Episode 102 - Pressured, Prodded, and Harassed

<p>After an elongated and very loose cold open, this episode of the Epoch dives into the most recent Crypto scandal, FTX, and the general insanity of Cryptocurrency. We follow the continuing story of Elon Musk and all the freaks he's allowing back on Twitter. We cover The Biden Administrations pathetic efforts to provide Student Debt Relief, and how The Senate sucks all around -- Did you know the Pandemic is legally over? We briefly touch on the controversy with Ticketmaster. We also discuss The Q Nightclub shooting, the online cryptofash sphere of influence which ties back to Elon and Twitter, gun violence, and Working Class gun ownership. Lastly, we end on some positive labor news of the incoming rail strike. Please visit our patreon: patreon.com/epicincredulity and thank you for listening.<br> <br> <br> 00:00:00 - Cold Open!
