Following Trump’s so-called “Liberation Day” tariffs, the United States has now struck a trade deal (sorta) with the United Kingdom. We’ll get into it. Plus, childcare costs a lot – and in some places, more than rent. Then, we’ll smile at the unexpected joy of “swole culture.” And what if, instead of sports metaphors, we used makeup lingo at work?

Here’s everything we talked about today:

• “Trump unveils United Kingdom trade deal, first since 'reciprocal' tariff pause” by CNBC

• “U.S., Britain strike first major trade deal of Trump tariff era” by Axios

• “Sending 2 Kids to Daycare Costs More Than Rent in Most Major U.S. Metros” from Redfin

• “Head Start avoids Trump’s cuts, but advocates are ready to defend it: ‘There’s too much good in this’” by The Guardian

• LISTEN: “Will you be my nanny?” from “This Is Uncomfortable” 

• “Life of the Mother” by ProPublica

• “Finding Strength in a Bigger Body” from The Cut

• “How one writer quit dieting and discovered her strength through weightlifting” by NPR
