Scot Bertram

Hillsdale College Radio General Manager and Radio Free Hillsdale Hour host Scot Bertram fills in for Jim Geraghty on Thursday’s 3 Martini Lunch. Join Scot and Greg as they dig into a dose of economic sanity for AOC from Amazon’s Jeff Bezos, Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass wanting to “explore” non-citizen voting, the end of  Stephen Colbert’s awful late night show, and Congress once again trying to wreak havoc with our clocks.

First, they welcome Jeff Bezos explaining why just spending money doesn’t solve problems unless you have the right plan in place, why Amazon is far more competent than the government, and why Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez is clueless when she says no one can earn a billion dollars honestly.

Next, they chronicle Mayor Bass saying she is willing to explore non-citizen voting in LA. Scot explains how the left’s arguments about citizenship are wildly inconsistent. Greg believes the Democrats’ goals on this issue are crystal clear.

Then, as CBS prepares to air the final episode of The Late Show with Stephen Colbert tonight, Scot explains how Colbert not only ruined the show but the entire genre of late night television. Greg reminds us why CBS is really pulling the plug, no matter how much Colbert wants to portray himself as a martyr. And they note the end of CBS Radio after nearly a century of broadcasting.

Finally, they groan as the House of Representatives once again considers legislation to make Daylight Saving Time permanent. Scot and Greg explain why this is a terrible idea, what the better permanent time would be, and why we really shouldn’t change at all.
