Buckle up for a wild ride with Alex on The Short News Podcast! This episode is a no-filter dumpster fire of global chaos and personal truth-bombs. I’m spilling tea on my vet med apocalypse—understaffed, overpriced, and dodging pet parent meltdowns—while celebrating five months sober (no seizures, just warrior vibes). My cat Suzie’s living her Cleopatra fantasy, and I’m screaming Drake into the night to keep the ghosts at bay.
On the news front, I’m roasting Trump’s $440M Qatar-gifted jet (gold toilets, anyone?), the wallet-crushing US-China tariff mess, RFK Jr.’s shady autism list, and Georgia’s infuriating heartbeat law turning women into objects. Plus, an AI rant: ChatGPT and Grok are game-changers, but will greedy tech bros make us Skynet’s bitches?
Highlights:
Five months sober and feeling like a “fucking warrior”
Trump’s tacky jet flex and why it’s a geopolitical red flag
Georgia’s law objectifying women—time to wake up!
AI’s potential to save or screw us, plus a shoutout to Grok for blood work skills
Sneak peek at my single Cardigan from Kisses and Tears
Join the chaos on X—tell me how tariffs are hitting you, if your cat’s as extra as Suzie, or your AI stories. Catch me and Kelsey on The Pool House every Monday at 9 AM. Keep it feral, blast some Drake, and don’t let the ghosts live rent-free. #NewsPodcast #TrumpJet #SobrietyJourney #AIRevolution
