Strap in and strap on as the boys break down the rise of the CCP, the bloody changing of the guard, and how a young Xi Jinping went from the son of a top official… to a kid watching the Party purge his father, destroy his family, and send him to the countryside to shovel literal Communist doo-doo.

But here’s the hyena twist:

Instead of rejecting the system that wrecked his childhood, Xi ran toward it, climbed inside it, and wrapped himself in that big red blanket like a trauma-bonded panda.

The bros explore the political psychology, the historical insanity, and the generational trauma that may have shaped one of the most influential leaders on Earth.

This one’s wild.
