It’s 4:20, so naturally, Wolf and Vincent kick things off with a discussion on fairness, both in audio levels and society at large. As Wolf holds it down live from Washington Square Park, Vincent runs the show from the studio, questioning whether Elon Musk’s power is real or just another media illusion. The two spiral into a debate over direct action, political strategy, and what should be done about billionaires hoarding land. Wolf lays out his plan for redistribution while Vincent challenges whether the system will ever allow it. Meanwhile, a particularly persistent park regular gives Wolf an impromptu security challenge.
From Billboard’s Woman of the Year to James Bond’s Amazon takeover, the episode swerves between politics, pop culture, and the inevitable doom of late-stage capitalism.
Will Wolf get elected and save us all? Will Vincent finally embrace optimism? And most importantly: Who’s bringing the six-foot public bongs?
