The U.S. government officially shut down at midnight on October 1, 2025. In this episode of Do We Have To, Sean and Emily Miller (with Executive Producer Colin “Smedium” Mascal) unpack the reality of a shutdown: what stops, what keeps running, and why political gridlock brought us here again. Before diving into the main topic, we revisit some ’90s nostalgia highlights and draw a live card from the Let’s Get Deep relationship game. And we close with something positive — celebrating our Do We Have To Crew Peloton team’s top-20 leaderboard finishers for the week of Sept 22–28. Even if Washington goes dark, the pedals keep turning.
