  • Talking about late night shows….

    No mention of Craig Ferguson? Sure, he was on after the late shows but he was funny and never got into politics. You can find reruns on YouTube, very entertaining.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

The Ultimate Supreme Court Debrief With Mollie Hemingway And Shawn Fleetwood
Q: What should we be looking for in the days to come from the Court, especially on issues like women's sports and transgender rights?
We should expect further discussion on whether transgender status is a suspect class, with possible majority opinions in Idaho and West Virginia cases and continued scrutiny of how lower courts apply these standards, along with anticipation of birthright citizenship rulings and the next set of immigration-related decisions.
The Ultimate Supreme Court Debrief With Mollie Hemingway And Shawn Fleetwood
Q: Can you tell me, was there anything interesting after the court handed down a few decisions on Tuesday, June 23rd?
Yes, Blanche v. Lau was a key immigration-related ruling where the Court unanimously upheld executive parole authority under the INA, reinforcing that immigration enforcement is an executive function with deference to the administration.
'The Kylee Cast' feat. Adam Johnston, Ep. 46: Why Not Just Anyone Can Become An American
Q: But Adam, you write a lot about a topic that has become super hot on both the left and the right, and that is, what is an American?
The guest argues that creedal language without a shared historical memory and heritage is insufficient to sustain a nation; immigration policy and demographic shifts require a people with a common memory to truly bind the nation.
The Truth About Covid Treatments And The Corrupt Healthcare Complex Is Finally Revealed
Q: What led you to pursue legal action and publish your story?
Seeing repeated obstacles to sharing firsthand clinical experiences and concerns about safety and efficacy pushed me toward litigation and writing a book to lay out the detailed sequence of events and evidence for accountability.
The Truth About Covid Treatments And The Corrupt Healthcare Complex Is Finally Revealed
Q: Can you describe the consequences you faced for speaking out?
I faced professional pushback, including suspension of privileges and public labeling of misinformation; I continued to advocate and eventually pursued legal action to defend the capability of physicians to discuss viable treatments.
