Billionaires Before Cabinet Bros
Welcome to America! Or should we say, it's time to leave? On this episode, Michael, Anna and Anthony break down all the fascinating, bizarre, and frankly unnerving things about the inauguration.

When Humanity Is Good
As the devastating fires wreak havoc on Los Angeles for the 8th straight day, Michael, Anna and Anthony reflect on all of the inspiring GOOD they're seeing from humanity during this crisis, as well as call out some politicians and media figures taking cheap shots for quick political wins. The gang also discusses out of state wildfire aid, proxy voting in Congress for new parents, and a follow up on Meta's new free speech policy. Spoiler, that one isn't so good for humanity.

'25 Starting With A Blaze
Tragically, the year is not beginning how anyone in Los Angeles would like, as Michael, Anna, and Anthony process the still ongoing fires ravaging their own backyards in the Palisades at an unprecedented level. The gang then turn their attention to all the other things making everyone else's start to the year a bit prickly, like Meta announcing they're no longer fact checking, or how funding for 9/11 first responders and victims has lapsed thanks to Donald and Elon. Or how US Steel may be going under after a merger was recently blocked. It's not the start to the year we wanted, but that doesn't me we can allow ourselves to tune out the news.

Invasion of the Drones
Yes, we talk about the drones over Jersey...we just couldn't help ourselves. But we also talk about the quiet but steady work of one GOP Congresswoman to combat China's bad trade practices, the annual year end pardon petitioning to the President, and the future of AOC in Democratic leadership. And finally, to conclude the Year's End Happy Hour, we bid adieu to the departing members on account of age--and spoiler, some of our favs are growing up!
