Podcasts about Showdown

As record numbers of Americans prepare for a low-gas-price July 4th, Trump faces a fresh crisis: a Democrat-appointed judge has ordered the reopening of the southern border, potentially overruling the Supreme Court's ban on nationwide injunctions. The hosts break down how this move could trigger a rush of cartel-linked criminals back into the country, sabotage ICE enforcement, and hand the left a potent narrative against Trump's immigration crackdown. Meanwhile, they expose surprising connections in the Diddy prosecution—led by James Comey's daughter, who also handled Epstein and Maxwell cases and has fought to keep related documents sealed. With echoes of Comey's alleged “honeypot” entrapments against Trump, the segment unpacks a tangle of judicial overreach, partisan media spin, and institutional power plays that could reshape the border—and the 2024 election.

As Democrats accuse Trump of dictatorship, the hosts lay out how liberal judges are the ones defying constitutional boundaries—issuing nationwide injunctions the Supreme Court has already ruled illegal. This segment breaks down the Obama-appointed judge's unprecedented order to reinstate catch-and-release and reopen the southern border, effectively inviting hundreds of thousands of deported criminals to return. The hosts explain how this ruling defies asylum law, undermines border security gains, and is likely designed to provoke Trump into defying the courts so the left can brand him an authoritarian. They argue the endgame is headline warfare, intimidation of ICE agents, and a deliberate constitutional crisis to stop enforcement of immigration law.

In these two explosive segments, the hosts break down the high-stakes political and economic battles defining Trump's presidency. First, they explore the “Big Beautiful Bill,” packed with sweeping measures—100% immediate expensing for factory construction, doubling health savings accounts, and $70 billion for deportations—that promise economic revival but carry the risk of record-breaking debt and runaway inflation if Trump can't sustain 3% growth. Next, they tackle the crisis at the southern border, as a Democrat-appointed judge defies the Supreme Court to order the reopening of asylum entry, potentially inviting cartel criminals back into the country. Alongside surging ICE attacks and political pressure, the show also dives into the curious connections tying the prosecution of Diddy to the Comey family and their history of secretive investigations. From judicial overreach to economic brinkmanship, these episodes lay bare the clashes reshaping America's future.

What were the biggest college football recruiting wins in the North this summer? From Michigan to Pitt, from Notre Dame to Washington, from Ohio State to BYU, from Utah to Penn State, Doug Lesmerises and Bill Landis explain the biggest recruiting moves and what they mean for Northern football. Then it's the latest KOTN Showdown, as two former Big Ten West foes square off: Minnesota vs. Northwestern. Finally, check in on Whatcha Watching, Eating and Thinking. Thanks for joining Kings of the North.

In these in-depth segments, the host exposes the accelerating crisis of unsustainable government spending and the collusion between political elites and media giants to protect their power. First, Rep. Ralph Norman explains why he's a hard “no” on the Senate's massive spending bill, calling out Lindsey Graham and John Thune for adding over $600 billion in annual deficit spending—ballooning the debt toward an unthinkable $60 trillion by 2035. The discussion underscores how bloated budgets get rammed through: senators stuffing the bills with pork to buy votes, all while the public is distracted. Meanwhile, the battle over the census is heating up. Leaders like Marjorie Taylor Greene and Ron DeSantis push to redo the census to count only citizens when apportioning House seats, arguing that fraudulent counts and illegal immigration have rigged representation in blue states and stolen power from places like Florida and Texas. In the second segment, Lindsey Graham faces primary challengers like Andre Bauer, but splitting the field may ultimately help him cling to power despite polling in the low 40s. Then, an explosive story: Donald Trump has won a $16 million settlement from CBS and Paramount after “60 Minutes” was caught deceptively editing Kamala Harris's interview to cover up her incompetence on Israel policy—a case the host calls “journalistic fraud.” Finally, the broadcast breaks down staggering new evidence that the FBI hid proof of Chinese election interference, lied to Congress, and helped censor social media posts about COVID and voter fraud—actions the host says amount to collusion to install a compromised president. Together, these revelations paint a picture of a political system that is not just broken but actively betraying the American people.

Jon Herold packs this rapid-fire episode with updates and analysis on the biggest stories in politics and media. He opens with the frantic House negotiations over Trump's “Big Beautiful Bill,” breaking down which provisions survived, which were quietly stripped out (like tax breaks for tips and private school vouchers), and why the gambling tax amendment could cripple an entire industry. Jon also covers Trump's new 20% tariff deal with Vietnam to stop Chinese trans-shipping, and highlights the FBI bombshell from Chuck Grassley revealing they buried intelligence on Chinese election interference in 2020 to protect Chris Wray's testimony. Other headlines include Sean Diddy Combs's partial conviction, the Wisconsin Supreme Court overturning the 1849 abortion ban, and the forced reversal of UPenn's trans athlete policies. With a dose of humor, Jon closes by mocking viral meltdown videos over “Alligator Alcatraz” and restaurant staff threatening to assault MAGA customers. From debt ceiling drama to the slow death of institutional trust, this episode shows how chaos and controlled leaks are reshaping the landscape just in time for 2024.

