The Rich Zeoli Show- Hour 3: 5:05pm- State Senator Mike Testa—Republican Whip & Representing District 1 (Atlantic, Cape May, and Cumberland Counties) in the New Jersey State Senate—joins The Rich Zeoli Show to preview Election Day in NJ. 5:30pm- Kamala Harris's book tour is still unfolding—and it's not going particularly well. She's constantly criticizing Joe Biden, accusing him of making the 2024 election all about himself, and cursing up a storm! Is she attempting to be authentic and likable? It seems to be failing.

That's what Ron DeSantis of Florida says about how he's leading Florida. And guess which state is growing more? We have Jason Plummer on this hour, State Senator from IL, to talk about this very thing.

Claire de Mézerville López welcomes Edwin Freeman to the Restorative Works! Podcast.  What happens when hip hop culture meets restorative practices in the classroom? Edwin Freeman, actor, filmmaker, educator, and founder of the Hip Hop Harmony Program, helps us explore how art, culture, and restorative circles are transforming urban schools.

By blending restorative practices with hip hop culture, Edwin creates spaces where students feel seen, heard, respected, and accepted. Instead of punishment, students address conflict through rap battles, dance, art, and dialogue, strengthening their sense of belonging and leadership skills. Edwin Freeman is a professional actor, filmmaker, and educator who serves as Program Director of the Hip-Hop Harmony Program. The program operates in New York City high schools and will expand to elementary and middle schools next year, with endorsements from the New York City Offices of the Mayor, State Senator, and City Council Speaker.  Edwin's entertainment credits include the blockbuster film Notorious and Netflix's Marvel's Luke Cage. As an independent filmmaker, he has produced and directed the critically acclaimed documentaries Modern Day Slavery: From Plantations to Prisons and Beats & Lyrics: The Essence of Rap. He currently serves as President of The Freeman Foundation for the Arts, a charitable organization focused on arts education and youth development. Through his work, Freeman demonstrates how hip-hop culture and restorative practices circles can effectively address social-emotional learning in urban educational settings.   Tune in to hear more as Edwin shares how his curriculum helps students carry restorative skills beyond the circle, into hallways, friendships, and their communities.

After years of back and forth, the Nevada Commission on Ethics and Governor Joe Lombardo have finally ⁠settled their dispute⁠ over his use of LVMPD "accoutrements" in campaign materials (like his sheriff's badge and uniform) — and what started as a $1.6 million fine has dropped down to a $5,000 "donation."

Fall is just around the corner, kids are back in school, football has kicked off and your host Paul Rieckhoff (@PaulRieckhoff) is here to continue to tear into the future of independent politics. And American politics. This week, we've got a great conversation with Maine State Senator Rick Bennett, a lifelong Republican and former state party Chair who has recently declared his independence from the GOP and announced a run for Governor.  It's a bold move. And becoming a trend we've been focused on for years uniquely on this show. More and more longtime Democrats and Republicans are declaring their independence. Thousands every single day. And more and more candidates for office at all levels.  This is a fascinating and inspiring conversation spanning a lot of the stuff that you are going to find yourself nodding along to. Bennett speaks to the growing movement of politically homeless Americans, highlighting his mission to offer common-sense solutions and restore civility and kindness to politics. He also discusses Maine's rich history of independent political leadership, from James Longley to Angus King, and explains why he believes the state is a bellwether for the future of American politics. He candidly shares the challenges of running as an independent, from fundraising to infrastructure, and outlines his top policy priorities for Maine, including the housing crisis, rising energy costs, and education reform.  The conversation also touches on an important subject not enough people are thinking about. The very real potential for conflict between state governors and Trump. Bennett affirms his commitment to the people of Maine above all else but this episode is a powerful exploration of "getting-stuff-done". It's the spirit and mindset that defines the independent movement and it's the spirit and mindset we're all going to need to make the change we all know needs to happen. It's the latest conversation in our groundbreaking “Meet the Independents” series following other Independent leaders like Colorado Springs Mayor Yemi Mobolade, independent candidate for Senate from South Dakota Brian Bengs, Independent candidate for Mayor of New York Jim Walden and Chattanooga, Tennessee Mayor Tim Kelly and more. Do yourself a favor and revisit them all. Because every episode of Independent Americans with Paul Rieckhoff (@PaulRieckhoff) breaks down the most important news stories–and offers light to contrast the heat of other politics and news shows. It's independent content for independent Americans. In these trying times especially, Independent Americans is your trusted place for independent news, politics, inspiration and hope.
