| 6/11/26 | ![]() Eddie Fishman: Understanding Iran | Trevor and Eugene sit down with Eddie Fishman– former State Department official, international sanctions expert, and author of Chokepoints– to unpack the hidden mechanics of global power. Using Iran as a lens, Eddie explains how economic sanctions became one of America's favorite foreign policy tools, why they're often seen as an alternative to war, and what happens when those plans collide with the realities of the world they're meant to change. Along the way, the trio explore unintended consequences, international hypocrisy, and the stubborn truth that people, countries, and history rarely cooperate with anyone's grand strategy. | — | ||||||
| 6/9/26 | ![]() WORLD CUP Bonus Episode: The Pregame | The World Cup is finally here! And as if Trevor’s World Cup Watch Party on YouTube wasn’t enough, every Monday throughout the tournament Trevor and his football frenemy Joe Opio will drop a special World Cup bonus episode of What Now? to break down the drama, brilliance, heartbreak, controversy, and occasional chaos that make the Beautiful Game the Beautiful Game. In this World Cup preview episode, Trevor and Joe get into who did (and didn’t 😬) make the cut to represent their country, whether England is once again being dramatically overrated (Joe said it, @ him), and the surprisingly controversial new halftime show planned for the final. Whether you can name every member of Brazil’s squad or you only tune in once every four years, Trevor and Joe will be with you for every twist and turn of football's biggest tournament. New bonus episodes drop Mondays at 10pm ET / 7pm PT on YouTube and wherever you get your podcasts. | — | ||||||
| 6/4/26 | ![]() Brené Brown: The Rage Bucket Theory | Trevor and Eugene sit down with professor, author, and The Curiosity Shop co-host Brené Brown for a conversation about connection in an age of constant connectivity. From parasocial relationships and modern media to friendship, community, and the universal desire to feel like we belong, Brené brings her trademark mix of insight, honesty, and humor. Together, the three explore why genuine human connection can feel harder to find than ever — and why it remains one of the most important things we have. | — | ||||||

| 2/12/26 | ![]() Dulce Sloan: Will You Be My Valentine? | Trevor and Eugene sit down with comedian and former Daily Show correspondent Dulce Sloan for a wide-ranging, candid conversation about life. Along the way, they dig into the loneliness that can come with fame, the challenges of dating, and the unspoken pressures men and women bring into relationships. When it comes to the emotional math of choosing between independence and intimacy, is staying home the only good option left? Funny, sharp, and disarmingly real, the episode captures the contradictions of modern love in a world that rarely slows down. | — | ||||||
| 2/5/26 | ![]() Cleo Abram: What Could Go Right? | Emmy-nominated video journalist Cleo Abram joins Trevor and Eugene to talk about Huge If True, her hit YouTube series that takes an optimistic approach to science and emerging technology. The three explore how asking “what could go right?” might be the most powerful tool we have for moving humanity forward, why optimism isn’t naïve but necessary, and how the physics of curling (the most divisive Olympic sport) can be used as an example of pessimism keeping us from imagining a better world. | — | ||||||
| 1/29/26 | ![]() Bertie Gregory: Saving the Animals (Even the Ones That Are A**holes) | Trevor and Eugene go wild with world-class explorer and nature documentarian Bertie Gregory to tackle one of life’s most important questions: are animals a**holes? From whale poop and chimp gangs to elephant stepdads and guanaco hunts, Bertie pulls back the curtain on the animal kingdom’s messiest, funniest dramas—before landing on the surprisingly moving truth about climate change and what’s at stake….for them, for our planet, and for us. | — | ||||||
| 1/22/26 | ![]() Rachel Yehuda: The Biology of What We Carry | In this episode, Trevor and Eugene unpack intergenerational trauma with psychiatrist Rachel Yehuda. Turns out, trauma is inherited, passed down through generations, but don’t fear! The three turn the heavy science of PTSD into a profound conversation about meaning-making and we learn that where trauma can be passed-down, so can resilience. | — | ||||||
| 1/20/26 | ![]() Prime Minister Mia Mottley: Climate, Immigration, and the Power of Small Nations | In this very special bonus episode that’s as smart as it is fun, Trevor goes one-on-one with Barbados' Prime Minister, Mia Mottley. Between lessons on Bajan slang, "road tennis" Olympic dreams, and big ideas on global finance, climate change, and managed migration, Mottley proves she’s a force of nature—though even she can’t score Trevor an invite to Rihanna’s next birthday bash. | — | ||||||
| 1/15/26 | ![]() John Oliver: Why Everything is a Scam: FIFA, Mergers, & Information Literacy | John Oliver, professional shit-stirrer and host of the award winning "Last Week Tonight", sits down with Trevor and Eugene for a hilarious, profound, and wide reaching conversation. From comparing notes on their Daily Show origin stories, to the state of comedy and the modern media landscape, to the “beautiful cocaine” that is football, this is a must watch episode. | — | ||||||
| 1/8/26 | ![]() Dr. Jessica Knurick: Is American Food Actually Poison? Debunking the MAHA Movement & Nutrition Myths | This episode is a masterclass in navigating the confusing world of modern nutrition. Trevor and Eugene sit down with Dr. Jessica Knurick, a PhD in Nutrition Science and expert in chronic disease prevention, to debunk the most persistent health myths currently trending on social media. From protein to salt, seed oils to raw milk, they discuss the most persistent health myths we hear every day. If you’ve ever felt food anxiety while walking down a grocery aisle or wondered if fruit sugar is actually poisoning you, this deep dive into evidence-based health is a must-watch. | — | ||||||
