At just 24 years old, Young-White takes over the title last held on the show by 2 Dope Queens breakout Jessica Williams, who joined The Daily Show at 22 and still reigns as its youngest-ever correspondent.
Young-White has written on American Vandal and Big Mouth, but despite the silliness of those credits, he isn’t afraid to get political with his humor, as you can tell based off his Twitter.
oh so the world is ending ending
