Ep. 326 - A Ballooning Problem

April 7, 2026·47 min
Episode Description from the Publisher

The trouble with keeping something big under wraps is that eventually, the bubble bursts. Case in point, Bryon Noem, husband of the former Secretary of Homeland Security, was quietly sending tens of thousands of dollars to fetish models and circulating photos of himself in fake balloon boobs across the internet until, inevitably, it all came out. When confronted, he simply said, "I don't care." Congress, meanwhile, has run the national debt from $3.3 trillion in 1990 to $38.5 trillion today, left the Department of Homeland Security completely unfunded, and fled Washington. Just ask Lindsey Graham, who was photographed at Space Mountain with a bubble wand. David and Brad also check in on Tiger Woods, who is a billionaire, lives on a private island, and still cannot arrange a ride home.
