Lewis Black is hard to describe since he's a different kind of individual. In a business that prizes youth and beauty, Black is over 70, short, bespectacled and often angry. Lewis Black is perhaps best known for his Back in Black segments on Comedy Central's

The Daily Show

. In these segments, Black features as a kind of alternative comedy Andy Rooney. In segments that are about four to six minutes long, he tackles issues like odd laws on the books. Recently, he sounded off on the CBD craze, wondering what, if any, benefits this product provides. Black maintains a presence on social media but also criticizes those platforms. Black is known for his scruffy appearance in these segments as contrasted with the dapper host, Trevor Noah.
