What can you learn about leadership from someone who's served four U.S. Presidents, navigated some of the most intense moments in American politics, and still believes the future depends on building more leaders, not fewer? In this Greatest Hits Week replay, Joe Saul-Sehy, OG, and Neighbor Doug welcome David Gergen—former White House advisor, Harvard professor, and author—to the basement for a masterclass on leadership that applies as much to your career and investments as it does to running a country. Gergen pulls back the curtain on life inside the White House, from the early lessons he learned in the Navy to the behind-the-scenes moments that revealed the human side of Presidents. Along the way, he shares what separates great leaders from the rest, how to evaluate leadership in others (and yourself), and why service and responsibility are the cornerstones of lasting influence. Whether you're leading a team at work, managing your family's financial future, or just trying to be the kind of person others trust, you'll find plenty here to sharpen your approach. And because no visit to the basement is complete without some SB-style surprises, you'll also hear stories of presidential humor gone sideways, a White House prank or two, and reflections on how good leadership isn't about perfection—it's about purpose. Plus, the guys tackle a listener question on investing without specific goals, and Doug tests the panel's trivia chops with a leadership twist. What You'll Learn in This Episode: How David Gergen defines real leadership (and how it's changed over time) The telltale signs you're working with—or for—a great leader Lessons from the Navy, the West Wing, and history's most memorable leaders Why building leaders is just as important as being one Practical ways to evaluate leadership in politics, business, and investing How a clear sense of service can make you a better investor and decision-maker Questions for you while you listen (share with our Facebook group!): Who's the best leader you've ever worked for, and what made them stand out? How do you evaluate whether someone is worth following—whether in politics, business, or life? What's one leadership skill you wish more people would develop? Learn more about your ad choices.

First: President trump is publicly taunting Democratic cities, hinting he could send federal troops to their zip codes as soon as this week. We have new reporting on what it could mean for Chicago and Boston. Plus: Florida's top doctor says actual data did not factor into the decision to scrap the vaccine requirements in the Sunshine State for public schools, as even President Trump admits it may be a step too far. And: Dana speaks with the author of a book about zoning laws that's sparked a political cult following. Is the abundance movement a blueprint for Democrats moving forward, or just a buzzword?

“I think my role and where I'm most comfortable is focusing on the economic harms that the choices this administration is making will limit access to affordable, clean energy. Affordable energy overall, and that they will wind up harming the American people. EDF is standing up and fighting the Trump administration in court every single day. We believe, based on the facts and the law, that we have very good cases and expect to see more wins than not. When the government sets aside all of the things they need to do to land appropriately and just say, "We don't care. This is what Donald Trump wants," there is recourse to step in, intervene, and challenge that. They were sloppy the first time he was president. They're even more brazen now.”David Kieve has been on the front lines of some of the most critical environmental debates of our time. Before becoming president of EDF Action, the advocacy and political arm of the Environmental Defense Fund, he was in the White House as the director of public engagement at the Council on Environmental Quality. But his journey to the West Wing started on the campaign trail, where he was tasked with a unique role: convincing a broad coalition of voters that Joe Biden was the candidate to tackle the climate crisis. He is a strategist who understands not just the science of climate change but what it takes to implement those policies. We talk about connecting climate policy to everyday costs and the political will required to confront climate change.Episode Websitewww.creativeprocess.info/podInstagram:@creativeprocesspodcast

