Roy Wood Jr. could be the next host of 'The Daily Show.' He's in Kansas City this weekend

Ahead of his comedy shows in Kansas City on June 2 and 3, Roy Wood Jr. recalled what it was like to host the White House Correspondent's Dinner and discussed why he'd be honored if he was selected as the next host of "The Daily Show."
Roy Wood Jr. has worn numerous hats during his impressive career in comedy.

Beyond his regular stand-up performances, he has hosted podcasts for Comedy Central, was featured on "Last Comic Standing" and is perhaps most well-known as a correspondent on "The Daily Show."

Speculation has been heavy that Wood could leave behind his correspondent position to succeed Trevor Noah, who recently stepped down, as the show's next host. He told KCUR's Up To Date that if he is offered the job, he would take it.
