Use code AGENCY171 DEAR WLS Question from PlowGuyDave from Colorado When is Aaron coming back? Love, PlowGuyDave Question from Rob K from Connecticut Rob K From ConnecticutDear WLS Hey guys it's Rob again! I finally got my approval paperwork on my Aero M5 in my state after having to register it. Since it will probably be my only AR-10 I'll ever own unless I move I'm looking for ideas on a final build for it. I'm very similar to Nick where I don't want to switch around uppers on my lower. If you guys could only build one AR-10 how would each of you do it? Caliber? Barrel length? Optic? Max range I have access to is 200 yards. I'm open to anything on my final build including switching to 6.5 Creedmoor. It's currently set up with a 18inch Aero upper in 308 with a swampfox 5-25×56 FFP Warhawk. Before Jeremey comments I know the scope is massive for that rifle and range I have. I got a crazy deal on it and couldn't say no but realized it's not ment for my setup. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated! Bonus question! What bolt rifle would you throw that Warhawk on always down to buy another rifle for the collection. Many thanks guys!!! #WLS is life!!! Question from David Lettuce from TN David Lettuce – Hey Jeremy, how does it feel knowing a teenaged future butter bar is stacking insurgents and getting a knife stateside at Old Dominion while you battle a head cold (it's probably monkeypox)? #scoreboard Question from Bill T from TX Bill T from Tx. I am looking at getting the Bodyguard 2.0. Have y'all heard of anyone making a +3 mag extension for them yet? I can't find anything, though you might have inside info.

250 years of freedom and independence is something every one of us should be thankful for. Too often we take for granted the freedoms and liberties we enjoy and forget there was a price that many paid. There were 56 signers to the Declaration of Independence that pledged their lives, their fortunes and their sacred honor. Sadly today, there are those who desire the downfall of our nation, trying to destroy celebrations and recognition of this milestone. Further, there is erosion that has taken place trying to take away the values and freedoms we hold dear. We must be ever vigilant or this cherished treasure, America, will vanish before our very eyes. Not only will we discuss these matters today, but we also take a look at the author of the original draft of the Declaration of Independence, Thomas Jefferson. Joining us is Dr. Jerry Newcombe, Executive Director of the Providence Forum, a division of Coral Ridge Ministries. He is also a columnist and podcast host for Providence Forum and has produced a series of documentaries on America's Judeo-Christian roots. He is the author or co-author of 33 books including George Washington's Sacred Fire, The Book that Made America: How the Bible Formed Our Nation, American Amnesia: Is America Paying the Price for Forgetting God, the Source of our Liberty, and Doubting Thomas? The Life and Legacy of Thomas Jefferson. Jerry is also senior pastor at New Presbyterian Church in Wilton Manors, FL. More information: ProvidenceForum.org

Most people think their biggest weakness is the problem. It's not. It's that they're only using half of themselves. George Washington won a war by being the world's most honest man — and its most convincing liar. Steve Jobs built the future by dreaming like a child and obsessing like an engineer. These aren't contradictions. They're the formula behind the psychology of excellence. The most powerful thing you can do isn't fix every flaw — it's finding the one opposing trait that supercharges what you're already great at. Why "cognitive entrenchment" is quietly capping your potential, even if you're highly experienced How to identify the single trait pairing that will unlock your next level Why urgency without patience isn't drive — it's just anxiety with a to-do list Stop trying to be well-rounded.

Benjamin L. Carp discusses his book on the 1776 fire. As George Washington enters New York in the spring of 1776, he finds a politically fractured and largely depopulated city. Most residents had fled to avoid the coming conflict, leaving the town diminished. Washington remains suspicious of loyalist pockets while the British Navy controls the harbor. The segment highlights rebel outrage following the British burning of Charles Town and Falmouth, setting a tense backdrop for the eventual Manhattan conflagration. (1)1760

That jaw-dropping history is just one of the realities we dig into with author Katherine Goodwin Tone as we explore her debut novel, The King's Broad Arrow, an American Revolution adventure that doubles as a coming-of-age story about courage.In this episode of Cross Word Books, we speak  about Sam Nevins, a 14-year-old boy living in Revolutionary-era Maine who believes he's the only person with no desire to fight and no courage to offer. Through Sam's journey, we explore how courage is often less about personality and more about the choices we make when fear would rather send us home.Drawing on years of working with children and teaching, Katherine discusses themes of responsibility, friendship, happiness, and moral growth. We also dive into the world of Revolutionary America, exploring the impact of the printing press, censorship, banned books, Enlightenment thought, and the influence of Thomas Paine and his famous pamphlet Common Sense.If you enjoy historical fiction, young adult novels, American Revolution history, or thoughtful conversations with authors, this episode is for you.Cross Word Books — Where Cultural Clues Lead to the Truth of the Word.

