Producer Sam is in the third chair this week to discuss:
* Maine Democratic Senate candidate Graham Platner cancelling a bunch of events this week
* The new, explosive exposé from Politico in which a former girlfriend of Platner accuses him of sexual assault
* Platner’s video statement almost, but not quite, suspending his campaign
* The pundits heralding Platner’s campaign as a straight bro savior of the left (surprise! it’s not)
* Trump meddling in the World Cup to get a U.S. player reinstated and it going exactly as you’d expect (we lost, brutally)
* Mitch McConnell reportedly being on death’s door
* And in our subscribers-only After Dark segment, a review of every cursed detail of Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce’s wedding at Madison Square Garden
This week’s cultural recommendations:
* Jack recommends John Early’s Maddie’s Secret, now in theaters
* Sam recommends The Studio, on Apple TV
* Aleks recommends Olivia Wilde’s The Invite, now in theaters
