Trump's Telltale Tall Tales and Totally Tacky Triumphs

John discusses Donald Trump lying about his new memorials and Treasury Secretary Scott Bessant testifying badly in congress about the nations economy. He also talks about Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth again denying women and black men promotions in the military. And he is baffled by the sudden appearance of flesh eating maggots in Texas after they were totally eradicated 60 years ago. Next he interviews Dr. George Byron Koch who's the author of "Bullies, Parasites, and Slaves", a thought-provoking unveiling of how societies are structured to benefit a few at the expense of many. And then, John speaks with A. Russell Andrews who's the founding member and producing artistic director of the multi-award winning Los Angeles-based stage company, StageWalkers. John and Russell discuss the emotional complexities of navigating life with ALS, especially as a father and partner, and how the support from the ALS Network has been instrumental in this journey. Joining them is Sherry Strahl, president and CEO of the ALS Network, who emphasizes the urgent need for comprehensive care and resources for families affected by this devastating disease. Together, they explore the challenges, triumphs, and the power of community in the face of adversity. See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
