Well, welcome to the Bill Bennett show. This is the podcast that translates

Donald Trump. We take a look at the serious matters that face America. We

confront what we regard as the existential threats to our country. Joining me today

is a favorite of yours, Joel Farkas, a favorite of mine too.

He's a director of the American Strategy Group.

I am a fellow, the American Strategy Group here in Washington.

Joel today we'll talk about Colorado.

He will share how Colorado seems to be going the way of California.

And there's some interesting data from our friend Joel Kotkin on California and trouble

for Prime Minister Trudeau in Alberta.

Right.

All of this connected, interesting stuff.

Also, I want to play some clips from a recent taping of wise guys.

This show's getting around, people are watching it. It's on Fox Nation.

Absolutely. My stepdad loves it. Really? Oh yeah, I went to the house the other day and he's sitting

there on a smartphone. What are you doing over there? He says, I'm watching wise guys.

So I was with the person, my dental hygienist, who's a very nice lady. We don't talk politics. She said,

I'd like to get one of your books from my father. Okay. And just address it to him, I'll give it to him, and then after that, after I address it to him I'll give it to him and then after

that after I give it to him we won't talk about it. I said why not he said she said we

don't see the world same way. So I mean she's got these sharp instruments in my teeth and I'm not I'm just not going to argue right now you're right yes that's smart does that make me less than you know

Smarticus makes you a rhino or is that's not my Spartacus moment, was it?

It was not my Spartacus. But that's fine, you're a smart man.
