In this episode, Alex focuses on the lead-up and opening day of the Paris Summer Olympics. It seems like the universe, mother nature, and some Parisians really do not want the games to take place. From Arson attacks on major French railways to the River Seine not passing Olympic water quality standards to a very bloated opening ceremony, Alex argues that these games seem to be a perfect microcosm of our current geopolitical and cultural moment. Alex also briefly talks about JD Vance’s early issues as the VP nominee, Bibi Netanyahu’s lie-riddled address to Congress, and why Biden’s address to the nation was just mediocre.
