    I always wondered who John Oliver was. Especially after the whole r/pics thing lol.

    Now I know, he’s a newsreader? Edit: Nope, comedian, thanks!

      He’s a comedian & actor who hosts a news comedy program that does a kind of gonzo journalism. It’s generally pretty well researched in my experience.

        You’re right I didn’t watch it, nor did I look him up when I wondered about it.

        I don’t have a lot of patience for videos, I’d normally only open written content.
