Summary
James and Al take on Elon Musk and the other billionaires attempting to take control of the government and call on the Democrats to get their act together quickly. They also discuss the importance of not drowning when Trump and his team flood the zone, focusing on issues with overwhelming support, and handing off the baton to the next generation of leaders. Then, they are joined by legendary sports broadcaster and analyst Greg Cosell to break down what it took to get the Chiefs and Eagles to the finals, share their predictions for player performances, and game out the outcome of the upcoming Super Bowl game.
