Dan and Corey dive into the madness of politics and culture on the world's 'smartest' internet show, Libservative. They kick things off by titling the episode 'Authoritarianism, a bipartisan love story 2.0?' while debating if history repeats or just rhymes. They rip into the hypocrisy of both sides, highlighting GOP’s absurdity with Venezuela regime changes, tariffs causing businesses to pack up, and how tariffs screw American farmers. They laugh at Kamala Harris's interview with Rachel Maddow where Harris struggles through her word salad while calling Trump a communist and supports a real socialist. They also touch on the TikTok censorship mess, Tylenol supposedly causing autism, and the ever-controversial Israeli-Palestinian conflict. The highlight? An anonymous wannabe stealing the show with a rant that sounds eerily like our hosts. To wrap it up, they speculate on whether evil corporate overlords and shadowy government figures are controlling us all. Spoiler: they probably are.
