Description

Let's start today with Biden's entire January 6th speech and the vigils held to commemorate those who took part in the insurrection. Next, we cover the historic posthumous pardon of civil rights leader Homer Plessy, before unpacking some of the drama that's been happening with Novak Djokovic and how he ended up in Australian immigration detention. Meanwhile in New York, to-go cocktails are making a permanent comeback. Finally, we unpack why Netflix's 'Emily in Paris' is under fire.
