The fight over Trump’s legacy is playing out everywhere this week – including in a reflecting pool full of hydrogen peroxide.

On this episode of the Find Out Podcast, we break down the bizarre saga of the National Mall’s “vandalized” reflecting pool, the no-bid contracts handed to a Trump donor with a felony record, and what this small scandal reveals about a much larger pattern of cronyism and superficiality. We also reflect on Trump’s record itself – whether, after decades in public life, he’s ever delivered anything of lasting good.

Then we turn to the Middle East, examining the collapsing Iran deal, Netanyahu’s outsized influence over American foreign policy, and reports that the administration may be quietly seeking a new Israeli government. We also explore the human cost of a green light to escalate, and what it means when U.S. backing becomes a blank check.

In the back half, we dig into the midterms with a new Washington Post analysis showing a dramatic surge in Democratic turnout – including in deep-red districts – and make the case for why donating now matters far more than a check written the week before an election. We revisit the lessons of the 2008 wave, walk through a state-by-state Senate map, and confront the infighting threatening to undermine Democratic momentum before a single vote is cast.

Plus, a spirited detour into Oasis versus Nickelback, the greatest guitarist of all time, and why some debates are better left unsettled.

Could AI crash the entire banking system? What happens if an AI-powered cyberattack targets major banks, locks people out of their accounts, and sends the financial system into chaos?

On the Find Out Podcast, Adam Conner and the crew explore a chilling AI doomsday scenario: an artificial intelligence capable of attacking financial infrastructure, disrupting banking networks, and potentially triggering a Great Depression-style economic crisis.

Watch this conversation about AI safety, cyberattacks, financial system collapse, and the risks of increasingly powerful artificial intelligence.

Gas prices are exploding – and the Iran war could make the economic fallout even worse.

The guys sit down with Mr. Global to break down the oil crisis, $6+ diesel, the Strait of Hormuz, the Strategic Petroleum Reserve, and why rising diesel prices could drive inflation across the entire economy. Then they get into the increasingly bizarre Macklemore vs. Ed Sheeran controversy, billionaire stadium owners, political speech at concerts, and whether Ed Sheeran completely botched his response.

The Find Out crew, along with guest David Pakman, breaks down the problem with “debate bro” culture and explains why viral online debates often have little to do with actually finding the truth.

Long-form political debates may look like a search for facts, but David argues that they often reward whoever is more articulate, prepared, entertaining, or better at delivering memorable talking points. Without time to research claims and fact-check what was said, viewers are left deciding who “won” rather than what was actually true.

The conversation also explores Jubilee-style debates, whether political debates actually change anyone’s mind, and why the algorithms that drive social media make thoughtful, evidence-based debate harder to watch.

Is AI going to destroy the economy before it destroys humanity?

On this episode of the Find Out Podcast, Adam Conner, VP of Tech Policy at the Center for American Progress, breaks down the real risks of AI – from cyberattacks and systems that could improve themselves to mass job displacement and a potential AI bubble.

We also get into why AI companies are asking for regulation, Trump’s “let it rip” approach, whether the AI industry can actually make money, and what Democrats should do about the coming AI revolution.
