Trump, Xi and a Tesla Semi lift PBD Podcast #863 off the line
A two-hour Home Team episode that runs from Taiwan to Teddy Swims is moving faster on its own than the whole channel usually does in a day.
Why this story? The video opened at a pace of 553,534 views a day, 59 times a normal first day on this channel (9,386).
Trump-Xi Strike New Deal, Midterm Warning Signs & Tesla Semi Finally Arrives | PBD Podcast #863
Episode #863 of the PBD Podcast is barely a day old and already close to three hundred thousand views. That is nearly sixty times the pace a new episode here usually starts at. On its own, the video is also moving faster than Patrick Bet-David's entire channel normally does across everything it has posted.
It is one of the live Home Team shows the channel runs on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays from the Valuetainment studio in Fort Lauderdale, and the first hour is heavy news. Bet-David and his panel start with the new Trump-Xi deals between the U.S. and China, a chapter the timestamps label "panda diplomacy," then move to Taiwan, Iran and the warning signs ahead of the 2026 midterms. Tesla's Semi, first shown back in 2017, gets its own segment, followed by a look at diesel costs in trucking.
The back half loosens up. There is Jamie Dimon on leadership, a wild college football weekend, a Messi goal, Teddy Swims surprising a street performer, and Max Verstappen talking about family and life beyond Formula 1. The episode closes with a preview of an interview with Bob Chapek, the former Disney chief executive.
