Hey, Ken, did you know that gold is the only currency that's held its value since the dawn of money?

Well, I did. Thanks to our friends at Legacy Precious Metals, the most trusted name in gold investing.

on this hour. Gavin Newsom tells the truckers who have been protesting

against Assembly Bill 5. That's the one that wants to turn them into employees and take away their

independence. He basically tells him to drop dead. We'll bring you the story. Yeah, he did. Drop dead.

Drop dead. That's a quote. Not exactly. Pretty close. They have been tying up the port of Oakland for some time now.

So we'll talk about that coming up in a little bit, this hour on the John and Ken show.

Next Friday, July 29th, based on the current numbers, which are ridiculous, described as the elevated transmission level of the coronavirus and

rising hospitalization numbers, all bogus. This is nowhere near where we were in 2020 and 21,

and we have to take a new approach to it, but instead we have a county health director by the name

of Barbara Ferrer. We do not call her doctor. She is not a doctor who wants to reimpose the

indoor mask mandate. It'll be in effect next Friday, July 29th. We're going to talk now

with Tracy Hernandez. She's the founding CEO of the Los Angeles County Business Federation,

and they are lobbying heavily against this move by Ferrer for obvious reasons.

And let's get Tracy on.

Tracy Hernandez, welcome to the John and Ken Show.

Thanks.

It's good to be here.
