Welcome to The Megyn Kelly Show, live on Sirius XM channel 111 every weekday at noon east. Hey everyone, I'm Megyn Kelly. Welcome to The Megyn Kelly Show and today's AM special episode. Today we're going to discuss the curious case of Carlos Watson. This holiday season, millions of families across America will rely on credit card rewards to visit their loved ones.
But according to our sponsor, the electronic payments coalition, DC politicians are trying to pass a bill that would lead to the end of credit card rewards. What? They say the Durbin-Marshall credit card bill would mandate credit cards run on alternative networks, not the trusted and stable networks you probably use today.
And they say there's no guarantee that the convenience, zero liability fraud protection and rewards programs you know and love will remain. The Electronics Payments Coalition says corporate megastores will make more money while you sacrifice your payment convenience, rewards, and peace of mind.

Like, what's his show? It's on YouTube. Oh, it's exploding. It's big. You know, you, you should, you should go on. So I did what I always do in these situations.
And I had Abby, my assistant look into whether this is a real person with a real show. And is this something I should consider? And this is a montage of people he's had on his shows over the years. But this is a sampling that represents what we found when we started looking into who is Carlos Watson and who does he typically interview? Let's play SOT50.
Hey, Matthew. Carlos, how are you? I'm good, man. Trying to get my eight seconds on the bull like everybody is. Hey, Scarlett, how are you?
Hey, how's it going?
Welcome to the Carlos Watson Show. Thank you for joining me. You bet.
