About this Episode:

In “The Aftermath,” Jim and Braden tackle the wild fallout from a shockingly one-sided election—where even the so-called experts got it all wrong. The guys scratch a post-election itch with a fast-paced, no-holds-barred chat that weaves together unexpected Trump twists, corporate cash conundrums, and even a quirky nod to nuclear power (yep, Microsoft’s eyeing Three Mile Island!). With their signature blend of irreverent humor and sharp insight, they dissect everything from healthcare, immigration, and the tech revolution to the unpredictable ripple effects on everyday business. Buckle up for a candid, laugh-out-loud ride through political pandemonium and the ever-accelerating pace of modern life—Project Pundits style!
