Comedian, former cab driver, and current Host of FOX News Saturday Night and radio program FOX Across America, Jimmy Failla joins Bridget for a hilarious conversation about their respective working class backgrounds, why driving a cab is the original social media, how Trump is the only way 15 year old kids can be counter-culture today, why a lot of people on the Left are intellectually lazy, and why "likes" are the death of everything. They discuss being new enough to media that they genuinely care, how everybody is a prisoner of the moment, the importance of comedy, the lack of self-awareness in society, the shamelessness of today's culture, how most late night shows have abandoned their calling to entertain the masses, how Trump will never quietly go away in the night, why family privilege is so valuable, and why fun conquers all. Check out Jimmy's new book, Cancel Culture Dictionary .

4-Term Congresswoman, U.S. Army veteran, and 2020 presidential candidate Tulsi Gabbard sits down with Bridget to talk about her new book, For Love of Country: Leave The Democrat Party Behind. She and Bridget discuss making people on both sides angry, why people feel threatened when someone tells the truth, being grounded in God, when Democrats stopped talking about God, being open to shifting your opinion as you learn more, witnessing an extreme radicalization of the Democratic party, and who actually holds the power in D.C. They also cover the flaws in our voting system, the possibility for a 3rd party candidate in this election, why she wants to do away with the Department of Education, focusing on the fundamentals of who we are as a country, how nihilism is a one way train that leads to nowhere, being grateful for the opportunities to serve, why we should be willing to engage with people with different backgrounds and different mindsets, and why she still feels hopeful because the real power in this country lies in the hands of the people.

Comedian Arielle Isaac Norman returns to the show and she and Bridget have a frank conversation about gender, gender dynamics, gender politics, and balancing female rights with trans rights. They cover refusing to dogmatically fall in line with the orthodoxy of whatever the LGBTQ community is saying, when the narrative really started shifting from gender dysphoria to a denial of biologic reality, how the trans community was essentially written a blank check by all the good liberals and what they did with it, no longer being able to have open discussions about difficult topics, the importance of protecting women and female spaces, the importance of being kind and respectful but still being able to ask questions, and when the trans movement really started to feel like a cult. They also discuss the oppression hierarchy, the realities of taking hormones, the Austin comedy scene, getting in touch with their emotions, and why it’s so important for people to be honest with their opinions about gender at this point. Don't miss Arielle's new comedy special Ellen DeGenderless premiering April 4th on YouTube.

Coleman Hughes sits down with Bridget to discuss his latest book, The End of Race Politics: Arguments for a Colorblind America. They talk about why people don't want to hear that the world isn’t as racist as they think it is, how racism sells very well as a news item, the realities behind disparities between races, what Coleman terms "neo racism," and the radical belief that black people are neither better nor worse than any other race. They cover why we should not racialize basic human concepts, the most surprising thing he learned while writing the book, instances of actual racism that he's seeing in society, why incremental progress should not be discounted, comforting falsehoods which help no one that come out of neo racism, the human phenomenon of slavery, why America is not unique, the debate about Civil War statues, the 1619 project, and transcending racial identity for a common passion.

Comedian Jeff Leach sits down with Bridget for a talk about the entertainment industry, comedy, money and therapeutic mushrooms. They discuss the death of the ego, how the entertainment industry preys on ego, desperation, self-interest, and a desire for money, the definition of an icon, charting your own path, doing something new, not making decisions purely based on financial reasons, and how all the people who are trying to divide us are rich. The amount of control the government exerts on our lives, aliens, climate change, raising kids, accepting your lack of control, thinking about money the way rich people think about money, the rent or buy debate, and having a sense of purpose and service.
