In which we discuss heavy news from around the world this week (trigger warning: gun violence), the amazing "Vanity Fair Goes to the White House" piece by Chris Whipple and truly iconic accompanying photographs by Christopher Andersson, the news that famous non-Italian Mariah Carey will be headlining the Milano Cortina 2026 Opening Ceremonies, our intentions for watching Euphoria season 3 when it finally premieres in April, Hailee Steinfeld and Josh Allen's baby news, Alix Earle and Braxton Berrios's break-up news, Sumner's strong opinions about the American celebrity presence at the Red Sea Film Festival in Saudi Arabia. In tennis, we talk about some 2026 kit rumors and in f1, we do a final wrap-up of the season. In content, we share our review of episodes 1 and 2 of Taylor Swift: The End of an Era docuseries on Disney+. We also discuss our true, unabashed love of the BBC's Belfast-set cop drama, Blue Lights, ahead of the season 3 finale airing in the US this week. Alexa recommends some podcasts: The Lazarus Heist from the BBC World Service, The Bachelor of Buckingham Palace from Wondery, and the interview The Rest is Entertainment did with Simon Cowell this week. For people who can metabolize murder podcasts, Sumner recommends Dead Certain: The Martha Moxley Murder from NBC News Studios.
