In this wide-ranging episode, the host celebrates Hollywood’s unexpected return to form, spotlighting the massive success of F1: The Movie. With no woke messaging, no forced diversity quotas, and a classic story of redemption and self-determination, Brad Pitt’s latest hit proves audiences still crave straightforward, inspiring entertainment. The film has already grossed nearly $300 million worldwide and boasts a rare 97% audience rating, confirming that Hollywood’s decline is self-inflicted—and reversible when politics are left at the door.

But the optimism stops there. The host pivots to the “big, beautiful bill” passed under Trump—an eye-watering spending package that includes crucial immigration enforcement but explodes the deficit to historic highs. Despite Trump’s team promising that 3% growth will pay the bill, the episode argues that this is a razor’s-edge bet that could backfire spectacularly. With a bond market already wobbling and most new jobs government-funded, the risk to the dollar and the economy is enormous.

This episode is both a celebration of cultural sanity—a film that simply entertains—and a sobering look at fiscal brinkmanship in Washington that could define America’s future.
