0:00.0 | Get ready to take a flamethrower to the official narrative and learn what the elites don't want you to know. |
0:08.8 | You're listening to The Tom Woods Show. |
0:18.6 | Hey, everybody, Tom Woods here. It's episode 2,600 of the Tom Woods show. And I am joined today by Zach Weissmuller, who is senior producer at Reason and Guy Swan, both of whom are returning to the show. Guy is with Bitcoin Audible, a podcast I just listened to the other day and an episode specifically |
0:38.5 | on the topic we're covering today, which is Ross Ulbrix. |
0:41.9 | Now, in yesterday's episode, we talked about the details surrounding the pardon and the months |

1:41.7 | around having the same old charges against him raised by people. |
1:46.3 | So I thought we want to hit this head on. |
1:48.3 | So first of all, Zach, let me start with you. |
1:51.4 | I thought, as I said in the episode the other day, that I did think Trump was going to free him, |
