Join Jim and Greg for this special Monday 3 Martini Lunch, as they assess the state of the 2026 midterm elections, and give their currents outlooks for which party has the advantage in winning control of the Senate, the House of Representatives, and key governor's races.First, they look at the Senate. Republicans have a decent shot of holding their majority but it won't be easy. Jim and Greg point out the seat that Democrats will likely flip, the one Republicans might be able to flip, and the competitive races for several seats held by members of both parties.Next, they assess the House of Representatives. With midterm momentum seemingly with the Democrats and the GOP holding a very slim majority, the left would seem to have the advantage. But the mationwide redistricting wars seem to favor Republicans. Still, even if Republicans succeed in winning most of these newly drawn districts, keeping the majority is an uphill climb.Then, they examine several key governor's races, particularly in the traditional battleground states.Please visit our great sponsors:IncogniTake control of your digital footprint today.  Use code 3ML at the link below and get 60% off an annual plan: https://incogni.com/3MLHomeServeFor 50% less your first year, go to https://HomeServe.com/Martini to find the plan that's right for you.

Send us Fan MailThat feeling that whispers “there's more” can get louder with every year you stay busy, stay responsible, and stay stuck. We start with a gut-check question: are you where God wants you to be, doing what He made you to do, or have you buried something you were created to carry?Our guest, blues rock musician Andy Watley, shares a story that hits home for anyone juggling faith, family, and big decisions. Andy grows up with music and sports, chases football, builds a life, raises five kids, and spends years coaching and providing. But the gift never leaves. A single on-stage moment at a benefit reignites the calling, and what begins as a few shows with his sons turns into a new season of touring, songwriting, and unexpected opportunities, including sharing stages with major artists. Along the way, Andy gets real about the cost, the criticism, and a mistake he had to own at home: not communicating clearly with his wife when the dream started pulling him forward.We also talk practical discipleship, not just inspiration: how to listen for God's direction, how to handle naysayers, and why you do not need perfect conditions to take your first step. Ron closes with clear action steps you can start this week to move toward your purpose, serve others with your gifts, and trust Jesus with the outcome. If you're on the Mississippi Gulf Coast, you'll also hear how to catch Andy live at The Sanctuary in Biloxi.If this conversation stirs something in you, do not ignore it.

GOP Chairman Michael Whatley argues that the upcoming elections represent a fundamental choice between common sense policies and what he characterizes as the woke extremism of the Democratic Party.

This episode is presented by Create A Video – Democrats and media (but I repeat myself) think they've got their "Cal Cunningham BBQ" moment in the US Senate race in North Carolina. After the Michael Whatley campaign tweeted a graphic in support of the Carolina Hurricanes in the Stanley Cup Finals, a reporter asked him to name three players. Whatley said he liked the entire team. Outrage ensued. Oh! Also... the Twitter graphic had an AI-generated image of a hockey player. This is also an outrage to media. Oh! Also... if it were an actual picture of a Hurricanes player that would "raise questions" about whether the campaign had the legal right to use the image. This, too, is an outrage. If it happened. Which it didn't.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-pete-kaliner-show--6946691/support.Subscribe to the podcast My preferred podcast platform: SpreakerAll the links to Pete's Prep are free!Get exclusive content here!Media Bias Check: GroundNews promo code!Advertising and Booking inquiries: Pete@ThePeteKalinerShow.com

Tune in here to this Thursday's edition of the Brett Winterble Show! Brett kicks off the program by talking about what he sees as a dramatic shift in White House strategy and the political fallout he believes is rattling Democrats nationwide. He argues that renewed scrutiny of fraud, law enforcement actions, and transparency is exposing long-simmering controversies, including what he dubs “Cooper-gate,” surrounding the release of thousands of inmates and the lack of public accountability around their backgrounds. Brett questions Governor Roy Cooper’s denials, calls for full disclosure, and suggests panic is setting in among political insiders as details continue to emerge. We’re joined by Michael Whatley from North Carolina, former RNC chairman and U.S. Senate candidate, to talk about the growing controversy surrounding Governor Roy Cooper’s prison release settlement and broader concerns over public safety and accountability. Whatley breaks down the lawsuit that led to the release of roughly 3,500 inmates during Cooper’s tenure, the secrecy around the list of those released, and the revelation that DeCarlos Brown Jr.—later convicted in a fatal Charlotte light rail murder—was among them. He rejects claims that the early release “doesn’t count,” arguing responsibility still rests with the governor who approved the deal. The discussion also touches on cashless bail, repeat offenders, and unanswered questions about how many other released inmates may have gone on to commit violent crimes. Throughout the conversation, Whatley calls for transparency, a public reckoning, and clearer explanations from Roy Cooper as he seeks higher office, framing the issue as a defining test of leadership, judgment, and commitment to keeping communities safe. Brett is also joined by Patrick Dorinson, author of The Common Sense Cowboy’s Guide to Life, to talk about cowboy values, personal responsibility, and timeless life lessons that feel increasingly rare in modern culture. Dorinson shares his unconventional journey from suburban California into the working cowboy world, explaining how loss, hard-earned experience, and time on the range shaped his outlook. The conversation explores the importance of trust, keeping your word, self-reliance, and learning how to fix problems instead of outsourcing responsibility or blame. Dorinson contrasts old-school common sense with today’s impulse to litigate mistakes and avoid accountability, arguing that adversity is often life’s best teacher. He also reflects on regret, resilience, and the need to stop dwelling on “what might have been” in favor of action and perseverance. Throughout the segment, Brett and Dorensen highlight a shared belief that character, grit, and humility remain essential tools for navigating a chaotic world.

