In the clip above, Daily Show host Desi Lydic gives a detailed breakdown of Melania Trump's recent appearance on Fox & Friends, during which the First Lady announced an upcoming docuseries.
"Another Melania documentary?" asks a confused Lydic. "Melania, I love you, but unless you're living with Nathan Fielder in this thing, no-one is asking for this."
Lydic finishes with a parody trailer for the docuseries, inter-spliced with some impressively unenthusiastic Fox & Friends interview clips.

The battery spec Ryobi and Milwaukee don't put on the box (and why it's a big deal)
We all love our cordless power tools, especially with how easy it is to snap on a battery and get to work. And even though many of us own several tools from big names like Ryobi or Milwaukee, knowing which battery pack is the best one to buy or use is still somewhat confusing. That's by design, and here's the battery spec that neither brand puts on the box or label.

Amazon device deals are live ahead of October Prime Day: Shop Fire tablets, Blink cameras, Fire TV Sticks, and more
Amazon's Prime Big Deal Days (aka October Prime Day) is coming in hot, and with it, a boatload of discounts on Amazon's own devices. It officially runs from Oct. 6 through Oct. 7 this year and presents the perfect opportunity to kickstart your holiday shopping.
It only makes sense that Amazon would offer the biggest markdowns on its own devices. And since Amazon decided to swiftly jack up prices across its hardware range last month by as much as 60 percent(!), the October Prime Day sale couldn't come at a better time.
Things are starting a bit slow, but there are already several Fire tablets, Blink cameras, Fire TV streaming sticks and soundbars, and eero devices on sale. We're hoping to see some big price drops on Kindles and Echo devices, as these were the gadgets hit the hardest in the price hike, but so far they're MIA. Don't worry — we'll keep a watchful eye out and update this story if and when those deals appear.
Aside from devices themselves, Amazon's typical subscription deals for newcomers (and returning users) are already live. You can score three free months of Kindle Unlimited, four months of Audible Standard for 99 cents per month, or four free months of Amazon Music Unlimited.
We'll be tracking all the best Amazon device deals below, leading up to and throughout the Prime Big Deal Days sale. You do need to be a Prime member to score the biggest discounts during the event, so be sure to sign up before it kicks off.
Best Fire tablet deal Opens in a new window Credit: Amazon Amazon Fire HD 10 tablet $72.99 at Amazon$154.99 Save $82.00 Get Deal Why we like it
While it's hardly a new device, the Fire HD 10 tablet is still a solid pick for anyone who just wants a tablet to stream shows, check emails, and browse social media. Mashable's reviewer SaVanna Shoemaker called it "lighter and faster than its predecessors, with a long battery life and vivid picture that makes it great for on-the-go entertainment." Compared to other well-known tablets, she also adds that it's an "excellent value." It's not going to knock your socks off, but it'll get the job done and won't break the bank — especially now that it's on sale for only $72.99, a full 53% off its list price.

If you like sideloading apps, this streaming stick won't let you (go with the 4K Plus instead). It also offers support for Alexa+, Amazon Kids+, Amazon Luna, Xbox Game Pass, and NordVPN.

The best early October Prime Day kitchen deals: We found live deals Ninja and Keurig deals worth grabbing
Cooking at home is supposed to save money, but between grocery prices and the cost of decent appliances, it doesn't always feel like it.
Amazon's October Prime Day (officially Prime Big Deal Days) doesn't start until Oct. 6, but many early kitchen deals are already live. If you need a new air fryer, want to upgrade your morning coffee station, or just need to replace a worn-out pan without spending a fortune, we found the best early discounts to grab right now.

At $149.99 (down from $229.99), the Ninja Foodi 10-Quart DualZone is just 99 cents above its all-time low.
Instead of cooking in batches or relying on your oven, it gives you two separate 5-quart baskets that run at different temperatures simultaneously. The Smart Finish setting automatically syncs the timers so both baskets finish cooking at the exact same time, while Match Cook lets you duplicate settings across both sides for full 10-quart meals. It also includes six standard functions — air fry, broil, roast, bake, dehydrate, and keep warm — and has enough total capacity to handle about eight pounds of wings.

Jimmy Kimmel sums up Trump TV in 1 brutal sentence
Days after Donald Trump revoked White House access for journalists from CNN, Politico, and MS NOW, the administration launched a 24/7 "Trump TV" YouTube stream. And on Wednesday Jimmy Kimmel had one brutal sentence to sum it up.
"So far it's going about as well as everything else with Donald Trump's name on it," Kimmel says in the clip above. "It peaked with an audience of about 8,500 people on Monday night. By this morning they were down to fewer than 500 viewers. The only channel doing worse is the Strait of Hormuz."
Kimmel finishes with yet another parody ad, this time for a lineup of made-up Trump TV shows including "The All-White Lotus" and "America's Most Dangerous Windmills".

