Michael sits down with comedy legend and Emmy-nominated actor Molly Shannon to discuss her new Netflix series, “The Hawk.” They get into her close-knit relationship with co-star Will Ferrell, how a traumatic childhood car crash informed her reckless style of physical comedy, and all the odd jobs she had before landing “Saturday Night Live.” Plus, Kosta shares what he took away from Shannon’s powerful memoir and asks what advice she has for young people. -- New customers can save 35% on your first month of subscription by going to https://dosedaily.co/TDS or entering TDS at checkout.

Michael Kosta dives into Trump’s busy schedule: hosting an IndyCar event, providing a totally legit medical explanation for how part of Lindsey Graham “blew up,” and reigniting the war in Iran over tolls for the Strait of Hormuz. Plus, Graham’s successor is confirmed, and although she's his sister, she might be America's most qualified senator. The Daily Show counts down the greatest moments in America's 250-year history, from the Declaration of Independence to winning World War II to the time Lenny Kravitz's d**k fell out on stage and changed American history forever. Financial literacy expert and author Beth Kobliner joins Michael to discuss her New York Times bestseller, now in its 5th edition, “Get a Financial Life: Personal Finance in Your Twenties and Thirties." They talk about only half the country requiring high schools to teach personal finance, despite the programs fostering the financial literacy needed to improve credit scores and manage debt. Kobliner effortlessly explains high-yield savings accounts and investing, why retirement accounts should be renamed “super smart investment accounts,” and how getting your finances together is easier than banks and investment companies want you to think. Plus, Kosta asks questions from “broke Daily Show staff” like whether robbing a bank is a viable retirement strategy and whether Gen Z will ever own a home. -- New customers can save 35% on your first month of subscription by going to https://dosedaily.co/TDS or entering TDS at checkout.

Senator Lindsey Graham’s sudden death prompts Jon Stewart to dive into the gerontocracy problem in Washington, D.C., Trump’s backhanded tribute to his deceased “friend,” the bucket list that Graham never got to complete, and how Mitch McConnell somehow managed to outlive his colleague from South Carolina. Oscar-winning director, writer, and producer Christopher Nolan sits down with Jon to discuss his new film, "The Odyssey." They talk about "Oppenheimer" paving the way for "The Odyssey" to be made, Nolan's process of constructing movies through diagrams and structures, his embrace of the fantastical while showing respect to the film's source material, and finishing ahead of schedule despite filming with an IMAX camera in three-minute increments. -- CarShield is offering our listeners 20% off with the code TDS at https://CarShield.com/TDS New customers can save 35% on your first month of subscription by going to https://dosedaily.co/TDS or entering TDS at checkout. -- The Daily Show airs weeknights at 11/10c on Comedy Central.

The two also weigh in on the current state of the U.S.-Iran conflict, the Trump administration's substance-free approach to governance, and how male body insecurity is manifesting itself in bizarre trends like "ballmaxxing."  -- CarShield is offering our listeners 20% off with the code TDS at https://CarShield.com/TDS New customers can save 35% on your first month of subscription by going to https://dosedaily.co/TDS or entering TDS at checkout. -- The Daily Show airs weeknights at 11/10c on Comedy Central.

Get caught up on all the latest headlines with Ronny Chieng in This Week's News. Ronny weighs in on America's 250th birthday celebration, which included a crashing skydiver and a rambling speech from Trump about American inventions, and covers the president's bridge-burning NATO trip that coincided with the end of his ceasefire with Iran.

Ronny Chieng dives into Trump having to put his pre-owned, Qatar-gifted Air Force One in the shop due to security concerns, and Graham Platner drops out of the Maine Senate race in disgrace but still wants a say in his replacement (and sorry, it won't be Patrick Dempsey). Plus, as Democrats scramble to find another bro-ified candidate for Maine, Desi Lydic throws her trucker hat in the ring. AI is disrupting everything, including the midterms, and Jordan Klepper breaks down how politicians are harnessing the world's most annoying technology to smear their opponents, depict themselves as superheroes, and even engage in some good old-fashioned pandering by making it look like they have lots of Black friends. Comedian and actor Aaron Chen joins Ronny to discuss his new Apple TV comedy film, "The Dink." They talk about meeting when Aaron was 16 years old in the Australian comedy world, ushering in a new era of sports comedies with greats like Jake Johnson, Ben Stiller, and Mary Steenburgen, and teaching tennis champ Andy Roddick everything to know about acting for his film debut. -- CarShield is offering our listeners 20% off with the code TDS at https://CarShield.com/TDS -- The Daily Show airs weeknights at 11/10c on Comedy Central.

