Episode Description: Jessica B. Harris may have been born and raised in New York City, but she has Tennessee roots through her father and has spent much of her life split between homes in the Northeast and the South – specifically New Orleans. For more than fifty years, she has been a college professor, a writer, and a lecturer, and her many books have earned her a reputation as an authority on food of the African Diaspora, as well as a lifetime achievement award from the James Beard Foundation. A few years back, Netflix adapted her book, High on the Hog: A Culinary Journey from Africa to America , into a 4 part docuseries. And I’m very proud to say that she’s a longtime contributor to Southern Living with a regular column called The Welcome Table. This episode was recorded in the Southern Living Birmingham studios, and Sid and Jessica talked about her mother’s signature mac and cheese, the cast-iron skillet she’d be sure to save if ever her house were on fire, and her dear friend, the late New Orleans chef Leah Chase.

From Chernobyl myths to Navy truth, it’s time to wake up: ignorance isn’t bliss—it’s expensive. www.watchdogonwallstreet.com…

In this episode of Watchdog on Wall Street , we take a hard look at how corporate giants like General Motors are bending the knee to whichever political wind is blowing—left, right, or upside down. Mary Barra plays the DC game like a pro, flipping from Trump’s tariffs to Biden’s EV mandates and back again, all while pocketing billions in subsidies and government favors. Is this capitalism? Or is it state-controlled cronyism wrapped in red tape? We connect the dots between appeasement economics, taxpayer-funded bailouts, and the revolving door of political power that’s dictating how American businesses run. From tariffs to tax credits, climate goals to corporate virtue signals—this is the true cost of letting Washington call the plays. Because when CEOs take orders from politicians, we’re not in a free market anymore. We’re in something else entirely. Tune in. www.watchdogonwallstreet.com…

Andrew Cuomo wants $20/hour by 2027. A self-proclaimed socialist says $30 by 2030. What’s next—$50? $100? Free caviar with every paycheck? In this no-BS episode of Watchdog on Wall Street , we torch the fantasy economics driving minimum wage hikes and expose the real-world fallout: lost jobs, closed restaurants, and once-vibrant NYC neighborhoods turned into ghost towns of Walgreens and "For Lease" signs. With cultural jabs from Coming to America to Seinfeld , this episode brings the heat on why top-down wage mandates don’t lift people up—they just price them out. Want to help workers? Let the market breathe. Want to destroy businesses? Keep playing pretend economics. Tune in and get real. www.watchdogonwallstreet.com…

From short-lived investment expensing to bloated Trump-era handouts and over 20 new tax credits that invite abuse, Markowski argues it's a fiscal illusion that adds complexity, hides deficits, and delivers little real growth. If it’s such a great idea, he asks—why not make it permanent? www.watchdogonwallstreet.com…

From cheaper appliances to the "Walmart effect" that helped low-income families, Markowski dismantles the political fearmongering and digs into the economic data. He highlights how automation—not just offshoring—played a major role in job shifts, and how trade sparked new employment in tech and services.

Now, even he sees the writing on the wall. In this brutally honest segment, we dive into the absurdity of a former White House budget director confessing he "grew skeptical" of deficit concerns—while America spent trillions it didn’t have. With the dollar losing its edge, debt soaring, and politicians from both parties dodging accountability, it’s time to call it what it is: economic malpractice. Printing money isn’t strategy—it's a tax. A quiet, hidden tax that punishes every saver, earner, and investor. Wake up, Washington. This isn't complicated—it's just math. www.watchdogonwallstreet.com…
