In this episode our conversation centres on cortisol—the hormone at that is the key navigator of your stress response—and why so many people feel exhausted, wired, and out of sync… even when they think they are doing everything “right.” In this episode, we explore what cortisol is, how cortisol works, what happens when your stress response becomes dysregulated, and why conventional approaches often miss the bigger picture. We'll also break down how functional testing can reveal patterns that standard labs overlook—giving you a clearer, more complete understanding of what your body needs to heal and perform at its best. My guest today is Elizabeth Gaines, Director of Education at Functional Diagnostic Nutrition® (FDN), where she leads curriculum design, live training and mentor development for one of the world's most respected functional health certification programmes. For more than a decade, Elizabeth worked in nonprofit trauma recovery, supporting victims of domestic minor sex trafficking. The relentless pace and emotional toll led to burnout and chronic illness. When conventional medicine dismissed her symptoms she turned to FDN, where she discovered how to uncover hidden healing opportunities through functional lab testing and personalised protocols. The approach helped her reclaim her energy, clarity and sense of purpose. Learning Points: • What cortisol actually does in the body when it's working properly • How functional lab testing changes the way we understand cortisol compared to standard testing • What the most important markers are to look at when assessing stress physiology Social Media: Website - https://www.functionaldiagnosticnutrition.com/ Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/FunctionalDiagnosticNutrition/ Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/fdntraining/ You Tube - https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC7xDnEKCe9gKeWZ2vbE3C8w Linkedin - https://www.linkedin.com/company/san-diego-natural-health-&-fitness-ctr/ Twitter - https://twitter.com/FDNtraining Podcast - https://www.functionaldiagnosticnutrition.com/health-detective-podcast/

Justin Gaines, an 18-year-old college freshman, vanished after a night out at a Georgia nightclub in November 2007. Despite years of investigations, tips, searches, and alleged confessions, Justin has never been found.Join Mike and Gibby as they discuss the disappearance of Justin Gaines. What makes this case so bizarre is that several people have implicated themselves in Justin's disappearance. But to date, no one has been charged. It seems that all of these stories have muddied the water so much that prosecutors are not sure they can get a conviction.You can help support the show at patreon.com/truecrimeallthetimeVisit the show's website at truecrimeallthetime.com for contact, merchandise, and donation informationAn Emash Digital productionSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Hour 1 opens with Dan Buck, Kim St. Onge, and Ethan Bright filling in for Marc Cox and immediately diving into culture war flashpoints surrounding women's sports, abortion politics, and conservative activism following a Missouri Right to Life event featuring Riley Gaines. The conversation highlights Gaines' warning against conservative complacency while also celebrating Jordy Bahl as an example of traditional female athletic leadership in modern sports culture. The hour then pivots into an extended breakdown of the Chicago Bears potentially abandoning Illinois, with sharp criticism aimed at J. B. Pritzker and Chicago leadership over soaring taxes, stalled stadium negotiations, sanctuary city spending, and economic decline pushing major organizations toward states like Indiana. In “Kim on a Whim,” Kim exposes the growing industry behind fake viral content, AI-driven engagement, bot amplification, and manipulated social media popularity tied to influencers, politics, and entertainment, including references to Justin Bieber and online political campaigns. The hour closes with a heated debate over comments from Jeff Bezos suggesting lower-income Americans should pay no federal taxes, leading into broader arguments about government dependency, taxpayer burdens, progressive economics, and fears of expanding state control over daily life.

