  • Needs a personnel change

    Jake constantly interrupts his partner with BS rational and Spike is too weak to fight back yet he generally has the more reasoned thoughts.

    The weakest show on this station. Jake is completely light headed on anything of substance or history and importance and only repeats his shallow gripes. Spike O’Neill is a saint to put up with him as a partner and tolerate his passive aggressive disrespect.

    This station used to have intellectually honest, interesting talent regardless of political angle. Jake however is not one of them. Thus, his reliance on others like the Washington Policy Center, Jason Rantz, and Future42 backed grifter Bra... more

    This is one of the weakest shows on this station. Jake is completely light headed on anything of substance or history and importance and only repeats his shallow gripes. Spike O’Neill is a saint to put up with him as a partner but is much better with other hosts. KIRO seems determined to force this Skorheim dude on the listeners but his goofy pseudo moderate frat boy act is useless and the audience deserves better. He neither lives in nor cares about Seattle.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Hour 2: Hot Firefighters
Q: How did Governor Ferguson respond to the signature surge, and what does Walsh say about the governor's stance on taxes?
Walsh notes the governor issued a cautious, politically calculated response amid a rapid signature surge, suggesting the governor is triangulating to appease both taxpayers and legislators, while Walsh criticizes perceived flip-flopping and emphasizes the importance of taxpayer input.
Hour 2: Hot Firefighters
Q: What is the purpose of the initiative to repeal the state income tax, and how is it expected to affect taxpayers?
The initiative aims to repeal the existing millionaire's tax and broad, 1%+ income tax structure, with proponents arguing it would reduce tax burdens on average households and promote economic freedom, while opponents warn of long-term revenue shortfalls and potential cuts to public services.
Hour 3: Hold My Turkey Leg
Q: Todd, why do you think Washington is portrayed as the 'embarrassing' state when it comes to governance?
Todd explains that despite frequent claims of leadership, the state has repeatedly missed climate targets and failed to deliver promised improvements in education, roads, and overall policy outcomes, leading to a credibility gap.
Hour 1: We Have Certain Standards
Q: Tell us about the toll lanes, Chris.
Chris explains the ongoing Washington State Transportation Commission meetings on tolling, specifically rate-setting for express toll lanes, the potential for raising the maximum toll, and considerations like HOV requirements and weekend tolling. He notes the goal of congestion pricing to improve travel times while discussions explore equity and funding needs for the corridor.
Hour 2: No Gotcha Questions
Q: What did Joy Hollingsworth mean by a 'black budget' and how did the hosts interpret it?
The guest and hosts debated whether the term was literal or metaphorical, with some arguing it would be illegal if literal, while others suggested it was a political framing about directing resources to Black communities.
