Sean Burke Show

Sometimes I just can't sit back and let it all happen without pointing out the BS, and putting a bit of truth on the line. Today's topics: G7, the media, Kate Spade, Social Security running out of money, national debt, truth and lies, the Feds allowing legalized marijuana, and more.

On today's show I talk about new information released on Purdue Pharma, and what they knew early on about their "miracle" drug called Oxycontin that has greatly contributed to the opioid crisis in our country. Also, who doesn't want the U.S. to make nice with N. Korea, Roseanne crushing the cast and crew of her show, the new news about the unemployment rate, and (uh-oh) why what you put in your recycling bin at home may change very soon. And more.

Another school shooting - what drives seemingly good, friendly people to gun kids and teachers down? My full response. As well as my comments on Alexa, Netflix being valued as much as Disney, Starbucks opening their bathrooms to everyone, Monsanto on the ropes in a current court case, the NFL's ban on kneeling during the national anthem, and Alex Jones being sued for defamation. And more.

Our privacy is slipping away, but what can we do about it, and how bad is it getting really? On today's show I interview Patrick Alach, a privacy expert, about the Facebook uproar, what a "reasonable expectation of privacy" is and how that standard might change in the near future, and what we can ultimately do to protect the little privacy we still have.

I run through a lot of the headlines on today's show including Iran and Israel going at each other, the US bowing out of the Iran Nuclear Agreement, North Korea, Wells Fargo, Michael Cohen, Starbucks' deal with Nestle, Seattle's idiotic tax on employees, DNA being used to sell anti-depressants, and California mandating solar panels on new homes.

Today I discuss the Rudy Giuliani Sean Hannity interview (one of those amazing things in life that happen unexpectedly!) Also, who is going to try and stop the end of the Korean War? The unemployment rate is so low, some towns around the US are offering land if you'll move there. Is it okay for teachers to strike? Why don't we educate our kids on the massive debt our government is building up that they'll have to deal with? Will cable companies be extinct soon? And more.

Today I talk about many topics including antidepressants, Trump, North Korea, what's happening in the economy, ISIS and my hope for the future.

Could Trump possible negotiate with North Korea to end the Korean War? How would that effect his chances of being reelected in 2020? Is Kim Jong-un really serious? Also, an update on Amazon, what happened to Philip Morris the other day, how on earth is it that we wage war, and examples of large amounts of money (more than they even ask for) being given to new startups.

We've all heard about weaponized flying drones run by pilots thousands of miles away. But how about autonomous weaponized drones that fly, travel over land and in the sea? Weapons that act on their own once released to seek out and destroy. A reality on Earth today and I talk to an expert by the name of Arthur Holland Michel to find out more about them.

Our privacy is slipping away, but what can we do about it, and how bad is it getting really? On today's show I interview Patrick Alach, a privacy expert, about the Facebook uproar, what a "reasonable expectation of privacy" is and how that standard might change in the near future, and what we can ultimately do to protect the little privacy we still have.
