‘The Daily Show’ Takes Illinois Gov. J.B. Pritzker Drinking, Gets Him to Debate Whether ‘The Bear’ Is a Comedy (EXCLUSIVE)


Here's an exclusive video of 'The Daily Show' correspondent Jordan Klepper and Illinois Governor J.B. Pritzker drinking around Chicago.

While they participated in some daydrinking, Klepper got Pritzker to open up on a few key issues — such as whether Chicago-based Emmy winner “The Bear” should be considered a comedy. Klepper noted that the 1968 DNC left a stain on Chicago for years, although the party did return in 1996 for a much more successful event. The event featured meet-and-greets with “The Daily Show” news team while registering to vote, adopting dogs and grabbing free giveaways with doggie essentials.
