Judaism is a theme in the biography. Born and raised a Jew, Jon Stewart regularly refers to his heritage in his stories, sometimes simply for flavor, and sometimes to make a point. In the opening story, "Breakfast at Kennedy's," his unnamed narrator is the only Jewish student at Connecticut's prestigious Choate Preparatory School, allowed to attend because his father runs the commissary. Jack Kennedy, the future president, is two years ahead of him and is the only Roman Catholic. As minorities they bond.
