A friend of mine was on The Daily Show a few days ago. He got to correct Jon Stewart!

I met him a million years ago, volunteering on a project in my hometown, and we became friends. We aren’t close, but we have stayed in touch. Great guy.

He did really well! You couldn’t tell if he was an actor or who he said he was. Then I decided that yes, he was who he said he was and that he was also a good actor 🙂

At the very end of the clip, he steps on the laughter between Jon’s saying “So, the snot thing” and Mike’s about to say “…is what we’re [going with, planning on, etc].”

That’s when I knew that he wasn’t acting.

Yep, he really is who he says he is. I thought he did really well!

My bad. They left out the part mentioned in this thread. I should have checked.

I did get the [full episode](http://thedailyshow.cc.com/full-episodes/j17rjd/may-27--2015---rosabeth-moss-kanter) to work. Just start after the first commercial break. Or skip to 12:30 to get right to the point.
