(04:00) Travis Hunter on Brian Thomas Jr.: “"Just seeing how he goes about his work. He helped me out a lot.”(12:00)  Better Bet: Travis Thomas Offensive Rookie Of the Year (+900) or Defensive Rookie of the Year (+1000)(15:30) PFT Live Draft: Training Camp battles/storylines we're looking forward to(35:30) Davante Adams feels rejuvenated: Joining Rams was “exactly what I needed”(42:12) Colts Owner Carlie Irsay-Gordon on QB Anthony Richardson: “he has all the potential in the world, and if he wants to prove it, he can.”(47:00)  Chris Simms' Top 10 Quarterbacks in 2025 revealed

1. AFC South-How would you describe the overall ecosystem Cam Ward is entering?-Did Femi Oladejo's performance last year suggest to you that his best football is still very much ahead of him?-The Jaguars already have an absolute stud WR in Brian Thomas, Jr., and when you add Travis Hunter to the mix, you just might have the perfect receiving duo to unlock the greatness inside of Trevor Lawrence. What do you think?-Do you think Bhayshul Tuten brings anything to the table that Travis Etienne does not?-Given the Colts highly questionable situation at QB, do you anticipate Shane Steichen to use Tyler Warren in similarly creative ways as he was used at Penn State?-How much of an upgrade is J.T Tuimoloau over Kwity Paye?-In what ways (if any) does Jayden Higgins complement Nico Collins and in what ways (if any) does Jaylin Noel complement Christian Kirk?-Would it surprise you if Aireontae Ersery makes a strong case for the starting RT job in training camp? 2. AFC East-Given how effectively he played with an outright atrocious support cast last season, do you think the stars are aligned for Drake Maye to make a significant "sophomore jump" in 2025?-Can you see this Jets offensive line as one of the 10 best in the league, if not better, by 2026?-Would you be surprised if Mason Taylor ends up being the best tight end from this class?-Do you think the Jets were one of the best possible landing spots for Azareye'h Thomas?-Just how high is Kenneth Grant's ceiling in your view?-What in Maxwell Hairston's game, aside from his 4.28 speed, do you think sold Sean McDermott on his potential fit in Buffalo?-Which of those three players (T.J. Sanders, Landon Jackson, or Deone Walker) are you the most bullish on and why?3. AFC North-Would you say this draft haul is a pretty solid start for the Browns as they re-shape their roster for the post-Deshaun Watson era?-Would you anticipate one of Kenny Pickett or Joe Flacco getting traded before Week 1 and both Shedeur Sanders and Dillon Gabriel starting their fair share of games this season?-Did you see Shemar Stewart as someone likely to be remembered as a "workout warrior" a la Mike Mamula, someone likely to evolve into one of the NFL's most feared QB disruptors, or somewhere in between? -Do you think Derrick Harmon is the ideal candidate to succeed Cam Heyward as the linchpin of that Steelers D-Line?-Would it surprise you if Kaleb Johnson eventually becomes the focal point of the Steelers offense this season regardless of who starts at QB? -How better positioned (at least on paper) are the Ravens to win that third Lombardi Trophy due to Malaki Starks and Mike Green?4. AFC West-Would it be a massive disappointment if the Raiders don't have a top-10, if not top-5 scoring offense this season?-Can you see one of Caleb Rogers or Charles Grant (or both) emerging as starters for the Raiders OL in 2026?-Why were the Broncos right to take Jahdae Barron and just how big of an upgrade does he bring to that Denver secondary?-Can you see R.J. Harvey getting the lion's share of the touches in the Broncos backfield this season? -Is it a reasonable expectation for Pat Bryant to evolve into a reliable safety valve for Bo Nix in third-down and Red Zone situations?-Do you anticipate both Omarion Hampton and Tre Harris to emerge as starters early this season, and if they make an instant impact, do the Chargers have enough firepower on both sides of the ball to dethrone the Chiefs for the AFC West crown?-If you're the Chiefs, are you willing to put Josh Simmons on PUP to start the season and subsequently insert him into that starting LT position around late October/early November?-Which of those three (Omarr Norman-Lott, Ashton Gillotte, or Nohl Williams) do you see making the biggest contribution to Steve Spagnuolo's defense in 2025?-If you're choosing between Jalen Royals and Brashard Smith in the later rounds of a dynasty league draft, who would you take and why?

Rescue helicopters finally reach the campers, Sue and Bruce, as well as other stranded survivors like TV reporter David Crockett and logger Jim Scymanky. But with nightfall approaching, Sue worries that rescuers won't be able to find her injured friends, Dan Balch and Brian Thomas, in time.

Welcome to the sixth episode in a series called “The Failures of Old Earth Creationism.” Many Christians attempt to fit old earth ideology into their beliefs, adopting uniformitarian or evolutionary pieces into their worldview. While this is often done in an effort to appeal to science, it often leads to major issues logically, scientifically, and theologically. The Coconino Sandstone is a sedimentary rock formation famously exposed near the top of Grand Canyon, but it spreads much further, from northern Arizona, northwest Colorado, through Nevada, and Utah. This rock remains locked in geological controversy, as two counterclaims vie for its origin. Those who believe in an old earth claim that the feature was primarily wind-deposited, while others claim that the sandstone was formed by water. Which of these is true, and why is the answer so important? In today’s episode, we’ll take a look at the Coconino Sandstone, examining the claims made from both sides. Join host Renée Dusseau and Dr. Brian Thomas as they discuss this topic on episode 98 of The Creation Podcast. --- Join... More...

