  • Awesome, thought provoking

    My biggest complaint is I don’t have enough time to listen as I’d like.

    Austin isn’t afraid to question conventional wisdom, orthodoxy, and more so than most even his own views. He doesn’t shy away from staking out bold positions & inviting on controversial people, while how does so with thought and preparation.

    We need more like him, Steffi, Camellia, and others that join often.

  • Refreshing morning show!

    The best way to wake up… aside from maybe waking up with eggs and bacon in the bed.

    So maybe a close second but nevertheless… this show is exciting, informative and not your typical morning show.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

IRAN RESCUE MIRACLE: Trump Orders Daring Special Ops Mission While Left Spread Fake News He Was Dead
Q: What explains the rebound in the middle class according to AEI data?
AEI researchers show that increases in the upper-middle class, driven by education, marriage, and compounded effort, explain a larger share of households moving up rather than down, challenging narratives of decline.
Kentucky Meets Kanto: Why Japan Loves BBQ, Country Music, and Trump... and the Left Is Seething...
Q: What makes this cross-cultural moment more than just a feel-good story?
It demonstrates the durability of alliances built on shared cultural appreciation and human connection, where people from different nations unexpectedly find common values and mutual respect, strengthening soft power beyond formal agreements.
Mamdani’s Betrayal: Protecting Islamic Terrorists While NYC Burns
Q: What are the immediate security implications of the Balat-Kayumi case?
The guest and host explain that the case shows clear, weaponizable intent with functional devices; law enforcement charges reflect a shift toward treating such plots as serious terrorism cases requiring federal action.
MAGA’s Breaking Point: Trump Targets Massie, Vance vs. Rubio in 2028
Q: Who comes after Trump, and how is the succession shaping the movement?
The discussion frames two plausible heirs—JD Vance as the movement-edge candidate and Marco Rubio as the more technocratic, winner-prone choice—each appealing to different facets of the base and donor class, with Trump moderating the contest by keeping both in play.
UNVEILED & ARMED: The Iranian Women Dancing on the Ayatollah’s Grave
Q: What is the central strategic reason for aiming at Iran's leadership rather than engaging in multilateral diplomacy?
The host argues that neutralizing the regime's power through decisive action protects national interests, ends a long campaign of asymmetric terrorism, and secures energy independence and sovereignty.
