They first bonded over their shared love of Nando's — now Mehdi and UK comedian Nish Kumar reunite to talk about their shared contempt for the Trump administration. The two sat down in Washington DC to discuss UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky's disastrous visits to the White House and the childish behavior of US President Donald Trump and Vice President JD Vance.

Mehdi and Nish also weigh in on the current debate raging in the UK over who gets to claim 'English' identity. Is Rishi Sunak English? Is 'English' an ethnic identity? Is this just racism disguised as legitimate debate? The two also dig into the nature of 'American' identity and Donald Trump's attempts to revoke birthright citizenship in the US.
