August 13, 2024 - Gabby Thomas
Desi Lydic tackles Donald Trump's glitchy interview with Elon Musk on X, in which a slurring Trump announced plans to close the Department of Education, played '90s pop culture trivia with Vladimir Putin, and revealed his new celebrity crush. On an Olympics edition of Sports War, Ronny Chieng and Michael Kosta recap the biggest stories from the 2024 Paris Games, including why Australian breaker Raygun is sure to be this year's hottest Halloween costume. Also, three-time gold medalist Gabby Thomas joins Desi to discuss her big wins for Team USA, a moment she spent five years training for.
