where's Christiana?
Such an interesting conversation.
Love the diverse range of guests and topics on What Now? The Jon Stewart episode was particularly insightful - hearing two Daily Show hosts reflect on their experiences was fascinating. https://iptv-suisse.eu/

I really loved listening to this episodes and all the details I didn't know about the end of apartheid. I wanted to mention that when you say there was nothing similar anywhere else where an oppressing minority gave up power and didn't suffer retribution from the minority, https://iptvdanmark.net
Nobody could summarize what happened better than you , https://iptvschweize.ch
Nobody could summarize what happened better than you... and it's so relatable for Iranians as we also have the habit of making jokes even from terrible things happen to us!
Trevor's impression is incredible. Anytime I'm talking about tech, I try to work in "It's all computer!" from an episode months ago. 🤣
I really loved listening to this episodes and all the details I didn't know about the end of apartheid. I wanted to mention that when you say there was nothing similar anywhere else where an oppressing minority gave up power and didn't suffer retribution from the minority, but I think Pinochet and the Chilean right (= the Chilean oligarchy) giving up power in 88/89 can be compared to it in these terms.
This has got to be up there in my favourite podcast episodes of all time. Each guest and Trevor has filled in the gaps into the history of South Africa during its worst times and its time of healing. Thank you all for the history lesson
Trevor Noah you spoke of bottled air....you need to read this prophetic and dark comedy by the brilliant Ben Elton 'Stark'
These episodes are always interesting thought exercises about how the world could be different.
This one made me feel part of humanity again. I have never heard so many thoughts, values, and dispositions that I share said aloud.
Really intriguing idea from Tressie and a fantastic episode all around
loved the episode
Trevor I love you but Hortacha es Valenciana!! From Spain!! ❤❤
you're a poes trevor
Sometimes, through books, movies and everything we watch and listen to, we seek to be "understood." And by listening to this episode, I not only learned with joy, but also felt understood. I sincerely thank you. Happy Nowruz 🤍🌱
Love this chapter for Halle Berry!
