On this week’s Economy of Nothing, we ask the big questions: 👉 Did the rapture already happen and we just didn’t make the cut? 👉 Why does America feel more Idiocracy every year? 👉 And why is 28 Years Later suddenly #1 again, even though it’s trash? We spiral from fake rapture infomercials to Andrew Jackson’s bare-knuckle White House parties, UFC politics on the front lawn, Snowpiercer, nepotism in Hollywood, Netflix bumps, and how every scam becomes real once the media reports on it. Also: the upcoming EoN Christmas special, nepo babies, and the void that is the modern algorithm. 🎧 Full episode + bonus cuts at: patreon.com/economyofnothing Viseo Radio: https://youtu.be/e7pkggS5MyI 00:00 Planning for Christmas 01:16 Podcast Introduction and Rapture Discussion 02:36 Rapture Hoax and Media Influence 05:28 Scams and Media Complicity 08:07 Andrew Jackson and Historical References 16:39 Podcast Dynamics and Audience Engagement 19:19 The Quest for a Funny Subscribe Prompt 20:53 The Trump Effect on Trust 21:16 The Grift and Its Longevity 21:33 Podcast Realization and Tangents 24:46 Trailer Park Boys and J-Roc References 27:37 Rant on 28 Years Later and Zombie Movies 32:27 Nepo Babies and Hollywood's Downfall 35:54 Conclusion and Call to Action
