About this episode

Ronny Chieng zooms in on the white guys who are fired up for Kamala Harris and finds out why the Democrats are calling Donald Trump & JD Vance "weird." Plus, Grace Kuhlenschmidt gets the scoop on those childless cat ladies Vance has been trash-talking. In an all-new "Back in Black," Lewis Black takes a look at what climate change is up to now, from soda cans exploding on airplanes to the tourists who are finding out why Death Valley is called that. And director, Jon M. Chu, discusses his new book, “Viewfinder: A Memoir of Seeing and Being Seen.” They talk about how Jon cast Ronny in “Crazy Rich Asians” after spotting him on The Daily Show, reimagining the American Dream and his advice to young dreamers, and why he was drawn to direct the Wicked Witch’s backstory in the upcoming film adaptation of “Wicked.”