The news is out! After nearly ten years and what will be 500 episodes, The Hamilcast will be coming to an end on January 26th, 2026, the podcast's official ten-year anniversary. While the community isn't going anywhere and the archive will always remain available, the weekly episodes you've come to expect will soon be wrapping up. Until then, this is going to be a PARTY. Let's celebrate this journey with memories, special events, plus a few repeat episodes to bring things full circle and look back on some extraordinary moments on the pod. While there is plenty of time to get emotional, I do want to make sure that I say I've loved making this show for you for all these years. Thank you for always being excited about things with me. It's been such a fantastic ride and I'm so happy to be celebrating with you. As we kick off the final stretch of The Hamilcast, let's revisit when we fanned that spark into a flame, otherwise known as the time Lin-Manuel Miranda came over and ate popcorn with me and Mike for four hours while drinking a custom cocktail inspired by the bodegas of Washington Heights. We're going back to October 2017, when Lin-Manuel Miranda himself first joined me on the podcast. It all started with a Twitter DM, which led to Lin visiting my tiny New York City apartment (slanted floors, whistling toilet, the works) to record one of the biggest conversations of my life. It was a monumental moment for me, for the podcast, and for the listeners. What followed became known as #Lintoberfest: five episodes filled with the excitement, stories, and rare audio from that unforgettable day. Below you'll find today's relevant links including the rest of Lin's episodes, as well as the original description from when Episode 88 originally dropped in 2017. Playbill Exclusive: After a Decade, The Hamilcast: A Hamilton Podcast Will Drop Final Episode in 2026 Aaron Burr Panel at the South Street Seaport /// Lin-Manuel Miranda on The Hamilcast (so far) /// #88: Lin-Manuel Miranda // Part One #89: Lin-Manuel Miranda // Part Two #90: Lin-Manuel Miranda // Part Three #91: Lin-Manuel Miranda // Part Four // The B-Sides #92: Lin-Manuel Miranda // Part Five // The B-Sides #225: Lin-Manuel Miranda Returns! // Part One #226: Lin-Manuel Miranda Returns! // Part Two /// Original description and links from October 1st, 2017 /// Lin-Manuel Miranda came over to my apartment and we had so much fun that I have FIVE episodes for you! Welcome to #Lintoberfest, with my husband Michael Paul Smith joining me for these episodes. In Part One, I try to get over the fact that Lin is recording in my living room – spoiler! I don't! – But regardless, we tell the story of how Lin ended up on the podcast, details of the early days of Hamilton, why Lin is a Hamilton/Burr hybrid, and quote The West Wing a LOT. We also eat popcorn and drink the Spark Into a Flame cocktail, made especially for Lin and inspired by his Inwood, NYC roots. Stay tuned for four more episodes: two more with Lin and then the Lin B-Sides which will be outtakes, non-sequiturs, and commentary by me and Mike (you know Mike). And no, I'm still not over the fact that this happened! No chill whatsoever!

We finally did it. We lib out for 90 minutes to the first two seasons of Aaron Sorkin's most successful project: The West Wing. A centrist liberal projection of an idealized America in the year 2000. We break out our characters, and do a deep dive on Somebody's going to emergency, somebody's going to Jail, In Excelsis Dio, and Shiboleth. And then wrap up by trying to identify the very difficult question of “just what exactly does the Bartlett administration stand for anyway?”Give Remember Shuffle a follow on Twitter And on Instagram @RememberShufflePod to interact with the show between episodes.

Tonight we conclude our monthly look back at The West Wing by reviewing Season 7.The seventh and final season of the American political drama television series The West Wing aired in the United States on NBC from September 25, 2005, to May 14, 2006, and consisted of 22 episodes. The series changed time slots from Wednesdays at 9:00 pm to Sundays at 8:00 pm, and the series struggled in its new time slot against ABC's Extreme Makeover: Home Edition and CBS's Cold Case.The seventh and final season principally follows Santos and Vinick on the campaign trail, while also addressing the aftermath of the space shuttle leak investigation. The Bartlet administration's last year in office is featured, but not prominently. Toby admits to leaking the story about a military spacecraft and President Bartlet is forced to fire him. Later, Toby refuses to name his recently deceased brother as the source of the classified information, despite being urged to by his ex-wife, his lawyer and a federal prosecutor, as he feels it would be wrong to dishonor his brother's memory.

