We continue the data-center discussion with a bizarre Jason Kelce campaign involving Garage Beer and Liquid Death, then return to Florida as Byron Donalds lays out his agenda after winning the Republican primary. Tony praises Donalds and unloads on James Fishback and political prediction markets, while Anna argues that Ron DeSantis remains difficult for any successor to match because of his decisions during the COVID years.
South Carolina politics gives us another memorable clip when interim Senator Darline Graham is asked whether Taiwan and the South China Sea are national-security concerns and admits that national security is not her area of expertise. That turns into a debate over outsider candidates, political qualifications and AOC’s prospects in 2028. We also discuss Newsom, Shapiro, Mark Kelly, Chris Murphy and other possible Democratic contenders before CNN’s interview with Natalie Harp’s estranged brother leads us into Harp’s loyalty to Trump and her personal history.
The back half gets personal and then criminal. We debate why younger high-profile women sometimes date or marry much older men, whether status changes attraction and how dating changes with age. Then we cover former Florida biology teacher Brooke Anderson, who serves prison time after sexually abusing a student and now faces a civil suit. Anna talks about dating apps, her skepticism toward marriage and why she values a partner freely choosing to stay before we prepare for the fourth hour and Fight Club.
