Podcast appearances and mentions of Erick Erickson

Erick argues Iran is deliberately holding the American economy hostage as Brent crude tops 100 dollars after the Houthi strike Saudi ships in the Red Sea, warning that high gas prices could sink Republicans in midterms now barely 100 days out and calling on President Trump to unleash Benjamin Netanyahu and the Israelis to end […]

Erick builds a full monologue on Nate Silver's Cooperative Election Study data showing the Democratic Socialists of America are not the poor but downwardly mobile rich kids with prestige degrees, invoking Peter Turchin's elite overproduction, Joseph Schumpeter's creative destruction, Graham Platner's fake oyster fisherman act, and Dan McLaughlin's Karl Marx versus Frederick Douglass contrast. His […]

Erick opens with a raw, personal plea for his annual childhood cancer Care-a-thon benefiting Children's Healthcare of Atlanta, sharing his wife's stage four lung cancer and the reality that some of the kids he will interview over the next 48 hours may not survive the year. He then unloads on Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and the progressive […]

Erick makes the case for letting Israel off the chain against Iran, reporting that Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu wants a face-to-face with Donald Trump at Lindsey Graham's funeral but is being blocked by isolationists in Vice President JD Vance's office, and that America's slow, tit-for-tat response to Iran may be hiding a real Patriot and […]

Erick breaks down New Jersey Governor Mikie Sherrill's admission that a motor vehicle software glitch registered roughly 6,600 noncitizens to vote (about 400 actually cast ballots) under former Governor Phil Murphy, using it to indict the 1990s motor voter law that the late Georgia Senator Paul Coverdell warned against, while pushing back on both Michael […]

Erick opens the week's big theme, a full diagnosis of the Democratic Socialists of America, arguing the movement is not the poor but downwardly mobile rich kids using Nate Silver's Cooperative Election Study data on elite overproduction. He hands Republicans a free market battle plan (kill the tariffs, expand school choice, end the nonsense college […]

Erick opens with Van Jones breaking ranks and calling the far left's ideas “insane, nutty, moronic, dangerous, bigoted,” then walks through the Tim Walz pardon of an illegal alien child rapist in Minnesota, DSA nominee Darlisa Chevalier's Gaza “genocide” claims, and Hassan Piker praising Mao Zedong to the College Democrats of America. He argues the […]

Erick Erickson builds the hour around a theological indictment of socialism: the Democratic Socialists have taken the one commandment that lives entirely in the heart, thou shalt not covet, and organized it into a governing philosophy, citing Nate Silver's data showing the most liberal Americans are high education, low income kids from wealthy families. He […]

Erick connects lost American institutional knowledge (nobody can build an IMAX 70 millimeter projector anymore, and Plant Vogtle had to reteach the country how to build a nuclear power plant) to the bigger story: China is building 39 nuclear reactors and 100 coal plants while the United States builds zero. He argues Joe Biden wrecked […]

Erick closes the day with his capstone thesis that America already knows what works and the left, joined by part of the right, is choosing decline: Photo ID for election integrity, phonics and memorized multiplication tables for education, the free market over “capitalism,” and the two-parent household for stability. He contrasts Mississippi's back-to-basics reading and […]

Erick races through the day's biggest headlines: an anti-ICE activist who poured gasoline and set a fire outside New York's 26 Federal Plaza immigration court, and the Justice Department confirming acting Attorney General Todd Blanche personally approved the arrest of the Tate brothers, contradicting their lawyer Joseph McBride. He turns to Iran, where the Pentagon […]

Erick opens on a detained suspect and an incendiary device outside New York's 26 Federal Plaza, then builds his signature monologue on “the outrage machine” breaking brains on the left and the right. He defends theologian John Piper over a misread automated Leviticus 19:34 tweet, dismantles the woke-right meltdown over Christopher Nolan's “The Odyssey” (a […]

Erick Erickson is the host of the Erick Erickson show from 12-2pm here on WTIC NewsTalk 1080. He joins us to discuss the current temperature in the White House and what seems to be on the horizon for The Midterms and for President Trump.

On Open Line Friday, Erick Erickson opens with a personal Rush Limbaugh memory: how Rush secretly went to bat for him as the only guest host allowed to talk about guns and religion on the EIB Network, the black microphone Rush bought him, and the rare phone calls asking for prayer. He turns that into […]

Erick opens Open Line Friday by dissecting President Donald Trump's prime-time address on election interference, including the DHS claim that roughly 278,000 non-citizens are registered to vote and that China accessed the voter rolls of 270 million Americans. Drawing on his years as an election lawyer and political consultant, Erick argues China does not need […]

On Open Line Friday, Erick Erickson breaks down why China's Kimi K3 model just seized the number one spot on the front-end code arena, shoving Anthropic's Claude, OpenAI's ChatGPT, and Elon Musk's Grok down the leaderboard, and he reads David Sacks's warning that permitting delays and over-regulation are how America loses the AI race. Erick […]

Erick makes the case that democratic socialism always ends the same way, opening with Zohran Mamdani's plan to bar New York landlords from checking creditworthiness or evicting non-paying tenants (the “violence of evictions” activist clip) and Ro Khanna dropping his wealth-tax threshold from $1 billion to $50 million. He walks through Mike Solana's Pirate Wires […]

