Episode Transcript

Speaker 1 (00:00):
Here please.

Speaker 2 (00:02):
Hey, I'm Cal Penn and on my brand new podcast,
here we Go Again, We're going to take today's trends
and headlines and figure out why does history keep repeating itself.
You may know me as the second hottest actor from
the Harold and Kumar movies, but I'm also an author,
a former White House staffer, and, as of like fifteen
seconds ago, a podcast host. You know, sometimes I feel

(00:25):
like Bill Murray in Groundhog Day, where I'm watching the
same never ending cycle of things that are happening over
and over and over again, like bridges collapsing, Vinyl coming back,
gas price is dropping, and Fantastic four being rebooted again.
Not that I'm complaining. Pedro Pascal is obviously a zaddie.

(00:46):
Along the way, I've made some friends who are experts
in science, politics, and pop culture, people like Bill Nye.

Speaker 1 (00:53):
In my opinion, and keep in mind, everybody in my
opinion is correct, I'll o Kvade Menna, the headlines from
today could have been there in nineteen forty and nineteen
fifty and nineteen sixty Pepe bodhagic.

Speaker 2 (01:05):
So we don't just wind up with the Gilded Age
on steroids and Stacy Abrams.

Speaker 1 (01:09):
People have always been skeptical of government, We've always been
distrustful of power.

Speaker 2 (01:14):
I'll be asking them things like, why are we racing
the space again? Are we headed towards another financial crash
like in two thousand and eight? Is non monogamy back
in style? And how come there's never a gate ready
for your flight when it lands like two minutes early?
By the way, seriously, someone knew the answer. Look, the
world can feel pretty scary right now, right but my
goal here is for you to listen and feel a

(01:36):
little better about the future. Here we Go Again premieres
October twenty First, you can listen on the iHeartRadio app,
