I guess I need to watch late night comedy more often, as I had never heard of John Oliver, but I was really impressed with his in-depth analysis and satire of the marijuana situation in the US. Here's a bit more about his background: Oliver began hosting Last Week Tonight, a late-night talk show that takes a satirical look at news, politics and current events in 2014. His initial two-year contract with HBO was extended through 2017. Oliver says he has full creative freedom, including free rein to criticise corporations, given HBO's ad-free subscription model. He has been named on the list of Time magazine's "100 Most Influential People" in 2015.
