Trevor Noah Will Kick Off New Comedy Tour a Month After His "The Daily Show" Departure

Image Source: Comedy Central Trevor Noah is leaving "The Daily Show," and he already has big plans for the future. After a seven-year run on the late-night Comedy Central staple, the comedian is ready to explore other career ventures. Following his exit announcement on the Sept. 29 episode of his show, Noah stopped by "The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon" to discuss his departure from "The Daily Show" in depth. "Everything is what I'm going to be doing." "Why not?" Noah asked on Oct. 13 when Fallon questioned his decision to leave "The Daily Show." "People ask you this question as if you're telling them bad news, and I can understand that," he adds. " . . . I think of this as a joyous thing. I lived through a crazy time; I shared it with people who were kind enough to share it with me. We lived through something, and what's on the other side? I don't take anything for granted anymore. I don't believe that life is a given. I don't assume that things will come to me. So I just go, 'This is it. This is time.'"
