Show Notes
Join Jim and Greg for the Friday 3 Martini Lunch as they dig into much better than expected job numbers in August, the many bizarre facts and twists in the Lindsay Clancy case, Fox News dismissing Maria Bartiromo, and what they'll be doing for their Labor Day special.
First, they eagerly welcome much better than expected jobs numbers from August - more than three times what the experts expected. But they also note record high diesel prices and what that could mean for the prices we pay.
Next, they wade through the facts, the hysteria, and bizarre laws in the Lindsay Clancy trial in Massachusetts. Jim and Greg also comment on Clancy being the latest to develop an intensely devoted fan club. What is wrong with these people?
Then, they react to Fox News abruptly firing Maria Bartiromo. Additional reporting suggests Bartiromo wanted to do reports on China and the 2020 elections and persisted after executives rejected her request. Jim states Fox News paid a steep price already for 2020 election reporting. They also note speculation that Bartiromo might be President Trump's next press secretary.
Finally, Jim and Greg offer a quick preview of their Labor Day special on Monday.
