Jimmy O. Yang On Returning To Hong Kong After 25 Years In “Finally Home” | The Daily Show
Ronny Chieng and Jimmy O. Yang reconnect, recalling their first meeting on the Crazy Rich Asians set and Yang’s ongoing tension between acting and standup. They discuss Yang’s return to Hong Kong after 25 years — why he went back, selling out multiple arena shows, and the emotional, nostalgic tone of his new special, which he frames after finding a childhood diary written in Chinese and noting he has lost much of his Cantonese. Yang says he released the special in Hong Kong theaters rather than on a streamer. The two trade jokes about accents and language, reflect on collaborating on projects including Interior Chinatown, praise one another’s professionalism, recount a comedic on-set mixup involving an old car and a minor accident, and compare Asian and Western social media responses before closing with mutual appreciation and a plug for Finally Home.Episode guide

David Corn - Trump’s Man Crush On Putin & “How Russia Won” | The Daily Show
Journalist David Corn joins Stewart to discuss How Russia Won and his account of Trump's relationship with Vladimir Putin. Corn traces years of attempted business ties and political accommodation, arguing that Putin benefits from weakened Western alliances and internal divisions. Stewart tests alternative explanations, including Trump's preference for dealing personally with powerful leaders rather than democratic institutions. Their conversation contrasts a rules-based international order with a might-makes-right approach, then considers Ukraine negotiations and congressional Republicans' response. The interpretation of Trump's motives and Russia's success belongs to Corn and Stewart.Episode guide
Paris Protests Erupt Over High Fuel Costs & Trump Cuts Diesel Deal With Russia | The Daily Show
Jon Stewart begins with J.D. Vance's response to a question about anti-immigrant rhetoric, then contrasts it with Vance's explanation of unrest in France. Stewart argues that the protests are better understood through French political traditions and rising living costs. The monologue turns to diesel prices, the Iran and Ukraine wars, a reported Russian fuel deal and the administration's explanations for easing sanctions. A final satirical customer-service exchange examines restrictions on Ukraine's satellite communications. The episode uses news clips and jokes to criticize what Stewart sees as contradictory foreign and energy policies.Episode guide
