Go to Grand Hotel, Cape May.com, and mark your calendar, August 15th, our next live show.

Let's go to the Chief Economist at the Heritage Foundation. God, I love saying that.

Dr. E.J. Antony, my man, local boy done good with that title,

Chief Economist. Pretty cool.

Richard, too kind. By the way, I think these intros get better and better. So I hope we can

keep doing the show for a really long time just because, like, really, it just gets a little

bit better every

time you're building up my ego happy to do it uh we would normally play your walk-up music but

desantis is out and he's useless anyway even if he was here so it's kind of irrelevant but um

but there you go so we're happy to have you i was you know i was at heritage was at Heritage last week. I was hanging out there. I did my show from there. And it's a nice place you guys got. I'm just saying.

Yes, it's not bad. Of course, I think our communications could use a little work because nobody told me you were here. Otherwise, I would have made it a point to come see you but yeah nice building well I should

be back there again in the next couple weeks so I'll make sure that I personally let you know

that I'll be there so you can pop in and in the Rush Limbaugh Studios I love how they name

that after Rush it's great talk to me about this steaming pile of of one big

beautifulness that nobody seems to be happy about that just left the Senate and is on the way to the House and nobody seems to be happy about it in the House.

And where does all this stand?

Oh, this is rough.

I don't know how they can make this work, honestly.
