Podcasts about affordability

August 26, 2026, 4pm; GOP strategists pitched a political blueprint to Donald Trump that would center on local issues, individual races and individual candidates -- it might not surprise you to learn that Trump rejected that strategy.

Hugh Hallman, Attorney, Educator, and former Mayor of Tempe, joins Seth in studio for the full hour to talk about The affordability crisis that exists in this country as a result of the Biden Administration’s mishandling of the national economy. One of the key points discussed is how the Left has been using the narrative of an "affordability crisis" to push their agenda, when in reality, the prices of goods and services have been rising due to the previous Biden Administration's policies. Hugh and Seth discuss how the Left has been downplaying the accomplishments of the Trump Administration, such as securing the border and appointing conservative judges, and instead focusing on the perceived failures of the Biden Administration. They also talk about how the Democratic Socialists of America (DSA) have taken over the Democratic Party, replacing the old with new, more extreme ideologies.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

In Part Three of his "How to Win 2026" series, Newt Gingrich tackles the two hardest arguments in the entire 2026 campaign: the economy and Iran. On affordability, Newt makes the Republican case with specific facts and dollar figures: the steepest drop in prescription drug prices in sixty years, GLP-1 medications now available for $149 a month through TrumpRx, $82 billion in individual tax relief claimed in a single filing season, and concrete steps already underway on housing, energy, and regulation. On Iran, Newt is equally direct — the war has not gone as planned, the Iranian regime has proven more determined than expected, and there is no easy exit. But backing down, he argues, means gambling that a regime chanting "death to America" won't eventually make good on it.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Since 1911, Californians have been allowed a direct role in legislation via the initiative and referendum process. This year's November ballot features 14 measures, including the Billionaire Wealth Tax, two “affordability” programs that will make housing more expensive, and a bid to make the nation's highest marginal income-tax rate a permanent impediment to prosperity.  Bonus!

In this Econ 101 segment on the 9innings Podcast, we explore America's growing “payment economy,” where consumers increasingly focus on the monthly payment rather than the total price.From longer-term financing and Buy Now, Pay Later services to the ever-growing subscription economy, we examine how breaking purchases into smaller payments can create the illusion of affordability without actually reducing the cost.We also look at how credit-driven consumption can mask vulnerabilities in the economy, keep demand, and potentially prices elevated, while putting additional pressure on household finances.The takeaway is simple: Stop asking whether you can afford the payment and start asking what the purchase actually costs. Because true affordability isn't about making the monthly payment, it's about understanding the total cost.00:00 — Welcome to the Payment Economy 05:30 — The Illusion of Affordability 09:16 — The Trillion-Dollar Credit Economy NEWSLETTER (WHAT NOW): https://substack.com/@9icapital?r=2ei...

Political strategist and pollster Chris Wilson joins Lisa Boothe to break down the state of the 2026 midterm elections, the Republican Party's turnout problem, the Democratic Party's move to the left and why traditional political polling is becoming increasingly difficult to trust. Wilson, CEO of Eyes Over Technologies, explains why Republicans are facing a challenging but highly competitive midterm environment. While history favors Democrats and Republican voter intensity remains a concern, the GOP could benefit from the Senate map, redistricting and Democratic candidates who may be too far left for their states. So what should Republicans actually campaign on? Wilson argues that the winning message comes down to four words: affordability, security, trust and confidence. He explains why candidates should focus on the cost of groceries and everyday life, public safety, competent government and delivering tangible results for voters rather than relying on generic attacks about socialism. Lisa and Chris also examine critical Senate races in Michigan, Alaska, North Carolina, Ohio and elsewhere, along with the challenge of getting lower-propensity Trump voters back to the polls when Donald Trump himself isn't on the ballot. Then they tackle one of the biggest questions in modern politics: Can we still trust the polls? Wilson explains how declining response rates, inaccurate turnout models, early voting and rapidly changing public opinion are making traditional polling increasingly complicated. Finally, Wilson explains how artificial intelligence, online conversation analysis and real-time narrative tracking could transform political campaigns by showing not just where voters stand today, but where public opinion is moving heading into Election Day.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Rep. Kevin Fitzpatrick (R) and Rep. Thomas Suozzi (D) lead one of Washington's only bipartisan caucuses, the Problem Solvers Caucus, and they've teamed up on an affordability agenda that touches housing, energy, health care, and immigration. Ryan Bourne walks through where their plan overlaps with Cato's own affordability handbook, and where free market and interventionist solutions still diverge. Hosted on Acast.

