Hiding in Plain Sight feat. Tony!

In this episode, we talk about why working families rely on SNAP benefits. Hint: it’s not because they’re living the high life on government-funded charcuterie boards. It’s because many corporations still behave like paying a living wage is a mythical concept, like Bigfoot or affordable housing.We dive into how the middle class keeps the entire economy running, yet somehow keeps getting treated like the “optional” middle child. Then we take a detour into the world of politics, where manipulation is basically a sport and women running for office get critiqued on their policies and their shoes. Technology, mind games, psychological influence—it’s all here. Yes, your phone is basically a tiny propaganda billboard.We also shine light on the very real and very global issue of human trafficking, because pretending it doesn’t exist isn’t helping anyone. And we wrap it all up by reminding ourselves of the most powerful force we have: community. When things get chaotic, we don’t rise alone. We rise together. Preferably with snacks.
