In this episode of The Checkin with Dwyane Wade, Dwyane, Bob, and Dorell Wright turn the spotlight on co-host Chris Johnson for part one of his full story. Chris opens up about growing up in Waco, Texas with two supportive fathers, a mother who never said a negative word about his biological dad, and a grandfather named Shot Shot who ran a barbecue business and whistled from blocks away when the streetlights came on. He refused to change his last name at 10 because Magic Johnson was the coldest player he’d ever seen, and his mother used his child support checks to teach him banking and let him buy Jordans and Starter jackets. He talks about getting subbed out at the park as a kid, training alone on his imagination, a coach who slid plays to him on index cards during history class, and deciding at 13 that if the pros didn’t work out he was going to be one of the best coaches in the game. He also covers rupturing his Achilles, watching 9/11 unfold helpless in his mother’s bed, earning a master’s in counseling at 22 with a 4.2 GPA, and coaching a 16-0 national championship football team before getting his real shot in basketball.

Edmund Fitton-Brown critiques the term "economic D-Day," explaining that Pakistan's mediation in Iran is self-interested, driven by fears of secondary US sanctions. These sanctions have suffocated Iran's economy, reducing oil exports and sparking hyperinflation. Iraq also struggles with contradictory policies, balancing its US alliance with pro-Iranian gestures, such as securing tanker passage through the Strait of Hormuz. In the Red Sea, the Houthis demand tribute from Saudi Arabia to halt attacks on tankers and pipelines. Fitton-Brown warns that paying the Houthis only delays their long-term expansionist goals against Saudi territory and Israel. (7)

Peter Berkowitz reflects on the 30th anniversary of Alan Sokal's famous academic hoax, which exposed the intellectual decline within higher education humanities. Berkowitz critiques contemporary humanities departments for their ideological hypocrisy: professors claim objective truth is subjective while simultaneously insisting that their own political claims are absolute truths. He references a report from Vanderbilt and Washington University confirming that significant contingents of humanities faculty in core disciplines subordinate scholarship to political activism. Finally, Berkowitz notes that this progressive ideological capture is concentrated among college-educated voters in elite university towns, warning that treating education as political indoctrination severely perverts liberal education.

Veronique de Rugy critiques California Representative Ro Khanna's proposal for a "one-time" 5% wealth tax on billionaires. De Rugy explains that several different European countries largely abandoned wealth taxes because they are administratively difficult, generate little revenue, and cause severe economic distortions. Highlighting a debate between Khanna and Mark Cuban, she details how taxing paper wealth completely ignores true liquidity, forcing entrepreneurs to sell shares of private companies or borrow against volatile collateral. De Rugy warns that wealth taxes inevitably expand to target middle-class citizens, ultimately costing states far more in lost income taxes than they retrieve from the wealthy. (5)

On The Charlie James Show (August 19, 2026, Hour 1, Segment 1), host Charlie James opens the broadcast by discussing the South Carolina Senate runoff early voting schedule and reviewing a recent debate hosted by Newsmax. James highlights a controversial moment where candidate Darlene Graham admitted her lack of expertise in national security—a statement that drew noticeable gasps from the live audience. Featuring clips from his appearance on Newsmax with guest Armstrong Williams, James debates the merits of Graham's candid response versus the readiness expected of a United States Senator. The segment wraps up with caller interactions, including a discussion with a caller who argues that voters should back Graham based on Donald Trump's endorsement, a premise James respectfully challenges by emphasizing local voter independence.

Paragraph Expansion Host Charlie James reacts to early voting numbers in Spartanburg County, South Carolina, celebrating a strong turnout of 1,318 voters relative to past primary levels. He moves into a sharp critique of candidate Darlene Graham's campaign, poking fun at her population figures for South Carolina and questioning her grasp on national security topics. James examines the massive political action committee (PAC) funding attempting to unseat Ralph Norman in the Republican primary, noting the irony of out-of-state "Invest in Tomorrow" funds tied to major Democratic donors. Additionally, he fields caller commentary regarding Graham's political connections, potential candidate placeholder dynamics, and national political news before wrapping up the segment with a preview of other election updates.

