Alley and Pasero

Allen goes solo in this deep-dive into the Oregon Public Employee Retirement System (PERS). Is there a problem? What is it, and are we able to fix it? Join us again for the "right" talk from the "left" coast.

Jim is on sabbatical so Allen and James begin discussing Biden's State of the Union speech which dovetails into a broader discussion on taxation and the role of government in our lives. With vaccination rates passing 50%, and nearly 100% of the most vulnerable, Oregon is locking down again. Why? Join us for the "right" talk from the "left" coast.

Allen and James take a deeper dive into the Georgia election law and the false narrative being pushed by President Biden and the Democratic Party. Did you know that Portland is deputizing park rangers to help prevent gun violence? How's defunding the police coming along? Finally, we take a look at the Portland housing crisis and how supply-side economics might be the answer. Tune in for the "right" talk from the "left" coast.

Allen goes solo on this special Easter Sunday episode of Alley & Pasero. Allen takes a deep dive into the Georgia election bill SB202 and, surprise surprise, the media hype is grossly overstated. Did you know that the bill explicitly allows poll workers to set up water stations? Not from what the media would tell you. Take a listen for the "right" talk from the "left" coast.

Jim is back from sabbatical as the guys discuss COVID, guns, and the effect of the liberal education system. Our young people are being told by their teachers that the world will end in 10 years if we don't fix climate change, what happens when they realize they've been lied to? Why do those with the least experience with guns always end up writing gun laws? Tune in for the "right" talk from the "left" coast.

With Jim on extended sabbatical, Allen and James tackle the COVID pandemic and what the government is doing right/wrong. Joe Biden takes a stumble climbing the stairs to Air Force One, how long before he abdicates the presidency to VP Harris? We speculate about the Democrats' grand plan to install Shemia Fagan in the Governor's Mansion. Join us for the "right" talk from the "left" coast.

How bad has Oregon's COVID vaccine rollout been? Are you better off entering the do-loop black hole of the state vaccine website, or should you work your networking skills and make friends with someone at Safeway? What happens when government execution is so bad the only way to get services is to cheat the system? What's behind the sudden reversal from the Governor on reopening schools? Join us for the "right" talk from the "left" coast.

Should capitalism, racism and imperialism be lumped together? Is showing your work on a math test or getting the right answer reinforcing white supremacy in mathematics instruction? The Oregon Dept. of Education would like teachers to take a course that advocates for both. Biden and Trump bomb Syria, how does the media portray both actions? Can Bitcoin save the US Dollar? Tune in for the "right" talk from the "left" coast.

Oregon Dept. of Education promotes a course for teachers that talks about "dismantling white supremacy in math classrooms by visibilizing the toxic characteristics of white supremacy culture with respect to math" That might be enough for one show, but we also discuss GameStop part 2, the Oregon GOP and COVID vaccine rollout... Join us for the "right" talk from the "left" coast.

Welcome to "Conspiracy Theory Sunday"! Jim is out this weekend so Allen and James jump into many conspiracies floating around. Was there collusion by Hedge Funds to stop the meteoric rise of GameStop? Does Q-Anon control the Republican Party? What IS Q-Anon anyway? $1.9T stimulus has "passed", but where is it? Catch up with us for the "right" talk from the "left" coast.
