Description

Jordan Klepper sits down with Daily Show writer Scott Hercman to discuss Trump's boredom with his own war in Iran, the never-ending construction zone formerly known as the White House, the president's upcoming CEO-studded visit to China, the Pentagon's UFO file dump, and whether a hantavirus outbreak on a cruise ship is worth worrying about. Plus, Jordan looks back on how Daily Show writers utilized his "gangly weirdness" to produce peak physical comedy during his early days on the show. #DailyShow #JordanKlepper #Podcast #UFO Subscribe to The Daily Show: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCwWhs_6x42TyRM4Wstoq8HA/?sub_confirmation=1 Follow The Daily Show: Twitter: https://twitter.com/TheDailyShow Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/thedailyshow Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/thedailyshow Stream full episodes of The Daily Show on Paramount+: http://www.paramountplus.com/thedailyshow Follow Comedy Central: Twitter: https://twitter.com/ComedyCentral Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/ComedyCentral Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/comedycentral About The Daily Show: Jon Stewart and The Best F**king News Team host The Daily Show, an Emmy and Peabody Award-winning program analyzing the biggest stories in news, politics, and culture through a sharp, satirical lens.

Sweethearts - not a waffle iron! It’s a clothes iron. Unintentionally very funny that a man wouldn’t know the difference.

"I cannot talk to Jordan because he's too tall" Doesn't matter how nice he is, being tall intimidates _everyone_
