They also dish about hitting up an Irish pub and being all wishy-washy about future shenanigans. Then it’s like, Jocko Willink’s big Navy SEAL mic drop and his ongoing power moves. Oh, and let’s not forget about Alan Ritchson’s bod overhaul for a gig. Plus, there’s some hot goss about 2024 politics and major heart eyes for Tim Miller.
