Welcome back to the Bill Bennett show. We have some great interviews coming up. Michael

Rubin coming up and Larry Kudlow. Michael Rubin on Iran, Larry Kudlow on the

economy and what we expect from it in 2018.

First few things to discuss, college football playoff results.

Well, the final four, if you will.

I... the final four if you will I I figured Alabama was going to be Clemson but I opined

let's just use that verb that Clemson would not lose by more than 13 points.

So I, in a friendly discussion I took Clemson plus 13 and that didn't win in that non-existent wager. But Alabama just totally dominated.

The good news for me on the Oklahoma and Georgia game was I went back and forth

couldn't make up my mind and in that I was prescient because that's exactly what

happened in the game one of the great games of all time in college football back and forth up and down back and forth

lead changing a lot and you know last one to get the ball and score and

you know it was it was pretty impressive in

in my imaginary bed I had Oklahoma plus 10 so I was fine on that front but and now comes the final and you

know in in my imaginary fantasy world of betting here there's one thing at the very top which I

should always remember don't bet against Alabama. That's pretty good advice. I'm

going to take Alabama and I don't need points or anything just you know Alabama.

So there you go and that will end the college football season. I don't know what I'll do

on Saturdays and Mondays now for a while but we'll see I don't know if I can bring

myself to watch the pros given the other distractions of the pros but so be

it let me talk about Steve Bannon thing and let me talk about it briefly because it's all over the news yesterday today probably tomorrow

It's a huge distraction