John Hancock: first to sign, first to invest in America’s independence DB132603 Author: Randall, Willard Sterne Reading Time: 7 hours, 15 minutes Read by: Steve Hendrickson Subjects: Biography of Heads of State and Political Figures, U.S. History, Government and Politics “A contemporary of Samuel Adams, John Adams, George Washington, and the Marquis de Lafayette, Hancock's contacts read like a who's who of the American Revolution. But shockingly little has been written about the man himself — and current biographies tend to over-rely on critical portrayals by his political opponents. John Hancock the story of a man who deserves far more acknowledgment for his involvement in the American Revolution than previously credited — and award-winning scholar Willard Sterne Randall is determined to give him his due at last. Born to relatively modest means, Hancock was sent to live with his wealthy uncle and aunt as a child, who raised him as their own and prepared him to take over the family company. An incredibly successful businessman, Hancock began to get involved in politics in the mid-1760s. He quickly rose in the ranks, eventually serving as the president of the Continental Congress and the first governor of Massachusetts. John Hancock details all of the major moments in the Revolution, from the Boston Tea Party to the battles of Lexington and Concord to the signing of the Declaration of Independence. Hancock's actions fundamentally altered each of these events — and ultimately the course of the United States — in ways never taught in the history books. Randall also dives into less-known parts of Hancock's life with nuance and compassion, including his education and controversial work with Harvard; his long courtship and complicated marriage to Dorothy Quincy; and his close relationship and eventual bitter rivalry with Samuel Adams. John Hancock was immensely popular in Massachusetts at the time of the Revolution, but his lack of personal writings have allowed him to be pushed aside in favor of easier biographies to tell. Through extensive research, Randall aims to restore Hancock to his rightful place, celebrated for his achievements as one of our Founding Fathers at last.” — Goodreads. Unrated. Commercial audiobook.

This week we bring you a conversation between Eric Cohen, president and CEO of Tikvah, and the former vice-president of the United States, Mike Pence. The conversation was recorded before a live audience at the Fund for American Studies, and we are grateful to our friends at TFAS for the invitation and for the work they do: forming young leaders in the principles of individual liberty, free markets, and honorable leadership, and sending them out to advance the cause of a free society in their communities and around the world. The conversation opens where so much American reflection on these questions begins, with George Washington's letters to the Jews of Newport and Savannah—the promise of religious liberty on the one hand, and the vision of America as a providential, almost-chosen nation on the other. Those two ideas do not sit together easily, and Cohen and the vice-president think together about what they mean and how they relate: the biblical sources of the founding, the place of Scripture in American education, the case for school choice and the renewal of the universities, and the meaning of federalism in the conservative project. At the heart of this conversation is a fascinating discussion about American expressions of Christianity. Cohen, speaking as a religious Jew, believes that the strengthening of American Christianity is the surest hope for American renewal, and he also warns that a strain of anti-Semitism now gathering strength on the political right would turn that Christianity to perverse ends. To these comments Vice-President Pence adds his reflections about religious culture, and together, Cohen and Pence arrive at a description of a Hebraic Christianity and a Hebraic America—a country that understands the Hebrew Bible not as an atavistic relic, but as the foundation it has in fact always been.

Today On The Eric Metaxas Show, Eric gives a major update from the Revolution book tour after his book debuts at #2 on the New York Times bestseller list and #1 on Amazon. Eric discusses the BookScan numbers, Jill Biden's book, and why getting the true story of America's founding into the mainstream matters. Then Eric talks with Tim Barton of Wall Builders about America's Christian founding, the real meaning of separation of church and state, Jefferson, Madison, John Adams, George Washington, George Whitefield, the Sons of Liberty, the Continental Congress, and why the story of the American Revolution cannot be told honestly without God.⭐ ORDER NOW:Revolution: The Birth of the Greatest Nation in the History of the World

