## Resource

Is Elon Musk becoming the world’s first trillionaire a sign of American innovation — or a warning sign about the concentration of wealth? Stu and Dave break down the debate surrounding Musk’s growing fortune and what it could mean for the future of business, technology, and politics. Then, it has been 20 years since Al Gore released “An Inconvenient Truth.” Looking back two decades later, how well did the film’s climate predictions hold up? Finally, a lawmaker is caught on a hot mic during a Pride parade, and the unexpected moment is raising eyebrows.
