Show Highlights

Dr. Kelly Victory and Steve House

01:10 In this first segment, John Rush, Dr. Kelly Victory, and Steve House discuss the inefficiency of omnibus bills and the hidden agendas baked into massive legislation. They tackle healthcare challenges, including regulatory hurdles, the role of pharmacy benefit managers, and inflated costs. The conversation shifts to the unrealistic promises of political campaigns and the slow-moving wheels of government, focusing on setting reasonable expectations for new administrations. They also examine the lack of accountability in Congress and the barriers preventing highly capable individuals from entering politics.
16:37 The conversation continues with a dive into the recent retraction of a paper critical of hydroxychloroquine and other COVID-19 treatments, shedding light on bias in medical publications and Big Pharma’s influence. They further explore the suppression of alternative COVID-19 treatments like ivermectin and hydroxychloroquine, financial incentives driving hospital decisions, and the controversial promotion of drugs like Remdesivir. The discussion also turns to California’s proactive state of emergency declaration for bird flu, highlighting its minimal human impact and potential economic consequences for poultry and beef prices. Lastly, they advocate for the elimination of time changes and even time zones to enhance efficiency, reduce costs, and simplify scheduling.
38:00 In their final segment John Rush, Dr. Kelly Victory, and Steve House discuss San Francisco’s controversial hiring of a “fat positivity expert,” critiquing the avoidance of honest conversations about the health risks of obesity. They highlight the medical consequences of obesity, the societal normalization of unhealthy lifestyles, and the need for personal responsibility and actionable support for weight loss. Drawing parallels between obesity and other addictions, they stress the importance of cultural shifts, such as prioritizing movement, reducing food-centric social interactions, and addressing metabolic syndrome to improve mental and physical health. Ultimately, they call for empowering individuals through honest discussions and practical solutions to lead healthier lives.

HOUR 2

01:44 Owen Miller V.P. of the American Suppressor Association Social media hysteria has unsurprisingly generated significant misinformation in the aftermath of the tragic death of United Healthcare CEO Brian Thompson, which could undermine the rights of millions of Americans.

HOUR 3

Interview with Kurt Rogers, Affordable Interest Mortgage. He discussed key topics related to mortgages and home financing. They explored why mortgage rates don’t always drop when the Federal Reserve lowers rates, how stable or rising rates might influence home values, and whether now is a good time to refinance, given current rates, home prices, and stagnant income growth. Kurt explained the reasons behind the influx of calls borrowers receive after applying for a mortgage and offered insights into how companies obtain personal information.

Additional topics included Kurt’s process for working with clients, factors determining the mortgage rates he quotes, and whether the time taken to close a loan impacts the rate. Kurt addressed the costs of preapproval for purchasing or refinancing and provided guidance on buydowns, advising first-time homebuyers on whether to wait for rates to drop or take advantage of such options.

For those transitioning from self-employment to W-2 employment, Kurt explained its effect on qualifying for loans. He also highlighted what to consider when evaluating advertised low rates to ensure they are legitimate. Finally, he tackled the challenges self-employed individuals face when qualifying for loans, particularly how reducing taxable income through deductions can impact their loan eligibility.
