    Billy is joined by Steve Schmidt (founder of The Warning newsletter, YouTube channel, and podcast) to investigate the economic roots of America's current state of disruption. Steve and Billy dissect why trust in institutions is at an all time low, the isolating impact of technology, and how the ongoing SAG strike fits into the larger American labor movement.
