Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Special Guest Friday: Behind the Fire (Brian)
Q: If someone listening right now feels exhausted, not angry, not fired up, just worn down by all of it, what would you tell them?
Feeling exhausted doesn't mean you're weak; it means you've been paying attention and you don't have to fight every battle.
Special Guest Friday: Behind the Fire (Brian)
Q: If you could force one question into the national conversation, one question that everyone had to sit with honestly, what would it be?
I'd ask, who benefits when you stop asking questions, pointing to the danger of misinformation and apathy.
Special Guest Friday: Behind the Fire (Brian)
Q: When people listen to you now, what do they get wrong about you the fastest and the most?
They assume the fire comes from hate or ego; it's really frustration from care and witnessing repeating problems.
The Venezuela Pressure Cooker
Q: Do you think the world waited too long to deal with this?
Yes, the delay happened because Venezuela became politically radioactive, making any move potentially seen as imperialism.
The Venezuela Pressure Cooker
Q: When a regime like this stays in power as long as Maduro's has, what does that tell you about how it's actually functioning behind the scenes?
It tells me the regime isn't surviving because it's strong. It's surviving because it's adaptive, relying on control over the military and food distribution.
