Mark Zoril Pay Attention to Your Situation But Don’t Get Too Scared Podcast Episode: #21 Podcast Date: 8/14/2026 Transcript

Most high-income W-2 earners eventually run into the same problem. Their income gets better, but their structure does not. Airline pilots are one of the clearest examples. They can earn exceptional money, receive strong retirement contributions, and build what looks like a very successful financial life on paper. But as the income grows, so does the constraint: almost all of it is active, highly taxable, and tied to a system that gives them very few levers to pull. And pilots are not the only ones facing this. Doctors, executives, engineers, senior tech employees, corporate leaders, and employees sitting on major equity events can all end up in the same position. A big salary, bonus, liquidity event, or IPO can create life-changing income, but if that income is still flowing through a W-2 structure, the tax problem does not disappear. In many cases, it becomes more obvious. In this episode of Money School Elite, I sit down with Ryan Gibson, former airline pilot and co-founder of Spartan Investment Group, to talk about the difference between earning more money and changing the facts of your financial life. Ryan spent 17 years as an airline pilot before building a self-storage company with 90 facilities, roughly 7.5 million square feet, and about 200 employees. He understands the high-income W-2 problem because he lived it, and his perspective goes beyond simply making more, saving more, or maxing out retirement accounts. We get into why pilots and other high earners often pay more in taxes as their income rises, how strong retirement contributions should change the way they think about excess cash flow, why ownership opens up tax advantages employees often cannot access, and how self-storage can give investors exposure to real estate without buying themselves another job. This is not really a conversation about pilots, and it is not only about self-storage. It is about how high-income earners can turn income into structure, ownership, cash flow, tax efficiency, and long-term financial control.   About the Guest Ryan Gibson is the Co-Founder, President, and Chief Investment Officer of Spartan Investment Group, a commercial real estate firm focused on self-storage and private real estate investment opportunities. A former airline pilot with 17 years of active flying experience, Ryan brings a unique perspective to wealth-building for high-income W-2 professionals, especially pilots who are earning high incomes but often facing significant tax challenges. Through Spartan Investment Group, he helps individual investors access private real estate opportunities designed to create diversification, cash flow, tax advantages, and long-term wealth outside the traditional W-2 and 401(k) framework. Spartan has grown into a national self-storage platform with 90 facilities, roughly 7.5 million square feet, and approximately 200 employees. Ryan's real estate experience spans residential development, self-storage, infill development, finance, sales, marketing, investor relations, tax foreclosures, inherited homes and estates, and real estate syndication. He is also the co-founder of Passive Income Pilots, a platform and podcast that educates pilots and other high-income professionals on passive investing, tax strategy, real estate, and building wealth beyond the paycheck.   Spartan Investment Group: spartan-investors.com Join the Free Academy: ryan@spartan-investors.com Passive Income Pilots Podcast: https://passiveincomepilots.com/ Ryan Gibson on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/ryan-gibson1/   About Your Host From pro-snowboarder to money mogul, Chris Naugle has dedicated his life to being America's #1 Money Mentor.