These are candidates who won Democratic primaries. Eight or ten of them now, several against sitting incumbents. Angie Nixon is running the same play everywhere it works: populism and affordability, gas and groceries and rent and utility bills. Hawk's read is that elected Democrats spent fifteen or twenty years answering to donors, AIPAC, and the DNC instead of their own voters, and this is what that produces. Hasan Piker, who Moskowitz named directly, responded by suggesting he log off and focus on beating the Republican. Hawk lays out Moskowitz's actual record on Israel and Iran, including opposing conditions on military aid and dismissing a war powers resolution. And then the part nobody wants to hold at once: Moskowitz is still the only Democrat likely to win a Trump plus nine seat, and Democrats need the House.

Progressive Democrats made a surprising splash in Florida's Senate primary as state Rep. Angie Nixon beat Alex Vindman, setting up a tough general election against GOP Sen. Ashley Moody and signaling possible left-wing momentum in President Trump's home state. We will look at election results from Alaska as well, where Democrats think they may have a road to the Senate.  In Wyoming, Megan Degenfelder becomes the 5th Trump-backed gubernatorial candidate to lose a primary this election cycle.  It seems that having Trump's support isn't the key to winning anymore. Guests today include John Rothmann.  He is the host of the podcast "Around the Political World with John Rothmann" and a former KGO Radio host.  Belinda Waymouth joins us to talk about the environment.

In this episode of An Educated Guest, host Todd Zipper sits down with Justin Draeger, Senior Vice President of Affordability at the Strada Education Foundation and former President & CEO of NASFAA. Drawing on decades of experience at the center of federal financial aid policy, Justin offers a nuanced, insider perspective on the real drivers behind the $1.7 trillion national student debt burden, the erosion of public trust in higher education, and why fixing affordability requires looking far beyond top-line sticker prices.Together, Todd and Justin explore how postsecondary institutions can restore confidence by focusing on true value and workforce alignment. They dive deep into Strada's research on what makes a credential "worth having," the hidden costs associated with time to completion, the transformative impact of paid work-based learning, and how innovative models like Direct Admissions are removing traditional friction points for first-generation and low-income students.Finally, Justin shares his perspective on the future of federal policy, state-level governance, and non-degree credentials in a rapidly changing economy. Despite current headwinds and skepticism, Justin outlines a compelling vision for how higher education can fulfill its promise as the primary engine of social mobility and the American Dream.

Encore Episode. There are hardly any governments in the world right now who aren't faced with an "affordability" crisis. Voters want action but what action is even possible?

Matt Ross feels at home in the ocean, on his surfboard. Strong currents, choppy conditions, and the occasional thrashing are all part of the experience — and the joy of a good, long wave makes it all worth it. So when a job pulled him too far from his favorite surf spots in San Francisco, he wasn't happy. He knew he needed to find his next work challenge closer to home. He found that at GridX, where for the past seven years he's brought his interest in data analytics and design to product roles, working toward his current role as vice president of delivery.  This week on With Great Power, Matt dives into the economics behind rising rates – and why he thinks that without affordable energy, the clean energy transition will stall. He shares some of his recent projects, designing and implementing time-varying rates with utilities. And he describes the ways that data centers could actually turn load growth into an opportunity to drive rates down.  Credits: Hosted by Brad Langley. Produced by Mary Catherine O'Connor.

