Texas Redistricting Like the Holocaust? Students Thrive Without Phones, Howard's End?

from 3 Martini Lunch – Political Humor & Commentary · host Jim Geraghty & Greg Corombos – Political Humor Commentary

Hillsdale College Radio General Manager and Radio Free Hillsdale Hour host Scot Bertram fills in for Jim on Thursday’s edition of the 3 Martini Lunch. Join Scot and Greg as they dissect the left’s increasingly outlandish arguments over Texas congressional redistricting, highlight new research showing students benefit from phone-free classrooms, and react to reports that Howard Stern may soon retire.First, they sit in disbelief as a Texas Democrat, who is currently on the lam in Illinois, compares the congressional redistricting fight to the Holocaust. They also chide CNN's Jake Tapper for saying Republicans abuse redistricting far more than Democrats and explain why Republicans feel confident creating new districts heavily populated with Hispanic voters who voted for Democrats until fairly recently.Next, they dig into a new study showing that students do better in school when they don't have their phones in class with them. The research also finds that students support the phone restrictions once they experience them and enjoy more real-life interaction with their peers.Finally, they discuss reports that Howard Stern may soon end his lucrative partnership with Sirius/XM. They review Stern's evolution from supposedly fearless shock jock to a pathetic, pandering leftist. Scot also explains why he believes Stern is overrated in the area where most people give him the highest compliments.Please visit our great sponsors:Upgrade your skincare routine with Caldera Lab and see the difference.  Visit https://CalderaLab.com/3ML and use code 3ML at checkout for 20% off your first order.Support your health with Dose Daily.  Save 25% on your first month when you subscribe at https://DoseDaily.co/3ML or enter code 3ML at checkout. New episodes every weekday. 👉 Subscribe to the show so you never miss a moment.Follow us for more daily clips, updates, and commentary:FacebookInstagramYoutubeOther InfoWebsite
