America might be getting sick of RFK Jr. as health secretary, but much like the worm in his brain, he doesn't appear to be going anywhere. While you won't find his brand of non-professional medical advice on "Grey's Anatomy" or "The Pitt," you can find it on a bold new medical drama: RFK Hospital.
Record-breaking comedian, actor, and podcast host Sebastian Maniscalco sits down with Ronny to discuss his latest Hulu special, "It Ain't Right."

MTG Claps Back at Trump as House Votes to Release Epstein Files | Hikari
An (almost) unanimous vote in the House to release the Epstein files has Trump reversing his opposition to save face, Marjorie Taylor Greene looking like she’s severed from MAGA, and Saudi Arabia's visiting crown prince getting a pass for murder. Ronny Chieng reflects on the road to releasing the Epstein files and Trump’s key to uncovering the elite sex trafficking scandal: “Don’t talk about it.”
You thought holiday travel was miserable? Try being an air traffic controller. Leslie Jones breaks down how the people with one of the most important jobs in America are being treated with Spirit Airlines-level disrespect, and asks airlines to quit thinking so much about luxury perks and to start supporting these vital employees with better technology, better pay, and maybe some of that TSA-confiscated cocaine.
Writer, producer, and director Hikari joins Ronny Chieng to discuss her new movie, “Rental Family.” The award-winning filmmaker talks about discovering her love for American media while growing up in Japan, moving to the United States to follow her dreams, and what inspired her to make this film, which follows an American actor (Brendan Fraser) living in Tokyo who struggles to find purpose until a Japanese “rental family” agency hires him to play stand-in roles for strangers. She offers a peek into how this business is used in Japan to combat the loneliness epidemic and what it was like directing one of her childhood acting heroes, Akira Emoto.

A batch of newly surfaced Epstein emails sparks Trump’s fight-or-flight mode, a diversionary DOJ investigation into the Democrats, and a Fox News crash out as pundits try to downplay the Epstein files.
