In our second hour, the hosts dig into Francesca Hong’s narrow loss in Wisconsin’s August 11 Democratic primary for governor. The democratic socialist led the polls, but Bernie Sanders and AOC stayed out, old statements on Thanksgiving, policing, and prisons came roaring back, and David Crowley pulled the upset. We track the progressive fractures, the establishment’s relief, and the bigger fight over candidate quality versus ideology in a real swing state. The show wraps with an interview featuring Christian Briggs, Economist & CEO of Hard Asset Management, Inc., a specialist in rare coins and precious metals with nearly 40 years of experience advising individuals and family offices on undervalued hard assets. Briggs explains why hard assets matter now—as a tangible store of value that can protect wealth against inflation, currency debasement, and market volatility when paper assets and digital currencies face growing uncertainty.
