John Oliver has got his start mainly as a correspondent from The Daily Show back in the day when it was hosted by Jon Stewart. He has since moved on to take the main spot behind the desk on his own humorous political news show ‘Last Week Tonight with John Oliver'.
This is without a doubt one of my favorite shows. While it is clearly more left leaning it is simply hilarious and makes the News (which is so bleak lately) a lot more enjoyable to take it. Last night his episode did a special report on gerrymandering and how ridiculous it is. I suggest you watch the entire skit below because it is not only hilarious and interesting, but at about 17 minutes and 45 seconds John gets up from his desk.
He goes into a huge speech about how no matter who we are as Americans we all deserve to have our voices heard. He then calls out all the most ridiculous subcultures of the US from ‘Washington Redskins Fans', '47 year old men playing real life Quidditch', ‘a guy jamming a knife in a toaster' and of course ‘EDM bros'. Honestly…we can't really say that hes wrong. Check out the segment below.