In this marathon pre–Fourth of July broadcast, CannCon and Chris Paul break down the Senate's passage of Trump's massive “One Big Beautiful Bill,” exploring whether the legislation is a genuine America First achievement or an elaborate setup to expose the unit party. They debate potential moves like line-item vetoes, impoundments, and rescissions, and how these could reshape executive power and funding battles. The hosts also cover the end of USAID as a standalone agency, with foreign aid shifting under the State Department and igniting media panic over “14 million projected deaths.” They tackle Elon Musk's threats to launch the America Party, the political theater around CBS paying Trump a massive settlement, and arguments over free speech after CNN promoted an app tracking ICE agents. Other highlights include John Diddy Combs's partial conviction, Ukraine weapons cuts, and Luhansk's final integration into Russia. The episode wraps with Trump's vow to claw back funding from Ivy League schools pushing transgender athletes, reflections on the Smith-Mundt Act's propaganda legacy, and an epic tangent about the broken two-party system.

In these episodes, the hosts break down two critical Supreme Court decisions reshaping American politics. The first ruling sharply limits activist district judges' power to issue sweeping national injunctions against presidential policies—a move that curtails what they call “judicial dictatorship” and restores constitutional boundaries. The second case, Mahmoud v. Taylor, defends parental rights by striking down mandatory transgender and LGBTQ storytime in Maryland schools, sparking fierce dissent from Justice Sotomayor, who warned public education itself could be doomed. Meanwhile, the hosts highlight the sudden disappearance of nationwide riots they claim were fueled by NGO funding and Democrat-aligned billionaires—an effort now under federal investigation. They spotlight Florida's “Alligator Alcatraz,” a vast Everglades detention center created by Ron DeSantis to deport migrants en masse, and criticize Republican leaders in other states for failing to help Trump enforce immigration law. Together, these stories illustrate the escalating battle over the courts, the classroom, the streets, and the border—and why the hosts argue 2024 is a defining moment for America's future.

Did the world's greatest magician take on psychics in Congress? In 1926, Harry Houdini testified in Washington to outlaw spiritualist fraud. What he said—and what happened next—might surprise you. In this episode, we tell the story of Houdini's efforts and then speak with United States Congressman, Mark Pocan.  Congressman Mark Pocan was sworn in as the U.S. Representative for Wisconsin's second congressional district in 2013 following 14 years in the Wisconsin State Assembly. A small business owner, union member, and advocate for progressive causes, Rep. Pocan fights for policies that promote economic and social justice and support the families of south central Wisconsin. Rep. Pocan is also a magician who uses magic to educate his constituents on what's going on in Washington with his weekly Magic Mondays. Listen to Rep.

