  • Independence Day 2025: What We Love About America
    2025/07/04
    Join Jim and Greg as they honor America on its 249th birthday by reflecting on what they love about the United States. Originally aired in 2021, they each extol three things they deeply appreciate about our nation.

    First, Jim focuses on the incredible variety of places to live in the U.S. Whether you like big cities, rural areas, or somewhere in between, you can find your sweet spot somewhere in this country. Greg heaps praise upon the founders and specifically the Declaration of Independence, which radically and boldly proclaimed our rights come from God and our government gets its power from the people.

    Next, Jim reflects on his time living in Turkey and how being in that country or any other country helps you appreciate what we have in America even more. Greg is grateful for the example America set that attracted our ancestors and so many others to leave everything and come - legally - to the U.S.

    Finally, Jim applauds the great people you meet in every corner of the U.S. Yes, there's even some nice ones in and around Washington. Greg points to the incredible physical beauty of our land from coast to coast.

  • Martinis We Almost Missed: The Voter ID Mandate, Florida vs. New York, Tim Walz & China
    2025/07/03
    Join Jim and Greg as they head into Independence Day by looking at stories they would have chosen for martinis in recent weeks if huge news events had not intervened. Today on 3 Martini Lunch, they discuss good news in an unlikely place in the quest for building trust in elections. They also react to the very different track records for Florida and New York over the past 25 years, and Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz's disturbing affection for China.

    First, they look at polling showing a strong majority of people in California supporting laws requiring people to prove their citizenship before they can vote. But they also scratch their heads as Nevada's Republican governor vetoes a Voter ID bill because of other provisions in the bill he doesn't like.

    Next, they look at data showing the stark difference in how much New York and Florida are spending per capita on programs like education and Medicaid. Despite spending almost three times more than Florida per pupil, New York students fared far worse in reading and math. They also consider how the populations of the two states are trending in very different directions.

    Finally, they dig into why Gov. Walz would suggest China has surpassed the U.S. and other nations as having the most moral authority to broker calm in the Middle East. Walz said this just after Israel's airstrikes began three weeks ago. What does Walz fail to understand about the Middle East and why is he so fond of Communist China?

  • Kamala's Cali Conundrum, "Begone!" Bass Tells ICE, YOLO Factory Fireworks Fiasco
    2025/07/02
    Join Jim and Greg's substitute, Craig Collins as they prepare for the Independence Day holiday with this all-California edition of 3 Martini Lunch. Today, they are pleased to see a recent poll suggesting that Kamala Harris is not an intimidating Democratic nominee in the 2026 governor’s race, they are amused by LA Mayor, Karen Bass's refusal to meet with ICE agents while telling them to go home, and they are wishing to reenact action films with California's recent firework factory explosion.

    First, they speculate about a recent poll which asked people if they would vote for Kamala Harris if they had a choice between her and a generic Republican candidate. Shockingly for Kamala and for California, Jim notes 41-percent would vote for her while 39-percent would vote Republican with the other 20-percent being undecided or not voting. Jim and Craig are unsure if Kamala will even choose to run, though.

    Next, Jim and Craig wonder where Bass wants ICE to go when she refuses to meet with them and tells them to go home. Aren't they already home? Recent Democratic commentary about ICE is laced with insurrectionist language, but Jim calls Bass's bluff arguing she is "talking big" but will not cross ICE when it comes down to it.

    Last, they are ecstatic about the recent explosion of a fireworks factory -- in YOLO, California of all places. Because nobody was hurt, they joke that every building demolition ought to involve fireworks. Jim and Craig find it reminiscent to a scene from The Naked Gun, and both wish they could have been there to witness it.
