Russell Brand, Trump, and the Culture of Grift

Oct 27, 2024

In this episode, Peter and Devon discuss Russell Brand, Trump, and the culture of grift that is currently thriving--particularly on the political right.

This conversation was inspired by Brand's recent announcement that he's selling a "magical amulet" to protect people from "evil energies." Which honestly seems more interesting than Trump shoes or Trump crypto.

The conversation takes a few turns till we eventually talk ourselves into needing the magical amulet. We have a few ideas for improving the tech and making it legit. It may even be something that could change the world.
