Episode Transcript

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 that we'll have on everyday Americans. Author,
investment banker, consumer advocate, analyst, and trader Chris Markowski.

Speaker 2 (00:16):
Yes, and PR and PBS should be shut down. Oh
spare me, spare me, Big Bird, Oscar and the Cookie
Monster and Ernie Bird all that stuff. They're going to
be fine. Okay, They're going to land on their feet,
mark my words. They will. These outlets should have gone

(00:36):
away a long long time ago. And quite frankly, the
people working at those outlets they're so arrogant. They're so
if you watched it all the hearings yesterday, I mean,
it's just honestly, it's almost like that they act like
that there's some sort of royalty for crying out loud.

(01:00):
Know that they're they're entitled to have these positions and
they can do with it whatever they want. I mean,
that was that was the basic rub that I got
listening to these uh these people being interviewed MPR CEO
Catherine Maherr, PBS c O Paula Kerger testifying about the

(01:20):
uh they call it the alleged bias content. Stop saying alleged. Okay,
every single one of their editors that they have is
a Democrat, a left winger. I've remember, and I've told
this story before. You know, when I used to I

(01:42):
used to do radio rows back in the day. This is,
you know, pretty much prior to podcasts and all that
stuff and the changeover in media. Radio rows at political
conventions and augurations, whatever it may be. And you know
you watch NPR roll in there, NPR role there. You
know they're they're set up. It was the most advanced.

(02:03):
It was crazy, and I was just we're laughing all
of us that actually have to work in the real
world based upon costs and saying, this is how our
tax dollars are being spent. I mean, massive staffers, televisions
everywhere with the clock. I mean we're all working off
our laptops and a small little com Rex box. And
I'm talking some of the biggest radio shows in the country,

(02:25):
Hannity and Boarts Back, and I mean all this. I mean,
it's it's gross, and it's just how our tax dollars
are being used. If you were so necessary, if you're
so necessary, have a go at it. Okay, you're you're
telling us that these things are we have to have

(02:46):
these things there are it's going to be terrible. If
you give me a break, then then you know, have
commercials survive like everybody else is trying to survive at
this point in time. There is better you is for
for there's taxpayer dollars in this. They are worse uses,
of course, but they're most certainly is better. And when

(03:08):
it comes time to cleaning house, when you've got a
nation to thirty six trillion dollars in debt, yeah yeah,
we don't need you anymore. Watchdog on Wall Street dot
