Summary

Steve Scaffidi opens the show by announcing he’s taking a break from social media platform X, sparking a broader conversation about online burnout and the value of disconnecting. He also reacts to Congressman Thomas Massie losing his Republican primary and what it says about the future of the GOP under President Trump’s influence. Later, Chef Michael Feker and Capri Communities’ Kim Irwin join to preview the upcoming Active Aging Symposium, and the show honors Salute to Service recipient Noah Curtis, alongside his mentor and family, for his work in emergency response.
