As 2025 draws to a close, Jon is joined by Crooked Media's Jon Favreau and "The Bulwark" host Tim Miller.

Hello, everybody. Welcome to the weekly show podcast. My name is John Stewart. I will be your

0:12.4

host for this lovely afternoon. It's Wednesday, December 10th. This is the final podcast that we are

0:17.7

doing this year. We will be back, I think, in the, maybe the second week of

0:22.2

January. You know, old people need a good time. You know, it used to be when you're younger,

0:27.0

you go on vacation. I believe I am going to be convalescing. I believe that is the proper term for

0:32.0

ladies and gentlemen over 60 years old who are taking a little bit of a break. But we would

0:37.1

0:37.7

And when we come back, publishing on Wednesdays instead of Thursdays, which I know we'll make

You heard me, moguls. I don't throw that word around lightly. I mean it in the sincerest form. John Favreau, founder of Crooked Media and host of Pod Save America, and Tim Miller, hosted the Bullwork podcast. Gentlemen, welcome. What's up? Thanks for having me. Thank you for taking time from your media empires. Yeah, it's upstairs in my house. My kids' room is right over there. Is it really? Oh, yeah. That's the beauty of podcasting. Favro, by the way, mentioned this earlier. He has to, let me talk about what a sucker, this motherfucker is. He has to get in a car and drive to some place of business. In LA, no less.
