The Daily Zeitgeist

Jack and Miles dive into their holiday experiences while tackling striking news topics. They humorously critique the chaotic Golden Globes and share insightful commentary on celebrity culture. Drones take center stage with awe-inspiring displays, but the conversation shifts to somber reflections on New Year's terror attacks. They also explore the complexities of the conservative movement amid immigration debates. The discussion is filled with candid humor, meaningful insights about personal growth, and a satirical take on modern entertainment.
