Description

Vice President Mike Pence announced that Turkey will pause its military operation in Syria for 5 days to allow for the Kurds to withdraw from the area. While President Trump called it a victory, critics still say Turkey got everything they wanted and the whole ordeal has diminished the standing of the U.S. in the area. Dave Lawler, Axios world editor, joins us for the ceasefire.

Next, the world’s longest flight is leaving New York Friday and arriving in Sydney during its Sunday morning. It will be providing fresh insight into the physical and emotional toll these long haul flights have on the crew and passengers. Angus Whitley, reporter for Bloomberg News and one of the passengers who will be on this long haul flight joins us for what to expect from this 20-hour flight.

Finally, an entire marketplace has sprung up online where people put Cheetos that looks like things up for sale, sometimes for hundreds and thousands of dollars. After the Harambe Cheeto sold for $100,000, people have been trying endlessly to make money off of these cheesy puffs. Tove Danovich, journalist and contributor to TheOutline.com, joins us for the collectible Cheetos market.
