Episode Details

Joe Pags breaks down a wild day in D.C. as President Trump announces record-breaking price cuts on GLP-1 medications, dropping costs from nearly $2,000 a month to under $100. Pags recaps the President’s remarks and answers the questions everyone’s been asking about access, safety, and Big Pharma’s reaction. Then — a shocking moment in the Oval Office as a pharma executive collapses live on camera, sparking new questions about transparency and pressure inside the industry. Later, Senator Markwayne Mullin joins Pags to tackle the shutdown showdown — explaining why Democrats backed out of a deal at the last minute, what’s really holding up negotiations, and whether tariffs or SNAP funding could be the keys to ending the standoff. The two also discuss NYC’s new mayor Mamdani, how he rose from obscurity to power, and what that says about modern Democratic strategy. It’s a fast-moving, eye-opening hour of policy, politics, and pure Pags perspective.