Discover the story of John Laurens, the overlooked American Revolution Founder who worked alongside George Washington and Alexander Hamilton, but dared to challenge his own allies over America's greatest contradiction. In this episode of America's Founding Series, part of The P.A.S. Report Podcast, Professor Nick Giordano reveals how a wealthy South Carolina aristocrat risked his fortune, status, and reputation to advance a vision of liberty that applied to all people. As America approaches its 250th anniversary, Laurens' story offers a powerful lesson about moral courage, the American Revolution, and why true liberty demands consistency. What You'll Learn In This Episode: Why John Laurens became one of George Washington's most trusted officers during the American Revolution.  How Enlightenment ideas transformed Laurens from a privileged planter's son into a fierce advocate for liberty.  The details behind the bold plan Laurens proposed to raise Black regiments and grant freedom in exchange for military service.  Why many Patriot leaders chose political pragmatism while Laurens refused to compromise on principle.  What Laurens' life reveals about moral courage, political consistency, and defending liberty in our modern landscape.  John Laurens never became president, signed the Constitution, or held high political office. Yet his willingness to challenge his own side and confront uncomfortable truths left a lasting mark on the American story. His life serves as a reminder that preserving freedom requires more than loyalty to a cause. It requires fidelity to the principles that make that cause worth defending.

At his first inauguration, George Washington made a very carefully calibrated political statement: he wore a brown suit. It was tailored from a weave of superfine wool made in Hartford, Connecticut, and was so far from being the crude homespun which was for some an emblem of a proud American—or, for British cartoonists, of crude Brother Jonathan—that some newspapers criticized Washington for wearing a suit of imported fabric. The cloth seemed too good to have been made in America.Washington wore two suits that day. In the evening, at the inaugural ball, he wore a suit of imported purple silk. The choice of these two suits, argues my guest Chloe Chapin in her new book Suitable: The Sartorial Revolution and the Fashioning of Modern Men, shows a dividing line between two eras: an eighteenth century of Washington's youth and early middle age in which men wore a wide variety of textiles in a cornucopia of colors and textures; and a democratic age in which drab and severe signaled liberty and equality among men. Chloe Chapin holds a PhD in American Studies and has worked for more than two decades as a costume designer for Broadway productions, opera companies, and Shakespeare festivals. Suitable: The Sartorial Revolution and the Fashioning of Modern Men is her first book.

THEY CALLED REAGAN A RACIST FOR CALLING FOR WELFARE REFORM. THE USDA JUST FOUND 244,000 DEAD PEOPLE STILL ON THE ROLLS. Reagan described the fraud in 1976 and the press called it fantasy for fifty years — today we trace the line from Linda Taylor's Cadillac to the Roman grain dole to 4.3 million off the SNAP rolls and explain why what Brooke Rollins just did is something no Roman emperor ever managed. Then we take the Wall Street Journal's story calling North Korea the world's most surprising economic success story and run it through the same template Lloyd George used when he rode the autobahn in 1936 and came home calling Hitler the George Washington of Germany. Camellia from Americans for Prosperity Missouri joins us on Pete Hegseth landing Mormons outside the Christian column while erasing atheist and pagan service members entirely.

