About Average Joseph Podcast

Hey everyone! My name is Joseph Carter. I have spent most of my life trying to understand the world we live in. My journey has introduced me to faith, military service, a career in mental health, and huge servings of humility as a result of various trials, failures, time spent living life on life's terms. Despite what many would consider a successful life, I find myself realizing more and more that my place in this world is... well - average, and I'm ok with that. I have learned to enjoy what I enjoy, and I find contentment in being able to share these experiences with others. Which brings me to this podcast. As a therapist, I have learned that listening and asking the right questions, with the simple intention to understand, is in fact valuable. For me, this podcast is another way I can share this experience with others. I am simply an average Joe that wants to listen, learn, and facilitate this process for others. So feel free to stick around, and hopefully we can learn together!

Kailey McMurtry joins Joseph in the studio the day after they got back from Salem, Massachusetts.

They also get into the Salem witch trials (John Proctor, Giles Corey, and the girls who made it all up) and a real question that came out of the Annabelle visit: can a Christian be possessed?

   Average Joseph Podcast E38: James Comer, Chairman, House Oversight Committee

   E38: Congressman James Comer, Chairman of the House Oversight Committee Monroe County’s own Congressman James Comer sits down in the Average Joseph studio for a wide-ranging conversation about what the House Oversight Committee actually does, what ten years in Washington have taught him, and whether he’ll run for governor of Kentucky. Comer describes the committee’s job as rooting out waste, fraud, abuse and mismanagement in the federal government. He explains the difference between serving as ranking member and as chairman, which comes down to subpoena power. He walks through the committee’s investigation into welfare fraud in Minnesota and the questions it has raised about Rep. Ilhan Omar, and gives his view on why Medicaid fraud ends up hurting the people the program is meant to serve, including patients and doctors here in Kentucky. As a combat veteran, Joseph asks about the Afghanistan withdrawal and what the investigation found. Comer explains why the military is so difficult to oversee under any administration. The two also discuss exit strategy, Vietnam, Iran, and how drones are changing warfare. Comer also talks frankly about how Congress works today: the “firebrands” playing for viral moments, the 218-vote math, why the Senate moves so slowly, and the lame-duck rush to pass one giant bill before Christmas. Before he heads to the Monroe County Chamber of Commerce, he addresses the encouragement he’s getting to run for governor in 2027. In this episode: What the House Oversight Committee does, and why subpoena power matters The Minnesota welfare fraud investigation Medicaid fraud and its effect on eligible patients and providers Accountability for the Afghanistan withdrawal Iran, drones, and the problem of exit strategy Why Congress has become more partisan, and the role of social media How a bill actually becomes law, and why it stalls in the Senate A possible 2027 run for governor of Kentucky Manufacturing, NAFTA, and Monroe County’s economy 🎙️ Average Joseph Podcast: real conversations with the people who shape Monroe County and beyond. #AverageJosephPodcast #JamesComer #HouseOversight #Kentucky #MonroeCountyKY #Congress #Veterans #Podcast
