Trevor Noah Presents Josh Johnson: # (Hashtag)

Desi Lydic dives into Trump’s ominous “big announcement,” the president renames the Persian Gulf, another US fighter jet falls off an aircraft carrier, and kids swap tariff-priced Barbies for the promise of economic freedom. In honor of the conclave, Lewis Black sounds off on the Vatican's mysterious process to select a new pope, including this year’s parlay options, the surprising number of cardinals taking lessons from the Oscar-nominated "Conclave" film, and the merch being sold to incompetent tourists. John Green, an award-winning author and global healthcare reform advocate, sits down to discuss his No. 1 New York Times bestseller, “Everything is Tuberculosis: The History and Persistence of Our Deadliest Infection.” He explains how a 2019 visit to a TB hospital in Sierra Leone inspired the book, why tuberculosis persists despite having a cure for the disease since the 1950s, how DOGE cuts are affecting global aid and the need for political will, and the infection's connection to everything, from the cowboy hat to weighted vests.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Jon Stewart sorts Trump's latest barrage of bulls**t into the "OK" and "NOT OK" piles, including telling kids to cut down on dolls and pencils, calling for Alcatraz to reopen, posting AI-generated images of himself as the Pope, and shrugging off the Constitution. Historian and best-selling author Rutger Bregman sits down to unpack his latest book, “Moral Ambition,” which is a call to action for people, especially those with education and privilege, to devote their talent and resources to careers and causes that make the world a better place. He describes how the political left has often made the mistake of placing moral purity above political relevance, and what they can learn from conservatives about building small movements into a larger, results-oriented coalition. Bregman also addresses the problem of what he calls our “inverse welfare society,” in which most high-paying, high-status jobs are inessential, and how his organization, The School for Moral Ambition, aims to reverse that structure by helping people quit their corporate jobs and transition into careers of positive impact.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
