John Oliver dives into the ongoing conflict in Iran and how it has sparked a feud between Donald Trump and the pope. He then shifts focus to the increasing popularity of prediction markets, where people can wager on a wide range of topics, from weather forecasts to the war in Iran. He cleverly connects this trend to the lives of Mormon wives, highlighting the surprising intersections of these seemingly unrelated issues.
