catch all of the past week's great guests in one place. Jacob Coxon, a former Anthropic and OpenAI researcher who spoke out about the dangers of artificial intelligence, opens up to Jon Stewart about the grim reality of the tech industry— from malicious hacks to potential biological attacks. The two discuss the future, AI-led utopia that tech companies are trying to sell us, the megalomania and riskiness that underlie the industry, and the terrifying capabilities Coxon witnessed while training AI models at Anthropic and OpenAI. Academy Award-winning screenwriter Aaron Sorkin sits down with Michael Kosta to discuss writing and directing his new film, "The Social Reckoning." Sorkin discusses revisiting Mark Zuckerberg as an anti-hero 16 years after “The Social Network,” balancing his role as both writer and director of the film, and recounting how intense physicality during the writing process once landed him in the hospital with a broken nose. Sebastian Stan sits down with Michael to talk about the Palme d'Or-winning film “Fjord,” which explores the story of an immigrant family in Norway whose children are taken away by authorities who believe they’re acting for the right reasons. Stan opens up about his personal connections to the film, leaving Romania at the age of eight, and reconnecting with the country he left behind. Plus, Kosta talks about Stan’s eclectic career choices, from the Marvel Cinematic Universe to playing President Donald Trump. Emmy-nominated and Golden Globe-winning actor Kyle MacLachlan joins Michael to discuss his bestselling memoir, "Fictional Selves." MacLachlan opens up about bouncing back from a disappointing debut in the 1984 version of “Dune,” the tight-knit relationship he developed with director David Lynch throughout his career, his most iconic roles from “Sex and the City” to “Showgirls,” and the surprising, industry-changing success of “Twin Peaks.” Plus, hear about the wine label MacLachlan started with his dad and how he learned to navigate Hollywood and advocate for himself on set. -- The Daily Show airs weeknights at 11/10c on Comedy Central.

Kimberly Guilfoyle Caught Begging Trump Donor to Pay Her $100K Amex Bill | Kyle MacLachlan

Kimberly Guilfoyle takes a page out of the Trump corruption playbook by reportedly demanding a $100,000 Amex payment from pizza exec Eric Deters, who found himself disappointed when she didn't get his s**tty music into the hands of MAGA loyalist Kid Rock. This was apparently the last straw that led Deters to rat her out, which has Michael Kosta wondering how to know who can give you the best value for your bribe. Trump's plan to build 27 miles of border wall in Arizona's San Rafael Valley is aimed at keeping immigrants out, but it comes with one major complication: How are the local jaguars supposed to f**k? Grace Kuhlenschmidt traveled to Arizona to see how this wall controversy is playing out on the ground, hearing from environmental activist Russ McSpadden and a host of locals and officials whose opinions range from "It's just damn sad" to "And?" Emmy-nominated and Golden Globe-winning actor Kyle MacLachlan joins Michael to discuss his bestselling memoir, "Fictional Selves." MacLachlan opens up about bouncing back from a disappointing debut in the 1984 version of “Dune,” the tight-knit relationship he developed with director David Lynch throughout his career, his most iconic roles from “Sex and the City” to “Showgirls,” and the surprising, industry-changing success of “Twin Peaks.” Plus, hear about the wine label MacLachlan started with his dad and how he learned to navigate Hollywood and advocate for himself on set. -- Go to https://Quince.com/dailyshow for free shipping on your order and 365-day returns. -- https://homeserve.com/tds -- The Daily Show airs weeknights at 11/10c on Comedy Central.

Russia's Plague Scare and America's Sinkholes Ruin Kosta’s Quarantine Plans | Sebastian Stan

Michael Kosta dives into the various disasters plotting to kill humanity, from sneaky sinkholes devouring cars, to widespread frozen food contamination, to a possible plague outbreak in Russia. And if Trump’s elevated scientific language is a litmus test of concern, we’re f**ked. Plus, Josh Johnson weighs the pros and cons of grisly death over another round of quarantine hobbies. Lewis Black has no problem with the whole dying thing, but not everyone shares his passionate yearning for the bright light. In this edition of Back in Black, Lewis looks at how anti-aging biohackers are doing everything they can to delay the inevitable, from tech tycoon Bryan Johnson getting injected with his son's plasma to TikTokers sleeping 12 hours a night and eating "organ meats." Sebastian Stan sits down with Michael to talk about the Palme d'Or-winning film “Fjord,” which explores the story of an immigrant family in Norway whose children are taken away by authorities who believe they’re acting for the right reasons.

