  • Not an economist

    Yes, exponential, but relativity matters more. “Hardware” is not “Vaporware”. "what Andy giveth, Bill taketh away."

    Hard to listen too. Starts out with 1min of ads- the most annoying thing in podcasts.

  • Ridiculous amount of ads

    Seriously, the content is ok (good but very superficial analysis) but there are like 6 minutes worth of ads in a 15 minute podcast. Absolutely ridiculous. iHeartPodcasts are the worst at this.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Weekend Listen: Nigel Farage Thinks Britain Has Had Too Many Unifiers
Q: Can I just quickly then understand your instincts on Russia a bit more fully with a few scenarios? So if you were prime minister and Russian jets entered NATO airspace, where do you stand on that?
Got to shoot them down. No questions. Whatever that does, however much that inflames tensions, Russia needs to be taught a lesson.
Weekend Listen: Nigel Farage Thinks Britain Has Had Too Many Unifiers
Q: So tell me, if you were prime minister, would you want ICE-style raids taking place here to deport the 600,000 people in five years that you want to deport?
We will do it our way, not the American way. Our way will involve Border Force doing the job that they would so desperately like to do.
Weekend Listen: Nigel Farage Thinks Britain Has Had Too Many Unifiers
Q: So is that a yes to the question I've asked? You would end alignment with the EU if you were prime minister?
100% plus.
Weekend Listen: Nigel Farage Thinks Britain Has Had Too Many Unifiers
Q: So, if you were prime minister, and I can ask you this question because the way the polls are looking right now. So today, if you became prime minister, would you rip up the treaty, the agreement that Keir Starmer made with the EU earlier this year?
The whole treaty is up for renegotiation anyway. It's a very poor treaty. We can do a lot better than that. We'll have to play hardball.
A Brazen, 7-Minute Jewelry Heist at the Louvre
Q: I'm curious what the next steps are here for the Louvre?
The Louvre needs to reopen after the theft, while also addressing ongoing budget cuts and improving security.
