During the COVID shutdowns, fishing pressure on nesting bass dropped dramatically, creating an amazing natural experiment. Nesting success soared, recruitment exploded and fisheries scientists Dr. David Philipp and Dr. Steven Cooke suddenly had compelling evidence that protecting bass during the spawning period could dramatically strengthen future year classes.The discovery led to one of the most exciting fisheries management experiments underway anywhere in North America. Philipp and Cooke have been testing whether protecting carefully selected small spawning areas in Lake Opinicon can rebuild bass populations while maintaining outstanding fishing opportunities.Today, David and Steven return to Doc Talks Fishing with the latest findings from Year Three of The Great Bass Sanctuary Experiment. What they've discovered could change the future of bass management across much of North America.Send us a message

https://www.maynardvillefellowship.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/07/Cooke-7-19-26.mp3 Jerusalem was headed for judgment—but Jesus' next warning was even more personal. Before the Temple fell, His disciples would be arrested, beaten, & killed, at the hands of Jews and Gentiles alike because they confessed His name. A few questions beg for answers. Why would that confession provoke such opposition? Would such persecution remain a permanent aspect of Christ's Kingdom—or can the church work toward peaceful and quiet lives? Listen as Pastor Matt explains Matthew 24:9—The Birth Pangs of the Kingdom: The Persecution of the Church—and why the church can expect the blessings of the Kingdom in this life, as well as reward in the life to come.

https://www.maynardvillefellowship.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/07/Cooke-7-12-26.mp3 Wars. False messiahs. Famines. Pestilences. Earthquakes. For generations, Christians have pointed to these events as signs that the end of the world must be near. But Jesus says something very different: “See that you are not frightened…that is not yet the end.” Before telling His disciples what the sign would be, Jesus first warned them what the sign was not. False christs would attempt to lead them astray. Fighting nations would threaten to frighten them. Frightening disasters would shake the world around them. But these events were not the decisive sign. They were only “the beginning of birth pangs.” In this message, we examine the biblical and historical evidence surrounding the years between Christ's resurrection and Jerusalem's destruction in AD 70—and discover why these upheavals were not evidence that Christ's kingdom had failed, but that the old covenant order was passing away and the reign of the true Messiah was advancing. Join us as we consider three distractions the disciples had to avoid—and why Matthew 24:4–8 is not describing the end of the world.

Stan Cooke guest hosts this episode discussing UFOs and the possibility of aliens existing. Then he discusses the 10 signs of Jesus's return.

This week on Outdoor Journal Radio, Ang and Pete are joined once again by Dr. Steven Cooke, the Fish Doc, to answer some of the strangest questions in fishing.After a recent trip where the crew caught an unusually high number of blue walleye, the boys ask Dr. Cooke what actually causes a walleye to turn blue, whether blue walleye are a different species, and why many of them seem to look smaller, thinner, or less healthy than their yellow counterparts.The conversation also dives into some of the weirdest behaviour anglers are now seeing with LiveScope, including suspended muskies pointing straight down, predator fish attacking bait balls, and whether fish can actually learn from pressure.Plus, the guys talk about a massive Fraser River white sturgeon, blotchy bass, fish genetics, fish memory, carp lips in China, and why modern fishing technology is showing anglers things we may have never understood before.If you've ever caught a blue walleye, seen something strange on your sonar, or wondered how smart fish really are, this episode is for you.Subscribe for more fishing stories, conservation talk, outdoor news, and behind-the-scenes conversations from The Fish'n Canada Show and Outdoor Journal Radio.

https://www.maynardvillefellowship.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/07/Cooke-7-5-26.mp3 Jesus has declared that the Temple will be utterly destroyed. The disciples know what is coming. Their unsettled dilemma is when. “Tell us, when will these things happen, & what will be the sign of Your coming, & of the end of the age?” — Matthew 24:3 These are not the speculative questions of prophecy-chart enthusiasts. They are the trembling questions of men whose entire covenantal world has just been shaken. The Temple will fall. The Old Covenant age will end. The Son of Man will be vindicated. The Kingdom will no longer be centered in Jerusalem, but in the risen Christ ruling from heaven. Listen as Pastor Matt explains what the disciples were asking when they asked, ‘When Will These Things Happen?’