The Rich Zeoli Show- Hour 2: 4:00pm- Bill D'Agostino—Senior Research Analyst at Media Research Center—joins The Rich Zeoli Show to breakdown some of the best (and worst) clips from corporate media: a Boston Globe senior opinion writer compares the modern American economy to the 1930s, Dana Bash insists CNN doesn't hate America, Taylor Lorenz describes the man responsible for assassinating healthcare CEO Brian Thomas as “morally good,” and Democrats STILL (somehow) want Kamala Harris to be their presidential candidate in 2028. 4:30pm- Appearing on ABC News, sports broadcaster Stephen A. Smith said he has “no choice” but to at least consider a presidential run in 2028. Rich notes that he has no chance of winning a primary contest—because he isn't sufficiently “woke” for Democrat voters. On his podcast, Bill Maher argued that the Democrat Party has gone too far placating the “woke”—and it risks making the party “irrelevant.” 4:50pm- Jeff Bezos's Blue Origin aerospace company sent an all-female crew into space on Monday—including pop singer Katy Perry! In a clip that has gone viral on social media, Perry tells a journalist about how she reads about string theory in her spare time…but it's hilariously clear she has no idea what she's talking about. Weekday afternoons on Talk Radio 1210 WPHT, Rich Zeoli gives the expert analysis and humorous take that we need in this crazy political climate. Along with Executive Producer Matt DeSantis and Justin Otero, the Zeoli show is the next generation of talk radio and you can be a part of it weekday afternoons 3-7pm.

The Rich Zeoli Show- Full Episode (04/14/2025): 3:05pm- A 38-year-old Harrisburg man was charged with setting fire to the Pennsylvania Governor's mansion. According to reports, the man threw two Molotov cocktails into the residence and planned to beat Governor Josh Shapiro with a hammer. Thankfully, Shapiro and his family were unharmed. President Donald Trump condemned the act and stated: “A thing like that cannot be allowed to happen.” Meanwhile, late last week, Shawn Monper—a man from Butler County, Pennsylvania—was charged with threatening to kill President Donald Trump and Elon Musk in videos posted to his YouTube channel “Mr. Satan.” Monper allegedly began purchasing guns after Trump's inauguration. 3:15pm- During an interview with CNN's “MisinfoNation” with host Donie O'Sullivan, former Washington Post and New York Times reporter Taylor Lorenz referred to Luigi Mangione as a “morally good man.” Mangione has been charged with assassinating UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thomas. In the past, Lorenz has baselessly suggested that Thomas and his company were guilty of murder for denying healthcare coverage. Last week, when questioned by the press, Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer declined to condemn violence against Tesla vehicles and their drivers—instead opting to condemn Elon Musk's work on behalf of the Trump Administration. Why isn't the left vociferously condemning politically motivated violence in America? 3:30pm- While speaking with the press from the Oval Office alongside President Donald Trump, El Salvador President Nayib Bukele revealed that he has no plans to return Abrego Garcia who was deported to El Salvador after the Trump Administration determined he was in the U.S. illegally and a member of the gang MS-13. In a recent ruling, the Supreme Court determined that Garcia's deportation was, in part, the result of an “administrative error” and that he should be returned to the United States—though, after the error is corrected, the man would ultimately be eligible for deportation anyway. While speaking with the press, Homeland Security Advisor Stephen Miller denied an administrative error ever occurred. The Trump Administration also noted that because Garcia is a citizen of El Salvador, they have no recourse if Bukele denies their request for release. 4:00pm- Bill D'Agostino—Senior Research Analyst at Media Research Center—joins The Rich Zeoli Show to breakdown some of the best (and worst) clips from corporate media: a Boston Globe senior opinion writer compares the modern American economy to the 1930s, Dana Bash insists CNN doesn't hate America, Taylor Lorenz describes the man responsible for assassinating healthcare CEO Brian Thomas as “morally good,” and Democrats STILL (somehow) want Kamala Harris to be their presidential candidate in 2028. 4:30pm- Appearing on ABC News, sports broadcaster Stephen A.

Rich notes that he has no chance of winning a primary contest—because he isn't sufficiently “woke” for Democrat voters. On his podcast, Bill Maher argued that the Democrat Party has gone too far placating the “woke”—and it risks making the party “irrelevant.” 4:50pm- Jeff Bezos's Blue Origin aerospace company sent an all-female crew into space on Monday—including pop singer Katy Perry! In a clip that has gone viral on social media, Perry tells a journalist about how she reads about string theory in her spare time…but it's hilariously clear she has no idea what she's talking about. 5:05pm- According to a report from NJ.com, the New Jersey Education Association (NJEA) has contributed $22.25 million to benefit Sean Spiller's NJ gubernatorial campaign. Spiller, who didn't have enough state-wide support to qualify for two upcoming Democrat primary debates, is a former high school science biology teacher who also leads the NJEA. He earns $370,000 per year. Rich wonders: how is this legal? 5:25pm- Montage: Every year, since ...
