Episode 665: In The Seats With....David Paul Meyer and 'The Daily Show'

In The Seats with...

In this day and age, the fake news cycle is almost as important as the actual one....
As election season ramps up for our friends to the south, producing TV at an effortless pace for multiple viewing platforms is never as easy as it looks, which is why the ones who do make it look easy deserve to get nominated for Emmy's.
We had the unique pleasure of sitting down with director David Paul Meyer who has been working on the show for the last several years. We've talked about the different iterations the show has gone under during his watch, creating the show now not only with different comics and hosts but in making something that is universally watched on multiple platforms at a high level like few others before it.
Obviously 'The Daily Show' is high level comedy viewing no matter where we live, but getting insight into this level of production gives me that much more appreciation for the men and women that are nominated on a show like this.
'The Daily Show' is on Comedy Central in the US, CTV here in Canada and can be seen on Paramount+ and digested in bits from platforms like YouTube to TikTok.
