Fauci Takes the 5th Amendment While MAGA Cracks His Diary Open & Calls Him Hitler | Theo Baker
Dr. Anthony Fauci testified before the Senate in the GOP's hyperpartisan investigation into his "megalomania" and alleged mishandling of Covid, despite the fact that Trump admitted to having “a lot of respect for Dr. Fauci” during the pandemic. Jordan Klepper gets into the hearing’s biggest moments, including Fauci repeatedly invoking the Fifth Amendment, Senator Josh Hawley invoking Fauci’s diary entries, and one Instagram commenter invoking the eggplant emoji. In honor of America's 250th birthday, Michael Kosta hit the streets of NYC to ask his fellow citizens a simple question: Who is the greatest American of all time? The answers poured in, and boy were they wrong. It's John Motherf**king Stamos! Luckily, Stamos himself happened to be there to help a starstruck Kosta set the record straight. Thanks, Uncle Jesse! Theo Baker, award-winning journalist and bestselling author of "How to Rule the World: An Education in Power at Stanford University,” chats with Jordan Klepper about his freshman year research misconduct investigation into Stanford University President Marc Tessier-Lavigne, which led to his resignation in 2023. They talk about Stanford’s “Faustian bargain” with Silicon Valley, the incredible money and power thrust into undergraduates’ hands, and how Baker convinced sources to tell a teenager their secrets. -- New customers can save 35% on your first month of subscription by going to https://dosedaily.co/TDS or entering TDS at checkout. -- The Daily Show airs weeknights at 11/10c on Comedy Central.

Plus, Troy Iwata comes to us live from Lindsey Graham's heaven, which looks suspiciously like Mar-a-Lago.

Trump Gets Called "Pedophile Protector" AGAIN & Mexico Gets a New Pronunciation | Jeff Hiller
Jordan Klepper dives into Trump getting called a pedophile protector AGAIN while speaking at a General Motors facility in Michigan, why the president decided to pronounce Mexico as "Meheho," the new tariffs on Canada that ruined the opening of the Gordie Howe International Bridge, and how the Trump administration accidentally helped reimagine cocaine trafficking. Plus, Klepper visits a naked protest to find out if Antifa is dressed up as an inflatable frog. It's no secret that Americans are being recorded everywhere, all the time, but the reality is even worse than you might think. In this edition of Back in Black, Lewis Black zooms in on everyday surveillance, including creeps going viral for sneaking photos of women, kids using location-tracking apps to "fambush" their parents, and Kylie Jenner peddling her own line of fashion-forward AI glasses. Bestselling author, comedian and Emmy-winning actor Jeff Hiller talks to fellow tall person Jordan Klepper to discuss his nomination for Outstanding Guest Actor in the Apple TV series "Pluribus,” and how the seven-minute role could make him the Dame Judi Dench of the Emmys. They talk about his roles in two hit Apple TV shows, how he can tell which show people notice him from, his use of improv in “Widow’s Bay,” and how his “Pluribus” character embodied a human ChatGPT. -- To get simple, online access to personalized, affordable care for ED, Hair Loss, Weight Loss, and more, visit https://Hims.com/dailyshow -- New customers can save 35% on your first month of subscription by going to https://dosedaily.co/TDS or entering TDS at checkout. -- The Daily Show airs weeknights at 11/10c on Comedy Central.

Trump Bombs at White House Correspondents' Dinner & Jon Stewart Offers Comedy Tips | Kaitlan Collins
Jon Stewart breaks down the rescheduled White House Correspondents' Dinner that took place over the weekend: After the original WHCD event was derailed by an attempted shooting, Trump’s defiant return to the stage featured timely references to 2016, wordy roasts that failed to pack a punch, and trailing explanations of jokes that bombed. Jon gives Trump’s speech a Comedy 101 critique and wonders which of this year’s correspondents' dinners ended more unceremoniously. Jon sits down with CNN's award-winning chief White House correspondent and “The Source” anchor Kaitlan Collins to discuss the White House Correspondents’ dinner and how she handles insults from the president. They talk about how the White House press corps has changed in the 10 years since she started covering Trump, reporters’ frustrations with the president’s refusal to answer questions, and the value of asking follow-up questions. Plus, Jon prepares a little roleplay to encourage Collins to give Trump a taste of his own medicine. -- To get simple, online access to personalized, affordable care for ED, Hair Loss, Weight Loss, and more, visit https://Hims.com/dailyshow -- New customers can save 35% on your first month of subscription by going to https://dosedaily.co/TDS or entering TDS at checkout. -- The Daily Show airs weeknights at 11/10c on Comedy Central.

