Hey folks,
I had the incredible Amanda Nelson of Amanda’s Mild Takes on with me today, and we went deep right from the jump. This one moves—Mark Kelly, Comey, Zohran, Trump’s ego spirals, the economy, the fear machine, all of it. And honestly? We got real about how people are actually feeling in this moment. It’s grounded, human, and hopeful in the ways we all need right now. You don’t want to miss this one.
Timestamps
00:06:48 — Amanda breaks down the “Seditious Six” meltdown and why MAGA elevating Mark Kelly might be the biggest unforced error of the year.
00:14:58 — We dig into the real economic pain points—housing, healthcare, energy—and how Trump’s policies are actively making everything worse.
00:23:04 — A sharp, funny, brutally honest look at the Zohran–Trump meeting and what it tells us about bullies, power, and New York politics.
00:31:11 — Amanda walks through her “L’s” series and the surprising amount of resistance actually working behind the scenes.
00:37:52 — A wide-open, vulnerable conversation on fear, panic, faith, moral leadership, and what it means to stay grounded in a chaotic year.
This conversation hits that sweet spot we aim for—substance, clarity, context, and a reminder that we’re not powerless. If you care about understanding this moment without doom or denial, this is essential listening. And if you value honest, smart conversations like this, help me keep them going.
