Midnight Therapy #75 - Merry Griftmas!

We’re rolling right into the Christmas spirit after a full weekend of trolley rides, Santa trains, lights, cocoa, and pure holiday nostalgia. From toy deliveries to train whistles, it’s officially Christmas Field Season and we are in it.Then we take a sharp turn into modern American grift: the Grinch Meal at McDonald’s and the SpongeBob Meal at Burger King. Are we even pretending these are meals anymore or is this just merch with fries? The real scam is the packaging… and somehow we all keep falling for it.After that, we get serious with a rapid-fire current-events recap:Pete Hegseth and the controversial drug-boat strikesVenezuela’s shift into authoritarian socialismMinnesota, Tim Walz, and exploding fraud claimsThe Somali community controversy…and how the entire Trump administration feels both aggressive and immature at the exact same time. Powerful but childish. Serious but bizarre. Hard to read, and impossible to ignore.We close with a truth bomb about the music industry: we’re running out of paths that are truly creative. Everything is either mediocre, manufactured by corporate evil, or increasingly run by AI. Then comes a Midnight Therapy rant on how AI music might be the beginning of the end of the human creative spirit.So grab a candy cane, get cozy, and settle into the holiday chaos.Stay tuned for more insights and stories on Midnight Therapy, hosted by Cat Matthews.