Erick strings together breaking audio into a single alarm about rising left-wing political violence: Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent revealing he survived an assassination attempt by a left-wing activist two hours after being sworn in, Justice Amy Coney Barrett's harrowing House Judiciary testimony about the bulletproof vest her 12-year-old son found after Dobbs, and Secretary of […]

Erick argues candidate quality will decide 2026 and spares no one, ripping GOP picks like Mike Lindell in Minnesota (against Amy Klobuchar), Colorado's fabulist nominee Victor Marx, and Georgia's Mike Collins, whose white nationalist son-in-law Alan Shear and huge cash gap against Jon Ossoff keep growing. He then turns on the Democrats' own wreckage: Michigan […]

Erick unloads on the online right for attacking Justice Amy Coney Barrett after her House testimony about death threats, a bulletproof vest, and a swatting incident, reminding listeners the Supreme Court's security request is unanimous and backed by Clarence Thomas. Then he takes apart New York Governor Kathy Hochul's AI data center moratorium with hard […]

Erick breaks down the House's bipartisan vote to make daylight saving time permanent — including his take on why Senator Tom Cotton and a bipartisan bloc from Alaska to the Dakotas are quietly killing it over dark 9 a.m. winter sunrises, floating a 30-minute split-the-difference compromise. Then he turns to Abdul El-Sayed collapsing against Haley […]

Erick Erickson delivers a candid monologue on the dangers of self-dealing in the Trump administration, warning that failing to police corruption risks handing Democrats ammunition and alienating independents ahead of the midterms. He contrasts the “drain the swamp” promise with reported foreign deals, crypto gains, and influence concerns. He also explores countercultural living in modern […]

War is back on the menu. Erick opens on the restart of the Iran conflict: a five-hour U.S. bombing campaign, a full blockade of Iranian ports, and President Trump scrapping the 20% Strait of Hormuz toll in favor of Gulf state trade and investment deals. He presses the case that Trump should stop settling for […]

Erick unloads on Elliot Page (formerly Ellen Page of Juno) for calling the gender binary a myth, using it to argue that while the left's wokeism is fading, its mental health crisis and DSA violence keep growing. He then delivers an extended investigation of the Patriot Front, arguing it is not an FBI or Southern […]

Erick Erickson joins JMN to discuss current event headlines, starting with how "War is back on the menu," as President Trump ordered renewed attacks on Iran. Does this mean diplomacy has failed, or is Trump trying to intimidate Iran into forced cooperation (and not-coincidentally, intentionally manipulate US trading and investment markets)? Hear more on the Erick Erickson Show every weekday noon to 3pm.

Erick discusses the appointment of Darlene Graham-Norden (Lindsey Graham's sister) to the U.S. Senate and reflects on Graham's legacy. He dives deep into the growing radical left influence in the Democratic Party, from Rashida Tlaib and Ro Khanna to the funding of militant groups by figures like Fergie Chambers and Neville Roy Singham. Erick explores […]

In this powerful opening hour of The Erick Erickson Show, Erick pays tribute to the late Senator Lindsey Graham, who passed away at 71 from a tear in his aorta. Reflect on Graham's remarkable life — from raising his sister after losing both parents at 20, to his legendary defense of Brett Kavanaugh, tireless support […]

Erick breaks down the escalating crisis with Iran as the U.S. conducts strikes and President Trump announces America will guard the Strait of Hormuz — and get paid for it. Erick also discusses Lindsey Graham's final days pushing for strong action on Iran and Ukraine, along with the imminent appointment of Graham's sister, Darlene Graham-Norden, […]

Erick Erickson broadcasts live from Las Vegas and dives deep into the dramatic collapse of Graham Platner's Senate campaign in Maine. Platner officially drops out amid a flood of sexual misconduct allegations, unhinged rants, and media fallout — exposing the Democratic Party's poor vetting and desperate search for anti-establishment fighters. Erick discusses the broader anti-establishment […]

Vance is giving Iran everything it wants while lying to the American people, so it begs the question as to whether he can be trusted going forward.

Republicans in the Senate can scream about the filibuster and SAVE Act, but they all bailed to go home for the July 4th holiday, proving they are all full of it. Plus, the communists are taking over the Democratic Party, but will we let them take the country?

SCOTUS decided that words have actual meaning, not just the fulfillment of whatever schizophrenic emotion the left is currently suffering from.

Sadly, too many on the right prefer to believe a lie rather than be confronted with the truth.

Holy cow: the Trump administration is discovering a disturbing amount of healthcare fraud and you can probably guess who almost all the perps are in these cases. Plus, the march back to the right in South America is a direct result of the misery of socialism. A lesson we seem intent on ignoring here in […]

Democrats have always played footsie with communists but they went too far and the communists are now getting elected and wearing the party as a skin suit. Plus, Trump is great at convincing voters of his vision, but can't seem to manage it with elected officials.

The woke right of Podcastistan just love themselves some Russian propaganda sprinkled with a heavy dose of drooling over the Islamic dictatorship of Qatar. Plus, Democrats are going to really regret nominating Christianity-hating James Talarico.

It is such a deep and profound disappointment watching Trump and Vance gaslight Americans about their Iranian deal, which is worse than Obama's. Plus, Canada loves killing the innocent but not the criminal murderer.

SCOTUS released a handful of decisions today, but not the biggest ones. Plus, Christians in the US would rather cozy up to politicians they like than speak on Christian persecution in places like Lebanon.
