  • Hantavirus Is Not the Next Covid, But Try Telling That to the News Media | Josh Tyrangiel

    Hantavirus Is Not the Next Covid, But Try Telling That to the News Media | Josh Tyrangiel
    May 12 2026
    Jon Stewart dives into the hantavirus cruise ship panic sweeping the news cycle, the landfill visit that appears to have sparked the spread, whether we’re getting a pandemic sequel, and the media’s eagerness to sensationalize the virus while health experts urge calm. Plus, Trump gets his own version of the golden calf, and cruise ships offer free norovirus. Josh Tyrangiel, staff writer at The Atlantic and author of “AI for Good: How Real People Are Using Artificial Intelligence to Fix Things That Matter” joins Jon to discuss why there is a brief but closing window to use public pressure and political will to demand AI that actually works with human beings, and doesn’t replace them. Tyrangiel shares how teachers, doctors and caregivers are quietly using AI as a tool to change lives. They also discuss why Fortune 100 CEOs don’t want to talk about AI’s impact on their workforce and this idea of imagining “tech without the tech companies.” -- The Daily Show airs weeknights at 11/10c on Comedy Central.

    The Precap | Jordan Klepper on "Bored" Trump's UFO Report, Cruise Ship Improv, and Crying During Basketball
    May 11 2026
    This week's host Jordan Klepper sits down with Daily Show writer Scott Hercman to recap the latest news, and preview the week to come. They look back at Jordan's first days at The Daily Show as weird costume fodder and history as a cruise ship performer, and dig in to reports that Trump is "bored" with his war in Iran, preferring to sew chaos with UFO reports, constant construction and late night NFL kickoff criticism. Looking ahead, they preview Trump's trip to China with his CEO entourage, and bask in the glow of a successful basketball playoff run with the New York Knicks. -- Watch the full video version of The Precap on YouTube: https://youtu.be/NsRwpf5ehdI -- The Daily Show airs weeknights at 11/10c on Comedy Central.
