Summary

Desi Lydic dives into the backlash over the Trump administration's immigration crackdown in Minnesota: GOPers push back against the DHS's attacks on Alex Pretti for carrying a legal firearm, Border Patrol Commander Greg Bovino gets a station reassignment and a screen time limit, and Trump resorts to finding Bovino's replacement via suggestions from "Fox & Friends" host Brian Kilmeade. Plus, Troy Iwata pitches a new look for Greg Bovino to match his demotion. Michael Kosta and Ronny Chieng duke it out on another edition of Sports War, debating who you should root for at the upcoming Super Bowl LX, the merits of “Heated Rivalry” putting NHL on the map, and “Nordick shame” after Olympic Norwegian ski jumpers were suspended for enlarging their crotches. Emmy-nominated actor Michael Urie sits down with Desi Lydic to talk about the new season of “Shrinking.” They discuss his busy year, which included a run on Broadway, getting his start on “Ugly Betty,” where the legendary Vanessa Williams gave him the agency to take big acting swings, his “Shrinking” character’s journey as a father, working with a baby scene partner, and the nicest thing co-star Harrison Ford ever said to him.
