The Peter Boyles Show - May 9, 2026 Hour 4: This hour brings Jonathan Flora and Deborah Flora into studio with Peter Boyles for another deep dive into the controversy surrounding Victor Marx and the fallout from the earlier hours of the show. The conversation shifts from basic questions about Marx’s background into a broader discussion about media scrutiny, political campaigns, credibility, and how public figures build larger-than-life personal stories.

Jonathan Flora pushes into the documentary and storytelling side of the issue, while Deborah Flora talks through the political and public perception angles as Boyles revisits claims involving overseas missions, military-style narratives, and campaign questions. The hour feels less like an interview and more like a roundtable trying to sort out what’s fact, what’s exaggeration, and why the story has become such a major topic in Colorado political circles.

The Peter Boyles Show - May 9, 2026 Hour 3: In this hour, the conversation continues with Orson Swindle and retired Major General Tru Eyre as the stories shift from surviving captivity to finally coming home. Swindle shares memories of returning from Vietnam after years as a POW, reconnecting with family, and the strange adjustment back to American life after living inside prison camps for nearly seven years.

A big part of the hour centers on John McCain — what he was like as a fellow prisoner, the bond between POWs, and how those experiences shaped the rest of their lives. The hour has a more reflective tone than Hour 2, mixing humor, hard memories, and stories about friendship, survival, and what happened after the war finally ended.

The Peter Boyles Show - May 9, 2026 Hour 2: Hour 2 turns into a long-form conversation between Peter Boyles, retired Major General Tru Eyre, and former Vietnam POW Orson Swindle. Swindle walks through flying combat missions in Vietnam, being shot down near the end of his tour, and spending nearly seven years inside North Vietnamese prison camps, including the Hanoi Hilton. The hour mixes war stories, fighter pilot culture, POW survival tactics, and reflections on the men he served alongside.

Swindle also talks about communicating through tap codes, surviving torture, meeting figures like Henry Kissinger and Ronald Reagan after returning home, and the lasting bond between POWs. Boyles mostly lets the stories breathe, giving the whole hour the feel of sitting at the table listening to veterans swap unforgettable memories.

The Peter Boyles Show - May 9, 2026 Hour 1: Peter Boyles spends most of Hour 1 digging into the growing controversy around Victor Marx with guests Cori Kennedy and Steve Reams. Kennedy explains why she went from supporter to skeptic after researching Marx’s claims about mentoring Charlie Kirk, overseas rescue missions, martial arts credentials, and his ministry work in Haiti and the Middle East. Reams joins in to talk through the parts of Marx’s story that he says simply don’t add up.

The hour turns into a wide-ranging conversation about campaign money, orphanages in Haiti, alleged rescue numbers, and even a decades-old homicide story Marx has publicly discussed. Boyles pushes back on several of the claims in real time while Kennedy lays out the research she says led her deeper down the rabbit hole.

The Peter Boyles Show - May 2, 2026 Hour 3: 

In this intense, no-holds-barred hour of radio, Peter Boyles sits down face-to-face with in-studio guest Victor Marx to tackle the controversy surrounding Marx’ past—from disputed high-level martial arts credentials to bold claims of operating in some of the world’s most dangerous conflict zones. What starts as a technical debate over black belts quickly escalates into a deeper examination of credibility, with Boyles pressing hard on inconsistencies and demanding real answers.

The conversation moves far beyond martial arts, diving into Haiti, Gaza, Iraq, and Syria, where Marx describes working alongside special operations teams, providing trauma care, and participating in high-risk missions. Along the way, the two clash over what it really means to “rescue” people, the role of media criticism, and why Marx has suddenly become a target as he steps into politics. Whether you walk away convinced or skeptical, this is raw, unscripted talk radio at its best—tense, personal, and impossible to ignore.

The Peter Boyles Show - May 2, 2026 Hour 2: Peter Boyles shifts from nostalgic stories about his early radio days and falling in love with country music into a more serious conversation about Colorado’s governor’s race, including discussion of a Republican candidate promoting explosive child-trafficking allegations tied to QAnon-style conspiracy claims.

Callers question why the accusations haven’t gotten more attention while also criticizing the candidate for focusing more on fundraising than policy specifics like roads, budgets, and governing priorities. Boyles says he intends to bring the candidate on for a direct interview centered on verifying the claims and pressing for answers.

The hour later relaxes into a long conversation about Denver nightlife history, old clubs, radio promotions, and concert memories, including Boyles sharing behind-the-scenes stories from his days emceeing country acts and a memorable encounter with Jerry Lee Lewis arriving late and visibly impaired before a show.

The Peter Boyles Show - April 25, 2026 Hour 4: 

Peter Boyles continues the labor debate with Trisha Calvarese in studio, as callers take the conversation in a new direction—AI, automation, and the future of work.

From deep mine stories to modern tech fears, listeners weigh in on unions, the collapse of traditional career paths, and whether trades are the only path left. The conversation turns to college costs, student debt, and whether higher education is still worth it.

A grounded, caller-driven hour on where American workers stand right now—and what’s coming next.