Getting workplace law advice after you get a complaint is like fixing a schedule after the shift's over. In this episode of The Pre-Shift Podcast, we sit down with Felice Ekelman, a principal at Jackson Lewis who leads the firm's restaurant industry group, to talk about the compliance mistakes that catch multi-unit operators off guard. Felice walks through why state and local rules don't travel with you from one location to the next, what "audit-proof" really looks like on paper and on the floor, and what the no-tax-on-tips provision means. Whether you're running two locations or twenty, her approach to hiring, classification, and training offers practical steps for operators looking to reduce risk as they grow.Key TakeawaysCall Early, Not After: Hear why the operators who end up needing a workplace lawyer are usually the ones who consult one before opening.Not All State Rules Are Alike: Discover why assuming your California playbook works in New York (or vice versa) is one of the most common mistakes multi-unit operators make, and why highly regulated states like California, New York, Illinois, and Massachusetts require their own separate approach to wage transparency, scheduling notice, and break penalties.What "Audit-Proof" Actually Means: Learn the checklist Felice runs with clients: an updated handbook, the right posters, compliant I-9s, matching time and pay records, and clocked meal breaks instead of automatic deductions.The Title Never Decides the Case: Understand why calling someone a manager, a sous chef, or a shift lead doesn't determine whether they belong in the tip pool or qualify for overtime exemption. What matters is what the person actually does on shift, not their title.Transparency Builds Trust in the Tip Pool: Hear why the biggest tip pool problems come from staff not understanding who's in the pool and how much they're getting, and why showing the math every shift cuts down on disputes.Training Is Where the Real Risk Sits: Discover why Felice sees management training on EEO, wage and hour rules, accommodations, and consistent discipline as one of the highest-value investments an operator can make, since most legal exposure comes from a manager's split-second call.What New Rules Require From Your Payroll Provider: Learn why tax only applies to a portion of overtime pay, and why your payroll provider needs to be told, specifically, to separate that line item since it won't happen automatically.ResourcesMore about Felice https://www.jacksonlewis.com/people/felice-b-ekelmanContact Felice at Felice.Ekelman@jacksonlewis.comChapters00:00 Meet Felice Ekelman00:55 Call Your Lawyer Early02:55 Multi-Unit State Law Traps04:27 Staying Ahead of Changes07:34 California Compliance Minefield09:22 Audit Proof Your Operation13:49 Misclassification and Accommodations16:07 Hourly vs Salary Exemptions19:16 Tip Pool Rules and 80/2023:41 Training Managers for Compliance28:20 Insurance and Prevention Mindset29:16 No Tax on Tips: What to Do33:17 Contractors and Noncompetes36:44 Top Priorities: Pay and I-9s38:31 Key TakeawaysSend us Fan Mail

Shadow Politics with Senator Michael D. Brown and Co-host Liberty Jones No Vote, No Tax: Kymone Freeman's Fight for D.C. Statehood and Radical Accountability Michael D. Brown and Liberty Jones welcome Kymone Freeman for a wide-ranging conversation about D.C. statehood, tax resistance, Democratic Socialism, root causes of violence, poverty, food apartheid, housing justice, civic disengagement, and the urgent need for political courage in the nation's capital. Guest Spotlight: Kymone Freeman Kymone Freeman is the guest on this episode of Shadow Politics and is introduced as the founder of We Act Radio, an activist, and a candidate running in the general election as a D.C. Statehood Green Party candidate. Michael D. Brown describes Freeman as a longtime friend of the show and someone who has made Washington, D.C. a better place through grassroots work, while Freeman presents his campaign as a challenge to corporate Democratic leadership, political complacency, and the continued denial of full representation for D.C. residents. Find out more about Kymone Freeman's Campaign at his website: https://www.freeman4congress.com/ Shadow Politics Opens With a Grassroots Mission Michael D. Brown opens the episode by describing Shadow Politics as a grassroots talk show committed to making America think again. He explains that the show interviews people who are shaping politics and community life, often outside the brightest spotlight, and invites listeners to call in and engage. Liberty Jones joins as co-host, and Michael introduces Kymone Freeman as a returning guest whose activism, media work, and presence in Washington, D.C. have made him an important voice in the city's political conversation. Kymone Freeman's Campaign and the Statehood Green Party Freeman explains that he is running in the general election as a D.C. Statehood Green Party candidate after what he describes as a media blackout and resistance from the corporate leadership of the Democratic Party. He argues that progressive politics, Democratic Socialism, and challenges to the status quo are often excluded even within a party that claims to welcome a broad coalition. Freeman connects his campaign to the legacy of Hilda Mason, the D.C. Statehood Party leader and Democratic Socialist who once defeated a Democratic primary winner, suggesting that the current political moment may create another opportunity for history to repeat itself. “No Vote, No Tax” and Tax Resistance A major portion of the conversation centers on Freeman's “No Vote, No Tax” position. He argues that D.C. residents should not have to pay federal income taxes while being denied voting representation and statehood, comparing the District's situation to U.S. territories such as Puerto Rico and Guam. Freeman says he has personally been a tax resister for 30 years, both in support of D.C. statehood and as a war-tax resister. He presents tax resistance not only as protest, but as a pressure tactic that could move the statehood conversation forward if enough D.C. residents reached a critical mass. Root Causes of Violence, Poverty, and Food Apartheid Michael asks Freeman about addressing the root causes of poverty, and Freeman reframes the issue as addressing the root causes of crime and violence, with poverty as one of the central causes. He argues that poverty is man-made and maintained through policy, then connects violence to child poverty, illiteracy, food apartheid, lead pipes, poor nutrition, and public priorities that favor stadium spending over basic infrastructure. Freeman contrasts the number of grocery stores in wealthier Ward 3 with the lack of access in poorer Ward 7 and argues that D.C. must treat food, education, housing, and health as violence-prevention issues rather than relying only on police and prisons. Education, Chess, Housing, and Alternative Models Liberty asks what could help heal the roots of violence, and Freeman points to policy change, youth development, and structural investment. He discusses teaching chess to children as a way to build critical thinking and conflict-resolution skills, while also criticizing the difficulty of getting D.C. Public Schools to adopt chess more broadly. He also calls for grocery-store regulation, municipally owned supermarkets, community co-ops, and housing models inspired by places such as Vienna, Austria, where he says social housing and stronger safety nets help reduce poverty and crime. Freeman frames these ideas as part of a top-bottom political problem rather than a left-right divide. Democratic Socialism, Foreign Aid, and Civic Resistance The conversation broadens into Democratic Socialism, Zohran Mamdani, Israel, Netanyahu, diplomatic immunity, U.S. foreign aid, and the way narratives become normalized through political pressure. Freeman argues that intimidation and civic discouragement are designed to make people give up, pointing to low voter participation in D.C. as evidence of disconnection and resignation. He invokes Martin Luther King Jr.'s question, “Where do we go from here: chaos or community?” and argues that people must remain awake through major social change instead of sleeping through revolution. The hosts also discuss voter ID, the SAVE America Act, and how the term “woke” became a political weapon. D.C. Leadership, Campaign Priorities, and the Closing Call to Imagine Near the end of the episode, Michael asks Freeman about D.C.'s incoming mayoral leadership, Muriel Bowser's record, Janice's potential approach to Trump, and whether new leadership might better support statehood. Freeman says he expects change but will judge leadership by whether it stands ground or capitulates. He also promotes an upcoming town hall at Busboys and Poets, gives his campaign website, and explains additional priorities including a 30-percent cap on housing plus utilities and banning private equity from owning homes. Michael closes by dedicating John Lennon's “Imagine” to Freeman, describing him as someone who thinks big and imagines a better tomorrow.

