100 Days into Trump 2.0 and the Decline of America 30:10

9 päivää sitten30:10

30:10

Just over 100 days into Trump’s second term, the political and economic landscape is shifting rapidly, with aggressive tariff policies causing a projected 35% drop in imports at Southern California ports, raising fears of supply chain disruptions and shortages. In this episode, we unpack the immediate domestic effects, declining global perceptions, and economic instability marked by reduced tourism and capital flight. We draw connections between Trump’s actions and Project 2025, a conservative blueprint for reshaping government, despite his public denial of involvement. Finally, we reflect on the progressive policies that built modern American society and how they are now under threat, emphasizing that these developments carry real consequences for all Americans, regardless of political party affiliation.

Trump’s Playbook: Policy by Whiplash 34:00

25 päivää sitten34:00

34:00

After celebrating John’s birthday, we’re back to address recent feedback from our March 22nd episode, particularly claims of “Trump Derangement Syndrome.” As public servants, our concerns stem from direct experience with the impact of erratic policies. Sudden tariff shifts, for example, disrupt planning and create instability, not out of partisanship, but because effective governance matters. We also examine federal spending priorities, where minimal investment in homelessness contrasts sharply with massive military and debt expenditures. These choices reveal more about values than speeches do. Looking ahead to the midterms, we’ll discuss what Democrats must offer beyond opposition, including clear plans to govern effectively.

America's Economy and Institutions are Crumbling 33:53

8 weeks sitten33:53

33:53

Following our discussion on the Trump administration’s attack on DEI initiatives in our last episode, we now shift our focus to recent economic policies, such as tariffs, that contradict campaign promises to tackle inflation and lower the cost of living starting on day one. We also examine the administration’s sweeping executive actions, including efforts to dismantle the Department of Education, which signal a fundamental reshaping of the federal government. As these radical changes accelerate, we ask: how much more can the U.S. endure, and for how long? With the 2026 midterm elections on the horizon, the stakes couldn’t be higher. Resisting the Republican majority currently enabling Trump’s agenda is essential to restoring the checks and balances our democracy desperately needs. March 22, 2025…

Resisting the Attack on DEI 33:45

In this episode, we reflect on how Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion initiatives have increasingly become a target for the Trump administration, with recent policy shifts and administrative actions designed to dismantle progress achieved in promoting equity in the workplace and education. As two individuals who are part of several groups which benefit from DEI initiatives, we share our personal perspectives on why such initiatives are important and the positive impact which they have for society.

It is officially the five-year anniversary of John and Marcus hosting The RTWJ Podcast, having proudly first started pre-pandemic in February 2020! And to celebrate the occasion, it'll be one of our classic mixed topic episodes. We will start by covering the radical developments in U.S. politics since we last joined you on January 19th, now that Donald Trump is President of the United States and has released a flood of executive orders that have impacted numerous people around the country. But we'll close the episode by asking John about his trip last month to Disney World in Orlando, which naturally will lead to in-depth analysis of Disney parks (Disney was one of the first topics we covered when we started the show back in 2020).

With John still away on vacation and enjoying the life of luxury, Marcus is holding down the fort for The RTWJ Podcast with today’s episode. We’ll touch on a few current “hot topics” for the month of January, starting with a brief mention of the upcoming inauguration of President-elect Donald Trump, followed by some reflection about what have been the most catastrophic wildfires in Los Angeles history since our last episode release on January 5th. We’ll then conclude with a mentioning the rapidly-evolving TikTok situation, but wait for John’s return to dive into the details about that, as well as hear about his experience visiting Walt Disney World for the first time.

We’re back with our first episode of 2025, where after some housekeeping we start off with reflecting on what concerns us with upcoming major political transition activities as we approach Inauguration Day in just two weeks. But after taking that moment to reflect, we then have some fun focusing on a positive upcoming event for the year, which is John’s first visit to Walt Disney World in Orland Florida in just a few days from this episode release. As we navigate Inauguration Day, our next episode scheduled for release that day will focus on John’s experience and provide a much needed break from the overwhelming media coverage expected on that day.

Post-Election Blues 28:58

As President-elect Donald Trump continues to name appointees to his upcoming administration and shares bold plans for his first day in office, we question what policies he will actually be able to implement after Inauguration Day, as well as the extent to which such policies will impact American democracy and society. Based on what we have seen and heard so far, we are more concerned than ever with how the initiatives of Trump and his allies may impede the societal progress we stand for in terms of inclusion and providing opportunities to all.

After a busy October and a delayed episode release schedule, we are happy to be back on track with a new release for November 15th! Having been away during the most critical moments of the race for the White House, we're reflecting on the results, our disappointment with the Harris-Walz ticket not being successful in winning the race, and the initial concerns we have as we approach Inauguration Day in just a little more than two months.

We’re back with a brand new episode, and we start off with a throwback to our days being branded as The Real Talk with JAM Podcast, followed by allowing ourselves to dive into some tangents, including trying to understand why credit card companies sell gift cards. We then briefly reflect about the first presidential debate earlier this month between Harris and Trump (having delayed the release of this episode), as we prepare for an election that is now only 41 days away.

For our Labor Day weekend episode, we’re diving deeper into the race for the White House as Election Day is just a little more than two months away. And as the Harris and Trump campaigns continue pushing along this final stretch, one question we explore is whether the electoral college is still the best way to elect the President of the United States, or if it’s time to consider transitioning to the popular vote.
