Why Black Men Drifted From Democrats (and How to Win Them Back)
Michael Bland, executive director of Black Men Vote, joins Tim, Luke, and Rich to break down what actually moved Black men toward Trump in 2024: not policy, but a democratic party that only shows up at the last minute, talks in jargon, and attacks the idea of getting rich. Mike makes the case for a message built on entrepreneurship, real financial stability, and straight talk (a $35 insulin cap is "we saved your family $20,000," not a seven-minute explainer). With gas and daycare squeezing everyone, and Black men now the most unemployed group in the country, Mike's read is simple: the…

A former Anthropic safety researcher put the odds of AI wiping out humanity in the next ten years at 10%.

David Pakman: The Algorithm Is Built for the Right
David Pakman's new book, Pay Attention, argues that nuance loses, and he brings the receipts: the platforms reward fear, anger, and messages short enough for a bumper sticker, which happens to be the right's native language. Say "the vaccines are killing millions" and it travels. Explain what vaccines actually do and you've already lost the room.We get into why the left's infighting is a feature of the algorithm rather than a real split in the party, how conservatives often aren't disagreeing with our facts so much as never being served them, and why debate-bro marathons measure preparation…
