October 28, 2025 - Lucy Dacus

Desi Lydic breaks down Trump's trip to Japan, which included a shockingly firm handshake from new Prime Minister Sanae Takaichi, decadent gifts to win the president's heart, and a quick survey for the U.S. Navy about magnets. Plus, Troy Iwata is pretty sure Trump's embarrassing antics in Tokyo are the worst things America has ever done to Japan. Grammy Award-winning musician Lucy Dacus joins Desi Lydic to discuss "Forever Is a Feeling: The Archives," an expanded edition of her latest record, which has been called the "most romantic album of 2025." They talk about what makes a good love song, why writing this music felt like therapy, whether fame has impacted her creative process, and how her song "Best Guest" inspired her to get ordained and perform weddings on tour at a time when the Trump administration is threatening LGBTQ+ unions.
