American conservatism as we know it today is a West Texas export, argues College of Wooster professor Jeff Roche in The Conservative Frontier: Texas and the Origins of the New Right (U Texas Press, 2025). Tracing the roots of the state's conservative movement back to the giant cattle ranches and tycoons of the nineteenth century, Roche argues that you cannot separate the local and historical conditions in the West (and in West Texas specifically) from the "cowboy conservatism" of Barry Goldwater and Ronald Reagan. Full of fascinating characters and the kind of tall tales you only find in the Lone Star State, The Conservative Frontier makes a compelling case for Texas politics eventually becoming national politics by the mid to late 20th century. No matter where you are in the United States today, the political weight of Texas creates a gravity that has proven impossible for American politics to emerge from. Learn more about your ad choices.

It's June of 1979 and 28-year-old Dale Earnhardt is feeling as confident as ever. With a notch in the win column and top five finishes in the last three races, the rookie seems to have found his place amongst the stock car racing elite. As episode five of Becoming Earnhardt opens, the NASCAR Cup circuit travels to the Lone Star State to take on the daunting Texas World Speedway. Dale would once again race his way into the spotlight, nipping at the heels of eventual race winner Darrell Waltrip before a mechanical failure sent him into the wall and made him settle for a 12th-place finish. But the impressive showing had Ol' DW once again admitting in victory lane, “when all the seasoned veterans retire, it'll be Dale Earnhardt I'll have to contend with.”It's during this episode that the NASCAR garage gets its first glimpse at the on-track aggression that would eventually become “The Intimidator”. In a late race hustle at Michigan International, Dale makes a daring move that sends many top contenders scrambling, bringing about the ire of the very drivers who had been singing his praises. And while this constructive feedback from his mentors may have had him reconsidering his standing in the Cup ranks, it didn't seem to slow him down any. As the Cup schedule hits the Poconos and Dale takes on the Tricky Triangle for the first time in his career, he is dealt a turn of events that will leave his dreams of being a NASCAR Champion in doubt. FanDuel: Must be 21+ and present in select states (for Kansas, in affiliation with Kansas Star Casino) or 18+ and present in D.C.

The news of Texas covered today includes:Our Lone Star story of the day: I held off on this story all week because it was confusing. The press release from the State Securities Board came across to me as a head-scratcher that looked a bit like an insider political hit on Paxton. Now I think that is the case even more as I wasn't the only one confused by the Board's odd comments and ruling over the Muslim “EPIC City” development. This very good story from the Dallas Morning News shows I wasn't the only one wondering about this: AG Ken Paxton, state agency clash over ‘EPIC City' development lawsuit.Our Lone Star story of the day is sponsored by Allied Compliance Services providing the best service in DOT, business and personal drug and alcohol testing since 1995.Texas jobs reports show continued adding of jobs (21,700) in the Lone Star State with the unemployment rate remaining steady at 4.1 percent.More evidence that the Texas A&M System doesn't care much for West Texas (WT) or the NW region of the state: West Texas A&M University, Texas A&M System to end Panhandle-Plains Historical Museum. The money to fix the state's oldest state museum is almost a rounding error in the A&M system budget.Listen on the radio, or station stream, at 5pm Central.

In “Boars Gone Wild: Texans Hunt, Trap, and Cook a Piggy Pest,” Gravy producer Georgia Sparling takes a deep dive into the conundrum around Texas' pig problem. They say everything's bigger in Texas, and that is certainly true of the wild hog population. Millions of feral pigs roam the rural (and not so rural) areas of the Lone Star State — destroying farmland, pushing out native animals, obstructing roadways, and leaving behind billions of dollars in damage each year. And their numbers are growing at an astounding rate. Hunters and landowners in Texas have a green light to kill any and all wild pigs, be it on foot, from a helicopter, or even from a hot air balloon. But then these intelligent yet invasive animals are often left to rot in the fields because everyone knows they're tough and gamey, right? Well, not according to chef, butcher, hunter, and “hog apologist” Jesse Griffiths. The author of the James Beard Award-winning The Hog Book and co-owner of Austin's Dai Due restaurant, Griffiths is on a mission to revamp the reputation of feral pigs. In this episode of Gravy, Sparling explores the wild hog origin story and how the population has grown, not only in Texas but across more than thirty states. Armed with a mic, she travels from field to table. She joins Griffiths on a hunt for hogs, and then takes listeners into the kitchen to understand just how varied, versatile, and sustainable their meat is. She will also explore their slowly growing popularity as wild boar meat becomes more available. Along the way, she speaks with Mitch Hagney of the San Antonio Food Bank. As federal funding cuts erode SNAP benefits and food pantry budgets, Hagney and his colleagues are devising creative solutions to address the hunger problem. They're hoping that by teaming up with hunters and trappers, wild pigs can be a creative solution to feeding thousands of low-income families in Texas and beyond. Learn more about your ad choices.

Author Pam Penick stops by to discuss her new book "Gardens of Texas: Visions of Resilience from the Lone Star State". Beverly from Arbor Gate also speaks with Skip about holiday festivities.

