Special guest co-host, podcast star Billy Dees. Politics shouldn’t feel like picking a jersey. We take the gloves off groupthink and dig into what Trump 2.0 has actually changed—where the policies hit, where they help, and where they hurt. From tariffs that brought in cash and recalibrated leverage to the real costs for small importers and tech supply chains, we unpack the trade math without hiding the downside. We pair that with a hard look at the border: near-zero illegal crossings, the case for strict screening, and why nuance died once the issue became a forever football for both parties.The conversation widens into the systems that power prosperity. We question a college-first culture and make the case for skilled trades, faster pre-professional tracks, and a workforce ready to build what policy tries to onshore. Then we move to defense and space. If spending is sky-high, why are we behind on hypersonics? Where are the dollars that put armor on soldiers instead of gathering dust in procurement? We argue for NASA not as nostalgia but as an engine of GPS, microchips, materials, and medical breakthroughs that lift everyday life.If you’re ready for policy without pom-poms—and solutions that trade heat for light—hit play, subscribe, and share this with someone who still believes nuance is worth saving. Leave a review and tell us the one policy you’d fix first.Send us a textSoulTech with Shaman Isis Trailer Shaman Isis Books, Magazines, Films & More  Learn about the work of Shaman's SoulTechFoundation.org. Support the showThe Edgy, Soul-Stirring Podcast for Conscious Living in the Age of AI & Aquarius Hosted by 3x Best-Selling Author, Spiritual Leader, and founder of the SoulTech Foundation, Cynthia L.
