It is election week in the US, so I thought we should get some feedback from a local this week. Natalie is well-embedded in the political quagmire as a well-followed Twitter influencer, tweeting about liberty and freedom. One of Elon's favourite libertarians, she even got Javier Milei to retweet a photo from the conference this year. Well done, Nat! We recorded this conversation a few days before the election, so we didn't know the result. However, as you'll hear, Natalie was pretty confident that Trump would win through. This is a very informal chat touching on money, politics, social media, and freedom in general. Enjoy the conversation.
