When Everything Feels Broken (Politics, Money, and Reality) with Sean Mort

Mark and Sean jump into a wide-ranging, unfiltered conversation that starts with the chaos of modern politics and quickly expands into something deeper… how it actually feels to live through it.  

They unpack the nonstop cycle of “what just happened?” moments in today’s news, questioning whether the pace of chaos is accelerating or if we’re just becoming numb to it. The discussion explores power, fear, and why people, from world leaders to everyday workers, often stay silent even when something feels clearly wrong.

From there, the conversation shifts into real-world impact: the aftermath of the Malibu fires, the strange reality of property ownership, and how systems that are supposed to provide stability can feel completely detached from human needs.

The episode also dives into wealth, wages, and the growing divide between workers and executives, highlighting new ideas around income limits, livable wages, and why people so often defend systems that don’t serve them.

It’s part cultural observation, part personal reflection, an honest look at a world that feels increasingly unstable, and the strange ways people try to make sense of it.