Charles C. W. Cooke, John Yoo, and Richard Epstein break down three major Supreme Court decisions from the end of the term: Trump v. Barbara, the birthright citizenship case that left the status quo intact while sparking a debate over originalism, birth tourism, and Wong Kim Ark; West Virginia v. BPJ, the transgender-athletes case addressing Title IX, equal protection, women's sports, and federalism; and National Republican Senatorial Committee v. FEC, the campaign-finance ruling that further limits restrictions on coordinated party spending and raises big questions about money, speech, corruption, and the future strength of political parties.

Charles C. W. Cooke and Richard Epstein break down the Supreme Court's Roundup v. Monsanto decision, arguing that the case was widely miscast as a simple fight between big business and cancer victims. Epstein explains why the real issue was federal preemption under FIFRA, the limits of state-law warning-label lawsuits, and the danger of letting juries override regulatory judgments on complex scientific questions. Along the way, he surveys the evolution of product liability law, the risks of over-litigation, and why different products—from pesticides to vaccines—may require very different legal treatment.

In part one of our Supreme Court decisions coverage, Charles C. W. Cooke, Richard Epstein, and John Yoo break down the decisions handed down today, beginning with the Court's treatment of presidential removal power in Trump v. Slaughter and Trump v. Cook (no relation) —the first apparently overruling Humphrey's Executor for ordinary agencies, the second preserving a major carveout for the Federal Reserve. They also debate Chatrie v. United States, a Fourth Amendment case involving law enforcement's use of geofencing warrants and cellphone location data, and close with Watson v. Republican National Committee, in which Justice Amy Coney Barrett held that states may count mail-in ballots received after Election Day unless Congress clearly says otherwise. Along the way, the hosts argue over the administrative state, judicial independence, election integrity, and whether the Roberts Court is as predictable—or as partisan—as its critics claim. Part two will be on Thursday, with a decision expected on (cue dramatic music)...birthright citizenship!

In this episode, we welcome Julia Cooke to discuss her new book, Starry and Restless: Three Women Who Changed Work, Writing, and the World, which profiles three pioneering women journalists: Rebecca West, Emily "Mickey" Hahn, and Martha Gellhorn. Cooke explores these writers' shared temperament and celebrates their work as a forerunner to New Journalism. Throughout our interview, we learn about Gellhorn: her life before Hemingway entered the scene (in a letter, she would describe her younger self as "starry and restless”), her short-lived relationship with Hemingway, and her later years in which she adopted a son and experienced a rather complicated motherhood. Cooke also immerses us in Gellhorn's writing, focusing on how her war journalism weaves together harrowing scenes with humanizing details and how her witnessing of Dachau toward the end of WWII was truly transformative.

National Review Senior Editor Charles C.W. Cooke, who hosts the Charles C.W. Cooke Podcast, fills in for Jim on the Wednesday 3 Martini Lunch. Join Charlie and Greg as they break down the FBI thwarting a terrorist attack aimed at the UFC-White House event, the ridiculous ranked choice voting system, Hillary Clinton's revisionist comments on Biden's 2024 re-election bid, and the opening of Barack Obama's presidential library.First, Charlie and Greg react to the alleged plot of a drone and sniper attack at the UFC America 250 event thwarted days in advance by the FBI. Five suspects have been arrested, and at least 23 Signal users are believed to have discussed the scheme on the encrypted app. Charlie emphasizes that drone technology is drastically changing security protocols.Next, Charlie and Greg scrutinize the convoluted ranked choice voting system, illustrated by elections in Alaska and Washington, D.C. Charlie argues that election laws become problematic when average citizens struggle to understand how votes are counted and how winners ultimately emerge.Then, they cover Hillary Clinton's recent remarks saying President Joe Biden made a “terrible mistake” by running for re-election in 2024. Hillary is the latest Democrat trying to rewrite history after staunchly backing Biden.Finally, Charlie and Greg poke fun at the hideous Obama Presidential Museum and look back at his real presidential legacy.Please visit our great sponsors:Brooklyn BeddingGet 30% off sitewide Brooklyn Bedding with promo code 3ML at https://BrooklynBedding.com Noble Gold Download the free investor kit.

