The full lineup of this week’s hosts for The Daily Show hasn’t been revealed yet, but given last week’s news, it is certain that Jon Stewart will be on this Monday. The host used to be a regular on Thursdays, but will now return to his usual Monday night post. Stewart recently answered a question from an audience member about the best advice he’s ever received, to which he referenced David Letterman‘s appearance on the final episode of The Jon Stewart Show. Letterman told Stewart on air to not “confuse cancelation with failure”.
