    The Big, Bad, Beautiful Bill Explained
    2025/07/04

    In this darkly comic and cutting installment of The Actual News, our host takes a sobering, irreverent stroll through the chaos of American legislation, media distortion, and existential dread. As a sweeping new bill barrels through Congress, we ask: Who actually benefits, and who gets left in the dust?

    With economic inequality rising, cuts to Medicaid and food stamps, and more cash for immigration enforcement, the episode explores the cruel math of modern governance — where austerity meets aristocracy. Along the way, we dive into the absurdity of media narratives, and the illusion of political compromise.

    Notable Quotes:

    “Hi, this is The Actual News. Easy listening for the end of the world.”

    “Are things actually bad? Are they actually getting worse, or is it just me being a little baby about everything?”

    “Skeletons we have in Congress complain about young people... I understand that sometimes when young people are complaining to them, it just doesn’t have a lot of teeth.”

    “It gets passed back like a lateral for you sports fans.”

    “Imagine if you made cuts and then you didn’t actually save money — ’cause that’s what this bill does.”

    “Now you can’t arrest somebody because they sent you a video of Baby Joe Rogan talking to Baby Theo Vaughn, which frankly I think should be illegal.”

    “Josh Hawley’s like, well, this thing is just going to shut down a bunch of rural hospitals. Anyway. I will vote for it.”

    “Maybe they won’t affect it much for you. I would have a lot of trouble seeing how it would positively affect the majority of Americans.”

    Cynical, reflective, and unflinchingly honest — with sharp political insight and grim humor for an audience navigating late-stage capitalism with earbuds in.

  • Bombs, Iran & Zohran: A New American Age

    Bombs, Iran & Zohran: A New American Age
    2025/07/01
    This week on The Actual News, we’re back from hiatus and the world hasn’t slowed down. The U.S. is bombing Iranian nuclear sites, Trump is declaring premature ceasefires, and Israel is playing puppet master with American foreign policy. It’s geopolitics as usual—absurd, aggressive, and deeply unserious. Domestically, Zoran Ani wins the Democratic primary for NYC mayor, and conservatives lose their minds over the rise of a “Muslim socialist.” We break down the panic, the polling, and the patterns behind why progressives keep winning—even when the right swears it’ll be the end of civilization. From foreign aggression to local elections, it’s another calm, rational episode of easy listening for the end of the world. “Easy listening for the end of the world. And as usual, we don't mean the end of the world per se, just more so the world as we know it.” “Obama had a deal with Iran... that we would essentially pay them so that they would not develop nuclear weapons. 'Cause see, we have the nuclear weapons. We don't want other people to have them.” “Trump came into office and one of the main things that Trump ran on... was that everything Obama did was gay.” “Conservatives are freaking out... like, ‘Oh my God, it’s a Muslim socialist! You guys remember the other person you said was gonna cause the total collapse of the city? The Latina socialist—Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez. And then it didn’t.” “The money never trickles down. You cut taxes for very wealthy people—shockingly, they don’t give that money to anyone poorer than them.” “Eric Adams is like openly just texting some Turkish officials like, ‘Yes, let’s do corruption crimes together. I love you.’” Follow & Subscribe Listen on Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast... DM on Instagram: / theactualnewsclips Stand-up special live now: @Giamdaddy on YouTube
