Ep. 145: Farmland for Civilization (Ft. Makana Gellatly)

The Founder returns! At long last, the highly anticipated event of the holiday season is here!!

After a year of living in New York City, our OG co-host — Makana Gellatly — is back with a new aura of NY elitism to share with the fans. We hear about living in a shoebox, moving to midtown Manhattan, and how it only took him 1 month of living in NYC to yell at tourists to get out of the way on crowded sidewalks. Makana & I wrestle with the conclusion that we aren’t (and will never be) as talented at trading stocks as our elected representatives in Congress. Pelosi’s knowledge is unmatched, we are just surprised that BlackRock hasn’t come calling for her services. 

Makana shares how his grandma got interested in Tarot card readings during the 2024 presidential election & how heartbroken she was at the result. The cards misled her into believing it would be a Kamala landslide, how could the spirit realm possibly be wrong?!?

As always, we hear some bold public-policy solutions proposed by Makana: a ‘Casey Anthony’ button for airline travel, a firm anti-parade stance in cities, and he speculates on the “Free-Play” segment of the Biden administration. Don’t miss out on some spicy bartending stories near the end of the episode, Makana didn’t almost get stabbed for nothin’!
