As for the podcast, the audio presentation will serve as an extension of the main show. For the audio version, members of the staff will moderate interviews with special guests, review facts on the issues presented, and of course, try to be funny in the process. Stewart will host and executive produce The Problem With Jon Stewart through his Busboy Productions label.
Apple TV+ released a teaser trailer for the upcoming show on Monday. In the trailer, Stewart armors up for his big return to the camera. After slipping into a fine suit, Stewart is aghast at how much he’s aged since his time hosting The Daily Show on Comedy Central from 1999 to 2015. “I should have done a podcast,” he exclaims. Jon, you’re doing that too. Get ready, buddy. It’s officially business time! Welcome back!