National Review Senior Editor Charles C.W. Cooke, who hosts the Charles C.W. Cooke Podcast, fills in for Jim on the Tuesday 3 Martini Lunch. Join Charlie and Greg as they discuss Jim Acosta's absurd analysis of Trump's name being removed from the John F. Kennedy Center, Virgina's attack on our Second Amendment rights, the UK's new social media ban for children, and the elusive details of the U.S.-Iran peace deal. First, they cover the left's obsession over the removal of President Trump's name from the Kennedy Center. Former CNN anchor Jim Acosta compared it to the fall of the Berlin Wall and called it “a sign that humankind can stand up against tyranny.” Charlie and Greg laugh at Acosta's delusional take. Next, Charlie and Greg rip Virginia officials for arguing that its citizens do not possess an individual right to keep and bear arms, despite protections in both the U.S. Constitution and Virginia's constitution. The argument comes as part of the state's defense of sweeping new gun-control measures. Charlie also dismantles the claim that Second Amendment protections apply only to organized militia service.Then, they slam the UK's newest laws banning several social media sites for children under 16. The ban includes platforms like Snapchat, TikTok, YouTube, Instagram, and X. However far-left site Bluesky is conspicuously exempt. Charlie and Greg agree kids should not be on social media, but government control is not the solution. Finally, Charlie and Greg express their dismay with the lack of details regarding the U.S.-Iran peace deal. Trump says the war is over and markets are rallying, but the specifics of the deal have still yet to be released.

National Review Senior Editor Charles C.W. Cooke, who also hosts the Charles C.W. Cooke Podcast, fills in for Jim on the Monday 3 Martini Lunch. Join Charlie and Greg as they react to the left's meltdown over Elon Musk becoming the world's first trillionaire, the media's shock that World Cup tourists haven't found the South to be an inhospitable wasteland, a new poll highlighting the partisan divide over patriotism, and NBA Finals MVP Jalen Brunson wishing he still paid taxes in Texas.First, they rip Democrats for their hysterical reaction following the SpaceX IPO, with the likes of Bernie Sanders and Ellizabeth Warren rushing to demand wealth taxes as soon as Musk crossed the trillion-dollar mark. Charlie condems the left's tendency towards punishing success and stifling ambition. Next, Charlie and Greg laugh at leftist media figures like USA Today's Christine Brennan being shocked that World Cup tourists were shown excellent hospitality in the American South. The perception of America as dangerous and unwelcoming is proving to be no more than a media lie. Then, they comment on a new NBC poll on American patriotism showing the stark difference in responses between Republicans and Democrats. Pride in America among Democrats seems to be largely dependent upon the occupant of the White House. As an immigrant who is now a U.S. citizen, Charlie explains how disgraceful that thinking is. Finally, Charlie and Greg delight in a clip of NBA Finals MVP Jalen Brunson, who after delivering the New York Knicks their first championship in 53 years, admitted, “I miss the Texas taxes.” Texas does not tax personal income, while New York has one of the nation's highest tax burdens.Please visit our great sponsors:Brooklyn BeddingGet 30% off sitewide Brooklyn Bedding with promo code 3ML at https://BrooklynBedding.comPocket HoseFor a limited time, get two free gifts—a 360° rotating pocket pivot and a thumb drive nozzle—when you buy the Pocket Hose Ballistic; just text MARTINI to 64000, message and data rates may apply.BetterHelpYou don't have to say yes to everything this summer.

It's just James and Charles to recollect and swap rants about the goings-on of the land of the free and the home of oddball. The cast of characters includes the world's first billionaire, an Angeleno who lost an election for common sense, a lunatic posing as a model working man, and the deeply flawed judgment of Democratic voters about guys like these.

