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

Brett kicks off the program by talking about what he sees as ongoing political “wins” and the aggressive use of executive power in Washington. He argues that current leadership is effectively leveraging authority to push policy goals, particularly on immigration and national security. Brett highlights a reported move by federal officials to penalize so-called sanctuary cities by restricting airport access, framing it as a tough but necessary step to enforce immigration laws. He contrasts this with criticism of Democratic leaders, portraying them as out of touch and ineffective.

We’re joined by Gary Grossman from the world of bestselling political thrillers to talk about his new novel The Midas Touch and the fascinating real-world ideas that inspired it. Grossman explains how the book blends history, mystery, and geopolitics into a modern treasure hunt centered around the missing pieces of the Rosetta Stone and a secret capable of manufacturing gold. He discusses collaborating with National Treasure creators Charles Segars and Orin Aviv to create a fast-paced summer thriller with global economic stakes.