Have you ever walked out of a doctor's office feeling dismissed — told that your labs were 'normal' while youknew in your body that something was profoundly wrong? You are not alone, and this episode may be the validation and the roadmap you have been searching for.Dana Irvine sits down with Elizabeth Gaines, Director of Education at Functional Diagnostic Nutrition® (FDN), for a deeply resonant conversation about what it truly means toinvestigate — not just manage — your health. Elizabeth shares her own remarkable transformation from burnout and chronic fatigue (fuelled by a decade of trauma-recovery work) to becoming one of the leading educators in the functional diagnostic space.Together, Dana and Elizabeth unpack the philosophy and practice behind FDN: why functional lab testingreveals what standard blood work misses, how the DRESS protocol (Diet, Rest,Exercise, Stress Reduction, and Supplementation) creates a sustainable foundation for healing, and why metabolic typing is the missing key for women who have tried every diet and still feel stuck.This episode is equal parts science, story, and empowerment — a master class in understanding why your body behaves the way it does, and what you can do about it right now.Elizabeth Gaines, MFA, MA, FDN-P is the Director of Education at Functional Diagnostic Nutrition® (FDN) — one of the world's most respected certification programs in functional health — where she leads curriculum design, live practitioner training, and mentor development.Her path to functional health began not in a laboratory, but in survival. For more than a decade Elizabeth ,served in nonprofit trauma recovery, supporting survivors of domestic minor sextrafficking. The relentless weight of that work eventually took a toll: compassion fatigue spiraled into chronic fatigue, depression, digestive dysfunction, and a profound sense of invisibility in her own body. Doctors told her it was "all in her head." She knew better.Through FDN, Elizabeth discovered how to identify hidden healing opportunities through functional lab testing that conventional medicine had missed — and she reclaimed her energy, joy, clarity, and purpose. Today she trains the trainers and guides clients back to their naturally vibrant state through the same evidence-informed, root-cause lens.Elizabeth operates her own functional wellness practice, Break Thru Burnout, specializing in chronic stress, burnout recovery, and the physiological impact of emotional depletion.

She also doubles down on her national advocacy against men competing in women's sports, saying real progress is being made but resistance remains strong at state and institutional levels.

Did Trump go too far this time? A viral AI-generated image allegedly showing Donald Trump as Christ has ignited a firestorm — and not just from critics, but from within his own base. Riley Gaines didn't hold back, warning that “God shall not be mocked” and calling for humility. The backlash quickly grew, forcing Trump to remove the image — but the drama didn't stop there. When pressed by CBS reporter Nora O'Donnell, Trump brushed off the controversy and even took a swipe at Gaines, yet she insists she still supports him and the America First movement. So what really happened? And is this a sign of cracks forming among Trump supporters?

We've hidden David Waldman somewhere in the United States. Follow the clues, find Kagro, and he will personally autograph the body part of his choice! Donald K. Trump might not be telling us the truth… about his height. When he stands next to people who are established to be his height, weight, etc., he seems to have embellished a bit… Of course, he could just be a moron. Trump heard that Riley Gaines might have dissed him but didn't recognize Riley as the participation trophy star of Mitch McConnell wannabe Andy Barr's campaign commercials. Gaines then had to apologize to Trump. This lying moron is the most powerful and weakest person on Earth and is destroying everything, everywhere, all at once. If Hungary can do it, we can too. In fact, Hungary is doing it for us too.

There is power in YOUR words! We are called to be women of action who speak God's truth with great love. Our loving Creator equips us with everything we need to speak up! When we embrace God's authority, He helps us lead with courage and strength. If you have ever felt silenced or nervous to use your voice, this conversation is for you!

Margo sits down with artist, writer, and creator Emily Gaines Demsky for a conversation centered on creativity, perspective, and the quiet power of noticing what's good. Emily makes vibrant floral paintings (symbols of hope and possibility), and is the founder of Tell Me 3 Good Things, a Substack community practice centered on noticing, naming, and sharing simple moments of goodness each day. Through her work, she invites others to shift their perspective in meaningful, life-giving ways.

