John Wayne's Surge Protector podcast is two guys discussing the world around us on a twice weekly basis. We try to look at things that we think are huge deals and sometimes those items are also flying under the radar for a lot of other media channels. Having known each other for many years some of the jokes you hear may not come off as jokes. Keep listening and you will get in the loop soon enough as well. We have a link to leave any feedback in most of the episodes so don't hesitate to reach out.

This week's "Who Said It" involves some unemployment math that is either very creative or very confused — we'll let you decide which.
Tesla's making moves for reasons that sound better than they actually are, SpaceX keeps climbing in ways that have nothing to do with rockets, and the White House just launched a new financial product for kids that raises some very interesting questions about who actually gets to pick the winners.
Ukraine had arguably its most productive week of the war — multiple high value targets, some very satisfying footage, and a development near a very famous bridge that has us reaching for the good glasses. Russia meanwhile is having serious supply problems that are showing up at the pump in ways that would make even the most patient driver lose their mind. Steven Seagal is also moving, if you're in the market.
Back home, Trump vetoed a bill so bipartisan the numbers will make your head spin — and once you hear what was actually in it, the veto becomes one of the harder things to explain to his own base. There's a new piece of décor on the White House that's giving us very specific historical flashbacks. Ken Paxton was caught on camera doing something that requires some context about his personal life. And the Freedom 250 State Fair happened — sort of. The full story involves generators, a sunny day cancellation, a very telling reflection in a pair of mirrored sunglasses, and a MAGA influencer who is going to have a very bad few months.
Oh, and Mitch McConnell might be dead. Happy Tuesday.
