The Real Winner of the Biden-Putin Cage Match Over Ukraine Jan 31, 2022

Show notes

As we watch in real time the crisis between Ukraine and Russia play out, the media and people following the situation continue to ask if Putin's Russia will invade Ukraine. But regardless of an invasion, we need to realize that this crisis is happening because of President Biden’s weakness on the world stage. This episode talks about the delicate situation, the state of play, and how U.S. foreign policy should be driven by one priority above all others—the safety, security, and well-being of Americans and our interests.

Inflation Recap Dec 27, 2021

Show notes

John Popp (audio engineer extraordinaire) and Tim are in the office, even though it's that awkward time between Christmas and New Years. It's quiet, for sure. Because we are all feeling inflation in the pocketbook, and now the term "stagflation" is being thrown around, we decided it'd be a good idea to re run the conversation Tim had with Joel Griffith earlier this year explaining inflation. This is a great primer, and sets us up perfectly for next episode when Joel will be back with Tim to tackle "stagflation."
