Scott Galloway and Jessica Tarlov sit down with Senator Rand Paul (R-KY) to unpack a volatile political moment in Washington.

In the wake of the attempted assassination at the White House Correspondents’ Dinner, Republicans and President Trump are blaming Democrats for fueling political violence — while critics argue the response is part of a familiar cycle of partisan escalation, and that President Trump has espoused even more egregious rhetoric throughout his presidency.

At the same time, Congress is debating a controversial proposal to fast-track Trump’s $400 million White House ballroom, exposing new divisions over spending, security, and priorities inside the GOP.

The conversation also turns to free speech and media backlash, as Jimmy Kimmel faces renewed pressure from the Trump camp following a controversial joke that aired just days before the attack.

Senator Paul weighs in on political responsibility, party loyalty, rising polarization, and what these flashpoints reveal about the state of the Republican Party heading into the midterms and 2028.

The Prof G Pod with Scott Galloway

Raging Moderates: Trump Blames Democrats, Demands His Ballroom, and Attacks Jimmy Kimmel Again (ft. Sen. Rand Paul)

The race for global AI supremacy is accelerating—and getting messier. Alice Han and James Kynge break down the escalating tensions between the U.S. and China as accusations of AI model “distillation” and intellectual theft collide with China’s own rapid breakthroughs, including DeepSeek’s latest powerful new model.

But the competition isn’t just happening in code. While Washington warns of industrial-scale AI copying, Wall Street is quietly increasing exposure to China through record renminbi borrowing and offshore “dim sum” bonds—suggesting a deeper financial realignment underway beneath the geopolitical friction.

And inside China, a very different story is unfolding: a rising trend of “pretend-to-work” offices, where young people are paying just to simulate employment amid growing youth unemployment and economic pressure.

The Case for Making Up with China, and Which Car Company Is Winning the Energy Crisis?

David Brooks, a writer now at The Atlantic and a bestselling author, joins Scott to unpack what he sees as a deeper crisis in America — not political, but moral. They discuss the rise of resentment, why so many people feel a lack of purpose, and how institutions have failed to shape character and meaning.

They also explore how social media and AI are reshaping identity, why young people feel increasingly unmoored, and what it takes to build a life with purpose.