I want to alert you, so you don’t miss out on expert analysis and insider perspectives from my guests who provide tips that can help you uplift the community, improve your financial planning, motivation, or advice on how to be a successful entrepreneur. Keep winning! Two-time Emmy and Three-time NAACP Image Award-winning, television Executive Producer Rushion McDonald interviewed Cheryl Taylor Anderson. Podcast: Money Making Conversations MasterclassHost: Rushion McDonaldGuest: Cheryl Taylor Anderson, Real Estate Broker (Metro Atlanta) 1. Purpose of the Interview The core purpose of this interview is to educate, empower, and motivate listeners—particularly first‑time homebuyers, renters, veterans, and people of color—to pursue homeownership as a wealth‑building strategy. Specifically, the conversation aims to: Demystify the homebuying process Combat fear and misinformation around mortgages Highlight low‑ and zero‑down payment opportunities Explain how homeowners can build equity faster Emphasize real estate as a key tool for generational wealth Encourage disciplined financial decisions rooted in ownership rather than renting Rushion positions the discussion as a knowledge‑sharing opportunity to help listeners move from renting to owning, especially in communities historically excluded from homeownership. 2. Interview Overview Cheryl Taylor Anderson brings more than 20 years of real estate experience and over $400 million in sales in Metro Atlanta. She works with: First‑time homebuyers VA and military families Move‑up buyers Luxury clients and institutional sellers Throughout the interview, Cheryl provides practical, real‑world examples—including her own story as a former single mother and homeowner—to ease fear, explain financing, and correct misconceptions about buying a home. 3. Key Takeaways A. Many Renters Can Already Afford to Own One of the central points is that many renters are paying as much—or more—than mortgage payments without building equity. Rent payments offer no tax benefits Mortgage payments build ownership and wealth Homeowners can deduct mortgage interest (unlike rent) Key idea: Many people qualify for ownership but are held back by misinformation and fear. B. First‑Time Homebuyers Have More Options Than They Realize Cheryl explains that many buyers are unaware of: Zero‑down payment programs Builder incentives covering closing costs Opportunities to move into homes with minimal out‑of‑pocket costs In some cases, buyers are only required to bring earnest money, making homeownership far more accessible than expected. C. VA and Veteran Benefits Are Underused Cheryl strongly emphasizes VA loans as one of the most powerful tools for homeownership: 100% financing (zero down payment) Ability to ask sellers for up to 6% in closing cost contributions Certain veterans may be exempt from property taxes Lower monthly payments overall Veterans are encouraged to use their benefits, even years after leaving military service. D. A 30‑Year Mortgage Does Not Mean 30 Years of Debt Cheryl reframes mortgage timelines by teaching strategic repayment: Paying bi‑weekly instead of monthly Adding small extra payments ($50–$100/month) Reducing both interest and principal faster She uses her personal example of being close to paying off her home early despite starting with a traditional 30‑year loan. E. Homeownership Builds Stability and Community The interview contrasts renting versus owning: Ownership benefits include: Equity growth Customization and upgrades Neighborhood relationships Security and long‑term stability A tangible asset to pass to children Even HOA‑managed communities—while sometimes frustrating—protect property values and neighborhood standards. F. Home Warranties Reduce Fear of Maintenance To address anxiety about repairs, Cheryl recommends home warranties: Cover major systems (HVAC, water heaters, appliances) Low service fees when repairs are needed Can be negotiated into purchase contracts Provide peace of mind similar to apartment maintenance This is especially helpful for first‑time buyers. G. Social Media Builds Trust and Visibility Cheryl explains how social media strengthens her business: Buyers see real closings, celebrations, and testimonials Creates emotional connection and trust Inspires others to picture themselves as homeowners Visibility drives confidence and referrals. H. Education and Adaptability Drive Longevity Cheryl credits her success through: The 2008 housing crisis COVID‑19 Market shifts to constant learning, flexibility, and strategy pivots (e.g., foreclosures, BPOs, builder incentives). 4. Notable Quotes On Renting vs. Owning “Never be willing to pay somebody more than you’re willing to pay yourself.” On First‑Time Buyer Fear “Don’t let the longevity scare you. In an apartment, you’re building nothing.” On VA Benefits “Veterans can come to the table with zero down—and sometimes no property taxes.” On Mortgage Strategy “Pay every two weeks and it knocks down your interest and principal faster.” On Equity “Rent doesn’t give you anything to leave your children. Homeownership does.” On Homeownership Mindset “People are willing to pay their landlord more than they’ll pay themselves.” 