James Talarico Makes 'Biblical' Case for Socialized Medicine
3 Martini Lunch – Political Humor & CommentaryShow Notes
Join Jim and Greg for the Tuesday 3 Martini Lunch as they dig into Texas U.S. Senate candidate James Talarico grossly twisting scripture on health policy and more, new research showing that social media short videos are damaging our brains, the holdout Clancy juror speaking out for the first time, and the latest vicious attack ads.
First, they're disgusted by Talarico saying that Jesus Christ didn't charge people for healing them so somehow it's bad for doctors to do it. Jim and Greg correct Talarico on scripture and policy, but Jim warns Republicans about what he learned on his recent trip to Texas.
Next, they react to new research showing that short videos on TikTok, Instagram, and YouTube shorts are damaging our brains and especially our memories. Jim discusses the value of sustained focus on tasks and Greg condemns the algorithms and our inability to put the phones down.
Then, they applaud the holdout Clancy juror for speaking out and keeping the focus on the three small victims in the case instead of their murderer. However, they also hope he recedes from public view and is able to enjoy a normal life away from media scrutiny. Jim has a blunt message for the other jurors too.
Finally, Jim and Greg assess the latest attack ads against the Bears and Jets heading into Sunday's game.
