The Weekly Stewart This Week
On this “The Weekly Show” podcast with Jon Stewart, his guest is Mehdi Hasan, Founder and Editor-in-Chief of ZETEO As the show writes, “As mainstream media finds itself outplayed by Trump, Jon is joined by Mehdi Hasan. Together, they discuss his experience debating far-right conservatives on Jubilee, explore how Democrats could match Republican ruthlessness and tactics, and examine how America’s failure to stop the crisis in Gaza has undermined both U.S. credibility and Democratic moral authority. Plus, Jon talks Jay Leno and vindictive pricks. Unrelated.”