Richard Epstein critiques Senator Bernie Sanders' characterization of Israeli politicians as "extremists," viewing it as a provocative attempt to shift American Democratic policy. Epstein argues that a two-state solution is fundamentally unstable because an autonomous Palestinian region cannot be prevented from remilitarizing. He contends that proponents of this solution often act in bad faith, ignoring Hamas's history of violated ceasefires. Furthermore, Epstein describes the Democratic Socialists of America as isolationists who focus disproportionately on Israel while ignoring other global aggressors like Vladimir Putin in Ukraine. (11)

Ahead of an upcoming political debate, radio host Charlie James examines the controversial relationship between candidate Darline Graham and former South Carolina State Senator Katrina Shealy. James highlights audio clips where Graham downplays her connection to Shealy, asserting they are merely acquaintances and noting she served on the Commission for the Blind to advocate for the disabled community. However, James contrasts this with news reporting that claims the two frequently socialize on Shealy's porch. Questioning Graham's conservative credentials and her past qualifications for state appointments, James challenges the consistency of her statements regarding her political stance and associations.

In this segment of The Charlie James Show, broad broadcasting live from the Salute to Freedom event, host Charlie James reacts to a recent CBS News poll showing that 58% of Democrats view socialism positively. He discusses the trend as a superficial fashion statement among affluent liberals and plays a clip from Face the Nation featuring Governor Andy Beshear, who attributes the poll results to economic struggles like high inflation and healthcare costs. James critiques the argument that government job growth under the Biden administration constitutes real economic health, asserting that government positions rely on taxpayer funds rather than private sector profits. He concludes by warning that socialism strips personal choice and private ownership, arguing that its popularity stems from a desire to avoid the self-reliance and responsibility required by true freedom.

Veronique de Rugy: Veronique de Rugy critiques the Merchant Marine Act of 1920, commonly known as the Jones Act, which requires cargo moved between American ports to be transported on ships that are US-built, US-owned, and US-crewed. Originally intended to protect the American merchant marine after World War I, the act has instead caused domestic shipbuilding costs to skyrocket, making American vessels four to five times more expensive than those built in Asia. Consequently, the US fleet has dwindled, and consumers face higher prices for goods as transportation shifts to more polluting methods such as trucking. Despite its failure to achieve its stated goals, the act is sustained by special interests, including unions and specific shipyards, which exert significant political influence. Current efforts to maintain waivers for energy and fertilizer transportation are facing strong opposition from 52 House Republicans. (3)

Craig Carton and the guys evaluate Bill Cowher's vision for a conversational shift on the NFL Today pregame show.

HR1 - Braves fans may owe Alex Anthopoulos apology for critiques of his trade deadline moves In hour one Mike, Ali, and Beau recap and react to the Atlanta Braves beating the New York Mets 6-3 at home last night to win two out of the three games in their three game series with the Mets to win the series, talk about how Braves trade deadline acquisitions Lane Thomas and Tyler Mahle both made a big impact in last night's win, explain why they think Braves General Manager Alex Anthopolous' trade deadline moves are looking good after the Braves win last night, react to Atlanta Falcons Head Coach Kevin Stefanski announcing yesterday that quarterback Tua Tagovailoa will start tomorrow night in the team's preseason opener against the Denver Broncos, and that the Falcons starters will play in one drive or around 10 plays in their preseason opener against the Denver Broncos tomorrow night. The Morning Shift crew also reacts to Coach Stefanski saying that they have not yet decided on a starting quarterback for Week 1, explain why they think Tua's only preseason reps may be tomorrow if quarterback Michael Penix Jr. gets fully cleared soon, react to Chicago Bears Head Coach Ben Johnson saying he wants the Bears to have the highest-scoring offense ever, explain why they think there's nothing wrong with what he had to say, and then close out hour one by diving into the life of Beau “Squidbilly” Morgan in The Life of Squid!

Veronique de Rugy critiques the Trump administration's shift toward "socialism on the right," evidenced by the government taking ownership stakes in private companies like Intel. Often justified by national security, these interventions mirror European state-owned enterprise models that historically burden taxpayers and distort market competition. De Rugy argues that such moves make private companies hostage to government dictates, such as labor or diversity requirements. By adopting policies championed by far-left senators like Bernie Sanders, the administration risks damaging long-term economic efficiency and creating a "state enterprise" system similar to China's.

