Crooked Media

Former Obama speechwriter, comedian and Pod Save America co-host Jon Lovett takes the stage for a new season of the hit show that dared guests from Danny DeVito to Amy Klobuchar to ask “What is this?” and “Where am I?”

Each week, Jon breaks down the biggest and dumbest stories in politics to help you keep up with and laugh at the news. And this season, stay tuned for big guests and surprising conversations you won’t find anywhere else.

New episodes every Saturday morning on your podcast feed and on YouTube. And if you’re in LA, come to a taping. You’ll be amazed by what we cut from the live show.

Lovett or Leave It

Donald Trump sics the Justice Department on his enemies, the UN sics its escalators on Donald Trump, and, somewhere in Florida, Lovett’s mom tries to remember if she took Tylenol. California Congressman Eric Swalwell stops by to discuss the potential shutdown, Prop 50, and liberal cringe’s greatest hits. Bassem Youssef and Paul Scheer join us to break down our bad reality and even worse movies. Then we give the wheel a 360 to look back on our own 180s, before spinning out into the night.

Escalating Tensions

Pretty nice First Amendment you've got there. Would be a shame if something were to happen to it. Trump’s FCC comes for Jimmy Kimmel, and Disney rolls out the red carpet. Michaela Watkins and Colton Dunn set their brains to “rot” to talk Hunting Wives, James Gandolfini, political acceptance speeches, and how drunk our Drunk Histories really got. Colton loses his shoes, but we all win, with a rousing game of Was I In This?, and we give our aging faves their flowers now, before they're pushing up daisies.

Give Me Liberty, or Give Me Gutfeld

Tensions rise in the wake of Charlie Kirk's killing, as Trump and his allies blame the left before a suspect is in custody. Minnesota Rep. Leigh Finke stops to talk about trans freedom as the right tries to pin all of society's ills on trans people. The very funny Alex English, Punkie Johnson and River Butcher drop the gavel on your gayest little questions, and we end our week with a spin of the Rant Wheel, and boy, we’ve got plenty!

Political Violence Bad

This week, Trump dodges the crypt and rakes in the crypto. Congress comes down with a bad case of RFK Jr., and the Epstein survivors have Jeffrey’s old pals in a cold sweat. A die-hard Latino MAGA voter (Oscar Nuñez) stops by to explain why, despite all evidence, sí Trump puede. Oscar and Alex Borstein go on the record to guess all the news that’s fit to print. And then we crack open the Egg of Truth and have ourselves one shell of a time.

Martha Plimpton takes Lovett to Task over her IMDB, while Siri Dahl and Jamie Loftus search through America’s freakiest porn terms. Lovett finally learns what sex is, and we finally send our most hated wedding trends back down the aisle where they belong.

This week, the White House hosts its first annual Epstein Cover-Up Dinner, Trump feels the Labor pains, and Texas Democrats leave the Lone Star State even more lonely. Jeopardy’s Ken Jennings and Amy Schneider stop by to answer our questions and question our answers, while Tim Heidecker and Vanessa Gonzalez hallucinate an LLM (Large Laugh Model).

Feel the Burn Bag

Border? I hardly knew her! Join us as Lovett or Leave It journeys to the Great White North, where the kisses are French and the bacon ham, for Montreal’s Just For Laughs Festival. This week, Donald Trump’s friendship with Jeffrey Epstein sketches us out, Mike Johnson shutters the House early to stop the release of the Epstein Files, and the DOJ hops on a plane for Ghislaine. Meanwhile, Zach Zucker stops by for some stage time; Roy Wood Jr. and Gianmarco Soresi talk late night and the good fight, and Cat Cohen and Mary Beth Barone get a little cozy with Canucks. And we end the evening with a spin of the American apology wheel, taking us all out in a blaze of sorry.

Epstein Files Didn’t Kill Themselves
