Political Playlist Happy Hour

On this episode of Political Playlist Happy Hour, Michael and Anna continue their exiting new "Primary Watch" series with Candidate Eric Jones. Eric is a businessman and nonprofit executive running in California's 4th Congressional District against a 14 term incumbent! Affordability, healthcare and housing are his biggest issues, and he has vowed not to accept corporate PAC money or lobbyist donations. This seems to be a growing trend among our new young leaders, and for good reason! We get into all that with Eric, as well as the biggest challenges facing his district and our home state of California.

On this episode of the Happy Hour, Michael and Anna discuss How To Talk About Data Centers, specifically the one in Utah that Shark Tank's own Mr. Wonderful is trying to build at the expense of the taxpayers--oh, and the whole environment of the state of Utah. He even got into a combative interview with the new People's Hero Tucker Carlson over why taxpayers should fund this type of project. Data centers are all the rage right now, given the exponential growth of AI, and the massive computing power needs of these systems. So whether you use Claude or not, you better believe AI is here to stay and we better have a plan for how to safely do this.

On this Happy Hour, Anna goes it alone as she welcomes author Soman Chainani to discuss his new book, "Young World" which imagines a world in which a 17-year-old becomes president of the United States and sets off on the adventure of a lifetime. It's a New York Times bestseller, and that makes sense based on Soman's track-record. He's the author of the wildly popular children's series "The School For Good And Evil" which has sold over 4.5 million copies in 80 different countries, and was a hit show on Netflix.

On this episode of the happy hour, Michael and Anna discuss how to talk about Trump's upcoming visit to China, where he will hold a crucial summit with President Xi to discuss the ongoing war in Iran, Taiwan, Trade, and most importantly AI safety. This is a highly consequential meeting, though as we point out, it isn't likely that any major agreement comes from this. But we discuss what a "win" looks like and why you should be aware of these core agenda items.
