Are We on the Brink of Economic Collapse? (And Does Anyone Even Care?) | Unscripted Company

The economy is teetering, the housing market is a joke, and we’ve got politicians who’ve been in office longer than some civilizations have existed. In this episode, we dive deep into the looming recession, Trump’s high-stakes gamble with interest rates, and whether America is due for a financial reckoning. Also on the docket: the absurd cost of furniture, the brutal reality of modern wages, and what immortality would actually look like (hint: it's lonelier than you think). If you’ve ever felt like the system is rigged, this one’s for you.
