Trump Defends Russia but Admires Macron

Elon's Email Ultimatum and Feet Stuff

Michael Kosta Dips a Toe into DOGE

Wendi McLendon-Covey

Moment of Zen

Desi Lydic tackles Trump's continued defense of Russia to Fox News's dismay and his captivation with Emmanuel Macron's accent, despite the French president's attempts to sway him. She dives into the recent failures of Elon Musk’s Department of Government Efficiency, including the “DOGE ultimatum” issued to federal workers via email. Plus, as government workers protest, Michael Kosta unpacks the symbolism in an AI-generated video circulating of Trump and, uh, Musk’s toes.

Actor Wendi McLendon-Covey joins Desi Lydic to discuss how her improv background prepared her for a career in comedy and the improvised sitcom pilot they worked on together years ago that led to a misguided boat purchase. McLendon-Covey also talks about the increased appreciation for healthcare workers she’s gained from playing a hospital administrator on the new NBC show “St. Denis Medical,” and the next fake profession she'd like to play.
