Sorry for the late episode, Riverside had some big errors. This week on the podcast, it’s just the girls—Alyssa and Arden—breaking down a whirlwind of major stories that define life in America right now. We dive into the Supreme Court’s bombshell ruling that hands unprecedented power to the Trump administration, potentially gutting nationwide injunctions and putting birthright citizenship in jeopardy. What does this mean for your rights, and is it time to consider leaving the US? Arden shares her anxieties about moving to Illinois, surrounded by red states, and the real fear of crossing state lines in a fracturing country.
We also celebrate Zoran Mamdani’s shocking win in New York City and what it signals for progressive politics nationwide. But it’s not all politics—Alyssa dishes on Jeff Bezos’s $53 million Venice wedding, the environmental disaster of private jets, and the absurdity of billionaire excess. Plus, we get real about social media burnout, the cult of Trump, and the exhausting bootlicker mentality that’s taken over American discourse.
On the lighter side, we debate the great bread sandwich question, the best road trip snacks, and why everything is either a soup, salad, or sandwich. There’s talk of Pinterest inspiration, Canva whiteboards, and how to survive the news cycle without losing your mind. If you’re looking for a podcast that mixes sharp political analysis, pop culture commentary, and a whole lot of personality, this episode is for you.
