About this episode

The U.S. and Israel walked away from ceasefire talks with Hamas, and U.S. Special Envoy to the Middle East Steve Witkoff says they’ll consider “alternative options to bring the hostages home.” NBC News foreign correspondent Matt Bradley joins host Morgan Chesky to talk about where the war goes from here. Also, President Trump issued an executive order that could overhaul third party, pay-for-play payments and bidding wars in college sports. NBC News Sports Reporter Rohan Nadkarni explains what this could mean for student athletes.
