Tune in here to this Friday edition of the Brett Winterble Show!

Brett kicks off the show with Pete Kaliner for this week’s Friday Hangover; they discuss everything from Cracker Barrel’s controversial logo change to the erosion of beauty in modern public art and architecture. With signature wit and sharp commentary, the two hosts riff on the idea of "art by explanation," criticizing the trend of abstract, government-funded art installations that lack immediate aesthetic value. The conversation also touches on branding absurdities, like the Cracker Barrel rebrand removing the iconic cracker and barrel imagery, sparking a comedic monologue from “Uncle Herschel.”

Later, Brett dives into the global implications of Europe’s fading military readiness, sharing sharp commentary from Steve Bannon on the continent’s lack of resources and political will to defend itself. Highlighting countries like Germany, the U.K., and France, Brett underscores how minimal enlistment rates, financial instability, and domestic unrest have left NATO allies ill-prepared to support Ukraine or deter Russian aggression. He references reports of massive Ukrainian casualties and questions the long-term viability of the West’s current strategy.
