On the topic of his future at The Daily Show, Wood said: “My future at The Daily Show is not promised, in terms of hosting. I went back and forth ‘I don’t know do you pull a Trevor Noah and say what you’re gonna do beforehand, or do you just do it on the last episode and I figured we’d do it on the last episode’,” he added. “This is not an easy decision to come to. “This will be the last episode release of Roy’s Job Fair for a little while, while I figure out what the fuck to do in the world of late night,” he said on the podcast. Wood will pause his own podcast, Roy’s Job Fair, in the meantime.

I was chatting to her and telling her how proud I am and enjoying it for her,” Noah told StyleCaster’s sister site, THR. “Wanda is a legend,” he added, “so seeing her enjoying herself, expressing herself-I’ve been loving all of it.” I remember Leslie and I working together way back in the day before either of us was on American TV, and this was us doing comedy clubs in and around the US. Where there’s no conflict, pain or tragedy, I don’t know what to do. “And we joke about it not to minimize it but to try and heal the wounds. “I know what it’s like to live in a country that’s extremely divided by race - where people feel like it’s crashing every day and they don’t trust that their president has their best interests at heart,” he told The Hollywood Reporter in 2019. Coming of age under apartheid, Noah felt uniquely equipped to talk about the 2016 presidential election.

He was regarded as a late-night unicorn due to his unique perspective on the American discourse, but now that his tenure has come to an end, there’s a big question of who’ll replace Trevor Noah as the next Daily Show host.