This week's host Jordan Klepper and Daily Show writer Jason O. Gilbert sit down to recap the latest news, and preview the week to come. They get into Trump's cruel and cringeworthy performance at the White House Correspondents' Dinner and his authorization of signs outside the Smithsonian that undermine the accuracy of its exhibits. Plus, Klepper and Gilbert discuss America's various food safety problems and disease outbreaks, how a Canadian politician was caught using AI, and the fact that (spoiler alert) the U.S. is still at war with Iran. --New customers can save 35% on your first month of subscription by going to https://dosedaily.co/TDS or entering TDS at checkout. -- The Daily Show airs weeknights at 11/10c on Comedy Central.

Former chair of the Democratic Party of Wisconsin, Ben Wikler, sits down with Jon Stewart to discuss his new book, “This Is The Plan: How to End America’s Meltdown and Save Democracy.” Together, they unravel the story of how Democrats flipped Wisconsin from the gerrymandered Republican stronghold to a state with a Democratic governor, pro-democracy state Supreme Court, and fairer legislative maps. They talk about the strategy behind Wisconsin’s political turnaround, beating Elon Musk’s record-breaking spending in a state Supreme Court race, the importance of WI Democratic Party leaders letting the voters decide the gubernatorial primary race, and what it will take to rebuild the Democratic Party’s power nationally. Desi Lydic sits down with soccer legend, activist, and entrepreneur Megan Rapinoe, who's launching a new podcast called "Why Are You Like This?" The two chat about the World Cup red card scandal and life as a fan after retiring from professional soccer. Plus, Rapinoe talks about her work advocating for equal pay and LGBT rights, how her activism cost her a brand deal, and reframing the term “soccer mom.” Oscar-nominated actor Elliot Page sits down with Desi to discuss starring in Christopher Nolan's "The Odyssey."

Actor Karolina Wydra tells Desi the crazy story behind landing her Emmy-nominated role in the hit Apple TV show, “Pluribus,” and marking her return to acting. Plus, Wydra shares how meditation and dream work helped her play Zosia, a character who lives in a hive-mind consciousness with no ego and no fear. -- The Daily Show airs weeknights at 11/10c on Comedy Central.

Trump Rails Against Communism at Georgia Rally & Don Jr. Swears He Doesn’t Do Coke | Karolina Wydra
Desi Lydic breaks down Trump’s underwhelming rally in Georgia where he presented his plans to tackle affordability (a term he claims was invented by Democrats) and declared that communism is the worst thing to happen to America--including 9/11. Plus, Don Jr. profits from daddy’s presidency but SWEARS he’s not the “cokehead” the internet thinks he is, and Ronny Chieng affirms the two have never done a line together. Is racism nonexistent in 2026 America? That's what gaslighters in conservative media would have you believe, and they're touting their supposed "Black friends" as proof. In this edition of In My Opinion, Leslie Jones takes apart the absurdity of that claim by drawing on her own experiences as a Black American, explaining that being a good white friend means standing up for Black people, and examining what the tragic death of Mississippi teenager Nolan Wells says about the myth of a post-racist America. Catch Leslie Jones on HGTV's "Roast My Rental." Actor Karolina Wydra tells Desi Lydic the crazy story behind landing her Emmy-nominated role in the hit Apple TV show, “Pluribus,” and marking her return to acting. Plus, Wydra shares how meditation and dream work helped her play Zosia, a character who lives in a hive-mind consciousness with no ego and no fear. -- The Daily Show airs weeknights at 11/10c on Comedy Central.
