  12. Ep. 38: A word on "conservative" media

  20. Ep. 30: What true patriotism looks like

  32. Ep. 18: The Left's Endgame with Trump

    One day, it's denying his campaign manager ever touched a female reporter. The next day, it's denying his campaign manager was actually arrested for said incident.

  35. Ep. 15: Before we can win, we have to understand why we've lost

  36. Ep. 14: Are "Rules for Patriots" timeless or static?

    With a tectonic shift happening in American politics, many fear we may never see the same America our parents and grandparents saw ever again.
