Tune in here to this Tuesday's edition of the Brett Winterble Show! 

Brett kicks off the program by talking about a high-stakes meeting between President Donald Trump and the Canadian Prime Minister, and the broader implications of ongoing tariff negotiations. He describes Trump’s performance as a “masterclass,” claiming the former president dominated the discussion and made clear the U.S. holds the upper hand in global trade. Brett mocks the Canadian leader, calling him the “Carney Barker,” and criticizes those who are confused or fearful about tariffs. He emphasizes that tariffs are here to stay and are necessary to protect American industries.

We're joined by Father Bill Nicholas to talk about the upcoming Papal Conclave and the sacred process of selecting the next Pope. As cardinals prepare to gather in the Sistine Chapel, Father Bill explains the traditions, symbolism, and spiritual weight behind this centuries-old ritual. He describes how the cardinals take an oath of secrecy, vote in silence, and await the appearance of white smoke signaling a new Pope. Father Bill also reflects on the legacy of Pope Francis, particularly his efforts to diversify the College of Cardinals by increasing representation from Asia and the Pacific. Emphasizing that this is a process guided by the Holy Spirit—not politics—he offers insight into how the Church seeks divine direction in choosing a new Holy Father. The conversation closes with a blessing for listeners and a reminder of the Church’s enduring role and presence in the world.


Beth Troutman from Good Morning BT is also here for this Tuesday's episode of Crossing the Streams. Brett and Beth talk about former President Donald Trump’s meeting with Canadian Prime Minister Carney and the upcoming Real ID travel deadline. They reflect on Trump’s dominating presence during the press conference, noting how Carney could barely get a few words in as Trump took control of the conversation with his signature mix of bravado, unpredictability, and backhanded compliments. They explore whether Trump was intentionally throwing Carney off balance as a negotiation tactic or simply enjoying the moment. Beth also shares what she and Bo have coming up Wednesday on Good Morning BT
