All right, we're taping this on the heels of the 2026 Emmy nominations,
and it was a very good morning for our favorites like Hacks, The Pit, and The Bear,
and we welcomed some new faces to the Emmys party like Widow's Bay, Pluribus, and Marco's Got Money Troubles.

Carrie Russell got a nom for The Diplomat while her partner Matthew Rhys scored double acting nominations.

on NPR's Pop Culture Happy Hour are my fellow co-hosts, Linda Holmes.
Hey, Linda.
