First things first: We had some major audio/video issues with this podcast, so ⅔ of the time Amanda is pretending to react to Maurice’s deep thoughts while she stares at a blank, soundless screen. Did we pull it off? You be the judge! Speaking of judging, we provide a brief of the Depp/Heard trial thus far and talk about why it actually matters. Then we dive into Biden’s recent inflation speech where he excoriated the “Ultra-MAGA agenda”—and earned three Pinocchios from the Washington Post. Finally, we take a look at the markets. Maurice digs into $LUNA’s nose-dive, explains what went wrong, and how to continue to invest intelligently (yes, even now. Just… maybe not in LUNA).