In 250 jaar jaar telden de Verenigde Staten van Amerika 47 presidenten. Wie waren zij? Hoe deden ze het, als staatshoofd en als politiek leider? Wie van hen zetten écht de toon? En hoe kijken wij nu naar mensen als Abraham Lincoln, Harry Truman, Richard Nixon en Donald Trump? Jaap Jansen en PG Kroeger praten hierover met professor Michael Nelson van Rhodes College in Memphis, eminent kenner, auteur en samensteller van reeksen boeken over het ambt, de impact en het leven van presidenten. *** This is a Dutch podcast, but from minute 6 on, the conversation is in English. Deze aflevering is mede mogelijk gemaakt met donaties van luisteraars die we hiervoor hartelijk danken. Word ook vriend van de show! Heb je belangstelling om in onze podcast te adverteren of ons te sponsoren? Zend ons een mailtje en wij zoeken contact. *** 'President' was met de komt van de Amerikaanse Grondwet in 1787 een bestuurlijke vondst en politiek experiment. Deze functie bestond nog nergens. Hoe deze in te vullen, wist eigenlijk niemand. Michael Nelson schetst kleurrijk hoe George Washington dit allemaal zelf moest uitvinden en hoe hij wonderlijk goed erin slaagde die rol ook voor zijn opvolgers inhoud, richting en stijl te geven. Na hem zouden anderen deze functie verder kleur geven. Andrew Jackson (1829-1837) ging met veto's in tegen het Congres, als anti-elite politicus. Teddy Roosevelt (1901 - 1909) was de man die als moderne populist nieuwe media als magazines en zelfs film ging inzetten. Zijn neef Franklin Roosevelt (1933 - 1945) professionaliseerde het Witte Huis als zijn persoonlijke apparaat en machtscentrum, zelfs op wereldschaal. Elke president nadien is zo hun opvolger. Nelson relativeert hoe 'zwaar' de baan van de president is. Het Witte Huis levert immers een gedegen machinerie die de bewoner bijna alles uit handen kan nemen. Wel zie je dat presidenten er soms vereenzamen, opgesloten raken in hun stress en daardoor ongelukkig en stuurloos worden. De baan laat het karakter van een president heel zichtbaar worden. "President worden, onthult wie je echt bent," zegt Nelson. Zo bleek de eenvoudige Harry Truman ongedachte kwaliteiten van leiderschap en daadkracht te hebben, terwijl Richard Nixon zeker een briljant politicus was, maar in de greep raakte van zijn demonen. Donald Trump is volgens Nelson een fundamentele breuk: hij voelt niet aan wat de rol van staatshoofd betekent. Kenmerkend noemt hij hoe Trump '250 jaar VS’ viert. Niet het ideaal van ‘leven, vrijheid en het nastreven van geluk' staat centraal, maar zijn persoonlijk hobbyisme. "Hij wil bij leven nog overal zijn naam op de gevels gedrukt zien." De historische dynamiek en de vaste waarden in het ambt van president hebben grote invloed op ons oordeel over hoe die 47 heren hun rol als politiek leider en staatshoofd invulden. We kijken meestal terug vanuit de politieke normen van onze eigen tijd. Daardoor daalt en stijgt de reputatie van verschillende van hen soms verrassend. Presidenten als Ulysses Grant, Harry Truman en Dwight Eisenhower bijvoorbeeld, werden pas later veel meer gewaardeerd. Wat Nelson betreft staan eigenlijk alleen de drie min of meer permanent hoogst beoordeelden op een vast voetstuk. "Washington, Lincoln en Franklin Roosevelt blijven het rolmodel. Zij moesten alle drie het ambt in ongekende omstandigheden bekleden en dat deden ze briljant. En ja, ze stierven meteen, dat hielp hun reputatie ook wel." Michael Nelson heeft voor de luisteraars nog een reeks niet te missen tips. Bij welke bibliotheek van welke president moet je echt gaan kijken? Welke biografie van welke president niet overslaan? Maar ook: wie wil Trump echt als zijn opvolger kronen en waarom niét JD Vance? Maar wat doet Frank Sinatra in deze aflevering? *** Verder lezen Het boek dat het beste aansluit bij deze aflevering is The American Presidency: Origins and Development, 1776-2025.

THE REPUBLIC HAS ALWAYS HAD CHARLATANS. THE ONLY DIFFERENCE NOW IS THEY HAVE PODCASTS, CABLE NEWS CONTRACTS, AND MILLIONS OF FOLLOWERS. Today on Wake Up America, we trace the charlatan problem from the founding era to the modern media machine. Dr. Benjamin Church spied for the British. Benedict Arnold was grifting before West Point. The Conway Cabal tried to remove George Washington through anonymous attacks. James Wilkinson commanded the U.S. Army while secretly taking Spanish money. Then we bring the pattern forward to Hunter Biden, Candace Owens, Tucker Carlson, Scott Pelley, Ro Khanna, and the modern system that rewards the costume long after the record has fallen apart.

“M” is for Murray, George Washington (1853-1926). Congressman. During the last two decades of the nineteenth century, Murray acquired an influential role in Republican Party affairs.

With the passion, erudition, and irrepressible wit that have become his signature, Eric Metaxas's REVOLUTION: The Birth of the Greatest Nation in the History of the World brings the epic of America's birth to life so fully that you will feel you are a part of the story, which is precisely the point. By turns deeply moving, gripping, and spectacularly entertaining, these are the stories every American must know, including some of history's noblest heroes-and some despicable villains.REVOLUTION also touches on the role that sacrifice, character, and faith played in the great struggle for "the Sacred Cause" of liberty. George Washington, John Adams, Nathan Hale, Henry Knox, Horatio Gates, Israel Putnam, Benedict Arnold and many others all come to life for a new generation of Americans.At more than 500 pages-with photos, maps, and illustrations-REVOLUTION is definitive and sweeping, an astonishing epic containing a dazzling array of stories, ranging from the explosive events that led up to Lexington and Concord, all the way through the impossible twists and turns of the war itself-including the Battle of Bunker Hill, the Crossing of the Delaware, Saratoga, and the bitter winter at Valley Forge-all the way to the final victory in Yorktown and "The World Turned Upside Down."Unless we ourselves know the true story of the Revolution-what some have called America's "founding myth"-we cannot play the role we are meant to play in the Revolution that still continues today.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/arroe-collins-like-it-s-live--4113802/support.

