This Week's Episode

Trump wants to give American adults $5,000. Bright has another idea: what if we wiped out nearly $3 trillion in credit-card and student-loan debt instead?

Bright and Duds simulate the Great American Debt Reset from Day One through Year Five, including spending, banks, housing, jobs, inflation, universities and the uncomfortable possibility that America would simply rebuild the debt all over again. Plus Duds reviews Gordon Ramsay and the Four Seasons.

City SC Posse - Ep28: Navarro Has Arrived: 2 Goals, 15 Unbeaten & Minnesota Must Be a Win

Rafael Navarro didn’t need much time to introduce himself.

Thirty-four seconds into his first start for St. Louis CITY SC, the club-record signing had his first CITY goal.

By the 51st minute, he had two.

Navarro’s brace in Wednesday night’s 2-2 draw at Portland gave him the fastest goal in club history and made him the fastest CITY player ever to record a brace. He now has 12 goals and four assists in MLS this season.

And even though Portland equalized again in the 89th minute, CITY’s ridicu

Trump’s $5K Checks vs. The Great American Debt Reset | NFNP 2x31 Part 1

What if America could hit one giant financial RESET button? President Trump just proposed a $5,000 “Trump dividend” for American adults if Republicans retain control of Congress this November. Depending on who ultimately qualifies, estimates put the cost comfortably above $1 trillion, and Congress would have to authorize the spending. Trump and Vice President JD Vance have pointed toward tariff revenue, although current tariff collections would fall far short of covering the entire proposal. W

City SC Posse - Ep27: We Owe Wallem an Apology: CITY Stuns Vancouver & Portland Is Next

All right, Conrad Wallem. We owe you one. Last week’s CITY SC Posse literally included the words “Wallem Must Sit.” Then CITY went into first-place Vancouver, won 3-1, and Wallem responded with his first goal of the season, another assist and a spot on MLS Team of the Matchday alongside Tomas Totland. Yoann Damet was also named Coach of the Matchday. So Bright opens Ep27 with an official apology. Sort of. We break down CITY’s massive road win over Vancouver, how St. Louis recovered after con

CITY SC Posse - Ep26: CITY Went All-In: Navarro Is Here, Vancouver Is Next, & Wallem Must Sit

St. Louis CITY SC went all-in at the transfer deadline. Now comes the hard part: figuring out who actually plays. CITY made the biggest move in club history, acquiring Rafael Navarro from Colorado for a club-record $12 million and giving the 26-year-old Brazilian striker a Designated Player slot. Navarro arrives with 38 MLS goals, including 10 this season, and immediately becomes the true No. 9 CITY has been searching for. But he wasn't the only addition. CITY also brought in 6'4" USMNT forwa

GTA VI: The $2 Billion Video Game | NFNP 2x30

Could Grand Theft Auto VI really be a $2 billion video game? Rockstar hasn't confirmed the final price tag, but high-end estimates have put the total cost of developing and marketing GTA VI near $2 BILLION, potentially making it the most expensive entertainment production ever created. Bright and Duds dig into what could possibly cost that much, from more than a decade of development and hundreds of thousands of animations to an absurdly detailed open world designed to make fictional Florida f

The College Debt Crisis & the Broken Promise of Adulthood

College was sold as the ticket to the middle class. Get the degree. Get the job. Buy the house. Start the family. Build the life. Retire someday before your knees file for divorce. That was the pitch. And to be fair, for a lot of people, college …

CITY Escaped Kansas City With a Point and a Migraine