We're bringing you an interview that originally aired in September of 2008. On March 20th 2026, Pastor Steve Gaines transitioned from this life into the eternal presence of Jesus Christ in Heaven. Pastor Steve and Donna Gaines joined me in the studio on that September date, after their first 2.5 years of serving at Bellevue Baptist Church. Brother Steve, as he liked to be called, had been presented to the Bellevue Church family as the next Senior Pastor, succeeding Dr. Adrian Rogers, on July 10, 2005, having served as pastor for nineteen years. Steve & Donna share the story of coming to Bellevue, Steve's original call into the ministry, how Donna & Steve's relationship started in college, rich history of Bellevue's ministry and previous pastors, Steve's auto-immune disease, trusting God through the hardships that we all face, and how Steve and Donna liked to spend personal time together. Let's continue to pray for Donna and the Gaines family, for Christ comfort and peace, as we listen to today's show and as the week's follow.

Five months.That's how long it took my entire life to fall apart.I became unexpectedly pregnant with twins—already a mom of two and married for twelve years.When I told my husband, he gave me an ultimatum: him… or the babies. I couldn't have both.I chose the babies.I didn't like him very much anyway.Within weeks, I was on hospitalized bedrest, managing two kids at home with a husband who had already checked out in every way.I was suddenly single in every way that mattered.A few fun facts: My oldest daughter was born after 36 hours of labor, minutes from a c-section. The midwife literally pulled her out. My water broke on the 9th hole -- I was playing golf!My son was born accidentally at home! Yup...I'm one of those women you read about!I've been an entrepreneur since I was 11.

A best-of-the best podcast from the Journeys of Discovery archives recorded on-location at Fort Gaines, Alabama.

