Jon Stewart is tagging back in to host Thursday’s episode of “The Daily Show,” Comedy Central has announced. Stewart normally just hosts Monday episodes of the talk show, with a rotating list of the show’s correspondents on Tuesday through Thursday. This week, Desi Lydic has been handling hosting duties.

But Stewart clearly has something to say in light of Disney and ABC’s decision to bench “Jimmy Kimmel Live!” host Jimmy Kimmel. The network and its parent company have been criticized for the move, which came after FCC Chairman Brendan Carr threatened Disney if it didn’t muzzle the host.

Thursday’s episode of “The Daily Show” will feature 2021 Nobel Peace Prize Laureate Maria Ressa, who is the CEO of Rappler, a Columbia University professor and author of “How to Stand Up to a Dictator.” Ressa knows a thing or two about fighting a government that is trying to silence the free press; in the Philippines, she was arrested and later found guilty of libel due to the fact that Rappler was critical of then-President Rodrigo Duterte. Ressa said the charges were politically motivated.

“The Daily Show” airs at 11 p.m. ET on Comedy Central, with the episode available on Paramount+ the next morning. Stewart hosts alongside “The Daily Show” news team, including Ronny Chieng, Josh Johnson, Jordan Klepper, Michael Kosta, and Desi Lydic with Troy Iwata and Grace Kuhlenschmidt.
