Jordan Klepper assesses Trump's growing cabinet of longtime ass-kissers: Kristi Noem, Lee Zeldin, and Elise Stefanik. Plus, Michael Kosta teaches Klepper how to buy male friends, just like Elon did with the president-elect. Jordan Klepper and Desi Lydic debate some of the biggest stories in sports: a runner banned from the New York Marathon, the legalization of sports betting in Missouri, and the odds of Aaron Rodgers winning the presidency in 2028. Harvard professor, social scientist, and author of "Bowling Alone," Robert Putnam, sits down with Jordan Klepper to discuss how the demise of the American community affects politics. They talk about how America stopped being the most connected country in the world, data that proved the more socially isolated a person, the more likely to vote for Trump, how the new documentary "Join or Die" expounds on joining groups to save American democracy, and how to create the right groups through bonding and bridging social capital.