It's Friday, March 13th, A.D. 2026. This is The Worldview in 5 Minutes heard on 140 radio stations and at www.TheWorldview.com.  I'm Adam McManus. (Adam@TheWorldview.com) By Adam McManus Why some Iranians dance during war Why are some Iranians dancing while war is unfolding in their country? For more than 47 years, the Islamic regime ruling Iran has governed through fear, oppression, and bloodshed, reports International Christian Concern. The hands of this regime are stained with the blood of thousands of Iranian and American citizens. It has been one of the world's leading sponsors of terrorism, spreading violence far beyond Iran's borders. At home, it has relentlessly persecuted Christians — executing some, imprisoning many, and forcing countless others into exile. Believers have been torn from their families, their homes, and their homeland, scattered across the world simply because they chose to follow Jesus Christ. When some Iranians celebrate or dance these days, it is not because they love war. It is because they have lived for decades under a darkness that few outside the country can fully comprehend. For many Iranians, these moments carry the fragile hope that the long night of oppression may finally be nearing its end. And freedom might be dawning once again. Congress hopes to Safeguard Women from Chemical Abortion On Wednesday, Republican Senator Josh Hawley of Missouri took to the podium in the Senate Judiciary hearing room to deliver a clear message: the abortion pill Mifepristone is not just risky — it's “inherently dangerous.” And it's up to Congress to regulate it, reports The Washington Stand. At a press conference, the Missouri senator unveiled his new legislation, the Safeguarding Women from Chemical Abortion Act. This bill seeks to strip Mifepristone — the drug responsible for the majority of U.S. abortions — of its longstanding approval from the Food and Drug Administration. According to recent data from the Guttmacher Institute, chemical abortions made up 63% of all abortions in 2023, with the trend only accelerating in the years since. Senator Hawley didn't hold back, blasting the FDA for letting mail-order shipments flood the country, wiping out state-level protections for the unborn and leaving women to face severe complications. HAWLEY: “In 11% of cases, women who take the drug, Mifepristone for use in an abortion experience a serious adverse health event. Now, that's the technical term. What it means, in practice, is internal infections, sepsis, hemorrhaging, a trip to the emergency room, a life-threatening condition. In 11% of cases!” Hawley added, “It is time for Congress to do something about this racket, And it is a racket. It is time for Congress to ban the use of Mifepristone for abortion, and it is time for Congress to give the victims — the survivors — … the right to recover.” He framed the fight as a double victory: shielding vulnerable women from what many see as a profit-driven chemical experiment and protecting unborn life when the courts and agencies will not. Call your Congressman today and urge him or her to vote for The Safeguarding Women from Chemical Abortion Act. The number is 202-224-3121. That's 202-224-3121. You can call and get a live operator 24 hours a day, 7 days a week and simply leave a message. The manufacturers and distributors of this heinous Abortion Kill Pill are well described in Isaiah 59:7. “Their feet rush into sin; they are swift to shed innocent blood. They pursue evil schemes; acts of violence mark their ways.” Armed man rammed truck into Michigan synagogue On Thursday, authorities say a man, armed with a rifle, rammed his truck into Temple Israel in West Bloomfield, Michigan, before the vehicle caught fire, prompting an active shooter response, reports NewsNation. Oakland County Sheriff Michael Bouchard said the synagogue's security team engaged the suspect with gunfire after he breached the building and drove down a hallway. The suspect was later found dead. His body was badly burned. BOUCHARD: “No kids, this is the important thing, no kids or no staff was injured whatsoever. One of the lead security people was hit by the car and was taken to the hospital for treatment. That individual should be okay.” The sheriff said the suspect appears to have been the only person in the vehicle. CNN host makes humiliating on-air correction after getting NYC terror attack story wrong During a “Stop the Islamic Takeover of New York City” rally on Saturday, two men were arrested for throwing improvised explosive devices at anti-Islam protesters. Authorities later discovered these men were inspired by the Islamic State terrorist group. The incident took place outside Gracie Mansion, the official residence of New York Democratic Mayor Zohran Mamdani. However, CNN's Abby Phillip, host of “NewsNight,” claimed on Tuesday that the men were not targeting the crowd, but the mayor, a Muslim himself, reports The Western Journal. PHILLIP: “Two Republicans say Muslims don't belong here after an attempted terror attack on New York Mayor Zohran Mamdami.” Samuel Short wrote, “The intent was obvious as CNN and Phillip would love to blame anyone who criticizes Islam as a violent terrorist. Oh, the irony.” On Wednesday morning, Phillip published a correction on the social media platform X. She also issued a correction on air Wednesday night. PHILIP: “This morning I issued a correction first thing in the morning, on X, for a mistake that I made in last night's show. But I also wanted to do so on air as well. “I incorrectly said that the bombs that were thrown by ISIS-inspired suspects in New York over the weekend were directed at Mayor Mamdani. They were not. I failed to catch and correct that mistake in real time, and I take full responsibility for that.” Former Southern Baptist Convention President entered hospice Former Southern Baptist Convention President Steve Gaines, age 68, has entered hospice care, over two years after he was diagnosed with kidney cancer, reports The Christian Post. Bellevue Baptist Church Pastor Ben Mandrell, who replaced Gaines as lead pastor of the Cordova, Tennessee-based megachurch last year, wrote a letter to the congregation earlier this week explaining the situation. He wrote, “Steve has faithfully served the Lord and shepherded so many people through the years. He's been a great pastor, mentor and friend. Let's honor him and his family by lifting them up before the Lord.” Butler Bill, which prohibited teaching evolution, signed into law And finally, on this day, March 13, 1925, Tennessee Governor Austin Peay signed the "Butler Bill” which prohibited the teaching of the false theory of macro evolution in public schools. The law was introduced by Tennessee House of  Representatives member John Washington Butler, for whom the law was named. The law was challenged and upheld later that year in a famous trial in Dayton, Tennessee called the Scopes Trial which involved a raucous confrontation between prosecution attorney and Christian leader, William Jennings Bryan, and prominent defense attorney and religious agnostic, Clarence Darrow. On parental rights, Bryan said, “The parents have a right to say that no teacher, paid by their money, shall rob their children of faith in God.” On the nature of evolution, Bryan said, "The first objection to Darwinism is that it is only a guess and was never anything more. It is millions of guesses strung together.” And, on his Christian worldview, Bryan said, "I would rather begin with God and reason down than begin with a piece of dirt and reason up.” Sadly, William Jennings Bryan died five days after the Scopes Trial concluded. The Butler Law was not repealed until 1967. Genesis 1:1 declares, “In the beginning, God created the heavens and the Earth.” Close And that's The Worldview on this Friday, March 13th, in the year of our Lord 2026. Follow us on X or subscribe for free by Spotify, Amazon Music, or by iTunes or email to our unique Christian newscast at www.TheWorldview.com.  Plus, you can get the Generations app through Google Play or The App Store.

