SNAP Shutdown: The Truth They’re Not Telling You About Reapplying for Benefits
In this episode, Tez breaks down the shocking reality behind the government’s SNAP overhaul — from the 186,000 dead people allegedly still receiving benefits to the massive reapplication process that could push millions of living families into crisis.
But this isn’t just politics — it’s personal. Tez opens up about growing up on food stamps, how the recent shutdown hit real households, and why something that looks “simple” on paper can become catastrophic in real life.
We dig into the economics, the human stories, and a smarter solution that could save money and protect families: hiring a specialized high-efficiency team rather than forcing the entire country to reapply.
This episode is real, unfiltered, and eye-opening — shining a light on how policy trickles down into people’s refrigerators, mental health, and dignity.
Sit back, relax, and join the conversation… because it’s happening.
