    Republicans Give Thanks in Wisconsin

    2026-08-07 | 1h 16 mins.
    Trump crashes out over his helipad, Seth Mouton goes low in Massachusetts, and a Republican Congressman falls in love with being creepy as hell. This week, we have a an absolutely stacked show! Adam Conover goes toe-to-toe with Claude. 
    Sarah Tiana gives us the 411 on 1001 sports controversies, and Dan Taberski helps Lovett craft the perfect manifesto. And we'll add that to our list as we flip through a library full of Second Thoughts.

    Pirro Pressure

    2026-08-05 | 1h 10 mins.
    John Cornyn and Tom Tillis roll over for the last time, Trump flips over Jeanine Pirro’s Reflecting Pool call, and RFK Jr turns over a new leaf (and eats it!) with a brand-new cooking show. 
    This week, it’s Poorna Jagannathan to the rescue, as we talk HBO’s Lanterns, sex scenes after 50, and the weirdest DC superheroes of all time. 
    Meanwhile, Eliot Glazer gets an A+ on our Terrible Gays Quiz, and we defend the indefensible with I Don’t Care, I Lovett It. Then we close out the evening with a leisurely lap of Second thoughts.

    The Doctor is In…voking the Fifth

    2026-07-31 | 50 mins.
    Anthony Fauci gives Republicans the silent treatment, Mitch McConnell somehow says even less, and Joe Biden overshares enough for both of them. Daveed Diggs stops by to talk supervillains and elaborate musical contraptions, then we get just dumb enough with the great Anthony Michael Hall. The Egg of Truth turns up the heat but forgets to turn it off, and we decide if we regret that in a round of Second Thoughts.

    For Whom the Ballroom Tolls

    2026-07-29 | 58 mins.
    Lindsey Graham gets laid to rest, Donald Trump knocks on wood, and the DNC moves back in with its parents. Guy Branum aces the test to renew his Old Gay license, then Missi Pyle spoils us with stories of Galaxy Quest, fake nipples, and the bear at her wedding. And we can all bear to self-reflect with a round of Second Thoughts.
