RJ May Sentenced, National Verizon Outage & The Epstein Files Need to Return

In this "day that ends in a Y" edition of The All About Nothing podcast, Barrett Gruber and Bill Kimler break down a chaotic 24 hours of news.

The episode opens with the massive Verizon outage that left millions across the U.S. in "SOS mode," sparking a deeper discussion on our total reliance on modern technology and communication infrastructure.

Turning to the South Carolina State House, the hosts discuss the heavy 17.5-year federal prison sentence for RJ May, analyzing the fallout for the Family Caucus and the broader implications of political influence and scandals in the 2026 campaign cycle.

The conversation also revisits the Epstein files and the suspicious lack of media coverage, alongside reflections on Trump’s influence on the current Republican landscape. Finally, the guys touch on public safety concerns regarding recent protests, the ICE situation, and a cultural look at the legacy of the Dilbert comic strip.
