Welcome back to Social Venture Podcast EP #036 — where chaos meets commentary. This week, the crew breaks down three stories that had the internet arguing all week: Gavin Newsom’s new Glock law, Kim Kardashian’s “pube thong” launch, and why LA might just have the worst drivers in the country.We start with California’s controversial new gun legislation, which targets Glock sales and so-called “converter kits.” What does it actually mean for everyday Californians, small gun shops, and the future of firearm ownership in the state? We unpack the politics, the backlash, and the hypocrisy that always seems to follow Sacramento’s latest “safety push.”Then, things get a little hairy — literally — as we dive into Kim K’s bold new Skims drop: the “pube thong.” Is it genius marketing, a fashion statement, or just another viral stunt? We debate the line between empowerment and absurdity in celebrity culture and what this says about how brands keep finding new ways to break the internet.Finally, we hit the streets of LA — metaphorically — to talk about what’s making driving here unbearable. From influencers filming in traffic to luxury car drivers thinking blinkers are optional, it’s a full therapy session for anyone who’s survived the 405 at rush hour.
