Summary

Jordan Klepper highlights why the recent Kansas City Chiefs parade shooting is a case for firmer gun control in terms a football fan can understand. Plus, Trump could get off for election interference because of District Attorney Fani Willis’s romance with prosecutor Nathan Wade. Grace Kuhlenschmidt takes us through the romantic gestures of past presidents whose mistress stories are straight out of a rom-com. And Cord Jefferson, writer and director of the Academy Award-nominated film, “American Fiction,” shares how his experiences in Hollywood contributed to his desire to expand any limited ideas of Black stories or Black characters, why he thinks it’s good that his movie makes some people feel uncomfortable, and how the film’s success is feeling very meta.
