    America's Abortion Crisis Is Worse Than It’s Ever Been

    Overturning Roe v. Wade was supposed to be the victory that changed everything. But four years later, Seth Gruber argues America is facing an even deeper abortion crisis — and the very people who spent decades fighting for the unborn have lost their urgency. So how did a movement that achieved one of its biggest political victories end up in this position? Seth says the answer isn't in Washington alone. Decades ago, ordinary Christians were getting arrested, risking their livelihoods, and forcing politicians to take notice. Today, he believes that same courage is disappearing. Through his new book and film, The Last Stand, Gruber uncovers forgotten stories of resistance, including the young Christians who defied Hitler, and asks whether Americans still have the conviction to fight for what they believe. KEY TOPICS: Why Seth Gruber believes America's abortion crisis has worsened since Roe v. Wade was overturnedThe rise of abortion pills and why overturning Roe wasn't enoughWhy Gruber criticizes Trump and Vance's positions on abortionHow the Republican Party has retreated from its previous pro-life commitmentsWhy so many American pastors and churches refuse to address abortionThe forgotten Operation Rescue movement that helped transform American politicsWhy Gruber believes the pro-life movement has lost its momentumDebating abortion exceptions involving rape, incest, and maternal healthGruber's message about forgiveness and healing for women who have had abortionsThe story of Sophie and Hans Scholl, who defied Nazi GermanyHow Christianity helped shape Western civilization and the protection of human lifeThe inspiration behind Gruber's new book and film, The Last StandCharlie Kirk's role in supporting the White Rose ResistanceWhy Gruber believes ordinary Christians can change the course of history again Get Seth's book: thelaststand.com/book Support Seth and his mission: https://gruber-wear.printify.me/ —— Stay up-to-date with all things Resilient by subscribing to our Resilient Times Newsletter: https://resilienttimes.substack.com RESILIENT: Follow Us On Patreon: ⁠https://patreon.com/theresilientshow Follow Us On Instagram: ⁠https://www.instagram.com/resilientshow Follow Us On Twitter:⁠ ⁠https://twitter.com/resilientshow Follow Us On TikTok:⁠ ⁠https://www.tiktok.com/@resilientshow LIVE RESILIENT STORE: https://shop.theresilientshow.com Follow Chad: ⁠⁠https://www.instagram.com/chadrobo_official https://x.com/ChadRobo SPONSORS: Primal Viking: https://primalviking.com/pages/chad-robichaux Smith & Wesson: ⁠⁠https://www.smith-wesson.com⁠⁠ Vortex Optics: ⁠https://vortexoptics.com⁠ Gatorz Eyewear: ⁠⁠https://www.gatorz.com⁠⁠ Allied Wealth: ⁠https://alliedwealth.com⁠ BioXCellerator: ⁠https://www.bioxcellerator.com⁠ Core Medical: https://coremedicalgrp.com/chadpodcastcmg ——— The Resilient Show is a proud supporter of military and first responder communities in partnership with ⁠Mighty Oaks Foundation⁠.

    Gordon Chang: China Is Backing America’s Enemies Around The World

    Russia is fighting a war in Ukraine. Iran is targeting American forces in the Middle East. North Korea continues building up its military. These may seem like separate threats, but according to Gordon Chang, there's one country behind it all — China. Gordon Chang returns to The Resilient Show for Part 2 of his conversation with Chad, digging into Beijing's growing relationships with America's adversaries and why he believes we're underestimating just how closely they're working together. KEY TOPICS: What Xi Jinping really wanted from his meeting with President Trump China's role in Iranian attacks that killed American troops China's financial support for Iran and international money laundering Why Trump's actions in Venezuela and Iran threaten China's oil supply How China benefited from America's withdrawal from Afghanistan China's growing military cooperation with Russia, Iran, and North Korea Why Greenland and the Arctic are becoming strategically important Chinese surveillance operations in Cuba targeting U.S. military activity How a conflict over Taiwan could escalate into a global war China's potential access to critical American infrastructure and the electrical grid Why Chang believes Xi Jinping could take increasingly dangerous risks What Americans can do to prepare for potential disruptions and conflict