5. Overall Takeaway This interview reinforces homeownership as one of the most powerful, attainable tools for building long‑term wealth—when buyers are properly educated, supported, and encouraged to move past fear and misinformation. Cheryl Taylor Anderson demonstrates that: Buying a home is often more accessible than people believe Strategic mortgage management can drastically shorten debt timelines Ownership builds equity, stability, and generational opportunity #SHMS #BEST #STRAW #AMISee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Key Takeaways A. Many Renters Can Already Afford to Own One of the central points is that many renters are paying as much—or more—than mortgage payments without building equity. Rent payments offer no tax benefits Mortgage payments build ownership and wealth Homeowners can deduct mortgage interest (unlike rent) Key idea: Many people qualify for ownership but are held back by misinformation and fear. B. First‑Time Homebuyers Have More Options Than They Realize Cheryl explains that many buyers are unaware of: Zero‑down payment programs Builder incentives covering closing costs Opportunities to move into homes with minimal out‑of‑pocket costs In some cases, buyers are only required to bring earnest money, making homeownership far more accessible than expected. C. VA and Veteran Benefits Are Underused Cheryl strongly emphasizes VA loans as one of the most powerful tools for homeownership: 100% financing (zero down payment) Ability to ask sellers for up to 6% in closing cost contributions Certain veterans may be exempt from property taxes Lower monthly payments overall Veterans are encouraged to use their benefits, even years after leaving military service. D. A 30‑Year Mortgage Does Not Mean 30 Years of Debt Cheryl reframes mortgage timelines by teaching strategic repayment: Paying bi‑weekly instead of monthly Adding small extra payments ($50–$100/month) Reducing both interest and principal faster She uses her personal example of being close to paying off her home early despite starting with a traditional 30‑year loan. E. Homeownership Builds Stability and Community The interview contrasts renting versus owning: Ownership benefits include: Equity growth Customization and upgrades Neighborhood relationships Security and long‑term stability A tangible asset to pass to children Even HOA‑managed communities—while sometimes frustrating—protect property values and neighborhood standards. F. Home Warranties Reduce Fear of Maintenance To address anxiety about repairs, Cheryl recommends home warranties: Cover major systems (HVAC, water heaters, appliances) Low service fees when repairs are needed Can be negotiated into purchase contracts Provide peace of mind similar to apartment maintenance This is especially helpful for first‑time buyers. G. Social Media Builds Trust and Visibility Cheryl explains how social media strengthens her business: Buyers see real closings, celebrations, and testimonials Creates emotional connection and trust Inspires others to picture themselves as homeowners Visibility drives confidence and referrals. H. Education and Adaptability Drive Longevity Cheryl credits her success through: The 2008 housing crisis COVID‑19 Market shifts to constant learning, flexibility, and strategy pivots (e.g., foreclosures, BPOs, builder incentives). 4. Notable Quotes On Renting vs. Owning “Never be willing to pay somebody more than you’re willing to pay yourself.” On First‑Time Buyer Fear “Don’t let the longevity scare you. In an apartment, you’re building nothing.” On VA Benefits “Veterans can come to the table with zero down—and sometimes no property taxes.” On Mortgage Strategy “Pay every two weeks and it knocks down your interest and principal faster.” On Equity “Rent doesn’t give you anything to leave your children. Homeownership does.” On Homeownership Mindset “People are willing to pay their landlord more than they’ll pay themselves.” 5. Overall Takeaway This interview reinforces homeownership as one of the most powerful, attainable tools for building long‑term wealth—when buyers are properly educated, supported, and encouraged to move past fear and misinformation. Cheryl Taylor Anderson demonstrates that: Buying a home is often more accessible than people believe Strategic mortgage management can drastically shorten debt timelines Ownership builds equity, stability, and generational opportunity #SHMS #BEST #STRAW #AMISee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Every now and then a government does something that goes just a bit too far and causes the people to protest.  One such example was the British imposition of the Stamp Act on the American Colonies.  What was the Stamp Act?  What was the so-called justification for it?  What was the reaction from the Americans?  To help us tackle this important event that helped usher in a growing anti-monarchy sentiment that culminated in the American Revolution, we are delighted to welcome Scot Faulkner as our special guest today.  Scot Faulkner is longtime friend of Constituting America and served as the first-ever Chief Administrative Officer for the U.S. House of Representatives and is Vice President of Shepherd University's George Washington Institute of Living Ethics.

