With the market in full-blown tantrum mode—thanks to headline whiplash over tariffs, Fed drama, and bond sell-offs—we decided it was time to do the unthinkable: relax. That’s right. This week, your favorite duo dials back the financial fear porn to take a breather from the endless stream of doomsday news. Don’t worry, we still dissect what happened in the markets, how Treasury yields spiked like your heart rate reading economic headlines, and why even Jerome Powell might be asking for a mental health day. But we also peel back the curtain a bit on how we cope with it all, why taking a step back can be the smartest move you make, and how to avoid becoming another casualty of financial anxiety.

➡️ This one isn’t about panic—it’s about perspective. We break down what’s real, what’s performative, and why everyone suddenly thinks they’re an expert on the VIX. Plus, Chris has a few spicy thoughts on media overreach and Saied waxes poetic about cortisol (again). If you’re looking for a much-needed reset with just enough macro to keep your edge—this episode is your serotonin shot with a side of smarts.
