Trump Autopens the Iran Deal, Lands a Res at G7 Summit & Spawns an Algae Conspiracy | Britt Lower
6/17/202635 min
The president showed up at the G7 summit to get presents and show off his finally final peace agreement with Iran, while planning to ditch the signing ceremony in favor of a dinner at his ultimate Pinterest inspo, Versailles. Plus, Trump’s $14 million project to fix the Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool is only reflecting back an algae-green mess, and MAGA supporters suspect sabotage. Former federal workers who lost their jobs to Elon Musk’s DOGE-ing spree are taking another stab at working for the government that humiliated them by running for Congress. Desi Lydic sits down with these scorned civil servants to figure out why they’d voluntarily return to government work after being subjected to Elon's job-killing chainsaw. Britt Lower sits down with Jordan Klepper to discuss her new Netflix series, “I Will Find You,” which she stars in alongside Sam Worthington. She attributes her on-screen chemistry with Worthington to their shared birthday and breaks down how she prepared for the role as a boots-on-the-ground reporter, all the way down to filling her character’s bag with journalistic props like a 35mm camera, a handheld recorder, and a notebook. Lower also shares how improv taught her about presence, listening, and embracing failure in real time.

That is the problem. Nothing in my life goes this smoothly. I'm waiting for the catch.

Maybe there's no catch.
