    This week, Andy and Alice tackle the big (and weird) stories of the moment—Ukraine, Trump, Starmer, and, of course, some truly terrible meetings. In health news, there’s actual cancer research progress (for once!), but we’re also forced to confront the true power of avocados. Meanwhile, the Pope is unwell, AI continues its quest for world domination, and we opt in—begrudgingly or otherwise.

Would you befriend the guy rocking a dangling George Michael crucifix earring and a beret? Today we’re talking all about what it’s like to work with your friends with the one and only Jo Lo Truglio. Mel, Steph and Joe reminisce about the good old Brooklyn Nine-Nine days and the magic that comes from working with your buds. Spoiler alert: The guy with the earring? That was Joe circa 1988.