This is the audio from a live streaming episode on June 3, 2026. Seguin Light Station, photo by Jeremy D’Entremont Seguin Island Light Station is about two and a half miles off of the mouth of the Kennebec River in Maine. The establishment of a light station on Seguin was approved by president George Washington in 1793, and the buildings were completed in 1796. The 53-foot stone tower that still stands was constructed in 1857 along with a duplex keepers' house. A new first-order Fresnel lens was installed, and that lens remains in operation today. The light was automated in 1985 and the keepers were removed. Concerned local citizens  founded the Friends of Seguin Island Light Station in 1986. In February 1998, under the Maine Lights Program, ownership of the property was transferred to the group. There are two guests in the episode. Chris Hall was the registrar and curator of exhibits at the Maine Maritime Museum in Bath and he's now the historian for FOSILS. Tip Koehler is a retired Naval architect with 41 years in naval combatant design, manufacturing, and testing on Bath built ships. and is the vice president of the Friends of Seguin Island Light Station.

Episode 343: 06/01/2026 This week's highlights include never tell a lie, mental health awareness, crack, and more. The Best of the Morning Shag with Shags and Trevor 5:30a to 10a on 96.7 KCMQ Classic Rock in Mid-Missouri.

Dave Rubin of "The Rubin Report" talks to Eric Metaxas about his new book "Revolution: The Birth of the Greatest Nation in the History of the World" and why the American Revolution created an unprecedented system of liberty, self-government, and constitutional rights rooted in faith and personal responsibility; the forgotten heroism of America's Founding Fathers including George Washington, John Adams, Samuel Adams, Nathan Hale, and Henry Knox; why patriotism, Christianity, and understanding American history are essential ahead of America's 250th anniversary; how the left, Marxism, and anti-American narratives have reshaped education and culture; and why preserving freedom, the Constitution, and the American experiment requires civic engagement, sacrifice, and moral courage, and much more.  

Every 50 years, America has been overtaken by a Great Awakening — 1826, 1876, 1926, 1976. If the pattern holds, 2026 is the year. And the signs are already showing up in places nobody expected. Is America on the verge of the Fifth Great Awakening? Lance Wallnau sits down with evangelist and prayer leader Sharon Bolan — founder of Let's Pray USA and author of Let's Pray: 62-Second Prayers for America — to unpack the prophetic signs converging right now and why this may be the most urgent prayer moment in a generation. On Pentecost Sunday, Sharon Bolan received a word: "The first flood started over. I will send the second flood to start a NEW beginning. It will be a flood of My Spirit the world will not be able to contain." Then a Kentucky Derby winner named Golden Tempo — dead last the entire race — surged to first place at the final stretch. The word that came with it: "Those who have been in obscurity are about to come on the scene like Elijah — with power." In this episode: * The 50-year awakening cycle and why 2026-2027 is the target window * The full prophetic word Sharon Bolan received about the Second Flood * What Golden Tempo's Kentucky Derby win signaled about what's coming * The Cyrus anointing on Trump — and what the church must do right now * How one-minute prayers shifted the crime rate in New Orleans (she has the stats) * Why Benjamin Franklin called for prayer at the Constitutional Convention — and what Hamilton said back * George Washington: the "kneeling general" of Valley Forge The window is open. The pattern is undeniable. Don't miss this one. Podcast Episode 2140: Why Some Believe America's 5th Awakening Hits in 2026 | don't miss this!

Today's episode was inspired by a conservative student concerned about claims that Islam is incompatible with the West. This polite and patriotic student raised an important question: If we stand for religious freedom, shouldn't that include Islam as well? Today we will directly address this question.SPONSOR: Angel StudiosAngel Studios is the home for stories that honor America, faith, and family, with a library that includes Homestead, The Last Rodeo, Green and Gold, and Mike Rowe's Something to Stand For.

