Catch all of the past week's great guests in one place.
Ari Emanuel, of TKO and WME Group, sits down with Jon Stewart to discuss his new memoir, “Roll the Calls.” The two discuss what Emanuel has learned over his legendary career: how to advocate for himself despite his dyslexia, how to channel anger and ego into a successful business, and how to stand up for the values you believe in. Plus, hear why Emanuel thinks his brother Rahm would be an incredible president— even though he’s NOT running.
Grammy-winning artist Tom Morello sits down with Desi Lydic to discuss his new solo album, “Everyone Gets Everything They Want.” Morello shares how this is the heaviest thing he’s made since the first Rage Against the Machine album, how he lured his 15-year-old son, Roman, into a guitar career using “Stairway to Heaven” and how Roman ended up co-writing five songs on the album. He also discusses his upcoming festival, Power to the People, and credits his late activist mother, Mary, as the reason he believes every guitar riff can be an act of resistance.
Jessica Tarlov, co-host of "The Five" on Fox News and the "Raging Moderates" podcast, joins Desi to chat about her new book "I Disagree: Winning Arguments Without Losing Friends." The pair discuss going toe-to-toe with co-hosts across the aisle, taking criticism in stride (especially from the president), and how the first step to changing minds is opening doors. Plus, hear the special story behind Tarlov’s glasses and which Democrats she has her eye on for the 2028 presidential election.
Three-time Emmy winner Merritt Wever sits down with Desi to discuss her new film, “Primetime,” the story of Chris Hansen and “To Catch a Predator.” They talk about her first Daily Show audience-member experience, how Edie Falco became her “acting mom,” and the story behind her viral, emotionally honest first Emmy acceptance speech. Plus, Wever explains how she dove into her “Primetime” character by learning the art of “host finagling” from veteran TV producers and exploring what happens when news, entertainment, and law enforcement get entangled.
