These rituals, though not included in the final podcast recording, are essential for "getting psyched" for the three-hour broadcast. The "Ride of the Valkyries" tradition is jokingly traced back to the propaganda techniques of Joseph Goebbels.

The plan allows the government to cap loan payments at 10% of a graduate's income, which is characterized as lifelong financial enslavement. The shift in terminology from "student" to "borrower" is highlighted as a key psychological tactic.
