About this episode

Ronny Chieng reports on Super Tuesday, including Nikki Haley’s decision to drop out of the Republican race, Mitch McConnell endorsing Trump, and drama in American Samoa, where Democrats opted for the relatively unknown Jason Palmer over President Biden. Plus, Michael Kosta and Grace Kuhlenschmidt check in with updates on the uncommitted primary voters. And Ronny Chieng investigates the GOP's newest player, and explains how Trump has become a trailblazer for insanity in the Republican party. Plus, comedian and actor Chelsea Peretti stops by to chat about her directorial debut, the appropriately titled “First Time Female Director.” They discuss their bond as comics, the film premiering at the Tribeca Film Festival, and the most challenging parts of making a movie.