Tyler Cook is a professional GT3 racing driver who has competed in some of the most grueling endurance races on the planet, the 24 Hours of Spa, the 24 Hours of Nürburgring, IMSA, and GT World Challenge Europe. He's also been living with type 1 diabetes since he was 11 years old. This episode gets into what it actually looks like to manage blood sugar in a fire suit, in a 130-degree cockpit, at 150 miles per hour, sometimes at 3 a.m. Tyler takes us back to his diagnosis in 2006 — an ICU stay, four IVs, and a very specific grief over the chocolate mousse at Epcot's France pavilion. From there, he walks us through the journey from go-karts in his dad's garage to GT3 race cars with 650 horsepower. Along the way, there was bullying in middle school over his diet, sneaking to the bathroom to give injections on dates, and a decision somewhere along the line to stop hiding his diabetes and start owning it. We get into the technical side, too: how OmniPod changed his race management strategy, why adrenaline sends his blood sugar climbing instead of crashing, what a 24-hour-race insulin plan actually looks like, and what it means to have a Gatorade button wired into your cockpit as an emergency low-blood-sugar protocol. Tyler also talks about the physical training side of racing — heart rate zone work, neck day (yes, neck day), and why a GT3 driver can be pressing 1,200 pounds of brake force per pedal. The episode wraps with something that's been sitting with both Rob and Tyler: the idea of trusting the process. For Tyler, the lesson comes through racing — you can't skip steps from spec Miata to GT3. For people with T1D, it's the same. Wherever you are in your management journey, that's where you are — and it's going to get better if you just keep going.

In this episode of From Waterloo to the Alamo, we sit down with Nicole Torres-Cooke, founder of Schmooze Networking, TREC certified CE instructor, creator of VodkaGirlATX, and the force carrying on a family Final Expenses business, for a conversation that moves between social media, small business, and building a life that refuses to fit in one box. From the early days of social media back in 2008 to the number one ranked vodka blog on the planet, this episode unpacks how curiosity, hustle, and heart come together to shape a career entirely her own.We dig into what Schmooze Networking looked like at the dawn of social media and how the work has changed, what she really means by teaching you to manage your social life so you can manage your business, and the most common mistake she sees agents and small business owners make online. She shares how teaching TREC agents became part of her world and the one platform she would tell them to prioritize, how VodkaGirlATX grew from a hobby into a global following, and the meaningful pivot of continuing her stepdad's Final Expenses business and how she opens the conversations most people avoid. We talk about what makes Austin networking different from anywhere else, the advice she gives the women she mentors, and yes, the signature drink order, the perfect Austin Saturday, and the three people she would seat at her dream dinner table.Rooted in the perspective and global standard of Engel & Völkers, this conversation reflects the warmth, range, and real connection that define the next era of business and community across Austin and beyond. If you are building a brand, growing a business, or just love a good story about doing it your own way, this is the conversation you want in your ear!

