contents The current cosmological paradigm, $Λ$CDM, is characterized its expansive description of the history of the Universe, its deep connections to particle physics and the large amounts of data that support it. Nonetheless, $Λ$CDM's critics argue that it has been falsified or must be discarded for various reasons. Critics and boosters alike do agree on one thing: it is the not the final cosmological theory and they are anxious to see it replaced by something better! I review the status of $Λ$CDM, provide my views of the path forward, and discuss the role that the ``Hubble tension'' might play.