600 Folgen Kassenzone, was für ein Meilenstein! Seit zwölf Jahren prägt Alex Graf mit seiner unstillbaren Neugier und klaren Haltung den deutschen E-Commerce-Podcast wie kaum ein anderer. Vor zwei Jahren kam Karo Junker de Neui dazu, hat seitdem rund 50 Folgen gestaltet und mit frischen Perspektiven bereichert. Gemeinsam haben die beiden Kassenzone zu einer festen Instanz in der Handels- und Digitalbranche gemacht. Für diese Jubiläumsfolge haben sie sich einen ganz besonderen Gast eingeladen, Jochen Krisch, Gründer von Exciting Commerce. Zusammen blicken sie nicht nur zurück auf über ein Jahrzehnt E-Commerce, sondern feiern diesen besonderen Moment, mit viel Nostalgie, klaren Meinungen und einem Blick in die Zukunft. In dieser besonderen Folge geht es zurück zu den Anfängen. Welche Rolle Blogs damals noch spielten, warum QR-Codes erst belächelt und dann durch Corona plötzlich nützlich wurden und wieso der Amazon Dash Button zwar spektakulär klang, aber am Alltag scheiterte. Auch die Shoppingclub-Ära (Westwing, Best Secret, Limango) und Social-Commerce-Versuche aus der Vergangenheit werden diskutiert. Dabei zeigt sich, dass viele Modelle ihrer Zeit voraus waren oder zu schnell aufgegeben wurden. TikTok-Shop könnte das nächste Beispiel sein. Die drei diskutieren, warum Händler zu wenig in Inspiration und Kundenbindung investieren und wie Künstliche Intelligenz dies verändern kann. Zum Abschluss blicken sie gemeinsam auf internationale Trends, den Einfluss von China und neue Märkte wie Energie oder Verteidigung. Diese Folge ist ein ehrlicher, teils nostalgischer, teils visionärer Deep Dive in 12 Jahre E-Commerce. Glückwunsch, Alex und Karo und danke an alle, die Kassenzone möglich machen.

Welcome back to the studio. This is My Day of Play, where you're taken into the real events and actions of how it happens long before the process of editing or cleaning up. The original purpose of these episodes was to give my broadcasting students something to edit, to practice with and to call their own. Then I realized that you are just as important. Share the reality of how it really went. We begin things with music historian Rob Sheffield the author of the book Heartbreak Is The National Anthem: How Taylor Swift Reinvented Pop Music. Then we'll wrap things up with Danica McKellar from The Wonder Years and West Wing. In November of 2024 she starred in the holiday drama A Cinderella Christmas Ball This is My Day of Play.

During this episode I discovered a new genre: 'domestic friendship bi- thriller'. This is literally one of my favorite genres. In a film starring Rob Lowe giving Lifetime movie villain and (my baby) James Spader acting for his life it's bound to have some heat. Me and Charles talk about how they tried to make corporate language seductive, the amazing interiors of 80s apartments, and more talk of homoerotic thrillers.Off-topic rants include: Family Guy cutaways, The West Wing, Rob Lowe as the original himbo---Get BONUS episodes on 90s TV and culture (Freaks & Geeks, My So Called Life, Buffy, 90s culture documentaries, and more...) and to support the show join the Patreon!

638. Part 1 of our interview with Lori Peek about her book, The Continuing Storm, which she wrote with Kai Erikson. More than fifteen years later, Hurricane Katrina maintains a strong grip on the American imagination. The reason is not simply that Katrina was an event of enormous scale. But, quite apart from its lethality and destructiveness, Katrina retains a place in living memory because it is one of the most telling disasters in our recent national experience, revealing important truths about our society and ourselves. The Continuing Storm reflects upon what we have learned about Katrina and about America. Kai Erikson and Lori Peek expand our view of the disaster by assessing its ongoing impact on individual lives and across the wide-ranging geographies where displaced New Orleanians landed after the storm. Such an expanded view, the authors argue, is critical for understanding the human costs of catastrophe across time and space. Concluding with a broader examination of disasters in the years since Katrina—including COVID-19— The Continuing Storm is a sobering meditation on the duration of a catastrophe that continues to exact steep costs in human suffering.

