Democrats’ Shutdown Hypocrisy EXPOSED (ft. Bridget Phetasy and Ethan Penner)
About this episode
Story 1: In another gripping ‘Quick Takes’ segment, Will and The Crew dive into the government shutdown, breaking down why the Democratic funding plan wasn’t as apolitical as some would have you believe. They also look at the Left’s reaction to Secretary of War Pete Hegseth’s announcement on new military standards, the epidemic of ‘performative males,’ and a UK man who was arrested in his living room after posting anti-Hamas content online.
Story 2: Comedian and Host of ‘Dumpster Fire,’ Bridget Phetasy joins to discuss the swathe of western comedians going on a comedy tour to Saudi Arabia, many of whom have previously criticized the accumulation of wealth by western billionaires. Is accepting money from trillionaire oil royals hypocritical, or is it simply par for the course for your average comic? Bridget and Will break it down before discussing the fading role of network television in the internet era.
Story 3: Independent California Gubernatorial Candidate, Ethan Penner joins to discuss his campaign. Penner explains why he chose to run despite not being a career politician, goes over his plan to overhaul the Golden State’s taxes, and takes a look what led to the failure
of other major cities, states, and countries.
Then, in ‘Final Takes,’ Will and The Crew discuss how
various generations spend their time when sitting in the car and share their own personal ‘car menus.’
