Spoiler: This episode includes beer. Just… not the way you hope.

This week on Capital Call: with The Millegan Brothers, we cover light topics like international trade breakdowns, militarized drone swarms, 110-hour workweeks that literally kill, and Warren Buffett casually handing off the keys to a $1 trillion empire. Also: Netflix finds a way to make more money when you're broke, Disney opens a theme park somewhere dry and oil-rich, and Portland might get a baseball team if Salt Lake forgets to show up. Oh - and in our "This Day in Economic History" segment, we unpack a short squeeze so brutal it nearly broke the market and left one unlucky investor... extremely overcooked. Stay tuned. Stay liquid. Welcome to the next episode of the Capital Call: with the Millegan Brothers, managing partners of the Woodworth Contrarian Fund with a new episode released every Monday morning at 2 AM Eastern / 5 AM Pacific.
