This week is momentous. As you all know (or should know), Jon Stewart, king of the Jewish talk show hosts, is stepping down from “The Daily Show” after an epic 16-year run.

South African comedian Trevor Noah will replace him as host — but never in our hearts.

Jon’s imminent departure, combined with the end of “Chelsea Lately,” makes us worry that Jews are disappearing from the late night circuit. But lest you despair, we’ve compiled a list of some of his best (and most Jewish) moments dating back to 1999.

Did you know that the Daily Show website has a search function? You’d be amazed at the number of clips (approximately 711) that pop up when you type in words like “Jewish” and “Hanukkah.” Five hours later, here we are.

Check out the hilarious results below.

Bonus: If you make it all the way to Hanukkah you get Stephen Colbert circa 2000!

Why I became the Forward’s editor-in-chief

You are surely a friend of the Forward if you’re reading this. And so it’s with excitement and awe — of all that the Forward is, was, and will be — that I introduce myself to you as the Forward’s newest editor-in-chief.

And what a time to step into the leadership of this storied Jewish institution! For 129 years, the Forward has shaped and told the American Jewish story. I’m stepping in at an intense time for Jews the world over. We urgently need the Forward’s courageous, unflinching journalism — not only as a source of reliable information, but to provide inspiration, healing and hope.

That’s where you come in. Gifts of any size keep the Forward free and accessible to everyone and ensure we have the resources we need to power the Forward at this critical time for American Jews.

Don't just read the Forward - invest in it. Will you support our work today?

— Alyssa Katz, editor-in-chief
