I do not expect to ever be in this situation (on the daily show) but I enjoyed this list just the same.

Jon Stewart is probably my favorite interviewer... although Rachel Maddow is pretty darn good too.

The gift bag should at least be thematic. I hear Bill O'Riley gives his guests a Pocket Bible, a confederate flag and a box of 00 buck.

Did they stop giving away Rubik's Cubes after Neil deGrasse Tyson wouldn't leave until he had solved it?

I think it says more about the network.

I can't tell you what Jon said to me during those five seconds _except_ to say that it was of a highly personal nature.

FTFY

Thank you for writing this. It was insightful and really humorous. I can only hope that one day I get the opportunity to meet with Jon.

Good list although I am more likely to be struck by lightning than be invited as a guest on The Daily Show. As for the swag, all I can say for most of it is 'Hunh?"

Whenever I see an interview end and the host leans in to seemingly chat with his guest as they go to commercial, and they always seem to do that, I wonder if the host is actually try to engage in some meaningful conversation since he doesn't have to be cracking jokes for the camera. Or is he simply offering a perfunctory 'thank you', since it looks better on camera if the two of you are still talking versus just silently looking at one another waiting to leave.

you have a type in comment #9, that's all: five seconds expect say that it was of a highly personal nature.
you want except. your 'c' and 'p' need to be switched.
