    About European Leaders and the Olympic Cheater

    The gang dives into the political turmoil sweeping Europe, where major leaders are seeing their approval ratings crater. From Keir Starmer’s record-low numbers in the UK to Emmanuel Macron’s struggles in France and Friedrich Merz’s challenges in Germany, Justin, Jen, and Heaton explore why incumbents across the continent are facing voter backlash and what it means for the rise of far-right movements. Then they turn to a jaw-dropping Olympic moment, as a Norwegian bronze medalist uses his post-race interview to confess to cheating on his girlfriend in a bid to win her back. Romantic gesture or spectacular miscalculation? Chapters 00:00:00 - Intro 00:22:58 - European Leaders' Unpopularity 00:47:44 - Olympian Admits to Cheating on Girlfriend 01:03:43 - Emails 01:44:06 - Wrap-up Hosted on Acast.

    About the Epstein Files and "Kind Lying"

    The gang digs into the massive new release of Epstein-related documents and the public reaction to yet another transparency dump that raises more questions than it answers. From who gets named to what “appearing in the files” actually means, they talk through how information spreads, how narratives form, and why ambiguity fuels speculation. Then they pivot to a study on “kind lying,” debating when honesty is overrated, when lies are socially rewarded, and what people really want when they say they want the truth. Chapters 00:00:00 - Intro 00:14:33 - Epstein 01:04:20 - "Kind Lying" 01:25:46 - Emails 01:46:04 - Wrap-up Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

    About the Minnesota ICE Shooting and the Substation Theory

    The gang breaks down the fatal shooting of Alex Pretti during a Minneapolis protest against ICE, as federal officials quietly change their public posture amid growing backlash. With video evidence contradicting early claims and questions mounting about the agents’ actions, they ask what the most important unanswered piece of the story really is. Then they turn to the so called “substation theory,” as Super Bowl bound teams avoid the 49ers’ training facility over concerns that a nearby electrical substation may be linked to unusually high injury rates. Is there anything to the theory, or is this just another case of pattern seeking in sports? Chapters 00:00:00 - Intro 00:10:45 - Minnesota ICE Shooting 00:52:44 - Substation Theory 01:11:55 - Emails 01:33:22 - Wrap-up Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

    About Greenland and the UK's Social Media Ban

    The gang breaks down President Trump’s escalating rhetoric over Greenland, including newly revealed text messages with Norway’s prime minister and renewed claims that U.S. control of Greenland is necessary for global security. They debate how serious this push really is and what it signals about American power politics. Then they turn to the UK, where Prime Minister Keir Starmer is opening the door to a possible ban on social media for children under 16, reversing earlier opposition and raising questions about whether similar restrictions could come to the United States. This episode was recorded prior to the framework deal being announced. Chapters 00:00:00 - Intro 00:22:00 - Greenland 01:17:17 - Social Media Ban 01:40:57 - Emails 02:22:32 - Wrap-up Hosted on Acast.

    About the ICE Shooting in Minnesota and California's Proposed Wealth Tax

    The gang discusses the killing of Renée Good, a U.S. citizen fatally shot by an ICE agent during protests against a federal immigration operation in Minneapolis. With conflicting accounts from federal authorities, witnesses, and local officials, they dig into questions of use of force, accountability, and how immigration enforcement is escalating inside U.S. cities. Then, they turn to California’s proposed billionaire wealth tax, which has prompted Google founders Larry Page and Sergey Brin to move assets and cut ties with the state. Is this a long overdue redistribution effort, or a policy that will drive massive capital flight?

    About Venezuela and Tim Walz

    The gang breaks down the U.S. operation that captured Venezuelan president Nicolás Maduro in a surprise overnight raid approved by President Trump, an unprecedented move that killed dozens of Cuban guards and triggered international outrage. With critics calling it illegal regime change and supporters celebrating Maduro’s removal, they ask what this means for U.S. foreign policy going forward. Then they turn to Minnesota Governor Tim Walz’s sudden decision to drop out of his reelection race amid a long-running fraud scandal involving state funded childcare programs. Why step aside now in a deep blue state, and what does the timing say about accountability and political pressure? Chapters 00:00:00 - Intro 00:12:46 - Venezuela 01:08:42 - Tim Walz 01:36:34 - Emails 02:00:08 - Wrap-up Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
