American Fork: American Fork High School student and track star, Daniel Simmons, broke the 5000 meter race record by 18 seconds. Congratulations Daniel. Good luck at BYU. Also, body of adventurer extraordinaire Jordan Boone, former high school mate of yours truly, found in Grant County. RIP Jordan.

Utah: Turns out Brine Shrimp are not the only species living in the Great Salt Lake. There is a species of roundworm living there also. So neat!

National: US House votes to ban TikTok. We’re one step closer to data security… right? Be careful with this bill. Also, the Alec Baldwin case gets spicier. Guns and props and props and guns and safety.

World: Phil is driving to Texas to see the total solar eclipse on April 8. Weird things expected to happen. Animals freak out when an eclipse happens. National Guard in some locations are being deployed. Is the end of the world going to happen this time?

Galactic: SpaceX’s Starship launch was a success. Or was it? Phil thinks it wasn’t. Did we even make it to moon bro? Meanwhile, Japan’s test rocket explodes within thousands of feet after launch.

Terry Carter: Terry teased us with a few amazing stories from his treasure hunts. Stay tuned for pt.2 next week.

Phil hosted. Jake and Jeff were there, too. Mike accidentally called in. As always, we try to bring America together.

American Fork: Caregiver at the American Fork Developmental Center was arrested for sexual abuse of a disabled patient at the facility. Some people just need Jesus.

Utah: State Legislature just gave legal immunity to religious leaders who report illegal activity confessed to them by a member of their clergy. Many people are very torn on this topic. Was this the right move for the state of Utah lawmakers to make?

National: The judge over Donald Trump’s Mar-a-Lago fraud case has sentenced Trump to over $455M fine and cannot do business in New York for three years. Mr. Wonderful is labeling New York as a loser/flyover state and advises all business owners to not do business in the state. Should New York suffer because of this obviously biased case?

Also, Val Kilmer jokes.

Jeff hosted. Phil, Trent and Jake were there, too. We tried to make this a musical. It didn’t land.

As always, we try to bring America together. Here's what's happening in the world:

American Fork: Two duck hunters saved a canoist’s life near the #AmericanFork boat harbor who fell into the freezing cold lake. Adult joke #1 check. Also, a snowmobiler got caught up in an avalanche on his sled. He was trapped for nearly 15 minutes. He was rescued by some men nearby who dug him out and warmed him up. His prayers were answered. Adult joke #2 check.

Utah: Discussed the top 10 cities to NOT live in Utah. But, are the worst cities in Utah really that bad? Domestic dispute road rage crash between a married couple driving separate vehicles at over 100 miles per hour. But, what did she do? USANA Amphitheater name has changed.

National: What are the top 5 American foods? Find out on this episode. Why is SpaceX is so much better than all the rest?

Backpacking Trip: We’re going to Yellowstone this year. Let’s do this!

Jake hosted. Phil, Jeff, Tyler and Trent were there, too. It’s the year of the Dragon! 2024 will be a mythical year. What better way to start it off than by drinking a pre-workout at 8 pm? What’s your favorite Ghost drink flavor?

As always, we try to bring America together. Here's what's happening in the world:

American Fork: Elderly couple found dead in their home in central American Fork. Concerned neighbors called the police to do a welfare check. No foul play expected. Cause of death unknown.

Utah: 26,000 square-foot mansion in Orem burned down. The home had code compliance issues. Recently listed for sale at almost $4M. Arson is expected.

National: Many states are trying to remove Donald Trump from the ballot because of his involvement in the January 6 capital breach. Should he be able to run for President? So far, he has not been found guilty in any court of law.

Entertainment: Phil learns how to dab and we discuss what shows we're watching. Trent hates the #barbiemovie. #schittscreek is the best.

The #epsteinfiles are kind of a dud so far. Still waiting for the juicy content.

Phil hosted (with the help of caffeine). Jnco jeans are back and rocking hard.

As always, we try to bring America together. American Fork: The AFHS marching band took first in state and regionals. Also, a downed Vietnam war pilot from American Fork was found and retuned home to be buried.

Utah: We may be getting a 300-foot statue in Draper. It’s called the Statue of Responsibility. Is this a good idea? Do statues make a state better? Statues, missionaries, dog, soup.

National: @RudyGiuliani is not able to pay all the fees from his defamation lawsuit. How do you put a dollar amount on a lawsuit based on one’s reputation? How does the state collect money in this case? Is election fraud as big of a deal as many on the right made it out to be?

World: The war in Gaza is still going on. How are we supposed to know which party to side with in this war? There is so much propaganda from both sides. Should the US continue to be involved? Is the Second Coming of Jesus nigh? Do they just need Christmas in their lives?

Christmas: So many traditions so little time. When is it too much? Work, family, neighbors, friends, church… all the parties, celebrations and gifts. It’s exhausting. Jeff doesn’t want gifts, but he loves to see his kids open presents. Shout out to #PaulRudd for shouting out the #LighTheWorld #GivingMachine. That’s neat.

Phil’s personal care: Dr. Phil revealed his wives tail theory about cutting a V in his toenail to not get hangnails. Dry ice for warts.

National: Derek Chauvin was stabbed in prison. Should he even be in prison? Turns out Jeff has a weird obsession with police videos.

World: Israel and Hamas agreed on a cease-fire so some prisoners can be released.

Pardon the sudden end to the episode. We had some technical difficulties.

Phil hosted. Jeff, Jake and Trent were there, too.

As always, we try to bring America together. American Fork: The Sticky Shoe is coming being resurrected as a movie theater as @MavenCinemas. Good luck this time around Dvorah and Joseph Governale.

Utah: The new Utah Stage flag is official. We have mixed feelings about it. But, Utah is still the same. Also, Governor Cox is not happy that the BLM is closing some 300 miles of trails and cutting back on the wild mustang herd numbers that surround Moab. Why? Because environmentalism. Phil is worked up about it. How much of an impact do humans actually have on the planet?

National: Does Donald Trump have more lawsuits than he can handle? Is he going to run for President from jail? Is he still relevant? Does it make you like someone more when the entire establishment is against them? For Jake it does. What is the freakin deal with tipping and self-checkout? Can the entire country just agree that tipping is completely out of hand? And, if we're expected to scan our own groceries, shouldn't we at least get a discount?

Trent's Tip: If you're ever feeling bad about yourself, go to Walmart.

World: The middle east is officially at war. Is this the beginning of WWIII? Should we bring citizens of Gaza to the US? Is it good for the US to be involved at all? Should we stop being the world police?
