Rightly Dividing: Apostolic Signs, the Kingdom Message, and the Church Age (Ep. 233)
Jan 11, 2026In this episode of our Dispensational Truth series, we explore one of the most misunderstood subjects in Christianity: the difference between the Kingdom of Heaven and the Kingdom of God—and why failing to distinguish them creates massive doctrinal confusion.
We examine how Jesus and John the Baptist preached the gospel of the kingdom, calling Israel to national repentance so they could receive their promised earthly kingdom. This helps explain why the Sermon on the Mount, apostolic miracles, and kingdom commands don’t always line up with how believers live today.
This lesson also explains why mira...

Finding the Magic: Tricia Copeland on Fairies, Courage, and Indie Authorship (Ep. 231)
Jan 08, 2026In this live episode from the Asylum in Eagle Pass, I sit down with multi-genre author and podcaster Tricia Copeland to explore the magic behind storytelling, the craft of building believable worlds, and the courage it takes to bring characters to life. We talk about her path from scientist to novelist, how a personal struggle inspired her first fiction series, and why her creativity spans fantasy, dystopian, and contemporary romance. Tricia shares insights on writing strong character arcs, balancing multiple genres, and closing out her 10-book saga that culminates with To Be a Fae—the finale of the Realm Ch...
Duration: 01:03:23Flawed Heroes, Hard Truths: Lt. Col. Ken Webb on Trapped in Deception (Ep. 230)
Jan 07, 2026Broadcasting live from Eagle Pass, Texas, I sat down with retired Army Reserve Lieutenant Colonel and first-time author Ken Webb to unpack his psychological thriller, Trapped in Deception, and the very real life experiences that inspired it. We explored his journey from decades in uniform and a corporate career to starting over in Peru at 56, the sting of personal betrayal that seeded his antagonist, and how imperfect, conflicted characters make for a truer, grittier story. Ken shared how his protagonist—loosely based on himself—faces moral gray zones, leadership pressures, and a past misfire in combat, while chasing a rein...
Duration: 01:57:16Rules, Redemption, and Real Talk: Prison Realities and Creative Resilience (Ep. 229)
Jan 06, 2026Tonight’s two-hour live show brings you two powerful stories and perspectives. from the Asylum Studios in Eagle Pass, Texas.
In hour one, I sat down with Jack Straw—former police captain turned federal inmate who rebuilt his life as a brewer and creator of the YouTube channel “Fed Joints to Beer Joints.” Jack opened up about the realities of life on both sides of the justice system: why discretion and humanity matter in policing, how subjective enforcement shapes outcomes, and the harsh, highly organized realities of prison culture—far from Hollywood myths. He shared how he survived h...
Repent, For the Kingdom Is at Hand: John the Baptist, Jesus, and Two Crowns (Ep. 228)
Jan 04, 2026In this Sunday Bible Study, I broadcast live from the Asylum Studios in Eagle Pass and continue our series on the Dispensations—now 12 weeks in. After a quick update on some pesky tech gremlins, we dive into the close of the legal dispensation and move into the forerunner of the King: John the Baptist.
I trace Israel’s history from the divided kingdom and captivities through the restoration prophets to the 400 years of silence, showing how John’s call to repent stood squarely in the prophetic stream. We unpack the difference between the Kingdom of Heaven (physical, Davidi...
Crypto 2026 Playbook: Solana, Chainlink, XRP, and the Rise of Real‑World Assets (Ep. 227)
Jan 03, 2026In this New Year’s crypto edition, I welcome back our resident “crypto psychic” Marisa Lee for a fast-moving conversation that blends market insights with real‑world developments.
We dig into Solana’s momentum, why Chainlink and PYTH could pop on government data integrations, and how stablecoin adoption by banks in 2026 may boost blockchain fees and valuations—especially for networks like Algorand. Marisa lays out bold but time‑tempered price zones: Solana eyeing $700 then $1,400, Chainlink in the $50–$75 range, Algorand toward $5, Ondo Finance in the $8–$10 zone, PYTH toward $1, and a near‑term doubling setup for XRP as ETFs and clarity arrive. ...
Why Socialism Fails and Free Markets Work: Dr. Doug Cardell on Evidentiary Economics (Ep. 226)
Dec 30, 2025In our final live show of 2025, I battled a few tech gremlins and kicked things off streaming exclusively on Rumble before welcoming economist and author Dr. Doug Cardell to the studio. We dug into what socialism actually is (government ownership of the means of production), why terms like “democratic socialism” are misused, and how socialism’s central planning clashes with the chaotic nature of real economies—much like trying to forecast the weather.
Dr. Cardell explained “evidentiary economics,” arguing policy should follow outcomes, not wishful thinking, and traced how free market capitalism has driven global prosperity by expanding th...
Prophets and the Promise: From Elijah to John the Baptist and the Call to Repent (Ep. 225)
Dec 28, 2025In this Sunday Bible Study edition, I invite you into a sweeping survey of the Old Testament prophets—from Elijah and Elisha to Isaiah, Jeremiah, Ezekiel, Daniel, Hosea, Jonah, Haggai, Zechariah, and Malachi—and how their hard-edged messages of repentance, holiness, and separation apply to our times. We trace Israel’s decline, captivities under Assyria and Babylon, the 70-year judgment foretold by Jeremiah, the returns under Ezra and Nehemiah, and the prophetic panoramas of Daniel and Ezekiel that stretch across 2,500 years to the restoration of Israel and the end of the age. We also consider John the Baptist as the fi...
