Listen "A Smokescreen of Chaos (Hour 2)"
Episode Synopsis
Jim Santelle, host of Amicus, a law review, joins us as cohost. As in his first term, President-Elect Trump is setting us up for a chaotic four years. We can expect to receive updates on domestic and foreign policy from unusual sources. Like late night social media rants, multi-hour rambling screeds in front of screaming fans, and troves of reposted half-formed conspiracy theories. This week's outrage bomb comes in the form of Trump's demand for Panama to give us back their prized eponymous canal, an offer to buy Greenland (not for sale, according to Denmark), and an extension for Canada to become our 51st state. While media can and should cover each of these outrages, we mustn't allow this smoke to screen us from the real issues. Trump is already failing to deliver on his campaign promises, by backpedaling and striking out at new targets.
We end the show by asking our audience to tell us something good. In this recurring segment, we highlight that the world maybe- possible- isn't entirely going to hell.
