If You Can’t Beat Them, Nuke Them
August 4, 2016
Lou Michels and The Chief kick off the show to talk our potential president. What exactly will he or she do in the Middle East if elected? What did Bush do in the Middle East? Thrilling way to start a Thursday.
Kenny Polcari joins us for a rare Thursday appearance to talk markets and world money before Lou and The Chief talk briefly about Donald Trump’s comments about why he can’t just use nukes. Seriously…he said that.
We touch on the success of the Cubs and the skidding of the White Sox before rounding out the show by asking the question – “What will Donnie Trump do in the next couple months?”
Gotta Catch Em’ All
July 21, 2016
The Chief and Lou Michels kick off the show to try and dissect the ‘debacle’ that is the Republican National Convention – mainly Ted Cruz’s speech and his getting booed off the stage. They talk a bit about the electoral college vote and spend time harassing Nick for being a millennial. (It’s not his fault, guys.)
Lou and Chief talk some Turkey before inviting John Guidos, COO and co-founder of TurboAppeal on the show to dissect the new company aimed, “To help homeowners lower tax bills, reduce fees and simplify the property tax appeals process.”
We round out the show by talking about Russia’s Olympic team, mainly their possible ban from this year’s Summer Olympics- and of course some predictions on Donald Trump’s RNC speech, tonight.
Hovering Helicopter Money
July 14, 2016
The Chief and Lou Michels kick off the show with a discussion about social security. Spoiler alert : They don’t agree.
Next they touch on the national work force participation rate – this time they both bring statistics to back up their views…and they still don’t agree!
The Chief comes prepared to today’s show with a bag full of questions for Lou regarding everything from basic unions to collectively bargained agreements in the NFL.
They finally find common ground when talking about the status of our economy and inflation.
Stocks and Jocks : The Body Issue
July 7, 2016
Happy Thursday! The Chief kicks off the show by picking Lou Michels’s legal brain regarding the FBI recommending AGAINST the indictment of Hillary Clinton. We have a small debate over the Chicago Bulls’ signing of Dwyane Wade. Then, Chief and Lou discuss where, and more importantly, why the Department of Justice sends resources to certain places. We touch on ‘age-ism’ in the work place as Chief defends the use of his ancient flip phone. Finally, Michels and The Chief round out the show with an update on Brexit along with the continual rise of Donald Trump as a Presidential candidate.
Us Against Them
June 30, 2016
The Chief and Lou Michels kick off the show in studio. They start with the question – where is trading going? Do traders have a chance? Lou Michels absolutely scoffs at the behavior of the Clintons. More importantly – how they aren’t arrested.
Lou Michels explains the recent Istanbul airport attack and explains the country’s reactions to this deadly bombing.
We discuss who we would WANT to see in office as president and why.
Finally – we touch base on the 2016 summer Olympics and what is wrong with the Olympic trials today.