Duration: 01:21:14Is It Memory or Metaphor? The Science and Spirit of Past-Life Regression (Ep. 224)
Dec 23, 2025In this episode, I sit down with certified clinical hypnotherapist and medical hypnosis specialist Craig Meriwether of Sacred Mystery Hypnotherapy to explore the science and spirituality behind hypnotherapy, past-life regression, natal (in‑utero) regression, and life-between-lives work. We unpack how hypnosis actually functions as a natural shift in brainwave states—not mind control—and why healing can occur whether a regression is a literal past-life memory or a symbolic construct of the subconscious. Craig shares compelling cases, including trauma relief, pain reduction, and powerful insights that often emerge in the “healing place” of the soul realm. I also reflect on my own...
Duration: 02:05:17Losing the Crown: Kings, Vision, and the Virgin Birth (Ep. 223)
Dec 21, 2025In this Bible Study Sunday edition, I walk through Israel’s transition from judges to kings and the danger of comparing ourselves to the world. We revisit Saul—the people’s choice—and David—God’s choice—to draw out what God values most: the heart. From there, we survey key kings, the division of the kingdom, and why imitating worldly power corrodes vision and faith.
Along the way, I unpack the Jehoiakim/Jehoiachin (Coniah) curse to show a compelling, “political” proof of the virgin birth, then turn to Lamentations to reflect on how a people lose their crown when they lo...
Excise or Income: Dan Berman Explains the Tax Code They Don’t Teach You (Ep. 222)
Dec 20, 2025In this live Friday night episode from Asylum Studios in Eagle Pass, I sit down with Dan “Taxation Is Theft” Berman—author, activist, and provocateur—to unpack his decade-long battle with the IRS, why he believes most Americans misunderstand the income tax, and how Supreme Court rulings frame the income tax as an excise rather than a direct tax. Dan walks us through W-2 vs. 1099 realities, withholding strategies, and how he’s secured refunds (even of Social Security/Medicare withholdings) by challenging IRS assumptions and paperwork—without resorting to sovereign citizen claims. We also explore the Federal Reserve’s incentive stru...
Duration: 01:55:27Blues Brothers to Book Series: Jonni Jordyn’s Path + Practical Wealth with Tony Bradshaw (Ep. 221)
Dec 18, 2025Broadcasting live from the Asylum Studios in Eagle Pass, Texas, I kick off a packed show with award-winning author and artist Jonni Jordyn. We dig into her journey from performing with legendary musicians like members of Santana and opening for the Blues Brothers to becoming a novelist later in life. Joni shares how acting shaped her character-first storytelling, why she outlines (but stays flexible), and how she approaches revisions until emotion and continuity click. We explore her Lost Art of Magic five-part series nearing its finale, her Virus techno-thriller trilogy born from genetic simulation code, and themes of patriarchy...
Duration: 03:10:39The Silent Pandemic: Understanding Grief and Finding Help with Doug Lawrence (Ep. 220)
Dec 16, 2025In this heartfelt live episode from Eagle Pass, I welcome internationally certified mentor and author Doug Lawrence to unpack grief—why it’s misunderstood, how it shows up differently for everyone, and what genuine support looks like, especially during the holidays. We explore the evolution of mentoring from command-and-tell to trust-based guidance, how structured and unstructured mentoring can bolster mental health, and why asking for help isn’t weakness but wisdom. Doug shares how losing his wife after 43 years reshaped his understanding of grief, the importance of communication and boundaries around holiday invitations, and practical ways friends and workplaces can tr...
Duration: 01:40:55Judges: When Everyone Did What Was Right in Their Own Eyes (Ep. 219)
Dec 14, 2025In this Sunday Bible Study episode of The Joe Rooz Show, I guide you through a sweeping, practical overview of the Book of Judges as part of our dispensations series. We set the historical stage after Joshua’s death, explore Israel’s repeated cycle of sin, suffering, supplication, and salvation, and unpack why “every man did that which was right in his own eyes” (Judges 21:25) serves as the book’s key verse. We look closely at Gideon, Jephthah, and Samson—their faith, failures, and how God’s mercy shines through—while drawing everyday applications on separation, compromise, parenting, and trusting God thr...
Duration: 01:34:42Prognostications of a Crypto Psychic: 2026, ETFs, and the Patience Play (Ep. 218)
Dec 13, 2025In this Saturday crypto psychic edition, I welcome back our resident crypto psychic, Marisa Lee, for a candid, high-energy catch‑up on the roller‑coaster crypto markets and her 2026 predictions. We dig into why large-cap coins like Bitcoin, Ethereum, XRP, Chainlink, and Solana could move first on ETF flows and bank recommendations, why some altcoins (including Algorand) may lag short term due to portfolio rotation, and why patience and accumulation still matter. Marisa lays out a near-term window—late December into January/February—for meaningful market improvement, plus a broader 2026 outlook featuring more altcoin ETFs, potential tax changes, and macro sh...