    Gordon Chang: A War With China Could Start INSIDE America

    The nightmare scenario has long been the same: China makes a move on Taiwan, the U.S. gets pulled into a war in the Pacific, and the world watches two superpowers collide thousands of miles from American soil. Gordon Chang thinks that may be the wrong way to look at it. In this interview, he argues that if war comes, China could try to hit the United States first — inside the country using vulnerabilities America already has. And Chang thinks this could happen soon with Xi Jinping's “window of opportunity” fast closing. In Part 1 of a two-parter, Chad sits down with Chang to unpack what China;s master plan, what could trigger a first attack, and what a potential U.S.-China war may look like. Key Topics: - Why Gordon Chang says the CCP views America as its enemy - Why a U.S.-China war could begin on American soil - China’s alleged infrastructure and operatives inside the U.S. - Xi Jinping’s shrinking window to make a move - Taiwan, Japan, and the flashpoints that could trigger a wider war - Whether China’s military can actually win a major conflict - Xi Jinping’s purge of China’s military leadership - China’s economic decline and population crisis - The CCP’s persecution of Christians - COVID and the Wuhan Institute of Virology - China’s role in the fentanyl crisis Follow Gordon on X: https://x.com/GordonGChang Get Gordon's book: https://www.amazon.com/Plan-Red-Chinas-Destroy-America/dp/1630062804/ —— Stay up-to-date with all things Resilient by subscribing to our Resilient Times Newsletter: https://resilienttimes.substack.com RESILIENT: Follow Us On Patreon: ⁠https://patreon.com/theresilientshow Follow Us On Instagram: ⁠https://www.instagram.com/resilientshow Follow Us On Twitter:⁠ ⁠https://twitter.com/resilientshow Follow Us On TikTok:⁠ ⁠https://www.tiktok.com/@resilientshow LIVE RESILIENT STORE: https://shop.theresilientshow.com Follow Chad: ⁠⁠https://www.instagram.com/chadrobo_official https://x.com/ChadRobo SPONSORS: Primal Viking: http://Primalviking.com Smith & Wesson: ⁠⁠https://www.smith-wesson.com⁠⁠ Vortex Optics: ⁠https://vortexoptics.com⁠ Gatorz Eyewear: ⁠⁠https://www.gatorz.com⁠⁠ Allied Wealth: ⁠https://alliedwealth.com⁠ BioXCellerator: ⁠https://www.bioxcellerator.com⁠ Core Medical: https://coremedicalgrp.com/chadpodcastcmg ——— The Resilient Show is a proud supporter of military and first responder communities in partnership with ⁠Mighty Oaks Foundation⁠.

    Jiu-Jitsu Legend Draculino On Growing Up With The Gracies, Fighting The Best, & Lessons On The Mat

    Before Brazilian jiu-jitsu became a global sport, Vinicius “Draculino” Magalhães was a kid surfing alongside the Gracies in Brazil. The people he grew up around would help shape martial arts history — and he would become part of that story himself. He went from watching his idols to facing them in competitions. In this episode of The Resilient Show, Chad sits down with his former instructor to revisit a lifetime on the mats. Chad knows firsthand what it’s like to learn from Draculino, and that shared history makes this conversation personal. Between the laughs and old stories, you get to know a fierce competitor who now finds some of his greatest pride in what his students accomplish outside the gym. KEY TOPICS: Growing up alongside the Gracies and finding jiu-jitsu through surfing The early Brazilian competition scene Facing his idols and competing against the best The devastating injury that nearly cost him his leg Chad’s years training under Draculino The danger of treating black belts like life gurus How modern jiu-jitsu has changed (and sometimes not for the better) Faith, friendship, and finding purpose through teaching Stay up-to-date with all things Resilient by subscribing to our Resilient Times Newsletter: https://resilienttimes.substack.com RESILIENT: Follow Us On Patreon: ⁠ https://patreon.com/theresilientshow Follow Us On Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/resilientshow Follow Us On Twitter:⁠ ⁠ https://twitter.com/resilientshow Follow Us On TikTok:⁠ ⁠https://www.tiktok.com/@resilientshow LIVE RESILIENT STORE: https://shop.theresilientshow.com Follow Chad: ⁠⁠ https://www.instagram.com/chadrobo_official https://x.com/ChadRobo SPONSORS: Primal Viking: http://Primalviking.com Smith & Wesson: ⁠⁠https://www.smith-wesson.com⁠⁠ Vortex Optics: ⁠https://vortexoptics.com⁠ Gatorz Eyewear: ⁠⁠https://www.gatorz.com⁠⁠ Allied Wealth: ⁠https://alliedwealth.com⁠ BioPro+: ⁠⁠https://www.bioproteintech.com/CHAD30⁠⁠ BioXCellerator: ⁠https://www.bioxcellerator.com⁠ Core Medical: https://coremedicalgrp.com/chadpodcastcmg ------ The Resilient Show is a proud supporter of military and first responder communities in partnership with ⁠Mighty Oaks Foundation⁠.

