As Stephen says, sometimes the Comedy Train has left the Station and these tired Hobo legs didn’t catch the caboose. Tonight I have reached back for 2 recent clips (though not from the most recent show, yesterday). ‘On Notice’ is highlighted because I always liked that bit even when Top Gear stole it; and also …

Why Networks Should All Uninvite Kellyanne Conway
It seems that Kellyanne “Con Job” Conway has spouted one too many alternative facts for CNN after she totally blew any remaining credibility she might have had over the repeated claim that there was a terrorist massacre in Bowling Green, Kentucky that the media didn’t report.
