I think we're going to lose the Georgia runoff again if Trump continues with these antics.View on YouTube
The prediction is conditional: Republicans will lose the 2022 Georgia Senate runoff if Trump continues his post‑2020-election style antics.

Outcome of the runoff: In the December 6, 2022 Georgia Senate runoff between Raphael Warnock and Herschel Walker, Warnock (Democrat) defeated Walker (Republican), 51.4% to 48.6%. Republicans therefore did lose the runoff. (en.wikipedia.org)

Trump’s continued “antics”: Trump had heavily tied himself to 2020-election grievances and confrontational public behavior throughout 2021–2022. He formally announced his 2024 presidential campaign on November 15, 2022, just days after this podcast, continuing to center his public persona on the same election-fraud narrative and polarizing style that followed the 2020 election, as documented in subsequent investigations and reports on his sustained effort to overturn or relitigate 2020. (reuters.com) These sources show that his post‑2020 behavior (claims of a stolen election, efforts to overturn results, inflammatory rhetoric) was not moderated but persisted into and beyond the runoff period.
Given that (a) Trump did in fact continue the same kind of behavior the speaker is referring to, and (b) under that condition the GOP did lose the Georgia runoff, the conditional prediction — “we’re going to lose the Georgia runoff again if Trump continues with these antics” — matches the observed outcome. The causal attribution can’t be proven, but the conditional forecast of the result under that scenario was borne out.
Therefore, the prediction is best scored as right.
