  • Episode 37: Eat the Rich or Become Them? Is There Such a Thing as an Ethical Billionaire
    Jan 19 2026

    This week on Breaking ViewZ, we’re unpacking one of the most polarizing questions of our time: should we be eating the rich or trying to become them? We break down California’s proposed billionaire wealth tax, Beyoncé officially joining the billionaire club, and the growing backlash against extreme wealth in an era where so many people are struggling to get by. From Silicon Valley panic to cultural debates about who “deserves” their money, we explore why billionaires have become public enemy number one.

    We zoom out to look at the deeper issue behind all of it: class. In a system where wealth inequality keeps widening, is the real tension political or economic? We’re talking billionaires, public resentment toward opulence (especially in politics), and whether building massive wealth is inherently exploitative. From MacKenzie Scott and Patagonia’s Yvon Chouinard to the Giving Pledge and historical figures like Andrew Carnegie, we debate whether extreme wealth can coexist with genuine social good, and what responsibility, if any, comes with having it. As always, we want to hear from you: is the system broken beyond repair, or do you play the game and try to win?

  • Episode 36: ICE, Passports, and the Rise of America’s “Secret Police”
    Jan 12 2026

    This week on Breaking ViewZ, we’re diving into one of the most alarming trends happening in the U.S. right now: the rapid expansion of ICE and what it means for basic civil rights. From U.S. passport holders suddenly being flagged as “lost or stolen,” to trans Americans being wiped from federal systems, to U.S. citizens being detained and killed by immigration enforcement, we’re breaking down why so many experts are comparing today’s America to 1930s fascist regimes.

    We walk through the latest headlines, explain how these systems are actually being used, and connect the dots between surveillance, detention, and the growing effort to strip people of their legal identity. This isn’t just about immigration. It’s about who gets to exist in America with rights, and who doesn’t.

    This Week’s Headlines:

    02:43 U.S. Passports Being Reported Stolen

    06:08 U.S. Passports Cancelled

    11:14 U.S. Citizens Targeted by ICE

    14:06 Denaturalization Efforts

    18:22 ICE Killing Americans

  • Episode 35: U.S. vs Venezuela, Nigeria, and the World: Is the U.S. in its Villain Era?
    Jan 5 2026

    This week on Breaking ViewZ, we’re zooming out to ask a big question: is the U.S. fully in its villain era? From sweeping travel bans targeting over thirty countries, to U.S. airstrikes in Nigeria, escalating tensions with Iran, and a dramatic raid in Venezuela, we’re breaking down how recent foreign policy moves are reshaping America’s role on the global stage. We unpack what’s really driving these decisions, how much of this is new versus the same old U.S. playbook, and why it matters for Gen Z—from global instability and migration crises to what it means to carry an American passport right now.

    02:59 U.S. Travel Bans

    06:21 Christmas Day Bombings in Nigeria
