I really appreciate him. I don't agree with him al the time, but shit, I didn't agree with Jon Stewart all the time either. And I don't think Noah gets a fair shake- from any side of the aisle, frankly.

No one agrees with anyone 100% - and it's something he brings up a lot, that he is open to listening to others, to try to understand where they come from. It's a very rare thing these days... And he's trying to reach out beyond his own 'bubble', which is especially admirable (and important) these day. He seems exactly the right person for this moment in time.
Thank you for this!! What a thoughtful and articulate interview!! It amazes me how well informed the 'smaller' and more obscure shows (less national/international) are to those that have a bigger stage and audience. I do love Trevor and I have to give him kudos through going through so much at such a young age and coming out with these mature, well intentioned views - and the ability to admit that he may be wrong. Only time and history will tell. How mature that is!! Course, I really don't think he IS wrong on most of his views. And I look forward to learning and growing with him.

I feel like they're all connected. You grow up like that and I feel it must force you to examine what you know and your understanding of the world.
I'd certainly heard of Jon Stewart, and then seen Trevor Noah's name fly around too after he took over, but I certainly wouldn't have had the opportunity to hear anything beyond that without actively searching from him… Mind you, I could have done that in the first place as well ;)
