In this episode of No Tacos For Tyrants, host Matt Mihaly dives into the intersection of high-stakes geopolitics, oligarchic influence, and the ever-growing role of Bitcoin in shaping the next era of American power.

From North Korea’s troops discovering the internet (and its, uh, darker corners) to the chaos brewing in Trump’s kakistocratic cabinet, Matt leaves no stone unturned.

You’ll learn how the crypto industry’s influence is shaping policy under Trump and how Biden’s decision to arm Ukraine with long-range missiles could have massive geopolitical consequences.

The episode also tackles the unsurprising but problematic appointment of RFK Jr. as Secretary of Health and Human Services, and Matt makes some recommendations as to how Trump could have really stepped up his troll game and made even worse picks.

On a brighter note, the show highlights some good news, like Jimmy Carter’s 10th Grammy nomination and the discovery of the world’s largest coral reef in the South Pacific. There’s always a glimmer of hope amidst the chaos!

In this episode of No Tacos For Tyrants, host Matt Mihaly dives headfirst into the chaotic landscape of politics, power, and billionaires behaving badly. Kicking things off with a reflection on the recent election losses, Matt shares insights from comedian Trae Crowder on the Democratic Party’s identity crisis and the GOP's strategic propaganda machine.

Then, it's time for “Muskwatch,” a new recurring segment that unpacks the latest antics from Elon Musk. Once widely-admired, Musk’s transformation into a self-styled supervillain raises questions about his motives, political sway, and future ambitions. Matt offers a candid look at the tech titan’s influence on everything from electric vehicles to space exploration and, potentially, government restructuring, and how Musk is already personally profiting off the election results.

Finally, Matt rounds things off with a dose of humor as he reviews Trump’s latest Cabinet picks, which aren't funny at all. From dubious defense appointments to a potential “co-Presidency” between Trump and Musk, there’s no shortage of unsettling developments to discuss.

Ending on a positive note, he shares three “good things” to remind us all that not everything in the world is quite so grim.

In this, the first episode of the pod, Matt dives into his rage and disappointment about the election and who he's angry with (Trump, Elon, Biden, etc), examines some 'whys' and finishes with an inspirational and, let's be honest, potentially cringey message of hope and resistance.

Hold the line, America. Hold the line.
