The devolution of local media has led to the loss of a shared perspective and common ground with people increasingly fragmented into siloed information bubbles. Local newspapers, radio shows and TV personalities used to connect the community by covering local events, personalities, and issues that brought people together across different backgrounds. We’re taking a nostalgic look back at when cultural touchstones like Walt Bodine and Paul Harvey served as voices for our community. Enjoy the memories.

“The Hunt.” It’s a Jack Cashill co-written book which involves a father and two sons thwarting a terrorist plot while elk hunting. But now you can help create the sequel called “Skeleton Crew” The premise is that everyone who got the COVID vaccine dies, leaving mainly the unvaccinated rural/working class population and military personnel alive.

Thanks to what we call banana republicans in Washington, we shudder as they fail to stand up for conservative principles and the Constitution in exchange for a comfortable lobbying job or pensions. In the meantime…Democrats have an active agenda and the banana republicans offer no real opposition.

In this episode, they dive into the world of golf, proposing to explore what golf tells us about America, beyond mere golf stories. Calling golf a meritocracy, they admire its individualism and anti-collectivism, comparing professional golfers to entrepreneurs. They lament the politicization of sports and society's shift towards ephemeral issues, contrasting it with golf's enduring values. They reflect on golf's unique position as a sport and metaphor for life's challenges and triumphs. From Hootie Johnson to Tiger Woods you’ll never look at the game the same way again.

Our hosts argue that such policies, including Daylight Savings, stem from progressive-era movements that introduced major amendments and societal changes. They discuss how these impositions reflect a broader trend of government control, touching upon related topics like climate change narratives and technological dependence. What time is it anyway?
