April 21, 2020 by GregC

Listen to “AOC’s Awful Oil Response, Kim Dead & Not Dead, Media Cheerleading for Abrams” on Spreaker.

Join Jim and Greg as they slam AOC’s economic lunacy and callously partisan response to Monday’s plummeting oil futures. They also shake their heads as CNN says Kim Jong Un is in grave condition and NBC has him brain dead, while Reuters has him fine just hours later.

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.

Oh man, it’s media day in our year-end Three Martini Lunch awards and Jim and Greg are holding nothing back.  Specifically, they look at the stories the mainstream media covered far too much, the ones they conveniently ignored because they didn’t fit their narrative, and what they saw as the best stories of 2019.

Dems’ Impeachment Ultimatum, Biden’s Bad Energy Gamble, Wine Caves & Selfies

December 20, 2019 by GregC

Listen to “Dems’ Impeachment Ultimatum, Biden’s Bad Energy Gamble, Wine Caves & Selfies” on Spreaker.

It’s finally Friday of a very busy week! Jim and Greg have plenty to say about a member of the House Democratic leadership admitting to CNN that the Democrats may never send the articles of impeachment to the U.S. Senate unless Mitch McConnell agrees to the demands of Democrats for how the trial of President Trump ought to be structured.  They also hammer Joe Biden, who admitted that he’s willing to kill thousands – possibly hundreds of thousands of jobs in the energy sector – because he’s supremely confident the green economy will offer just as many opportunities for great jobs.  And they are the glad the holidays are right around the corner as Thursday’s Democratic presidential debate descends into discussions of wine caves and selfies.

Starting Monday, Jim and Greg will begin their six-episode Three Martini Lunch Awards for 2019.  They each hand out 18 awards in categories ranging from overrated and underrated political figures to rising and fading political figures to the best and worst political ideas of the year, eventually working up to their choices for person of the year.  Enjoy these special episodes and let us know what you think of our choices and share who you would choose!

DeMint Offers Conservative Ideas to Improve America

October 11, 2019 by GregC

Listen to “DeMint Offers Conservative Ideas to Improve America” on Spreaker.

In the second half of our interview with Conservative Partnership Institute Chairman Jim DeMint, the former U.S. senator and co-author of “Conservative: What to Keep,” DeMint explains how conservatives want to help people who are struggling without making them dependent upon government.

He also walks us through a number of conservative policy ideas and innovations to improve our nation, including Education Savings Accounts and converting vehicles to run on natural gas.

Listen to the full podcast as DeMint also tells Greg Corombos why there isn’t much appetite for policy innovation in Congress these days and how people can come together around possible policy solutions in an era when the partisan divide seems wider than ever.

Bernie Promises Tax Hikes, ‘Molecules of Freedom,’ McConnell & the Supremes

May 30, 2019 by GregC

Listen to “Bernie Promises Tax Hikes, ‘Molecules of Freedom,’ McConnell & the Supremes” on Spreaker.

Jim Geraghty of National Review and Greg Corombos of Radio America oppose pretty much every big government plan being pushed by Bernie Sanders but they welcome his honesty that big tax hikes will be required to pay for his agenda. They also cringe as Department of Energy tarnishes a wonderful program to become a more prominent supplier of natural gas to other nations by referring to the gas as “molecules of freedom.” And Jim and Greg discuss Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell’s promise to confirm a Supreme Court nominee if a vacancy opens up in 2020.

‘It’s a Massive Grab for Government’

February 12, 2019 by GregC

Listen to “‘It’s a Massive Grab for Government'” on Spreaker.

Regardless of the shifting contents of the Green New Deal, a former Texas lawmaker and energy policy expert says the agenda would greatly increase the cost of living for Americans and hides the fact that renewable technologies like wind and solar create large amounts of radioactive waste.

“It’s a massive grab for government.  The plans keep changing .  You see papers getting pulled off of websites that reference cow farts.  I’ve said since last year that  the next thing you know they’ll be coming after our food supply.  That’s exactly what was published on a website by Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and then later pulled down.

“This is really just about growing government, taking control from the people and really changing us from a representative republic to a socialist country,” said former Texas State Rep. Jason Isaac, who is now Senior Manager and Distinguished Fellow of Life: Powered at the Texas Public Policy Foundation.

Isaac also says this hardly the time for another New Deal, since the original version from President Franklin D. Roosevelt came at a time of economic peril.

“Now we’re in this economic force, this time frame where record-low unemployment, wages are going up.  Great things are happening in our country so now the last thing we need is a New Deal and certainly not a green one,” said Isaac.

America recently became a net exporter of energy, which Isaac says is raising the standards of living around the world.

“What we’ve seen over the last ten years, as more people get access to energy, we’re seeing poverty decrease.  We’re seeing life expectancy increase.  We’re seeing illiteracy decrease.  We’re seeing wonderful things because more people around the globe are getting access to our energy,” said Isaac.

He also warns that other nations have already traveled down the path towards a green economy.  He cites Germany, where residents see their energy bills tripled and the nation dependent upon Russia for energy.

“Could you imagine paying three times what you’re currently paying for your electric bill.  I couldn’t.  I couldn’t stand for it.  It wouldn’t fit in my budget.  That would be a major impact on Americans, and it would impact the least among us more than anyone,” said Isaac.

While Ocasio-Cortez says a green economy is the wave of the future, Isaac cautions that renewables cannot begin to make up for the energy demand covered by oil, gas, and coal.  In addition, mining for the rare earth elements needed for the renewable industry creates its own environmental problems.

“For every ton of rare earth elements that you get, you produce one ton of radioactive waste.  You just don’t hear about that ever.  So, every time we promote wind and solar, we’re actually promoting radioactive waste,” said Isaac.

Energy Boom vs. Green New Deal

February 8, 2019 by GregC

Listen to “Energy Boom vs. Green New Deal” on Spreaker.

American energy is booming at levels virtually unthinkable a decade ago, but will the good times continue or get derailed by the Green New Deal?

American Petroleum Institute President Mike Sommers explains how the U.S. grew from energy dependence to a net exporter of energy in recent years and who deserves the credit.

He also tells us why the new trade deal with Canada and Mexico could help the energy sector even more and why he believes the Green New Deal is not grounded in reality.
