The Truth About The World Cup & "Stirring The Pot" | John Oliver x Trevor Noah

"FIFA is a terrible organization that happens to produce the best imaginable product. It's like a drug organization making the greatest cocaine."

In this unfiltered conversation, John Oliver and Trevor Noah dissect the bizarre duality of loving football while hating the corruption behind it. They dive deep into the art of satire, revealing why "stirring the pot" isn't just a job—it's a psychological need to disrupt the status quo and expose the ugliness hidden behind polite society.

John opens up about his time in South Africa interviewing racists, the specific trick he used to break down their "polite" facade, and the terrifying moment Jon Stewart asked him to host The Daily Show. From the "beautiful cocaine" of the World Cup to the meticulous fact-checking required to avoid lawsuits, this episode pulls back the curtain on how investigative comedy is actually made.
