'Daily Show' correspondent ronny Chieng argues with an employee at John's Water Ice in South Philly.

Water ice and ice water.

The juxtaposition of two simple words makes all the difference. To Philadelphians, it's like the difference between, say, an apple and a chair.

The play on words and the local, frozen delicacy became the center of a comedic mini-production for "The Daily Show with Trevor Noah" last week while the Democratic National Convention was in town.

The video, with correspondents Ronny Chieng and Roy Wood Jr., also features an appearance from U.S. Sen. Bob Casey who demonstrates “how to network” at an event with a 4 a.m. “last call”.
