  • The Husband Accused Of Poisoning His Wife To End Her Pregnancy

    An exclusive interview with Catherine Herring, the wife who accused her husband of poisoning her, to end her pregnancy.

    Catherine Herring claims her whole life changed after she told her husband that she was pregnant with their 3rd child. Now, at the time of the pregnancy announcement, Catherine says she and her husband were separated, but she believed they were actively working to repair their marriage. But in the coming weeks after that announcement, Catherine claims she discovered her husband secretly poisoning her drinks, on multiple occasions with an abortion inducing medication in a sole attempt to end their un-born baby’s life. In an exclusive interview, Dr. Phil sits down with Catherine Herring to listen to the alleged details behind her husband’s ultimate betrayal.

  • Tom Homan: The Truth They're Not Telling You

    In part two of his conversation with Dr. Phil, Tom Homan goes deeper. He says flat out, unequivocal, that he believes sleeper cells from the border crossing are already inside this country and the intelligence community knows it. He talks about the 145,000 children the Biden administration lost track of and what his team has found. And he takes on the media directly, after personally visiting the Dilley family detention center in Texas and seeing something very different from what's been reported. Clean kitchens. Children laughing in classrooms. Doctors who treat every child like their own. Tom Homan says it was a far cry from what he'd been reading for two months. Dr. Phil gives him the space to tell the story the headlines aren't telling, and asks the questions that still need answering.

  • Tom Homan: The Border Czar Returns

    Tom Homan has spent more than 40 years in law enforcement.He didn't have to come back. But he did because he believes in the mission and the people carrying it out. When Dr. Phil sat down with him in January, a major story was just breaking. A lot has happened since. Homan was dispatched toMinneapolis to take control of a difficult situation, worked directly with local officials to bring things to a close, and has spent the months since navigating one of the most intense periods in the history of border enforcement. Through all of it, he has remained focused on one thing... the safety of the American people and the men and women putting their lives on the line every day to protect it. Dr. Phil gives him the space to speak for himself, talk about what he's learned, and share why,  through all the noise,  he believes the work matters.

  • Liberal media hits all-time low following murder of college student

    Sheridan Gorman didn’t deserve to die. Her story deserves to be told. Police say the suspect, Jose Medina, opened fire without warning on the Chicago lakefront. And yet — this story didn’t dominate headlines.It didn’t lead the news cycle. In many places, it barely showed up at all. Why? Because those ICE raids — whether people agree with them or not — were meant to prevent exactly this kind of outcome.

  • 'Live Like Braun’ a Mother’s Fight for Justice

    Braun Levi was an 18-year-old senior and standout tennis player at Loyola High School in California with a bright future ahead, including a planned college tennis career. On May 4, 2025, while walking with a friend in Manhattan Beach, he was struck and killed by a vehicle driven by a woman allegedly under the influence of alcohol and driving on a suspended license. The impact of his death rippled through his school, family, and community, sparking grief and calls for change. His parents later established the Live Like Braun Foundation to honor his legacy and raise awareness about the dangers of impaired driving.

    In early 2026, the woman accused in the crash pled not guilty to murder and other felony counts, with prosecutors alleging her blood-alcohol level was more than twice the legal limit at the time of the collision. Braun’s story is one of a promising young life cut tragically short, and of a family channeling grief into advocacy and a broader push to prevent similar losses.

  • The Life and Legacy of Braun Levi

    An intimate, emotional interview withBraun Levi’s mother and his close friends, exploring who Braun was beyond the headlines...his personality, dreams, friendships, and the life he was building before it was suddenly cut short. The conversation traces the day everything changed, the shock and grief that followed, and how a family navigates unimaginable loss while choosing purpose over despair. Through her voice, viewers gain insight into the ripple effects of tragedy on siblings, parents, and community, as well as the strength it takes to transform pain into advocacy, awareness, and action. The interview also highlights her mission to preserve Braun’s legacy, promote responsible decision-making, and ensure that his story becomes a catalyst for change rather than just another statistic. https://livelikebraunfoundation.org/

  • From Campus Violence to City Hall Victory

    In the wake of a violent antisemitic attack on campus, DePaul student Michael Kaminsky and University of Chicago student Jake Rymer refused to stay silent. What began as fear and frustration over rising campus hostility after October 7 became a grassroots legislative movement. With no political power or institutional backing, the two students organized, educated, and lobbied city leaders -culminating in a unanimous 50–0 City Council vote making Chicago the largest American city to codify the IHRA Working Definition of Antisemitism into municipal law. As New York City rescinds its adoption of the same definition, this episode examines courage, institutional failure, bipartisan action, and what happens when the youngest voices in the room redraw the moral line against hate.

  • A Passover Lesson: The Secret to Jewish Survival

    As Mark Twain once said: “What is the secret of their immortality?” For thousands of years, the Jewish people have endured—exile, persecution, violence. Just in time for Passover, I sit down with Rabbi Joshua Franklin to learn the secrets to Jewish survival.

    These aren’t just Jewish ideas. They’re principles anyone can use—Jews, non-Jews, believers and non-believers alike. It’s a roadmap for getting through adversity—right now.

  • Zohran Mamdani’s Plan to Punish the Rich Will Bleed New York City

    What happens when you “tax the rich”… and the rich leave? In this episode of The Real Story, we break down Zohran Mamdani’s plan to raise taxes — and why the outcome may be the opposite of what people expect.

    Here’s the reality: New York has already lost more than $500 billion in income. Over 125,000 residents have moved to Florida, taking billions with them. And the top 1% still pays over 40% of all income taxes. So what happens if more of them leave? You don’t just lose the rich. You lose the revenue. You lose the jobs. You lose the businesses that support entire communities. That’s not theory. That’s already happening. This isn’t about politics. It’s about outcomes. Because when you drive out the people funding your economy—you don’t redistribute wealth…you reduce it. For everyone.
