The Daily Show: Ears Edition

Charlie Kirk Criticism Ignites MAGA Cancel Culture Spree | Jay Duplass & Michael Strassner

17 Sep 2025

Description

Desi Lydic unpacks the toxic internet landscape in the aftermath of Charlie Kirk’s assassination, where members of the Trump administration have called for people to lose their jobs for criticizing Kirk, the attorney general has seemingly forgotten the meaning of free speech, and Trump only wants to discuss White House renovations. Plus, Michael Kosta offers some solid reasoning for going back to the ‘80s. After siccing the National Guard on Washington D.C., Trump is chomping at the bit to militarize other Democrat-run U.S. cities, including New York. Grace Kuhlenschmidt asks New Yorkers if they think the National Guard has what it takes to make it in the Big Apple. Michael Strassner and Jay Duplass sit down with Desi Lydic to discuss the critically acclaimed independent film they co-wrote, “The Baltimorons,” which Strassner stars in and Duplass directed. They share how their friendship and collaboration began with an Instagram DM and a sweaty meet-cute and how making the romantic caper comedy, which is based on Strassner’s personal journey with sobriety after a failed suicide attempt, was a cathartic experience for the comedian.
