Episode 377: The Getty / Newsom Pipeline
From oil wells in the Arabian desert to the marble halls of California’s governor’s mansion, The Getty–Newsom Pipeline traces how one of America’s richest family fortunes helped shape one of its most ambitious politicians. This episode follows the money, influence, and mentorship that flowed from J. Paul Getty’s empire through the trusts, boardrooms, and social networks that later elevated Gavin Newsom. It explores how decades of wealth, politics, and education merged into a single current of power—and why that current could carry Newsom all the way to a presidential run in 2028.
