S5E4: Government Shutdown - Day 43 - The Horrible Two-bit Nonsensical Shut down is over, Now what?

Better Moody: The Way Forward

With a Little bit of doggy input. And a Dash of K-Pop Demon Hunter vibes, I discuss one of The longest government shutdowns in U.S. history. Its finally over.

In this episode, I break down the 43-day shutdown in simple terms — what actually happened, who was affected, why travel and federal services slowed down, and what we can expect moving forward now that the government has reopened.

We talk TSA delays, passport slowdowns, federal workers going weeks without pay, national park closures, and the ripple effects still coming even after the bill was signed late Wednesday night at the White House.

If you’ve been wondering how a shutdown impacts everyday people — and why it cost the economy billions — this episode gives you the full, clear, human explanation.

What does a 43-day shutdown really mean for all of us now?

We get into it. Follow if you like. Drop a comment if you want because I'm listening:)
