On the topic of leaving, Stewart noted that he won’t miss being on television, but will miss creating and collaborating with his team of Daily Show employees. And that, as a result, it’s time for someone else to takeover who can bring their entire attention to the job, who’ll be there in “full spirit and mind.” He said that even a little restlessness from the host wasn’t a good thing for The Daily Show. He also added that, post-Daily Show, it’s likely he’ll work more hours, not less, but said that those hours will be on his terms, giving him more time at home.Īnother reason Stewart gave was restlessness. He also joked that you can’t go 9 to 9 for 16 years and expect that your kids will listen to you when you tell them not to smoke pot. And he joked that he only has four years left until his kids want nothing to do with him. In other words, he wants more work/life balance. One of which was he wanted to have more flexibility with his schedule so he could spend more time with his family.
