Bubba kicks off the hour with raw studio banter and a fresh round of Bubba Army fundraising, shouting out PayPal, Venmo, and Cash App while breaking Dan’s balls over a jaw-dropping $70,000 spend that’s still stressing everyone out. The crew pivots into New York politics, tearing into the new mayor’s inauguration, wondering how a city of roughly 8.2–8.3 million people ends up with about a million votes deciding the race, and parsing the oath of office for Zoran Kwame as a symbol of where the city’s headed. They chew on what his win says about the Democratic Party’s tug-of-war between moderates and the far-left, then close by comparing their own donation grind to a PBS-style pledge drive, with a tongue-in-cheek nod to a reported $199,000 haul for PBS News.
