Welcome to sideline sanity with me, Michelle Tofoya, sponsored by Legacy Precious Metals.

There has never been a better time to invest in precious metals.

Don't you know it?

Great supporter of this show, and they are a great supporter of anyone who calls and ask questions about how they might put gold

Protect your long-term wealth. Go to legacy p.m. Investments.com. Coming up, Michael Hartney is with

the Hoover Institution on the campus of Stanford University, and he is a

researcher into schools, education, and more importantly, teachers unions, and how they've become so

political and how it's damaging our schools. The examples are off the charts. You need to hear some of his

stories. You need to understand what he's learned in his research and how you can actually do

something about it. You're not helpless. You are not helpless. But it's good to get some really

well-researched guidance in really simple terms.

Michael Hartney will give it to us right after this.

For nearly three decades, she's reported the action from the sidelines.

She started very young.

She's covered the NBA, NFL, Olympics, and the college football and basketball national championships.

And now, during these insane times in our world, Michelle Tofoya thinks we need a serious dose of sanity.
