March 24, 2026 - Sterling K. Brown

Synopsis

President Trump cheerfully accepts a mysterious “gift” from his enemies in Iran, yet forces TSA agents to work without pay as travelers slog through nine hour airport lines—all because he refuses to approve a bipartisan deal in Congress. He’s also sending untrained ICE agents into airports, and even though they’re not helping ease the chaos, Josh Johnson is at least relieved they’re not out on the streets. Meanwhile, AI is reshaping the world, warping young minds, stealing jobs, and maybe even plotting humanity’s downfall. Former OpenAI researcher and whistleblower Daniel Kokotajlo tells Ronny Chieng why he believes current AI poses a real extinction threat. Emmy winner and Oscar nominee Sterling K. Brown joins Johnson to talk about his series Paradise, why he became an actor “to entertain, educate, and edify,” and how struggling artists can stay motivated. Plus, Josh Johnson delivers the Mini Roast of Sterling K. Brown.
