Capital Gains

podcast April 18, 2025


Background
share close

This week on The Brilliant Idiots, Charlamagne tha God and Andrew Schulz discuss the recent all-female space flight and dive into the wild world of UFO conspiracy theories, space tourism, and whether celebs launching into orbit are flexing a little too hard. Then they talk money—who’s paying taxes (and who’s not), the rich getting richer, and why capitalism needs some serious guardrails to keep things fair.

They also break down why cities keep throwing public money at fancy new sports arenas, the impact of gentrification, and what real community investment should look like. Also takes on free speech, gang culture, immigration, 90s nostalgia, and why growing up is underrated. Oh, and yes… fat jokes. Brace yourself.
