Correspondent Spotlight: The Best of Mo ...

About this episode

Former Daily Show correspondent Mo Rocca scours the globe for the big and important stories that would otherwise go untold. Mo meets America’s most preeminent porn librarian, Britain’s most laid back football hooligan, an Oregon town riddled with pinochle debauchery, and a man committed to the singular mission of taking down a local clothing store. He also sits down with Jon to discuss the subjective nature of scoring in sports and chats with Trevor about presidential pets and the interesting people he profiles in his latest book, “Mobituaries.”

 

For more Mo Rocca, listen to his podcast "Mobituaries" — each episode covers his favorite dearly departed people and things worthy of their overdue moment in the spotlight. Listen now https://link.chtbl.com/TDSMobits
