I'm very excited about being in The Lion King. I just can't quite work out if this is a photo of me, or whether this is the finished bird.

We're back tonight at 11:07. Due to the fact that we're producing remotely, we currently have to tape Saturday morning. That's never great, and this week, it's especially not-great. There's obviously a lot more to say than we were able to, and we look forward to saying it soon

Stephen Hawking was a brilliant man, but he was also an incredibly funny man. It was a huge privilege to waste some of his time, and I'll never forget the twinkle in his eye here ...

I know I usually share a link to our main story here on Mondays, but HBO has decided they’re going to wait until Thursday to post them to YouTube from now on. I hope they change their mind, but until then, you can see our piece about the Supreme Court on HBO, on MAX, and on…

My friend @wyattcenac did a whole season of @ProblemAreasHBO about policing in America. 10 episodes. It was really good. If you missed it first time around, it's more than worth your time.
