Jordan Klepper unpacks Trump's denial of a Biden economic recovery as new inflation numbers bring more good news. Plus, as Kamala Harris struggles to connect with male voters, Fox News chalks it up to the fact that "real men" prefer conservatives. Troy Iwata joins with a manly view on why Republicans are rallying behind men. If Trump wins, many fear he will abuse the criminal justice system to take down his enemies and pardon his friends. But are there positives to presidential pardons? Ricky Velez makes his case in a new "In My Opinion." "My job is to make them laugh, and I like to hear them laugh. I think it's a sickness." Award-winning comedy legend Eric Idle sits down with Jordan Klepper to discuss his new book, "The Spamalot Diaries." They talk about how hoarding diaries revealed memories and arguments from the making of the Broadway musical, director Mike Nichols's advice to believe in your jokes, focusing on respect in comedy rather than being hip, being a funeral staple with "Always Look on the Bright Side of Life," and staying on the bright side by ignoring the news cycle.