A cabin boy in 1839; could steal cards and cheat the boys at eleven; stock a deck at fourteen; bested soldiers on the Rio Grande during the Mexican War; won hundreds of thousands from paymasters, cotton buyers, defaulters, and thieves; fought more rough-and-tumble fights than any man in America, and was the most daring gambler in the world. “Some men are born rascals, some men have rascality thrust upon them, others achieve it.” This week in Louisiana history.

The college steadily grew and two dormitories were built on new property in 1832 and 1837. The West Wing, the latter of these two buildings, remains today. After less than 20 years, the College of Louisiana closed because of declining enrollment. Suffering similar problems was the Methodist/Episcopal-operated Centenary College at Brandon Springs, Mississippi (established in 1839). Centenary then moved to the vacant campus of the College of Louisiana. Since the all-male student bodies of the two institutions were effectively combined, the school succeeded with the name Centenary College of Louisiana now owned and operated by the Methodist/Episcopal Church South.

On this episode of ABL Live, we covered a variety of topics, including Texas House Democrats fleeing the state to avoid having to vote on the Republican's plan for redistricting which is projected to flip four of five seats from Democrat to Republican, Trump spotted on the roof of the West Wing atop the press and briefing room while answering questions from the press, the Fort Stewart shooting that resulted in five soldiers becoming injured, Howard Stern's SiriusXM radio show finally coming to an end, and much more!
The White House is turning the screws on red-state elected officials to gerrymander new electoral maps and squeeze more GOP seats into existence ahead of the 2026 midterms. And the next big flashpoint comes not from Texas, New York or California, but Indiana, where Vice President JD Vance will be dispatched this week to meet with Gov. Mike Braun and push him to redraw the state's congressional districts. Playbook's Adam Wren and POLITICO White House reporter Megan Messerly talk through the thinking in the West Wing and the statehouse. Meanwhile, is the White House's latest law-and-order messaging — whether talking about Washington D.C. or the so called Speedway Slammer immigrant detention center — a sign of a broader attempt to shift the dominant storyline in the news? All that and more on today's Playbook Podcast.
Mission: Accomplished. In the final episode of their series on Iraq, the Shuffle Bois turn to how “Hope and Change” Obama would handle the quagmire of Iraq he inherited. They discuss how the Iraq War ended with a whimper rather than a bang. En route, they discuss Obama's relationship with his generals, his propensity towards compromise and management, and the state of Iraq that America left behind. They then turn to discuss the lasting impact of this catastrophic and cataclysmic war on the world.Thank you so much to everyone who has supported us throughout this series!Give Remember Shuffle a follow on Twitter And on Instagram @RememberShufflePod to interact with the show between episodes.