On the August 10, 2026 broadcast of The Charlie James Show (Hour 1), host Charlie James sets the stage for South Carolina's Primary Eve by analyzing early voting turnout data and discussing the local candidate field. He proceeds to criticize the U.S. Senate for its low legislative output, targeting Senator Tim Scott's priorities while taking calls from listeners. Turning to national politics, James warns of the Democratic Socialists of America's growing ideological influence on the broader Democratic Party. Finally, after a caller shares a local interaction involving the Black Panthers, James closes the hour with a critique of multiculturalism and foreign double standards.

Richard Epstein critiques the contempt of Congress referral against Dr. Anthony Fauci, arguing Fauci made "egregious mistakes" regarding pandemic regulations like masking and social distancing. Epstein contends Fauci was a "lousy scientist" who suppressed alternative treatments like hydroxychloroquine and ivermectin. He also questions the validity of a "preemptive pardon" issued by President Biden, suggesting it may relate to illegal virus shipments to the Wuhanlaboratory. Moving to politics, Epstein lambasts the Democratic Socialists of America (DSA) for their goal of dismantling the U.S. government and their admiration for failed states like Venezuela. He highlights the impracticality of Zohran Mamdani's programs in New York, such as rent stabilization and subsidized grocery stores, predicting they will eventually crater due to economic reality.

In this segment of The Charlie James Show from Friday, August 7, 2026, host Charlie James voices strong skepticism regarding Big Pharma's push for a newly approved mRNA-based flu vaccine. Playing a news clip that details how mRNA technology allows for faster vaccine production compared to traditional egg-based methods, James sarcastically questions the claimed benefits and accuses health authorities of ignoring severe potential side effects such as anaphylaxis, myocarditis, pericarditis, Bell's palsy, and Guillain-Barré syndrome. He contends that public health authorities and the media act as though previous adverse reactions were forgotten, referencing media reports of people collapsing after receiving mRNA shots. Additionally, James shares a personal experiment where he prompted ChatGPT about mRNA vaccine side effects, claiming the chatbot provided no answer, which he interprets as censorship. Concluding the segment, he expresses deep distrust in the FDA, arguing that regulatory agencies rely heavily on pharmaceutical companies' self-reported data and focus primarily on marketing claims rather than ensuring true safety.

