John Oliver to Host Weekly Comedy on HBO

Congratulations to John Oliver! Oliver, our favorite fill-in for Jon Stewart on the Daily Show, will host his own weekly comedy show on HBO. After Oliver's successful summer fill-in stint for Jon Stewart, there was talk of Oliver succeeding Stewart on the Daily Show. However, HBO executives  were watching and impressed by Oliver's hosting performance (Jon Stewart is a hard act to follow) offered him a weekly show. Much like the Daily Show, Oliver's show will take a  satirical look at the news, politics and current events. The show is set to debut in 2014 and air on Sunday nights.

Let's VOTE and settle down America.  And, no matter what anyone says,  brands have found a way through social media  to maintain income growth and stay relevant. Good for them! In Memoriam    ....Saw the Conversation Circle come back together after a long hiatus. There was little time to exchange  opinions and views . Many of us were caught up in changing careers and dealing with family demands. Then the pandemic arrived, and so did uncertainty. But, now we're back on track!

When does the time change ? The first Sunday in November according to the Farmers' Almanac . It also lists a draw back to this extra hour of sleep, or whatever you want to do with it, as commuting home in the dark.  Well for those of us working from home now, this is no longer a dreaded consequence of that extra hour of sleep. We're already home! Happy Halloween! 🍁🎃🕑👻
