The Joe Pags Show

Pags lays out the actual facts the media refuses to tell you: an illegal immigrant father abandoned his child, and ICE was blamed anyway. Why won't the left talk about the truth? Pags rips the media for spreading misinformation, calls out the hypocrisy, and shuts down the rhetoric with facts. A must-hear, full-throttle hour. Learn more about your ad choices.

Then the show goes next-level as Rob O'Neill, former Navy SEAL Team Six operator who participated in the mission that took down Osama bin Laden, joins Pags. O'Neill delivers an inside-the-wire breakdown of how a high-risk operation like Maduro's capture can happen — how the U.S. gets in and out of hostile territory, minimizes casualties, and executes precision missions. He compares the complexities of this operation to past SEAL missions and explains what the public rarely understands about planning, intelligence, and execution. A thrilling, expert, must-hear interview. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Joe Pags takes on the heated debate swirling around Tim Walz, examining his rhetoric and asking why it consistently alienates large swaths of Americans.

Then it's some lighter-but-still-serious fun as a record-setting Powerball jackpot looms—lump sum or annuity? The crew can't agree. Pags also breaks down an awkward moment from Keith Ellison, and finishes by fact-checking a viral claim about the Supreme Court of the United States.

Joe Pags dives into the headlines lighting up everyone's For You page — and kicks things off by singing “The Grinch” live on air, because why not? Then it's rapid-fire news: the economy grows a full percentage point, with Kevin Hassett weighing in on what it really means; FCC Chairman Brendan Carr bans foreign-made drones, and Pags says GOOD — China's been spying long enough. Plus, are we headed toward conflict with Venezuela? Pags says not so fast — but with U.S. troops moving into the Caribbean, he explains why the situation suddenly deserves a closer look. Then Wilfred Reilly, author and associate professor at Kansas State University, joins the show for a must-hear conversation. Reilly takes on leftist revisionist history, dismantling false narratives about Native Americans, colonialism, the Southern Strategy, and more. He explains how history has been twisted in classrooms — and lays out the actual facts they don't want taught. Fun, fast, and full of truth — a can't-miss hour. Learn more about your ad choices.
