Roy Wood Jr.: The Daily Show still has to clean up the "skid marks" of the Trump era

The Daily Beast

"You know what it’s like at The Daily Show dealing with Trump?" Wood tells The Last Laugh podcast. "This analogy isn’t going to make sense, but you ever take a big sh*t and then you flush and you think you’re done and you’re getting ready to leave and handle the business in the house? And then you look back at the toilet and there’s still four skid marks. You got other sh*t that you’ve got to deal with in the house, but there’s still skid marks that you’ve got to get. So every week is the constant battle of, there’s a new skid mark!" Wood adds: "It’s not bad news vs. crazy news. It’s, here’s some progress that's being made. Or do we even know that it’s progress because we haven’t had time to really dig deep into it because we’re still cleaning skid marks. This is the fifth time that we’ve flushed this fucking toilet! So it’s been kind of juggling those two things at the same time."
