Political conversations around tech tend to gravitate toward AI, chips, and advanced robotics, but these topics are far removed from what most Americans think of as the types of technology that power their daily lives. For most, tech is about cable, or streaming, and how they connect to the internet.Former U.S. senator Cory Gardner, now president and CEO of NCTA, the Internet & Television Association, joins Oren to walk through the political dynamics tied to these issues. They discuss why access to spectrum is so important and make sense of the future of 6G, and explore why China presents a threat to not just Americans' wireless access but also their data security. They close with a discussion on how to keep kids safe on the internet, and how feasible age-gating really is.

Send us a message! Really!This week on the Get More Smarter Podcast, we took a break to celebrate what is potentially the last Independence Day for the nation as we know it. The Big Bullshit Bill passed and was signed into law, despite some of the worst provisions getting kicked down the road until after the midterms, of course. Gabe Evans is the biggest liar in Colorado practicing a brand of “technically correct but actually lying” not seen since Cory Gardner was booted out of office in 2020. Then, the people who brought us the pizzagate lie about Democrats running a satanic child sex abuse conspiracy have suddenly decided the Epstein files don't exist and don't matter. And it's absolutely 100% because Donald Trump is all over them. We know this. It's in court records! Then, every Tuesday is TACO Tuesday when you're Donald Trump's tariff policy! Next, Elon Musk is starting a third party nobody asked for, we imagine what it might be like if that idea didn't suck. And finally, there's no Colorado Democrat like a Colorado Republican, at least when it comes to defeating other Colorado Republicans.

Happy Memorial Day from all of us at the Sean Spicer Show. Today we honor and mourn the brave men and women that died during their service in the United States Armed Services. To all the brave men and women that paid the ultimate price while in uniform, we never forget your service to this country and honor your memory. On today's show we are going to replay an interview I had with Senator Cory Gardner, looking forward to the 2026 Senate Midterm elections. Senator Cory Gardner is the Chairman of the Senate Leadership Fund. As a former Senator from Colorado and U.S. Congressman in Colorado's District 4, Gardner's role now focuses on making and keeping a Senate Republican majority. Gardner is the perfect person to walk us through the 2026 Senate Midterm elections. With President Trump adding Jd Vance as Vice President and Marco Rubio as Secretary of State, 2 special elections will take place in Ohio and Florida. Both those states are Republican strongholds with Lieutenant Governor Jon Husted in Ohio and Senator Ashley Moody in Florida, both expected to hold their seats. We then dive into current ruby red states and seats that both Gardner and I expect Republican to hold. As for the Democrats, we cover all the states in their favor, including strongholds like Oregon and Massachusetts that they expect to win. The swing states in play are shaping up for some very competitive races and Gardner gives us the inside look at the races and candidates shaping the elections. Make sure you watch to the end to see if Republicans could walk away with an even bigger majority in 2026.

Senator Cory Gardner is the Chairman of the Senate Leadership Fund. As a former Senator from Colorado and U.S. Congressman in Colorado's district 4, Gardner's role now focuses on making and keeping a Senate Republican majority. Gardner is the perfect person to walk us through the 2026 Senate Midterm elections. With President Trump adding Jd Vance as Vice President and Marco Rubio as Secretary of State, 2 special elections will take place in Ohio and Florida. Both those states are Republican strongholds with Lieutenant Governor Jon Husted in Ohio and Senator Ashley Moody in Florida are expected to hold their seats. We then dive into current ruby red states and seats that both Gardner and I expect Republican to hold. As for the Democrats, we cover all the states in their favor, including strongholds like Oregon and Massachusetts that they expect to win. The swing states in play are shaping up for some very competitive races and Gardner gives us the inside look at the races and candidates shaping the elections. Make sure you watch to the end to see if Republicans could walk away with a majority in 2026.

