They first bonded over their shared love of Nando's — now
Mehdi and UK comedian Nish Kumar reunite to talk about their
shared contempt for the Trump administration. The two sat down in
Washington DC to discuss UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer and
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky's disastrous visits to the
White House and the childish behavior of US President Donald
Trump and Vice President JD Vance.

Mehdi and Nish also weigh in on the current debate raging in the
UK over who gets to claim 'English' identity. Is Rishi Sunak
English? Is 'English' an ethnic identity? Is this just racism
disguised as legitimate debate? The two also dig into the nature
of 'American' identity and Donald Trump's attempts to revoke
birthright citizenship in the US.
