Comedians joining The Daily Show and pursuing careers in America

Ronny Chieng is at the desk to cover the day's top stories, including talks of a temporary truce in the Middle East, the ousted OpenAI CEO inspiring an employee revolt, and Ozempic's effect on Thanksgiving. Next, Barnaby Durk (Ronny Chieng) has kept schedules for CEOs, titans of industry, and even that NXVIM guy without a problem, but Donald Trump is a whole other beast. Meet the person behind the person, Donald Trump's Official Scheduler. And former Daily Show correspondent John Oliver discusses the difficulty of doing comedy in America as an immigrant, offering Ronny Chieng words of advice as he began his correspondent career and why he enjoys the feeling of being in trouble when it comes to comedy.
