From the brink of WW3 following Israel’s attack on Iran, to the hypocrisy of Western leaders, Jemma and Marina unpack the realities of war, nuclear tensions, and the unchecked power of certain world leaders.
They chat about Netanyahu’s latest warmongering, expose how some leaders operate without accountability (because who needs rules, right?), and call out the West’s Olympic-level hypocrisy when it comes to nuclear policies. Expect sharp analysis, unexpected moments of agreement with Tucker Carlson and Marjorie Taylor Greene (yep, didn’t see that one coming), and some unhinged audience commentary from GB News that’ll make you question reality.
And don’t worry, amidst all the doom, there’s levity—because as terrifying as world events are, at least you didn’t throw a birthday party no one showed up to.
Tune in, laugh through the pain, and prepare to scream into the void alongside them.
