Iran Deal Progress, Rising Gas Prices, and Teacher Struggles

Dr. Josh Mann is joined by Adam Wittenberg to discuss the biggest stories shaping the week. They cover the latest developments on a potential US-Iran nuclear deal, including a framework for sanctions relief and inspections. The conversation also examines rising gas prices, the UAE’s exit from OPEC+, and how these shifts could strengthen American energy dominance. Adam shares insights from recent teacher surveys and stories, highlighting why many educators are leaving the profession — from student violence and lack of administrative support to changing classroom behavior. They explore school choice, teacher attitudes toward it, satisfaction levels in public vs. private schools, and emerging issues like AI in education. Additional topics include primary election results showing continued Trump influence and a powerful moment with golfer Gary Player in the Oval Office emphasizing fitness, freedom, and love of country. The episode closes with a Faith and Freedom 250 reflection on patriotic music and America’s spiritual heritage.
