Welcome to The Weekly Top 3 - our look at the top 3 things on our mind this week - for the week of August 9, 2021.

The Weekly Top 3 is a regular weekly segment on The Michael Dukes Show. The Show broadcasts on FacebookLive and via streaming audio from the Show's website weekdays from 6–8am. I join Michael each week on Tuesday's show, from 6:20–7am, for a discussion between the two of us about the three issues.

This week our Top 3 issues are these: 1) the Governor shows some movement in the Administration's presentation to the Fiscal Policy Working Group, but we explain why, in our view, he's limiting the options too narrowly (2:05); 2) in his presentation to the Working Group, ISER head Ralph Townsend hits the right notes, but we question whether anyone is listening (17:37); and 3) we discuss some interesting conjecture around Oil Search's Pikka project, with some upsides & downsides for Alaska (25:17).
