  • This week we're pouring one out for the Musk/Trump love affair. Yes, Laura was wrong about how that would play out -- but the real drama is unfolding in LA, where the Trump administration is intentionally fueling the fire to justify military overreach. Then we dive into summer movie madness: AMC is adding even more trailers and commercials, so how are we supposed to know when to show up??  Plus, Pam leads a thoughtful convo on transactional friendships and the unwritten rules of modern social favors—like driving a friend to the airport or staying at their place. Are we keeping score, or is it just love? Per usual, we have recommendations on tap for y'all: Nintendo Switch 2 if you've been on the fence (Andrew), 'Andor' on Disney+ (Laura), and 'Overcompensating' on Amazon Prime (Pam).

    And in this week's installment of After Dark: We have a bone to pick over a few examples of of people who take advantage of favors but never return them. If staying at a someone's home, should guests make an effort to socialize? And how far is too far to ask a friend to allllways drive?
