Former Daily Show host joined the Spotify podcast featuring the major late-night hosts to help raise money for their out-of-work staffers
The best parts of the hour-long podcast, however, consisted of the banter between Stewart and Oliver — including how Stewart “discovered” the British comic for“When I first met Oliver, I was almost sure that it was a Make-A-Wish situation. He was so pale and so sickly at that time,” joked Stewart.
“I remember he threw me some coins and said, ‘Boy, go get the biggest turkey in the city right now,’” Oliver shot back. And then Stewart got a bit earnest: “You see tape after tape after tape after tape, and very rarely do you see a tape and go, ‘That guy.’ And that was just one of those with John. Not to be sincere, but he was so clearly great. And then we found out that he needed a green card… And, first bit in, we sent him down to Civil War reenactors and he broke his nose.”“It was a Civil War reenactment and I believe I was fighting for the North,” explained Oliver.
