Goofy Award Winner

Mike spotlights the costs of the “who needs fact when I know I’m morally right” attitude so prominent today while top analyst, Greg Weldon makes a compelling case for gold. And don’t missed this week’ shocking stat – plus the goofy focuses on the biggest political story of the year.