Ronny Chieng dives into Trump's appearance at the NATO summit "love-fest," where he picked new fights with Spain and Denmark, converted Japan into an Islamic Republic, and bemoaned his on-again, off-again ceasefire with Iran. Sen. Mitch McConnell's three-week absence has led many to wonder if he's even alive, but CNN's Scott Jennings put that question to rest with a totally believable claim that he chatted with the senator for an oddly specific 17 minutes. (tag)Michael Kosta went to the hospital where McConnell is staying to get the truth from the man himself, and defends the perfectly not-dead senator against a skeptical Ronny. Mayor Aftab Pureval, Cincinnati’s 70th mayor, joins Ronny Chieng to discuss the unique position of mayors in enacting local change. They talk about being a mayor of color of a Democratic city in a red state, balancing long- and short-term solutions as a politician and a statesman, distinguishing the no-nonsense nature of local vs. federal politics, and feeling frustrated with the Democratic establishment and calling for “a new generation of leadership.” -- CarShield is offering our listeners 20% off with the code TDS at https://CarShield.com/TDS Go to https://Quince.com/dailyshow for free shipping on your order and 365-day returns.

Ronny Chieng covers America’s 250th birthday festivities, which included Trump rattling off a list of U.S. inventions and a skydiver crashing to the music of "God Bless the U.S.A." Plus, the president couldn’t help but meddle in the FIFA World Cup, where he personally intervened to challenge a red card against the U.S., accidentally defended birthright citizenship in the process, and got mocked by Belgian players doing his infamous "YMCA" dance. Grace Kuhlenschmidt plugs into the biggest headlines in tech: A robotic dog comes equipped with a flamethrower, a self-scooting robo toilet lets you go while on the go, a new delivery app delivers nothing but dopamine, and "actor" Tilly Norwood lands a feature role in an AI coming-of-age film. Author Ann M. Martin sits down with “The Baby-sitters Club” superfan, Ronny, to celebrate the 40th anniversary of her iconic series and the new book, “The Baby-Sitters Club Fan Edition: Baby-Sitter Summer.” Ronny shares how his older sister would read him the books as a kid, and finally asks his most anticipated questions about the series that were left unanswered. They also discuss her secret to getting kids to read, and the “Baby-sitter’s Club” musical in the works with music by KPop Demon Hunters’ Mark Sonnenblick. -- To get simple, online access to personalized, affordable care for ED, Hair Loss, Weight Loss, and more, visit ⁠https://Hims.com/dailyshow⁠ --Go to https://Quince.com/dailyshow for free shipping on your order and 365-day returns. -- Head to ⁠https://Superpower.com⁠ and use code TDS at checkout for $20 off your membership.

Happy Birthday, America! Ring in the Fourth of July with The Daily Show's coverage of the weirdest party the USA has ever thrown itself, as Donald Trump turns America’s upcoming 250th birthday into a self-glorifying spectacle. Nick Offerman jokes about Trump-branded currency, coins, park passes, and a proposed “Arc de Trump.” Jordan Klepper attends the UFC fight spectacle held on the White House lawn on Donald Trump's birthday. Jon Stewart catches up on the calamitous planning of the Great American State Fair, and the fallout as musicians cancel en mass. Troy Iwata asks Americans what to put in a mandated national time capsule. Ronny Chieng introduces a biography of the one thing all Americans can still get behind: the 1992 US Olympic men's basketball Dream Team. And Jon, still in the afterglow of the Knicks big win, contrasts Trump’s gaudy “arch” and UFC spectacle with Americans’ unmet desire for healthcare and genuine community. -- CarShield is offering our listeners 20% off with the code TDS at https://CarShield.com/TDS -- Head to https://Superpower.com and use code TDS at checkout for $20 off your membership.

Josh Johnson investigates the bright green water taking over the Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool, which the president responded to by installing security cameras to hunt down potential pool "vandals."

