 In this episode, we dive into HBO’s The White Lotus as more than just prestige TV—it’s a mirror held up to the decadent, self-justifying rituals of elite liberalism. We unpack how wealth and guilt dance together in a new gospel of indulgence, where morality is performative and redemption is bought through ideology. From sun-soaked resorts to the darker undercurrents of privilege, we explore what White Lotus unintenti...

Join us as we explore the deeper meaning behind these acts, the collapse of democratic dis...

Democrats once championed tariffs to protect American workers—until Trump adopted the same policies. In this episode, we expose the Left's hypocrisy on trade and tariffs, showing how partisan politics, not principle, drives their outrage. The facts reveal that Trump didn’t rewrite the rules—he just reminded us who wrote them in the first place.

 Saturday Night Live built its legacy on fearless satire, skewering the powerful and absurd on both sides of the political aisle. But in recent years, the show has abandoned that balance, turning a blind eye to the growing absurdities of the Left. In this episode, we explore how SNL's partisan blind spot not only alienates half the country but weakens the very comedy it once mastered.
