John Oliver Searches for Glenn Beck and Bill O'Reilly's Good Old Days

Cable news rabble-rousers like Glenn Beck, Sean Hannity and Bill O'Reilly love to rouse their rabble by lamenting the loss of the America they grew up in, an idyllic and simpler bygone era. So, on last night's Daily Show, John Oliver went looking for these so-called good old days, and it wasn't so easy. But maybe he just didn't go back far enough. From what I understand, there was a pretty nice period of time that ended about 250,000 years ago.

The Daily Show airs Monday through Thursday at 11pm / 10c. And be sure to tune in for the series premiere of John Oliver's New York Stand-Up Show, Friday at 11pm / 10c.
