Summary

Big news! We’ve been nominated for a Webby Award for Best News & Politics Podcast! Now it’s time to bring it home — and we need your help. Cast your vote HERE. Jessica Tarlov sits down with investigative journalist Pablo Torre — host of Pablo Torre Finds Out — to break down the hidden power structures shaping everything from sports to politics. From billionaire team owners bending the rules to Donald Trump’s latest legal and political maneuvers, Torre connects the dots on how influence really works behind the scenes. They dive into prediction markets and potential insider trading, the culture wars playing out through sports, and the growing role of money and media in shaping public opinion. Plus: Is there really an “Epstein class” operating above the rules? And are we getting more transparency — or just better at hiding corruption in plain sight? #trump #uspolitics #politics #scottgalloway #jessicatarlov #republicans #gop #republicanparty #democrats #democraticparty #congressnews #epsteinclass #pablotorre #NBA Follow Jessica Tarlov, @JessicaTarlov Follow Prof G, @profgalloway Follow Raging Moderates, @RagingModeratesPod Subscribe to our YouTube Channel: https://www.youtube.com/@RagingModerates Learn more about your ad choices.
