Summary

Why is common sense disappearing from America’s major cities? Kennedy is joined by Jimmy Failla for a deep dive into the crumbling infrastructure and questionable leadership in Los Angeles and Seattle. The duo breaks down the real-world consequences of progressive policies, specifically exploring why Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez’s (AOC) "Tax the Rich" strategy is backfiring and driving wealth—and stability—out of blue states. Jimmy also shares one of the most important lessons he's shared with his son Lincoln, the art of the heckle.
