The Daily Show Season 31 Episode 103
September 21, 2026 - Ari Emanuel
Jon Stewart takes on the White House's new press ban for major media outlets with the help of Desi Lydic, who was able to sneak into the Oval Office disguised as a golden cherub. Plus, as the threat of AI escalates (while AI enriches the president), Jon sees a sinister parallel between how people talk about bots and how MAGA talks about immigrants. "Most of the time I am talking for other people when I represent them; this is the first time I'm talking in my voice." 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.
