Melber and his variety of Guests

Among the issues Melber discussed, he fed the contemporary viewer with topics related to politics, racism, social media, twitter and hip-hop. It assembled him as a unique host who has garnered attention from the young and above generations. 

Likewise, in December 2017, Melber aired a special series of episodes where he kneaded the accusations against the Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg after the discoveries of the Mueller Investigation.

Fake news and wrong information circulated during the 2016 presidential elections had significantly impacted American politics. It had also shown Russian involvement in the political business of the nation. Throughout the investigation, Zuckerberg claimed that he and his company was in no position to have the knowledge of the circulation. Moreover, those circulations and their types were also based on users' personal information.

Following that, Melber's other guest in 2017 was former Sheriff Joe Arpaio, running for Senate for Arizona. Arpaio was previously convicted of criminal contempt by court for racially profiling his perpetrators. But then, President Trump had pardoned him and released him from the misdemeanor conviction. 

However, the legal significance of 'pardon' was accepting the crime and admitting to having felt 'guilt' over the committed crime. 

On the show, Arpaio blatantly revealed that Trump pardoned him and set him free without knowing the significance of the action. Melber explained its meaning and comprehended that he admitted to having committed the crime on a live show. 

Besides that, Melber is also known to have invited guests from the hip-hop community. It included rapper Havoc, an announcement on Mobb Deep's upcoming album, and musicians Talib Kweli with Fat Joe discussing Eminem's politically-charged rap lyrics.