Fernando Mateo leads a discussion with restaurant owner Peter Kambitzis and tax expert Eddie Estrella regarding the federal elimination of taxes on tips. The conversation highlights how this policy, alongside the removal of taxes on overtime pay, aims to increase the spending power of the working class and help families manage the high cost of living. A central theme is the disconnect between federal and state policy, as the speakers urge New York's governor to mirror these tax breaks at the state level to further support the hospitality industry.

Millions of Americans are seeing bigger tax refunds—and many didn't expect it. New policies tied to Donald Trump are delivering what supporters call historic relief: no tax on tips, no tax on overtime, and higher average refunds across the board. Congressman William Timmons joins Tara to break down how these changes are impacting working families—and why critics are still pushing back. Plus: a major new proposal aimed at cutting government waste and reshaping the welfare system. ⚡ EPISODE SUMMARY This episode highlights what the Trump administration calls a “record-setting” tax season, with millions of Americans receiving significantly larger refunds. Key takeaways include: Over 50 million Americans benefiting from new tax policies Average refunds rising by double digits Millions taking advantage of “no tax on tips” and “no tax on overtime” William Timmons argues the policies are designed to reward work and increase economic participation—while critics question the long-term impact. The conversation also shifts to national security concerns involving Iran and a broader debate over U.S. strategy abroad. Finally, Timmons introduces the TAB Act, a proposal aimed at reducing fraud in government assistance programs while removing barriers that discourage people from re-entering the workforce.

