On today's episode of The Blind Spot, I'm talking tariffs, Trump, and how one wild decision sent markets worldwide spiraling into chaos. Look, when Trump first proposed reciprocal tariffs—matching whatever barriers other countries threw at us—it actually made sense, even to an anti-Trump guy like me. But then, as Trump tends to do, he took a solid idea and turned it into a global economic dumpster fire, crashing markets and trashing America's carefully built credibility. I'm breaking down why the real cost of this tariff tantrum isn't just lost dollars, but shattered trust and lost global standing. And if you're thinking, "Hey, he paused those tariffs, so isn't everything okay now?"—well, not exactly. Join me as I lay out why Trump's unpredictable flip-flops aren't just political theater; they're putting America's prosperity on the line. This isn't partisan whining—it's a raw, no-bullshit look at why risking it all to "own the libs" might leave us holding an empty bag. Buckle up, hit play, and let's get into it.

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.