Our guest today is Doug Cooke, an aerospace consultant who spent 38 years at NASA's Johnson Space Center in Houston and NASA Headquarters in Washington, D.C.  STEM-Talk host and IHMC founder Dr. Ken Ford, a former Associate Director of NASA's Ames Research Center and Director of NASA's Center of Excellence in Information Technology, interviewed Doug just four days after the astronauts of NASA's Artemis II mission splashed down in the Pacific Ocean following a historic 10-day roundtrip from the Earth to the Moon. In today's episode, Ken and Doug discuss the Artemis mission as well as NASA's plans to return humans to the lunar surface by 2028. Doug also shares his concern that China could one day surpass America's leadership role in human spaceflight. During his 38 years at NASA, Doug played critical roles in the Space Shuttle, International Space Station and Human Exploration spaceflight programs. During the last three years of his NASA career, he served as Associate Administrator of the Exploration Systems Mission Directorate, which oversees the development of systems critical to NASA’s plans for human exploration of the Moon and Mars, including the Artemis program. Show notes: [00:04:05] Ken opens our interview with Doug by talking about the Artemis II mission, which is the first crewed mission beyond low earth orbit since Apollo 17 in 1972. Harrison Schmidtt, who was on Apollo 17, was our guest on episode 4. Ken asks Doug for his key takeaways of the Artemis II mission, which set the record for a manned mission from Earth, traveling 252,756 miles into space and breaking Apollo 13's record. [00:06:18] Ken explains that the Artemis missions signal a new age of space exploration as well as the beginning of a new space race between the U.S. and China. NASA aims to land humans on the Moon by 2028 while China expects to land humans on the moon in 2030. Ken has previously stated that he does not have confidence in NASA's current mission architecture to achieve NASA's stated goal of 2028, and asks Doug for his thoughts on the matter. [00:07:28] Ken asks if it is true that Yuri Gagarin, who become the first human to fly into space, is what initially sparked Doug's interest in science and space. [00:08:54] Ken notes that Gagarin's orbit around the earth inspired President Kennedy to vow that the United States would ramp up its space program and become the first nation to land a man on the moon. Ken mentions that he believes the Apollo 11 mission, which landed astronauts Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin on the lunar surface, was one the greatest technological advances in world history. Ken asks Doug for his thoughts on the success of the Apollo program. [00:10:28] Ken mentions that Doug went to college at Texas A&M and majored in aerospace engineering. Kens asks Doug how he got a job at NASA after graduating. [00:12:21] Ken explains that Doug was instrumental in the development of the space shuttle and the International Space Station during his time at NASA. Doug talks about what it was like working on those projects at NASA. [00:15:16] Ken mentions that Doug also had an instrumental role in the Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter (LRO), Lunar Crater Observation and Sensing Satellite (LCROSS), and the broader Exploration Technology Program. Ken points out that Doug became head of the exploration technology program in 1990 under then NASA Associate Administrator Mike Griffin, who was our guest on episodes 134 and 189. Ken asks Doug about meeting Mike. [00:16:17] Ken mentions that Mike Griffin and Lisa Porter were our guests on episode 189, where they voiced concerns about NASA's current plans for a return to the moon. Ken goes on to mention that near the end of Doug's career at NASA, he was the head of Exploration Systems Mission Directorate (ESMD), which is responsible for the development of systems critical to NASA's plans for future exploration of the Moon and Mars. Ken asks Doug to talk about his role as head of the directorate and the work he did there. [00:18:55] Ken explains that Doug has written extensively on the issues with the Artemis mission architecture, most notably in a recent article for space news. Before jumping into the article, Ken asks Doug to talk about why it is important and also a national-security concern that we return to the moon before China. [00:21:12] Looping back to Doug's op-ed in Space News, Ken notes that Doug stressed the need for NASA to develop a plan-B for the Artemis mission, with Doug and others noting that without a plan-B, the U.S. risks of losing the space race to the Moon. Doug has also gone on record to say that China has a far simpler, more direct, and more technically conservative plan than NASA. Ken asks Doug to elaborate on this. [00:22:37] Ken asks Doug to talk about the issues he and others have identified with NASA's current proposed landing system. [00:26:14] Ken asks Doug to give a better understanding for the listeners of just how tall the proposed SpaceX lander is, and why that is a potential problem for not only landing on the moon in the proposed locations, but also for the astronauts exiting and entering. [00:28:51] Ken asks Doug to talk about what plan-B for Artemis looks like. [00:30:12] Ken asks Doug about the powerful thrust generation of the SpaceX lander. This raises the concern of regolith blast and generating significant debris fields while landing and thus reducing the scientific value of the region immediately surrounding the landing site. [00:30:59] Ken asks if Doug has any other thoughts on a potential plan-B. [00:33:02] Ken notes that the success of the mission hinges on the least proven element, namely the lander. While other elements of the mission architecture are well established, the hardest and least tested elements are normally the weakest links. Ken asks Doug's thoughts on this position. [00:34:31] Ken asks Doug to talk about the complexity of the Artemis mission architecture and that it is largely driven by the Lander and NASA's requirements.  There was a high interest in re-usability which increased complexity. Neither of the two Landers under development are an optimal design for a lunar lander. [00:35:37] Ken asks Doug about the role of commercial companies sometimes called “new space” in space exploration. [00:37:02] Ken asks Doug if he feels discouraged by the fact that the U.S. has squandered a 60-year head start in space exploration. [00:37:36] Ken explains that China aims to send humans to Mars by 2050, and NASA aims to do the same by 2040, while Elon Musk proposes to send humans to Mars by 2029, which Ken says is a completely untenable notion. Ken notes that statements such as that from Musk vastly understate the difficulty entailed in a Mars mission. Given that Doug was part of the early planning of a Mars mission at NASA, he asks Doug to talk about the challenges that such a mission faces. [00:42:17] Ken and Doug discuss the problem with EDL (Entry Descent and Landing) that Mars uniquely poses. [00:43:09] Ken also brings up the issue of crew health and wellness. By the time they reach Mars, given the extended time spent in a high-radiation, micro-gravity environment, maintaining crew health in transit is critical to mission success. [00:43:47] Ken poses the concern that if it becomes likely that China will reach the moon before the U.S. can return, then NASA or the political leadership may adopt the attitude that we've already been to the moon, and that we should just jump straight to Mars. [00:46:24] Ken asks for Doug's thoughts on NASA's current leadership and workforce. [00:49:01] Ken quizzes Doug about the aims, goals, and mission architecture of Artemis III and IV. [00:51:16] Ken notes that the design of Artemis III might negatively impact the overall mission goal of landing on the Moon by 2028. [00:52:04] Ken shifts to talk more about Artemis IV, elements of which, Ken notes, need much more testing to be ready. [00:52:58] Ken closes our interview noting that Doug will return for another interview on STEM-Talk in 2028 to see if Artemis is on schedule. Ken ends by asking Doug about how he started his hobby of collecting Civil War artifacts after he retired and moved to Gettysburg, as well as his hobby of collecting antique cars. [00:55:17] Ken closes by asking Doug to name the favorite car he has collected. Links: Doug Cooke bio Learn more about IHMC STEM-Talk homepage Ken Ford bio Ken Ford Wikipedia page  

