Lovett or Leave It

Former Obama speechwriter, self-described comedian and Pod Save America co-host Jon Lovett takes the stage for a new season of the hit show that dared guests from Danny DeVito to Amy Klobuchar to ask “What is this?” and “Where am I?”

Each week, Jon breaks down the biggest and dumbest stories in politics to help you keep up with and laugh at the news, with big guests and surprising conversations you won’t find anywhere else.

New episodes every Saturday morning on your podcast feed and on YouTube. And if you’re in LA, come to a taping. You’ll be amazed by what we cut from the live show.

America’s 250th birthday is here, and boy, is she pissed you didn’t get her anything. This week, Trump puts the grimace in Great American State Fair; baby eagles put in their ear plugs, and Bush’s Baked Beans single-handedly puts an end to the American experiment. Meanwhile, Mark Duplass helps us cling to reason, while X Mayo brings her X-factor to a little U.S. history quiz. And we go out with a bang, and a round of Second Thoughts.

Wet Hot American Bummer

Mamdani's candidates win big in New York. Pesticides win big at the Supreme Court. And we all win when John Stamos stops by to talk Beach Boys, Full House, and why his dad finally let him quit flipping burgers. Then Jodie-Turner Smith waxes philosophical about aliens, accents, Michael Fassbender, and a gripping defense of toe shoes, courtesy of the Egg of Truth. And don’t worry, baby: we have plenty of Second Thoughts to go around.