Josh Hammer explains why yesterday's closed-door hearing on Capitol Hill confirms that the corporate media lied about Secretary of War Hegseth issuing a "kill order" on a narco-terrorist boat in the Caribbean Sea in early September. He didn't, as yesterday's testifying Navy admiral confirmed. In reality, the administration is simply acting to defend the American homeland and the American people—much as it is also doing when it comes to its immigration enforcement operations. Josh also breaks down the week's major legal updates—namely, the long-overdue arrest of the infamous D.C. pipe bomber and the huge Supreme Court victory for the State of Texas and House Republicans on the question of the Lone Star State's controversial newly redrawn congressional map. Josh also zooms out and explains what the GOP must do to forestall carnage at the ballot box come 2026—and perhaps 2028 as well.

Is Texas the model for finally fixing America's broken border? For years, people have argued about the border like it's some abstract debate club topic. But when you actually talk to the folks who live near it, work near it, or protect it every day, the picture looks very different. This episode pulls the curtain back on what's really happening in Texas… and why so many people are asking if the Lone Star State just cracked the code. Studio Sponsor: Cardio Miracle - "Unlock the secret to a healthier heart, increased energy levels, and transform your cardiovascular fitness like never before.": CardioMiracle.com/TBNS Because here's the truth: illegal immigration isn't just a political talking point. It's a daily reality that impacts safety, budgets, culture, and even the basic fairness of how we treat citizens vs. non-citizens. And for the first time in a long time, Texas has both the authority and the backbone to actually do something about it. We dig into what changed, why it matters, and what the rest of the country can learn from it. You'll hear first-hand insight from longtime law enforcement officer and congressional candidate Brian Stahl, who spent 20 years watching the border crisis evolve from a slow drip to a fire hose. He breaks down what Texans saw during the Biden years, why crime spiked, how cartels exploited the chaos, and why “boots on the ground” still beat any federal press release. We also talk incentives, culture, the flood of bogus asylum claims, and why honest legal immigrants are being shoved to the back of the line while the system gets jammed with people gaming it. If you've ever wondered whether the border could be fixed with competent leadership and common-sense enforcement… this conversation is going to change how you see the whole thing. If you're tired of politicians talking in circles, tired of the media running interference, and tired of being told that wanting a secure border makes you “extreme,” pull up a chair. This is the real-world breakdown you're not getting anywhere else. ❤️ Order Cardio Miracle (CardioMiracle.com/TBNS) for 15% off and take a step towards better heart health and overall well-being!

Send us a message! Really!This week on the Get More Smarter Podcast, the Epstein Files bill passed the House and Senate nearly unanimously and was signed into law by Donald Trump. That means that we get to see everything that was in them, right? Right? Then Trump's mid-cycle gerrymandering mandate seems to have totally backfired on the GOP with a federal judge in Texas blocking the Lone Star State's attempt to rig the 2024 midterms in their favor right after California voters overwhelmingly approved their counteracting measure...oops! Then, have Trump's polling numbers finally hit rock bottom, or is he essentially in free fall through a polling mine shaft? A raft of new polling indicates he may not have even hit terminal velocity yet. Then, one military veteran in Colorado's Congressional delegation has had his life threatened by the president of the united states, while another military veteran in Colorado's Congressional Delegation can't stop lying his ass off, can you guess who is who? And finally, we peer into the present with a new poll from our friends at the Colorado Polling Institute, and peer into the future with yet another 2026 election update because pretty soon we won't be able to joke that it's 2025 anymore!  That's it for this episode!

"Is opportunity really always there—or do you have to be listening for it to knock?" That's the question Kent Hance poses as he opens this episode, setting the stage for a journey through Texas legends, political intrigue, and stories of resilience that only the best storyteller in Texas can deliver. In this episode, Kent Hance shares unforgettable tales from his time in the Lone Star State, weaving together personal anecdotes and historical insights. Listeners will meet characters like Fastball Walker, whose nickname outlived his real name, and CQ Brown, the first African American to head a branch of the U.S. military, whose rise through the ranks was marked by bipartisan respect and a unanimous Senate confirmation vote. Hance dives deep into the complexities of political appointments, revealing the behind-the-scenes battles between the White House and the Senate, and the personal toll these processes take. He reflects on the Supreme Court nomination wars, the brutal Kavanaugh hearings, and the shifting landscape of American politics. Notable moments include Hance's recollection of attending a state dinner with President Reagan and Anwar Sadat, and his friendship with the Crown Prince of Iran during his flying lessons at Texas Tech. Memorable quotes abound, such as: "Opportunity's always there. You gotta be listening for it to knock." "You can take a bad situation and make it something that's really positive." "LBJ will twist your arm so badly to get you to vote for something that you don't realize it didn't break your arm, it ruins your career." Themes of perseverance, the power of reputation, and the impact of political decisions on everyday lives run throughout the episode. Hance's storytelling brings history to life, making listeners feel as if they're right there in the room with presidents, generals, and Texas legends.
