Bienvenidos. That's California for welcome to the October 8th edition of National Reviews, Radio Free California Podcast. I'm Will Swain, President of the California Policy Center. You can find my colleagues and me at California PolicyCenter.org. You can find my friend and co-host David Bonson right here. He's an economist. He's the host of the Capital Record podcast. He's author of the book, Full Time Work and the Meaning of Life. And of course, he's founder of the eponymous investment from the Bonson Group. Hello, David. Hello, Will. How are you, my friend?