Rundown -   Intro - 00:35   Mike Littwin - 07:24   Troubadour Dave Gunders - 01:46:36   "Just Try Me" by Dave Gunders - 02:08:13   Outro - 02:13:51   Following this historic month of political upheaval, the lead columnist for @coloradosun, Mike Littwin, reviews the dramatic developments climaxed by the Chicago DNC. VP Kamala Harris' acceptance speech was the cherry on top.   Littwin recounts his career from growing up in Norfolk to covering the local ABA Virginia Squires – who practiced at the Norfolk JCC. Point guard Larry Brown and forward Doug Moe were friendly to young Littwin, who labored for the local paper.   Two years later, the Squires had a new player, Julius Erving, who stood out. When George Gervin joined the Squires, Littwin witnessed the Iceman and Dr. J. play hellacious one-on-one games after practice. https://images.app.goo.gl/WjANJtiwQUN6Ffoi6   Littwin went on to significant stints at the Baltimore Sun and LA Times before heading to Denver, where, for decades, he was Denver's leading news columnist at the late Rocky Mountain News. Littwin's work still shines twice a week at the Colorado Sun.   Kamala Harris' nomination acceptance speech gets thoroughly reviewed. The Craig Silverman Show salutes Littwin for bravely calling on @potus to step down right after his debate debacle. Littwin kept it up in subsequent columns. https://coloradosun.com/2024/06/30/biden-trump-debate-opinion-littwin/   Social media barbs were thrown at Littwin and others advocating for Biden to pass the torch. The show recognizes the critical roles of Ezra Klein, David Axelrod, Tim Miller, NYT, George Clooney, Joe Walsh, Pod Save America, Joe Salazar, and Rob Reiner for joining the patriotic advocacy.   The antisemitism of Donald Trump gets addressed and undressed. Given Trump's verbal attack on PA Gov. Josh Shapiro and Trump's claims Jews need their heads examined, Littwin lets loose on the GOP presidential nominee. Host and guest talk as two experienced American Jews.   We have never seen a phenomenon like Kamala Harris and her VP selection, Tim Walz. We go over the Walz speech and the sensation caused when Gus Walz cried with pride in his Dad. Warning: get a handkerchief. You may want to cry. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eBrnKM0jo40   The following bold names are subjects of Littwin stories: Jim Murray, David Simon, Dr. J., Larry Brown, Doug Moe, Bill Owens, John Hickenlooper, Michael Bennet, Jason Crow, Joe Neguse, Jack Nicklaus, Bob Beauprez, Hank Brown, RFK JR., and Cory Gardner.   We talk about photojournalist for RMN and NYT, Todd Heisler, who took amazing Kamala pic at the DNC. Littwin traveled the world with Heisler when they worked together. Learn the respect Littwin has for Heisler. https://www.mediaite.com/news/just-stunning-iconic-photo-of-kamala-harris-and-great-niece-amara-during-dnc-speech-goes-viral/   Littwin keeps columnizing because he loves his craft and his Colorado Sun audience is enormous. Colorado readers are deprived of most of our old favorites, but not the legendary Littwin, who still enjoys the challenge and profit of churning out world-class columns for us to enjoy.   Littwin's highly accomplished UT Austin law professor daughter, Angie Littwin, and Littwin's grandsons also have him loving life. Few people like politics and history more than Mike Littwin. We like and feel Kamalamomentum. https://law.utexas.edu/faculty/angela-k-littwin/publications/   Troubadour Dave Gunders loved the Chicago DNC and identified his favorite parts. Kamala Harris was the star, and we hope our 47th President. She made her case on Thursday. "Just Try Me" is the perfect Gunders' persuasion song for the American electorate. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lCfJgGEUYRo&list=OLAK5uy_lwU1xbs2JtDfVhprMsLjmBd45zsa1IfPE&index=2

This week on the Get More Smarter Podcast, the incredibly cynical and evidence-free impeachment attempt against President Biden is failing, and now even Republicans are noticing; as it turns out, when the leader of your party is a 91-time indicted twice convicted obvious crook, trying to play both sides against a guy like Joe Biden just isn't going to work. Next, we discuss how an egg isn't a chicken, a sapling isn't a tree, a seed isn't a flower, and no, a frozen embryo isn't a person. A southern Colorado Republican con artist gets targeted by the feds in an investigation; we're glad that federal law enforcement is finally figuring out what so many of us in Colorado knew for so long. And finally, the namesake of the very first episode of this podcast has emerged from his hole; former U.S. Senator Cory Gardner has an endorsement to make! Will this be the normie establishment kiss of death, or just what the incredibly crowded field in his former congressional district needs to make their mind up?
