Yannis Pappas Hour

It’s post-Liberation Day and Yanni’s got thoughts. Will the American worker answer the call and put down the phone, clock in, and start sweating again? Or are we too deep into DoorDash and dopamine? Will foyers be stormed, or will everyone just leave a nasty Yelp review? And hey, what even are tariffs? A little history lesson, a little confusion, and a lot of Yanni touching his big nose between his beady eyes.   Support our show: https://www.patreon.com/yannispappashour Learn more about your ad choices.

Yanni is rooting for Duke because of Cooper—and because stereotypes are mostly true. Oakland’s amazing mayor caught in a pay-for-play scandal, a Signal group chat heard around the world, and Adolescence on Netflix is a masterpiece that captures a social media-driven epidemic.

Yanni exposes the self-congratulatory, sophistical culture of internet political gossip. Has there ever been an administration that engages with the online echo chamber like this one? The gaslighting is happening on the right now, just as it was happening on the left.

Yanni follows what’s dominating the stage—tariffs, cuts, and the like. Meanwhile, Elon Musk’s mouth is tanking Tesla stock, which isn’t great for Yanni’s wallet. Why are we re-litigating social nukes? America is pulling out of the WHO, so don’t tell the old folks. Missouri sued China—and won. Yanni breaks down the difference between private growth and the government’s role, explaining why they’re not the same.   Support our sponsors  https://www.factormeals.com/factorpodcast    Support our show  https://www.patreon.com/yannispappashour Learn more about your ad choices.

Yanni wonders whether the American worker will rise to the occasion and outperform factory and farm workers from less consumer-conditioned countries. How long will the economic squeeze be blamed on Biden? How long is Trump’s grace period for that? Is the goal to crash the economy in the short term to bring back factories and pay down the debt? Will Trump supporters go along with it? And finally, a critical look into Steve Bannon & Elon Musk. We don’t know what’s gonna happen, it’s got to play out, we are all just watching the American Pie bake.

Comedian Paul Virzi stops by to talk about being the godfather to Yanni’s daughter, how he crushes speeches and more! Being a Godfather (Νονός / Nonós) in the Greek Orthodox Church is a big deal and carries significant religious, social, and lifelong responsibilities. It’s not just an honorary title—it’s a sacred role. The godfather plays a central role in the baptism, answering on behalf of the child, reciting the Nicene Creed, and physically lifting the child out of the water (symbolizing their rebirth in Christ). He’s got to protect her from the devil! Being asked to be a godfather is a huge sign of trust and honor in Greek families.   Paul has a new special out here: https://youtu.be/Xz9wjGimAoo?feature=shared   Support our sponsors: http://viiahemp.com     code: Yannis Learn more about your ad choices.
