No Tacos For Tyrants

My Father Fled The Soviets For The American Dream That Trump's Attacking

Matt Mihaly Episode 19

In this deeply personal episode, Matt pays tribute to his late father Arpad Mihaly — a Hungarian revolutionary, immigrant, and entrepreneur. Matt traces his father's journey from war-torn Transylvania to Canadian gold mines, eventually arriving in the United States where he built a life defined by relentless work ethic and improbable success, though it's a life that ended recently after years of sad decline.

But it wouldn’t be No Tacos For Tyrants without a few well-aimed Molotovs! After honoring his dad, Matt tears into Trump’s administration, including national security leaks and Jerome Powell-firing fantasies and celebrates Elon's announcement today that he'd be dialing back his work in the government some.
