Welcome to another episode of the Tom Woods show.

Mike Church is our guest today.

0:19.5

Mike's been a guest a couple of times in the past, and I've been a guest numerous times on his show, which up till recently was carried on SiriusXM satellite radio, where Mike was the longest running talk show host ever, ever in the history of satellite radio, but he is no longer with Sirius XM. We're going to talk

0:38.7

about what exactly happened there. Mike has really been a hero, in my opinion, for a lot of

1:41.3

But if you've reached a point where you say, I just can't manage this

1:45.5

anymore, I'm sick and tired of doing lesson plans all day, and my house is a mess, and I can't keep

1:50.8
