America's Frontliners Podcast 19 June 2026

In this milestone 100th episode of America’s Frontlines: Colonel Denny and Skip tackle a question with enormous implications for America's future: Has free trade made the United States dangerously dependent on China? They examine the hidden costs of globalization, the decline of American manufacturing, and why tariffs, strategic industries, and greater economic self-sufficiency may be critical to the nation's long-term prosperity and security. Colonel Denny also reviews some of the hottest news stories affecting our daily lives, offering his perspective on the issues shaping America and the world. And, as always, he delivers another round of his trademark humor and one-liners to keep us smiling and in good spirits. Our featured guest is Paul Beran, Executive Chairman of the Veteran Legacy Foundation. Paul joins Colonel Denny to discuss America's Vet*Net and Veteran.Network, an online community dedicated to serving U.S. military veterans, their families, and all who support them. The platform provides information, resources, news, tributes, memorials, donor opportunities, and a place for veterans to reconnect with friends and comrades while preserving the legacy of those who served. And of course, we continue our tradition of revisiting key moments in military history from this point in time—helping us remember the events and sacrifices that shaped the nation we love and continue to defend. Join us for this special 100th episode as we celebrate an important milestone while exploring the issues, people, and history that continue to define America and the values we hold dear.
