The Financial Guys

Mike Lomas and Mike Sperrazza break down the latest developments surrounding escalating tensions with Iran and what it really means for the United States. The hosts push back on media narratives about a looming World War III, arguing that the economic and military imbalance between the U.S. and Iran makes a prolonged conflict unlikely. They also discuss the role of international allies, the impact on global markets and oil prices, and the broader ideological battle between Western values and radical extremism. Later in the episode, the conversation shifts to the Clintons, revisiting long-standing controversies and political accountability as the hosts weigh what it all means heading into the next election cycle.

This week on The Financial Guys Podcast, Mike Lomas, Mike Sperrazza, and Glenn Wiggle kick things off celebrating American gold medal winners who proudly represent the country—contrasting their grit and patriotism with what they see as media-driven negativity and political outrage. The guys dive into the education system and why more parents are turning to homeschooling, the chaos surrounding voter ID and fake IDs in a tech-driven world, and New York’s snow shoveling debacle as a case study in government incompetence.

They also tackle the Epstein list fallout, growing distrust in federal agencies, questions surrounding Iran and weapons of mass destruction, immigration enforcement, and internal Republican Party divisions heading into the midterms. From border security to inflation messaging, the hosts argue it’s time for clarity, accountability, and a serious course correction before voters head back to the polls.
