Hey folks,
Joe Walsh and I jumped on for one of those conversations that starts in one place and somehow ends up somewhere way more interesting.
We talked about Trump’s endless need to make everything about himself, the insanity surrounding the Epstein fallout, some brutal Senate race debates, and then landed on something I think a lot of people are wrestling with right now: what it actually means to be a man in 2026.
Here’s what we got into:
[00:01:07] Joe makes the case for ignoring Trump’s birthday spectacle and military parade, and we dig into Trump’s obsession with cultural relevance.
[00:08:45] We talk openly about burnout, audience fatigue, summer politics, and why so many people just want to live their lives instead of doomscrolling.
[00:15:00] A heated debate over Texas and Maine Senate races turns into a bigger conversation about candidate quality, electability, and political reality.
[00:22:00] We wrestle with accountability, redemption, and where the line should be when candidates face serious allegations and controversies.
[00:34:00] The conversation shifts to masculinity, Andrew Tate, Jason Kelce, protecting the people you love, and why Democrats need a stronger answer for young men.
This episode covers a lot of ground, but the thread running through all of it is responsibility—responsibility in politics, responsibility in leadership, and responsibility in our personal lives. If you’ve been trying to make sense of where the country is headed, why so many people feel disconnected, or how we build something better, this one’s worth your time. If you value honest conversations like this, help me keep them going.
