HOUR 1

Hour 1 of https://RushToReason.com

opens with a sobering and deeply personal discussion following the tragic plane crash near Steamboat Springs involving automotive industry leader Aaron Stokes. John Rush and Jerzee Joe, an experienced pilot, explain why this flight represented a near worst-case scenario—nighttime conditions, instrument weather, mountain terrain, and a notoriously unforgiving airport. What turns a flight into a clear “no-go,” and how does pressure push even experienced pilots toward dangerous decisions?

The conversation expands into aviation judgment, “get-there-itis,” and why impatience can be deadly in the air or on the road. John then pivots to Colorado realities, including high winds, power shutoffs, and why being prepared for 24 hours without electricity is simple common sense.

The hour closes with a thoughtful debate on Broomfield’s proposed RV parking ordinance. Is it government overreach—or a necessary step to protect neighborhoods and property values while balancing compassion? Where does responsibility meet regulation?

HOUR 2

Hour 2 delivers a fast-moving mix of culture, policy, and performance as Ann Schlafly of Eagle Forum (https://eagleforum.org) joins John to react to a surprising shift from the New York Times on marijuana legalization. Have the risks of high-THC marijuana been ignored for too long? Ann explains why today’s cannabis is far more potent—and dangerous—than what existed decades ago.

John then answers listener questions about marijuana crossing state lines and whether law enforcement cooperation is unconstitutional or simply the reality of states’ rights. That theme of accountability continues with a pointed discussion on toll evasion, obscured license plates, and expired tags.

The hour lightens with Richard Rush, covering Michael Jordan’s Daytona 500 win, whether NASCAR needs a reboot, and standout moments from the Winter Olympics. Hour 2 wraps with car reviews of the 2026 Volkswagen Tiguan SEL R-Line Turbo and the 2026 Lexus NX 350h F Sport AWD.

HOUR 3

Hour 3 dives into national security as Ammon Blair of the Texas Public Policy Foundation (https://www.texaspolicy.com) joins John Rush to explain what really happened behind the FAA shutdown near El Paso and New Mexico. Was it just a balloon—or a warning sign? Ammon details how Mexican cartels are now using advanced drone warfare tactics learned from Ukraine, exposing major blind spots along the southern border and even near U.S. military installations.

The hour continues with callers weighing in on aviation safety, unrest in Iran, and the human cost rarely seen in headlines. John then challenges climate-alarm narratives tied to Trump policy reversals, questioning multibillion-dollar cost projections for Colorado.

The show closes with a hard look at the everyday consequences of progressive policy—from rising vehicle costs driven by federal mandates to Denver’s controversial bike lanes. Are these changes improving life—or making it harder for the people who live and drive here?

Friday means 5-Star Movie Reviews with Andy Peth, and this week delivers a bold triple feature that spans dystopian AI, zombie horror, and anime-inspired revenge.

Andy opens with Good Luck, Have Fun, Don’t Die, a bizarre, near-future warning about artificial intelligence run amok. While Andy praises Sam Rockwell’s brilliant, manic performance and stunning CGI payoff, he doesn’t hold back on calling out its flaws.

Next up is Cold Storage, where a space fungus turns humans into zombies. Andy highlights solid pacing, fun gross-out effects, and a reliable action turn from Liam Neeson, but Andy can’t give it 5 stars. Find out why.

The hour wraps with Scarlet, a visually striking anime reimagining of Hamlet featuring a warrior princess caught between vengeance and forgiveness. Andy applauds the epic scale, villain, and emotional weight, but criticizes its heavy-handed pacifist messaging and talky middle. This film will spark debates long after the credits have rolled. The result?

Which one, if any are worth your time? Andy breaks it all down.

HOUR 2

Hour 2 opens with sharp energy as John, Andy, and Richard dive into what went wrong with a Super Bowl that felt more flat than fierce. Was it elite defense—or just an uncompetitive mismatch? And can one brutal game permanently rattle a young quarterback?

From there, the conversation pivots into pop culture, Super Bowl commercials, and the bigger question: why does Hollywood feel so uninspired right now? Where did the great romantic comedies go? Why do movies feel longer, heavier, and less fun? Andy argues that weak writing, preachy messaging, and the disappearance of true comedy are draining entertainment of its joy.

Then the mood flips. The crew launches into a Valentine’s-themed love-song segment packed with movie memories, nostalgia, listener calls, and playful banter. Which songs still hit emotionally? Which movies defined romance for an entire generation? And can classic storytelling—whether in music or film—still connect when modern Hollywood seems to miss the mark?

It’s funny, opinionated, nostalgic, and unexpectedly revealing. One hour, big questions—about sports, culture, creativity, and what we’ve lost along the way.

HOUR 1

Hour 1 of https://RushToReason.com opens with intensity as John Rush is joined by Dr. Kelly Victory, an independent physician known for challenging mainstream medical narratives. Together, they tackle explosive questions about medical ethics, patient trust, and whether ideology is creeping into health care decisions. Can patients be treated differently based on political beliefs—and who holds providers accountable if that happens?

The conversation pivots to a disturbing trend: the sharp rise in aggressive colon cancer among adults under 50. Why now? Dr. Kelly breaks down immune dysfunction, delayed screening guidelines, and why early detection may matter more than ever. They also examine vaccines through a strict risk-versus-benefit lens, questioning long-term effects, unresolved scientific gaps, and why so many questions were never answered before the mandates were rolled out.

