Episode Details

On today’s episode, we’re talking about the price of ego-driven economics—and spoiler alert: it’s steep. When Trump called it “Liberation Day,” what followed wasn’t freedom—it was freefall. Markets tanked. Retirement accounts withered. Small businesses gasped for air. And all of it? Triggered by a new wave of tariffs that economists are calling the worst policy move in a century.

We unpack how this economic gut-punch is hitting everyday Americans where it hurts: in the wallet, the workforce, and their futures. Think higher prices, job cuts, and a stock market nosedive. Even CNBC’s Jim Cramer is throwing up red flags—and he’s not exactly known for understatement.

We also break down a must-watch 10-minute segment from CBC’s Andrew Chang, who exposes the shaky math behind Trump’s tariff strategy (spoiler: it’s fiction wearing a factsuit).

👀 Watch it. Then come back here. We’ve got thoughts.

This episode is for anyone with a 401(k), a kid in college, a car in the shop—or just anyone who buys stuff and wants to retire someday.
