Episode 14: Corruption Everywhere

On this week's episode, Ian and Adam discuss myriad topics, because the political circus every week just gets more and more insane! Donald Trump is planning to launch a FIFA crypto coin to coincide with the 2026 World Cup. Oh, you know, just two corrupt organizations coming together to launch an unregulated currency. What could go wrong? 

Reports also suggest that Trump's actions with Ukraine are indirectly (or directly) benefiting Russia. And whether or not you agree with Trump's stance, it's hard to argue that Russia now has an additional leg-up since Joe Biden left office. 

Al Green disrupted Trump's address last week and some democrats voted in favor of censuring him. Ian and Adam discuss whether or not those democrats should have done so and whether or not any republicans would have done the same had it been one of their representatives. 

National Parks generate $15 in economic for every $1 spent by taxpayers. So why is DOGE set on cutting these parks to the bone? Ian and Adam discuss the reasons and the impacts of slashing National Park budgets. And stick around for a fun "Would You Rather" game at the end!
