Trump Puppy-Dogs Japan’s New PM and Rants About Magnets to U.S. Troops | Lucy Dacus
Desi Lydic breaks down Trump’s trip to Japan, which included a shockingly firm handshake from new Prime Minister Sanae Takaichi, decadent gifts to win the president’s heart, and a quick survey for the U.S. Navy about magnets. Plus, Troy Iwata is pretty sure Trump's embarrassing antics in Tokyo are the worst things America has ever done to Japan.
Grammy Award-winning musician Lucy Dacus joins Desi Lydic to discuss “Forever Is a Feeling: The Archives,” an expanded edition of her latest record, which has been called the “most romantic album of 2025.” They talk about what makes a good love song, why writing this music felt like therapy, whether fame has impacted her creative process, and how her song “Best Guest” inspired her to get ordained and perform weddings on tour at a time when the Trump administration is threatening LGBTQ+ unions.

Trump Whines He’s “Unappreciated” & Self-Soothes with Ballroom and Third-Term Talk | Zohran Mamdani
After Trump echoes a complaint that he's unappreciated by Americans for his "sacrifices," Jon Stewart looks at all the things the president has accomplished without getting proper recognition, like going against protocol to tear down the East Wing of the White House for an ostentatious ballroom, or blowing up Venezuelan boats without due process. Jon also takes a look at the Republicans properly eating s**t for the president and determines that a third term is the only appropriate show of gratitude for this poor little billionaire.
New York City mayoral candidate Zohran Mamdani sits down with Jon Stewart to discuss building a campaign on delivering politics that “aspire for more than what you’re living through,” ensuring his tax plans aren’t just popular but precedented, taking safety beyond the NYPD to job and housing security, reaching the hearts of young voters with inviting rhetoric, and whether the days of endorsements deciding elections have come to an end.