Dec 13, 2025In this Friday night episode of The Joe Rooz Show, I welcome homesteader, theologian, and author David Libby for a deeply encouraging, Scripture-saturated conversation on suffering, God’s sovereignty, apologetics, and authentic Christian living. From his family’s years-long battle with Lyme disease to the theological foundations that sustained him, David shares how head knowledge becomes heart-level faith through trials. We dig into why suffering exists, how God refines believers through hardship, the harmony of divine sovereignty and human responsibility, and what it means to stay watchful and courageous in a complacent church age. We also talk homesteading life in r...
Duration: 01:56:23What the Founders Would Say Today: Civics, Compromise, and Culture (Ep. 216)
Dec 11, 2025In this episode, I pull back the curtain on a hectic week at the Asylum Studios in Eagle Pass and kick off a thoughtful conversation with political economist and author Werner Neff. Despite last‑minute inspection chaos at my day job and some live-show tech gremlins, Werner and I dive deep into civic culture, democratic norms, and why polarization is eroding trust in America. Drawing on his Swiss background and his book, “What Would the Founding Fathers Tell Us Today?”, Werner explores how republics function best when citizens practice compromise, respect constitutional limits, and engage in real debate rather than p...
Duration: 01:40:19Dogs Chase Cars and Reporters Chase Truth: A Veteran Journalist Reflects (Ep. 215)
Dec 09, 2025Broadcasting from Eagle Pass, Texas, I kick off the week with returning guest and veteran journalist Patrick Sangimino to explore how American journalism changed over the last four decades—from the heyday of local newspapers to today’s social-media-driven news cycle. We talk trust, bias, and the pivotal role of community reporting in holding local officials accountable, plus how national narratives, COVID coverage, polling, and predictive markets have warped public perception. Patrick shares stories from his 40-year career, why Watergate inspired a generation, how unnamed sources erode credibility, and why athletes and politicians bypass the press via direct-to-fan platforms. We a...
Duration: 01:46:21House of Blood: A Dispensational Tour of the Tabernacle (Ep. 214)
Dec 07, 2025In this Sunday Bible study, I walk through the Tabernacle from a dispensational perspective, showing how its structure and rituals point directly to Jesus Christ. We explore Hebrews 9–10 and Exodus 29 to connect the brazen altar, laver, table of showbread, golden candlesticks, altar of incense, veil, and Holy of Holies with the work of Christ—our High Priest who entered once with His own blood for eternal redemption. I break down the Ark of the Covenant, the mercy seat, cherubim, and the contents of the ark, and survey the rich symbolism of the tabernacle’s materials (gold, silver, brass, colors, linens...

