Today's top stories, with context, in just 15 minutes.

On today's podcast:

1) Iran said the latest US proposal partly bridged the gap between the warring sides, but comments from the Islamic Republic's supreme leader clouded the outlook for a breakthrough. The US has demanded Tehran hand over its enriched uranium and commit to ending enrichment, while Iranian leaders have balked at those terms in public. The conflicting statements on key issues left it unclear if the two sides were any closer to a deal after renewed threats of escalation in recent days.

2) NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte welcomed President Donald Trump's announcement to send additional troops to Poland. The announcement increased a sense of confusion within the alliance, with officials saying they would prefer US moves to be coordinated. The US is expected to announce adjustments to national forces set to be made available in case of crisis or war, which may include cuts to troops in NATO's force model.

3) Stephen Colbert hosted the last episode of his namesake show on CBS, mostly steering clear of political jokes and criticism of President Trump. The show featured a parade of actors and comedians, including Bryan Cranston and Paul McCartney, who closed the program with a performance of the Beatles hit Hello, Goodbye. Colbert's show is being replaced by Comics Unleashed, a program hosted by Byron Allen, who said the show steers clear of politics and intends to make money selling ads.

US-Iran Talks Get Complicated; Stephen Colbert's Final Show

Today's top stories, with context, in just 15 minutes.
On today's podcast:
1) Nvidia reported another blowout earnings report and beat analyst estimates, but faced skepticism from some investors. The tech giant aims to rely less on giant data center operators and predicts other businesses and governments will become a bigger source of revenue for its chips and computing products to support artificial intelligence ambitions. The company faces growing competition from chipmakers trying to carve out a piece of the AI computing business, and major buyers of Nvidia's technology are developing their own in-house components. Nvidia's sales gained 85% to $81.6 billion in the three months ended April 26, and the company boosted its quarterly dividend and announced $80 billion in stock repurchases, but investors were not swayed and shares slipped about 1% in late trading.
2) SpaceX filed for an initial public offering, revealing billions in losses and a super-voting share plan allowing Elon Musk to keep the company under his control. The company's goals include a human settlement on Mars with at least 1 million inhabitants and making data centers in space a reality, part of a $28.5 trillion total addressable market. The IPO is targeted to raise as much as $75 billion, with Musk standing to benefit significantly, including potentially receiving as many as 1 billion shares if he meets certain goals.
3) Iran is assessing the latest peace proposal from the US, as the countries seek to avoid a resumption of hostilities. The exchange of messages is based on Iran’s 14-point text, which suggests a short-term deal that would see Iran reopen the Strait of Hormuz and the US lift a blockade of Iranian ports. Iran gave no indication of when it would respond to the US and reiterated it wants a commitment that fighting will end “on all fronts, including Lebanon.”