Ramaswamy Nearly Drops a Kid, Paxton's Ad Backfires & Trump Wants to Fix Your Clock | Aaron Sorkin

Michael Kosta breaks down the headlines as the GOP struggles ahead of the midterms: Texas Senate candidate Ken Paxton drops an ad boasting that he tears down posters of missing children, Ohio gubernatorial candidate Vivek Ramaswamy almost drops a literal child at a campaign rally, and Trump is no help to his flailing party as he focuses on “red-dye diesel” and the inconvenience of daylight saving time.

The Interviews | Evan Gershkovich, Marlon James, CMAT, John Wilson

Catch all of the past week's great guests in one place.  Wall Street Journal foreign correspondent Evan Gershkovich joins Jon Stewart to talk about his new memoir, “This Cursed Beautiful Land: A Russian-American Story.” Gershkovich, who spent 16 months imprisoned in Russia on false espionage charges, breaks down how a source, a second meeting, and a Putin pep talk to the FSB landed him in Russian prison. He discusses growing up in a Russian-speaking home, what drew him to reporting in Russia, life pre-imprisonment, and how he ultimately became a bargaining chip in a Putin-led prisoner swap scheme. He also weighs in on what a post-Putin Russia might look like and the totalitarian warning signs he sees in the U.S. Booker Prize-winning and bestselling author Marlon James sits down with Jordan Klepper to discuss his new novel “The Disappearers," which The New York Times called "the novel of the decade, if not the century.” James discusses his childhood in Jamaica, where he hid his sexuality by learning to disappear; his use of violence and sex in his work; and literature’s role in keeping a historical record for those typically erased from mainstream history. Irish musician CMAT joins Jordan to discuss her acclaimed third album, “Euro-Country.” They talk about how she weaves profound lyricism with Western melodies, what it means for her music to embody “funeral humor,” why the Irish psyche loves country music, and how the title track examines the repercussions of politicians’ actions. John Wilson joins Jordan to discuss his new documentary, “The History of Concrete.” The creator of “How To with John Wilson” shares how he finds beauty in the mundane through his unique shooting and editing style, how he scored an uninterrupted shot of Kim Kardashian at a fancy dinner party, and what happens when you spend your entire film budget on a creepy wax museum in Rome. Jordan also pitches an idea for Wilson’s next documentary project. -- The Daily Show airs weeknights at 11/10c on Comedy Central.

Pete Hegseth Purges Weirdos and Wimps & Trump Drops a New Hispanic Stereotype | John Wilson

Jordan Klepper gets into the headlines: Famously pro-Hispanic President Trump hosts a Hispanic Heritage Month event at the White House, and even invents a new stereotype to honor the occasion! Pete Hegseth purges the U.S. military's “beardos, weirdos, wimps, and radicals,” which has us wondering where that leaves… most of his fellow cabinet members. Plus, Josh Johnson comes to us live from the Pentagon with exciting updates from Hegseth’s star-studded team tasked with studying the future of warfare. In this installment of In My Opinion, Nick Offerman dives into Gen Z's technology problem, as young people are now spending over six hours a day on their phones and having less sex than previous generations. But Offerman is happy to report that they’ve found a simple, low-tech antidote to this technological albatross: hobbies! From pottery to birdwatching to collecting miniatures, Gen Z is leaning into the joy of hobbies as a respite from a tech world supercharged by AI. And as one of America's premier hobbyists, Offerman couldn't be prouder. John Wilson joins Jordan to discuss his new documentary, “The History of Concrete.” The creator of “How To with John Wilson” shares how he finds beauty in the mundane through his unique shooting and editing style, how he scored an uninterrupted shot of Kim Kardashian at a fancy dinner party, and what happens when you spend your entire film budget on a creepy wax museum in Rome.

AI Leaders Sign Trump's "Self-Policing" Pact & Eric Schmitt's Ambush Backfires | CMAT

Plus, former Trump prosecutor Jack Smith appears before the Senate to answer questions about his “misconduct,” and Republican Sen. Eric Schmitt falls on his proverbial ass on live TV when his ambush of Smith backfires spectacularly. By the way, did anyone see that Atlanta Hawks game? Neither did Jack Smith.

