From the transcript
Believe it or not, you haven't seen this episode already, but we'd forgive you if it all feels a bit familiar. On October 6th, 2025, the Government of France collapsed, after just barely 12 hours on the job.
The country's new Prime Minister, former Defence Minister Sebastian Le Corneux, resigned practically without warning as his political rivals thunder about incoming votes of no confidence.
The French economy buckled political parties in the government's own coalition openly considered abandoning their allies, and some of France's newest government ministers were forced to give up their posts before they'd even been sworn in. And to be clear, your memory doesn't deceive you.
