John Oliver fans are having a field day on YouTube of late, with Seasons 1 and 2 of Last Week Tonight streaming for free on the platform.

The first season of the comedian's late night show was uploaded to the platform in April, and now the second season has been added.

In Season 2, released in 2015, Oliver delves into a colossal range of topics from transgender rights to televangelism, the FIFA corruption case to America's enhanced interrogation program, anti-refugee rhetoric in the U.S. and online harassment to the war in Syria. They're stories from almost 10 years ago, but sadly some are still as relevant as ever.
