About this episode

Ronny Chieng and Lewis Black unite for a self-described Grievance Edition of Behind the Show. Lewis takes Ronny back to the early days of The Daily Show and the first iterations of Lewis’s rants. They discuss how Back In Black evolved with the show and American culture throughout the years, how Lewis built his stand-up career as TDS took off, and whether political satire stands a chance against today’s insane news environment.
