The Daily Show (The Audiobook): An Oral History as Told by Jon Stewart, the Correspondents, Staff and Guests by Chris Lutkin, Kevin T. Collins, Jay Snyder, Jon Stewart, Chris Smith, Robert Fass, Oliver Wyman, Lauren Fortgang

4.0

A really cool insight into the inner workings of The Daily Show and how it evolved from 1996-2016. It started out resembling "Weekend Update" on SNL - one liner jokes about pop culture. But when Jon Stewart came to the show he transformed the entire structure and created one of the most influential tv shows of all time. The chapters about the early 2000's took me back to middle and high school when I would come home and watch the previous night's episode at 2:30/3:00. The show truly did introduce me to political conversation and encouraged younger generations to engage. My only complaint is that the audiobook is entirely read by professional voice actors, who don't always sound very much like the real person.
