Yeah I mean after hearing all of the setup it's no wonder marc was completely overwhelmed. Having your house full of loving tents/snipers etc and secret service breathing down your neck in the room. He did well under the circumstances.

The followup was fantastic. I had no idea that much preparation went into a 1 hour interview with the president. I am now fascinated by the presidential yoga mat.

If you guys are interested. Marc is on Duncan trussell's podcast. They have a brief start with duncan's normal stuff then the rest of interview is all about the obama episode. If you enjoyed the post mortem I would;d recommend this also. As with marc you should skip duncan's intro (go to about 15 mins).

Marc was able to reason his way out of some of the weirder things like him being obsessed about killing kids, but ugh it wasn't pretty.

Duncan on Rogan's #666 podcast was great. He's straddles the line between pseudo-science and spirituality very comfortably. He's a great linguist. Some of the openings of his podcasts are the funniest things I've heard.

Quite honestly the Daily Show portion was only a piece of the overall poo poo pie Wyatt Cynac has had to eat and it was just a taxing episode to listen to all around.

What's wrong with Gen Y when they think they can say whatever they want to their bosses and call their bosses names and not get fired? Stewart showed a lot of restraint because if that jackass came up to me and called me a racist I would have thrown him out on the street without a second thought. Wyatt Cynac is an ungrateful piece of poo poo.

Saying something is racist isn't really calling someone a name though? Especially when it's not even a private racist thing but televised and your boss's job performance sort of depends on how likeable he is. Also being called out on doing something racist is in fact not worse than doing something racist

Stewart showed a lot of restraint because if that jackass came up to me and called me a racist I would have thrown him out on the street without a second thought. Wyatt's Gen X. He didn't call Stewart racist. He felt uncomfortable about a bit Stewart was doing and spoke up. He was the only black person on the show at the time. I saw the clip in question and voice barley registered as "black" to me ... but I'm white and I'm not clued into a lot of more subtle racial things because I don't deal with it constantly like minorities do. If I were Stewart, I'd want to know that the sole black person working on my show, who knows I'm not a racist, still felt uncomfortable with it. That said, Stewart's reaction is somewhat understandable. Dude has a stressful job, is constantly getting poo poo from all sides, and he hit a breaking point. Also, I agree with others who have said this is part of a larger thing in Cenac's life. Dude has some emotional issues for sure. I'm sure he's not the only person in the writer's room to ever get in a shouting match with Stewart over the course of the show's run, but he might be the only person who was utterly emotionally destroyed by it. edit: seriously Irish Joe your post is really loving dumb

Instead, he loving hounded Stewart to the point where Stewart had to tell him to "gently caress off." Here's the thing: when your boss tells you to drop something, you drop it. He makes the decisions, he gives the orders, and you follow. If you can't handle that, then you shouldn't be loving working there. Cynac is a giant baby who threw a temper tantrum (that included name calling) because he didn't get his way, and the fact that he's now going around telling this story as if Stewart did something wrong is just more evidence that Stewart was completely in the right for telling him to "gently caress off."

I'm sure he's not the only person in the writer's room to ever get in a shouting match with Stewart over the course of the show's run, but he might be the only person who was utterly emotionally destroyed by it. Really though it started off saying John Stewart was a bad boss, and it's true. As a boss you shouldn't fly off the handle for your employee speaking up, scream that you're fired then be hesitant to apologize. That's horrific management. Even if you consider Cenac in the wrong, you can't lose it like that on someone that works for you for all of these reasons. There's probably a lot missing from the story, but no, unacceptable. Also I think the best way to describe why Cenac is uncomfortable is that John isn't doing an impression of Herman Cain, he's doing an impression of a black guy that kind of sounds like Herman Cain, which is Kingfish territory. He just ended up being to racially sensitive at the wrong time. It's not like the daily show was a progressive show, in fact it's extremely insensitive to LBGT, race, and women to start off with for a huge amount of time. I think he was just ahead of his time and paid a price for it. Also yeah that life was lovely on top of it, and really explained some black culture in finding meaning in mentors outside of your parental structure, rampant violence and insecurity, and conflicting thoughts of what it is to be and to sound black.I don't think very many black people want to be the beacon and speak up for racial rights, but we just sorta.... have to sometimes. I get that. Sadly I got this episode more than the Obama one.

I think that speaks more about Hollywood's institutionalized racism and sexism that is so is so ingrained that even mentioning it, like the actress from two weeks ago who auditioned for Sandler's latest movie, got her dropped by her agent. Also, you think a 40 year old man is a Millenial. Good post.

Like Cenac, McGowan was behaving unprofessionally. She started trashing a script she turned down on a public forum. The consequence is that she won't get any more scripts from producers (meaning she's doesn't bring in any income for her agent) and the agent also takes flak because she represents McGowan. So the agent has a choice: drop McGowan and save herself from being dragged down by McGowan's unprofessionalism, or stand by McGowan who will never be hired again because...? In short, the agent did the right thing, and though you're crying "sexism  " the evidence clearly shows that McGowan's behavior is 100% responsible for her getting dropped.
