Move over, Meet the Press—it’s time to MEET THE MESS!

This week on the podcast, Kristi Noem insists FEMA didn’t delay its response to the Texas floods, despite plenty of evidence to the contrary. Trump refuses to return a FIFA trophy, so the actual champions get stuck with a replica. (Stay classy.)

Plus, Trump threatens to deport Rosie O’Donnell, and she fires back with an epic takedown. And, more people are falling in love with their chatbots, Grok introduces a cringey new NSFW anime chatbot companion, Elmo gets hacked, and the internet continues to spiral in the most entertaining way possible!