Showdown in Cedar Rapids: Cubs Ride Off Victorious It was a hot one in Cedar Rapids, and the South Bend Cubs came to town lookin’ to even some scores and rustle up a win. Young Ryan Gallagher took the mound like a seasoned gunslinger, evening his record at 4 wins and 4 losses. He threw six frames, gave up seven hits, four earned runs, and sat down six batters with his fastball straight as a rifle shot. The Cubs struck first blood in the top of the second, when Brian Kalmer roped a single to center to bring Andy Garriola gallopin’ home — 1–0 South Bend. In the fourth, Garriola got in on the action himself, sendin’ a base hit to right field that brought Jefferson Rojas and Cristian Hernandez across the plate. Cubs were up 3–0 and feelin’ mighty fine. But the Kernels weren’t about to fold that easy. They clawed their way back with two runs in the fifth and another pair in the sixth, takin’ a 4–3 lead and makin’ folks nervous in the visitor dugout. Then came the 7th. Two outs, Garriola on first after a single and a sneaky stolen base — his fifth of the year. Cameron Sisneros stepped up to the plate, stared down Jacob Kisting, and after fallin’ behind 1–2, launched his first home run in the Midwest League into the Cedar Rapids twilight. That ball might still be travelin’. Cubs jumped ahead 5–4. The bottom of the 7th was a real saloon brawl. Kenton Egbert found himself in a mess of trouble, leadoff double, bases loaded — but he kept his cool. When Misael Urbina rolled one to short, Cristian Hernandez scooped it clean and ended the threat. No damage done. In the 9th, Brayden Risedorph rode in like the town marshal, shutting things down without so much as a scuff on his boots. That clean frame earned him his second save, and the Cubs rode off with a 5–4 win.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Episode 297 features former Major League Baseball player and executive, Ed Lynch, inventor of the BBQ Hooker, John Garcia with his son, Gabriel, and winner of Netflix's season two Barbecue Showdown, Thyron Mathews Ed Lynch was drafted by the Texas Rangers and after three years in their minor league system he was traded to the New York Mets and had the opportunity to play with several outstanding players, including Dwight "Doc" Gooden and The Franchise, Tom Seaver.  Ed was  eventually traded to the Chicago Cubs, which is where he ended his playing career.  Ed then made the decision to attend law school and shortly after graduating was back in baseball working as an executive.  There is nothing better than hearing stories from someone who lived his life as a player and an executive and has many opinions on the game of baseball.   John and Gabriel Garcia are a father and son combo.  John, the father, is the inventor of the BBQ Hooker, a device which is meant to be a better way to flip your various proteins while grilling.  We met them at the National BBQ Festival and were impressed by the device, but more than that we were impressed by John and Gabriel who are trying to "build a better mousetrap."  For more information on the BBQ Hooker go to https://firecookingtools.com/products/experience-hooking-up-at-the-grill Thyron Mathews is an award-winning barbecue chef and pitmaster, known for his appearances on Netflix's Barbecue Showdown, where he won the season two title. He is also the founder of T&T Barbecue and Catering in Iowa which he started with his wife, Terri. Thyron is originally from Royal, Florida, and his Southern roots heavily influence his BBQ style.  He made his way back to television as he is on the Food Network's sixth season of BBQ Brawl.  We met Thyron at the National BBQ Festival where he was cooking for a huge crowd, but still was able to spend some time with us.  We recommend you go to Baseball BBQ, https://baseballbbq.com for special grilling tools and accessories, Magnechef https://magnechef.com/ for excellent and unique barbecue gloves, Cutting Edge Firewood High Quality Kiln Dried Firewood - Cutting Edge Firewood in Atlanta for high quality firewood and cooking wood, Mantis BBQ, https://mantisbbq.com/ to purchase their outstanding sauces with a portion of the proceeds being donated to the Kidney Project, and for exceptional sauces, Elda's Kitchen https://eldaskitchen.com/   We conclude the show with the song, Baseball Always Brings You Home from the musician, Dave Dresser and the poet, Shel Krakofsky.

What happens when a former Oregon State Trooper steps into the woods for a bear hunt — and ends up face-to-face with the unknown?In this gripping episode of Bigfoot Society, Jeremiah Byron talks with Ethan, a law enforcement veteran and lifelong outdoorsman who shares chilling encounters from deep in the Oregon wilderness. From unsettling whoops between unseen creatures to perfect three-knock patterns in the dead of night, Ethan recounts a night that changed everything. You'll hear stories from the Southern Blue Mountains, Suttle Lake, the edge of the Warm Springs Reservation, and even Prospect and Granite — places where hunters have fled, terrified, in the middle of the night.Whether it's pistol-drawn standoffs in the dark or whispered legends passed between trusted troopers, Ethan's experiences reveal the darker side of Bigfoot encounters — and the silent intelligence behind them. This isn't campfire gossip. It's boots-on-the-ground testimony from someone who swore to protect and serve... and now swears he wasn't alone.

This week, I'm solo, but not alone. I'm joined by Dr. Kaveh Hoda, a fellow medical satirist who brings the same energy I try to harness every time I put on a white coat and immediately start roasting the healthcare system. We talk shop about using humor to cope with burnout, the risks and rewards of medical satire, and why sometimes it's more effective to joke than to rant. And yes, we draft sphincters. Real ones. The best ones. It's unhinged, unfiltered, and surprisingly educational. Takeaways: We break down how satire can be a coping tool and a medical mirror. The true (and not-so-glamorous) cost of being “that funny doctor online.” Kaveh brings the heat in a completely unscientific Sphincter Draft. The surprising similarities between comedy and clinical work. What it's like podcasting without Lady G… and replacing her with sphincters. — To Get Tickets to Wife & Death: You can visit Glaucomflecken.com/live  We want to hear YOUR stories (and medical puns)!

DC Gaming relies too heavily on Batman games; diversification is essential. Pixar's Elio delivers a fresh, emotionally rich story with strong visuals. Strategic director choices for the James Bond franchise are critical for appealing to newer audiences. Upcoming Marvel games (Wolverine, Iron Man, Marvel Tokken) maintain excitement, while DC needs fresh ideas. Memorable Quotes: “Marvel isn't afraid to experiment; DC needs to step outside the Batman box.” “It's time to engage a younger audience—fresh ideas are essential for iconic franchises.” “Superman deserves gameplay mechanics as exciting and satisfying as Spider-Man's web-swinging.” Call to Action: Enjoy the conversation?
