Ronny Chieng tackles Donald Trump's continued attacks on Kamala Harris's racial identity, this time citing... Mindy Kaling's Instagram? JD Vance handles his own race problems with a lukewarm defense of his wife against white supremacists, and Ronny runs down Harris's options for a running mate, who, as Desi Lydic explains, absolutely cannot be a woman. Ronny is joined by former GOP Congressman Adam Kinzinger who discusses Power the Polls, a national non-partisan effort to recruit the next generation of poll workers to ensure safe and fair elections for all voters. And Oscar-nominated actor Hong Chau speaks about her latest film, “The Instigators,” and her incredible career in Hollywood. They talk about her luck in being discovered by directors for roles, being in the spotlight as an introvert, her incredible journey from Vietnam to America, and trying Ronny’s wife’s famous Banh Bo cake.
