“Happy Hour”: Why Trump Voters Feel Betrayed, Emily’s Social Media Battles, and Halloween’s Dark Side: Emily Answers YOUR Questions

On this week’s edition of “Happy Hour,” Emily Jashinsky explores the spiritual dangers of Halloween and why indulging dark curiosities can have unintended consequences. She returns to the “Cornell 7” controversy, examining the role of race, Title IX standards, and why the case has captured her attention. Emily also responds to disillusioned Trump voters facing backlash, explains the difference between gambling and investing, and considers where the Trump administration might be today without the Iran war. She tackles the importance of confronting democratic socialism without exaggeration, explains the challenges of dynamic podcast advertising, and discusses the behavior of jurors after high-profile trials. Plus, Emily weighs in on foreign interference in elections, gender and race swaps in popular culture, and why she’s increasingly engaging with critics on social media.

Emily’s book recommendations:
