Chapo Trap House - 915 – Hero Hedge feat. Joe Weisenthal (3/10/25)

We start the show discussing the arrest and detention of Mahmoud Khalil in a glaring escalation of attacks on American civil liberties in behalf of Israel & its supporters. We’re then joined by journalist and co-host of the Odd Lots podcast Joe Weisenthal to take a shockingly timely (for us) look at markets, tariffs, crypto, and economic policy under the 2nd Trump administration. Is there a plan here? Who’s actually in charge? Will these tariffs ever actually happen? Are we careening toward a recession? Joe shares his thoughts on these questions and more with us. Listen to Odd Lots wherever you get podcasts, and find Joe’s work at Bloomberg here: https://www.bloomberg.com/authors/AQ0VXvE12t0/joe-weisenthal Go see Eephus as it rolls out to your neck of the woods, search for showtimes @ https://www.eephusfilm.com/

PBS News Hour - Science - Wild beavers return to England’s countryside centuries after their extinction

This past week, beavers were legally released into the English countryside for the first time since they were hunted into extinction there in the 17th century. Conservationists hailed it as a watershed moment for this keystone species, which helps combat flooding and drought by engineering the landscape with dams and channels.

Consider This from NPR - Riding ‘La Bestia’ with migrants in Mexico

Many migrants in Mexico journey north to the U.S. border by riding on top of freight trains. It's a dangerous trip: migrants have been kidnapped by cartels or killed by falling onto the tracks. And now, with the Trump administration suspending asylum applications at the border, the chances of crossing into the U.S. are even smaller than they were a few months ago.

NPR's Eyder Peralta recently rode along with migrants through a frigid night to try to answer a simple question: why do so many still take the risk?

The Daily Signal - Seniors Back DOGE: Conservative Alternative to AARP Members Embrace Cutting Waste and Abuse

“AMAC members know that the Democrats and the deep state bureaucrats are really actively trying to cover up fraud,” says Rebecca Weber, CEO of the Association for Mature Americans.


The Daily Signal’s Tyler O’Neil sat down with Rebecca Weber to discuss the older generation of American’s overwhelming support for DOGE and the Trump administration’s efforts to rid the federal government of fraud and waste.

“While Democrats are going to claim that this is threatening seniors’ benefits, that’s simply not the case. It’s the entire opposite,” Weber explains.

Fraud is the only way to prevent Social Security and Medicare from going bankrupt, Weber says.

AMAC was founded in 2007 as an alternative to AARP, emphasizing its commitment to conservative values and smaller government. It represents Americans over age 50.

Pod Save America - How a Political Party Can Rise from the Dead

Donald Trump is looking pretty invincible right now, and it's easy to lose hope that Democrats will ever be able to regain power. But back in the '90s, liberals in Britain were in a similar predicament. Alastair Campbell, right hand man to former UK Prime Minister Tony Blair and co-host of the podcast "The Rest Is Politics," joins Tommy to discuss how the Labour Party vanquished the iron grip of Thatcherism, the importance of party rebranding, and how Democrats can reclaim populism in the age of Trump.
