LWT june 29 bI was a huge fan of John Oliver even before he took over hosting The Daily Show last summer, but his hosting duties raised the bar for snarky political satire — so much so, that HBO gave him his own show, Last Week Tonight, which airs Sundays. Last night’s episode, coming at the end of Gay Pride celebrations all around the U.S., spend the lion’s share of its time talking about gay issues, especially marriage equality and the insanity that is Ugandan anti-gay laws (and the American connection to them). If you don’t have HBO, check out the video after the jump to see it, especially his interview with Ugandan trans activist Pepe Julian Onziema. (And for more web-exclusive interview with Onziema, go here.)
