Why Iran Is Winning the War + JD Solves Daycare!

About this episode

The crew discusses Iran's gains in the ongoing conflict and offers a humorous take on childcare solutions.

**recorded on 4/8 when the ceasefire was still tentative but holding** This week the crew reacts to the “deadline” and the “ceasefire” and explains why both need air quotes. Seena works out some white board magic to show exactly how much Iran has gained since Trump and Bibi began their war– an unquestionable success, yes, but for the wrong side. They also look into wtf JD is doing in Hungary, celebrate Artemis II, and rejoice that Trump and JD have finally solved our childcare crisis. With a solution that simple it’s a wonder it’s taken this long. 😑