GOP Pushes for DEI in Welfare-to-Work Ad & Trump Launches America.gov AI | Marlon James

Trump runs a taxpayer-funded ad that infuriates liberals, and Arkansas Gov. Sarah Huckabee Sanders runs an ad that is TOO white for conservatives? Maybe they’re finally getting behind DEI. Jordan Klepper dives into the political ad controversy as well as some exciting announcements from the Trump administration: You can now apply for your first passport entirely online and ask the America.gov AI chatbot for help remembering your Social Security number! Plus, Klepper chats with the star of Huckabee Sanders’s controversial ad: Brad (Grace Kuhlenschmidt). As America celebrates its 250th, we must also remember all the great Americans we lost along the way. Jordan enlists Michael Kosta to do the honors with America 250: In Memoriam.

Will Republicans Divorce Trump Over Xi Embrace? Probably Not | Evan Gershkovich

Jon Stewart examines the limits of Republican allegiance to Trump after his weekend of wooing President Xi with granite, helipads, and an exclusive tour of the White House ballroom. Will MAGA loyalists denounce Trump's offer to sell weapons to China, America's supposed enemy, or is their frustration with the president a Susan Collins-style display of feigned outrage?

Catch all of the past week's great guests in one place. Ari Emanuel, of TKO and WME Group, sits down with Jon Stewart to discuss his new memoir, “Roll the Calls.” The two discuss what Emanuel has learned over his legendary career: how to advocate for himself despite his dyslexia, how to channel anger and ego into a successful business, and how to stand up for the values you believe in. Plus, hear why Emanuel thinks his brother Rahm would be an incredible president— even though he’s NOT running. Grammy-winning artist Tom Morello sits down with Desi Lydic to discuss his new solo album, “Everyone Gets Everything They Want.” Morello shares how this is the heaviest thing he’s made since the first Rage Against the Machine album, how he lured his 15-year-old son, Roman, into a guitar career using “Stairway to Heaven” and how Roman ended up co-writing five songs on the album. He also discusses his upcoming festival, Power to the People, and credits his late activist mother, Mary, as the reason he believes every guitar riff can be an act of resistance. Jessica Tarlov, co-host of "The Five" on Fox News and the "Raging Moderates" podcast, joins Desi to chat about her new book "I Disagree: Winning Arguments Without Losing Friends." The pair discuss going toe-to-toe with co-hosts across the aisle, taking criticism in stride (especially from the president), and how the first step to changing minds is opening doors.

Three-time Emmy winner Merritt Wever sits down with Desi to discuss her new film, “Primetime,” the story of Chris Hansen and “To Catch a Predator.” They talk about her first Daily Show audience-member experience, how Edie Falco became her “acting mom,” and the story behind her viral, emotionally honest first Emmy acceptance speech. Plus, Wever explains how she dove into her “Primetime” character by learning the art of “host finagling” from veteran TV producers and exploring what happens when news, entertainment, and law enforcement get entangled. -- The Daily Show airs weeknights at 11/10c on Comedy Central.

Trump Can’t Find Rubio, Pirro Tackles Meteorite Corruption & Melania Gets a Sequel | Jessica Tarlov

Trump can’t find Marco Rubio during his U.N. speech, and Jeanine Pirro seizes a Martian meteorite for some reason (shouldn’t that be the Space Force’s job?). Desi Lydic breaks down the headlines, including a BIG week for First Lady Melania Trump, who’s launching her second documentary passion project and putting Brian Kilmeade to sleep in the process. Michael Kosta plunges into the latest batch of midterm candidates caught up in scandal: Florida congressional hopeful Te Brown tries to lay low from the cops while running for office in two different states, New York candidate Chris Gallant's bondage pics put him in a bind, Michigan salsa entrepreneur Tom Smith takes heat for his far-right tweets, and Ohio's Brian Poindexter allegedly tried to swallow a crack rock at a traffic stop.

