Kat is a prolific writer, having worked as a columnist for National Review for nearly six years. She’s also worked at Campus Reform, The Washington Times, Barstool Sports, and of course, Boston Market. She’s no stranger to the stage, either: The national tour of her comedy live show, “You Can’t Joke About That LIVE,” sold out in theaters all around the country.
Kat stands out in a sea of pundits because of her libertarian perspective and use of comedy and satire to get her no-nonsense points across – even landing her on Variety’s New Power of New York list in 2023. While she is steadfast in her strong libertarian beliefs, Kat is a firm believer in the power of conversations to bridge gaps, political or otherwise. Kat loves connecting with people across the country and around the world and talking about the things that are on everyone’s minds, but no one's lips. And she is sure to do so with a great deal of respect and humor.
She currently lives in New York City with her husband Cam, their dog Carl, and her cat Cheens.
Jimmy reflects on how the show captures life within the "Utah bubble" and discusses its portrayal of social media fame and cultural pressures, especially around judgment and sexual shame. He mentions a memorable scene where some women are excluded from a baby blessing for being less "spiritual," highlighting how judgmental attitudes still persist. Another scene involves controversy around a sex toy sponsorship, capturing the deep-seated sexual shame within the community.
When Travis asks what message Jimmy would share with young viewers idolizing fame, Jimmy warns against seeking fame for fame’s sake. He emphasizes the importance of meaningful impact, sharing a story about how his book helped someone transform their life. The clip ends with a reminder to be cautious about the pursuit of fame and relationships, encouraging a focus on authenticity and substance.

Grant didn't rely on luck, inheritance, or even traditional methods. Instead, he focused on his greatest asset: attention. Learn how Grant used social media, unconventional fundraising, and sheer visibility to capture the trust of millions, eventually raising capital from everyday investors—sometimes with investments as small as $500. Travis highlights how Grant's approach shifted the way we think about building an empire, showing that success isn't just about being liked—it's about being known.
He also praises Barbarian, a recent psychological horror that surprised him. Starring Justin Long, the film follows a woman who finds more than she bargained for after booking an Airbnb. Joe loved how it kept him guessing with unexpected twists and a perfect blend of tension and terror.
And if you’re in the mood for laughs, Joe shares a story about when his family’s costume choices definitely took things in some surprising directions.
Kat and Travis explore how sticking to your principles rather than party lines can leave you feeling isolated—but it also opens the door for meaningful connections with people from all walks of life. They tackle the dangers of binary thinking, the importance of free speech, and why critical thinking matters more than ever.
If you're interested in hearing a balanced perspective from someone who doesn’t fit neatly into political boxes, this is the conversation for you!
