🇺🇸 Are There Too Many Holidays in the USA? Or Not Enough? | Karel Cast Ep. 25-91 🇺🇸 Are There Too Many Holidays in the USA? Or Not Enough? | Karel Cast Ep. 25-91 Donald Trump recently said there are “too many holidays” in the U.S. and they’re bad for the economy. But let’s get real—this from a guy who’s spent millions golfing. The truth? Americans take fewer holidays than almost any other developed country. Why don’t we value rest, mental health, and time off like other nations do? Is it rising costs? Hotel rates, food prices, even parking fees (👀 $100 in Lake Tahoe!) are pushing vacations out of reach for many. 🎆 As the 4th of July approaches, Karel asks: Do you have the time, money, and energy to celebrate? Or are holidays now just another burden? Plus, he shares a delicious Raspberry Salad recipe perfect for any BBQ! 💥 Uncensored. Unfiltered. Unhinged.
