In Episode 90 of Dad Bod History, the dads return to the mic to break down the tangled issues dominating headlines in 2024. From the controversial rise of Modern Monetary Theory to America’s ever-growing debt, they explore why meaningful reform remains out of reach.

Topics include:
– The economic impact and critiques of Modern Monetary Theory
– A historical look at U.S. debt and deficits since 2000
– Why both parties avoid true immigration reform
– The evolving political dynamic between Trump and Elon Musk
– Media, loyalty, and political perception in modern America
