Join the Conversation at 303-477-5600 or text to 307-200-8222 Monday - Friday from 3 pm - 6 pm MT. HOUR 1 Hour 1 of https://RushToReason.com opens with a bold challenge: are we being told the full truth about our health—or just the convenient version? John Rush is joined by Dr. Kelly Victory, an independent physician and nationally recognized public health expert, for a wide-ranging and provocative conversation. Should some prescription drugs—like antibiotics—be available over the counter? Would it lower costs and restore patient freedom, or create new risks? Then the discussion pivots to hormone replacement therapy. Is declining testosterone or estrogen just “normal aging,” or are people suffering unnecessarily? And how do you pursue hormone therapy safely—without falling for clinic hype? The hour turns more intense as they examine rising cancer rates, particularly in younger adults. Is it a coincidence, lifestyle, COVID itself, or the mRNA shots? Dr. Kelly outlines concerns about immune disruption, lipid nanoparticles, and batch inconsistencies. What can people do now? Are antibody tests and certain supplements worth considering? If you’ve ever felt like key details are missing from the mainstream narrative, this episode asks the hard questions—without apology. Websites Mentioned * https://LabCorp.com * https://howbadismybatch.com HOUR 2 Hour 2 turns up the heat. John Rush welcomes Alvin Louie, President of Courage Is a Habit, for a tactical breakdown of what he calls “language deconstruction.” Are cultural debates—especially around transgender ideology—being won not by facts, but by redefining words? Alvin shares a provocative role-play and a six-month social experiment designed to expose what he believes are manipulative debate tactics. How do you avoid getting dragged into the “swamp” and losing moral clarity? Then John pivots to media accountability. With the FCC reportedly scrutinizing The View over equal-time rules, what exactly is the Fairness Doctrine—and could it apply to late-night hosts, too? If one political candidate gets airtime, should the opponent automatically get the same? The hour closes with strong commentary on circumcision, religious doctrine, and a viral controversy involving an Islamic scholar condemning dog ownership. Are we witnessing cultural confusion—or a deeper ideological shift? If you care about free speech, faith, media bias, and parental authority, this hour demands your attention.

From Haiti vs. the Dominican Republic to East vs. West Berlin, is government the defining factor between prosperity and collapse? The conversation intensifies with analysis of media silence surrounding controversial political rhetoric, questions about crime trends, and ongoing investigations tied to Black Lives Matter leadership. Are Americans getting the full story—or just curated headlines? Then, energy policy takes center stage as Kenny Stein, Vice President of Policy at the American Energy Alliance and the Institute for Energy Research, joins the program. What did the Trump administration actually roll back in EPA regulations? Were EV mandates quietly being imposed through regulatory backdoors? Why are hybrid vehicles outperforming fully electric models in a true free-market environment? And did Toyota outsmart Detroit by refusing to chase political trends? From governance and urban decline to energy freedom and the realities of the auto industry, this hour challenges narratives and asks: What happens when policy overrides the marketplace?
