Eric starts off the episode by paying tribute to his late Grandfather, a member of the Greatest Generation who recently passed away. For the main topic, Jacob takes a closer look at the apparent discrepancy in America's current economic situation, with unemployment low despite inflation continuing to rise, and discusses how both parties are complicit in this spiraling economy that will only hurt the American worker.