Pretty but lethal: 8BitDo’s new Ultimate 3 Xbox controller doesnt compromise on performance
TL;DR: Officially shipping across Europe and available in the U.S. for $99.99, the 8BitDo Ultimate 3 Lavender Dusk brings top-tier competitive features to Xbox, PC, and mobile. Packed with drift-free TMR joysticks and an eye-catching Rococo-inspired pastel shell, it blends high-end performance with a surprisingly gentle aesthetic.
Opens in a new window Credit: 8BitDo 8BitDo Ultimate 3 Lavender Dusk $99.99 at AmazonShop Now
It's not every day a high-performance gaming controller gets described as "gentle, calm, and romantic," but 8BitDo somehow pulled it off.
Distributed across European territories courtesy of Game Outlet Europe and available direct-to-consumer in the U.S., the new 8BitDo Ultimate 3 Lavender Dusk special edition trades the hyper-aggressive, stealth-bomber look of typical pro pads for a soft, Rococo-inspired pastel scheme in natural lavender tones.
While the exterior looks soft and gentle, the internals are built purely for competitive play. At the center of the hardware upgrade are new Tunnel Magnetoresistance (TMR) joysticks. Unlike standard analog sticks that wear down and drift over time, these use magnetic sensors to guarantee long-term durability and pinpoint sensitivity.
Credit: 8BitDoEven better, 8BitDo built physical "Force Rings" right around the base of the thumbsticks. Want tighter resistance for precise sniping in shooters? Dial the ring to increase tension. Need loose, lightning-fast flicks for racing or action games? Spin it back down.
The Hall Effect impulse triggers use contactless magnetic sensors with two-stage physical stops, allowing you to instantly convert them into hair-triggers for shooters. To expand your control options, 8BitDo paired the two remappable rear paddle buttons with extra high-speed L4 and R4 bumpers right beside the standard shoulder triggers.
PC gamers get a few exclusive perks, including 6-axis motion controls (gyro aiming) under 2.4GHz mode and an ultra-responsive 1,000Hz polling rate when plugged in via USB-C. For audio, a standard 3.5mm jack sits at the base for plugging in your wired headset.
Credit: 8BitDo Credit: 8BitDoThe included zero-contact wireless charging dock keeps your setup clean, automatically powering down and charging the controller when docked, then waking it back up the second you lift it. You also get tri-mode connectivity to jump seamlessly between Xbox consoles, Windows PC, and mobile via low-latency 2.4GHz wireless, USB-C wired (supporting up to a 1,000Hz polling rate on PC), or Bluetooth.
Ready to trade boring black-and-green hardware for soft pastel perfection? Grab the 8BitDo Ultimate 3 Lavender Dusk before this special edition sells out.

Your backyard is now a live TV show: The Birdfy app just landed on Roku
TL;DR: Birdfy just launched its official app on the Roku Channel Store, becoming the first smart birding brand to stream directly to TV screens. If you own a Birdfy camera feeder and a TV running Roku OS 15.1 or higher, you can now livestream your feeder, search clips by species, and cast footage to family members anywhere in the world.
Watching wild birds fight over sunflower seeds on a tiny phone screen is great, but watching it in full HD on your 65-inch TV hits different. Birdfy, the smart tech brand behind popular AI-powered bird feeders, baths, and birdhouses, just released its official app on the Roku Channel Store.
It marks the first time a smart birding ecosystem has built a dedicated app for a major TV streaming platform. If your TV or streaming stick runs Roku OS 15.1 or higher, you can pull up your backyard feeder live, watch motion-triggered highlight clips, or explore community sightings from 2.4 million users around the globe without leaving the couch.
The TV app connects directly to Birdfy’s motion-activated cameras and AI recognition engine, which identifies over 99% of North American backyard species. Instead of checking phone notifications, the Roku app organizes your saved footage into a full-screen grid sorted by time and bird species. Want to see every Blue Jay or Red-bellied Woodpecker that stopped by your yard this week? You can filter and extract those clips instantly.
SEE ALSO: What's new to streaming this week? (Sept. 25, 2026)The app also adds a clever way to keep family members connected from afar. With a simple "TV Cast Code" generated in the mobile app, you can share your favorite feeder moments with friends or family who live miles away, streaming your backyard clips directly to their Roku TV.
You can download the Birdfy app for free right now on the Roku Channel Store. It works on any Roku TV, streaming stick, or box running Roku OS 15.1 or newer.