Dec 06, 2025In this packed Friday night show, I kicked things off from Asylum Studios in Eagle Pass, Texas and welcomed two compelling guests. First up was Robert Rosen, author of Nowhere Man: The Final Days of John Lennon. We dug into the origins of his book, his access to Lennon’s diaries, and how he blended investigation with restrained imagination—especially around Lennon’s vivid dream practices, occult interests, yoga and numerology, and his surprisingly intense fixation on Paul McCartney. Robert also shared how a brief born-again phase drew unexpected attention from Christian media and why he believes Nowhere Man captur...

Dec 04, 2025Tonight I hosted a lively, free‑wheeling two-hour show from Eagle Pass, Texas. In hour one, trial lawyer-turned-novelist Russell Little joined me to talk life, writing, bourbon, cigars, and ultimately his hurricane-drenched thriller, Murder by Storm. We swapped stories about Houston, West Texas, old fashioned's (Maker’s Mark vs. 1792), dogs, pasta sauce, and how real hurricanes reshape people and crime scenes—then dug into how Russell builds characters from unforgettable real-life personalities, why Harvey was the perfect backdrop for a murder mystery, and the challenge of writing a razor-sharp antagonist named Marilyn. We also touched on his children’s books in...
Duration: 02:18:07From Pop-Ins to PopCon: Eagle Pass’ Fan Fest Preview Revealed (Ep. 211)
Dec 02, 2025Broadcasting from Eagle Pass, I kicked off an unplanned Monday show with a candid mood check, some playful banter about “pop-ins,” and a quick riff on why we’ve recently shifted away from heavy politics toward more author and creator interviews. Then we dove into a lively conversation with guest Dannie Mendoza, president of Eagle Pass PopCon. Danny announced a special mini Eagle Pass PopCon event slated for January 31 at the Eagle Pass Mall (free admission, open-to-close), featuring professional cosplayers, a “mini” celebrity guest (wrestler or voice actor), vendors, family activities, and a three-tier costume contest (kids, teens, adults) judged by...
Duration: 01:36:14A Kingdom of Priests: Passover’s Aftermath and the Hope of Christ’s Reign (Ep. 210)
Nov 30, 2025In this Bible Study Sunday, I reflect on the spirit of Thanksgiving, genuine friendship, and gratitude for our growing community. From there, we continue our multi-week series on dispensations, revisiting last week’s Passover study and moving into a doctrinal exploration of kingdoms, crowns, and the law—why the Bible devotes so much space to the rise and fall of governments, how Moses served as a king in Jeshurun, and how Israel was called to be a kingdom of priests. We trace the “path of the crowns” from Adam to Noah to Abraham to Moses, contrast the kingdom of heaven an...

