We back in this mug. Season 2 of The HLS Podcast kicks off with Scrota, Electrik, and Rebel fighting through viruses, mic mishaps, and existential dread to bring y’all that unfiltered heat.

This week, the fellas go in on:

• 🤮 Why “success porn” online is a scam, and what real value sounds like
• 🤔 Who can you trust anymore? (Spoiler: not that McDonald’s stranger in the Bronx)
• 📉 Why 5-star reviews might be lies and 1-stars might be gospel
• 🧠 AI voice scams, crypto rugs, and how Sam Altman almost got jumped by Pikachu
• 📷 How Scrota’s passport photo turned him into a shadow creature

Plus: government shutdown nonsense, liberal delusions, Ezra Klein vs. Ta-Nehisi Coates, and a wild grammar tangent about “amuse-bouches” and insubordinate clauses.
