Where to Watch Rick and Morty Season 8
Rick and Morty Season 8 is exclusive to Adult Swim, so you can catch all the new episodes there. That's not all. The show has also been greenlit for seasons 9 and 10.
"Season 7 just represents one more brick in that road, and it's season 8, which is already written, when that comes out, I think it'll be even more so," co-creator Dan Harmon tells The Verge.
"It'll feel like a return to form and kind of like a 'we're back, baby' kind of feeling, and hopefully, season 9 will be that but, you know, even more so. But it'll be because it's been a gradual process of just trying to get our wind in our sails again."

Christian MAGA Singer Vows To Continue Despite Canada Protests
Based on facts, either observed and verified firsthand by the reporter, or reported and verified from knowledgeable sources. Newsweek AI is in beta. Translations may contain inaccuracies—please refer to the original content. Sean Feucht, a prominent American Christian worship leader and vocal supporter of the MAGA movement, says he will press on with his tour of Canada, despite a wave of public protests, security concerns, and event cancellations in multiple cities. Newsweek contacted Feucht for comment via email on Sunday. Why It Matters Feucht's tour has become a flash point in Canada's ongoing debate over freedom of expression, public safety, and the role of religious and political ideologies in public spaces. As communities respond to his messaging—often framed around conservative Christian values and American right-wing politics—the backlash highlights tensions between freedom of speech and protecting marginalized groups from perceived harm. Despite the setbacks, Feucht remains determined to complete his tour. He is continuing to organize events at alternative venues and actively posting about it on social media. On Saturday, Feucht posted on his Facebook and Instagram accounts: "We've been canceled, banned, protested and smoke-bombed in Canada, but the MOVE OF GOD ONLY GROWS STRONGER! "The greater the resistance, the greater the breakthrough! See you today Ottawa and tomorrow Toronto!" Sean Feucht is seen at Wesley Bolin Memorial Plaza outside the Arizona State Capitol in Phoenix, Arizona, on October 19, 2024.

Rebecca Noble/AFP/Getty Images What To Know As reported by Newsweek, Feucht is a pro-Trump American Christian singer-songwriter who unsuccessfully ran as a Republican candidate in California's 3rd congressional district in 2020. Feucht has previously been criticized over remarks he has made about the LGBTQ+ community and for his pro-life stance. He first rose to prominence with his "Let Us Worship" tour in the latter half of 2020, which protested COVID-19 lockdowns. In April of 2022, he helped to lead a protest against The Walt Disney Company for their opposition to anti-LGBTQ legislation. In early 2023, he announced a "Kingdom to the Capitol" tour co-sponsored by Turning Point USA, the nonprofit that advocates for conservative politics at high schools and university campuses. Several Canadian cities, including Halifax, Quebec City, Charlottetown, and Moncton, have canceled Feucht's scheduled events in recent days. Officials cited public safety concerns, protest activity and logistical complications. In Halifax, Parks Canada revoked a permit for a concert at the York Redoubt historic site after consulting with police and local residents. The event was moved to Shubenacadie, about an hour away, where hundreds of attendees gathered. Despite the relocations and cancellations, protests have continued to follow Feucht's appearances. In Montreal, demonstrators set off smoke bombs inside a venue, and at least one person was arrested. Critics of the tour, including advocacy groups and local officials, argue that Feucht's rhetoric is inflammatory and harmful to community cohesion. Some have also pointed to Feucht's political affiliations, which they believe are inconsistent with Canada's inclusive values. Feucht has accused Canadian authorities and media outlets of discriminating against his religious beliefs, claiming his events are being unfairly targeted for expressing traditional Christian values. He has maintained that his message is peaceful and spiritual in nature, not political. What People Are Saying Feucht posting on his X account on Saturday: "I've led worship and preached in Africa, the Middle East and all across the world in 2025. The most intense persecution was not in Iraq or Turkey - but CANADA! Didn't have that on my bingo card." The city of Vaughan, where Feucht was due to perform on Sunday, said in a statement, per CTV News: "The City of Vaughan has denied a Special Event Permit for a music event to be held at Dufferin District Park on July 27 on the basis of health and safety as well as community standards and well-being." What Happens Next City officials in other planned tour stops are assessing whether to grant permits, and national law enforcement agencies are monitoring developments closely. As protests persist, the debate over who gets access to public spaces—and under what terms—is likely to intensify in the days ahead.

Min Woo Lee Cooks Golf With Justin Bieber, Kendall Jenner amid PGA Tour Break
Based on facts, either observed and verified firsthand by the reporter, or reported and verified from knowledgeable sources. Newsweek AI is in beta. Translations may contain inaccuracies—please refer to the original content. After a grueling major season, golf professionals are finally catching their breath. Days ago, five-time major winner, Rory McIlroy, was spotted partying on a yacht in Saint-Tropez, with a champagne in hand. Now, another PGA Tour winner has stolen the spotlight with a different kind of celebration. The newest Texas Children's Houston Open champion, Min Woo Lee, who is currently enjoying his PGA Tour break, was spotted at a star-studded party in West Hollywood, Calif., on Thursday. But what made it special was Lee's cooking (golf swing) snaps alongside Justin Bieber and his wife, Hailey Bieber. PGA Tour winner Min Woo Lee joins Justin Bieber, Hailey Bieber, Kendall Jenner at the Swag X Skylrk party on June 26, 2025.