    How To Survive After America’s Power Grid Collapses

    The U.S. grid gets taken down by an enemy and the entire country goes dark. No phones. No ATMs. No gas pumps. No grocery deliveries. No running water. What now?That question drives Part 2 of our conversation with Jonathan Hollerman. Part 1 exposed how easily the grid could be attacked. Now Jon walks Chad through what he would actually do to survive it. Over the next hour and a half, Jon builds a survival plan from the ground up. First, he explains what you need to do now while the lights are still on. Then he walks through the decisions that could keep your family alive once the grid collapses and America descends into a Mad Max scenario — from escaping the city to storing food to choosing weapons, and everything in between. KEY TOPICS: What Jonathan witnessed during a nationwide grid-down war game Why the military and FEMA lack a plan for a nationwide outage How true is the claim that 90% of Americans could die within one year in a grid-down scenario? Why military bases depend on the civilian electrical grid America’s high-voltage transformers and years-long replacement times Physical attacks, cyberattacks, solar storms, and nuclear EMPs How few critical targets could trigger a nationwide blackout Concerns surrounding Chinese-built transformers inside the U.S. grid The policy failures that have left America’s infrastructure exposed What it would take to begin hardening the national grid PDF with more information about a grid down: https://griddownconsulting.com/grid-down-report —— Stay up-to-date with all things Resilient by subscribing to our Resilient Times Newsletter: https://resilienttimes.substack.com RESILIENT: Follow Us On Patreon: ⁠ https://patreon.com/theresilientshow Follow Us On Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/resilientshow Follow Us On Twitter:⁠ ⁠ https://twitter.com/resilientshow Follow Us On TikTok:⁠ ⁠https://www.tiktok.com/@resilientshow LIVE RESILIENT STORE: https://shop.theresilientshow.com Follow Chad: ⁠⁠ https://www.instagram.com/chadrobo_official https://x.com/ChadRobo SPONSORS: Smith & Wesson: ⁠⁠https://www.smith-wesson.com⁠⁠ Vortex Optics: ⁠https://vortexoptics.com⁠ Gatorz Eyewear: ⁠⁠https://www.gatorz.com⁠⁠ Allied Wealth: ⁠https://alliedwealth.com⁠ BioPro+: ⁠⁠https://www.bioproteintech.com/CHAD30⁠⁠ BioXCellerator: ⁠https://www.bioxcellerator.com⁠ Core Medical: https://coremedicalgrp.com/chadpodcastcmg ------ The Resilient Show is a proud supporter of military and first responder communities in partnership with ⁠Mighty Oaks Foundation⁠.

    America’s Power Grid Is Dangerously Exposed And NOBODY Has A Backup Plan

    Most Americans assume the electrical grid is protected — and that if it ever failed, the military or federal government would step in. Jonathan Hollerman once wrongly assumed the same thing. That changed after he participated in a nationwide grid-down war game at Maxwell Air Force Base alongside federal agencies, military branches and utility experts. Jonathan walked away convinced that the safety net Americans expect simply isn’t there. And worse, any attack on the grid would be absolutely catastrophic to the American people. In part one of this two-part conversation, Jonathan joins Chad to explain why America’s power grid may be the country’s greatest weakness, how quickly a nationwide failure could become catastrophic, and why decades of warnings have produced so little action. KEY TOPICS: What Jonathan witnessed during a nationwide grid-down war game Why the military and FEMA lack a plan for a nationwide outage How true is the claim that 90% of Americans could die within one year in a grid-down scenario?

