Very familiar. I've been following U.S. politics since the West Wing came out, was watching it religiously, and then started, you know, always reading about U.S. presidential history. I'm a U.S. president nerd. And The Daily Show, we were watching it as soon as we were able to illegally download it in Australia. We would torrent, like, The Daily Show and The Colbert Report and watch it.

So I'm a huge fan. I was watching all the time.

And then everyone applauds and I leave the studio. But he didn't do that this time.

He explained why he was leaving the show on air. And no sign of it. There was no sign. I didn't know he was doing that.

I don't know. He's a very smart guy and I trust his judgment on everything. And I'm sure he had his reasons, you know, and I can't speak to them, but I'm sure he had his reasons to do it because it seems like a pretty extreme thing to do.
