Episodes
One of the primary duties of government is to help prevent and fight fires. The more we know about the Los Angeles fires which caused the loss of more than 12,000 homes the more we realize how inept the entire Los Angeles DEI leadership was and is. Fresno Land in a story this week also exposed how the US Forest Service refused to allow a controlled burn last year which would have prevented the tragic loss of our ancient ...
What does living in a communist nation look like? Can conservatives in the valley change the outcome of the "special election" in November. Is there a solution to homelessness? What legislation has passed in California this year and how will it effect you? We discuss all of this and more on this week's Real Talk. Real Talk is the Right Side of Real Estate.
What does a government shut down mean for Real Estate? Did the Democrats "step" in it. Can Doge cuts now be made permanent? Is it fair to ask a general in the military to be physically fit? Do we need dudes in dresses in our military? We discuss all of this and more on this week's Real Talk. Real Talk is the Right Side of Real Estate
Comey gets charged for the least of his crimes. Newsom signs bills allowing drilling in Kern County and breaking all local control over apartments being built in California cities. Interest rates remain in the low 6's. We discuss all of this and more on this week's Real Talk. Real Talk is the Right Side of Real Estate.
Jimmy Kimmel was suspended because of a lack of audience and poor judgement. Good riddance. The left doubles down on the rising sea level claim after a Dutch study of 150,000 locations around the world over a 125 year period reveals that there is no increase in the gradual rise of the seas. There are now more than 400 bills on Newsom's desk. Which ones will he sign? We discuss all of this and more on this week's Real ...
These are my thoughts about the assassination of Charlie Kirk. This is not a time to hate. This is a time to heal. This is a time to be strong. A time fight back against the evil overtaking our world. I hope you listen and share your thoughts with me about this.
This week's Real Talk was recorded before the assassination Charlie Kirk. One of Charlie's last appearances before his death was in Visalia. The protestors outside called Charlie a pedophile for believing in the sanctity of human life. Charlie joked that we need better protestors in Visalia. Charlie was an unwavering champion of human life both born and unborn.
The Trump administration has cut over $400 million in Federal funding from the Morro Bay Condor Cuisanart wind farm hopefully putting this ill conceived project to death before it starts. California's "agricultural equity" advisors make plans to give state land to minorities to create more minority farmers in the state. Newsome and the left claim that Trump's plan is to have ICE and the National guard surround poling pla...
Trump proposes partial Federal Ownership of companies given Federal grants. The High Speed Choo Train to nowhere has a new plan and still no money. Forget Los Angeles to San Francisco. Let's go from Palmdale to Gilroy! More high ranking Leftists are being charged with mortgage fraud for claiming two principal residences. We discuss all of this and more on this week's Real Talk. Real Talk is the Right Side of Real Est...
Cleaning up Washington DC. Both the swamp and the city itself. Why does the left hate the idea of safe cities? Will interest rates on mortgage go lower now that the Feds have signaled an upcoming rate cut? Will Newsom really stop the adoption of new building codes to allow LA to rebuild? Hint, he hasn't stopped them yet and LA is not rebuilding. We discuss all of this and more on this week's Real Talk. Real Talk is ...
"Experts" at UC Riverside have proven once again that legless spiders are deaf. You may have been under the misunderstanding that residential real estate prices were stabilizing and inventory was increasing in the San Joaquin Valley because of high home prices and high interest rates. This is so wrong according to the "Experts". The change in the market has actually been caused by subsidence from over pumping our ground...
The Trump Administration is trying to stop the leasing of Federal "lands" to build massive wind farms. This includes the largest wind farm project ever approved in the United States off the California coast near Morro Bay. The project includes 300 one thousand foot tall "Condor Cuisanart" towers. The area of the Pacific Ocean leased is the size of the city of Los Angeles. Each tower must be anchored to the sea bottom in...
Major changes are coming to the EPA restoring many property rights and stopping the Federal Government for intervening in consumer decisions. These changes will allow much needed changes to the electric grid with reliable energy sources instead of just intermittent green energy. The left is gnashing their teeth over these proposed changes. CO2, which is the gas of life, will no longer be considered a life harming pollut...
Newsom is trying to ban the sale of Tesla's in California. Newly released documents prove the deep state in conjunction with the Democrats and their allies in the media lied in an effort to throttle the first Trump presidency. Nobody will go to jail for this and the leftist press will continue to hide the truth. The EPA moves further towards the rejection of the rules declaring CO2 pollution. We discuss all of this and...
Does lying on a mortgage loan application lead to jail time? Adam Schiff is about to find out. If NPR and PBS can't survive without taxpayer money nobody will miss them. If you are thinking about getting solar for your home now really is the time to investigate the costs and the benefits. The 30% tax credit will be gone after this year. We discuss all of this and more on this week's Real Talk. Real Talk is the Right ...
Leftist politicians are so busy spending tax payer money saving the world that they can't be bothered to provide the basic services that we expect from government. Things like well maintained roads, additional water storage for drinking and growing food, public safety, secure borders and even working fire hydrants to fight fires when they occur. Their so called cheap free "green" energy policies have caused California to...
What a wonderful country this is! California legislature backs off on some anti property rights bills. The Federal Reserve is like all of the elite expert class. Wrong on almost all things and predictions. Enjoy your holiday weekend.
Public policy effects house prices and quality of life. California is on the wrong track. We focus on the what is happening in California on this week's Real Talk.
The Supreme Court rules that not all experts are to be believed. And certainly not the experts who claim the puberty blockers given to young children don't cause any medical harm and are completely reversible. Those trying to rebuild in Los Angeles are finding that there is no fast track. It turns out that the removal of dams releasing massive amounts of sediment into the rivers kills all the fish. The experts predicted...
Trump administration reverses order requiring "Equitable Treatment for Fish". For "No Kings Day" I will celebrate Christ our Lord and the creator of this world and the universe. The mostly "Peaceful Protestors" in Los Angeles stage cinder blocks, bricks and brought sledge hammers and face masks to the protest. We discuss all of this and more on this week's podcast. Real Talk is the Right Side of Real Estate.
