His show is really predictable. He always has voice of reason in-person and absurdity remotely.
I thought this specific episode was bad and poorly represents the problems. Stewart is all over the place with his views. I honestly didn't really understand what was trying to be said through the episode although many of his other episodes follow a single narrative.
Video in question to the article:

- sgt 5y agoYeah, he and a bunch of other talk show hosts and comedians. It's so cringy to watch. Other examples include Trevor Noah, Seth Meyers, Stephen Colbert, Fallon. Can't we get Carson, Letterman and Conan back?
- emerged 5y agoConan can be pretty bad as well. Anytime he’s pressed he falls precisely in line with far left views and goes to great lengths to avoid the slightest controversy.
- Sporktacular 5y agoWhat's an example of Conan being on the far left? Sounds like your bias talking.
- emerged 5y agoOh Jesus Christ whatever
- threatofrain 5y agoConan isn't even in the same playing field. Conan is mostly silly skits that have little or nothing to do with politics. Colbert used to do news infotainment, which means the primary bulk of his content was responding to the news of the day. One can look up Conan skits on YouTube by just typing in his name.
- passivate 5y agoEveryone has a very narrow range of specialized knowledge, opinions and beliefs, and people overvalue their own approach as nuanced and balanced and see-all-sides. Even on HN, there are several times when conversations on economics, pubic policy, science, vaccines border on cringey for someone who is an expert in those fields. I think the single most hardest thing to do is to escape ones own perspective.
- dole 5y agoCarson’s gonna be tough, he died in 2005.
- kcplate 5y ago> Stewart is all over the place with his views. Good. That means he has the ability to think for himself and doesn’t feel the need to comply with some BS partisan orthodoxy.
