‘The Daily Show’ live VP debate episode: Time, host, where to watch

Like with the presidential debate last month, the late-night satire news program “The Daily Show” will go live after Tuesday night’s vice presidential debate between Tim Walz and JD Vance.
While the post-debate live episode in September was hosted by Jon Stewart himself, who returned to the show to cover the 2024 election with his “Indecision 2024” series, Tuesday’s installment will be led by return guest host Michael Kosta.
Previously, the show also aired similar episodes after the debate between Trump and President Joe Biden and recorded weeks of shows at the Republican National Convention and the Democratic National Convention. The election cycle and Stewart’s return have done well for the show’s ratings, racking up more than 3 million viewers on his first night back behind the desk.
Here’s how to watch the live post-debate broadcast.
