Podcast appearances and mentions of Trevor Noah

I’ve been watching Matt Koff’s new comedy special Cat Man all week — it’s out now on YouTube — and this week I got to talk with Matt about it. He’s an Emmy-winning Daily Show writer and the winner of New York’s Funniest Standup 2023. We talked about the cultural discomfort around men who love cats, and the very real divide Matt has clocked between Manhattan audiences (who think men with cats are weird) and Brooklyn audiences (who emphatically do not). As a fellow middle-aged cat dad, I related more than I’d like to admit. We also got into how Cat Man came together: self-financed, shot in two shows on a single night at the Comedy Cellar, and made with a crew of longtime Daily Show colleagues who transformed the Village Underground into something out of David Lynch by way of The Muppet Show. And we talked about the shift from being angry about not being famous to being relieved about it — a turn that, for Matt, has a lot to do with the grease stains on his shirts. Matt Koff is a Brooklyn-based stand-up and Emmy-winning TV writer who has been at The Daily Show for 13 years. His debut comedy album, Who’s My Little Guy?, is out on 800 Pound Gorilla Records, and he’s written for The Onion and the Trevor Noah-hosted White House Correspondents’ Dinner.

Matt Koff! Comedian! Writer! Friend! Delight! More! Matt is a very funny comedian friend! We have a great chat and you can have a great listen! Then tonight you can watch his new special! Here's some more information about that from the press release that says it better than I ever could: Tonight: Cat Man Premiering on YouTube May 15th at 8pm ET, 2026​ Tuesday: NYC Release Viewing Party Tuesday May 19th at Littlefield Any time: READ THE DEADLINE EXCLUSIVE ​​Emmy-Winning writer for the Daily Show, and winner of New York's Funniest Stand Up 2023, Matt Koff is excited to announce the YouTube release of his second comedy hour, Cat Man, May 15th with a premiere at 8pm with Koff attending; he will be in the chat. Said Koff, "I'm excited to share my special with the broader audience of YouTube. If this special doesn't bring about world peace, nothing will." Cat Man is an hour of fresh stand-up material from the Comedy Cellar regular about divorce, middle-age and cats. Koff believes there is a real bias against men with cats. He says "People love cats, but men with cats make people uncomfortable. Including me. I'm a man with a cat and I'm creeped out by myself!" The special is also a reprieve for Koff from his main subject of joke-writing at the Daily Show: Donald Trump. He says "It was nice to do an entire special that doesn't mention the president, whomever he may be. And judging from the state of the world, this could very well be my last comedy special, so I'm excited to get it out there." He added, "I will still be touring doomsday bunkers though." Cat Man was shot at The Comedy Cellar with some of Matt Koff's long-time Daily Show colleagues including director David Paul Meyer, producer Asad Bokhari, and lighting director George Countas, fresh off his win as New York's top Pedro Pascal lookalike. Art Director Becca Gialanella, also a Daily Show colleague, transformed the Cellar's Village Underground into a 1970s lounge. There are a number of other comics from his 23 years in the biz, including Jon Stewart himself (spoiler), that also make a guest appearance. Matt Koff had always dreamed of performing at the Comedy Cellar. He says "It took me years to get an audition there and I was so bitter about not getting in, sometimes I would walk past the Cellar and hiss at the club. Now I get to perform there and hiss at the audience when they don't like a joke." More About Matt Koff: Matt Koff is a Brooklyn-based stand-up comic and veteran Emmy-Winning TV writer working at The Daily Show for the last 13 years. His debut comedy album, WHO'S MY LITTLE GUY?, is out on 800 Pound Gorilla Records.

Hour 1: Bob's Movie Club Presents: There's Something About Mary (1998). It's Cameron Diaz and Ben Stiller! If this is one of your favorite movies, probably just skip this segment. A woman who wrote a children's book about grief has been found guilty of murdering her husband. Summer is almost here! For some, that means the fear of men in flip flops.

Hanna und Adam haben wieder Bock auf die Entertainment-Geschichten aus der vergangenen Woche und auch in einige Starts und Buzz-Titel reingeschaut. Diesmal geht es beispielsweise um Wrestlemania bei Netflix, das Biopic „Michael“, aber auch den Staffelstart von „Beef“ oder frische Comedy-Specials.Aktuelle Quotenmeldungen und Verlängerungen, etwa bei „Young Sherlock“ oder der deutschen Serie „Euphorie“ sind ebenfalls Thema der Diskussionen.

Und ein Streamingdienst hat eine längst überfällige Umbenennung (aber auch Preiserhöhungen) angekündigt.Im Reviewteil geht es um „Beef“ „Crooks“, „The Testaments“, den Anime „Fist of the North Star“. Einen kleinen Teaser gibt es zum Stand-Up-Special von Trevor Noah bei Netflix und eine Empfehlung zu seinem Podcast.

