In this bonus edition of Andrew and Jerry Save the World, Andrew kicks things off with a recent radio interview featuring co-host Jerry Rogers. The two dive into key healthcare and policy issues, including why tariffs on pharmaceuticals won’t raise prices in the short term, the importance of fixing the "pill penalty" embedded in the Inflation Reduction Act, and how Pharmacy Benefit Managers (PBMs) continue to inflate drug costs. They also take on the growing push from some conservatives to restrict SNAP benefits in the name of nutrition—warning that it’s a slippery slope toward surveillance and government overreach.

Later in the episode, Andrew digs into the controversial Kilman-Abrego-Garcia case with guests Tim Head (Unified.US) and Will Chamberlain (Article III Project). They break down the facts, the legal realities of deportation policy, and whether Maryland Senator Chris Van Hollen may have violated the Logan Act in his advocacy abroad. It’s a wide-ranging, punchy episode that delivers facts, context, and a healthy dose of common sense.

In this episode, Andrew Langer sits down with economist and American Action Forum President Doug Holtz-Eakin for a wide-ranging conversation on recent economic policy developments and their potential consequences. Holtz-Eakin expresses skepticism over the Biden Administration’s latest trade and tariff policies—what some dubbed “Liberation Day”—arguing they amount to a $500–$600 billion tax increase with damaging implications for economic growth, inflation, and America’s farming sector.

The discussion pivots to regulatory policy, highlighting the staggering $1.8 trillion in regulatory costs added under President Biden, contrasted with the deregulatory success of the first Trump administration. Holtz-Eakin cautions against the current sequencing of economic policy—leading with tariffs instead of first tackling tax and regulatory reform—and emphasizes the importance of revisiting trade agreements to address unfair barriers facing American exporters, especially farmers.

They also unpack recent moves to reduce the federal workforce. Holtz-Eakin critiques past approaches but supports the current plan empowering agency heads to make strategic, legally compliant cuts. He debunks myths about federal employment levels, noting they remain close to Reagan-era numbers, and argues that downsizing can be done responsibly—citing the Clinton-era example of 400,000 job reductions without major disruption.

This is a must-listen for anyone interested in economic strategy, regulatory reform, and the inner workings of federal governance.
