The Daily Show S02E83 - Gabby Thomas

Desi Lydic tackles Donald Trump's glitchy interview with Elon Musk on X, in which a slurring Trump announced plans to close the Department of Education, played '90s pop culture trivia with Vladimir Putin, and revealed his new celebrity crush. On the heels of the Paris Olympics, three-time gold medalist Gabby Thomas joins Desi Lydic to discuss her big wins for Team USA, a moment she spent five years training for. They talk about her mom's heartwarming reaction and lifelong encouragement, how Thomas's Harvard degree in neurobiology informed her athletic preparation and self-care, and advocating for equal access to healthcare through volunteer work in Texas.
