Iran Says No Progress in US Talks, Knicks Take NBA Finals Game 1

Today's top stories, with context, in just 15 minutes.
On today's podcast:
1) Iran said there had been no recent progress in talks with the US over an interim peace deal, while fighting persisted in Lebanon despite Washington’s declaration of a ceasefire between Israel and the country.Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi said late Wednesday that “no tangible progress has been achieved in the negotiation process” with the US, according to the semi-official Tasnim news agency.
2) US forces intercepted Iranian ballistic missiles and drones aimed at neighboring Middle East countries and struck a command center in Iran in response. The exchange followed days of Israeli military escalation against Iran-backed Hezbollah in Lebanon, prompting a phone call between President Donald Trump and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. Tensions remain high after the US attacked Iranian radar and command-and-control sites, with Iran trying to target an air base in retaliation and the US and Israel having different ideas about what an end to the war should look like.
3) The New York Knicks' winning streak lives on, and they struck first in the NBA Finals.Jalen Brunson scored 30 points, Karl-Anthony Towns finished with 18 points and 12 rebounds, and the Knicks erased a 14-point second-half deficit to beat the San Antonio Spurs 105-95 in Game 1 of the finals on Wednesday night.
