  • Keeps me Grounded

    America would benefit from listening to Jack. Should be on a national show. I’ve been listening for over 15 years...have you ever finished reading a book or watching a documentary and you get that feeling of being smarter than you were before. That’s how Jack makes me feel everyday after his show.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

JACK RICCARDI SHOW ON DEMAND AIRED WED. 05/13/2026
Q: Why is it important to test candidates with unshared questions ahead of time?
Riccardi argues that asking questions on the spot reveals preparedness, authenticity, and the ability to respond under pressure, rather than a rehearsed performance.
JACK RICCARDI SHOW ON DEMAND AIRED WED. 05/13/2026
Q: What is the mechanics of the special election in District 23, and how might two maps be on the ballot?
Herrera explains that special elections are likely, possibly aligned with the general election, and that redistricting could force the district to appear on two different maps on the same ballot, creating a complex voting scenario for constituents.
JACK RICCARDI SHOW ON DEMAND AIRED TUES. 04/21/2026
Q: Hi. Every day I wake up scared because a person I love is trans, and I'm waiting for the day that they start banging on doors and taking our trans and our gay friends and family to concentration camps. And they can't get, our trans friends and family can't get a passport to safely flee this country. And I know that there's nothing you can do about that. But if you could, what would it be?
The host responds with empathy, acknowledges the fear, and rejects the premise of forced concentration camps, while emphasizing that policymakers should focus on practical concerns like affordability, safety, and protecting rights, rather than inflaming panic. He also critiques political leaders for exploiting fear and urges disarming concerns with concrete, policy-based discussion.

JACK RICCARDI SHOW ON DEMAND AIRED FRI. 04/10/2026
Q: How does the program work to deliver food directly to shelters without warehouses?
