15 Fathers of Our (New) Democracy

According to a Forbes article (that has been buried, forgotten, and is now 6 YEARS OLD!), ALL forms of US media have been completely owned and controlled by just 15 BILLIONAIRES. These people have the power to push a button, and make the whole country stupid - and from the looks of things in 2022, they seem to delight in doing exactly that! My question is: Why (and how) aren't the 15 Fathers of Our New "Democracy" common household names? **Forbes Article: https://www.forbes.com/sites/katevinton/2016/06/01/these-15-billionaires-own-americas-news-media-companies/?sh=5dd8be66660a

Recycling content for multiple videos?

Have you guys been recycling the same recorded content between episodes? I could have sworn I have already listened to these segments multiple times over this week in full length episodes?

Using Democracy to Dismantle Democracy

Hi Krystal and Saagar. You've been talking a lot about upcoming Secretary of State and Governor's elections throughout the country, especially when it comes to the slew of Republican nominees who have talked about Stop the Steal and the fact that they would have appointed alternative electors and/or not certified their state's elections. It has got me thinking about the paradox of the possibility of democracy being used to dismantle democracy itself. If voters elect such representatives and then those representatives use their power to pursue anti-democratic agendas, is this an unfortunate byproduct of democracy, a sign that democracy is disarray or something else? Would love to hear you two discuss. Hoping to see you two in Columbus, Ohio (or somewhere close by) on your live show tour!

Breaking Points Hypocrisy on Boarder Wall

Kyle's segment on the completion (or fill in) of the boarder wall seemed like a hypicrital shrill for the Democratic Oligarchy class? What is Saager and Kristals perspective? Clearly this is hypocrisy by the Democrats who just a few years ago said a board wall was racist. Make this make sense please. Thank you.
