Guests: Lou Michels
The Donnie Trump Tipping Point
September 22, 2016
The Chief and Lou Michels kick off the show by continuing the dialogue about the Epipen situation. How much does it really cost? How does it cost this much?? Can we come up with an alternative on the air?
Then they touch on the massive protests and looting sprees that have really boiled over in the last couple of nights.
Lou Michels gives Trump credit where credit is due – even if it’s for the wrong reasons. The Chief recaps trading the day before after the Fed decision and the Bank of Japan’s decision.
We round out the show by talking about non-compete clauses. At what point is it a trade hindering agreement?
Disappearing Pensions, Multiplying Price-Hikes
September 15, 2016
The Chief and Lou Michels are live in studio to kick off this wonderful Thursday morning by starting a discussion on Chicago politics and teachers’ disappearing pensions. What needs to change? Who needs to leave? What a nice way to kick off the day, right?
The Chief and Lou Michels are both confused about the Wells-Fargo fraud situation. I think it’s going to stay that way. Next they talk about how the poor continue to get poorer as taxes go up. They touch on the rising prices of service based industries like restaurants. Where is the price hike coming from?
Lou gives us a military weaponry lesson before rounding out the show.
Regulatory Blues
September 8, 2016
Lou Michels is in-studio breaking down the Colin Kaepernick situation from an employment perspective. He and the Chief also discuss $CMG, conspiracy theorists and the overwhelming failures within government regulation.
Chief Loves Taxes
September 1, 2016
The Chief and Lou Michels kick off the show with a discussion on taxes. Are we paying too much? How can we fix it? What taxes need to be eliminated? Who needs to pay more? Where exactly are these lenient tax codes coming from that help these huge companies get these tax breaks? Lou. is. heated.
We talk about new weapons in today’s arsenal – and which ones does America already have? Which ones do we need? Chief gets mad about Chicago city stickers and we touch on minimum wage before rounding out the show with a reminiscing session regarding the abacus and a slide rule. No, really.
Allergic to Policy
August 25, 2016
The Chief kicks off the show by asking Lou Michels – “What would it take for you to adopt an all cash money system again?”
They discuss everything from the newly minted Guaranteed Rate Field to what would happen in Chicago if there was an extreme earthquake to Chief’s round of golf yesterday.
We ask the question – what are hardcore Trump voters actually voting for? Policy, ideals, or hate?
Just how corrupt is this epipen price hike? How deep does it go? We finish off the show with a heated debate about competitiveness across different industries before Chief challenges Lou to a real discussion about foreign policy on next week’s show.
