🎙️ Fkin New Guy Podcast | Tax Dollars, Idols & Nostalgia — The Truth They Don’t Talk About

In this episode of the Fkin New Guy Podcast**, we break down the wild ways your tax dollars are being spent overseas — including millions for circumcisions and vasectomies in Zambia, electric buses in Rwanda, and even pastry classes in Haiti. All while people here still struggling.

We also dive into why idolizing celebrities will always backfire — because at the end of the day, they’re just people like the rest of us. And to lighten the mood, we wrap it all up with a throwback to those classic TV commercials and jingles we’ll never forget — from “Every kiss begins with K” to “What would you do for a Klondike bar?”

💬 Topics Covered:

  • 💸 The Biden administration’s questionable foreign spending
  • 🚍 $500K for electric buses in Rwanda
  • 🍰 Millions for pastry classes and dance groups in Haiti
  • 🧠 Why idol culture is toxic and fans go too far
  • 📺 Classic commercials that defined a generation

🎧 Key Moments:

  • 49:05 — The $3M circumcision & vasectomy funding in Zambia
  • 49:48 — Pastry classes and “dance focus groups” in Haiti
  • 01:55 — “Never meet your idols” — why fans need boundaries
  • 29:47 — Nostalgic ad throwback: “Every kiss begins with K”

The Vibe: Raw. Real. Unfiltered. We question what we’re told, laugh at what’s wild, and think for ourselves — because somebody has to.
