Jon Stewart Just Called Out That UFC Event and He Didn’t Hold Back

Jon Stewart speaking passionately on the set of The Daily Show
  • Jon’s big Knicks celebration
  • The shout-out to NYC workers
  • Why he hated the UFC event

We just saw Jon Stewart’s latest episode of The Daily Show. He was so happy at first. He started by cheering for the Knicks. It is their first big win like this since 1973. The energy was high. You could practically feel the grit of the city through the screen.

He gave a loud shout-out to the sanitation workers. It was a beautiful moment for New York. The vibe was all about community and joy. The screen was filled with those classic blue and orange colors. It felt like a real win for the people.

But then the mood shifted fast. Jon talked about the recent UFC event. He did not like it. At all. He called it a “god-awful mockery.” He thinks it made sports look bad and hurt our country’s dignity. While everyone else is checking the weather in Delhi or the HCL share price, Jon is worried about our pride.

It is a lot to handle. Maybe you need a distraction? Disha Patani just leased her luxury Khar West home for a huge sum of money. Or if you want a new look, Teddi Mellencamp just showed off her new wig and we are totally feeling it. Sadly, not every show is doing well. That celebrity autobiography show is actually closing early.

Our Take

We think Jon is right to be so vocal. He has that classic, honest New Yorker aesthetic. He is loud and proud. We love the way he protects the things he cares about. Whether it is a basketball team or the dignity of the country, he stays real. It is a refreshing style in a world that feels fake sometimes.
