Mike looks at Dolly Parton’s unique ability to entertain without turning her celebrity into a political soapbox, arguing that entertainers can simply do what they’re paid to do without lecturing their audiences. He revisits Dolly’s famous refusal to weigh in on politics and the rare universality of her appeal before shifting to the debate over data centers and the billions of dollars being spent to address alleged harms from social media. Mike questions whether government settlements and lawsuits against companies like Meta actually solve the problems facing young people—or simply allow parents and individuals to avoid taking responsibility. He also weighs in on Marjorie Taylor Greene’s criticism of President Trump, Trump’s decision to endorse Darlene Graham Nordone over Ralph Norman, and the president’s willingness to forgive some former critics while holding others to their past political choices.