National Review Senior Editor Charles C.W. Cooke, who also hosts the Charles C.W. Cooke Podcast, fills in for Jim on the Thursday 3 Martini Lunch. Join Charlie and Greg as they break down the Trump administration's escalating crackdown on Medicare and Medicaid fraud, the dangerous Democratic push to expand the U.S. Supreme Court,and the predictable results of Callifornia providing taxpayer-funded iPads to prisoners.First, Charlie and Greg applaud Vice President JD Vance and CMS Director Mehmet Oz for taking a tougher stance against Medicare and Medicaid fraud. The administration announced it is deferring $1.3 billion in Medicare reimbursements to California over concerns the state is failing to combat fraud effectively. Vance warns other states could face similar consequences, while Oz explains the huge benefits we could see from greatly reducing fraud.Next, Charlie goes deeper into his condemnation of Democrats openly plotting to expand the U.S. Supreme Court by enough seats to give the left a likely majority. Charlie explains why he believes that would be the most damaging event to our constitutional order since the Civil War.Then, they sigh as California spends $189 million on taxpayer-funded iPads so prisoners, or "justice impacted individuals" as many on the left call them, can contact their families and pursue educational opportunities. Do you think that's what the devices are being used for? No. No, it is not. Charlie rips the waste of money and the Orwellian way the left looks at criminals.Finally, the New York Times proves Charlie right by promoting the dubious Nicholas Kristoff column on it's main X page, but addressing concerns about evidence and fact-checking to a public relations account with a tiny fraction of the followers that the main page has.Please visit our great sponsors:QuoMoney is on the line.

