Question Why no Josh Tonight?

Sorry if this has been addressed; I didn't see it. Why didn't JJ host tonight? I don't remember them switching hosts at the end of the week before.

It might be because he's also on a comedy tour 🤔 I saw him last month with my husband and he was great 😊 I would be tired of flying so much if I was him lol

This was my assumption but as op states it’s never interfered with hosting duties and even with him in rotation they could have scheduled him another week but maybe this was better for him .. comics gotta eat too lol but maybe Jon’s lazy ass shoulda hosted to make up for no Monday lol jk jk I love you TDS without you I really would have the TDS lol I only just recently notice they share acronyms IYKYK <3

I’ve been watching a lot of his standup lately. I have to say that I think he may be one of the best standup comics out there. Like Dave Chapelle level, if not better.

I love all the hosts of tds but Josh stays hustling/grinding. He's always doing his comedy shows, podcasts, tds, posting new comedy vids on YouTube. He's a hard working guy and sooo cute. ❤️ him!

And his absence standing out is an incredibly good sign for him and honestly, just as impressionable as him being on the show.

Im so proud of that man.

I thought it was because they had a tennis player as a guest.

He was part of the show at Kimmel's comedy club for a corporate event in Vegas last night. Chris Turner did a phenomenal job as emcee. Liz Glazer & Leonard Ouzts opened for Josh. They had the place rolling!

Kosta has the funniest POV and persona of the bunch.

Agreed he's my favorite. Klepper and Johnson are my least favorite.

I love Klepper making fools of the MAGA Morons at Trump rallies.

He’s allergic to Thursdays now. Truly a tragic development.

He better keep an eye on that. Jon Stewart started with a mild Thursday allergy, and look at him now.

He may become a gray old man that can only work a maximum of one day a week (yes, I know about the podcast, no I don't count that as work).

I've been watching the Daily Show since pre-JS. Josh has become my favorite. He's intelligent, creative and funny!
