Marianne Jean-Baptiste

Desi Lydic tackles the historically awkward reunion between Trump and all his political enemies at Jimmy Carter's funeral. Plus, conservatives blame DEI for the raging wildfires in LA, so Michael Kosta is stepping in to help with his straight white maleness. Desi Lydic and Jordan Klepper are back with another Sports War to discuss the latest sports news: from NFL players hitting cash-out incentives to the college bowl's delicious new mascots to whether wokeness killed the NBA's ratings. Academy Award-nominated actor Marianne Jean-Baptiste sits down with Desi Lydic to discuss her critically acclaimed new film, "Hard Truths." She discusses the real-life inspiration behind her character Pansy, who's "a bit of a difficult woman," the collaborative process with director Mike Leigh on set, and gets into character with reactions to today's headlines.
