Episode Details

I start this episode with money & investing, recapping 2025 market performance. market volatility, tariff & trade, diversification, inflation, housing, and consumer behavior. Hopefully, it'll help us to think clearly about money in the year ahead.

Then I get into what’s been unfolding in Venezuela and Minneapolis. I talk about the arrest of the Venezuelan president and how US forces were able to capture Nicolás Maduro. I also break down the Minneapolis ICE shooting, bodycam footage, and how early media narratives collapsed (or didn't) once more facts emerged.

I also touch on global political repression, selective law enforcement, masculinity and leadership failures, media credibility, censorship dynamics, and much more.
