You're listening to me for free right now, and that's awesome because more and more things aren't free right now.

I mean, think about all the things you're paying for daily, monthly yearly.

Well, here's something that won't add to that list, the free iHeartRadio app, podcasts, streaming music, digital radio.

All free, it's the future of audio and unlike almost everything else in your life right now,

except maybe air, it doesn't cost a dollar.

So take advantage of this, listen to everything you love on the iHeartRadio app for free.

This is the Tom Hartman program.

We have our really big shoe for you today.

We're going to start out in just a moment or two with Congressman Mark Pocan for the hour,

Representative Pocan, the former co-chair of the Congressional Progressive Caucus.

Now, a member in good standing of that caucus and representing the second district of Wisconsin

in the U.S. House of Representatives. He's on the Appropriations Education Labor Committee's

Pocan. House.gov is his website. You can tweet him at Rep Mark Pocan.

Congressman, welcome back to the program. I see that George Santos now has, he's on the House

Committee on Small Business and the House Committee on Science, Space and Technology.

Are you going to be on any of these committees with him?

No, it's interesting though. I mean, putting him on small business when, apparently, he's run a

scam business is very interesting. And you know, at least by putting him on space, I'm sure he's

claimed at some point he's an astronaut. So in some weird way, but I got the feeling this guy's

time is pretty short lived in Congress. I think he's just waiting to cut a deal to avoid

some prosecution. But in the meantime, I think we should enjoy every single minute.

Yeah, did you see the story about this disabled vet? Would George Santos?
