Season 5, Episode 9 - Roman Emperor Marcus Aurelius, Senator John Kerry, TSA's classification of food items, Jon Stewart, Tim Walz, Milton Friedman, Phil Donahue, David Friedberg, and much more!

In this week's podcast, our quote of the week is from the Roman Emperor Marcus Aurelius on why you should lead a virtuous life regardless of your belief in God.   In the stupidest thing I've heard all week, we'll share with you a question about grocery prices by the former spokesperson for Senator John Kerry.   In our runner-up to the Stupidest Thing I've Heard all week contest, we'll tell you what common food item the TSA classifies as a liquid and limits the amount you can have in your carry-on luggage to just 3.4 ounces, even though you can't pour it.   We have a bunch of audio and video clips this week, starting with Jon Stewart lampooning the multiple examples of hypocrisy at the Democratic National Convention last week.   We'll read a letter from the Nebraska Chamber of Commerce to now VP Nominee Tim Walz requesting that he stop claiming that he had received an award from them.   In another clip, Nobel Award-winning economist Milton Friedman explains to talk show host Phil Donahue why greed is not a bad thing.   In another clip, tech legend David Friedberg challenges Kamala Harris's claims about alleged price gouging using a variety of hard, contradictory data.   In yet another Milton Friedman clip, he explains why price controls have consistently failed as a cure for inflation and provides a simple analogy to explain why.   Our taxpayer relief shot comes to us from Houston, where the 20-year-old son of the homeowner springs into action and confronts three armed home invaders who had attacked his father and were holding his sisters hostage.
