Hail Satire! With Vic Shuttee

APRIL 9, 2017 - It's THE DAILY SHOW WEEKLY PODCAST, a rewatch hosted by Vic Shuttee (@VicShuttee) and Chandler Dean (@chandlerjdean)! It was the Thursday cultural roller-coaster that’s become oh-so common in the age of Trump but man – but in the AM, Judge Gorsuch is confirmed after a GOP dismantles the Senate Filibuster rule, at lunch comedy legend Don Rickles kicks the bucket at age 90 and by nightfall, Trump is bombing ISIS forces in Syria and warning Russian agencies before asking Congress. Holy shit! By comparison, June ’99 is a cakewalk. It’s a fortnight of inspired segments and historical firsts (The birth of the Arby’s joke, amazingly, is NOT the biggest one!) Plus, Mo Rocca stokes a war between Garfield the cat the American Polka community, Natalie Portman aces Jon’s sneaky high school finals quiz and the first 17 weeks of Jon Stewart’s Daily Show are given the cliff-hanging season finale treatment they’ve always deserved. Patricia Richardson, Suzanne Somers, Jamie Foxx, Harry Connick Jr, Caroline Rhe