National Review Senior Editor Charles C.W. Cooke, who also hosts the Charles C.W. Cooke Podcast, fills in for Jim on Wednesday's 3 Martini Lunch. Join Charlie and Greg as they dig into the heinous allegations against Israel by New York Times columnist Nicholas Kristoff, Biden Homeland Security Sec. Alejandro Mayorkas regretting not acting sooner to secure the border, California  Democrat Xavier Becerra's pathetic plea for only a few tough questions from the media, and more.First, Charlie and Greg slam Kristof's column accusing Israel of horrific abuses against Palestinian prisoners, including claims involving trained dogs. They contrast those allegations with newly detailed reports documenting the brutal atrocities committed by Hamas during the October 7, 2023 terrorist attacks on Israel.Next, they roll their eyes as former DHS Sec. Mayorkas admits the Biden administration should have acted sooner to control the border. But he still ultimately blames Congress and says he is very proud of the executive orders Biden issued in the summer of 2024 to reduce the chaos. Charlie shreds Mayorkas' argument and explains how the border crisis was intentional.Then, they laugh at California gubernatorial candidate Xavier Becerra asking a reporter to limit the number of difficult questions. Charlie explains why the moment perfectly captures the modern left's expectations of media coverage.Finally, they react to the winner of the Democratic U.S. Senate primary in Nebraska planning to drop out of the race and endorse the "independent" candidate.Please visit our great sponsors:QuoMoney is on the line.

National Review Senior Editor Charles C.W. Cooke, who also hosts the Charles C.W. Cooke Podcast, fills in for Jim on Tuesday's 3 Martini Lunch. Join Charlie and Greg as they break down the Democrats' latest overt attacks on our courts, Congress considering a federal gas tax holiday, the disturbing number of people who think the Trump assassination attempts were staged, and North Korea's new nuclear policy.First, they react to California Gov. Gavin Newsom accusing the U.S. Supreme Court of exercising "raw power politics" and raising questions about its legitimacy because the justices allowed Alabama to change its congressional map. Meanwhile, House Democratic Leader Hakeem Jeffries is vowing "massive" judicial reforms if Democrats get back in power. Charlie explains what's really happening here.Next, there's a movement in Congress to suspend the federal gas tax for 90 days. Charlie explains why he sees this more as a gimmick than a solution to high prices. But he also reveals why he's glad to see Congress doing this even though he opposes the bill.Then, they're horrified that a third of Democrats believe the attempted White House Correspondents Dinner shooting was staged. And even more of them believe the shooting in Butler, Pennsylvania - where Trump actually got shot - was staged. Charlie and Greg discuss the relentless conspiracies in our politics and whether there's a way to reverse the trend.Finally, they comment on North Korea's new law that if another nation kills or incapacitates Kim Jong-Un, North Korea would "automatically and immediately" launch nuclear weapons.Please visit our great sponsors:Quo Money is on the line.

