Podcast 179

Updates on all the big stories. Thanks for all the emails and comments about Podcast 178, outlining the very latest facts on the MH-17 story. This is one of the things podcasting allows us to do very well. Updates for the week continue with the latest on the MH-17 story. Allegations about MH-17 swirl while the President eats hamburgers and hits the hustings to raise money. What do we know about this story and what is conjecture? What can the US do, and what IS the president doing? What about Europe? Meanwhile the crash site in the Ukraine is under the control of ‘Drunken Separatists’ (which sounds like a band name). Actor James Garner of ‘The Rockford Files’ fame is dead at 86. The upper midwest is under a heat advisory, which means heat and humidity and uncomfortable Minnesotans. Think there’s no inflation? Why are two pairs of jeans that used to be 40 dollars suddenly 130 dollars! Sponsored by X Government Cars!

The Bob Davis Podcast

Podcast 176

Midweek updates on the big stories. What is Obama’s end game with immigration? The Highway Trust Fund will hit empty in August, unless Congress ‘does something’. How about passing a law that says one hundred percent of the money in the Trust Fund has to be used for highways, not trains, buses, bike trails and ‘affordable’ housing along LRT lines…and not to prop up bankrupt transit departments. Think the President will sign that? Compare how two different news services come away with two completely different stories out of the same economic news. Farmers have already lost millions of dollars on grain from 2013 that hasn’t been shipped. Why? Because Warren Buffett’s trains are hauling oil rather than grain. This is why we wanted the Keystone Pipeline built. Oh yeah, Warren is good friends with President Obama. Weird, huh? What happens when someone tries to cancel their Comcast service? In this podcast a short clip of a bitchy customer ‘service’ rep, but the whole debacle went on for 45 minutes. Want to know what’s wrong with America? This is a start. And, thanks for your patience as we upgrade to new software, with associated learning curve struggles. Sponsored by X Government Cars.

PODCAST 163

The Situation In Iraq. As things in Iraq deteriorate former Vice President Dick Cheney throws a zinger at President Obama. Are we now back in a bi-polar ‘Bush Was Wrong-It’s Not Obama’s Fault’ discussion? What should people who advocated for the war in Iraq (including lawmakers who voted to authorize it) say? President Obama as been in office almost 6 years, and has had time to arrange things in Iraq to his liking. How’s that working out? What is Obama responsible for? Is it his policy that leads to chaos enveloping the whole region? What impact did 9-11 have on talk radio and the way we talk about these issues? A late night walk-and-talk brings up some thoughts about all these subjects. And a critique of the remake of the 1967 Classic ‘Bonnie and Clyde’. Sponsored by Baklund R & D.
