Kal Penn gets my vote for a permanent host if CC goes that direction. It's crucial that Roy, Dulce and Ronnie Chang get serious airtime as they are f-ing hysterical!

So far the rotating hosts concept is a big win!

If Kal Penn becomes the new host, I would watch every night.

so glad they included at least one "I worked in the White House!"

I think Kal was the smoothest & most natural

Always loved his work, but the "woke mind virus" piece (7:30) hits home. I remember at university (Regina, Saskatchewan, Canada) when I got permission to take Indian Studies instead of economics for my degree (really don't like doing number stuff, although I can :/). Almost every class (I went to 300 level), I kept saying, "I never learned this in school. I never learned this in school. I never learned this in school." It was a psychological trauma and an awakening process that I appreciate having gone through. After moving to a Mexico (a racist country about white skin), it was further pounded into my brain what White Privilege is. ALL PEOPLE who use the word "woke" in a derogatory way are white or only want to keep their white funded jobs and/or status. End.

Trevor Noah still the best for the Daily show. ....just saying. 😒😏

Kal Penn? Not bad. The only annoying thing is, every time there is a new host, there is a barrage of comments saying, "THIS IS THE ONE!"

My vote is Hasan Minhaj, Roy Wood Jr, and then Kal Penn. I love all three of them!

[michelegrosskopf]

I’ve known kal since middle school! He is super funny and an all around great guy! I always knew he was gonna make it big. Wtg kalpen modi!

[anas.]

Definitely the best, I wish he could co host with Roy, but if that's not possible he needs to be the next host. Intelligent, at ease, caring, sarcastic, he's a natural substitute for Trevor👍

[alatorra]

Kal Penn is the best! He's so funny, and he worked at the White House! He should be the next host.

[jdizzy]

These Hasan highlights prove they didn't choose the correct host

[gggnumber]

Holy Cow, I've been warned. I'm gonna stop being 'woke' right now.

Ppl aren't buying homes because 10k of debt disappeared. First time home buyers are a relic of the past. Can't compete with Blackrock, bought neighborhoods near me for CASH. Owners across the street listed for 470k investors bought it 630k CASH. That was 2 weeks ago in middle Tennessee.

North Carolina was going against the founders ideals.

I'm glad it had been changed.

[pennylarsen]

I like the fact that he doesn’t use the F word every other sentence. Go, Kal Penn!

[YukimuraSanadaEmpires]

Haha the dude in the Persona 5 sweater. Great taste mate

Young people are the answer. The policies they support will be what saves the nation.
