Comedy Central’s “The Daily Show” has consistently addressed political hot topics with wit and its own unique tone, starting with such stalwarts as host Jon Stewart and correspondents Stephen Colbert, John Oliver and Samantha Bee and continuing with current host Trevor Noah and correspondents like Dulcé Sloan.

As part of Heard on the Hill’s “Seriously Funny” feature, our own Kathryn Lyons talked to Sloan about her new podcast, “That Blackass Show,” life on “The Daily Show,” how she keeps her comedy personal and why she still has to wait to be seated.
