#903. Comedian, actor, theater kid, chaos enthusiast — Gianmarco Soresi joins Kaitlyn for a laugh-out-loud, no-notes-needed episode recorded in New York City.Gianmarco opens up about starting out as a musical theater kid with Broadway dreams, how singing still sneaks its way into his comedy, his time on movie sets (yes, one involved J.Lo), and why he genuinely enjoys being bullied at SoulCycle.They riff on reality TV, producers, hecklers, triggering April Fools jokes, long-term relationships, creative highs, embarrassing on-stage moments, and a very questionable TV show idea involving… small weens.It's silly, honest, and the kind of conversation that only happens when two people are fully cracking each other up — basically, the perfect episode to throw on when you want to laugh and feel like you're hanging out with friends. Enjoy

Are President Trump's tariffs illegal? Will the independence of federal agencies be a thing of the past? Is birthright citizenship about to be taken away?

Alex talks to two plaintiffs at the center of of these cases, Toymaker Rick Woldenberg and former FTC Commissioner Rebecca Slaughter. Then, she sits down with NYU Professor and Strict Scrutiny host Melissa Murray to put it all into context and talk about what the long term impacts will be of a Supreme Court where corruption and partisanship are now out in the open.  Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Yesterday we stepped into one of the most unlikely Christmas passages—2 Corinthians 6. At first glance, beatings, sleepless nights, and hunger don't feel like they belong anywhere near Christmas. But when we look at Jesus' actual birth story—born out of wedlock, far from home, in a borrowed stable, fleeing as a refugee—we realize this is the world he willingly entered. And it's the world we still live in. Christmas isn't the promise of a perfect life; it's the announcement that God stepped into a broken one. Paul describes the tension of following Jesus as “sorrowful, yet always rejoicing.” That's Christmas. Real life, real pain, real joy, real hope. Jesus doesn't wait for your life to look ideal. He comes into the life you really have. And he gives you a joy that circumstances can't create or take away. This week, fix your eyes on what is unseen—on him.

“Who is the greatest stand-up comedian of the 21st century?” That question sparks a hilarious, passionate debate on The Ben and Skin Show, as Ben Rogers, Jeff “Skin” Wade, Kevin “KT” Turner, and Krystina Ray dive into Billboard's list of the top 25 comedians of the last 25 years. From shocking omissions to heated arguments over comedic greatness, this episode is a rollercoaster of laughs and hot takes.

SEASON 4 EPISODE 39: COUNTDOWN WITH KEITH OLBERMANN A-Block (2:30) SPECIAL COMMENT: As Trump threatens the New York Times with sedition and treason charges and tells finance clowns and his government goons that he gets to choose who gets to be on CNN and what they get to say, we are at the tipping point. The first news reporter who stands up to his insults and calls him out to his face in public will get fired - and within 48 hours get a new job paying twice as much or more, and will become a national hero. America is crying out for somebody to take the risk that isn’t really a risk and tell him to shut the hell up and to EFF off and to SHOVE his A++++ economy and his threats and stochastic calls for destruction and violence. It is time. NOW NOW NOW. The tragedy here of course is that it is accepted, inside the news business, without a second thought, that there is nothing reporters – even bad ones – can do about this without risking their careers and lives. Bull. The first one who gets told “You are the most obnoxious reporter in the whole place. Let me just tell you -- you are an obnoxious -- a terrible reporter” and replies “So what? What does that have to do with my question? Nothing. And, with all due respect SIR, the majority of this nation considers you a failure as a president. And what does THAT have to do with your answer? The one you DIDN’T just give? NOTHING. The majority of this nation thinks you are vindictive, stupid, hypocritical, hateful, destructive, soul-less, and quite probably losing your sanity. I’M a terrible reporter? You’re the worst government leader in the history of the western hemisphere.” B-Block (32:00) THE WORST PERSONS IN THE WORLD: Sean Duffy wants you to wear a suit to the airport and...work out in it before you get on the plane? Palantir co-founder Joe Lonsdale calls for public hangings and says without irony or self-satire "If I'm in charge later..." OK, you first. And Missouri congresswoman Ann Wagner, in the middle of redistricting gerrymandering, turns out to not know the name of the third largest city in the state capitol district and thinks that city is in California. C-Block (42:00) THINGS I PROMISED NOT TO TELL: Somebody asked me how I felt about Chris Matthews being back on MSNBCNOWWHATEVER with Joe Scarborough and I actually said I felt sorry for Scarborough. Then I told them the saga of Chris, co-anchoring a funeral with me, drooling over Jennifer Granholm. On the air. So I'll tell you.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Ali has spoken at many organizations, from Google to Walmart-Jet to Princeton University to the United Nations to the Chandni Indian-Pakistani Restaurant in Newark, California, and his living room in front of his three kids.

Today on Let There Be Talk — Episode 834 — I'm taking a trip through some of my favorite AC/DC deep tracks, the songs that don't always get the spotlight but absolutely deserve it. I'm also marking a big personal milestone: 16 years of doing stand-up comedy. It's been an incredible ride, full of growth, gratitude, and a whole lot of stories. And finally, I'm diving into one of my favorite passions — architecture. The buildings, the lines, the design choices that shape the world around us and inspire me every day. Let's get into it.
