Trump Drags Out Iran War as Hormuz Blockade Pokes Holes in the Condom Industry | Maria Sharapova
4/23/202639 min
FBI Director Kash Patel's job might be like his drinks: on the rocks. Plus, as oil prices skyrocket and Trump shows no sign of being able to end the war with Iran or open the Strait of Hormuz, Michael Kosta gives the president an Earth Day shoutout for showing the world what happens when you don't invest in renewable resources. With the 2026 midterms fast approaching, Ronny Chieng sifts through the record number of D-list celebrities and influencer freaks announcing their candidacies, including reality TV bad boy Spencer Pratt, former "Teen Mom" star Farrah Abraham, and manosphere antisemite Dan Bilzerian. Five-time Grand Slam tennis champion, investor, and bestselling author, Maria Sharapova, sits down with Michael to discuss her new Vox Media podcast, "Pretty Tough." They talk about adapting the "Pretty Tough" mentality from her youth into in-depth conversations with high-achieving women, taking on the manosphere in podcasting to make more room for women in the sandbox, using Grand Slam losses to become a better tennis player, and the advice she’d give to burgeoning players: trust your instincts and “don’t miss.”
