Summary

Jim is back! Join Jim and Greg as they welcome the Axios assessment that Republicans seem to have momentum in the battle for the U.S. Senate thanks to shifts in a couple key races. They're also concerned as the U.S. Army reports it fell 15,000 soldiers short of it's recruiting goal in Fiscal Year 2022. That's 25 percent below the target and the other branches posted disappointing numbers too. And they shudder as more and more signs point to gas prices rising again soon, including OPEC threatening significant production cuts.

Jim and Greg also reflect back to the D.C. snipers, whose killing spree began 20 years ago today and claimed the lives of 10 innocent people in the area.

0:00.0	Welcome to the Three Martini Lunch.
0:04.8	Grab a stool next to Greg Corumbus of Radio America and Jim Garrity of National Review.
0:10.6	Three Martini's coming up.
0:12.6	Hey, really glad you're with us for the Monday edition of the Three Martini Lunch.
0:17.0	We've got you still ready for you here, so we're glad you've joined us.
0:20.5	Jim is back from his trip to California and the Reagan Library.
0:23.7	If you follow him on Twitter, you saw him looking like James Bond with the Air Force
0:28.2	one behind him and see me Valley, California.
0:31.5	We're going to talk about a couple different things here real quick before we get to our
0:35.0	Three Martini's. First of all, Jim, the Jets win in dramatic fashion again.
0:39.6	You're now two and two overall and two and two against the AFC North, which is kind of fun.
0:45.1	And the Bears lost yesterday to the Giants, but I'm hoping that they got some experience
0:50.8	just being in that stadium because, of course, the biggest game of the year is coming
0:56.2	the Sunday after Thanksgiving. And what I've noticed, even though we're both two and two,
0:59.6	we never win the same week. So something's got to give when we meet in late November.
1:05.2	That's generally how it works and my suspicion is we'll end up with a tie.
1:10.5	Okay, good game. No, it's great. Actually, technically, the NFL has announced that the Giants
1:16.8	beat the Bears, but my understanding is that the Bears are still laterally in that pass.
1:22.0	The 45 seconds they went yesterday, they're still laterally. They just keep going back and forth
1:26.7	passing it. So we'll see how that last play ends sometime next week.
1:29.6	You know, some old-school coach back in the day would make him laterally all the way back
1:32.9	to Chicago for losing the game, but we'll see what happens. But yeah, well, both teams are two
