We found out this morning that Pope Francis died at the age of 88. He was a transformative figure both in and out of the Catholic Church. We discuss his twelve year reign as The Pontiff and why his message flies in the face of a those who would think his message of inclusivity and love to be "too liberal". Who says it's never too early for a sequel? Well, Pete Hegseth is out here with Signal-Gate 2 and this time he's brought some new players into this high security group chat. It's Monday, so we have Matt Randolph aka Mr. Global back on the show! He's an oil and gas expert with over 30 years experience and we're talking about "Drill baby drill!!" as well as the oil industries response to the current administration.
