About this episode
Comedian Hasan Minhaj has made his career off of his social commentary; an episode of his talk show “Patriot Act” was even removed by Netflix after a legal complaint from the Saudi government. His second Netflix special “The King’s Jester” is now streaming, poking fun at hedge funds as well as his own life, and he’s bringing his humor to Squawk. In a conversation spanning Yeezy and the Adidas decision to terminate its partnership with Kanye West, the United Kingdom’s new PM Rishi Sunak, and Saudi-U.S. relations. Plus, CNBC’s Dan Murphy reports from Riyadh as global investors convene for this year’s “Davos in the Desert.”
