Joe Darro is a Vegas legend, playing piano and singing here since the 1950’s. At 85, he still sings and plays like a man half his age, and has played for everyone who’s anyone (even me). I swear, the man knows every song in any key. He also played with my dad (a trumpet player) […]
In fairness to the state of Nevada, this amount of unemployment is unprecedented, but I know people who haven’t gotten a DIME in over 8 weeks, and that doesn’t include the independent contractors. Subrina Hudson, Business Reporter for the Las Vegas Review Journal, joined me to discuss. She recently spoke with the head of DETR […]
I came across a very important book by a woman who has been involved with women in her younger years, became a Christian, and eventually married a man. The book is called “Born (again) This Way”, by Rachel Gilson. Her story is not quite as neat as that description sounds. Same sex attraction is treated […]
Dr. Dale Carrison was my guest for this podcast. He was the Chief of Emergency Medicine at UMC, Nevada’s busiest hospital, for decades. Now he’s still giving back, semi-retired but still on the front lines and training paramedics in Northern Nevada. He joined me for a chat about the Coronavirus, Covid-19, latest findings, effect on […]
Mayor Carolyn Goodman is being trashed in the press for an interview she did with CNN’s Anderson Cooper, who in my opinion was condescending, to say the least. He’s just another guy who’s not missing a check, while telling us to stay home. The Mayor has been a fierce defender of Vegas and free enterprise, […]
“A person’s own folly leads to their ruin, yet their heart rages against the Lord.” Proverbs 19:3 Here’s some breaking news: Our elected officials mostly suck. They’re often incompetent or power hungry, and the last thing most of them care about is YOU, at least until the next election. Yes, they have responsibilities as elected […]
I’ve been a fan of Dr. Meg Meeker for over 20 years, since I read her book “Epidemic: How Teen Sex is Killing our Kids”. She’s a pediatrician, a wife and mother, a speaker, and author of many fantastic books, the latest being “Raising a Strong Daughter in a Toxic Culture”. She is on the […]
In light of the #VegasShutdown that has so many people feeling like prisoners in their own homes, we are in need of a reset. We need to rethink everything; how we do business, what (should) matter to us, and WHO (should) matter to us. I think we can do it.
Along with everyone else who’s losing money in this #VegaShutdown, PERS, the Public Employees’ Retirement System will also lose money. Will they ask for tax increases to make up the deficit? And if so, will people who AREN’T government employees revolt? Victor Joecks, whose columns for the Las Vegas Review Journal often focus on Nevada […]
Sure, it’s understandable for people who don’t have faith to panic, but why are Christians terrified about the events surrounding the Coronavirus Outbreak? ? Proverbs 24:10 says “If you faint in the day of adversity, how small is your strength?” Yes, things seem to be spinning out of control, just in the last two weeks, […]