──────────────────────────────────────── [00:08:52] "No Tax on Tips" Is a Head Fake — Capped, Restricted, Payroll Taxes Still Apply IRS limited the policy to ~70 occupations, capped qualifying tips at $25,000, excluded mandatory service charges, and left Medicare and Social Security intact. Most tipped workers see minimal benefit. ──────────────────────────────────────── [00:23:19] Fertilizer Up 40-50% — Farmers Who Voted 75% for Trump Being Blindsided Urea up 50% at New Orleans. Farmers are cutting yields. Rollins: 80% bought before prices spiked — only 20% are being destroyed. Trump blamed the fertilizer monopoly. ──────────────────────────────────────── [00:35:04] Knight Played This on Election Eve 2020: Warp Speed Is a Military Surveillance Infrastructure Knight replays his November 2020 broadcast: Moderna's DARPA/CIA contract was 53 pages, almost entirely redacted. He said there is no safe vaccine in Warp Speed — it was infrastructure for totalitarian control. He was fired for this. ──────────────────────────────────────── [00:52:28] Trump Used the 1930 Smoot-Hawley Tariff Act to Subpoena a Reddit User Who Criticized ICE Federal prosecutors ordered Reddit to hand over data on a user who posted biographical details about an ICE agent. Legal basis: a 1930 customs law governing boat show sales. When challenged in court, the government withdrew — then returned with a secret grand jury. ──────────────────────────────────────── [00:59:12] Digital ID Bills Advancing — Pre-Collected Identity Will Eliminate the Need for Subpoenas Half of US states already require government ID for certain platforms. Zuckerberg told a court Apple and Google should verify every smartphone user at the OS level. Knight: digital ID eliminates subpoenas — identity is pre-collected, waiting. ──────────────────────────────────────── [01:29:07] Pfizer's Chief Toxicologist: Cancer Risk Studies Were Skipped — Reproductive Harm Was Never Studied Pfizer's former chief toxicologist testified to a German inquiry that cancer risk studies were skipped due to time constraints and the vaccine's impact on pregnancy was never studied — while the government mandated it for pregnant women. ──────────────────────────────────────── [01:38:59] Saudi Arabia Canceled the Petrodollar Agreement Two Years Ago — Forbes Just Reported It Saudi Arabia secretly ended the 50-year petrodollar deal two years ago. The dollar's global reserve share has fallen from 71% in 1999 to 57% today. China is now offering Gulf states the same security umbrella the US used in 1974. ──────────────────────────────────────── [01:43:35] Jeffrey Sachs: The US Has Diverted Trillions to War While Roads and Infrastructure Collapse Jeffrey Sachs: if you ask why roads don't work and living standards are declining, it's because we spend trillions on war. Trump lied every word about America first. They've squandered our wealth for the Zionist lobby. ──────────────────────────────────────── [01:47:58] Netanyahu Told Israel He Had Been Waiting 40 Years for This War Netanyahu told the Israeli people he had been waiting for this moment for 40 years. Knight: not a reaction to a threat — the execution of a decades-long plan whose real goal is the destruction of the Middle East. ──────────────────────────────────────── [01:53:22] Stable Coin Is a Retail-Level CBDC — Designed to Destroy Community Banks The White House stable coin plan uses retail customers to buy Treasury bonds foreign central banks no longer want. Eric Trump boasted community banks will disappear. Knight: same function as a CBDC, laundered through private companies. ──────────────────────────────────────── [01:58:39] Dershowitz Claims Credit for Telling Trump to Blockade the Strait — Which Was Already Closed Dershowitz boasted he advised Trump to blockade the Strait of Hormuz — already closed by Iran. Levin and Pollard are using identical talking points to push Trump toward nuclear weapons. ──────────────────────────────────────── [01:59:20] GOP Senator: Americans Can Handle Higher Gas Prices — It's for National Security Senator Roger Marshall told constituents to handle higher gas prices because it's for national security.

Knight: digital ID eliminates subpoenas — identity is pre-collected, waiting. ──────────────────────────────────────── [01:29:07] Pfizer's Chief Toxicologist: Cancer Risk Studies Were Skipped — Reproductive Harm Was Never Studied Pfizer's former chief toxicologist testified to a German inquiry that cancer risk studies were skipped due to time constraints and the vaccine's impact on pregnancy was never studied — while the government mandated it for pregnant women. ──────────────────────────────────────── [01:38:59] Saudi Arabia Canceled the Petrodollar Agreement Two Years Ago — Forbes Just Reported It Saudi Arabia secretly ended the 50-year petrodollar deal two years ago.