Trump Talks S**t at the U.N., Rebrands AI as "Superintelligence" & Praises Mamdani | Tom Morello

Desi Lydic dives into the headlines with Trump’s press ban leaving him speechless (literally, he has no mic anymore). Plus, "AI" is out and “super intelligence” is in as the president coins a new term for his favorite humanity-threatening technology. And at the U.N., Trump’s passion for AI and starting beef come together as he dunks on other countries (and CNN), though by the looks of things, their delegates couldn’t care less. Either way, at least he still got to bro out with his favorite socialist Zohran Mamdani before leaving NYC. The great thing about America is anyone can run for office, and no one exemplifies that more than John Alite, a former mob enforcer turned New Jersey councilman. After doing time for "every crime you could think about," Alite turned his back on his hitman days and became a public servant in Englishtown, NJ. Josh Johnson had a sit-down with Alite to see how his extensive resume of bad deeds puts him in a unique position to do some good for his fellow New Jerseyans, and to find out whether this goodfella's redemption story is too good to be true. Grammy-winning artist Tom Morello sits down with Desi to discuss his new solo album, “Everyone Gets Everything They Want.” Morello shares how this is the heaviest thing he’s made since the first Rage Against the Machine album, how he lured his 15-year-old son, Roman, into a guitar career using “Stairway to Heaven” and how Roman ended up co-writing five songs on the album.

The Interviews | Danielle Brooks, Colin Kaepernick, Giri Nathan

Check out all of this week's great guests in one place. Danielle Brooks joins Josh Johnson to talk about her new film, “If I Go Will They Miss Me,” where she plays Lozita, a mother caught between a son who worships his father like a God and a dad who can’t see himself that way. Brooks talks about shooting on-location in Watts, honoring the real woman her character is inspired by, and what motherhood has taught her about the roles she takes. Super Bowl quarterback, civil rights activist, and bestselling author Colin Kaepernick joins Josh Johnson to discuss his new memoir, "The Perilous Fight." They reflect on the 10-year anniversary of Kaepernick's kneeling during the national anthem to protest racial injustice and police brutality, the idea that activism doesn't need to be earned, it's required for society to work, and a reframing of risk assessment in activism that asks, "What do we risk if we don't take action?" Defector Media staff writer & cofounder and bestselling author, Giri Nathan, sits down with Michael Kosta to discuss his book “Changeover: A Young Rivalry and a New Era of Men's Tennis," about the rise and rivalry of pro tennis players Carlos Alcaraz and Jannik Sinner. The two tennis superfans review this year’s U.S. Open, discussing Honey Deuce towers, influencer drama, and both the men’s and women’s finals. Plus, how the USTA can grow tennis fandom while preserving the sport’s spectacle and tradition. -- The Daily Show airs weeknights at 11/10c on Comedy Central.

Iran War Closes Another Strait & Mamdani Debuts 10-Minute Toilets in NYC | Giri Nathan

Mayor Zohran Mamdani is expanding NYC’s public restrooms, which is good because the war in Iran is once again going to s**t.

Plus, move over, Strait of Hormuz: a hot, new, geopolitically tense strait has entered the villa. Ronny Chieng and Michael Kosta butt heads over the biggest sports stories of the day: NY Giants quarterback Jameis Winston goes on a cologne-spritzing spree in the locker room, Sydney Sweeney takes heat for her naked Novig sports betting ad, and an Australian athlete becomes the Usain Bolt of sharting, in the latest edition of Sports War.

Kash Patel Gets Tangled in Bestiality Questions & Don Jr. Gets a Blushing Bribe | Colin Kaepernick

Pete Hegseth seeks troops with the perfect waist-to-height ratio to serve as props for his speech, and Kash Patel defends new FBI hiring standards that take a softer stance on bestiality. Plus, Josh Johnson dives into the details of Don Jr.'s Russian-funded wedding, while Don Jr.'s new wife steps in to share that the whole wedding wasn’t a bribe; only half of it was. With the U.S. and Canada mired in a full-blown trade war, Ronny Chieng pays a visit to a Canadian bar in New York City to find out how America's neighbors to the north are feeling about the unhinged bully to their south. And as it turns out, between Trump's punishing tariffs and the notion of becoming America's 51st state, the whole thing is enough to make a Canadian utter the friendliest "f**k off" ever. Super Bowl quarterback, civil rights activist, and bestselling author Colin Kaepernick joins Josh Johnson to discuss his new memoir, "The Perilous Fight."

