About this listen

The gang dives into the political turmoil sweeping Europe, where major leaders are seeing their approval ratings crater. From Keir Starmer’s record-low numbers in the UK to Emmanuel Macron’s struggles in France and Friedrich Merz’s challenges in Germany, Justin, Jen, and Heaton explore why incumbents across the continent are facing voter backlash and what it means for the rise of far-right movements. Then they turn to a jaw-dropping Olympic moment, as a Norwegian bronze medalist uses his post-race interview to confess to cheating on his girlfriend in a bid to win her back. Romantic gesture or spectacular miscalculation?
