| 0:03.5 | Prepare to set fire to the index card of allowable opinion. |
| 0:08.1 | Your daily dose of liberty education starts here, the Tom Woods Show. |
| 0:14.3 | Hey, everybody, there's an excellent case to be made for buying gold for the long haul, |
| 0:18.5 | but we shouldn't forget about silver, according to Peter Schiff |
| 0:21.0 | and the folks at Schiff Gold, who have just released a free report, the powerful case for silver. |
| 0:27.3 | Check it out at tomwoods.com slash silver. |
| 0:30.4 | Hey, everybody, Tom Woods here. We talk an awful lot about people who have been spending four |
| 0:35.2 | years in college, racking up all kinds of debt, and then when they get |
| 0:38.7 | out, they can't get a job that they've been trained for, if you even consider college to be |
| 0:43.4 | training. They can't get any type of satisfactory job, really, at all. But yet people don't know |

| 1:47.8 | actually get experience, real experience in the business world. And it turns out that so far, |
| 1:55.3 | the results in terms of job placement and professional success are very, very good. |
| 2:00.8 | Isaac Morehouse, welcome to the show. Thank you so much for having me, Tom. It's great to be job placement and professional success are very, very good. |
