Hey folks — this one was a ride. I’m back with my friend Simon Rosenberg, and we didn’t waste a single minute. We went straight at the corruption, the cowardice, and the absolute rot that’s setting in — from celebrity grifting to media cover-ups to what 2026 could really look like if we’re honest with ourselves. This conversation got blunt. If you’re trying to make sense of where we are — and what comes next — you don’t want to miss this one.
