In case you missed any of the highlights last week, here they are: Sean Hannity was Michael Cohen’s secret third client, also he’s a real estate mogul apparently, Kendrick Lamar won the Pulitzer, Barbara Bush died, Mitt Romney didn’t get the Utah Senate nomination, Elon Musk did something weird probably, I don’t know, Westworld returned for another season of being terrible, Trump’s apparently been calling Sessions and Rosenstein “Mr. Magoo” and “Mr. Peepers,” respectively, good things appear to be happening on the North Korea front, and God of War came out. It’s fun! But I’m an assistant comedy editor, not an assistant games editor, so that’s all I’ll say about that. And now the tweets everyone’s clamoring to see:

INTERVIEWER: Where did you get the idea for “Chewbacca”?