C'est une enquête fouillée du Financial Times sur le trafic d'armes à destination des gangs. Le journal a tenté de remonter la filière, ces armes de gros calibre venant principalement des États-Unis, et notamment de Floride. Selon un expert interrogé par le Financial Times, ces armes changent totalement la donne : elles donnent aux gangs une puissance de feu supérieure à celle de la police haïtienne. D'après le journal, ce qui « alimente le bain de sang » dans le pays (plus de 5 000 meurtres en 2024 selon l'ONU), c'est justement l'arsenal croissant d'armes de type militaires des gangs. Ces armes sont transportées de Miami en Haïti par bateau dans les containers. Miami est devenue selon le Financial Times « la principale plaque tournante de la contrebande d'armes vers Haïti ». Ce trafic est facilité par la législation de Floride, très laxiste en la matière. La cruelle médiatisation des Vénézuéliens expulsés au Salvador C'est le rendez-vous de l'été : tous les vendredis, les journalistes de RFI qui couvrent l'actualité des Amériques viennent nous parler de ce qui les a marqués cette année sur le continent. Lila Olkinuora revient sur la méditation de l'expulsion de migrants Vénézuéliens au Salvador. En mars 2025, Kristi Noem, secrétaire à la Sécurité intérieure des États-Unis, s'est rendue au Salvador pour visiter le CECOT, une gigantesque prison de haute sécurité inaugurée en 2023. Dans une mise en scène soigneusement calibrée, elle apparaît en haut blanc impeccable, casquette vissée sur la tête et montre de luxe au poignet, face à des dizaines de détenus au crâne rasé et tatouages dissimulés sous des masques chirurgicaux. Objectif : envoyer un message clair aux migrants potentiels et aux criminels présumés. Une médiatisation alimentée aussi par le président salvadorien Nayib Bukele. Il a diffusé sur X la vidéo de l'arrivée de 238 prisonniers transférés des États-Unis : menottés, encadrés par des militaires armés, têtes rasées sous des néons, vêtus de blanc et dirigés vers leurs cellules. Ces images, au ton spectaculaire et martial, s'inscrivent dans la communication musclée que Nayib Bukele entretient quotidiennement sur les réseaux sociaux. Une stratégie qui lui vaut plus de 80% d'opinions favorables dans son pays, mais qui inquiète les organisations de défense des droits humains : près de 3% de la population adulte est aujourd'hui emprisonnée au Salvador. La réforme constitutionnelle au Salvador : « ce soir, la démocratie est morte » Le Parlement salvadorien, dominé par les partisans du président Nayib Bukele, a adopté hier (31 juillet 2025) une réforme constitutionnelle qui abolit la limite du nombre de mandats du chef de l'État et lui permet de se représenter indéfiniment. Cette réforme a été adoptée par les 57 députés pro-Bukele, les trois seuls élus d'opposition ayant voté contre. Elle prévoit aussi l'abolition du second tour de scrutin, et l'allongement du mandat présidentiel de cinq à six ans. Cette réforme fait beaucoup réagir dans la presse salvadorienne. La Prensa Gráfica dénonce la décision de la majorité parlementaire, qu'elle considère comme un grave recul démocratique. Dans son éditorial, le quotidien estime que les mesures adoptées visent à consolider un pouvoir hégémonique, réduire la concurrence électorale et caler le calendrier politique sur les besoins du président et de son parti au détriment des institutions démocratiques. Le journal met en garde contre une concentration du pouvoir qui fragilisera l'espace civique. Le risque, écrit-il, c'est de transformer le système en un quasi-parti unique. Dans le quotidien El Mundo, la députée d'opposition Marcela Villatoro accuse le gouvernement d'avoir – je cite – « fait tomber les masques ». Désormais, selon elle, les élections ne seront plus qu'un simulacre démocratique, le pouvoir étant réservé à quelques-uns. Et d'ajouter : « Ce soir, je peux dire qu'il est déjà trop tard… En cette fin de journée, la démocratie dans ce pays est morte. » Kamala Harris et Joe Biden reviennent sur le devant de la scène L'ancienne vice‑présidente et candidate malheureuse à la présidentielle de 2024 publiera le 23 septembre 2025 un livre intitulé 107 Days – 107 jours – dans lequel elle revient sur la campagne présidentielle la plus courte de l'histoire récente du pays. Selon le New York Times, ce récit est nourri de souvenirs et de réflexions sur l'avenir. Et d'après l'éditeur Simon & Schuster, il se distingue des mémoires politiques classiques, avec un ton qui rappelle plutôt une série comme The West Wing. Pour donner à ses souvenirs une touche plus romanesque, Kamala Harris a même collaboré avec la romancière Geraldine Brooks, prix Pulitzer. Et cette annonce de livre tombe au moment où Kamala Harris confirme qu'elle ne sera pas candidate au poste de gouverneure de Californie en 2026. Un choix qu'elle a expliqué hier soir dans le Late Show de Stephen Colbert, où elle est venue présenter son ouvrage. Ses propos, en tout cas, laissent la porte grande ouverte à une candidature pour 2028. Et c'est loin de faire l'unanimité dans le camp démocrate. Beaucoup voudraient tourner la page de 2024, explique Politico. D'autant que Joe Biden lui aussi revient sur le devant de la scène : ses récentes attaques contre Donald Trump sont largement reprises par les médias. Une présence persistante qui complique la tâche de nouvelles figures démocrates qui aimeraient s'imposer pour 2028. Politico cite notamment les gouverneurs Andy Beshear du Kentucky, JB Pritzker de l'Illinois et le sénateur Ruben Gallego de l'Arizona, qui multiplient les déplacements et les prises de position. L'élevage intense du saumon au Chili inquiète les pécheurs Le Chili est le deuxième producteur de saumons d'élevage au monde, après la Norvège. Il en produit plus d'un million de tonnes par an, et la majorité est exportée vers les États-Unis, le Canada ou encore la Chine. C'est une industrie en pleine croissance. Les entreprises se déploient désormais vers l'extrême sud et la région de Magellan. Problème : les pêcheurs, communautés autochtones et organisations de défense d'environnement dénoncent une industrie polluante qui détruit les écosystèmes marins de Patagonie. Un reportage de Marion Esnault. Journal de la 1ère La Martinique lance une campagne contre la violence.

