Hey folks,

We went a little off-script for this one. No guest, no panel, no polish. Just me, live, talking straight with you about what’s happening right now — and why it feels so unsettling. We talked about Trump falling asleep at a press conference, yes — but also about ICE violence, Greenland, the weaponization of government power, and why so many people are feeling exhausted, angry, and unsure of what comes next.

Here’s what we got into:

  • [00:01:07] Trump falls asleep on live TV — funny at first, then deeply alarming

  • [06:28] Why this isn’t just about age — it’s about danger and unfitness

  • [12:16] The killing of Renee Good and the lies coming out of Washington

  • [22:19] Greenland, war fantasies, and how detached this administration has become

  • [45:00] What still gives me hope — and how we keep our heads on a swivel

This episode is part political breakdown, part rant, part group therapy. We dug into abuse of power, the fear tactics, and what resistance actually looks like right now — not just in the streets, but in how we live, organize, and take care of each other. If you value honest, unfiltered conversations like this, help me keep them going.