Nov 27, 2025In this Thanksgiving-eve episode, I broadcast live from Eagle Pass and welcome Dr. Don Weber—global communication strategist, former human intelligence operative, and executive coach—for a candid, wide-ranging conversation on trust, body language myths, mindful leadership, and how to genuinely connect when speaking. Don shares gripping insights from years operating under multiple identities across 90+ countries, the psychological toll and discipline required, and the path that led him from high-stakes fieldwork to coaching leaders on strategic empathy and presence. We also dig into public speaking that persuades versus merely performs, why motives matter more than micro-gestures, and how mindfulness and...
Duration: 01:36:40Dispensation of the Law Begins: Passover Types, Plagues, and a Call to Stand Firm (Ep. 208)
Nov 24, 2025In this Bible Study Sunday, I broadcast from Eagle Pass and continue our series on Dispensations, moving from the patriarchs into the Dispensation of the Law. I set the stage with Israel’s 400 years in Egyptian bondage and introduce the Passover as both a historic event and a powerful type pointing to Christ, our Passover.
We walk through the ten plagues as judgments on Egypt’s gods, then focus on Pharaoh’s four compromises—worship in the land, don’t go far, leave the family, and leave your possessions—and how these mirror the enemy’s tactics to keep believ...
From Market Movers to Mythic Shadows: Elections, Lawsuits, and Adult Paranormal Worlds (Ep. 207)
Nov 20, 2025Tonight I broadcast live from the Asylum Studios in Eagle Pass, Texas for a two-guest show that dug deep into the real-world impact of prediction markets and the grit of adult paranormal fantasy.
In hour one, I sat down with Christopher Gerlacher of Prediction News to unpack how platforms like Kalshi and Polymarket translate breaking legal decisions, debates, and early vote trends into market odds in real time. We explored why markets can be a sharper “nowcast” than polls, how the CFTC and states are colliding over the definition of “gaming,” the rise of sports contracts, and why resp...
Art, Law, and Pop Culture: Julian Raven Updates and Eagle Pass Pop-con Preview (Ep. 206)
Nov 18, 2025On tonight’s show from the Asylum Studios in Eagle Pass, I kicked off a packed program with returning guest and friend of the show, artist and author Julian Raven. Julian delivered a major update on his ongoing legal battles with the Smithsonian Institution, arguing the Smithsonian is a private charitable trust—"an independent entity"—and not a federal government agency, a distinction he says was underscored by recent leadership turmoil and public statements by the Board of Regents. He laid out his motions now before the D.C. District Court to vacate a 2018 ruling and align the record with l...
Duration: 02:04:09Abraham, The Crown, and the Covenant: Tracing the Promise Through the Patriarchs (Ep. 205)
Nov 16, 2025In this Bible Study Sunday, I walk through the fifth week of our Dispensations series, focusing on the Patriarchal (Promise) dispensation with Abraham at the center. We trace the “crowns” of the Kingdom of God and the Kingdom of Heaven, explore Abraham’s unconditional covenant of grace, and unpack why the land promise—from the River of Egypt to the Euphrates—has been history’s most contested ground. I also contrast Premillennial, Postmillennial, and Amillennial positions, explain how those views shape modern theology and geopolitics, and connect Abraham’s faith to New Testament salvation—clarifying imputed righteousness (Genesis 15/Romans 4) versus justifica...

Nov 15, 2025In this candid Saturday edition, I sit down with D Paul Fleming—disabled Navy veteran, Native American holy man, and spiritual warrior—to explore the intersections of faith, trauma, healing, and the unseen world. D Paul shares gripping stories from his life and work: surviving harrowing military experiences, confronting darkness during spiritual warfare, and the moment he relinquished and then reclaimed divine protection. We unpack how Native American spirituality and Christian faith can walk hand-in-glove, what it means to be a “hollow bone,” and practical ways to discern spirit versus imagination, raise your spiritual vibration, and reclaim balance across the phys...

Nov 13, 2025In this episode, I sit down with Sean Blackwell, author of Bipolar Awakenings: The Quest to Heal Bipolar Disorder, for a deep dive into the intersection of bipolar disorder, spiritual emergence, and nonordinary states of consciousness. We explore Sean’s personal awakening in the 1990s, his early encounters with “spiritual emergency,” and how that experience propelled him into decades of work using transpersonal psychology, holotropic-style breathwork, and what he calls surrogate breathwork to support healing. Sean shares striking stories—from supporting family members through medication-free psychotic breaks to facilitating powerful, somatic releases—while emphasizing safety, humility, and collaboration with psychiatry...
Duration: 01:08:18From Diagnosis to Determination: Mark Burnett’s Journey to Restore Brain Health (Ep. 202)
Nov 11, 2025Tonight I sat down with Mark Burnett—a database programmer turned medical innovator—who shared his remarkable journey through Parkinson’s and Alzheimer’s, and the unconventional path that helped him regain balance, memory, and daily function. Mark traced his diagnoses back to early-life exposure at Camp Lejeune, then walked us through the research that led him to a little-known plant seed and a no-heat milling process he developed to preserve its active compounds. He described improvements he and other users have experienced, his focus on the brain’s glymphatic “cleanup” system, and why he believes consistent daily use matters, whether for ac...

Nov 09, 2025In this Bible Study Sunday from Eagle Pass, I share a heartfelt dedication to my late mom before diving into our ongoing survey of dispensational truth—tracing Scripture’s timeline from Genesis through Revelation. We review creation, the fall, and Adam’s lost crowns, then focus on the post-flood “dispensation of human government,” exploring Noah’s covenant, capital punishment, and the consequences at Babel. I walk through how Scripture frames government, why mankind repeats the same mistakes, and how the themes of crowns, kingdoms, and spiritual vs. physical rule run from Adam to the Second Adam, Jesus Christ. We also examine...