Welcome to Show Me The Money Club live show with Sergio and Chris Tuesdays 6pm est/3pm pst.

Host Scott Hennen opens this high-energy edition of What's On Your Mind by refusing to let the news cycle bury one of the greatest American achievements of the decade: the successful splashdown and return of the Artemis 2 crew. Scott breaks down the raw emotion of the astronauts' homecoming and explains why winning the "war in space" is a vital signal to global competitors like China. The conversation then shifts to the heavy-hitting political landscape of the Midwest. U.S. Senate candidate Michelle Tafoya joins Scott in-studio to discuss her campaign to "right the ship" in Minnesota, tackling the state's massive fraud scandals, the "woke" educational agenda, and why 200,000 missing Republican voters are the key to a 2026 victory. Later, Scott provides live analysis of President Trump's Rose Garden press conference, covering everything from the naval blockade of Iran to his public "dust-up" with the Pope and a surprise DoorDash delivery that highlights his "no tax on tips" policy. Standout Moments: [00:10:50] The "Joy Train" Returns: Scott plays moving clips from Artemis 2 astronauts Victor Glover and Christina Koch, highlighting their first press conference in Houston after 10 days in space.   [00:14:50] Michelle Tafoya In-Studio: The former sports broadcaster turned Senate candidate pulls no punches regarding the Tim Walz administration, calling for prison sentences for those involved in state fraud scandals.   [00:20:15] Voting with Their Feet: Tafoya explains why middle-class families are fleeing Minnesota for "freer states" like South Carolina and Florida to escape radical agendas.   [00:22:10] The $10 Million Race: A look at the financial metrics of the Minnesota Senate race and Tafoya's 2.2-million-dollar first-quarter fundraising haul.   [00:27:12] No Tax on Tips: President Trump makes history by accepting a DoorDash delivery at the White House to promote tax relief for service workers.   [00:30:45] Blockading Iran: Trump takes media questions on the naval blockade of the Strait of Hormuz, vowing that Iran will never become a nuclear nation.   [00:32:30] Trump vs. The Pope: Scott addresses the tension between the Vatican and the White House, arguing that the Pope and the President have fundamentally different roles and constituencies.   [00:37:15] Behavioral Health in Schools: Sanford Health psychologist Dr. Nicole Cross-Hillman discusses a growing program bringing mental health services directly into classrooms.   [00:41:40] Red at the Ralph: A preview of the upcoming gubernatorial debate in Thief River Falls featuring Mike Lindell and other Republican contenders.…

President Donald Trump turned a White House food delivery into a policy moment, highlighting his “No Tax on Tips” initiative. But the exchange quickly shifted as reporters pressed him on rising tensions with Iran and a newly launched naval blockade.

It feels like every week, another Denver restaurant is closing – Enzo's End Pizzeria served its last slice on Friday, Imperial Chinese shuttered out of the blue after 41 years, and local chain Little India announced it will close its 32nd Ave. and Lowell Blvd. location in the coming months. Is it due to rising food costs? The ongoing concern of high rents? Or, is it the price of labor? Last month's 2025 State of Denver Restaurants Report points to the city's rising tipped minimum wage as a major issue for restaurants, bars, and cafes; Councilman Darrell Watson has even hinted at a plan to address labor costs. But Lindsay Dalton, co-owner of The Weathervane Cafe, disagrees and she's part of a growing chorus of business owners who are pushing back. She joins host Bree Davies to make her case. Lindsay mentioned the city's 2023 minimum wage report and Matthew Fritz-Maur, who runs the Denver Labor division of the Denver Auditor's office and who was on the podcast in 2023 talking about his investigation into wage theft at strip clubs. Weathervane Cafe was previously featured in a New Yorker article last year about President Trump's ‘No Tax on Tips' policy. We reached out to Denver Labor to ask more about Fritz-Maur's critiques of the restaurant report. He was unable for comment, but a spokesperson shared this fact sheet their office has prepared and the following statement about that document: “We compiled it as restaurants have reached out to us with questions about [Colorado Restaurant Association's] information and generally about the tip credit. We have multiple times asked CRA for their source material to support their findings and they have not yet provided it to us. The Auditor's Office and Denver Labor is neutral on the issue of adjusting the tip credit, but we feel it is our responsibility to provide business owners and the public with independent research to make informed decisions.” For even more news from around the city, subscribe to our morning newsletter at denver.citycast.fm.

