    HR1 The New Health Revolution: Tech, Treatments, and a World About to Change. (9-3-26)

    Join the Conversation at 303-477-5600 or text 307-200-8222. Monday-Friday, 3 pm-6 pm MT. https://RushToReason.com HOUR 1 The New Health Revolution: Tech, Treatments, and a World About to Change John Rush and Steve House kick off with a riveting look at what we’ve really learned since COVID—questioning vaccine mandates, public fear, and the surprising persistence of workplace requirements, even for remote jobs. Is trust forever changed? Next, they dive headfirst into the future: cutting-edge peptides, GLP-1 meds, stem cells, and AI-powered wearables that promise real-time insights into your health. Imagine medicine that predicts and prevents problems before they start—are we on the brink of a healthcare revolution? Plus, discover how a weight loss trend is shaking up the restaurant industry and leaving major retailers rethinking inventory. The landscape is shifting fast. Are you ready for what’s coming? HOUR 2 Afghanistan’s Collapse, Cartel Drones, and Secrets You Weren’t Supposed to Hear John Rush sits down with filmmaker Michael Pack for a gripping inside story of America’s chaotic exit from Afghanistan: untold airport chaos, covert CIA units, Marines confronting moral injury, and the shocking gear left behind. What was really lost when the U.S. withdrew? Then, Todd Bensman of the Heritage Foundation warns of a chilling new threat: cartel operatives learning high-tech drone warfare in Ukraine, poised to bring those skills back to the Americas. Could this change the face of crime forever? And for a rare behind-the-scenes peek, John reveals how he handpicks guests and keeps interviews raw and unscripted. Don’t miss the secrets behind the show. Guests 1:08 — Michael Pack — https://palladiumpictures.com 26:43 — Todd Bensman — https://toddbensman.com HOUR 3 AI, Conspiracies, and the Hard Truths Behind Success, Politics, and Education John Rush and Jerzee Joe tackle jaw-dropping claims about Chinese bots influencing the AI debate and revisit past foreign meddling in the fracking wars. Could data centers slow rate hikes, or is it all smoke and mirrors? It’s an explosive mix of politics, power, and business. Then, the spotlight turns to shocking Biden audio, driver safety, and the real risks on the road. But the hour’s most personal moment comes when John faces a pointed question about taking a vacation—sparking a raw, honest look at his journey from childhood work to building businesses without a degree. What does it really take to succeed? Finally, John challenges the logic of anti-ICE school walkouts and asks: Should taxpayers keep pouring money into shrinking districts?
