April 04, 2026Episode 347: Real Talk 4-4-2026As we celebrate this Easter weekend it seems that the world is in the final stages of the spiritual battle described in the Bible. The left continues to protest any cause that Trump supports. Often they don't even know why they are protesting. State Legislatures continue to write additional laws limiting our constitutional rights. The United States appears to have allied with the King of the North against the King of the South as described by John in Revelations. These are truly troubling times we live in. As we celebrate the great gift we received from God in sacrificing his Son Jesus Christ for our sins, we should all spend time with family and reflect on the word of God. I hope everyone has a blessed peaceful Easter. ...more57minPlay

March 14, 2026Episode 344: Real Talk 4-14-2026The longer the straight of Hormuz is closed the more people in third world countries will starve. It is not just the oil. It is the fertilizer.

February 21, 2026Episode 341: Real Talk 2-21-2026California Democrat Congress members are visiting their districts claiming that the high cost of housing, gas and electricity in California are all caused by Trump and Republicans. Meanwhile the California legislature is trying to devise ways and reasons to break Proposition 13. In Nashville Tennessee where there are no protections for property owners one owner made the news because his property tax is going up from $160,000 to $600,000 forcing him to sell his business. A San Francisco professor claims that Proposition 13 costs the state $43 billion a year in uncollected property taxes. He further notes that the longer you own a home in California the more disparate the property tax becomes, unfairly helping older white people to keep their homes. In most red states seniors get major property tax breaks. In California they are trying to figure out how to tax seniors and force them to sell their homes.

Newsom says that California will start laying tracks this year on the High Speed Choo Choo Train to nowhere. The truth is that they are nowhere near laying any tracks.

During that time their policies have destroyed the once great state. Farmers are forced to idle their crops. California has the highest energy prices in the country. The least affordable housing. The highest taxes. Our schools and roads are near the bottom of every measure of achievement and our Governor is going around the country bragging about his abilities to lead. There is an election coming. Will California start to turn the pendulum back or double down on stupid. We discuss all of this and more on this week's Real Talk.
