Raging Moderates with Scott Galloway and Jessica Tarlov

Jessica Tarlov sits down with Speaker Emerita Nancy Pelosi to discuss Trump’s corruption, safeguarding the election, rising tensions with Iran, and Congress’s constitutional role before any potential military strike. Fresh off the Munich Security Conference, Pelosi reflects on NATO, human rights, and America’s standing with its allies. They also examine the arrest of Prince Andrew and the fallout from the Epstein files, debating whether Democrats should target the “Epstein class” or keep their focus on affordability and immigration. From redistricting battles and fears of election denialism 2.0 to shutdown brinkmanship over ICE reforms and unfinished business on healthcare costs, Pelosi weighs in on the strategy ahead — plus her most iconic moments and whether she’ll attend her final State of the Union.

Scott Galloway and Jessica Tarlov break down how censoring Colbert backfired on CBS — after Texas state Rep. James Talarico’s scheduled appearance on The Late Show with Stephen Colbert was abruptly pulled off the air. Is this corporate media caving to Trump-era pressure — and is Paramount the real loser? Then: the DOJ says it’s done releasing the Epstein files — but reports suggest the public has seen just 2% of them. If that’s true, who’s still exposed, and why is the department claiming mission accomplished? Plus: a DHS funding showdown is underway in Congress. With ICE funding already secured, and public trust in government near historic lows, which party blinks first?

Immigration enforcement suddenly halts in Minneapolis as Democrats push to disrupt ICE funding and shut down DHS unless major reforms happen. At the same time, Pam Bondi’s House hearing turns into a four-hour Epstein showdown — with survivors in the room and Democrats accusing the DOJ of stonewalling. Jessica Tarlov and Aaron Parnas break down whether Bondi just handed the opposition a powerful midterm talking point. Cracks are also forming inside the GOP. House Republicans defy Trump on tariffs, triggering primary threats and raising a bigger question: is the party truly starting to break ranks — or is this just symbolic rebellion? And with 130,000 jobs added in January and unemployment ticking down to 4.3%, is the labor market shaking off the trade war drama? Plus: RFK Jr.’s pivot from vaccines skepticism to “healthy eating,” Pelosi’s endorsement of Jack Schlossberg, Prince Andrew’s reported settlement money, and an Olympic controversy that has everyone talking.

Scott Galloway and Jessica Tarlov explore a weekend that showcased two very different Americas: Bad Bunny celebrated unity across the continent, while Donald Trump leaned into culture wars, attacking an Olympic skier for expressing mixed feelings about representing the U.S. and amplifying a racist video of the Obamas. At the same time, Congress is reviewing Epstein files, Ghislaine Maxwell is publicly hinting at clemency deals, and Trump’s allies are facing political scrutiny. They also break down Trump’s economic message ahead of the midterms — from AI-driven growth claims to foreign investment promises — and whether everyday Americans are actually seeing the benefits. Plus, they tackle the skyrocketing cost of NYC private schools, now topping $70,000 a year at elite institutions, and what it means for families navigating a struggling public system.
