In this scintillating episode of The Banter Roundtable Podcast, we talk Elon Musk’s takeover of Twitter and the subsequent explosion of trolls. What does the future hold for the Twitterverse? Also, is Kanye the new face of anti-semitism after refusing (again) to apologize? Also, can Herschel Walker really win? The Polls are tied and Chuck Schumer is worried. What does this say about America? We talk the ludicrous John Fetterman hypocrisy and interrupt the schedule to discuss Paul Pelosi’s terrible ordeal.

For Banter Members: “Not A Real Minority”
Given the huge spike in antisemitism and astonishing statistic that half of Americans don’t know 6 million Jews were killed in the Holocaust, Justin and Ben talk what it means to be Jewish in America today.

Ben also reveals the threats he has received over the years, and a what some of his family members have been subjected to. This is an incredibly important topic and we’d love to hear from members on their own experiences of racism/antisemitism/discrimination.
