How in the world are we still alive? If you have trouble reading this message, view it in a browser.       This Report on Trump's National Security Council Is Terrifying   Not to alarm anyone unnecessarily, but the following things are going on right now, at this very moment, around the world: India and Pakistan are shooting at each other's airplanes but have not yet decided to drop nuclear bombs on each other. A summit aimed at defusing tensions on the Korean peninsula collapsed before lunch in Hanoi.

Before fully transitioning to all new music, they took one more trip back to Teal Album, or as I like to call it—Your Dad's New Favorite Cover Band Album. If there's one person that you should feel comfortable doing '80s synth pop with, it's with Jimmy Fallon.
