Kim St. Onge leads a lively “Kim on a Whim” exploring the growing backlash against massive data center projects popping up across the Midwest. From Franklin County to Warrenton and Troy, residents are pushing back over noise, power, and environmental concerns while city officials chase tax revenue and tech investment. Marc and Kim debate AI's energy demands—like ChatGPT using ten times more electricity than a Google search—and question whether data centers bring enough long-term jobs to justify their impact. #MarcCoxShow #KimOnAWhim #DataCenters #AI #MissouriPolitics #ChatGPT #CommunityDebate #Technology

While chaos dominates the headlines—from Minneapolis to the Middle East—one of the biggest economic stories of the decade is being quietly ignored. America is now growing faster than China, and China has just lost up to 70% of its oil supply. The Atlanta Fed reports 5.5% GDP growth, unemployment is down, wages are surging, inflation is falling, and productivity is exploding—all signs of a Reagan-level economic boom. Yet legacy media barely whispers about it, and the Trump administration's messaging isn't cutting through the noise. In this episode, Tara breaks down what these numbers actually mean, why productivity—not fake GDP—is the real measure of prosperity, and how Trump's energy strategy just kneecapped China's economy. This isn't paper growth. This is real wealth creation.
From unrest in Minneapolis to a historic economic surge, today's episode connects dots the media won't. As President Trump signals potential use of the Insurrection Act, we examine how depolicing, street enforcement, and political hesitation have reshaped public safety—and what happens when the rule of law disappears. Then, buried beneath the chaos, a stunning turnaround: America is growing faster than China, GDP is surging at 5.5%, wages are rising faster than inflation, and productivity is hitting levels not seen since Reagan. Add in a massive geopolitical shock—China losing up to 70% of its oil supply—and the stakes couldn't be higher. We also break down the fight in Congress over Obamacare subsidies, alleged large-scale fraud, Trump's proposed overhaul to put money directly in patients' hands, and what it could mean for healthcare costs. Finally, a local flashpoint: South Carolina's measles outbreak, vaccine policy, exemptions, and a growing debate parents and lawmakers can't avoid. This is about power—who has it, who enforces it, and who pays the price.
In this “Kim on a Whim” segment, Marc Cox and Kim St. Onge broke down the explosive point-shaving scandal involving former SLU player Bradley Ezewiro, accused of fixing games as part of a nationwide betting scheme spanning 17 NCAA teams. They noted the irony of gambling ads appearing alongside news about the investigation and highlighted statements from former Missouri AG Andrew Bailey, now at the FBI, condemning the corruption. The hosts explored the connection between NIL money, player mobility, and gambling temptations, while Cox reflected on his own brief betting experiences as a cautionary tale. The discussion closed with a sharp defense of editorial independence and a warning about how legalized betting continues to blur the lines between competition and corruption. #KimOnAWhim #SLU #BradleyEzewiro #PointShaving #SportsBetting #NCAA #AndrewBailey #MarcCoxShow
Marc Cox kicks off the show dissecting media bias around the Minneapolis ICE shooting, slamming how progressive narratives twist facts for outrage and clicks. Kim St. Onge joins with her “Kim on a Whim” segment, arguing that America's growing number of “independents” need to wake up and choose a side, calling neutrality dangerous as leftist chaos rises. The hour dives into Candace Owens' bizarre “time-travel” theory about Charlie Kirk, the power of emotion in politics, and the sharp moral divide shaping America's next election. #MediaBias #KimOnAWhim #CandaceOwens #IndependentVoters #MarcCoxMorningShow #Politics
In today's “Kim on a Whim,” Kim St. Onge tears into the record rise of self-identified independents, arguing that sitting on the fence is a luxury the country can't afford.

They slam political apathy, highlight generational voter shifts, and warn that neutrality only empowers the far-left agenda. #KimOnAWhim #IndependentVoters #Politics #Conservatism #MarcCoxMorningShow

It's The Ranch It Up Radio Show! Join Jeff Tigger Erhardt, Rebecca Wanner AKA BEC and their crew as they look into rebuilding the U.S. Cow herd. Plus, should we keep heifers or sell heifers and consumer demand for beef. They cover it all on this all new episode of The Ranch It Up Radio Show. Be sure to subscribe on your favorite podcasting app or on the Ranch It Up Radio Show YouTube Channel. USDA'S Plan To Rebuild The Nation's Beef Cow Herd The USDA is developing a plan to rebuild the nation's historically low beef cattle herd but will not produce direct payments to producers, according to Secretary Brooke Rollins. Rollins said “We have no current plants to offer any payment to beef producers. The government getting involved can completely distort the markets. No plan is even under consideration to insert ourselves through payments into the beef cattle industry.” Unquote. Instead, USDA's strategy will emphasize expanding access to working lands and developing risk-mitigation tools. Rollins said more details will be released in mid-October. Justin Tupper, Owner/Operator of St. Onge Livestock in St. Onge, South Dakota and President of the U.S. Cattlemen's Association shares his insight on retaining heifers vs. selling heifers and what producers need to look for in the year(s) to come.
