Super Rugby Pacific talked a big game this season, promising better, faster rugby and better contests on the field, and even more ambitiously, they promised better social media presence and a significantly better fan engagement. Stan Sport‘s Sean Maloney joined Brett McKay & Harry Jones on The 8/9 Combo Rugby Podcast to concede that yes, they might just have ticked all the boxes.

Hollywood makes some great movies and TV shows. But they don't always get the details right, especially when it comes to guns. Bad guys fly backwards across the room when they're shot.

And fingers are on triggers all the time.  Sean Maloney, firearms attorney and co-founder of Second Call Defense, sets the record straight to help people handle guns properly, avoid accidents, and stay out of legal trouble.

The US Supreme Court recently ruled that courts, not agencies such as the ATF, should interpret laws. And an Ohio court told Cincinnati they can't make up their own gun laws. Plus, who's in charge of the executive branch which enforces laws. It's clearly not Joe Biden. Sean Maloney, firearms attorney and co-founder of Second Call Defense, explains what it all means.

Can you carry a concealed handgun with a threaded barrel? Do you have to obey no-gun signs in public parks? Is it legal to set up a backyard shooting range in Ohio?

Congressman Lee Zeldin lost by less than six percent in deep blue New York in his bid to be governor. It was one of the closest gubernatorial races in the state in 20 years. While he didn't win, his success at the top of the ticket helped Republicans flip four U.S. House Seats, including the defeat of Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee Chair Rep. Sean Maloney. So what are Zeldin's takeaways from running statewide in New York? What lessons should Republicans learn moving forward? Zeldin joins Lisa for this episode. Follow Clay & Buck on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/c/clayandbuckSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