Nov 04, 2025In this episode, I welcome speculative fiction author Annmarie SanSevero to the show for a lively, wide-ranging conversation that spans New York roots, Southern culture shocks, and the creative spark behind her new short story collection, The Butterfly Stroke and Other Stories. We dig into how hope, courage, and resilience power her science fiction and fantasy—from a former Olympian regaining movement through a brain implant to a detective aided by a wisecracking supernatural sidekick—while exploring the human consequences of fast-moving tech like neural interfaces. Anne Marie shares her journey from single mom squeezing in 15 minutes of writing a da...

Nov 02, 2025Broadcasting from Eagle Pass, I kick off Bible Study Sunday a little under the weather but fired up to continue our dispensations series. After recapping our recent milestone pace and yesterday’s marathon broadcasting day, I dive into week three: the Dispensation of Conscience. We revisit the fall of Adam, the loss of his crowns, and how, absent a written law, God inscribed the law of conscience on the human heart. I walk through Romans 2 and Acts 17 to show how conscience guided right and wrong in the “times of ignorance,” and how God still made Himself known to seekers like C...

Nov 01, 2025In this episode I kick off our afternoon crypto hour with resident crypto psychic Marisa Lee after wrapping a marathon earlier show. We dive into the current lull in the market, the government shutdown overhang, and why November still looks promising historically and intuitively. Marissa flags potential near-term volatility tied to SNAP funding and broader unrest, but remains confident the shutdown ends this month and a bigger move is brewing. We talk portfolio mindset—patience over panic—and specific projects she’s watching: DIA as a compelling oracle play with 2026 upside potential, BitTensor (TAO) as a top AI crypto stando...

Nov 01, 2025In this Halloween live episode from Eagle Pass, I kick things off with some seasonal memories and safety reminders before settling into a conversation with author and historian Scott Badler about his new book, Becoming JFK: John F. Kennedy’s Early Path to Leadership. We dig into the lesser-known, formative years of JFK—from his health struggles and family dynamics with his brother Joe Jr., to the “Muckers” episode at Choate, his pre–World War II travels through Europe, and the harrowing PT-109 incident. Scott shares why this 11-year span shaped Kennedy’s persistence, worldview, and leadership style, and how fresh ar...

Oct 30, 2025In this episode, I kick things off with some midweek mayhem, then dive into a riveting two-guest lineup exploring human potential and world-shaping tech. First up is Tom Matte, whose life-changing recovery sparked a phenomenon he calls Upsight Vision—the ability to see and interact with holographic-like imagery that reveals subconscious signals and symbolic patterns. We discuss how he uses this capacity in 1:1 sessions to help people uncover blocks, navigate decisions, and interpret recurring archetypes—plus the forthcoming academic paper from the Institute of Noetic Sciences analyzing his EEG data. Tom’s journey from crisis to consulting is a powerf...

Ruby shares how to spot internal and external triggers, set boundaries that stick, and model healthier tech use for our families—all without demonizing the phone as a...
Duration: 02:07:16Dispensations and the Fall: From Eden’s Crowns to the Tree of Life (Ep. 192)
Oct 26, 2025In this Bible Study Sunday, we continue our series on dispensational truth. We review last week’s foundation—what “dispensation” means biblically—and move into the Edenic dispensation (innocence), tracing creation, Lucifer’s fall, the recreation in Genesis 1, and Adam’s role as king with both spiritual and physical crowns. We explore how man was made in God’s image, the tri-part nature of man (body, soul, spirit), what changed at the fall, and why apparent “contradictions” reconcile when we rightly divide Scripture. I walk through the tree of life across Genesis and Revelation, obedience as the condition for life in Eden, and ho...
Duration: 01:25:47Government Gridlock, ACA Clash, and the DEFUND Act Explained (Ep. 191)
Oct 25, 2025Live from Eagle Pass, I kicked off a Friday night show with some housekeeping and local updates, then dove straight into the ongoing federal government shutdown—the “Schumer Shutdown,” what’s actually closed versus essential, and the real-world impacts on paychecks, SNAP/WIC, parks, housing, research, and travel. I walked through the political standoff over ACA subsidies, who’s refusing to budge, fresh polling on blame and public sentiment, and why the media narrative isn’t sticking like it used to. I also hit listener questions and highlighted our recent local guests, plus a heads-up on Sunday’s Bible study series.<...

Oct 23, 2025In this episode, I sit down with Paco Ramirez, library assistant at the Eagle Pass Public Library, to spotlight how our local library is reinventing itself as a true community hub.
