Happy National Pi Day! 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 week.
And now, the videos you came for:
Katherine Blanford is delightfully hilarious, as I found out first-hand recently when she performed on my show Totally here in Los Angeles. Well, she just did a set on Fallon that was terrific, and you should totally watch it:
The Daily Show has been super funny lately, and you can watch the best parts for free on YouTube. Here’s a recent clip where Jon Stewart unpacks the GOP’s migrant crime fear-mongering, brings in Desi Lydic to brainstorm on how Democrats might convict Trump, and has Ronny Chieng recap Super Tuesday, the US sending aid to Gaza, and Trump’s attempt to lure in Black voters with AI:
Another clip, with Jon Stewart covering “Biden’s fired-up State of the Union and Katie Britt’s disastrous GOP kitchen rebuttal, and calling bulls**t on conservatives branding themselves the party of ‘true American patriots’ and wrapping themselves in the Constitution, while their leader Trump's rhetoric sounds more like an undemocratic king”:
Gotta share one more Daily Show clip… This one features “Desi Lydic and Michael Kosta celebrating Equal Pay Day and covering Lara Trump getting a job at the RNC with references from God and Donald Trump (in that order). Plus, after Special Counsel Robert Hur cites Biden's memory lapses during a five-hour testimony as proof that he's not mentally fit, Desi and Kosta attempt to paint a full picture with some Biden Testimony Theater”:
Thanks for reading! Have a great weekend.
