George Hahn, host of *The Week* from ProfG Media and the *Hahn, Solo* live show on Substack, has remained active across his platforms in the fall of 2026. In his weekly *Hahn, Solo* episodes, he has discussed current events, including what he characterized as the Trump administration's actions on press access and mail-in voting, the dismissal of White House press secretary Katie Zachariah, and the cancellation of his planned purchases of new Apple products, which he attributed to the company's decision to use the name "Gulf of America" for the Gulf of Mexico. He has also shared personal recommendations, such as the biography *American Scoundrel* by Kai Bird and Susan Goldmark, and discussed plans to resume live shaving videos on Instagram. On his program *The Week*, Hahn covered financial and political news, including stock market record highs amid high bond yields and oil prices, AI agents and their potential economic impact, the implications of a $40 trillion national debt for bond markets, and the war with Iran. He presented quotes from guests like John Mauldin and Deirdre Bosa, and shared commentary from Scott Galloway on topics like social safety nets and homeownership. In his personal commentary, Hahn called the Trump administration "full of the dumbest" people and described Trump as "the hoax," while also voicing opinions on figures like Megyn Kelly, Pete Hegseth, and Scott Galloway's criticism of the Upper West Side. He frequently promoted his Substack newsletter and encouraged viewers to vote in the upcoming midterm elections.
