We begin with a report from Trump’s visit to House Republicans regarding budget reconciliation. Trump continues to lash out at conservatives, as we incur all the liabilities of populism but receive none of the benefits. Relatedly, we’re joined by Kevin Lynn, executive director of the Institute for Sound Public Policy, who is sounding the alarm that nothing seems to be changing regarding student and worker visas. Trump has just approved a new batch of 120,000 H-1B visas without even instituting the reforms from his first term. Lynn goes through the data on how the tech labor market is in the trash, yet the forces of collusive nepotism are trying to leave no job for Americans. We cover many aspects of this collusive nepotism and how it has bled into Trump donors and advisers. We need a course correction fast, because Trump has the full legal authority to institute these reforms without Congress. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Boysober

Boysober

Have you ever wondered what life might be like if you stopped worrying about being wanted, and focused on understanding what you actually want? That was the question Hope Woodard asked herself after a string of situationships inspired her to take a break from sex and dating. She went "boysober," a personal concept that sparked a global movement among women looking to prioritize themselves over men. Now, Hope is looking to expand the ways we explore our relationship to relationships. Taking a bold, unfiltered look into modern love, romance, and self-discovery, Boysober will dive into messy stories about dating, sex, love, friendship, and breaking generational patterns—all with humor, vulnerability, and a fresh perspective.
