Clapping Is Violent and Other Thoughts That Keep Me Up

from Bree's World · host Bree

Today on the show: We dive deep into María Corina Machado handing her Nobel Peace Prize to Trump (is it pandering? manipulation? genuine support?), the constitutional implications, and what it means when foreign policy might be shaped by ego-stroking. Then we spiral about why humans express appreciation by violently slapping their hands together — seriously, who came up with clapping?Next up: the darkest Would You Rather ever. Would you want to know the DATE of your death or the CAUSE? I go back and forth about seventeen times and honestly still don't have a solid answer. Spoiler: both options are nightmare fuel.Also: I want another instant film camera (the Kodak Charmera is cute but not worth it), Greenland is apparently worth $700 billion, and the US is big mad about the EU's "cheese monopoly" in a new South America trade deal.It's chaos. It's existential dread. Let's go, Slimers. Powered by Firstory Hosting
