Summary

JD Vance continues his apology tour on Trump’s behalf at a TPUSA event, begging Gen Z not to leave MAGA over Iran and Epstein frustrations, and Ronny Chieng tries to make sense of Trump’s “Diet Coke is healthy” logic. Plus, since Trump’s Jesus AI images won’t stop, Grace Kuhlenschmidt steps in as a fully supportive, temporary “war pope." Professional naming expert Marco Glennwald III is losing his mind over the president's insistence on naming every goddamn thing after himself. Filmmaker and actor Zoe Lister-Jones sits down with Ronny to discuss starring in the Peacock series, "The Miniature Wife." They talk about co-starring as a billionaire and an evil scientist, portraying power dynamics in relationships through a fantastical lens, being exposed to feminist filmmaking from her video artist mother, and giving her TV series “Slip” – which she wrote, directed, and starred in – a new life on Peacock.
