After a one-week hiatus, Jon Stewart returns to The Daily Show tonight before handing the reins to Ronny Chieng, who will host Tuesday through Thursday.
Stewart kicks off the week with Mother Jones Washington bureau chief David Corn, who will discuss his new book, How Russia Won: Donald Trump, Vladimir Putin, and the Fight for America.
Chieng takes over Tuesday for his fifth hosting week of 2026 and his first since the week of July 7.
His first guests of the week are Death Cab for Cutie, who will promote their new album, I Built You a Tower.
On Wednesday, Chieng welcomes director, writer, and producer Taika Waititi, who will be on to discuss his new film, Klara and the Sun.
The week wraps Thursday with actor and comedian Jimmy O. Yang, who will promote his new stand-up special, Finally Home.
With this week’s run, Chieng will pull even with Josh Johnson at five hosting weeks apiece in 2026. Michael Kosta, Desi Lydic, and Jordan Klepper have each hosted seven weeks, putting them atop the show’s rotating correspondent-host pack for the year.
The Daily Show airs weeknights at 11 p.m. ET/PT on Comedy Central, with episodes streaming the following day on Paramount+.
