The Daily Show: Ears Edition

GOP Shills for Tesla, Trump Admin Flubs JFK File Release & DEI Scrubbing | Peter Wolf

Fri, 21 Mar 2025

Description

Jordan Klepper covers Trump’s anti-DEI fallout, including the Pentagon’s erasure of Jackie Robinson and The Enola Gay. Plus, Troy Iwata joins the Republicans' campaign to revive Tesla stock and keep Elon Musk rich. With many Americans preparing for doomsday, the apocalypse has become good business. Michael Kosta visits Fortitude Ranch, a post-apocalyptic survival community where preppers can wait out the end times in country-club glamour with their own rooms, artillery, and food supplies…for a hefty amount of cash. Legendary musician, artist, and New York Times best-selling author Peter Wolf joins Jordan Klepper to talk about his new memoir, “Waiting on the Moon.” The former J. Geils Band frontman recounts the era in which he wrote their album “Full House,” and how he strived to write a “not-boring” memoir by sharing vignettes about the people he idolized. Plus, he tells some stories from the book, including when he drank Bob Dylan’s wine and the time Muddy Waters became his houseguest.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Well, I'll tell you, I was coming down from Boston, and all of a sudden, my phone started lighting up like Times Square. And all of a sudden, I found the news. So it's too soon for me to even feel anything.

Yeah.

Let it in, Peter.

00:00 - 00:00 Unknown Speaker

Let it in.

00:00 - 00:00 Peter Wolf

Let the poor come down. But, you know, I'm the kind of guy that, you know, comedy depresses me. So, you know, if it's half empty, well, not you. Thank you.

Thank you very much. Jesus.