Why does every president feel like a disappointment?This episode breaks down the real reason — and it's not who you voted for.From tax policy to tariffs to immigration, what voters are promised and what actually gets delivered are two completely different things.Not because of one person…But because of a system designed to reshape outcomes.If you've ever felt like:“Nothing ever actually changes”“Every promise gets watered down”“The system is rigged”You're not wrong.You're just seeing the machine.00:00 The Couch That Wasn't the Couch02:50 The Political “Product Gap”06:10 What This Episode Is REALLY About09:40 The Dealership Analogy (Perfect Setup)12:00 Campaign vs Governing Explained15:00 “No Tax on Tips” Reality20:30 Tariffs & Court Limits24:30 Immigration vs Media Narrative28:30 The 3-Layer Machine (Congress / Courts / Media)33:30 Why Approval Ratings Are Misleading38:30 Accountability Disappears43:00 Incentives Are Broken47:30 Narrative > Reality52:00 The Human Cost (Cynicism & Frustration)56:00 Final Thesis: The Machine Is The Story#Trump #Politics #ApprovalRatings #Government #Media #Conservative #Podcast #CommonSense

A tax break designed for working Americans… blocked by Republicans? Supporters of Donald Trump are praising the “no tax on tips” provision as a long-overdue win for blue-collar workers—especially those who've seen wages stagnate for decades. But in a shocking twist, South Carolina lawmakers rejected a bill that would have mirrored those federal tax cuts at the state level. Even more surprising? States like California and Michigan have already moved to adopt similar relief. With billions in surplus revenue, why block tax relief for workers who need it most? This episode breaks down the politics, the economics, and the frustration boiling over for everyday taxpayers.

A new bill seeks to exempt National Guard and Reserve drill pay from federal income taxes. The No Tax on Drill Pay Act would eliminate taxes on income earned during Inactive Duty Training, which typically includes monthly drill weekends and other readiness training throughout the year. Congressman Andy Barr, who introduced the bill, said eliminating federal taxes on drill pay would reward the more than 800,000 Americans who serve in the Guard and Reserve. The bill follows several recent proposals aimed at making certain military pay tax-free. Last year, a group of lawmakers introduced legislation to exempt all military bonuses from federal income tax, while another proposal is seeking to fully exempt military compensation from federal income tax.

Chris Stigall delivers a special Washington, D.C. edition from The Lion, featuring exclusive interviews with two key Trump administration leaders the day after the State of the Union. U.S. Labor Secretary Lori Chavez-DeRemer outlines the Department of Labor's broad role—from education and training to worker protections and retirement—highlighting pro-family policies, apprenticeships, skilled trades emphasis, and collaboration with SBA and Education to meet market demands. She discusses border security's workforce impact, legal immigration integrity, no tax on tips/overtime, and record small business optimism. SBA Administrator Kelly Loeffler details a historic small business boom—36 million firms, record formation, 20% deduction permanence, Made in America incentives, and reshoring from overseas supply chains. Both emphasize private-sector job growth, deregulation, and America's exceptionalism. The episode closes with Faith and Freedom 250, reflecting on religious liberty's role in U.S. history and its ongoing defense.00:00:00 - Introduction and Series Overview00:00:45 - The Lion News and Commentary Plug00:01:14 - Secretary Chavez-DeRemer Introduction00:01:34 - State of the Union Impressions00:03:05 - Role of Secretary of Labor00:04:28 - Workforce Training and Education Ties00:05:42 - Population and Workforce Growth Concerns00:07:17 - Border Security and Legal Immigration00:08:39 - Visa Programs and Integrity00:09:51 - Skilled Trades and Apprenticeships Push00:11:09 - No Tax on Tips/Overtime Benefits00:13:13 - Cabinet Collaboration and Mission00:15:47 - SBA Administrator Kelly Loeffler Introduction00:16:41 - Small Business Record Growth00:18:23 - Tax Incentives and Optimism Surge00:19:49 - Reshoring and Supply Chain Control00:21:17 - Health Insurance Challenges for Small Firms00:23:17 - Cabinet Unity and America First Focus00:25:28 - Faith and Freedom 250 SegmentFollow The Lion on Facebook, Instagram, X, and YouTube.
