He talks about first becoming interested in wine in his early twenties after attending a tasting and realizing how different wines could be from one another. The curiosity led him to dive deeper into what he describes as “liquid geography,” eventually pushing him toward a career centered around wine and hospitality. Wayne discusses attending Portland State University for economics while always feeling drawn toward the wine industry. After visiting Napa Valley, he began reaching out to wineries directly and eventually landed a position working in public relations and hospitality. He reflects on working as a tour guide, meeting people from around the world, and discovering that wine was as much about storytelling and connection as it was about the product itself.Wayne talks about various businesses he has created, including starting wine tour companies, wine clubs, retail projects and WineUpTV, which is a show focused on interviewing people throughout the wine world. He talks about businesses alongside his wife, Camille, growing A Great Oregon Wine Tour over the years, and creating spaces that introduce people to wines from across the globe.This interview was conducted by Rich Schmidt in Newberg, Oregon on May 19, 2026.

Judge Apologizes to White House Shooter + Brian Christie on TrumpRx and Gender Dysphoria

Stay connected with us at americangroundradio.com, on Facebook, and Instagram. You're listening to American Ground Radio with Louis R. Avallone and Stephen Parr. This is the full show for May 5, 2026. We open with a story that tells you everything you need to know about where some people's priorities are right now — a D.C. magistrate judge apologized to the alleged White House Correspondents' Dinner assassin for the conditions of his safe cell. We explain what a safe cell actually is, why someone who allegedly planned to kill the president and anyone who got in the way might reasonably be placed in one, and why the same logic that says we weren't watching Jeffrey Epstein closely enough is exactly why we watch someone like this closely. We also revisit the broader question of whether this man was acting out of insanity or whether he was simply following the Democrat Party's own rhetoric to its logical conclusion — and why there is a meaningful difference between the two. In our Top 3 Thing You Need to Know, Dell Computing is moving its corporate registration from Delaware back to its home state of Texas — after a $1 billion shareholder lawsuit settlement sent $267 million straight to the law firm that filed it. Texas has set up new business courts and made frivolous shareholder lawsuits harder to file, and Dell, founded in Austin in the 1980s, is coming home. Then the federal government is suing the state of Minnesota for suing energy companies over greenhouse gases — the DOJ arguing that a single state attempting to regulate global emissions is an unconstitutional power grab into an area of exclusive federal jurisdiction. And the DOJ is suing Denver over its 37-year-old assault weapons ban — Acting AG Todd Blanche responding to the city's hell no with a reminder that the Constitution is not a suggestion and the Second Amendment is not a second-class right. Our American Mamas Teri Netterville and Kimberly Burleson tackle the growing trend of married couples choosing separate bedrooms — a TikTok conversation that turned out to be far more common than anyone expected. We talk about whether sleeping separately is a practical solution to snoring and sleep deprivation or a slow erosion of intimacy, why the men in the room were unanimously opposed while the women were a lot more understanding, and why one mama's husband made the case that sleeping next to each other — even while asleep — is its own form of quality time. We're joined by Admiral Brian Christie, Assistant Secretary for Health and head of the United States Public Health Service Commissioned Corps, for an in-depth conversation on two major HHS initiatives. First, TrumpRx.gov and Most Favored Nation drug pricing — an agreement with 16 to 17 major pharmaceutical companies that ends the decades-long arrangement where Americans subsidized lower drug prices for citizens of other countries. We explain how the program works, why it is not a government takeover of medicine, and how to use TrumpRx.gov to find the lowest available prices on your prescriptions. Then Admiral Christie explains the Trump administration's formal position on gender dysphoria in minors — a peer-reviewed report from the Office of the Assistant Secretary for Health concluding that the appropriate treatment is compassionate mental health care, not puberty blockers, not surgery, and not what the last administration called gender-affirming care. The Admiral does not mince words on what those procedures actually do to children. We also cover President Trump pausing Operation Project Freedom — the naval escort program through the Strait of Hormuz — at the request of Pakistan and other nations, as negotiations with Iran over permanent nuclear disarmament continue to develop. We explain why this is a strategic pause, not a retreat, and why the blockade remains fully in place. In our Digging Deep segment, we preview Rededicate 250 — a national jubilee of prayer, praise, and thanksgiving on the National Mall on May 17th — and make the case that prayer was never optional or incidental to this country's founding. The Continental Congress opened in prayer. Leaders called for national days of fasting and thanksgiving before there was even a constitution. John Adams said the Constitution is wholly inadequate for the governance of any but a moral and religious people. We talk about what happens to a republic when it stops being that. For our Bright Spot, Officer Antonio Richardson of the Jacksonville Police Department — an 18-year veteran of the force and a 30-year veteran of the pulpit — spent an hour and a half praying with a young man standing on the edge of the Dames Point Bridge in Jacksonville, Florida. When the man finally stepped back and hugged him, Richardson told him why he wears the badge — to reach those whom the devil thinks he's got. The video posted by the Jacksonville PD has gone viral. We play the clip. We are not ashamed to say it made us feel something. And we close with four-year-old Nova Hallett of Beaverton, Oregon — who found her grandmother bleeding and disoriented after a fall, ran outside, found a neighbor, told them what happened, called 911, and then calmly led the paramedics directly to her grandmother's apartment. The city of Beaverton honored her for her bravery. May your pursuit of happiness bring you joy.

They define providence as God both preserving and governing all of creation.

They discuss how providence differs from mere foreknowledge, address common objections, and emphasize that trusting God's character is essential for finding rest in difficult circumstances.
