Josh Johnson gives a progress report on Trump's first year in office based on his campaign pledges to generate more jobs, make Americans rich, improve healthcare, and protect free speech. Naturally, the only person to benefit from these promises is Trump, who now has everything but a normal-looking hand. Lewis Black takes on Gen Z's nostalgic penchant for the past and the ridiculous "throwback" fads the younger generation is reviving, including cigarette smoking, "dumb phones" to help them think thoughts, tramp stamps, and the mall. Emmy award-winning documentarian Alexandria Stapleton talks to Josh Johnson about producing and directing the Netflix docuseries, "Sean Combs: The Reckoning", including her shared concern with producing partner Curtis "50 Cent" Jackson not to indict the entire Hip-Hop culture along with the music mogul & how the sense of trepidation among the documentary crew & interview participants has shifted since the release of the series and the arrest of Sean Combs.

The Daily Show Show Summary

Forget the 24 hour biased left wing news media, the best fake news show in the world will provide you with all the news you can handle.

If you're tired of the stodginess of the evening newscasts, if you can't bear to sit through the spinmeisters and shills on the 24-hour cable news networks, don't miss The Daily Show with Trevor Noah, a nightly half-hour series unburdened by objectivity, journalistic integrity, or even accuracy. The Emmy and Peabody Award-winning Daily Show takes a reality-based look at news, trends, pop culture, current events, politics, sports and entertainment with an alternative point of view.

In each show anchorman Trevor Noah and a team of correspondents comment on the day's stories, employing actual news footage, taped field pieces, in-studio guests and on-the-spot coverage of important news events and finally interviews with guest celebrities and political figures.
