Hear: The Daily Show Podcast without Jon Stewart

The Daily Show has launched today an awesome behind-the-scenes podcast that will feature writers, producers and correspondents of the show. But no Jon Stewart.
Think of it as a meta-show about the show.

The opening episode features head-writer Elliott Kalan and correspondent Jessica Williams. They welcome producer Sara Taksler and writer Jo Miller for a conversation about mining comedy out of the issue of sexual assault on college campuses. Then, veteran Daily Show writer J.R. Havlan looks back on 18 years at the show.

You can clickety the above link to take a listen.

If you’re a musician, you can also tweet your own covers of the Daily Show theme song using the hashtag #MyDailyShowTheme. There’s also this form to fill-out apparently.
