He cited as reason that he missed travelling and touring with stand-up comedy after being grounded by the COVID-19 pandemic.

I spent two years in my apartment, not on the road, he said. I realised there's another part of my life that I want to carry on exploring.

Noah will officially leave The Daily Show on 8 December, according to Geo TV.
