Jon Stewart on Guns and Stephen Colbert on F*cker Carlson

Happy National Landline Telephone Day! Hello, I’m Geoff Plitt, and welcome to What You Need to Know, the brief, weekly newsletter where I share the best comedy videos I’ve seen all week. It will always be free, and you’re welcome to become a friend by following me on Twitter, Instagram, or TikTok, where I share my own jokes every day.

Quick shout out: One of my favorite guests on Bill Maher’s “Real Time” show on HBO has always been Andrew Sullivan. He’s funny, smart, British, Catholic, gay, and has a complex political stance, being fundamentally conservative yet often supportive of liberal perspectives. And to my surprise, he subscribed to this newsletter last week and pledged to support a future paid version! A nice surprise from a swell guy. Give Andrew a follow on Twitter and check out his Substack.

And now, the funny vids you came for:

  1. Jon Stewart posted a youtube clip of his interview with Nathan Dahm about gun control, and I thought it was funny but also brilliant:

  2. Stephen Colbert’s take on Tucker Carlson (or as I call him, Fucker Carlson)’s recent highly-slanted report on January 6 footage was amazing:

  3. Colbert also had a funny sketch that imagines how Tucker would have covered Jaws:

  4. And finally, check out Greg Barris’ recent hilarious set on Corden:

That’s all for now!

- Geoff

P.S. Enjoying this newsletter? Forward to a friend! Give the gift of humor, and get credit for your sense of taste.
