Pelosi’s Partisan Ploy, Cuomo’s Depressing Forecast, WHO Bows to China

March 23, 2020 by GregC

Listen to “Pelosi’s Partisan Ploy, Cuomo’s Depressing Forecast, WHO Bows to China” on Spreaker.

Good news is scarce once again today, but your Monday martinis dissect three critical stories.  Join Jim and Greg as they slam House Speaker Nancy Pelosi for blowing up Senate progress towards a coronavirus relief bill, making it far less likely that individuals and businesses will have financial assistance in hand when their next rent or mortgage payments are due.  They also cringe as New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo suggests the COVID-19 restrictions may be in place as long as nine months and up to 80 percent of the population will contract the virus anyway.  So is the damage to jobs and businesses worth it if the restrictions won’t stop the virus from spreading?  And Jim unloads on the World Health Organization for accepting China’s coronavirus lies as fact and failing to confront the regime in an effort to make sure the virus was contained.

March 20, 2020 by GregC

Listen to “National Lockdown Coming? Senators Squirm on Investments, Liberty vs. Security” on Spreaker.

It always feels good to make it to Friday, but this week it’s especially welcome.  Join Jim and Greg as they discuss reports that we may be days away from a national lockdown that closes airlines, the markets, and forbids millions from commuting to work. They also groan as a number of U.S. senators face lots of questions after selling off stocks before the market plummeted over coronavirus fears. And as three New Hampshire residents sue Gov. Chris Sununu over his allegedly unconstitutional order banning gatherings of more than 50 people,they discuss the tensions between freedom and safety.

China Exposed, Coronavirus & Criminals, Sanders Stays In

March 18, 2020 by GregC

Listen to “China Exposed, Coronavirus & Criminals, Sanders Stays In” on Spreaker.

Good news is a bit scarce today but the Three Martini Lunch is discussing three big stories. Join Jim and Greg as they document the latest evidence that China covered up the COVID-19 outbreak and refused to admit person-to-person transmission until late January. They also bang their heads on their desks as Philadelphia police make it known they are not going to arrest people for a wide variety of crimes while New York City and other major metropolitan areas look to empty their jails to reduce the risk of the virus spreading. And they wonder why Bernie Sanders continues his presidential when he’s hopelessly behind in the delegate count after another major shellacking on Tuesday.

Vaccine Progress, The Shutdown Debate, Ohio Election Drama

March 17, 2020 by GregC

Listen to “Vaccine Progress, The Shutdown Debate, Ohio Election Drama” on Spreaker.

The home version of the Three Martini Lunch is now up and running but there is always a stool for you! After Jim revels in the news that Tom Brady’s 20-year run with the New England Patriots is over, he and Greg tackle the good, bad, and crazy martinis of the day. First, they welcome the news from Dr. Anthony Fauci that a possible coronavirus vaccine is already in the first stages of testing. They also wonder just how restrictive government officials are going to get as they down society in an effort to confront coronavirus now that San Francisco is ordering residents to shelter in place, groups larger than 10 people are discouraged, and New Jersey is dabbling with curfews. Finally, they weight both sides of the furious political and legal fight in Ohio after Gov. Mike DeWine ordered Tuesday’s primary to be postponed.

Businesses Ordered Closed, Bernie Forces Biden Left, Gillum’s Great Fall

March 16, 2020 by GregC

Listen to “Businesses Ordered Closed, Bernie Forces Biden Left, Gillum’s Great Fall” on Spreaker.

The physical bars and restaurants and being ordered to close in many places but the Three Martini Lunch remains open.  Come in and join us! Today, Jim and Greg react to the CDC urging Americans to avoid gatherings of more than 50 people for the next eight weeks and mayor and governors forcing bars and restaurants to close.  They also discuss the awkwardness of the Biden-Sanders debate in the midst of the coronavirus crisis and highlight how Bernie Sanders and other Democrats have pushed Biden into extreme liberal positions on energy, immigration, guns, abortion and more. And they discuss the stunning political fall of Andrew Gillum, who came less than a percentage point from becoming Florida’s governor in 2018.

Greatness of the Free Market, China’s Ugly Threat, Pelosi’s Partisan Ploy

March 13, 2020 by GregC

Listen to “Greatness of the Free Market, China’s Ugly Threat, Pelosi’s Partisan Ploy” on Spreaker.

As Jim says, this week has been a very long year.  But it is Friday, and while so much is closed, the Three Martini Lunch is open!  Join Jim and Greg as they praise the innovation in the private sector (and at universities) to produce new coronavirus tests that are accurate, can be produced in mass quantities, and can deliver results much more quickly.  They also love the entrepreneurial instinct in a British teenager who sold his classmates squirts of hand sanitizer.  They also unload on communist China for brazen lies like the U.S. military launched the coronavirus in China and for threatening to cut off supplies of much needed medications to the U.S. at our time of need.  And they hammer House Speaker Nancy Pelosi for trying to cram a billion dollars for taxpayer-funded abortions into the coronavirus relief legislation.

What’s Next for the Energy Industry?

March 12, 2020 by GregC

Listen to “What’s Next for the Energy Industry?” on Spreaker.

Coronavirus fears are driving the massive Wall Street sell-off, but turmoil in the oil market is also contributing to the instability. Even with demand falling due to the virus, Saudi Arabia is increasing production in order to drive prices down. Their goal is to drive American energy producers – particularly fracking shale producers out of business.

So how dire is the financial condition for U.S. energy producers and what is the Trump administration considering to help these companies?

American Petroleum Institute President Mike Sommers details what’s on the table and why he doesn’t want any federal interference in the energy market. He also explains what government action would do some good and why the energy industry is built for the long haul.

Trump’s Sloppy Speech, Coronavirus Cancellation Culture, Hanks Hunkers Down

March 12, 2020 by GregC

Listen to “Trump’s Sloppy Speech, Coronavirus Cancellation Culture, Hanks Hunkers Down” on Spreaker.

It’s all-crazy and all coronavirus today on the Three Martini Lunch.  Join Jim and Greg as they go through the three key points from President Trump’s Oval Office address that were not consistent with administration policy and needed later clarification.  They also dive into the rapidly growing list of college and professional sports events being cancelled or radically altered, most prominently the NBA suspending its season after Utah Jazz star Rudy Gobert tests positive for coronavirus.  Finally, they comment on movie star Tom Hanks and wife Rita Wilson testing positive in Australia while feeling slightly under the weather and wonder how much patience Americans will have for a long-term quarantine when many patients don’t feel that crummy and a lot of economic livelihoods are on the line.

Weinstein’s Sentence, Clyburn’s DNC Demand, ‘Betrayed’ By A Bernie Vote

March 11, 2020 by GregC

Listen to “Weinstein’s Sentence, Clyburn’s DNC Demand, ‘Betrayed’ By A Bernie Vote” on Spreaker.

After a brief discussion of the media and the markets and convenient coronavirus excuses, we dive into Wednesday’s Three Martini Lunch. Join Jim and Greg as they are gratified to see convicted rapist and former Hollywood mogul Harvey Weinstein sentenced to 23 years in prison. They also discuss what this episode says about our justice system. They also have different reactions to South Carolina Rep. Jim Clyburn suggesting Joe Biden’s big wins on Tuesday suggest the Democratic National Committee should “shut this primary down” and “cancel the rest of these debates.” And they get a kick out of the writer for “The Atlantic” who feels betrayed because her husband voted for Bernie Sanders for strategic reasons in the California primary while she stuck with Elizabeth Warren.
