AdvertisementIn a podcast appearance, Jon Stewart dismissed the idea that Democrats need their own Joe Rogan. Rogan, Stewart said, talks to everyone with curiosity, which Stewart suggested Dems need more of. Jon Stewart seems to think the idea that Democrats need their own Joe Rogan-type media personality to balance the podcast giant's support for President-elect Donald Trump is laughable. In a Thursday appearance on his "The Weekly Show" podcast, Stewart chuckled at a listener's question — relayed to him by his producer, Brittany Mehmedovic — about who the democrat version of Joe Rogan could be. Advertisement"I think that's oversimplifying Joe Rogan," Stewart said.

Some comics online did not specifically call out Hinchcliffe’s jokes at the rally but shared broader thoughts about comedians’ crossing the line. On an August episode of “The Joe Rogan Experience,” Rogan said Trump should hire Hinchcliffe to “write bangers” for him on the road. But Hinchcliffe’s joke about Puerto Rico landed poorly across both political parties. While most comedians did not come to Hinchcliffe’s defense, “The Daily Show” host Jon Stewart said such jokes should have been expected from a comedian like Hinchcliffe. But with Hinchcliffe’s joke, she said, “it almost just felt like he was saying, ‘I don’t like Puerto Ricans,’ which is so clearly offensive.

New York CNN —Jon Stewart is extending his time in the hosting chair at “The Daily Show” through December 2025. In 2015, Stewart parted ways with “The Daily Show,” after 16 years in the hosting chair, and was followed by Trevor Noah, who hosted the show through 2022. Stewart’s initial return to “The Daily Show,” announced this January, came as the show looked to bolster its struggling ratings. The re-hire has largely paid off, with Stewart’s return consistently delivering higher ratings than the show has seen in recent years. Stewart’s return to Paramount Global has marked a major victory for the company as it looks to muscle up its streamer, Paramount+.
