    There are not many shows that fit the America first niche while still rooted in intellectual and rational thought. A highly respected show!

  • I listened to these two fucking yokels because they invited a third yokel onto their podcast who's getting a little more attention than he deserves. Vice Presidential candidate JD Vance. Boy I have not heard so much projection in so short a time period than these three. But at least it gave me the insight to finally figure out JD Vance. He's the smartest stupid person around. He can make arguments, but he doesn't realize that his points apply equally to him. Honestly I'm surprised he can breathe... more

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

The Sickness In Our Healthcare System (ft. Katy Talento)
Q: What do you think is the biggest structural flaw in employer-sponsored insurance and how would you fix it?
The key flaw is that employer-sponsored plans are governed by ERISA and not by traditional health agencies, which creates learning gaps for policymakers. A practical fix is enhancing price transparency, enabling direct contracts between employers and providers, and giving patients real price signals so the market can function more like other transparent markets.
The Sickness In Our Healthcare System (ft. Katy Talento)
Q: Tell us a little more about the first-term reform efforts you worked on and what you learned from them.
During the first term, the focus was on price transparency and trying not to boil the ocean in health reform. It became clear that reform needed to be gradual, market-based, and focused on making price and quality information accessible so that patients and employers could make informed decisions.
The Modern Merchant Class (ft. Matthew Haller)
Q: How does the process for becoming a franchisee work?
The process includes applying, meetings with the corporate development team, due diligence, and talking to current/former franchisees to ensure the right cultural and financial fit.
The Modern Merchant Class (ft. Matthew Haller)
Q: What excites you most about franchising, and what makes it unique as a model?
He emphasizes that franchising is about people and community, with brands guided by local operators who leverage national systems, enabling entrepreneurs to own a business without being alone.
The Modern Merchant Class (ft. Matthew Haller)
Q: Who are you? How did you get here? What is IFA? Explain the whole shtick.
Matt describes himself as the president and CEO of the International Franchise Association, a Washington-based trade group representing thousands of franchise brands, franchisees, and suppliers, and explains the core mission and structure of IFA since 1960.