Erica Gaines came into law enforcement as the Knife Girl — selling switchblades at police conferences, making small talk with cops, building relationships she didn't fully understand. She had opinions. She thought shooting someone in the leg was a reasonable ask. Then she stepped into a use-of-force simulator. One domestic violence scenario, a shock pack on her lower back, and two minutes of chaos later, she walked out shaking. That experience rewired her. She's been inside this world ever since, running TacMobility — bringing neuroscience, stress physiology, and resiliency training to law enforcement agencies across the country. Suicide is the number one cop killer in America. Not line-of-duty deaths. Not ambushes. Not traffic stops. Only half of agencies have any wellness program at all. Of those, only 23% are teaching actual resiliency skills. We get into what that gap costs — and why wellness and resiliency aren't the same thing, and confusing them is part of the problem. We talk about internal law enforcement culture — why officers say the body armor on their back is for their own admin. Why cynicism becomes a slow leak that doesn't stop at retirement. Why the most important thing a cop can do might be building a social circle that has nothing to do with the job. We also get into dispatchers, women in law enforcement, human trafficking in Kalispell, and what happens to your identity the day you turn in your badge.

In this episode of The Sisterhood of Sweat, we sit down with Elizabeth Gaines, Director of Education at Functional Diagnostic Nutrition (FDN), to talk about burnout, stress physiology, and how unresolved emotional patterns can quietly drive chronic illness. Elizabeth's path into functional medicine began in survival mode. For more than a decade, she worked in nonprofit trauma recovery, supporting victims of domestic minor sex trafficking. The emotional intensity and chronic stress eventually led to severe burnout and declining health. When conventional medicine dismissed her symptoms as psychological, she knew there had to be a deeper explanation. That search led her to Functional Diagnostic Nutrition®, where she learned how to identify hidden stressors through advanced lab testing and personalized healing protocols. By addressing hormone imbalance, gut dysfunction, immune stress, and nervous system dysregulation, she was able to restore her own energy, clarity, and resilience. Today, Elizabeth leads curriculum development, live practitioner training, and mentor education for one of the world's most respected functional health certification programs. She now helps others break free from cycles of fatigue, co-dependency, chronic stress, and frustration. In This Episode, We Discuss: • Why burnout is biochemical — not just emotional • How chronic stress disrupts hormones, digestion, immunity, and sleep • The link between trauma, co-dependency, and physical dysfunction • What functional lab testing can reveal that standard labs often miss • Why "it's all in your head" is one of the most damaging messages in healthcare • How rewriting your personal narrative supports sustainable healing • Building resilient, healthy communities that foster long-term wellbeing Elizabeth blends lived experience with science-based insight, showing how stress physiology and personal story are deeply intertwined — and how healing becomes sustainable when both are addressed.

Political activist Riley Gaines calls in to talk about transgender-related controversies, recent violent incidents involving transgender individuals, and what they describe as Democrats and media using labels like “racist” and “misogynistic” to silence criticism. Gaines argues that the “affirmation model” harms children, contends the suicide narrative is used to pressure parents, and says some activists are taught that “words are violence,” which she believes can justify real violence. Sid and Riley also discuss parental rights, with Gaines speaking as a new mother about government overreach, and review progress on keeping men out of women's sports, citing 27 states' laws, Trump executive orders, and the need for Congress to act while naming states they say are defying the orders. The conversation ends with criticism of Olympic athletes who disparage the U.S. and of reporters asking athletes political questions, which Gaines says is baiting them to attack Trump rather than focusing on sport.

