  • Centrist/Moderate/Extremist?

    If you’re self-labeling yourself a centrist/moderate, you’re probably hiding something and people grow very suspicious of you. Why don’t you so-called moderates let the people label you and let the chips fall where they may?

    Barrera has some very extreme takes on things. He acts so self-centered, gets angry easily and should probably get a mental health evaluation.

Babe Ruth Conspiracy?/Kevin Kernan - Bumper to Bumper 8/4/26 Hour One

He describes starting as an assistant sports editor for the Hudson Dispatch in New Jersey, covering the New York Giants and building credibility through a colorful beat career.
Top 5/Ben Goessling - Bumper to Bumper 7/31/26 Hour Three
Q: Do you think the quarterback competition will bring out the best in both players?

Top 5, Lavelle E Neal III! - Bumper to Bumper 7/28/26 Hour Three
Q: Lavelle, good to talk to you. What level of World Cup withdrawal are you going through or are you over it at this point?
Not over it. There's still lingering things, including managerial changes in France and discussions about the World Cup's organization and outcomes, plus ongoing debates about Argentina's comportment during knockout games.
Alec Lewis, Britt Robson! - Bumper to Bumper 7/28/26 Hour Two
Q: What stands out to you about Kyler Murray's fit with the Vikings this season?
Lewis explains that while there are obvious questions about size and contract, the more important factor is whether Murray can adapt to a rhythm-based offense and whether the organization's support and system can maximize his strengths.
Former Minnesota Governor Arne Carlson - Bumper to Bumper 7/21/26 Hour Two
Q: What do you wish you had known at the start of your first term as governor?
Carlson notes that preparation and understanding staff and the governing process matter as much as ambition, and he emphasizes setting clear lines and focusing on the right issues rather than pleasing everyone.
