It has been unclear if Jon Stewart would remain at Comedy Central once his current contract expires with newly merged Paramount, a Skydance Corporation, installed as its parent company.

He also discussed, at length, the current state of politics in America, the dangers of social media, his interview with Donald Rumsfeld, and the comedians who took money from the Saudis to perform in Riyadh. “I thought the only person who should have done it was probably Pete Davidson, because they owe him money,” Stewart joked.