Burnout isn't just mental. It's not laziness. It's not a mindset problem. It's physiological. In this episode, I sit down with Elizabeth Gaines, Director of Education at Functional Diagnostic Nutrition® (FDN) and a Functional Wellness Practitioner specializing in burnout recovery. Before stepping into the functional health space, Elizabeth spent over a decade working in nonprofit trauma recovery, supporting victims of domestic minor sex trafficking. The relentless pace, emotional intensity, and lack of boundaries eventually led her into full-blown burnout and chronic fatigue. When conventional medicine dismissed her symptoms as "normal" or emotional, she turned to functional lab testing. Through FDN's data-driven approach, she uncovered hidden dysfunction, rebuilt her health, and now trains practitioners around the world to do the same. In this conversation, we unpack the hidden physiology of burnout — what's really happening inside your body when you can't "push through" anymore. What You'll Learn in This Episode The difference between stress and true burnout Why your labs can look "normal" while you feel exhausted How chronic stress impacts hormones and motivation The role of sympathetic vs. parasympathetic balance Why productivity culture fuels depletion When it's time to test instead of guess Connect with Elizabeth & FDN Website: https://www.functionaldiagnosticnutrition.com/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/fdntraining/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/FunctionalDiagnosticNutrition/ YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC7xDnEKCe9gKeWZ2vbE3C8w Burnout isn't your fault — but healing it is your responsibility, and this episode will show you where to begin.  

North Carolina's baseball season gets going with the Indiana Hoosiers coming to Boshamer for a three game series with Opening Day set for Friday, February 13th.

In this episode of Lovers, therapist Keir Gaines shares a personal and professional reflection on how resentment builds when men are taught to silence their emotional truth. Keir opens up about a pivotal moment in his own relationship, when he realized that his partner’s tone was hurting his feelings, and that his fear of naming it, out of concern that he would sound “effeminate” or not man enough, was quietly turning into resentment. What started as self-protection slowly became emotional distance, until he reached a breaking point where honesty felt less risky than staying silent. Together, we unpack how masculinity norms shape emotional expression, why unspoken hurt often masquerades as resentment, and how learning to articulate emotional impact can transform intimacy rather than threaten it. This conversation explores the cost of swallowing feelings, the courage it takes to speak before resentment hardens, and what becomes possible when men allow themselves to be emotionally legible in their relationships. This episode isn’t about blame or tone-policing. It’s about emotional responsibility, relational repair, and the freedom that comes from finally saying the thing you were afraid would make you sound weak.

During an NCAA women's swimming championship in March 2022, two seniors tied for fifth place. The race was unremarkable except for one fact: One of the swimmers, Lia Thomas, was a transgender woman. The swimmer she tied with, Riley Gaines, believed the NCAA never should have allowed her to participate.The matchup, and Gaines' subsequent transformation into a leading anti-trans activist, has fueled a growing movement to “save women's sports” from trans women—and a conservative crusade against trans rights more broadly. This week on Reveal, we examine Gaines' rise and radicalization, as her rhetoric shifts from calling out NCAA policy to calling trans women  sexual predators.Over the last year, the anti-trans movement has reached a tipping point. Trans girls are banned from girls' school sports in the majority of states. The NCAA and US Olympic and Paralympic committees have banned trans women from women's competitions. The Supreme Court is currently considering the issue, too.Then we dive into the science to understand how gender-affirming hormone therapy affects trans women's performance—and what questions science still has not answered around fairness in women's sports.Finally, we return to the swimming pool, as reporter Imogen Sayers speaks with Meghan Cortez-Fields, one of the last transgender swimmers to compete as a woman in the NCAA.

