Story 1: What is the real solution to America’s affordability crisis? A viral Ben Shapiro clip sparked outrage after he claimed young Americans aren’t entitled to live where they were born. But is he wrong? Will and The Crew look at the broader context behind the clip and discuss how people should navigate the issue. Story 2: Retired Navy SEAL, Author of ‘Extreme Ownership’, and Host of the ‘Jocko Podcast,’ Jocko Willink joins Will to further discuss America’s affordability crisis and share his thoughts on the so called ‘entitlement problem’ facing young people today. Later, Jocko explains how the Department of War has evolved in recent months and what the U.S. needs to do to keep pace with the rest of the world. Story 3: AI, humanoid robots, and genetically engineered babies are no longer science fiction. So how do you raise strong, grounded kids in a world that’s changing faster than ever? Will brings in The Crew to discuss. In ‘Final Takes,’ Will and The Crew break down 'Breaking Bad' creator Vince Gilligan's critique of AI and look at some of the most used passwords from a recent data breach, lamenting the world’s lack of cybersecurity.
