They still have not decided on a host?

Guest host schedule. I guess Dulce Sloan and Ronny Chieng just get shafted out of their hosting opportunities. And Leslie Jones and Sarah Silverman are returning for round 2 for some reason?

Jon Stewart is returning to host Monday episodes through the election, with correspondents hosting Tuesday-Thursday.

Their ratings much have tanked since going the host-less route, which makes sense. People tune into these daily shows for the consistency of the host. If I were one of the higher ranked correspondents, I'd go the route of Roy Wood and jump ship. CC isn't giving the job to any of them if they haven't already.

“Jon Stewart is the voice of our generation, and we are honored to have him return to Comedy Central’s The Daily Show to help us all make sense of the insanity and division roiling the country as we enter the election season,” Chris McCarthy, President/CEO of Showtime/MTV Entertainment Studios
The voice of Gen X maybe. Zoomers probably don't know who he is, and Millennials probably don't care about his return as much as we do.

Jon Stewart's takedowns of officials from "The Problem With..." do HUGE numbers on TikTok. I think it's a smart move to bring him back, especially for the younger folks who didn't watch him on The Daily Show but are politically active now.

If they keep posting to Tik Tok, Jon will easily grow a new fanbase of younger viewers.

I figured people were done dismissing TikTok by now, it's a hugely influential platform.

I keep getting Indeed job position emails for TikTok and I'd hop on that if I wasn't unsure of what our politicians are doing.
their pay range from low end to high seems pretty fair (I saw one for another company that listed $100k - $700k and just laughed).

Jon Stewart is the hero we need but don’t deserve.
I haven’t watched The Daily Show since Stewart left. I’ll tune in again for his shows.

Maybe he is burned out and does not want to return full time or do more than just shows on Mondays
