  • A joke?

    Todays episode 🤦🏻‍♀️ here’s an idea. Maybe do some actual journalism and interview the other side.. you may find the reason why. Oh also, the use of the term “ free money” just laughable. Not news or journalism 😂

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Hour 2: SCOTUS ruled on two major immigration cases today
Q: How does TPS factor into the court's decision and what are the implications for the people currently in the U.S. under that status?
TPS decisions focus on whether the protected status should remain in place; the court confirms the president's power to grant or end TPS, which could impact hundreds of thousands of people depending on country safety and policy determinations.
Hour 2: SCOTUS ruled on two major immigration cases today
Q: What happens to people who already arrived under previous interpretations if the border rule changes?
People who were already in the U.S. when the ruling is implemented are affected differently by subsequent policy decisions, but the ruling itself narrows who is considered arrived going forward, potentially delaying processing for some asylum seekers.
Hour 2: SCOTUS ruled on two major immigration cases today
Q: Can you explain in simple terms what the asylum ruling changes about who is considered to have arrived in the U.S.?
Under the ruling, simply standing at the border no longer counts as having arrived; arrival is limited to those within the U.S. or physically on U.S. soil, which changes when and where someone can apply and be admitted while their case is decided.
Hour 2: What is one word you would use to describe America?
Q: What one word do you use to describe America?
Freedom; it captures a core sense of liberty and opportunity that resonates with many, even amid political complexity.
Dave Pasch, former radio play-by-play broadcaster, Arizona Cardinals
Q: Hey, Pasch, I got a question for you. I think a lot of people would be curious. You know, obviously, you travel with the team, you're around the team a lot. Do you have friends that are players? Do you actually have relationships with players, past or present?
Pasch explains that he has formed friendships with former players and notes that access has become tougher, but he values the personal connections built during his tenure.
