How Jon Stewart Stays Hopeful In Uncertain Times | The Daily Show

I'm 60 and I really needed to be reminded of this. Thanks ✌️

This is why teaching real history is important; so people learn how to avoid getting to the point we got to now

I’m really glad John came back to the Daily Show. We really need his perspective to get through this.

As the saying goes, things don't get easier, we just get stronger. I am 43 and believe you me, things that knocked me down at 23 I know them down now. Every phase brings its challenges and strength to continue fighting is one of the rewards of overcoming the challenges.

The difference between hope and despair is a viable plan.

When you're 19 you have all the feelings, and less practice surviving them. This too, shall pass.

Jon Stewart handling an audience question like the genius that he is. There are very few public figures as quick witted.

I'll be 41 in November & when i say i feel like i was blessed to be born just in the nick of time, man...... Old enough to kno what life was like before camera phones & social media & finished school just before it all took off. Everyone my age & older would like to be back in our prime youths, but not in this particular time period. I do not envy kids & young adults today

Jon Stewart’s return to The Daily Show continues to be an enlightening and entertaining event. At age 65 I agree with Jon

Thank you for helping me laugh when it's hard to find happiness.

Oh, he answered that immediately with his posture. He turns mental pain into physical pain. You can relax it away afterward. I really, really like his answer.

Jon Stewart back with the Daily Show is giving me hope and can feel like precious light at the end of the tunnel. He is totally refreshing and shows some comfort in these hectic & worrisome times.

Ill be honest Im 40 and I couldve asked that same question. Despair isnt solely restricted to the young.

I'm about to turn 62 and Jon is spot on. My son is 35 and bought a small home, is successful in the field in which he earned his degree, not married but would like to be and have children, but is seems more cynical than the people younger than him. I told him how proud I was he bought a house and he said "Mama, I'm might be the last one of my generation to get that opportunity and it's not right.". He sees things very clearly compared to where I was at his age. At least he's aware of those coming up behind him are going to have more roadblocks. I think it the information age that's has shaped many a young mind, for better or for worse.

This is the thing I've been trying to convey to folks that say things like "I'm tired of living through major historical events." THAT'S LIFE.

When I was 19, the Vietnam war was in full blast and the draft was alive and well. You worried more about living to see 20 back then.

The opposite of love is not hate- it is indifference.

I'm older than Stewart, my friends were drafted/fought in the Vietnam war. At no time in my life have I worried about my country becoming a dictatorship until now. Jeannine

Stewart has been such a breath of fresh air this election season.
