  • Pondering the Gulf of America (and Other Political Absurdities)
    Jan 8 2025
    In this episode, David dives into the bizarre claims and ambitions of some of the most controversial figures shaping global politics today. From Donald Trump’s outlandish ideas about renaming the Gulf of Mexico to the Gulf of America, to his territorial desires over Canada, Greenland, and the Panama Canal, David ponders aloud at the absurdity of his land grabs and what they could mean for international relations. Meanwhile, Marjorie Taylor Greene, Elon Musk, and Errol Musk weigh in with their own strange political agendas, from advocating for a divisive figure like Tommy Robinson to backing far-right movements across Europe. The episode also touches on the unsettling trend of amplifying disinformation, the dangers of unchecked power, and how history might be repeating itself as we approach the 2030s. Is the world heading for a repeat of the 1930s, or are we too far gone to change course? Tune in for a wild ride through the corridors of power and conspiracy!
