Celebrating 3 Epic Years of Outsmarting Cable: Celebrate POGs Day with Special Guest Gregg Easterbrook!
Manage episode 479531540 series 3650467
Season 3 kicks off with a bang as KJ, Lance, and special guest Gregg Easterbrook dive deep into journalism, politics, and the American experiment in 2025. The crew unpacks major ethical questions: what happens when journalists like Jake Tapper cover for political allies instead of telling the full story? And what about The Atlantic's Signal chat scandal — was it right for senior editors to stay silent?
They also revisit the early Trump Administration through Easterbrook’s sharp lens and debate the evolving realities of American prosperity versus Marxist ideals. KJ leads a spirited challenge to Gregg’s controversial "Marx Was Right" column, pushing back on ideas about free markets, collectivism, and the strength of U.S. living standards today.
Plus, Gregg gives an inside look at his latest work, including All Predictions Wrong, his exclusive Substack series tackling where experts and pundits have gone off-course.
Three years strong and still cutting deeper than cable ever could — welcome back to 2 POGs Save the World.
