WASHINGTON (AP) — The annual White House press corps gala returned Saturday night along with the roasting of Washington, the journalists who cover it and the man at the helm: President Joe Biden.

"I realized there's another part of my life that I want to ... carry on exploring," he said halfway through the show; Comedy Central had been working with him for a while to balance the show's demanding production schedule. "I miss learning other languages. I miss going to other countries and putting on shows. I miss just being everywhere, doing everything." YouTube Comedy Central issued a statement praising Noah and noting there is no definitive timetable for his departure, saying they are working together on next steps — lending the sense his announcement surprised them, too. Despite hints about the show's workload and his fondness for standup comedy, Noah also had increasingly looked like a performer whose promise and abilities were growing beyond the steady grind of a late-night show on Comedy Central.