Trump calls for a two-week break to his war against Iran. Ben riffs. Monroe gets out his crystal ball to predict…Trump's cabinet will invoke the 25th amendment to save the country from a President who has lost his mind. Proving that the country's voters lost their minds when they elected Trump. A great debate ensues. Also, a debate over the election results in Georgia. And Monroe fends off the challenge from Trevor Noah.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

One of the delights of Trevor Noah's stint as Daily Show host was the prominent work of correspondent Roy Wood Jr., a comic who started his career making prank phone calls and who has risen to host his own CNN news quiz, as well as becoming a top standup draw and award show host. Born in Birmingham, Alabama, Roy's dad was a black radio pioneer and broadcasting entrepreneur. So it was no surprise that Roy would take up the family trade starting out as part of a Morning Zoo show in Birmingham. Over time Roy gained visibility, especially after a 2010 stint on Last Comic Standing. In 2015 Roy was tapped as a Daily Show correspondent and his chemistry with Trevor Noah was a highlight of the show, which was a perfect showcase for Roy's comedy style which Entertainment Weekly called "charismatic crankiness." When Trevor Noah departed the Daily Show it looked for a time that Roy might get the nod but when that didn't happen Roy pivoted and became host of Have I Got News for You -- a CNN adaptation of a British news quiz with comedians making up the panel. That show, award show hosting gigs, and sold out comedy tours keep Roy busy these days. And if you ever need help getting more sauce for your chicken nuggets Roy is your man -- it's all explained in this week's show. As always, find extra clips below and thanks for sharing our shows. Want more Roy Wood Jr? Roy was one of the highlights of Trevor Noah's stint as Daily Show host. This bit on world history shows why. https://youtu.be/EWX0bbGAd0k?si=c8LlAI6bJJLzWPeu Roy's current gig is hosting CNN's news quiz Have I Got News for You, a fun stroll through the headlines. https://youtu.be/2xdgL5_xj-I?si=XTcELti6IHKeVkUw Roy is a superb satirist, but he also takes on the frustration of every day life -- like getting enough chicken nugget sauce. https://youtu.be/8qj0BcuRPoc?si=yTxYPsAALpwNRZTZ

In this solo episode, Travis Chappell reflects on the importance of friendship and how meaningful relationships impact our health, happiness, and success. Inspired by a conversation between Simon Sinek and Trevor Noah, Travis shares personal lessons about how chasing business success and carrying burdens alone led him to unintentionally distance himself from friends. He explores the idea that friendship may be the ultimate “biohack” for a better life, dives into the famous Rat Park experiment on addiction and community, and explains why being a great friend is often the key to building deeper relationships. On this episode we talk about: Why Simon Sinek calls friendship the “ultimate biohack” for health, happiness, and longevity The powerful lesson from the Rat Park experiment about community and addiction Why refusing to share struggles with friends can actually damage relationships The balance between vulnerability and becoming the constant “complainer” in a friend group Practical ways to strengthen friendships by creating shared experiences and memories Top 3 Takeaways Friendship is one of the most powerful predictors of health and happiness. Meaningful relationships can impact everything from emotional well-being to long-term longevity. Being a good friend means allowing others to show up for you. Refusing to share struggles can unintentionally rob your friends of the chance to support you. Experiences create stronger friendships than conversation alone. Shared activities and memories build deeper trust and connection over time. Notable Quotes "Friendship is the ultimate biohack that literally fixes everything." "If you don't allow your friends to be there for you, you're robbing them of the opportunity to be a good friend." "Stop asking how to make friends and start asking how to become a great friend."

Today's Headlines: The Wall Street Journal reported that a whistleblower complaint about Tulsi Gabbard is considered so sensitive it's been locked away by an inspector general for eight months due to concerns it could cause “grave damage to national security,” even as Gabbard has remained in her role. The report landed just days after her unusual involvement in an FBI raid on a Georgia election office, which the New York Times says included a phone call where Trump spoke directly with agents on speakerphone. Elsewhere, DHS announced ICE officers in Minneapolis will begin wearing body cameras, as reports surfaced of a measles outbreak at an ICE detention center in Texas holding hundreds of children. Meanwhile, Bill and Hillary Clinton agreed to testify behind closed doors before House investigators about Jeffrey Epstein, narrowly avoiding contempt charges. Trump generated headlines of his own after plans for a massive “Independence Arch” in Washington were revealed, followed by threats to sue Grammy Awards host Trevor Noah over Epstein jokes.

There were history-making moments, as well as awkward ones, at last night's 68th annual Grammy Awards. Cher's Lifetime Achievement Award presentation went off the rails and culminated with her introducing Luther Vandross as the winner of the Record of the Year. (Vandross passed away 21 years ago.) The night also included interesting outfits, ICE references, and a Trevor Noah joke that prompted Pres. Trump to promise a lawsuit. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

An hour into the Grammys and we’ve seen plenty of incredible performances, as in every single nominee in the Best New Artist category. But so far, only two awards have been handed out: Best Rap Album and Best New Artist, as host Trevor Noah tries to keep things light and lively moving through the who’s who of artists from Justin Beiber to Jelly Roll to Shaboozy to Jamie Foxx.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

New Epstein files spark outrage as millions of DOJ records surface. The panel breaks down explosive recordings, powerful names, media reactions, Trump's response, and what the documents actually allege. Separating verified facts from speculation in a story that keeps getting darker.

There were history-making moments, as well as awkward ones, at last night's 68th annual Grammy Awards. Cher's Lifetime Achievement Award presentation went off the rails and culminated with her introducing Luther Vandross as the winner of the Record of the Year. (Vandross passed away 21 years ago.) The night also included interesting outfits, ICE references, and a Trevor Noah joke that prompted Pres. Trump to promise a lawsuit. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