Rahm Emanuel is giving every indication that he's running for president in 2028—including by coming on Honestly yesterday. Emanuel, now 65 years old, has spent decades making a name for himself as one of the Democratic Party's fiercest and most effective partisans—a true knife fighter, and you'll see that spiciness in this interview. But can the dealmaker, the guy so adept at pulling the levers of power behind the scenes, really become the front man? And as the party continues to pull leftward, is there really room for an old-school moderate liberal like Rahm to be the standard-bearer? And lastly, but perhaps most importantly, does he have the bedside manner to be president? Or will people love his blunt nature and find it refreshing? He certainly has a résumé to run on. While still in his early 30s, he became a key adviser to Bill Clinton's 1992 campaign, and before he was 40, his career was already the stuff of legend, thanks to stunts like sending a dead fish to a Democratic pollster who had upset him. And after Clinton won the White House in 1992, when staffers met around a picnic table to celebrate their accomplishments, Rahm instead picked up a knife and began listing Democrats he felt were insufficiently supportive of the campaign. “Dead man!” he yelled after each name, jabbing the knife into the table. His nickname—“Rahm-bo,” after Sylvester Stallone's fearsome commando—became so pervasive that even his mom started calling him that. Meanwhile, in Hollywood, Rahm became the inspiration for a leading character on The West Wing, Josh Lyman. He spent five years as a top White House aide following Clinton's victory. Rahm then returned to his native Illinois and was elected to Congress in 2002. In 2006, he was the mastermind of the Democratic Party's wildly successful effort to retake the House of Representatives, making Nancy Pelosi speaker. In 2008, Barack Obama made Rahm his first White House chief of staff. He guided the new president through his tumultuous first two years in office, a period when Obama signed Dodd-Frank, a massive stimulus package, and the Affordable Care Act, into law. Then, in 2011, Rahm was elected to the first of his two terms as Chicago's mayor. And when Joe Biden won the White House, he made Rahm his ambassador to Japan, giving the maybe–presidential contender direct foreign policy experience in what some would argue is America's most important ally. Now the question is whether a man who ran Chicago and served every living Democratic president is too conservative for Democrats. Today on Honestly, Bari asks Rahm how moderates on the left and the right can get elected, about free trade, China, Israel, Iran, Trump, Biden, Obama, Zohran Mamdani, and the American dream—and what his party needs to do to win back Congress in the midterms next year, and the White House in 2028. And more deeply, if the Democrats can ever win a national election again after losing the trust of the American people. It's a fascinating conversation with one of the most unique, knowledgeable, and—dare we say—zesty figures in politics today. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
Check out this episode to hear some of the highlights from Matt and Brian's recent episode talking about "The West Wing"
Michael Wolff joins Joanna Coles to unpack Donald Trump's ever-expanding harem of lookalike aides, surrogates, and “comfort blanket” women inside the presidential bubble. With Melania absent, Trump has surrounded himself with younger clones — from Natalie Harp, the so-called “human printer,” to bikini-clad attorney Alina Habba, to Melania doppelgänger Margo Martin. Wolff, an accomplished Trump biographer who has observed this dynamic firsthand in the West Wing and beyond, explains how Trump's obsession with appearance, loyalty, and media control manifests in the women around him — many of whom are fighting viciously for his attention. Wolff also reveals how one of these Melania clones controls most of the information that reaches the president and why jurors in Trump's criminal trial were “creeped out” by his Stepford-like entourage. Wolff explains how Trump's fixation on TV-ready staff masks a deeper insecurity and clear isolation. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Welcome to The Times of Israel's Daily Briefing, your 20-minute audio update on what's happening in Israel, the Middle East and the Jewish world. Political correspondent Tal Schneider and reporter Sue Surkes join host Jessica Steinberg for today's episode. As Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu lands in the US, Schneider discusses the day ahead for the Israeli leader, ahead of his Monday evening meeting with US President Donald Trump in the White House, and the expectations for the announcement of a permanent ceasefire at that point. Schneider looks at the issues that still need to be resolved, including the hostages, aid distribution in Gaza and who will manage Gaza if Hamas is no longer in power. She also discusses the continuing clashes between Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich and IDF Chief of Staff Eyal Zamir, as Smotrich and his supporters accuse Zamir of being too weak in his handling of Gaza and he has lashed back, with their arguments leaked to the media. Surkes looks at what is happening at Haifa's oil refineries after two Iranian missiles hit the plant, killing three workers and creating additional environmental concerns due to pollution from the plant, with calls to shut it down. She also reports on residents from Gaza envelope communities being told by the government to return home in the next weeks and months, although there are still the sounds of war and explosions in their communities.

