    10 Oct 2026

  • They Paid the Bill

    They Paid the Bill
    9 Oct 2026

    Hey! I'd love to hear your thoughts, send me a voice note.

    Jim Rand looks at the October 9 New York Post editorial: New York securities profits hit $45.9 billion in the first half of 2026, up 51.3 percent, on pace for a record $90 billion, while Mayor Zohran Mamdani still treats a tax hike as the answer. The episode walks through the $7.8 billion Wall Street already sent the city, the Texas and Utah job gap, and Milton Friedman’s test — intentions are cheap, invoices are not — then sets the October 7 statement next to the same habit of moving the target. 🗣️ Check out other great shows! 🎙️ **The Odyssey: Short & Engaging Retellings** A modern, vivid retelling of Homer’s epic poem — one book at a time.
