Welcome to Raging Moderates. I'm Scott Galloway.
And I'm Jessica Tarlow.
Jess, what a year, 2025. There's been plenty for us to rage about, and we're very grateful for our listeners for sticking with us. This has been rewarding both psychologically and professionally. We've really enjoyed this. I feel like we're the well-lit, less toxic corner of politics right now, or maybe I'm just deluding us.
I think that that's true. I hear that. Like that people also don't want to just listen to like 45 minutes to an hour of pure Trump rage. And we do make an effort to talk about other stories. Those are my favorite stories, actually, when we talk about things like young people renting forever and like what that means and dating and relationships and like that kind of stuff. So it's been great.
I don't know. I'm thinking the new editorial direction is we bring on Scott Bessette to say incendiary, stupid, fucking head up your ass statements.
Like I'm a soybean farmer.
Oh, no, not Scott Besson. Who's the guy who basically Abby Phillips is going to make the next U.S. senator from Kentucky? What's his name?
Oh, Scott Jennings. I did a panel with him.
I'm sure he's a very reasonable guy.
I mean, yeah.
My guess is in front of the cameras, he says stupid, vile shit to evoke a reaction and tickle the censors to the far right. And then we should bring in a bunch of D-list liberals to get outraged and clutch their Birkenstocks and then they can have a fucking food fight.
I think we should offline the discussion about 2026 because that plan sounds hideous to me.
Yeah, yeah. No, I'm being cynical and angry.
I just want to hang with you and talk about politics.
Go on. That's right.
It's fun.
We haven't had a chance to hang out much. You're just always so busy with your children.
I literally beg you to text me back and like you're in town and you're like, oh, do you want me to drop you off? I'm going to go to Chez Margot. And I'm like, okay, I'll go home to my kids. You have a much cooler life than I do. But when I'm a little bit older, I have confidence that I will have a cool life. But I have little people.
Yeah, you're a celebrity. See, I don't want to go out with you socially because I couldn't stand. That's why I don't go out with Ed Elson. I can't handle people coming up to me and going, oh, Ed, we love you.
Do people swarm Ed?
I don't know because I don't go out with them. I, generally speaking, don't like to socialize with the people I work with because they have this image of me being impressive and having my act together. And I get around a few drinks and it all works. It all busts loose. It all falls apart, Jess. People don't need to see that. Unless you're a close friend of mine and we listen to Led Zeppelin and smoke too much pot in my sophomore year in the fraternity, nobody needs to see that side of the dog. No one needs to see me, you know, urinating all over the house.
No, I definitely don't want to see that.