Walk-Ins Welcome 345 Comedian Eleanor Kerrigan joins Bridget for a hilarious conversation covering how her dreams of being an actor led to an unexpected wrestling stint, a West Wing mixup, and the one woman show that led her to realize her true calling is comedy. She dishes on behind-the-scenes stories from over a decade running the iconic Comedy Store, being a caretaker for legendary owner Mitzi Shore, epic Pauly Shore parties, and blackout rages. They cover surviving tragedy, why there's no middle ground in comedy, how everything leads back to Tony Robbins, and how anyone who tries to help her dies.

Michael Wolff joins Joanna Coles's to unpack the latest twist in Trump's Iran debacle—a truth bomb dropped by U.S. intelligence. Wolff, Trump biographer and author of 'All Or Nothing' explains how Trump, obsessed with showbiz and "bragging rights," staged a “perfect war” for TV that is now unraveling in real time. The leaked intelligence contradicts Trump's declaration of a triumphant mission, showing Iran's nuclear capabilities remain largely intact—sending the West Wing into a tailspin of blame and recrimination. Susie Wiles launches a frantic leak hunt. Tulsi Gabbard is thrown under the bus. Pete Hegseth scrambles to avoid Trump's wrath, which Wolff describes as “frightening,” and akin to being “treated like dogs.” Wolff uncovers Trump's sugary mood swings to his government-by-whim—“a reality TV presidency with nuclear stakes.” Coles and Wolff reflect on how the U.S. went from a system of institutions to one man's ego show, powered by candy, rage, and a desperate fear of losing the narrative.

Joanna Coles sits down with Michael Wolff, the best-selling biographer of Donald Trump who has become his definitive chronicler. Wolff reveals Trump's the real reason for the president's pick-me-energy hair. He tells how Trump has been making an extraordinary racially charged observation to West Wing visitors about modern college students—and Wolff reacts to Trump going after him for saying that the war on Harvard was a revenge attack because 18-year-old Donald didn't get in. Wolff reveals what's really being said inside the president's inner circle about the Lucifer-like fall of Elon Musk and explains what it really means about the prospects for anyone who put themselves in Trump's orbit. And he resurfaces Stormy Daniels' very telling anecdote about who blew up Trump's phone when the two were engaged in their tryst—which of course, Trump still denies. Hosted on Acast.
