Episode description

Join Puck writers Peter Hamby, Matt Belloni, Julia Ioffe, and Dylan Byers for an expert discussion about these topics and more:

  • Hollywood's response to Russia: Canceled productions, YouTube bans, and more
  • If you want to see The Batman this weekend, you'll have to pay more at AMC theaters
  • Larry David has abruptly shelved a documentary about himself ... and no, it's not a stunt for Curb Your Enthusiasm
  • Russia has taken the major Ukrainian city of Kherson, and early predictions of how the war might end have gone out the window
  • The Russian economy is being vaporized, but Putin is never going to take the L ... how far will he go?
  • Western allies of Ukraine, including the US, won't be able to hide from the consequences of this war
  • CNN has appointed a replacement for Jeff Zucker: "Wunderkind" executive producer Chris Licht
  • Does Licht's appointment mean CNN is pivoting back to hard news? Yes and no.
  • Whither the resistance-y "liberal edge" that CNN acquired during Zucker's term?
