Unlike Rubicon, this show isn’t limited run; it’s also not limited in focus, because the trends I’m talking about span politics, law, media, tech, culture. So it’ll run as long as you tune in, or until I cash in my bitco… uh, yeah for as long as you tune in. So please subscribe!

It’s live! And our first episode features a special conversation with about loss and perseverance, why unchecked optimism fails us in the face of deep corruption, and how renewal runs through clear-eyed reckoning with trauma—personal and civic.

This is weak tea and, worse, by treating the election as a rearguard against further backsliding, rather than a forward-charging opportunity to restore the right, it signals tactical retreat.
