Summary

From May of 2025 - The Best Of The Buck Brief. Is Michelle Obama the most overrated person of our time? Author and commentator Peachy Keenan joins the show to weigh in. From Michelle’s floundering podcast to the performative nature of progressive book collections, we break down the media machine propping up the Obamas, and why fewer people are tuning in. Peachy, author of Domestic Extremist, offers insights into the culture war, elite institutions, and the illusion of influence. They also take a detour into the Ivy League and why Trump going after Harvard is just the beginning.
