Ken and Betsey review over five years of Beach Talks as Ken posts the podcast’s 400th episode. Three friends check in to celebrate -  Darcy McKenzie, Osahon Obazuaye, and Ken Fong. Betsey, a Chicago resident, shares some of her experience this month spending three delightful weeks in Tuscon - the Arizona Desert. Ken and Betsey then compare notes on the new administration’s first two weeks in power. It’s been a firehose of headlines, including those controversial cabinet appointments, an avalanche of executive orders, bizarre explanations (for Southern California fires and then those terrible plane crashes), targeted attacks on D.E.I., inflationary tariffs, trade wars, and plans to absorb Canada, Mexico, Panama, Greenland, and now Gaza under America’s domain. Elon Musk takes the axe to congressionally mandated programs. Oh - don’t forget - it’s now “The Gulf of America” and “Mt. McKinley.” Predictions of the imposition of the feared Project 2025 (which the then-candidate for President claimed he knew nothing about) turn out to be way understated. Turns out, it was a detailed script for these first two weeks. The President and his supporters said they would “drain the swamp,” but it looks more like Steve Bannon’s colorful prediction - that on Day One, Trump would “flood the zone with sh*t.” 

Ken and Betsey commit to keep this podcast and their Beach Talks going - we need each other now more than ever.
