Recorded on 04/07/2025. In this episode, Frank and Reid talk about the continued fallout from Trump’s tariff policies and the broader implications for the U.S. economy and global trade. The conversation highlights how tariffs are being used as strategic tools to push for fairer trade practices, reduce reliance on foreign manufacturing, and address long-standing trade imbalances. There's also a look at the role of communication and public perception in shaping the response to these policies.
The episode then shifts to a broader reflection on technology and ideology, with a discussion about Elon Musk’s transhumanism and its place within conservative thought, sparked by a recent article from The Federalist. The show wraps up with commentary on recent political protests and the ongoing tensions shaping public discourse.
