we must do the thing that you think we should do.

That's the most righteous thing or cover the most righteous stories.

And there are stories that we don't always get to, or we don't, we're not able to tackle with the same degree of depth as other shows.

And I think that's because we have to be funny first, like, you know, like watch vice news and then tell me how many of those stories are on us or Oliver or Jon Stewart over on Apple.

Like,

it's not going to be the same hit rate because we still have to be funny.

Now, Oliver and Stuart shows respectively go to different depths on particular problems than we do daily show.

We kind of have to hopscotch around.

So certain stuff, if it's a super nuanced issue, it's,

It may not be the right story for Trevor to carry at the desk.

It might have to go to a correspondent.

And so that becomes a whole nother set of, you know, planning and production.

But, you know, being on the show is definitely it's far more journalistic than anything I've ever done.

I'm definitely like when I first got there, I was like, oh, shit, I have to use my degree.

I have to.

think about what the story is, what we're trying to say.

And then also what is the funny way, you know, to go about talking about this thing?

Cause not everybody's going to like it.

Not everybody's going to agree either.

And that's the thing that's when we talk about like divisiveness and blind loyalty and politics, I think you're going to deal with that the same way you do in sports.
