The World vs. Jimmy Kimmel - Charlie Kirk's widow's new comments
The focus is on the back-and-forth between Jimmy Kimmel and various critics including Erica Kirk, widow of Charlie Kirk, and media personalities like Jesse Waters and Bill Maher. The controversy stems from a Trump joke by Kimmel, with Mac emphasizing it's a Trump joke rather than a comment on Charlie Kirk's murder. Mac also covers Jon Stewart's return to The Daily Show, Seth Meyers' ongoing feud with Donald Trump, and a contentious segment with Jimmy Fallon. Stephen Colbert shares anecdotes about the power of comedy, and Whitney Cummings announces her engagement to skateboarder Chris Cole, adding more celebrity buzz to the mix. Meanwhile, the Riyadh Comedy Festival and its participants receive criticism for ignoring human rights issues. Overall, it's a feisty episode filled with comedy industry news and personal insights.