The Constitution Study with Host Paul Engel – Washington warned of the dangers of political factions and party dissension. Sadly, it appears the American people have not listened. Because, just as Washington warned us, today we see one of the political parties seeking their advancement through the absolute power of an individual. This election cycle, we already have two GOP incumbents...

On Monday's Mark Levin Show, on October 7, 2023, Palestinian terrorists from Gaza, backed by Qatar, Turkey, and Iran, attacked Israel, murdering 1,200 people through extreme brutality. If drug cartels had done the same on the Texas border the U.S. would not tolerate it or fight with the restraint Israel showed in Gaza, such as issuing warnings and leaflets. Israel, a small nation, has faced ongoing attacks from Hamas and Hezbollah yet is repeatedly told to back off just as it nears destroying these groups, allowing Hamas to rearm despite a supposed peace deal. The U.S. fought Iran alongside Israel, but now pressures Israel to stop while Hamas remains armed and Hezbollah continues threats. Why is Israel not permitted to fully defend itself? Afterward, the leak in Axios was a violation of federal law and provided support to the Iranian regime and its Hezbollah proxy. Whomever leaked that story to Barack Ravid did a grave disservice to our country, to our president, to Israel, and to Israel's prime minister. The Iranian regime will benefit from that leak, viewing us as weak and desperate for a deal -- even coming to Hezbollah's defense. Will there be an FBI investigation to determine who leaked? If not, why not? Also, we will soon celebrate the 250th anniversary of the Declaration of Independence. Every delegate who signed the document had signed their own death warrant.   Let us remember this when we listen to the debates about whether or not we should defeat the Iranian regime.  All the arguments and even excuses against it -- despite 47-years of it killing and maiming thousands of our fellow countrymen, and a far more dangerous and diabolical ideological agenda than that of the British monarchy. Yet, George Washington and the brave founders of our country personally risked everything. Ultimately, the British forces surrendered.  The Iranian regime will never surrender.  And they will never abide by a deal, any more than they have abided by a ceasefire. Later, Bari Weiss is a genuine journalist who is challenging CBS's entrenched radical mindset by promoting more moderate, professional journalists, which has provoked attacks from figures like Scott Pelley. There are CBS personalities like Pelley who are whiny, narcissistic, privileged, entitled buffoons who are driving down ratings. Meanwhile, Hasan Piker and Cenk Uygur are complaining that they were banned from Britain over their views on Israel and terrorism, while affirming First Amendment free speech. They hate America, trash its Judeo-Christian and Enlightenment values, and support regimes like communist China, Cuba, Islamist Iran, and Turkey where free speech is suppressed—yet demand sympathy when facing restrictions themselves.

As the Knicks prepare for the NBA Finals against the Spurs, Evan and Shaun dig into the growing mystery around Mitchell Robinson's fractured hand and why the story could become much bigger depending on how the series plays out. What began as a strange injury report turns into a full New York sports debate about timing, responsibility, and how much risk players should take away from the court. The conversation also hits the Knicks' championship mindset, why fans believe this has to be their year, and how focused the team appears after winning the East. Evan and Tiki also react to the Giants signing Braxton Berrios after working out Odell Beckham Jr., debate whether OBJ's return still makes sense, and somehow find time for George Washington, Jon Gruden, World War I, and the kind of sports radio chaos only New York can produce.

Odell Beckham Jr. made it clear he would love a Giants reunion, but after a workout featuring multiple wide receivers, Big Blue signed Braxton Berrios instead. Evan Roberts and Shaun Morash react to what the move says about Beckham's chances, why Berrios makes sense as a return option, and whether the Giants are avoiding the circus that could come with bringing OBJ back. The conversation also turns to Malik Nabers participating in a charity softball and dodgeball event while dealing with injury concerns, sparking a debate about unnecessary risks for star players. Evan and Shaun then take the show into classic sports radio chaos, comparing George Washington to NFL coaches, stumbling through World War I history, and circling back to why Knicks fans believe their team is playing like a champion.

Al, Zach, Christian, and John Luke look at how the French and Indian War helped forge a distinct American identity through hardship, failure, and the colonies' growing frustration with British control. The guys connect taxation without representation, George Washington's early battlefield lessons, and the founders' fight for liberty to today's entitlement culture. Zach challenges modern Americans to get “skin in the game” through family, work, ownership, and faith, while Al reflects on Phil's longtime defense of America's founders as flawed men who still built something worth honoring.
