213 | We're Not in Mayberry Anymore

from The Economy of Nothing Podcast · host Mike Bedont

Back from the beach planet and straight into the hard truths. Mr. Green breaks down the 2026 Zelda Triforce Grift — three rotating narratives keeping the S&P 500 alive: Space will save us, Quantum will save us, AI will save us. Same players, same money, different story every cycle. From there the conversation spirals into media distraction, the Foxconn/Steve Jobs hypocrisy, why phone addiction is brainwashing you, and why nostalgia is a product they sell you — not a real place you can go back to. Plus what happened to physical comedy, why modern acting is just people staring at each other, and why Bugs Bunny matters more than anyone admits. Welcome to Griff City. Fundamentals don't matter here.