Josh Johnson plunges into World Cup visitors' obsession with ranch dressing, Zohran Mamdani’s new “kingmaker” status after his endorsements swept the NY primaries, Trump using his congratulatory tweet to Mamdani to brag about his own endorsements of MAGA rapper Anthony Constantino and indicted fraudster Ken Paxton, and the difference between endorsing loyalists vs. committed public servants. In an age when oligarchs are maximizing profits at the expense of workers, billionaire John Paulson has stood out as a sworn enemy of offshoring American jobs. But now he appears to be singing a different tune, as Paulson's Conn Selmer brass instrument plant is gearing up to send its operations to China. Troy Iwata meets with union leader and Conn Selmer employee Robert Hines to find out what he and his fellow workers are doing to protect their jobs from the sad trombone of unemployment. Comedian, rapper, and actor Jay Pharoah sits down with Josh to discuss his new album, “The Odyssey,” and hosting the Fox game show “The Quiz with Balls.” He shares how “The Odyssey” materialized over 10 years, how he wrote it about another dimension where he has the power to save planet Earth, and what happens on “The Quiz with Balls” when contestants don’t fall in. Plus, Jay performs a table read of Josh’s political drama, impersonating Donald Trump, Barack Obama, Bill Clinton, Patrick Mahomes, and even Josh himself. -- The Daily Show airs weeknights at 11/10c on Comedy Central.

Josh Johnson dives into the Scottish takeover of Miami for the World Cup, the flock of tourists visiting D.C.'s bright green reflecting pool, Trump’s security escalation to catch possible pool “vandals,” and whether Trump's pool disaster is karma for trashing Obama’s previous reflecting pool fix. Plus, conservative media can’t stop talking about the pool, while Michael Kosta can’t stop dreaming about drinking it. Summer is here, and Lewis Black kicks it off with a look at some of the dumbest and most dangerous fitness trends of the season: sword yoga, which combines the health benefits of yoga with the hazard of lopping off a body part, neck hanging, which is turning Chinese youth into Christmas tree ornaments, and pistols and Pilates, the perfect workout for anyone whose fitness routine needs more guns. Tony, Emmy, and Golden Globe-nominated actor Lou Diamond Phillips talks to Josh Johnson about starring in the new film “Gangland.” They discuss what draws him to making westerns and how this film shows an evolution of the neo-western genre by centering Indigenous stories and talent, both in front of and behind the camera. Phillips also shares what still excites him about the creative process as an actor, speaks to his mission as a recently re-elected governor of the Actors Branch of The Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences to seek out and uplift new talent, and encourages young artists not to build their careers on fleeting trends that might be a “foundation of sand.” -- The Daily Show airs weeknights at 11/10c on Comedy Central.

Jon Stewart dives into Trump's talent for breaking what ain't broke, from throwing one of his cronies $1.7 million in taxpayer money to clean the D.C reflecting pool (which quickly went from "American Flag Blue" to Mountain Dew green) to launching an aggressive war on Iran with the goal of re-obliterating their nuclear program but instead settling on a gentle parenting-style deal that lets Iran keep their nukes, along with a few hundred billion dollars. Trump was not in the room when his own team discussed the Epstein files, is just one of the few pieces uncovered in Maggie Haberman and Jonathan Swan’s new book, “Regime Change: Inside the Imperial Presidency of Donald Trump.” They sat down with Jon to compare Trump’s first and second terms as president, how Trump controls the terms when reporters reach him on his cell phone, and what they uncovered behind his most controversial acts like the tariff policy rollout and the Iran War. They describe his second term as a story of hubris, built on gut feelings and belief from his cabinet that he is someone of destiny because who else can survive four indictments, two assassination attempts to win the presidency a second time.  -- The Daily Show airs weeknights at 11/10c on Comedy Central.

This week's host Josh Johnson sits down with Daily Show writer Randall Otis to recap the latest news, and preview the week to come. They talk Trump's algae-infested reflecting pool as a reflection of America's decline, their shared anxiety over the outcome of the Iran War, and the terminal awkwardness of JD Vance. Plus, Josh laments his lack of a basic sense of direction, and Randall confesses to being a bit clueless when it comes to colors. -- The Daily Show airs weeknights at 11/10c on Comedy Central.
