You're listening to American Ground Radio with Louis R. Avallone and Stephen Parr. This is the full show for March 27, 2026. 

In this episode of American Ground Radio, we start with a jaw-dropping question: when did enforcing the law become something taxpayers have to apologize for? A push from Representative Pramila Jayapal for reparations for illegal immigrants sparks conversation about fairness, the rule of law, and who really gets left behind in today’s political priorities. 

From there, we break down the Top 3 Things You Need to Know, including a late-night Senate maneuver that raises serious transparency concerns, a new anti-fraud crackdown led by J. D. Vance already cutting off suspicious funding streams, and a major ethics scandal that could lead to a member of Congress being expelled.

Then, we ask American Mamas Teri Netterville and Kimberly Burleson: should celebrities just stay out of politics? Rock legend Gene Simmons says yes—and the Mamas don’t hold back. From Hollywood hypocrisy to the growing disconnect between elites and everyday Americans, this conversation hits a nerve and asks whether celebrity voices carry any real weight anymore… or if they’ve talked themselves into irrelevance.

Next, we go Digging Deep into one of the most iconic—and overlooked—pieces of American military power: the A-10 Warthog. It’s old, it’s loud, it’s anything but stealthy… and it might still be the most effective weapon we have in modern warfare. Why does the military keep trying to retire it? And what does that say about how we think about innovation, cost, and combat in the 21st century?

Of course, it wouldn’t be Friday without Fake News Friday, where headlines get put to the test. Some are real. Some are fake. And some are so ridiculous they should be fake—but aren’t. Play along and see how well you can spot the difference.

In our Moment of Whoa, we take a hard look at a story that didn’t get nearly enough attention—a reminder that sometimes the most revealing headlines aren’t the ones dominating the news cycle. It’s the kind of moment that makes you stop and say… wait, what?

And finally, we close things out with a little perspective—and a lot of wisdom—from The Lord of the Rings. In a world that feels increasingly chaotic, these timeless quotes remind us about courage, purpose, and why some things are still worth fighting for.

All that and more in this episode of American Ground Radio—where the conversation is real, the questions are tough, and nothing is off limits.