Can CA Be Saved? Clay Travis and Buck Sexton discuss California’s role as a political bellwether. The hosts closely analyze both the California governor’s race and the Los Angeles mayoral race, framing them as potential indicators of whether voters are beginning to push back against progressive governance. They highlight moments from recent debates, particularly around the controversial issue of transgender athletes competing in women’s sports, presenting it as a broader cultural flashpoint that reflects deeper national divisions on identity, fairness, and public policy. Energy and economic policy also receive significant attention, particularly California’s high gas prices and restrictions on in-state oil production. Clay and Buck argue that environmental policies limiting domestic energy output have contributed to economic strain and increased reliance on foreign energy sources, tying this discussion into larger concerns about affordability, inflation, and energy independence. The Los Angeles mayoral race becomes a major focal point, especially the candidacy of Spencer Pratt, who emerges as a disruptive outsider voice. The hosts emphasize his blunt critique of Los Angeles leadership, particularly on homelessness and public safety, highlighting his argument that addiction—especially to drugs like fentanyl and meth—is a primary driver of homelessness rather than simply a housing shortage. They position his messaging as resonating with voters who are frustrated with long-standing policies and escalating urban challenges, including crime and visible homelessness. Don't Fear the Hantavirus Clay and Buck discuss coverage of a developing Hantavirus outbreak linked to a cruise ship. They emphasize that while the virus carries a high fatality rate, it remains extremely rare and difficult to transmit between humans, urging listeners not to panic while highlighting how quickly fear can spread in the current climate. They discuss the lingering impact of COVID-19 on public trust in government and health institutions. Clay and Buck revisit controversial pandemic-era policies such as contact tracing, lockdowns, and shifting public health guidance, arguing that these decisions severely damaged confidence in institutions like the CDC. They warn that this erosion of trust could have serious consequences if a more dangerous pandemic were to emerge, as widespread skepticism might lead to public resistance against official guidance and potentially even societal instability. The conversation expands into a broader examination of pandemic preparedness and risk, including concerns about future viral outbreaks and biosecurity threats. The hosts speculate about how emerging technologies, particularly artificial intelligence and biotechnology, could lower the barrier for creating dangerous pathogens. They frame this as a double-edged sword—while AI could drive major scientific and medical breakthroughs, it also introduces the risk of misuse by bad actors, raising questions about regulation, oversight, and long-term global security. Jack Carr's Fourth Option Clay and Buck interview bestselling author Jack Carr, providing a shift in tone toward entertainment, publishing, and creative industries. Carr discusses his new thriller novel, “The Fourth Option,” introducing a new protagonist and storyline outside his popular Terminal List universe. He explains the inspiration behind the book, drawing from classic Western themes, 1980s pop culture influences, and his own military background, while highlighting his goal of expanding into new characters and storytelling worlds. The interview also explores the intersection of books, television, and streaming media, as Carr reflects on the success of his existing franchises and their adaptation into hit series. He provides insight into the creative process behind writing novels versus producing television content, emphasizing the differences between independent writing and collaborative production environments. The conversation touches on Hollywood, audience reception, and how data-driven success has enabled him to pursue new creative projects. Clay and Buck engage Carr on the broader publishing industry and storytelling trends, discussing how bestselling authors build loyal audiences and expand their intellectual property across multiple platforms. They also explore how casting decisions are made for adaptations, including Carr’s experience working with major actors and how his work attracted high-profile talent. Another notable theme from the interview is the importance of reading and literacy in the digital age. Carr and the hosts emphasize the value of books in developing empathy, critical thinking, and focus, contrasting it with the negative effects of social media consumption and constant digital distraction. They encourage listeners to read more and promote reading habits among younger generations as a way to counteract declining attention spans. The Gov't is Stealing Your Money Guest Mehek Cooke, Senior National Security and Legal Analyst for the Daily Signal, outlines claims of widespread abuse within home healthcare programs, citing billions of dollars in expenditures and alleging systemic failures in oversight and accountability. The discussion raises concerns about inefficiencies in government programs, the challenges of prosecuting financial crimes, and the broader issue of taxpayer-funded fraud. The hosts connect this story to national concerns about wasteful spending and the need for stronger enforcement mechanisms. Political analysis continues with discussion of Ohio’s upcoming elections, including Senate and gubernatorial races. The hosts and guest warn that despite Ohio’s recent Republican lean, Democrats remain competitive and highly motivated, framing the state as a potential battleground that could signal broader national trends ahead of the midterms. National security becomes another central topic as the conversation shifts to U.S.–Iran relations and global energy markets. The discussion focuses on tensions in the Strait of Hormuz, potential negotiations, and the strategic importance of oil supply routes. Cooke argues for a more aggressive approach toward Iran, including economic and military pressure, while also acknowledging the potential impact of rising gas prices on American voters and election outcomes. Energy independence and domestic production are presented as key factors in managing both economic stability and geopolitical risk.

Have we hit the "another week, another act of homegrown terror" phase of American history? Spencer Klavan joins Steve and Charles for a roundup of the (relatively) young academic's recent works on subjects ranging from Francis Fukayama's oft-misunderstood thesis to the ascent of figures like Hasan Piker, who hope to microloot our stores of social capital (and Whole Foods, too). The trio also considers the possibilities before the classical education rebellion that's breaking out on campuses. Plus, Cooke and Hayward dive into this week's SCOTUS decision on Section 2 of the Voting Rights Act, and they see an achievement worth celebrating in the United Arab Emirates' decision to leave OPEC.
