Face It, You Can’t Afford to Eat Karel Cast 24-163 A new report is out about how much a family spends to eat in each state in the USA. It ranges from $211 per week, or $844 a month to over $300 a week, or $1200 a month. In CA it’s $297 a week and Nevada $295. What do you do when food costs as much as rent per month? Cut back, that’s what. So, what are you buying these days, and NOT buying. And is there any relief in sight for this? I’ve spent the last few days in depression, fear, anticipation...looking at various spots in the world I could flee to because of what’s happening in Washington. Is there a very real danger, or do I just need to get more involved in life and ignore what’s going on? The USA is going to swing hard right, but it’s done it before... Gladiator II is going to dominate the box office. Is this really the time for a film about blood lettings for an emperor and the blood lust of the people?

Are These The Last Holidays? Karel Cast 24-162 Thanksgiving is in 15 days, but what, exactly, are you thankful for this year? Families will be broken apart by politics. Money is so tight gifts may be sparse this season. Holiday feasts are almost too unaffordable to even plan. And yet, given what next year holds, are these the last holidays for America? Will it even be recognizable next year? Plus, People says John Krasinski is the sexiest man alive. Somehow, I just don’t. But what makes a man sexy? Or a woman? Is it really all looks? And, it’s screener season. And I’ve seen the cutest stop action movie that will make you ball your eyes out. And its stars are snails.

This time on Code WACK! Why have healthcare giants like United Health and Cigna been purging some of their commercial accounts and pivoting to government-funded programs like Medicare Advantage and Medicaid? How is this affecting patients? And what is the government doing about it? To find out, we spoke with Wendell Potter, a former health insurance industry executive turned whistleblower, the New York Times bestselling author of Deadly Spin and the president of the Center for Health and Democracy. He’s also the author of the Substack newsletter HEALTH CARE un-covered which chronicles out-of-control profiteering in U.S. health care, its impact on everyday Americans, and potential policy solutions.

Mainstream Media Dies Here's Why Karel Cast 24-161 KFI AM 640 Los Angeles is dying, as iHeart Media cuts five percent of its total workforce. MSNBC is down to under 600k viewers after the election. CNN, NBC, ABC News, all down. Why? I know. Cillian Murphy's new movie shines a light on a horrible Catholic Church tragedy. Now, the archbishop of Canterbury resigns over the handling of the sexual abuses. Can someone remind me why we allow this institution to exist?

RIP USA: The USA is Dead, Long Live 'Murika Karel Cast 24-158 Apathy won. Less than 1/4 of Americans want to turn their back on the Constitution and the rule of law, chose hatred, bigotry, fear and oligarchy. The environment lost. Decency, fairness, diversity, lost. Kindness, joy, a positive future of hope, lost. America is dead as the founder's vision fades away. We have two countries in one now; will we finally split? Or slip in to fascism without so much as a whimper.

How do some Australians, who have single-payer health care they call Medicare, view the American healthcare system? What do they think about the many people in America who need to have a job to get health insurance? Who set their wedding day with their health insurance in mind? Or who have health insurance but go bankrupt anyway, because it doesn't cover all their medical bills? To find out, we spoke to Australian Anna Candler, founder and CEO of The Circular Water Company. Through frequent visits to family in the U.S., Anna has gained firsthand insight into the stark differences between the Australian and American healthcare models. This is the second episode in a two-part series. Check out the Transcript and Show Notes for more!

THIS IS IT! Plus The Politics of a Murdered Squirrel Karel Cast 24-157 This is it. Election Day 2024. Will it be the fourth time that Trump and his party are rebuked? (2018 mid terms, 2020 Presidential, 2022 Mid Terms and now...?) And do we really expect them all to accept defeat if they lose? Peanut the squirrel was killed unjustly. But now, MAGA has made it political by saying his owner, Mark Longo, is a Trump supporter and this was done by the Democrats. Nothing could be further from the truth.

Here's the One Thing You Must Now Do Karel Cast 24-156 This is it. The Monday before the most contentious election in recent memory. Will the United States choose sanity, choose inclusion, or will we start our descent in to autocracy? There's only one thing left for you to do, outside of voting, and I'm going to tell you what it is. Also, I spent the weekend with a gun, pepper spray, and security at my building on alert. Why? Because some people really don't like what I say. I'll share with you the text messages I got on Friday. James Van Der Beek has colo-rectal cancer as so many people under 60 are now developing the disease. Why? That's simple, but you won't like the answers.

The Ghost of Trump Present Haunts Us This Halloween Karel Cast 24-155 What has American politics become? We have actual Presidential candidates leading press conferences from Garbage Trucks looking like Orange faced clowns. What must the world think? And how will History judge this era? Who were we before Trump? Who were the Germans before Hitler? Are we going to talk about Spain? 100 dead as they get one year of rain in one day, meanwhile the USA experienced it's driest October ever. Will we ever, really, truly do anything to help stop this? Halloween is here. A night of spooks and demons. It goes against Christianity to celebrate, but people do. Why? Why are we so fascinated with what happens after death instead of what we do in life?

Who Supports A Garbage Candidate? Karel Cast 24-154 Donald Trump's surrogates call Puerto Rico a floating pile of garbage. His followers call gays groomers, call Democrats socialists and pedophiles, they mock Black, Trans, Gay, they threaten the lives of those that disagree with them...but don't call them garbage as Biden did. Really? Seems to me only people with garbage attitudes would support a garbage candidate. Lay in dirt, get fleas. To Ozempic or not? If you were overweight, even just 30 pounds, would you take the drug? AND, scientists are again recommending to the US government that Americans eat less meat and sugar. So why won't those recommendations make it? The reason proves the point of my new book.

What's Behind The Rise Of Hatred In America Today? Really Karel Karel Cast 24-153 The biggest threat to the world that Donald Trump has always posed is not his policies, it’s the way he and his followers have now normalized hatred, bigotry and discord. His rally should have ended his campaign; it invigorated it. His surrogates have said things that are beyond the pale. He has said and done things that are just horrific. And yet, they are accepted. And this normalization is everywhere. On social media, everyone wants to fight, say horrible things about people they never met. Can we recover from this disease of hatred or has he unleashed a beast that will remain for a long, long time?

Climate and the U.S. economy are on the ballot; World on pace for significant and dangerous warming without faster action, U.N. report warns; PLUS: Biden cracks down on lead paint, a serious threat to America's children... All that and more in today's Green News Report!

Our ex-president is so secure in the knowledge that he will win election to the presidency that he is not even pretending to mount an actual campaign. Just rallies where the base swoons, and he sways—thirty-nine minutes of swaying in fact—instead of speaking. So convinced is he, that when he does speak, it’s only about his enemies (in case you’ve been living under a rock, that anyone who publicly disagrees with him. We take a look at that and some other peculiarities in today’s commentary. It’s short. I hope you’ll listen.

MAGA, Trump Display Their Hatred of Americans At Madison Square Garden Karel Cast 24-152 At any other point in our history, the political rally that Donald Trump held at Madison Square Garden would have ended his, or any other candidate's, campaign. The hatred, the bigotry, the racism and homophobia towards Americans not like them was on full display and they were not only unashamed, but reveled in it. At any other time the media would have put an end to Trump and his campaign the day after such an event. Instead, they empower him. The GOP and MAGA have become the most hateful, divisive party since Germany in 1940, and no one in the party does a thing. Why? I know. Billionaires that own media companies are now ruining Free Speech and mainstream media. How do we solve this crisis? The Ozempic Question raises its ugly head...to jab or not to jab?
