Full Show For Tuesday July 14 2026

We open with Philadelphia baseball heartbreak after Jordan Walker storms past Kyle Schwarber in the Home Run Derby final, while the crew unloads on the magenta bonus ball and Netflix’s crowded broadcast. Dawn Stensland brings the heat forecast, President Trump’s Strait of Hormuz announcement, a four-person playground shooting in Southwest Philadelphia, the arrest of a 14-year-old in the killing of pizza delivery driver Anshul Kuncha, a Glenside driver accused of intentionally striking a cyclist, and the microbursts that leave parts of the region cleaning up before the All-Star Game. The Big Take centers on the fatal ICE shooting of Joan Sebastian Guerrero in Biddeford, Maine. We examine the disputed facts, witness accounts, protests outside Senator Susan Collins’ office, the response from Maine Senate candidate Nirav Shah, calls to abolish ICE, and the crew’s argument that drivers who put officers in danger face deadly consequences. From there, we challenge CNBC’s list of the ten worst states to live in, compare it with domestic migration data, and ask why Americans keep moving toward Tennessee, Texas, the Carolinas and other states that CNBC places near the bottom. The Cut Sheet covers Darline Graham Nordone’s appointment to finish her brother Lindsey Graham’s Senate term, the coming South Carolina special election, the SAVE America Act, the Freedom 250 Grand Prix in Washington, the North Philadelphia delivery-driver murder, a Bucks County dating-app break-in, Zohran Mamdani’s comments about New York rape statistics, and four-year-old Roman Butzlaff bringing his neighborhood together one wave at a time. Matt Rooney arrives late for Rooney Tuesday, joins the Lindsey Graham discussion, reacts to Fight Club and a New Jersey daycare accused of giving children melatonin, and stays as the show learns listener Christopher Forsythe is the victim in a South Whitehall house fire. Dawn’s Big Three closes the program with cooler inflation data, a Canadian woman accused of striking a teen over pro-Trump clothing, animals rescued from a sweltering U-Haul, and fresh excitement for IndyCars racing down Pennsylvania Avenue.
