When news breaks we fix it.
Josh Johnson gives a progress report on Trump's first year in office based on his campaign pledges to generate more jobs, make Americans rich, improve healthcare, and protect free speech. Naturally, the only person to benefit from these promises is Trump, who now has everything but a normal-looking hand. Lewis Black takes on Gen Z's nostalgic penchant for the past and the ridiculous "throwback" fads the younger generation is reviving, including cigarette smoking, "dumb phones" to help them think thoughts, tramp stamps, and the mall. Emmy award-winning documentarian Alexandria Stapleton talks to Josh Johnson about producing and directing the Netflix docuseries, "Sean Combs: The Reckoning," including her shared concern with producing partner Curtis "50 Cent" Jackson not to indict the entire Hip-Hop culture along with the music mogul & how the sense of trepidation among the documentary crew & interview participants has shifted since the release of the series and the arrest of Sean Combs.
