In today's episode, host Josh Hamilton sits down with commentator and writer Esther Krakue for a lively discussion on the blurred moral lines in politics, the unprecedented re-election of Donald Trump, the economic struggles in the UK, and the shortcomings of current British leadership under Keir Starmer. Esther and Josh delve into topics ranging from the influence of big tech moguls on politics to the complex and often corrupt nature of modern governance. They even touch on the societal impacts of economic policies and the seemingly ineffectual administration of current leaders.
