The Infinity train rolls on with a fun and depressing-ass talk about America’s structural problems. This discussion is like when you start out trying to talk through an argument and end up just making it worse. We prognosticate on the future of the NFL; talk about the funniest thing that could come out of the JFK files; wonder why an American service member was in Niger; and go hard on the imminent demise of our monetary system and the subsequent crumbling of society. Finally, we wrap up by telling Elon Musk to get his ass in electric gear and stop abusing his workforce.