(Image Credits: @lilbieber/Instagram) Instagram The event, hosted by Spotify in collaboration with Bieber's newly launched fashion label Skylrk, doubled as a listening party for his surprise album Swag. The album, released on July 11, is Bieber's first studio drop in four years. Interestingly, the pictures shared by the 31-year-old pop singer on Saturday also captured Kendall Jenner dressed in all black, swinging a club barefoot. Lee, who's earned the nickname "Chef" for his flair both on and off the course, later commented on Justin's typing, "The Best." The PGA Tour pro's appearance at Bieber's party wasn't just a one-off. Lee and the pop star icon struck up a friendship earlier this year. It went viral after the Aussie golfer snagged his Houston Open title, where he held off Scottie Scheffler and Gary Woodland to clinch his first PGA Tour title with a final score of 20-under. The 'Sorry' singer FaceTimed Lee after the victory and posted a congratulatory message on Instagram. The 'Chef' later reposted it on his own Instagram story, captioning it, "J frickin B." In an interview with the PGA Australia, Lee also shared how both of them are fanboys of each other. "The thing is he (Justin Bieber) fanboys kind of over me, but obviously I'm fanboying over him," Lee told the Australian media four months ago. The 27-year-old also revealed how Bieber would share videos of his swing, and he would critique it. The recent snaps reveal how fast their relationship has grown from there.

Joe Rogan Responds to South Park's Mocking of Trump: 'Hilarious'
Based on facts, either observed and verified firsthand by the reporter, or reported and verified from knowledgeable sources. Newsweek AI is in beta. Translations may contain inaccuracies—please refer to the original content. Podcaster Joe Rogan responded to the Season 27 premiere of South Park, which mocked President Donald Trump, during a recent episode of his podcast, describing it as "hilarious" and saying it is "the greatest show of all time." Newsweek has reached out to a representative for Rogan via email for comment outside of regular working hours. Why It Matters Rogan endorsed Trump in the 2024 presidential election, interviewing him on his podcast and later attending his inauguration. Left, Joe Rogan attends Donald Trump's inauguration Washington, D.C., on January 20, 2025. Right, guests attend Paramount+'s South Park in San Diego event during 2025 San Diego Comic-Con on July 25, 2025.

Right, guests attend Paramount+'s South Park in San Diego event during 2025 San Diego Comic-Con on July 25, 2025. Saul Loeb - Pool/Getty Images/for Paramount+ Rogan has recently joined a cacophony of angry voices who have spoken out against Attorney General Pam Bondi and the Justice Department's handling of its findings from the investigation into sex offender Jeffrey Epstein. Trump's fan base has been in revolt since the DOJ released a two-page memo earlier this month, which said they had found "no incriminating 'client list'" after an "exhaustive review" of government documents related to the case. What To Know During Friday's episode of The Joe Rogan Experience, Rogan was joined by Mike Baker, and they discussed the Trump administration's handling of documents relating to Epstein. While they were discussing the "chaos" of current politics, Rogan brought up the South Park episode. The episode titled "Sermon on the Mount" depicts Trump in bed with Satan, complaining about the size of his penis, and arguing with the Canadian prime minister. The episode also referenced the "Epstein list," the alleged list of clients involved in convicted sex offender Epstein's sex trafficking operation. "There's so much chaos, there's so much madness," Rogan said, before asking Baker if he had seen the South Park episode. "They did a Donald Trump on with Satan." "It's f****** hilarious," he said. "They haven't given a f*** since the beginning, and it's the greatest show of all time," Rogan said. South Park's creators took the stage at Comic-Con in California shortly after the episode—and the ensuing slew of headlines about it—aired. The two were asked by panel moderator Josh Horowitz if they had been following the reaction to the show. Parker jokingly responded: "We're terribly sorry." What People Are Saying White House Spokesperson Taylor Rogers told Rolling Stone on Thursday morning that South Park: "Hasn't been relevant for over 20 years and is hanging on by a thread with uninspired ideas in a desperate attempt for attention. President Trump has delivered on more promises in just six months than any other president in our country's history—and no fourth-rate show can derail President Trump's hot streak." What's Next The Season 27 premiere of South Park came after a two-and-a-half-year hiatus of the show, and came a day after the show's creators Parker and Stone had reached a $1.5 billion streaming deal with Paramount. They signed a reported $900 million deal to extend South Park to Season 30, which should take the show up to 2027. The 26th season featured six episodes, so this season may take a similar format.
