It’s Friday, and that means one thing: the week may be over, but the madness is still rolling downhill. A World Gone Mad is back with the Friday Edition — the mix of hard news, sharp commentary, and a trip to News from the Edge of Sanity to lighten the weight before the weekend hits.

This episode kicks off with the kind of headline you can’t ignore — the powerful using power to settle scores. I dig into the latest raid making waves in Washington and why the story isn’t about documents, but about something pettier and more dangerous.

From there, I head south — where a detention facility in the swamp has become a national flashpoint. What it represents goes way beyond barbed wire, and it raises a bigger question about how far politicians will go when they’re chasing headlines and trying to look “tough.”

Then I turn my focus to the economy. Markets are rattling, leaders are talking, and your wallet is caught in the middle. I look at the signals coming out of Jackson Hole and what they could mean for everything from mortgages to grocery bills — and why the spectacle isn’t just about Wall Street.

After that, it’s time for the Friday tradition: News from the Edge of Sanity. The headlines may be heavy, but the sidelines are downright unhinged. Strange cargo spills, bizarre traditions that refuse to die, and public meltdowns that belong more in a comedy sketch than real life.

As always, the absurd lives right next door to the serious — and if you can’t laugh at it, you’ll go mad from it. That’s the balance I bring: news with teeth, and satire with purpose.

The madness isn’t slowing down — and neither am I.