As the hour closes, the focus shifts to personal choice versus government control, including whether states should set their own vaccine rules—and what that could mean for families deciding where to live. Is the public finally asking the questions it should have asked years ago?

HOUR 2

Hour 2 of Rush To Reason is a fast-moving, no-filter breakdown of viral memes, cultural flashpoints, and the history many headlines leave out. John takes on trending social media claims—from Super Bowl halftime outrage to religious and political memes—asking a simple question: do these slogans survive even basic fact-checking? Drawing on history, economics, and plain logic, Rush challenges comparisons to segregation, reframes the debate over free markets and choice, and explains why competition—not conformity—drives excellence.

Listeners also weigh in, connecting today’s talking points to the Civil Rights era, immigration policy, and modern definitions of “choice,” especially when government mandates force others to pay the bill. The hour presses on a recurring theme: are we debating facts anymore, or just narratives? If history, data, and personal responsibility matter, why do some arguments collapse the moment scrutiny is applied? This hour equips listeners with context, counterpoints, and questions the memes don’t want you asking.

HOUR 3

Hour 3 of Rush To Reason moves fast and wide, with Jerzee Joe and Larry Burns joining John Rush for a conversation that blends humor, policy, and hard consequences. Jerzee Joe (https://www.jerzeejoe.com/) breaks down government programs that never seem to end, skewers media narratives, and challenges double standards on voter ID, gun ownership, taxes, and public safety. From Super Bowl “jock taxes” to states losing wealth and residents, the question keeps surfacing: when policies punish success, who actually stays?

Larry Burns (https://www.powerthefuture.com/) then zeroes in on energy and regulation, explaining why rolling back sweeping EPA rules could lower costs, improve reliability, and reshape everything from cars to power plants. The hour closes by turning to artificial intelligence, where sudden breakthroughs raise urgent questions about jobs, productivity, and the massive energy demands ahead. Are we prepared for how fast things are changing—or are we still debating yesterday’s rules?

On this Health & Wellness Wednesday episode of https://RushToReason.com, John Rush asks questions most people avoid—until it’s too late. John explores how everyday choices quietly shape long-term outcomes, from skin health to cancer prevention.

Leo Park, CEO of Soul Beauty Club (https://www.seoulbeautyclub.com/), challenges Western skincare thinking, explaining why Korean beauty focuses on hydration, skin-barrier health, and long-term routines—not quick fixes. Why are men increasingly paying attention too? And are Americans damaging their skin by doing too much, too soon?

Then the conversation deepens with oncologist Dr. Francisco Contreras, Director of Oasis of Hope Hospital (https://www.oasisofhope.com/), who delivers a surprising message: cancer is not just about genetics—it’s about lifestyle. Can happiness, real food, and movement dramatically lower cancer risk? Why do developed countries see higher cancer rates? And what happens when conventional medicine is combined with natural therapies instead of competing with them?

This hour doesn’t offer hype—it offers perspective. If you think health is something you “deal with later,” this conversation may change that mindset entirely.

HOUR 2

Hour 2 opens with a powerful and timely conversation as Richard Battle (https://RichardBattle.com) joins John Rush to reflect on the life and legacy of Abraham Lincoln. As the nation marks Lincoln’s birthday, the discussion draws sharp parallels between Lincoln’s era and today’s divided America. Was the country actually more fractured then than it is now? And what can Lincoln’s perseverance, humility, and commitment to unity teach a modern nation struggling with identity, sovereignty, and purpose?

The hour then shifts gears as Sunny Kutcher from Young Americans Against Socialism https://yaas.org) joins the show to break down rising political unrest in Los Angeles, outsider candidates challenging the status quo, and why younger Americans are starting to disengage—or re-engage—altogether. From voter ID and election integrity to civic responsibility and constitutional citizenship, this hour asks hard questions: Why is identity verification expected everywhere except the ballot box? And what happens when citizens finally push back?

This is an hour about history, culture, and consequences—connecting America’s past to the crossroads we face right now.

HOUR 3

Hour 3 delivers a wide-ranging, no-holds-barred conversation that moves from culture and politics to markets and the future of work. John Rush is joined by Jim Pfaff of The Conservative Caucus (https://theconservativecaucus.com/), breaking down Super Bowl halftime controversies, media hypocrisy, and why conservatives must hold their own side accountable, not just the left. The discussion sharpens around the SAVE America Act, voter ID, and election integrity—asking a blunt question: can a republic survive if its elections aren’t trusted?

The hour then turns inward as John addresses Colorado politics, party loyalty, and the real cost of running unaffiliated. What happens when a candidate leaves the party structure—and who pays the political price?

The final stretch shifts to economics and innovation with Scott Garliss of Bent Pine Capital (https://www.bentpinecapital.com/). Together, they unpack surprising job numbers, inflation signals, Fed policy, and why AI may be accelerating productivity faster than policymakers realize. Is manufacturing quietly rebounding? Will AI eliminate jobs—or force businesses to reinvent? And is the Federal Reserve already behind the curve?

This hour challenges assumptions—and dares listeners to connect the dots.