Frontline healthcare workers and the patients they serve are facing a major crisis at the University of Vermont Health network—the state's leading healthcare provider. “In June, UVM Health eliminated over 140 positions across its network, a third of which were union positions,” Matt More reports at The Rake Vermont. “The cuts, which the hospital estimated will save $9.5 million, comes as the network faces a $300 million budget shortfall… Later that month, UVM Health handed down a speed-up order to its Medical Group, which includes outpatient clinics and more than 1,000 physicians, which practitioners say will result in briefer appointments with patients.”How did Vermont's flagship health network end up in this crisis? How is it affecting healthcare workers and their patients? And what can be done to fix it? In this episode of Working People, we speak with Melissa Lavallee, secretary of UVMMC Support Staff United and VP of healthcare for AFT-Vermont; and Teagan Cook, lead outpatient chemotherapy scheduler at her hospital and a chief steward in UVMMC Support Staff United.Additional links/info: UVMMC Support Staff United website, Facebook page, and InstagramAFT-Vermont website, Facebook page, and InstagramMatt Moore, The Rake Vermont, “UVM Health's unions fight hospital cuts to protect their patients' healthcare and their working conditions”Town Meeting TV, “Put workers and patients first! - Solidarity town hall meeting with UVM Medical Center unions”Olivia Gieger, VT Digger, “UVM Health cuts 142 jobs — an estimated $9.5 million in staff positions”Featured Music: Jules Taylor, Working People Theme SongCredits: Audio Post-Production: Jules TaylorBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-real-news-podcast--2952221/support.Help us continue producing radically independent news and in-depth analysis by following us and becoming a monthly sustainer.Follow us on:Bluesky: @therealnews.comFacebook: The Real News NetworkTwitter: @TheRealNewsYouTube: @therealnewsInstagram: @therealnewsnetworkBecome a member and join the Supporters Club for The Real News Podcast today!

Pair that with Jon Stewart's interview of John Fetterman, where Stewart calmly walked him to the admission that support for Israel is the line. Agreement on nearly everything else does not matter if a Democrat breaks on that one. Meanwhile Zohran Mamdani ran on affordability and taxing the rich and won. That is the pattern across these races, and it keeps getting explained as anything other than candidates listening to voters. Then Wisconsin. Francesca Hong lost a very close primary to David Crowley, who would be the first Black governor in the state's history. Hawk's frustration is with the response already appearing in comments, that the winner now has to earn a vote in November. The primary was that. Whoever the nominee is, the alternative in Wisconsin and in Texas is the Republican.

Meanwhile his campaign against James Talarico runs almost entirely on ads about medical transition and children, while he trails in the polling. Second, Michigan Republican Lisa McClain went on Fox and attributed a claim about COVID vaccines and first trimester miscarriage rates to the New England Journal of Medicine. The journal published no such finding. Third, Fox host Sandra Smith cannot work out why Democrats are winning on affordability, an issue Donald Trump ran on in 2024 and now calls a hoax. Hawk's answer is that DSA backed candidates campaign on it and voters respond, and that the segment's fallback to blaming Joe Biden is doing a lot of work eighteen months in.

He also explains the limits of the available tax data and why it cannot tell us whether props, uniforms, staff, or touring are specifically driving the increase.IN THIS QUICK SIP• Why Jeff started studying drum corps finances• Spending and competitive placement• Rising costs and a shorter DCI tour• Corps with outside revenue engines vs. corps depending more heavily on dues and reserves• Affordability and socioeconomic barriers for performers• Standardized financial reporting and DCI governance• A possible premier/elite-class model• Four reasons the sustainability issue is difficult to addressFEATUREDTrish O'Shea — @trishdish1102Ricardo Robinson-Shinall — @ricardorrobinsonJeff Gill — Instagram @jeff.sfo | Facebook jeff.gill.sfoREAD JEFF'S ANALYSISFollow the Money — Part 4: Nobody Owns This ProblemListen everywhere: https://plinkhq.com/i/1653637341?to=pageWebsite: https://www.onawaterbreak.comFollow @onawaterbreak.00:00 Quick Sip Intro00:23 Meet Jeff Gill + Ricardo Robinson-Shinall01:12 Jeff Gill's 32 Count Life Story02:49 Why Drum Corps Sustainability Matters04:48 Jeff's “Follow the Money” Series05:24 Does Spending Predict DCI Placement?08:46 Are Props and Uniforms Really the Problem?12:19 Should DCI Standardize Financial Reporting?14:58 Why Jeff Won't Use 2026 Results Yet17:18 Two Very Different Drum Corps Financial Models19:15 Are Member Dues Pricing Performers Out?21:10 What Happens Next?23:48 Four Reasons the Problem Doesn't Get Fixed27:11 Final Takeaways27:55 Where to Find Jeff Gill28:24 Quick Sip Closing

