National Review’s Radio Free California Podcast
National Review’s Radio Free California podcast is a show about the perilous state of the Golden State — and what that means for you, wherever you live.
Return of the Living Debt
David and Will discuss California’s looming pension disaster, Newsom’s economic record, the Paramount–Warner merger, social-media regulation, and the Nick Shirley Act.
In 1999, the last time California boosted the benefits it pays government employees – earlier retirements, richer retirements – financial disaster followed quickly. Now, state lawmakers want Newsom to try it again. We factcheck Newsom’s claims on jobs housing starts (terrible) and jobs (worse). Iowa’s AG sues California for blocking the Paramount-Warner merger. Now that he’s successful, Mark Zuckerberg says social media companies must be regulated. David and Will break down the Nick Shirley Act. Music by Metalachi.
