    Leading Candidate Keith Gross on Beating the Establishment in FL-2 Election

    In his powerful second appearance on The Dave Carter Show, Panama City native and leading Republican candidate Keith Gross joins Dave for a no-holds-barred conversation about his bid to represent Florida’s 2nd Congressional District. A self-made businessman, attorney, and U.S. Army National Guard veteran, Keith is funding his own campaign and has boldly pledged to donate his entire congressional salary to local private charities if elected. This move severs the financial puppet strings that control so many in Washington and at home, ensuring he answers only to the people of the Florida Panhandle—not special interests in D.C. or the local good ol’ boys network.  Keith shares his common-sense America First vision on the issues that matter most: securing the border and enforcing immigration laws, restoring American energy independence, fighting inflation and skyrocketing costs, reducing crime, and putting working families first. As a proven job creator who rose from a single-parent home through grit and entrepreneurship, he stands with the 80% of voters who are tired of politics as usual. With the August 18, 2026 primary approaching and strong polling numbers against a crowded field, this episode dives deep into why Keith represents a genuine threat to the old order.  Plus, don’t miss the hilarious comedy commercial for The American Suppress Card — the ultimate tool for silencing common sense! Whether you’re in Florida’s Panhandle or anywhere fed up with career politicians, this episode delivers straight talk, laughs, and real solutions from a candidate who has lived the American Dream and is ready to fight for yours.

    Common Sense vs. Special Interests- Brian Rust’s Plan to Fix Jobs, Workforce & Glacial Government

    In this powerful episode of the Dave Carter Show, Dave sits down with Bay County Commissioner candidate Brian Rust to hear his common-sense vision for the county’s future. He details practical strategies for job creation and workforce development that put Bay County families first, while exposing the bureaucratic red tape that has slowed infrastructure projects to a glacial pace. Brian makes a compelling case for aggressive government reform designed to cut delays, reduce costs, and deliver results for taxpayers instead of special interests.  As a candidate who refuses to be bought, Brian is facing an all-too-familiar reality in local politics: monied elites, entrenched special interests, and county kingmakers are working behind the scenes to starve his campaign of resources. Unable to defeat his ideas in open debate, they’ve chosen financial suppression instead. Brian explains why this fight matters far beyond Bay County — because voters everywhere deserve to hear what genuine independence sounds like in today’s highly charged political environment. Whether you live in Bay County or simply want to see what principled, voter-first leadership looks like, this episode delivers a refreshing dose of straight talk and actionable solutions. Tune in to hear why Brian Rust believes common sense still has a place in government — and why the establishment is so determined to silence it.

    Unbuyable Conservative- Keith Gross Putting Voters First in Florida’s 2nd District

    In this hard-hitting episode of The Dave Carter Show, I sit down with Panama City native and successful businessman Keith Gross, who is running for Congress in Florida’s 2nd Congressional District. Keith grew up in a single-parent home in the Panhandle, put himself through school through sheer grit, and built a multiple highly successful businesses as an entrepreneur who creates real jobs right here at home. What sets Keith apart from the typical Washington crowd is simple and refreshing: he’s self-funding his campaign and has pledged to donate his entire congressional salary to charity. With the financial puppet strings cut, he cannot be bought by special interests or the donor class. As I told him on the show—it’s about bloody time someone in office actually puts the interests of the voters over the whims of monied elites. Keith’s platform is straightforward and desperately needed: Cut wasteful spending, fight inflation head-on, restore affordability for working families, and ensure government sticks to its essential role—protecting the lives, liberty, and freedoms of American citizens instead of subjecting them to the arbitrary rule of micromanaging bureaucrats in Washington, D.C. This is a conversation with a true outsider who understands the American Dream because he has lived it, and who refuses to sell out the people of the Florida Panhandle or this country.

If you’re tired of politicians who talk a big game but answer to donors instead of voters, this episode is for you.

    Brian Rust- "Knock It Off!" Host Steps Up – Running for Bay County Commissioner

    This episode of The Dave Carter Show features an in-depth, no-holds-barred conversation with my good friend and fellow talk radio veteran Brian Rust, the longtime host of The Brian Rust Show who's now stepping boldly into the political arena as a candidate for Bay County Commissioner, District 4. Brian isn't your typical politician—he's a reluctant candidate who decided to run not for personal gain or power, but because he believes he can actually make a real difference for the people of Bay County. As he puts it so bluntly (in true Brian fashion), it's time to say "Knock it off!" to the endless cycle of business as usual, donor-driven decisions, and government that moves at a snail's pace while life races ahead. This episode dives straight into why a successful conservative broadcaster with over three decades on the air is putting his money where his mouth is and running for office—to serve the folks who've had enough of excuses and delays. We cover Brian's practical, common-sense platform head-on: building a top-tier workforce through targeted training programs that attract quality companies to Bay County and create good-paying jobs right here at home; overhauling infrastructure so projects finally get done on time and on budget—no more triple-the-deadline disasters wasting taxpayer dollars; championing small businesses so they can thrive and grow without drowning in red tape; and revitalizing tourism with a firm commitment to making Spring Break safe again for families, visitors, and locals alike. Brian's vision is clear: government must keep pace with real life in Bay County, from the beaches to the northern borders, making it the best place in America to call home. If you're tired of polished promises and ready for flat-footed truth from someone who's spent years calling out nonsense on the radio, this episode is a must-listen.Catch the full interview now on davecartershow.com, Spotify, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your shows.