This week, we're bringing you something a bit different. Our reporter Madison Pauly recently teamed up with journalist and podcaster Pablo Torre for a special episode of his investigative show, Pablo Torre Finds Out. The episode is a deep dive into right-wing superstar Riley Gaines, a swimmer who tied a transgender woman for fifth place and became a viral figure with outsized influence within the MAGA movement. Pauly spent six months digging into the money behind Gaines' anti-trans empire and interviewing Gaines' former teammates and competitors. She uncovers how the swimmer is profiting from her newfound fame as a generational conservative activist and explores how a lawsuit Gaines filed against the NCAA, which will be decided by the Supreme Court next year, could change everything for trans athletes.Pablo Torre Finds Out is produced by Meadowlark Media and distributed by The Athletic.

Meet my friends, Clay Travis and Buck Sexton! If you love Verdict, the Clay Travis and Buck Sexton Show might also be in your audio wheelhouse. Politics, news analysis, and some pop culture and comedy thrown in too. Here’s a sample episode recapping four takeaways. Give the guys a listen and then follow and subscribe wherever you get your podcasts. Get Ready to VOTE Election Day 2025. The hour kicks off with a discussion on the upcoming elections in New York City, Virginia, and New Jersey, emphasizing the stakes and voter turnout trends. Clay shares a personal anecdote about voting locally and previews an interview with Riley Gaines, who recently faced backlash from Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez over her stance on protecting women’s sports. The conversation quickly pivots to the New York City mayoral race, spotlighting controversial candidate Zohran Mamdani. Clay and Buck dissect Mamdani’s shifting narratives, including his disputed claims about Islamophobia post-9/11 and radical past statements such as “Defund the NYPD” and linking police to the IDF. They analyze why voters seem unfazed by these revelations and criticize Andrew Cuomo’s lackluster campaign strategy. The hosts warn that Mamdani’s progressive platform—featuring ideas like government-run grocery stores and fare-free buses—reflects a dangerous trend toward socialist policies that could devastate city infrastructure and small businesses. The "White Men Are Evil" Argument Clay and Buck discuss Zohran Mamdani, the leading candidate for New York City mayor, and dissect his radical platform and controversial family background. They highlight statements made by Mamdani’s father, a Columbia University professor, who accused the United States of inspiring Nazi genocide through its treatment of Native Americans. Clay and Buck push back hard, offering a detailed historical rebuttal that includes references to colonial history, tribal warfare, and global conquest, arguing that the left’s narrative is rooted in anti-American sentiment and historical ignorance. The conversation expands to critique the broader Democratic leadership, including figures like Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, Chuck Schumer, Hakeem Jeffries, and Gavin Newsom, warning that the “New York City liberal” and “California liberal” brands are becoming toxic in middle America. They praise more moderate Democratic mayors like Daniel Lurie in San Francisco and Muriel Bowser in Washington, D.C., for showing signs of pragmatism, especially in working with President Trump on crime reduction and urban policy. Trump '28 Unity Ticket? record-breaking highs in the S&P 500, Dow Jones, and NASDAQ, crediting President Trump’s economic policies for the surge. He contrasts this with media narratives from earlier in the year that predicted economic collapse, emphasizing the disconnect between Wall Street performance and lingering ground-level effects from the Biden-era economy. The hosts then pivot to Trump’s Asia tour, highlighting his meetings with leaders in Japan, South Korea, and potentially North Korea’s Kim Jong-un. Trump’s comments aboard Air Force One spark speculation about a JD Vance–Marco Rubio unity ticket for 2028, with Clay and Buck debating the plausibility of Trump stepping aside while endorsing his successors. A major segment features Trump’s challenge to Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (AOC) and Rep. Jasmine Crockett, mocking their intelligence and inviting them to take cognitive tests. Crockett fires back, accusing Trump of elitism and racial obsession, prompting Clay and Buck to critique the intellectual caliber of current congressional representatives across party lines. Riley Gaines vs. AOC Riley Gaines discusses her recent clash with AOC over women’s sports. Gaines shares her experience as a new mom, pushing back against cultural narratives that discourage young women from motherhood. She also responds to AOC’s dismissive comments about her athletic achievements, defending her fifth-place NCAA ranking and criticizing the left’s hypocrisy on women’s sports and fairness.
