Plus, Troy Iwata checks in on sick MAGA children who have just learned that their letters from the president were signed by... an autopen. The recent string of plane crash catastrophes has air traffic controllers overworked and travelers worried. In an all-new "Back In Black," Lewis Black breaks down America's airline problem, the insufferable ways fliers ease their anxiety, and how Elon Musk is making it all worse.
