Closing out the first year of their Leaning Right and Turning Left podcast, Sadler and the Senator celebrate their 50th episode by looking back on the year that was. In the beginning of 2022, Hermie and Bill were embroiled in (what has turned out to be a totally successful) lawsuit against Governor Northam and Attorney General Mark Herring in a fight for small businesses over government overreach-- so what did these two knuckleheads decide to do? Well first, they started a race team (Sadler/Stanley Racing) in order to highlight short track racing in rural areas and the importance of small businesses in those areas; and then, they started this podcast in order to document their legal fight against the government -- to talk about short track racing and current NASCAR® news -- to explore state and national politics that matter to us all on an honest and open platform --- and even to discuss their mutual passion for professional wrasslin’! I mean, where else can you get all of that content wrapped up in one show? Here, that’s where! 

The boys announce that because of the incredible success of the show, they have been signed for another year, and discuss all the big topics and celebrity guests in the world of politics, wrasslin’ and racing that they are going to have on the podcast in 2023. Listen as they discuss today’s political climate, the process of candidate nomination in Virginia, and they even discuss what appears to be the casinos’ recent “charm offensive” in the media heading into the GA session. And, perhaps most shockingly, Hermie and Bill reveal what may be a new strategy of the Virginia Lottery to screw small business convenience store owners if they have legitimate skill games in their stores. Sadler and Stanley finish up the first segment of the podcast by talking about how Christmas weekend went for their families, a look back on the year that is ending and the one that is to begin, and even discuss their personal New Year’s resolutions to start 2023 on the good foot! And then, Hermie Sadler picks his favorite racing interview of the podcast this year, and we play it for you -- NASCAR® LEGEND KYLE PETTY!!! You don’t want to miss this great year-ending episode of “Leaning Right and Turning Left With Sadler and The Senator,” powered by Pace-O-Matic!

Now run over and put the last strand of tinsel on the tree, get that tray of gingerbread cookies in the oven, and get ready to get in the spirit for the upcoming Christmas celebration with Sadler and the Senator as they talk family traditions, family holiday issues, and, well….family in a hilarious discussion about the upcoming holiday. The boys are on location this week at the Sadler Travel Plaza in Suffolk, Virginia -- and while they are there recording the podcast, they engage in a spontaneous and wonderful conversation with Sadler’s General Manager at the truck stop, Rita Beaman -- who is not only a hoot to talk to, but also is an inspiration for us all in her moving story of how her sheer determination to succeed, and “can-do” spirit, is the epitome of today’s American Dream. 

Hermie and Bill also talk about what Christmas means to both them and their families through the years, and Hermie even tries to give the Senator some fatherly advice on how to handle situations during the holidays when your teenage daughter (Hermie has three daughters, Stanley only has one) has…..dare I say… a boyfriend. According to Stanley, it’s a situation that no father should have to face when their darling daughters actually grow up; but according to Hermie, Stanley needs to adjust his fatherly thinking in these matters in order to be successful in navigating these new waters. (Judge for yourself who is right, and whether or not the Senator will even listen to Sadler’s advice!) 

So turn the volume of the Christmas songs on your radio down, and crank up the volume on this week’s episode of Leaning Right and Turning Left with Sadler and the Senator as they celebrate the joys of Christmas and family with you, the listener. Both Hermie and Bill hope that each and every one of you have a most blessed and wonderful celebration of Christmas with your family. And we thank you so much for listening and your support of this podcast!

It has been a busy and highly successful legal week for the Leaning Right and Turning Left Team, and they bring all of it right to you in this action-packed podcast adventure! Hermie and Bill jump right into the mix to discuss their big fat hairy win (again) in the Greensville Circuit Court for small businesses against unconstitutional government overreach! Listen as the boys break down the legal issues, the future political ramifications that this ruling on skill games may have on the 2023 Virginia General Assembly, the government’s continuing insistence in sticking with its failed legal arguments, the “how and why” Sadler and Stanley won (again), and what exactly the Court found when it ruled (yep, once again) in favor of Hermie Sadler and for free speech and due process protections for Virginia small business owners throughout the Commonwealth.

After that, Sadler and the Senator have an in-depth conversation about one of Stanley’s clients, the Smith family of Loudoun County: how the just-released and devastating Report of the Loudoun County Special Grand Jury impacts their child (who was brutally attacked at her public high school); how it impacts all families of children who attend public school in Virginia and all over the country; the alarming details of just what happened and why these school administrators chose woke policies over their students’ safety; and, why Bill Stanley and his clients Jessica and Scott Smith are committed to standing strong for both their family and other Virginia families in order to hold the Loudoun County Public School Board accountable for putting its own political interests above the interests of the families and community that it is supposed to serve and protect.

Hermie, Shep and Stanley get together to discuss today’s topics in both society and politics, and then they open the door to a deep dive discussion about the most awesome responsibility a man can ever have: being a dad. They discuss their own upbringings, the significant influence that each of their dads had on them growing up – and their words of wisdom that made them into the dads that they are today.

In Stanley’s “Leaning Right Moment,” Hermie and Bill discuss the terrible results of the National Educational Assessment (NEAP) test, that showed significant declines in the past two years in both reading in math for Virginia public school students (the worst decline in the nation), why it happened, and what Gov. Youngkin and Republicans plan to do to turn those scores around in the immediate future. Hermie also discusses with Stanley the alarming fact that the United States may just RUN OUT of its diesel fuel supply in the next thirty days (yep, you heard that right), and what that could mean for gas prices, food prices and supply chain issues nationwide.

This week, its just Hermie and Senator Stanley having a good old-fashioned sit down chat about the goings on in gambling, politics and stock car racing as only the two can have!  The boys gab about Hermie’s trip to Double J Jeff Jarrett’s house, his impending wrasslin’ match with Jeff’s son while he is there for the Darrel and Michael Waltrip Charity Event, and they give everyone an update on the progress of their lawsuit for small businesses against the Commonwealth of Virginia, and they even discuss whether or not the new proposal of oversight of gaming in Virginia will be good for the state.

In Stanley’s “Leaning Right Moment,” the guys talk about the internal politics of the possible match-up of Hermie with another Republican politician in the newly-created 17th State Senate District, and what endorsements really mean to a race. And, the Senator rails against a Northern Virginia liberal Democrat, state Delegate Elizabeth Guzman, who is submitting a new bill for consideration by the Virginia state legislature in 2023 that would subject parents to investigations by Child Protective Services, have their child removed from them, and face potential criminal charges if they didn’t acquiesce to and “affirm” their child’s desire to “transition” from their biological gender.

In Hermie’s “Turning Left Moment,” Sadler and the Senator discuss one of the SMART Series’ top drivers Burt Myers’ Disqualification (after a post-race inspection) from his first place finish at the SMART race at Tri-County Speedway for “cheating up” his car with illegal electronic equipment, how it affects the Series as a whole and the Series Championship race at the Motor Mile Speedway this Saturday, and the boys also discuss the wild incident at the NASCAR® race in Vegas involving Cup driver Bubba Wallace intentionally wrecking (and unsuccessfully) trying to fight fellow driver Kyle Larson, and what that means for racing.
