Speaker 1 (00:00):
The Watchdog on Wall Street podcast explaining the news coming
out of the complex worlds of finance, economics, and politics
and the impact it will have on everyday Americans. Author,
investment banker, consumer advocate, analyst, and trader Chris Markowski.

Speaker 2 (00:16):
Drone stories, all right, I have to chime in. It's
all I can stand. I can't stand is no more
tons of questions. People ask me what my thoughts are
on the drones and what do you think about this?
And what do you think about that? I don't know.
I've got to pull out the Nathan Lane character from Birdcage.

(00:38):
How do you think I feel? Confused? Bewildered people? I
don't know, okay? Or does anybody in the news media
on social media. I you know, the first first stories
coming out that there was some sort of Iranian mother

(01:00):
with these drones, and I was saying, I'm not buying that.
My first reaction when it came to the drone story
is this is our government doing something. This is our
government doing something, trying out some technology up to no good. Again.
You got mayors and various different municipalities in the state

(01:23):
of New Jersey freaking out about this or seeing them
go on the media. Who is this? Who owns the drones?
Russian drones are Anian drones. You know. The thing that's
the real story behind this drone story is not so
much the drones. It's the fact that we have little,

(01:46):
little to no belief at all and what the government
is telling us. You had you had Junkerby out there
yesterday basically giving some nonsensical explanation when it comes to this,
and the entire country is like, you know, doing that

(02:11):
that you know, coughing scene that they were doing with
an animal house originally there when they had that little
court thing going on. Well again, nobody believes the people
in Washington, d C. They're they're just not trustworthy. We
all take them, you know, to be full of it. This,

(02:33):
I mean, it's it's great that you know, people have finally,
you know, woken up and red piled whatever it may be,
to the the lies that were told on a regular basis.
But that damage needs to be repaired. It's not going
to happen overnight, It's not Would I much rather have

(02:54):
my government be honest and trustworthy? Yeah? I would. I
mean it's going to take some time. News me, that's
a whole other thing. I don't know if they'll ever
be able to make it back. But you got to
also understand the repercussions behind this. I mean, I know,
I brought up the little Boy who Cries Wolf. That

(03:15):
thing's real. I mean, if you know something, whatever, it
was Iranian drones with a mothership and all these issues
we have to deal with. People gonna be like, yeah, whatever, whatever,
we don't have any faith and trust in them anymore.
And that quite frankly, not so much to drones. That's

Cardiac Cowboys

Cardiac Cowboys

The heart was always off-limits to surgeons. Cutting into it spelled instant death for the patient. That is, until a ragtag group of doctors scattered across the Midwest and Texas decided to throw out the rule book. Working in makeshift laboratories and home garages, using medical devices made from scavenged machine parts and beer tubes, these men and women invented the field of open heart surgery. Odds are, someone you know is alive because of them. So why has history left them behind? Presented by Chris Pine, CARDIAC COWBOYS tells the gripping true story behind the birth of heart surgery, and the young, Greatest Generation doctors who made it happen. For years, they competed and feuded, racing to be the first, the best, and the most prolific. Some appeared on the cover of Time Magazine, operated on kings and advised presidents. Others ended up disgraced, penniless, and convicted of felonies. Together, they ignited a revolution in medicine, and changed the world.
