Shapiro Show. So many things to talk about today. We'll get to all of them. We'll

0:18.1

analyze all of the things happening in this beautiful world before the advent of Christmas. But we begin before that by talking about the fact you're losing your hair. I know it's depressing. I know you don't want to think that you look like your father, but here is the reality. As we get older, we tend to lose our hair. I know my father has male pattern baldness. And that is why I'm a big fan of keeps. Losing your hair

sucks, but there is something that you can do about it. That's why you should be using keeps. The easiest and most affordable way to keep the hair that you have.

So we begin today with all of the hubbub that has now broken out amidst the Michael Cohen sentencing. So as you recall from

1:45.2

yesterday's show in the ongoing legal saga that is the Trump administration, Michael Cohen,

1:51.5

the president's personal attorney, was sentenced to three years in jail, which was not good

ancillary details of the actual plea agreement.

2:02.4

Judge William Pauley III said that Michael Cohen had committed a bevy of crimes with an eye toward deception.
