Davos, Davos...who the f*** is Davos?

What is this “Davos” they speak of? A town… or a billionaire’s clubhouse? (Spoiler: it’s both.)

In this episode of Brenda, You’re on Mute, we lift the lid on the World Economic Forum in Davos — the annual Alpine gathering where CEOs, politicians and the ultra-wealthy meet to “shape the future.”

We break down:

Who actually gets in (and what it costs)

This year’s geopolitical drama and standout speeches

The rise of the “Davos Man” and billionaire influence

Climate pledges, vaccine alliances, and whether any of it really changes lives

The flaming “No Kings” protest on the mountainside 🔥

Is it global cooperation at its best — or elite deal-making dressed up as democracy?

We’re sceptical. We’re curious. We’re definitely not on the guest list.

Listen now — and tell us: if you've had a Davos lanyard, how did you use it?
