In the first episode of The Daily Show with Trevor Noah season 2016, comedian David Cross joins as a guest. The show, which airs on September 28, 2016, marks the beginning of Trevor Noah's second season as host.

The episode starts off with Trevor Noah giving a monologue about the current state of politics in the United States. As with most episodes of The Daily Show, Noah comments on news stories from the day and offers his own satirical take on them. Some of the topics he covers in this episode include the presidential campaign, the Black Lives Matter movement, and climate change.

After the monologue, Noah brings on David Cross as his guest. The two have a lively conversation, with Cross offering his own humorous take on politics and current events. They discuss some of the controversies surrounding the presidential election, with Cross poking fun at both Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton. They also talk about the role of comedy in addressing serious issues like police brutality and racism.

One of the highlights of the interview is when Noah and Cross discuss the issue of gun control. Cross, who is a staunch gun control advocate, offers some passionate arguments in favor of stricter regulations. Noah brings up the issue of the Second Amendment and the right to bear arms, which leads to a lively back-and-forth between the two.

Throughout the interview, Noah and Cross have a great rapport, with both of them clearly enjoying the conversation. While the show is known for its satire and biting humor, this episode also shows that it can be a platform for thoughtful discussions about serious issues.

After the interview with Cross, the show goes into a segment called "The Daywalker" which is about the Burkinis in France. This segment is classic Daily Show material, with the show's correspondents delivering humorous but insightful commentary on a controversial subject.

Overall, this episode of The Daily Show with Trevor Noah is a solid start to the second season. With his quick wit and incisive commentary, Noah shows that he is more than capable of filling Jon Stewart's shoes as host of the show.
