Desi Lydic covers Congress grilling Kash Patel over buried details of the Epstein files and Trump's attempt to put an ocean between himself and the Epstein controversy via a castle-filled king cosplay in the U.K. Lewis Black has learned what a Labubu is, and he's pissed. He roasts every aspect of Labubu culture, from Labu-baptisms to toy theft, and offers Americans an equally stupid doll alternative to waste their money on. Actor Cooper Hoffman sits down with Desi to discuss his role in the new film, “The Long Walk.” They talk about how Stephen King’s dystopian novel feels relevant today, the physical challenges of walking 15 miles a day while acting, learning to lean into humanity with Hoffman’s co-star David Jonsson, and the importance of having people walk beside you through life.

Desi Lydic unpacks the toxic internet landscape in the aftermath of Charlie Kirk’s assassination, where members of the Trump administration have called for people to lose their jobs for criticizing Kirk, the attorney general has seemingly forgotten the meaning of free speech, and Trump only wants to discuss White House renovations. Plus, Michael Kosta offers some solid reasoning for going back to the ‘80s. After siccing the National Guard on Washington D.C., Trump is chomping at the bit to militarize other Democrat-run U.S. cities, including New York. Grace Kuhlenschmidt asks New Yorkers if they think the National Guard has what it takes to make it in the Big Apple. Michael Strassner and Jay Duplass sit down with Desi Lydic to discuss the critically acclaimed independent film they co-wrote, “The Baltimorons,” which Strassner stars in and Duplass directed. They share how their friendship and collaboration began with an Instagram DM and a sweaty meet-cute and how making the romantic caper comedy, which is based on Strassner’s personal journey with sobriety after a failed suicide attempt, was a cathartic experience for the comedian.
