5 Late Night Shows To Watch

2016 has been a crazy year, I don't think any of you are surprised by that statement. One thing that has got me through this year is the late night shows. I'm not just talking about Jimmy Fallon or Jimmy Kimmel, who in their own way, are great late night hosts. I have a list here of shows that will help you make it through the rest of the election season and all the craziness that will follow.

1. Full Frontal with Samantha Bee

I cannot tell you how much I love this woman. She has to be one of my favorite late night hosts. She hosts the show Monday nights on TBS at 10:30 p.m. She is an unapologetically feminist and does not shy away from expressing her own opinion. For those of you who may recognize her, she was on the Daily Show with Jon Stewart. She is loud and in your face and I love her for it. I highly recommend watching her every Monday.

2. The Late Show with Stephen Colbert

How could I not put this man on the list? Stephen Colbert is a legend. People may know him as the character from the Colbert Report but he is just as funny out of character. Stephen has taken over David Letterman's spot and does it well. His takedowns of Trump are brilliant and his "Hunger for Power Games" are hilarious. Stephen is maybe my favorite after Samantha Bee. His show is on CBS at 11:35

3. Daily Show with Trevor Noah

I have to admit, I love Jon Stewart. Jon left me breathless and I felt like he was my voice. So when I started watching Trevor I was apprehensive. I should not have been. Trevor Noah is hilarious. He keeps me laughing throughout the entire show and I feel like he is the perfect replacement for Jon. Trevor attacks both sides and sometimes he can't help himself and laughs out loud which I love. He exposes the bullsh*t and that is what we need. The Daily Show is every Monday-Wednesday at 11:30 p.m. on Comedy Central.

4. Late Night with Seth Meyers


I came across one of Seth's videos by accident. It was one of his 'Closer Looks' and I fell in love. He is brutal in his attacks of Trump and I love it. I loved Seth on SNL and he is doing a great job on his own show. He is original and offers a unique perspective. His videos have left me crying because I have laughed so hard. His show is every Monday-Thursday at 12:37 a.m. on NBC.

5. Last Week Tonight with John Oliver


I could not end this list without including John Oliver. His segments on his show are researched all week so his segments present all the facts. He tackles issues from abortion, cyber bullying to police brutality. I highly recommend watching his show if you have HBO. I do not have that but I watch the segments on YouTube and they are funny and informative at the same time. His show is on HBO at 11 p.m. on Sundays.

AI music threatens creativity

In an age where artificial intelligence can mimic the voice of Freddie Mercury or reimagine pop hits as synthwave ballads, a new frontier has emerged — one that blurs the line between innovation and erosion. While AI offers undeniable benefits in technical domains, its intrusion into creative arts, especially music, raises urgent questions. Not just about copyright, but about culture, education, and the very soul of artistic expression.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

Why Your Astrological Sign May Not Match Your Personality

We are all more than just one sign.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

The Importance Of Being A Good Person

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
