Summary

Jon Stewart goes old-school Daily Show on Trump and Republicans who pride themselves on “saving” free speech, all while censoring anybody who doesn’t agree with them.

Paul Rudd sits down with Jon Stewart to chat about his latest starring roles in the films “Death of a Unicorn” and “Friendship,” watching their kids grow up, and, of course, pharmaceutical side effects to the perineum.
