Michael Wolff, author of the bombshell All or Nothing, rips open the turmoil behind Trump’s campaign: “They hate each other.” His staff is locked in a ruthless survival game, “all leaking.” Trump was “terrified of dying on Jeffrey Epstein’s plane,” and Melania “doesn’t live with him.” Instead, “she’s cashing in.” He berates his lawyers, “Have you heard of Perry Mason?” Wolff calls his latest strategy “bigger provocations” and predicts Elon Musk will last “six months, tops.” Joanna Coles rocked sneakers at the SAG Awards while celebs endured “Ozempic-fueled starvation.” People president Leah Wyar says Hollywood’s hottest skincare trend is “salmon sperm injections—yes, really.”

Ben Sherwood shares plane crash survival tips: “Sit within five rows of an exit, wear lace-up shoes—every second counts.”

Billionaire LinkedIn founder Reid Hoffman is Beast of the Week and delivers a very informed verdict on Elon Musk, a fellow member of the PayPal mafia from the late 1990s, calling him "Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde."

Pod Save America’s Jon Lovett slammed the Democratic Party’s leadership void, telling Joanna Coles and Samantha Bee, “We haven’t made another figure with Barack Obama’s popularity. We are paying dearly for the fact that Joe Biden basically left the bully pulpit empty.” Praising Bernie Sanders and Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez as leaders who understand “this is about attention,” he criticized the party’s lack of vision, asking, “Once everybody can have healthcare, what’s the next thing?” In contrast, Trump, he said, “declares something that’s not happening must be stopped” and then “claims victory.” And Joanna offers her verdict on giggling Hillary Clinton and reports from the Trump show in Washington D.C.

Isaac Mizrahi, the former Project Runway host, explains how we are all going to dress in the Trump era–“There’s going to be no truth—just facework and hairpieces”–and delivers a cutting verdict on Melania Trump’s style. Joanna Coles and Samantha Bee have radically different takes conjoined-president Elon Musk: is he the “genius” America needs or “a rich madman on a micro-dosing bender?” Bee has thoughts about Pope Francis accusing nuns of having “vinegar faces,” saying, “Imagine telling them to smile more while they’re rinsing out his dirty socks.” And don’t miss Joanna’s version of Jessica Gunning’s Golden Globes speech.

To kick off the new year, Samantha Bee and Joanna Coles interview Tiffany Haddish about her grocery store venture, her soul food New Years’ party, pre-sex bathing rituals, and more seriously, the dignity that suitcases give children in foster care. Coles and Bee also play a precarious trivia game, based on guests they’ve had on the podcast. There’s a catch—if they get a question right, they get to read a nice comment from listeners, and if they get the question wrong, they have to read a mean one. Spoiler: Sam Bee delivers a highly-theatrical recitation of all the not-so-nice ones. Tune in to see if your comment made it on air!

Comedian Jim Gaffigan reflected on the surreal experience of performing at the Al Smith Dinner, describing Donald Trump’s unorthodox comedic style as “performing on his heels” and surprisingly “killing the entire time.” Gaffigan also joked about parenting his five kids: “Every Monday morning is kind of a surprise for them. Like, ’What? There’s school?’” Then, journalist Mary Ann Akers dissected Kash Patel’s controversial FBI nomination, noting his plan to create a “museum of the deep state” and his intent to use the FBI for political revenge. “He has a long enemies list,” she explained, “and it’s not just Democrats—it’s Republicans too.”