    He Was Training To Become A Navy SEAL When 9/11 Changed Everything

    Rich Graham spent years learning how to fight at the highest level. He earned his Trident at 20, served as a sniper with SEAL Team 10, trained in martial arts for decades, and eventually built a career teaching others how to protect themselves. But his biggest realization was that tactical skill alone doesn’t make someone a complete warrior. In this episode, Rich joins Chad to take us inside his life with SEAL Teams and the experiences that shaped his Full Spectrum Warrior philosophy. They get into firearms, combatives, physical readiness, mindset, and preparedness — but also the personal cost of constantly chasing the next achievement. It's a raw and real conversation with someone who reached the summit most men dream about and discovered it still wasn’t enough. KEY TOPICS: Why Rich originally joined the Navy to hunt drug cartels Hearing America was going to war while in SEALs training on 9/11 How the intensity and purpose of training changed overnight Earning the SEAL Trident at only 20 years old Deploying as a sniper with SEAL Team 10 The “broken dudes” hiding behind elite achievement Building the Full Spectrum Warrior philosophy Faith, family, service, and life beyond the SEAL Teams LEARN MORE ABOUT RICH: His Full Spectrum Warrior Lifestyle book: fswlifestyle.com His Full Spectrum Warrior program: www.fullspectrumwarriors.com His charity: www.homefrontk9.org —— Stay up-to-date with all things Resilient by subscribing to our Resilient Times Newsletter: https://resilienttimes.substack.com RESILIENT: Follow Us On Patreon: ⁠ https://patreon.com/theresilientshow Follow Us On Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/resilientshow Follow Us On Twitter:⁠ ⁠ https://twitter.com/resilientshow Follow Us On TikTok:⁠ ⁠https://www.tiktok.com/@resilientshow LIVE RESILIENT STORE: https://shop.theresilientshow.com Follow Chad: ⁠⁠ https://www.instagram.com/chadrobo_official https://x.com/ChadRobo SPONSORS: Smith & Wesson: ⁠⁠https://www.smith-wesson.com⁠⁠ Vortex Optics: ⁠https://vortexoptics.com⁠ Gatorz Eyewear: ⁠⁠https://www.gatorz.com⁠⁠ Allied Wealth: ⁠https://alliedwealth.com⁠ BioPro+: ⁠⁠https://www.bioproteintech.com/CHAD30⁠⁠ BioXCellerator: ⁠https://www.bioxcellerator.com⁠ Core Medical: https://coremedicalgrp.com/chadpodcastcmg ------ The Resilient Show is a proud supporter of military and first responder communities in partnership with ⁠Mighty Oaks Foundation⁠.

    Carlson Gracie Jr. On The Origins Of BJJ, The UFC, And The Gracie Family Legacy

    This one is personal for Chad. He sits down with his longtime professor — Carlson Gracie Jr. — for a conversation about the family and the art that have shaped the world of fighting. Carlson shares stories about his grandfather Carlos Gracie, his father Carlson Gracie Sr., the early days of Vale Tudo and the UFC, and what it was like growing up inside one of the most influential families in martial arts. Very few people can talk about the evolution of BJJ from this close to the source. Carlson grew up around the people who built it, competed through a very different era, and has spent the decades since watching the art change in ways his father probably never could have imagined. Key Topics: Growing up inside the Gracie family legacy Carlson Gracie Sr.’s impact on Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu and Vale Tudo The fights that helped build the Gracie name How the early UFC changed Brazilian jiu-jitsu Why Royce Gracie was chosen for the UFC What made Carlson Gracie’s academy different Old-school BJJ vs. modern competition jiu-jitsu What Carlson thinks modern BJJ is losing Why self-defense still matters Why belts matter less than development What jiu-jitsu teaches about losing and resilience —— Stay up-to-date with all things Resilient by subscribing to our Resilient Times Newsletter: https://resilienttimes.substack.com RESILIENT: Follow Us On Patreon: ⁠ https://patreon.com/theresilientshow Follow Us On Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/resilientshow Follow Us On Twitter:⁠ ⁠ https://twitter.com/resilientshow Follow Us On TikTok:⁠ ⁠https://www.tiktok.com/@resilientshow LIVE RESILIENT STORE: https://shop.theresilientshow.com Follow Chad: ⁠⁠ https://www.instagram.com/chadrobo_official https://x.com/ChadRobo SPONSORS: Smith & Wesson: ⁠⁠https://www.smith-wesson.com⁠⁠ Vortex Optics: ⁠https://vortexoptics.com⁠ Gatorz Eyewear: ⁠⁠https://www.gatorz.com⁠⁠ Allied Wealth: ⁠https://alliedwealth.com⁠ BioPro+: ⁠⁠https://www.bioproteintech.com/CHAD30⁠⁠ BioXCellerator: ⁠https://www.bioxcellerator.com⁠ Core Medical: https://coremedicalgrp.com/chadpodcastcmg ------ The Resilient Show is a proud supporter of military and first responder communities in partnership with ⁠Mighty Oaks Foundation⁠.
