Joining Kerby in-studio today is Dr. Merrill Matthews who is a resident scholar with the Institute for Policy Innovation, a research-based, public policy “think tank.” He will shed more light on the issue of Vice President, Joe Biden who is out promoting U.S. infrastructure improvement and expansion while the oil and gas industry is eager to spend its own money, not taxpayer dollars, doing just that: updating and expanding the infrastructure in order to get its products to refineries. In the second hour, we welcome Jason Scott Jones, a film producer, author, activist, and human rights worker. Jones is the Founder of HERO [Human-Rights Education and Relief Organization] a non-profit that promotes human dignity regardless of ability, age, status, race, or geography.