The record backs the frustration. Roe was never codified when Democrats had the chance. Medicare for All has been a talking point for 25 years. The federal minimum wage is still 7.25 an hour, under 15,000 dollars a year. Six or seven Democrats reliably cross over on defense authorization and funding bills, and then Chuck Schumer writes a letter. Nicolle Wallace made the point that stuck with Hawk: elected Democrats have spent decades treating their base as captive, because that base will never vote Republican. Then there is Hasan Piker, quoted out of context and never named on air. Hawk's standing dare to Morning Joe, Jake Tapper, and Dana Bash is to book him and have the argument directly.

This started in April, when Piker appeared at a campaign event with Dr. Abdul El-Sayed in Michigan and El-Sayed climbed in the polls. Third Way then organized a denunciation with members of Congress. Zohran Mamdani ran on free buses, cheaper housing, childcare, groceries, and taxing the rich, and most New York Democrats still would not endorse him. Hawk connects that to Kirsten Gillibrand's language about Mamdani after the primary. Third Way now plans 15 million dollars against Democrats who have already won their primaries. Not against Republicans.

Tucker Carlson says he's socially conservative and economically liberal. That's where we think the trouble starts. The $20 burrito may be real evidence that Americans are getting crushed by higher prices, but blaming investors, rich CEOs, and "free market capitalism" misses the actual argument. Nate and Chuck break down Tucker Carlson's comments about affordability, capital gains taxes, the purpose of an economic system, and the massive CEO-to-worker pay ratios that make people furious. Then they pull out a calculator and ask a very simple question: if you took a CEO's entire compensation and gave it to the workers, how much would their lives actually change? The conversation gets into libertarian economics, incentives, investment, government intervention, the Federal Reserve, monetary policy, and why politicians have such an easy time selling immediate solutions to complicated economic problems. There's also a bigger political problem. If voters correctly recognize that the economy isn't working for them but incorrectly identify the cause, the "solution" can easily become more government power. Finally, Nate and Chuck look at Argentina and Javier Milei as an example of a radically different approach: government doing less instead of promising to manage everything better.

August 9, 2026; 9am:  President Trump's focus is drifting further away from issues like the war in Iran and the economy, and further into his retribution campaign, vanity projects, and conspiracy theories.

Making the choice to have a child is an important one, deciding what state to have it in could be even more important. Affordability is a key concern when welcoming a baby with childbirth being one of the biggest upfront expenses, and other questions about things like access to health care and child care also taken in. A new survey from 'WalletHub' breaks down which states, and regions of the country, are your best choices to have a baby in. FOX's Tonya J. Powers speaks with Chip Lupo, writer and financial analyst for WalletHub, who shares with us what the survey discovered.

The Right is tearing itself apart over a $20 burrito, while regular Americans are still getting crushed by the cost of living. A college kid told Turning Point USA's Andrew Kolvet that a burrito shouldn't cost twenty bucks. That simple complaint set off a full-blown conservative civil war. Ben Shapiro said you're “doing life wrong” if you pay that much. Marc Thiessen told students to cry him a river. Then Vice President JD Vance jumped in with a fat joke about Thiessen never missing a burrito. Matt Walsh, Sean Davis, and half of conservative Twitter piled on. Meanwhile the actual prices of food, housing, and everything else never came back down after the Biden inflation spike. The rate slowed, but the high prices stuck. Voters handed Republicans the White House and Congress because they were sick of it. Now the same party is busy fighting a proxy war over Chipotle instead of delivering real relief. Tariffs, energy uncertainty, and endless internal drama aren't helping. The $20 burrito is just the symbol. The real problem is a party that won on affordability and is now distracted by the dumbest online food fight imaginable.

Trump signs new executive order cracking down on birth tourism. If El-Sayed is a uniter, why is he attacking second lady Usha Vance? Sharia law survivor speaks out against Islam — McKinney, Texas, ignores him. Does this burrito war make the GOP look completely out of touch with working families?
