Brett kicks off the program by talking about the Biden administration’s handling of the U.S. southern border and the 2020 census. He claims the border was deliberately “thrown open” during COVID to inflate census numbers by including millions of illegal immigrants. According to Brett, this strategy was designed to give Democrats an unfair political advantage by increasing congressional representation, electoral votes, and federal funding in blue states.

We're joined by Michael Whatley from North Carolina to talk about his U.S. Senate candidacy and the key issues driving his campaign Whatley emphasized the need for strong conservative leadership, economic growth, and national security. He highlighted trade policies to support farmers and manufacturers, and praised the military presence in North Carolina, calling for continued support for service members. Whatley also addressed concerns over Democratic leadership, criticizing policies under Governor Roy Cooper and calling the current Democratic Party “radical.” He expressed strong support for former President Trump’s efforts to end the war in Ukraine, framing Trump as a leader committed to peace through strength. Whatley committed to visiting all 100 counties in the state, vowing to be a senator who listens and fights for North Carolina values.

Brett kicks off the program with Pete Kaliner for this edition of The Hangover as they engage in a wide-ranging and thought-provoking conversation on current political dynamics, leadership, and foreign policy. Broadcasting from Truist Field, Brett reflects on the state of the country while previewing the upcoming Memphis Redbirds game and postgame concert. The discussion takes a serious turn as Brett and Pete explore the challenges of confronting authoritarian leaders like Vladimir Putin and examine the credibility of American leadership on the world stage.

Later, Brett delivered a powerful monologue that cut through decades of foreign policy missteps with surgical precision. Reflecting on the legacy of U.S. diplomacy post-Cold War, Brett examined the broken promises made to Russia—specifically the verbal assurances that NATO would not expand eastward—and how those disregarded words helped lay the groundwork for today’s conflicts. He traced the path from James Baker’s fateful statement to the rise of NATO, the 2014 Crimea annexation, and the 2022 invasion of Ukraine. Through pointed references to key players like Victoria Nuland, Joe Biden, and Barack Obama, Brett painted a sobering picture of arrogance masquerading as diplomacy. He emphasized that it’s the ordinary people—not elites—who suffer when global powers play geopolitical chess.

Ending with a firm call for humility in leadership and real efforts toward peace, Brett reminded listeners that principle without reflection becomes empire. In his words: “Broken promises breed broken nations.”

Brett kicks off the program by talking about President Trump’s upcoming meeting with Vladimir Putin and the media’s reaction to it. He criticizes outlets like CNN and MSNBC for allegedly rooting against Trump, arguing that they don’t want to see him succeed on the world stage. Brett then pivots to a broader critique of the Democratic Party, suggesting that many on the left are working against American interests and would abandon the country if given the chance.

He calls out rising crime in Washington, D.C., highlighting a quote from Senator Markwayne Mullin, who says he doesn’t wear a seatbelt in the city due to the high risk of carjackings. Brett also criticizes D.C. Mayor Muriel Bowser for vacationing in Cape Cod while the city faces violence. He argues that Democratic leaders, including Biden and Harris, have abandoned the working class they claim to support.

Later, Brett turns his attention to the surge in urban violence, particularly youth violence, and asks a pressing question: what are we going to do about it? He lays out a grim picture of how societal, cultural, and policy failures have created a landscape where safety is no longer guaranteed, especially for vulnerable communities. Brett argues that deterrence has collapsed, accountability has diminished, and moral guidance is lacking. He cites disturbing statistics, such as a 14-fold increase in the lethality of youth violence since 1999, and highlights how neighborhoods have devolved into “zones of despair.

Brett talks about the deepening crisis of youth violence in America’s cities and the cultural decay he believes has contributed to it. He emphasizes that safety is not a luxury but a basic duty of any functioning society. Brett highlights how social media, the erosion of community institutions, and lenient juvenile justice policies have led to a generation growing up without moral guidance or accountability. He cites alarming statistics, including a 14-fold increase in the lethality of youth violence and high homicide rates among young men in the Americas.

Brett criticizes the political left for what he sees as a dismissive attitude toward family, responsibility, and consequences. He also discusses emerging ideas like building supermax facilities in every state to house violent youth offenders long-term, framing them as “street terrorists.” Brett calls the situation a moral and civic emergency, urging serious action before the violence becomes completely normalized.

Brett kicks off the program by talking about Donald Trump’s fiery critique of Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell and a wild budget overrun on the Fed’s renovation project. Trump, according to Brett, roasted Powell for allegedly trying to install a basement in the building near the Potomac River—a move Trump mocked as impractical and absurd due to flood risk. Brett highlights Trump's background as a builder, contrasting him with figures like Gavin Newsom, and praises his no-nonsense approach.

We’re joined by Bruce LeVell from Atlanta to talk about the progress of the Trump administration’s first 200 days and the wide-ranging impact of the "big beautiful bill." A former Trump advisor and small business owner, LeVell emphasized the administration’s push to restore safety and security across American cities—starting with Washington, D.C.—as a foundation for economic development. He praised the return of tax cuts, lower FICA rates, and pro-growth policies that are benefiting small businesses and boosting prosperity in cities like Charlotte and Atlanta.