Mitch McConnell Returns & Trump Dismisses AI Doomsday Warnings | Danielle Brooks

Mitch McConnell dispels rumors about his death just in time for Anthropic insiders to announce that AI could kill us all in as little as six months. Thumbs up, Mitch! Josh Johnson dives into the headlines, including Trump’s answer to the urgent threat of AI: Everything will be fine as long as we have a “high IQ president." Which might be a problem. Can solar geoengineering cool the planet? Michael Kosta sits down with Make Sunsets founder Luke Iseman, who's taking the fight to climate change with the power of sulphur-filled balloons. But will Iseman's approach really deflate the climate crisis, or is he just high on his own supply? With the help of climate experts Shuchi Talati and David Keith, Kosta stops at nothing to get to the bottom of this, even if it means channeling his inner Walter White. Danielle Brooks joins Josh Johnson to talk about her new film, “If I Go Will They Miss Me,” where she plays Lozita, a mother caught between a son who worships his father like a God and a dad who can’t see himself that way.

This Week's Interviews | Gov. Spencer Cox, Jia Tolentino, Andrew Garfield

Check out all of this week's great guests. Republican Governor Spencer Cox joins Jon Stewart to discuss his new book, “Off Ramp: How to Be a Peacemaker in an Age of Contempt,” and reveals how the assassination of Charlie Kirk in his home state of Utah pushed him to finish writing it. Gov. Cox believes genuine, good-faith debate is the only way out of America’s polarization crisis and explains how Utah’s handling of religious freedom and LGBTQ+ rights shows that opposing sides can find common ground. Jon debates the governor over whether the solution to America’s polarization starts with individuals talking to each other or with the system itself changing first. Michael Kosta sits down with best-selling author and New Yorker staff writer Jia Tolentino to chat about her latest piece, "Our Plastic-Surgery Nightmare.” The two discuss “Instagram face,” a term Tolentino coined in 2019, and how social media algorithms, AI, and big tech are tainting our perception of beauty. Tony Award-winning and Oscar-nominated actor Andrew Garfield sits down with Michael Kosta to discuss his new film, “The Uprising.” They talk about how the peasant uprising of 1381 serves as a “long-distance mirror” to the political landscape of today, how acting serves as an empathy machine even when playing characters like Sam Altman, and what young men can learn from Carlos Alcaraz’s elegant U.S. Open loss. -- The Daily Show airs weeknights at 11/10c on Comedy Central.

Trump Bribes Americans with $5K "Dividends" & GOP Gets Weird at Midterm Convention | Andrew Garfield

Trump’s Republican Midterm Convention flops with low turnout, empty promises, and GOP behavior that is just straight up weird (we’re looking at you, Tim Scott). Michael Kosta dives into the highlights, including Trump’s pledge to give out $5,000 "dividends" if the GOP wins the House and Senate, the president's unhelpful roast of Texas Senate candidate Ken Paxton, and an onstage gavel that is just… too big. Plus, Desi Lydic hypes up the convention to Kosta, and even throws in some hand stuff.   Troy Iwata rounds up the latest international headlines that prove America isn't the only country with problems: British kids line up for a Titanic-themed slide, an Italian man gets busted for peddling a fake ancient theater, and Hitler's birthplace finds new life as a police station, in another edition of So Not Our Problem!

GOP RSVP's "No" to Trump Convention & Push to Ban Mamdani from 9/11 Ceremony | Jia Tolentino

Michael Kosta dives into the Trump-headlined Republican Midterm Convention in Dallas and the growing list of GOP candidates making excuses not to attend. Plus, J.D. Vance “celebrates” the 25th anniversary of 9/11, and Jordan Klepper weighs in on Mayor Mamdani’s commemorations, including his symbolic (and HIGHLY suspicious) pen antics. Josh Johnson takes a deep dive into the bizarre story of Daejon Love, a man arrested for allegedly scamming women out of $1.3 million by posing as a wide receiver for the San Francisco 49ers. Josh marvels at the lengths Love went to maintain his fake NFL persona, from sharing sloppy "training" videos to conspicuously carrying his helmet at the beach, and proposes a novel punishment that fits the crime.

Jon on Trump's Meme Assault on Canada & the Alternate Reality He's Constructed | Gov. Spencer Cox
