This week on Flash Talks Cash, JoAnn "Flash" Fleming is once again joined by Andrew Newman, and they are talking about healthcare- specifically the new happenings with Obamacare.

Tune in to hear how some of the Supreme Court Justices weigh in on the bill, and how Andrew feels about it (hint: unconstitutional).

"I think employer-sponsored heath care is going to be defunct...it's too expensive for employers to pay for this. It's a very big perk they pay for- as they've done with pension plans through the years, they've now put the burden on the employees. More and more, the burden of the health insurance costs are going on the employees"

"You need the premiums from healthy people to offset the sickly people, so if this doesn't stop over time you're going to have fewer and fewer healthy people buying insurance, and it's going to be even more outrageously expensive and more difficult for Americans to get insurance."

Later, Mike Edison of The Mike & Judy Show stops in to chat with Patrick about his upcoming eBook, Bye Bye, Miss American Pie.

Tune in to hear Patrick and Mike discuss political satire, professional wrestling, and the lack of blueberries in blueberry muffins. This episode has been brought to you by White Oak Pastures.

"We definitely want to keep growing. From where we started to where we are now, we've gotten exponentially bigger and are able to sell a lot more cheese for the farms that we work with, and that's the basic goal. We just want to do the right thing and consider everything carefully."

"If farms need people to buy cheese, then I want [Saxelby] to be the one to buy that cheese."

"European cheeses were made out of necessity; American cheesemakers make what they like."
