043- The Rightwing Grift is Getting Griftier, RELEASE THE EPSTEIN FILES

In this episode, we dive headfirst into the hottest and most controversial topics shaking America in summer 2025. The hosts get real about police overreach—including a now-viral Florida traffic stop that turned violent for no good reason. They tackle the notorious “few bad apples” defense and challenge the idea that covering for corrupt officers is just as bad as being one.

The conversation shifts to economics and class warfare, throwing down on maximum wage proposals, the morality of billionaires, and America's wildly skewed definitions of “success.” There’s a spirited, at times hilarious, clash with right-wingers in VR who would rather have Babe Ruth immortalized than universal healthcare for millions. They explain in plain language just how inconceivable billionaire wealth really is—and why defending it is working against your own interests.

While untangling capitalism’s failings, talk turns to Amazon, trickle-down economics, and why Jeff Bezos’s $54 million weddings perfectly capture the US’s broken promise of prosperity. Education funding and privilege get unpacked too, with personal stories that cut to the heart of intergenerational inequality. Along the way, the hosts roast the myth of bootstraps, bring clear-eyed fury to political grifts, and even debate the truth behind the "Balloon Boy" scandal.

Plus: The latest on the Epstein list, Trump’s Scottish “welcome,” Lauren Boebert family drama, and why Texas grocery stores might just be the last place for honest pleasure in this dystopia. Smart, irreverent, and unfiltered—don’t miss this wild ride through America’s summer of outrage.
