Jon Stewart might make millions laugh on The Daily Show, but make no mistake: He’s no everyman. “You sit there in your fancy chair and your fancy suit and you pretend to be a man of the people!” pro wrestler Seth Rollins raved on Thursday’s episode. “The truth is you will do anything to appease the corporate overlords.”

The rant was, of course, a setup for another tongue-in-cheek tribute—this time honoring all the times Stewart has “plugged” corporations. Stewart has had wonderful things to say about Lowe’s, GoPro, and Aquafresh, but it’s Arby’s that Stewart has raved about the most. “Arby’s: Proof Jon Stewart cannot destroy a brand by telling people what’s in it.”
