Today, we're discussing all things Department of Education — what it is, what it does, and what President Trump's executive order dismantling it means for both the department's own future as well as for you and your family. Secretary Linda McMahon is overseeing the downsizing of the department, but don't worry, school lunches, special education programs, and student loans aren't going anywhere. We also talk about soccer superstar Cristiano Ronaldo waiting for a "click" with his longtime girlfriend, Georgina Rodríguez, before he proposes to her. Never mind that they've been together for more than five years. Of course, this is only a symptom of a larger "forever girlfriend" trend we're seeing, and we don't like it. And lastly, we talk about the season finale of the show "Severance" and what it all really means. Share the Arrows 2025 is on October 11 in Dallas, Texas! Go to sharethearrows.com for tickets now!
