Original show Title: 🚨 August 19, 2025 | Hasan Piker on capitalism; Colombia Healthcare; Trump Theater; India; Lobbying | Yaron Brook Show
From socialist pundits to political theater—this episode dives into the battle of ideas shaping our world. Yaron takes on Hasan Piker’s attack on capitalism, exposes Colombia’s failing healthcare model, and calls out Trump’s latest theater act. Plus—India’s rise, the dirty game of lobbying, and what declining free-market enthusiasm says about our culture.
In the live Q&A: Ben Shapiro’s take on Trump’s “masterstroke” in Ukraine, why Europe seems silent, whether violence in America is cultural or systemic, the future of Social Security vs Medicare, “late stage capitalism,” IRS audits, and more.
