The Communist Perspective on Work and Poverty

Inversion of Values in Progressive Policies

The Illusion of Socialist Utopia

Extreme Views at the Socialist Gathering

Democratic Candidate's Controversial Tweets

The Misunderstanding of "Blood Libel"

Republican Convention and Tech Bro Criticism

Philanthropy: Trump Accounts vs. Tech

Nike's Fall from Favor

Closing Remarks and Contact Information

Mary Katharine Ham and Karol Markowicz check in on what they call the increasingly bizarre ideas coming from America’s socialist left—from attacks on the “pull yourself up by your bootstraps” mentality to claims that GLP-1 weight-loss drugs are “fascistic” and part of a supposed war on fat people.

They also dig into resurfaced comments from Democratic congressional candidate William Lawrence criticizing the nuclear family and capitalism, and Mary Katharine and Karol explain why they believe Republicans should make the fight against socialism a major issue heading into the midterms.

Plus, the hosts react to the Pod Save America guys’ confusion over “blood libel” and Passover, debate why progressive cities seem determined to make private philanthropy harder, and look at the Dell family’s massive investment in Trump Accounts for American children. They also discuss Caleb Hammer’s tough-love approach to financial literacy and why younger Americans may need to hear some uncomfortable truths about spending.

Finally, Nike’s stock struggles spark a larger conversation about corporate politics, Colin Kaepernick, Dylan Mulvaney, and whether years of alienating customers are finally catching up with one of America’s most recognizable brands.
