Last Week Tonight

We’re back with more hard facts, medium-deep history, and society’s least asked-for stories, starting February 18th!

All of Season 8 is coming to our YouTube channel this Sunday, for free! Just like that *snaps fingers*! Oh god oh god please don’t say we trapped George Clooney in the digital realm please he is going to be SO pissed.

We’re on hiatus now, so we can’t talk about Trump’s plan to start a trade war with tariffs. But to be honest, there’s not much to be said about the subject of “What Donald Trump Doesn’t Understand About Trade” that we didn’t already cover in 2018. youtu.be/etkd57lPfPU?si…

No matter how hard we try to blow up a year, they just keep “existing” in “history.” Season 7 will be free on YouTube starting 11/24!

Here’s last Sunday’s finale story about the looming TikTok ban, where some of the concerns about TikTok may stem from and, of course, robot penises. Several. You’ll see. youtu.be/5CZNlaeZAtw

This week’s main story is about TikTok. It’s about other social media platforms, too. But it’s mostly about TikTok because, let’s be honest, it’s the most important platform. We’re not saying it should be. We’re just saying: it is.

Our season finale starts tonight at 11:10pm! And John is going to miss you guys so much between now and our season 12 premiere in February, he’s actually tearing up right now. But if we let him play with a ball for 10 mins backstage he should snap out of it. Hence 11:10.

Now seems like a good time to revisit this piece from last summer. It's about the man who is an enemy to all animals, friend to all measles: youtu.be/1gUP_43J7wY?si…

Here’s last Sunday’s story about Donald Trump’s reelection and why, no, John’s job is not easier now, fuck you very much. youtu.be/LU2atCWyAos

This week’s main story is about Donald Trump’s reelection, why it’s too soon to tell exactly how we got here, and why everyone should just pause, take a breath, and let Tyla buff her jean shorts.

We’ve got a new episode tonight at 11:10pm! And that’s the biggest difference we can think of about this week’s show. It’s starting 10 minutes later than usual. Everything else is pretty much just chuggin’ along.

This week’s main story is about how Donald Trump’s businesses have changed since his term as president, what could happen if he’s reelected, and how badly we want Reba McEntire to go on Hot Ones. Please, Reba. We need this.

Here’s a quick message about voting from last night’s episode. It also contains the single worst photo of any human being, ever. youtu.be/tWZAbKU-JzE

We’ve got a new episode tonight at 11:01pm! Or maybe we’ll mix it up and play a rerun! Haha, just kidding, this week of all weeks, we WILL monologue for 40 minutes straight.

We will pay the U.S. government $701 a year to play this at naturalization ceremonies.

Here’s last Sunday’s story about Lee Greenwood, the man behind one of America’s most popular anthems “God Bless the USA” – and a suggestion for a better song to play at naturalization ceremonies. youtu.be/P6grAoS-muM

This week we did something a bit different. We covered two main stories, both related to immigration. One is about mass deportations, and the other is about the man behind one of America’s most popular anthems, “God Bless the USA,” but they’re both — at their core — about Mountain Dew Baja Blast. Because any story about America is sort of a story about Mountain Dew Baja Blast.

Tonight’s show starts at 11:02pm! Cause we love a little wiggle room. Ya, those are wiggle room minutes. We’ve got big plans to let loose between 11 and 11:02pm. No idea how, but it’ll happen. In a big way, it’ll happen. Believe you us.

Safety glasses off! Season 6 is coming to YouTube this Sunday, 10/20 at 11pm ET.

Here’s last Sunday’s story about the attempts made by Donald Trump and his supporters to undermine the upcoming election, what we can expect after election night and, of course, how to give one muppet an instant orgasm: youtu.be/CkK3W0lOKcc

This week’s main story is about the attempts made by Donald Trump and his supporters to undermine the upcoming election, why those attempts might seem valid to someone you know, love or are related to – all different – and what we can expect after election night.
