The Daily Show With Jon Stewart

If he had to choose another line of work, Jon Stewart says, he’d be “an exotic dancer. But just to put my kid through school.”

Topless bars are safe for the time being, as Stewart skewers the news from his anchor seat on The Daily Show. While taping a brace of interviews for this week’s episodes—guests include Peter (Chicago Hope) Berg, Patrick (no relation!) Stewart, Queen (The Queen Latifah Show) Latifah and David Alan (“I’m available! Call me!”) Grier—the host bragged that the gig affords him almost all the respect a real newsman gets. “Plus 10 percent off at Red Lobster.”

But like any showbiz vet, Stewart has a Plan B. If The Daily Show ever tanks, he says confidently, he’ll “crawl into a bottle of Absolut with a Tom Waits tape.”