SCHEDULE JOHN BATCHELOR SHOW 8-3-20261705Husain Haqqani: Iran is openly boasting that it uses diplomatic pauses to reconstitute its military arsenal for future attacks on energy infrastructure. Ambassador Haqqani critiques the current US approach as a haphazard war lacking a clear end-state or ground strategy, which causes deep anxiety among Gulf allies. While GCC states such as the UAE have successfully fended off missile barrages, they feel Washington has not provided the military commitment necessary for long-term protection. Consequently, China is emerging as a winner in the conflict, gaining respect through silence while the US appears as a helpless giant unable to achieve an honorable peace. (1)Ernesto Araújo and Alejandro Peña Esclusa: The inauguration of Colombian President Abelardo de la Espriella marks a pivotal shift toward the "Shield of the Americas" initiative to combat drug trafficking and organized crime. Unlike his predecessor, Gustavo Petro, the new administration seeks close cooperation with the US to dismantle narco-socialist structures. Meanwhile, Venezuela remains in crisis seven months after the detention of Nicolás Maduro, with the Rodríguez family still wielding significant power. The US is attempting to facilitate negotiations with the opposition, yet critics argue the current transition model fails the population. Regionally, Brazilian President Lula da Silva faces increasing isolation as his neighbors shift toward conservative, security-focused governance. (2)Malcolm Hoenlein: Recent reports reveal the existence of Iranian-backed assassination cells such as the Foxtrot group, which recruits European criminals to target Jewish and Israeli figures. In the Levant, the IDF continues to discover unprecedented tunnel complexes in Lebanon and Gaza, some so vast they require dedicated cement factories to seal. These reinforced, air-conditioned structures demonstrate a massive diversion of humanitarian funds toward military infrastructure. While a pilot zone plan aims to restore Lebanese sovereign authority, Hezbollah's refusal to disarm remains the primary obstacle. Similarly, in Gaza, Hamas is reportedly distributing rifles to operatives to circumvent disarmament agreements while demanding an Israeli withdrawal. (3)General Blaine Holt and Gordon Chang: Concerns are rising regarding the flow of Chinese and Russian aid to Iran, which includes potential shipments of anti-aircraft missiles. While some interpret President Trump's reserved stance as weakness, General Holt suggests it may be a strategic gambit to exploit internal CCP factional infighting. Within the Party, a reformer named Hu Chunhua is reportedly rising as a potential rival to Xi Jinping. However, experts warn that provocative Chinese actions in the South China Sea and Taiwan Strait require a steel-with-steel confrontation. Critics argue that the US must eventually humiliate the Chinese leadership through economic and espionage crackdowns to project true force. (4)Andrew Collier and Gordon Chang: China's banking system faces a time bomb with an estimated $7.7 trillion in unreported bad loans, largely due to government-backed entities rolling over debt to mask insolvency. The property market remains a crater, and while manufacturing and tech sectors such as EVs are growing, they represent only a fraction of the GDP once provided by real estate. Xi Jinping resists bazooka stimulus programs, preferring state-led investment in high tech over consumer-driven growth. This has resulted in a K-shaped economy in which wealthy urbanites thrive while rural citizens face declining property values and job insecurity. Ultimately, China risks a multi-decade slump similar to Japan's lost decades. (5)David Daoud: A recent drone attack on an IDF vehicle near the Ali Taher Ridge highlights the fragility of the current ceasefire in Lebanon. The IDF maintains control over the ridge's surface, yet Hezbollah continues to operate within a vast underground tunnel network. Despite diplomatic efforts, Iran has boasted that ceasefires are used primarily to rearm and redeploy its proxies. Hezbollah's regeneration efforts, including weapons shipments through Syria and recruitment via the IRGC's Imam Hussein division, reportedly outpace Israeli interdiction. While the Lebanese government denies these activities, evidence suggests Hezbollah remains a significant fighting force south of the Litani River. (6)Edmund Fitton-Brown: The Houthis have launched a blockade against Saudi shipping in the Red Sea, targeting energy routes critical to global markets. In response, Saudi Arabia has formed a fourteen-nation defense coalition to protect the Bab el-Mandeb, notably excluding the UAE and Oman. While the Houthis maintain some autonomy, they are heavily dependent on Iranian technical assistance and resupply. Iran has used regional pauses to restock its arsenal and now threatens Saudi infrastructure, including desalination plants and pipelines. Experts believe the US remains the elephant in the room, but a lack of consistent policy from Washington emboldens the Houthis to continue their aggressive psychological warfare. (7)Samuel Ben-Ur: President Trump has announced a tentative Hamas deal involving a phased disarmament and the transition of governance to a National Committee. However, the plan faces significant hurdles, as Israel demands the complete destruction of terror infrastructure before any withdrawal. Hamas seeks to retain small arms, potentially leading to a Hezbollah-style shadow governance. This diplomatic friction coincides with a tight Israeli election between Benjamin Netanyahu and Gadi Eisenkot. Netanyahu faces criticism for allowing US interests to dictate Israeli policy, particularly regarding Iran's ballistic missile threat. Voters are increasingly focused on national security autonomy and the domestic cost of living ahead of the October polls. (8)Janatan Sayeh: The Iranian regime has dramatically escalated its internal reign of terror, with executions increasing by over 100 percent in some regions. Revolutionary courts, led by brutal judges such as Mohammad Reza Tavakoli, use public hangings and floggings to desensitize and intimidate the population. These courts specifically target young dissidents, journalists, and even musicians for offending the supreme leader or waging war against God. Washington is criticized for failing to invoke human rights sanctions since January, even as other Western nations act. The surge in executions often coincides with diplomatic negotiations, serving as the regime's deliberate internal priority to liquidate all political dissent. (9)John Hardie: President Zelenskyy has proposed a plan to use Elon Musk's Starlink network to bypass the need for scarce Patriot interceptors, enabling deep strikes against Russian missile launchers. Starlink provides the low latency required for controlling drones beyond the radio horizon, though SpaceX currently restricts its use in certain territories. Simultaneously, Russia has implemented a crippling blockade of Odessa, targeting port infrastructure and civilian vessels with new Banderol cruise missiles. This offensive has brought agricultural and metal exports to a near standstill, threatening global food security and Ukraine's hard currency earnings. Without a maritime corridor, Ukraine faces its toughest winter challenge of the war. (10)Two names to confirm: the CCP reformer rendered in the raw as "Huchen Hua" — I set it as Hu Chunhua; and the revolutionary court judge given as "Muhammad Raza Takav Tavakoli" — I set it as Mohammad Reza Tavakoli. Also still open from earlier batches: Lorenzo Fiato or Fiori.

