Desi Lydic takes on the only story big enough to eclipse the Epstein files: Sydney Sweeney’s controversial denim ad. Public pushback over the ad's supposed white supremacy undertones has the GOP spinning out of control, while Megyn Kelly rebuilds the glass ceiling with accusations that America is jealous of Sweeney’s “hottness.” Trump's association with Jeffrey Epstein has been all over the news lately, but Jordan Klepper knows from years of talking to MAGA that if Trump does come out in the files, we can expect a very rational response. Emmy Award-winning actor and producer Tony Hale talks to Desi Lydic about his new film, “Sketch,” sharing how the film’s story about a child’s drawings coming to life was inspired by writer-director Seth Worly’s sister, and how the movie can open up conversations for adults and kids alike about the importance of expressing emotions. He also reflects on the iconic “oddball” characters he played on “Veep” and “Arrested Development” and the joke that took him 15 years to get. Learn more about your ad choices.
