A Congressman Has Vanished, The Mystery Deepens

A Congressman Has Vanished, The Mystery Deepens

Author: Jim Geraghty & Greg Corombos – Political Humor Commentary April 23, 2026 Duration: 16:54
(00:00:00) Virginia referendum challenged in court
(00:04:22) NJ Congressman MIA
(00:08:24) The politics of gas prices

Craig Collins is in for Greg Corombus, and Craig and Jim start with the good news that a Virginia judge blocked the state from certifying the results of Tuesday's congressional map referendum, deeming the referendum and the bill that triggered it as unconstitutional. (Don’t get too excited, this is just the first step in a multi-step process.)

Then Craig and Jim wonder about the long absence and unspecified health issues of New Jersey Republican congressman Tom Kean Jr., and tell the administration that when it comes to gas prices, it’s better to underpromise and overdeliver than the other way around.

Finally, the two long-suffering fans of New York’s NFL teams contemplate the Giants' and Jets' prospects in tonight’s NFL draft.

Each day can feel like a barrage of headlines, a chaotic mix of the serious and the absurd. That’s where 3 Martini Lunch-Political Humor & Commentary comes in. Hosts Jim Geraghty of National Review and Greg Corombos have built a following by sorting through the noise with a specific, effective ritual. They serve up the day’s events in three distinct parts they call "martinis": one for the genuinely good news, another for the frustratingly bad, and a final one reserved for the utterly crazy stories that defy belief. What you’ll hear in this podcast is a conversation that feels like sitting with two well-informed friends who aren’t afraid to be sharp, witty, or blunt. They analyze politics and culture with a perspective that cuts through partisan talking points, aiming for clarity and, often, a much-needed laugh. The pace is brisk and designed for a commute or a lunch break, but the commentary is substantial. Tuning into this podcast means getting a digest of what matters, framed with humor and insight that makes the whirlwind of news actually digestible. It’s a daily check-in that manages to be both smart and consistently entertaining, providing a structured way to understand the world without losing your sanity in the process.