Steel Truth / Steel News Special Edition — “Underdogs vs. The Establishment: Dr. Makis and Don Brown, candidate US Senate”Today, Ann Vandersteel sits down with Dr. William Makis, a Canadian nuclear medicine physician whose fearless investigations into COVID-19, vaccine injuries, “turbo cancers,” and medical ethics have placed him at the forefront of a global battle against censorship and institutional corruption. From his groundbreaking Substack publications documenting cancer remissions involving ivermectin, fenbendazole, mebendazole, and CBD oil, to his exposés on government and medical board retaliation, Dr. Makis stands as one of the most outspoken underdogs pushing back against a system that punishes dissent.In Segment Two, we turn to North Carolina U.S. Senate candidate Don Brown, a constitutionalist and veteran bulldog fighting another kind of institutional overreach — the political class that has sold out its citizens. His campaign is a direct challenge to entrenched power, and his conversation with Ann this morning sets the tone for a new generation of liberty candidates.Today's show is about courage, confrontation, and reclaiming truth in an age of medical and governmental tyranny.Ann is the co-founder of AmericanMadeFoundation.org and AmericanMadeAction.orgFollow: ANN VANDERSTEEL https://AnnVandersteel.comFollow Ann Vandersteel on Pickax - https://pickax.com/annvandersteel

Meet my friends, Clay Travis and Buck Sexton! If you love Verdict, the Clay Travis and Buck Sexton Show might also be in your audio wheelhouse. Politics, news analysis, and some pop culture and comedy thrown in too. Here’s a sample episode recapping four takeaways. Give the guys a listen and then follow and subscribe wherever you get your podcasts. Follow the Epstein Money The Epstein Transparency Act, which passed unanimously in the Senate after near-unanimous House approval. Buck breaks down what this means: once President Trump signs the bill, the Justice Department will have 30 days to release Jeffrey Epstein-related files. The discussion explores whether these disclosures will provide real answers or lead to further demands for transparency. Buck emphasizes the unanswered question of Epstein’s billion-dollar fortune and the suspicious financial transactions flagged by JP Morgan and Deutsche Bank. He argues that following the money is key to uncovering the truth. Clay Calls in from Italy Clay calls from Rome and shares details of his mission: delivering an invitation for the Pope to throw out the first pitch at a future Chicago White Sox game, a unique gesture tied to the team’s new ownership and stadium plans. This segment blends sports, faith, and global intrigue, making it a must-hear for fans of both baseball and world affairs. A Critical Race in NC Buck welcomes Michael Whatley, former RNC Chair and current candidate for U.S. Senate in North Carolina. Whatley details the fallout from Governor Roy Cooper’s veto of legislation requiring sheriffs to honor ICE detainers, which has led to a surge in illegal immigration and crime. They discuss shocking statistics, including 21,000 students absent from Charlotte schools in one day due to immigration enforcement fears, and over 200 arrests of criminal illegal aliens in recent ICE operations. Whatley warns of the massive financial burden on state resources—from Medicaid to education—and contrasts his tough-on-crime stance with Cooper’s record of vetoing tax cuts, police pay raises, and bills protecting women’s sports. He predicts the North Carolina Senate race will be the most expensive in U.S. history, with Democrats pouring in hundreds of millions to flip the seat. The Misled Boss Babes Buck dives into a Pew Research study on marriage trends among Gen Z, revealing that only 61% of 12th-grade girls want to marry compared to 74% of boys. He critiques cultural messaging that promotes “boss babe” ideology and hookup culture, arguing it misleads young women and undermines long-term happiness. Buck contrasts this with a resurgence of traditional values among young men, who increasingly reject toxic masculinity narratives and embrace leadership, family, and faith. He calls for a cultural reset that prioritizes stable family formation and meaningful relationships over superficial social media-driven dating norms.

Tune in here to this Thursday's edition of the Brett Winterble Show! Brett kicks off the program by talking about the reopening of the government and the struggles facing the Democratic Party. He highlights the relief of seeing the government back in operation after weeks of political gridlock and jokes about how exhausting it was to cover nonstop for more than a month. Brett then shifts to criticizing Democratic leadership, arguing that the party is stuck between aging establishment figures and extreme radicals, leaving no functional middle. He notes that Senator John Fetterman stands out as an exception and praises him for engaging across the political spectrum We’re joined by Michael Whatley, chairman of the North Carolina Republican Party and candidate for the U.S. Senate, to talk about the recent government shutdown and the direction of the Democratic Party heading into the next election cycle. Whatley criticized Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer for prioritizing his political interests over the American people, calling the shutdown a self-inflicted crisis that hurt working families, soldiers, and law enforcement officers. He argued that Democrats have failed to learn from their 2024 election losses and continue to push an agenda out of step with most Americans. Whatley also raised concerns about the “weaponization” of government agencies against political opponents and underscored the need for strong conservative leadership in Congress. He said he is running to be a reliable ally for President Trump and to ensure that North Carolina has a steadfast, conservative voice in the U.S. Senate.
