Summary
3 - Mike Opelka in for Zeoli this week. No dismemberment stories today. The bird flu that has passed to cattle has now jumped to our first human. No April fools joke.
320 - Caitlin Clark was unstoppable last night, and Kim Mulkey found herself in more hot water.
330 - Dr. Michael Roysen joins the program to discuss what is happening with the avian flu infecting our cattle and other mammals as of late. Will people trust a vaccine? How safe would this one be?
350 - A little social media check-in. Mike is skeptical over a new disease popping up before an election. He reads some stats on avian flu from other countries.
4 - Israel is under fire for killing aid workers in a strike at a hospital that was containing an Iranian general. Trump was in Grand Rapids, Michigan and gave a nice speech.
410 - Denver has been overrun with migrants, and now they are telling them to leave as there is no opportunity left for them there. They’ll even buy you a bus ticket.
420 - A famous atheist says he prefers to live in a majority Christian country rather than a Muslim one.
430 - Glenn Roper from the Pacific Legal Foundation joins the program to discuss election trends among states, including a race in Alabama that switched from red to blue. Roper discusses how a statute there is unconstitutional, even admitted by the governor, but the state continues to fight back against the case. Do you think the average citizen would know their state’s board has a racial quota?
450 - Yesterday marked the one year anniversary of the Bud Light - Dylan Mulvaney fiasco. So more, fake American hero content! Revisiting Kim Mulkey.
5 - Drive @ 5 - Will RFK Jr. draw more from Trump or Biden? Mike tends to lean towards Biden. He may not draw too much from the hardcore fanbases, but will he prevent either of the big two from getting 270?
510 - KT McFarland says that those abroad in Ukraine and Lithuania believe Trump will be re-elected here. RFK is trying to trigger a response from Biden.
520 - An update on Hunter Biden and his attempts to reject his tax charges.
525 - Sleepwalk with me, Mike Birbiglia’s event on the Dom Giordano Program is the prize this week as we discuss sleepwalking.
530 - Dr. EJ Antoni of The Heritage Foundation and in-house economist joins the program to first discuss sleepwalking before our bad economic policies. Tell us more about these so-called “Bidenvilles”, and how are the regulations and decisions to build luxury starter homes instead of normal ones driving up home prices with no buyers?
550 -. EJ sticks with us after the break.
6 - Not a lot of love between Biden and Hillary Clinton, but that didn’t seem to matter to her on Jimmy Fallon’s show. “Get over it” she says when asked about the quality of the two candidates. They really had to light up the “Applause” sign throughout the segment.
610 - “Little Fidel” Justin Trudeau is an up-talker and a snob.
620 - Why did Zeoli have to ruin Twister? Mike plays audio from the head of Greenpeace refuting that carbon emissions are detrimental to the environment.
630 - Jim Stovall joins us to discuss his new book coming out that talks about the language we use now. His incredible story is one to be marveled at.
645 - Rounding out the show with a recap of key topics. Is vaping douchey?
650 - The government has solved all of our problems.
