Scott Galloway Warns of a “Slow Burn Into Fascism” — and Says THIS is the Only Fix

from The Smerconish Podcast · host Michael Smerconish, Scott Galloway

Serial entrepreneur, bestselling author and NYU Professor Scott Galloway joins Michael for a wide-ranging and provocative conversation about power, politics, and protest. Galloway explains why he believes traditional demonstrations fall short — and why targeting Big Tech’s subscription-based business models may be the fastest way to get Washington’s attention. From ICE policy and corporate influence to markets, consumer behavior, and historical warnings about silence and power, this episode sparks a fierce debate about whether canceling subscriptions can truly move the needle — and what it costs to do nothing.
