Ronny Chieng: 我认为特朗普政府存在诸多争议。首先，他声称南非存在“白人种族灭绝”，但事实并非如此，这反映了他对种族问题的偏见。其次，特朗普品牌的商品质量堪忧，例如“RUMP”手表，这损害了他的声誉。最后，他提出的耗资巨大的“金色穹顶”防御计划，既不实用，又带有个人崇拜色彩。我认为这些问题都值得我们深思和警惕。 Grace Kuhlensmith: 我觉得“金色穹顶”非常值得，因为它能保护美国免受敌人侵害，让我可以自由地成为一名国际吐槽喜剧演员。有了这个穹顶，我可以尽情嘲讽其他国家，而不用担心安全问题。虽然有人认为导弹防御盾牌会鼓励侵略，但我并不在意。不过，我也承认这个穹顶还没准备好，可能需要几年时间才能建成。

Shownotes Transcript

Ronny Chieng tackles the president of South Africa's uncomfortable White House visit and a MAGA couple shortchanged by a "RUMP" watch. Plus, Trump sets his heart on a $542 billion "golden dome" to protect America from hypothetical attacks, including those provoked by international roast comic Grace Kuhlenschmidt.

Charlamagne Tha God looks at Republicans' obsession with Trump as a father figure and reminds them that not only is Trump a bad dad to his own kids, he's an abusive dad to Americans.

Screenwriter, comedian, and actor Simon Pegg joins Ronny to discuss the final installment of the legendary franchise, “Mission: Impossible - The Final Reckoning.” They talk about Pegg’s humble beginnings doing standup with his goldfish, how “Mission: Impossible” ​​Director Christopher McQuarrie weaved earlier films into the franchise’s ending, the power of movie theaters to unite people in experiences, and Tom Cruise’s comedic timing while performing epic live-action stunts.
