## Resource

This week's host Desi Lydic sits down with Daily Show writer Devin Delliquanti to recap the latest news, and preview the week to come. They talk about Trump rage-quitting his interview with Kristen Welker on "Meet the Press," the disturbing return of a flesh-eating screwworm in the U.S., an albino buffalo in Bangladesh that found new life as a Trump lookalike, and the sky-high price of World Cup tickets. Plus, the two discuss the all-consuming rise of Knicks fever in NYC and give their take on the upcoming UFC fight at the White House. -- The Daily Show airs weeknights at 11/10c on Comedy Central.