Husain Haqqani: Iran is openly boasting that it uses diplomatic pauses to reconstitute its military arsenal for future attacks on energy infrastructure. Ambassador Haqqani critiques the current US approach as a haphazard war lacking a clear end-state or ground strategy, which causes deep anxiety among Gulf allies. While GCC states such as the UAE have successfully fended off missile barrages, they feel Washington has not provided the military commitment necessary for long-term protection.

Richard Epstein critiques the Smithsonian's "Many Voices, One Nation" exhibit for its "woke" portrayal of American history. He argues the exhibit unfairly reduces Benjamin Franklin to an "alleged racist" while ignoring his foundational contributions. Epstein highlights the complexity of figures like Thomas Jefferson, who authored the Declaration of Independence yet held restrictive views on immigration. The discussion underscores a perceived ideological mono-culture within the history profession that prioritizes narrative over factual nuance. (3)

Conrad Black disputes Prime Minister Mark Carney's characterization of Canada as a "middle power," arguing the term is obsolete for a G7 nation with a larger economy than Russia. He critiques Carney's attempt to foster ties with China, noting China's "tatters" economy and history of disregarding trade agreements. Black maintains that Canada should prioritize its vital relationship with the U.S. while embracing a more ambitious and patriotic view of its global influence. (15)

Peter Huessy explains "extended deterrence," the U.S. nuclear umbrella protecting allies from aggression. Huessy critiques a proposal to delegate nuclear authority to a "three-key" system involving France and the UK, arguing it would create dangerous indecision during a crisis. He notes that allies increasingly doubt U.S. resolve. Strategy has shifted toward "counterforce" targets, aiming to disable an enemy's leadership and military capability rather than destroying cities, to provide "flexible response" options. (11)1900

Bill Powers and co-host Brian Leni sit down for their monthly Junior Mining Insights chat and reflect upon their conversations with numerous resource investors at the recent 2026 Rick Rule Symposium in Boca Rotan, Florida. Topics Discussed: • Concentration over diversification. Both Bill & Brian favor fewer, better-understood positions over sprawling portfolios that can't realistically be researched. • Do the math on your time. Rick Rule's "one hour per company per month" rule is a useful gut-check for how many positions you can genuinely follow. • Know the source's entry point & bias. A recommendation from someone who bought in at a fraction of today's price carries a very different risk-reward than your entry. • Understand mining stock marketing. Well marketed stories grab retail attention. But are the execs "mining the market" or building a mining company? • Geopolitical uncertainty shows up first in financing. Watch which portfolio companies need to raise capital in the next few months — that's where macro shocks bite hardest. • AI is a research accelerant, not a replacement for network and experience. Both Bill and Brian use AI tools to speed up analysis of filings and reports, but firsthand relationships and institutional history remain the differentiator. • CEO charisma matters at the booth. Awkwardness alone isn't disqualifying, but it compounds risk when other fundamentals are already weak. 00:00 Intro 00:46 Portfolio Overload 02:20 Conviction Beats Diversification 05:59 Time and ETFs 07:53 Marketing Versus Fundamentals 11:46 Know Your Risk Profile 13:33 Entry Price and Bias 16:39 Slow Down and Research 19:35 Geopolitics and Financing Risk 24:12 Review Your Portfolio 27:15 Royalty Valuation Skepticism 33:21 Using AI for Mining Stocks 38:33 Experience Network and Bias 42:47 Reputation and Naming Names 47:18 CEO Charisma Matters Brian's website: https://www.juniorstockreview.com/ Brian's YT: https://www.youtube.com/@FIELD_NOTES Bill's Twitter: https://x.com/MiningStockEdu Sign up for our free newsletter and receive interview transcripts, stock profiles and investment ideas: http://eepurl.com/cHxJ39 Bill and Brian are not licensed financial advisors.

In this segment, host Tara Servatius addresses listener texts questioning why Democrats do not face criticism for past foreign interventions or demand the extradition of anti-American terrorists to international courts. Servatius severely critiques the foreign policy approach taken by JD Vance regarding Iran, arguing that the Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) and lifting of blockades allowed the Iranian regime to rearm with Chinese components, directly leading to recent American service member casualties.
