    Weekend Podcast: It's The Energy, Stupid!

    Join us on this week’s pod for a hang with Daniel Turner, energy expert and founder of the energy think tank, Power The Future. Folks, if you’re wondering what single issue underlies pretty much every national and international decision out there these days… look no further. It’s something Americans take for granted. But have you ever considered how the sausage is actually made? Daniel Turner has made this single question his life’s work — and he explains here why we fight wars, who is undermining us here at home, where the future investments will be… and why Europe has guaranteed their continued obsolescence going forward. This one is, in our opinion, one of the most interesting discussions we’ve had yet. You’re invited! Hope to see you there.

    Weekly Pod: Rafael Mangual The nation's leading crime analyst on where it's all going... and who to believe

    Gang, join us this week for a no-holds barred discussion of the crime outlook in our cities — and who is to blame for it. Are the numbers really getting better, as we’re being told? Are the police being “shadow-defunded”? Is there a reason even the NYPD can’t keep order after a simple basketball game? Are our blue cities — which is all our cities, over one million — ever going to return to former glory? You’ll recognize Rafael from numerous media appearances, his writings for The Manhattan Institute (where he is a Fellow), the NY Post, and elsewhere. Paul and Rafael, both attorneys, last spoke when they testified to Congress together (and yes, there were some fireworks..!). Everyone has an opinion on public safety. Rafael has the receipts. Join us!

    Weekly Pod: A Terror Victim’s Son Speaks Joseph Connor on a terrorist attack -- and the political charades that followed

    Join us for a conversation with Joseph Connor, whose father Frank was murdered by the Puerto Rican separatist group, the FALN, in 1975. Since that time, successive Democrat administrations have not only impeded the search for justice in the case — they’ve actually abetted the terrorists’ cause, through clemency and venal political maneuvering. With the bomb-maker who killed Joseph’s father alive in Cuba — and with the U.S. putting heavy pressure on that Caribbean nation — we have to ask: Will that killer and others the Cubans have been harboring finally be brought to justice? The players will be familiar to you. The Clintons, Barack Obama, Anthony Holder… the next time you hear that the Dems are the law-and-order party, you’ll think of this podcast.

    Weekly Pod: The RFK Biography NY Post writer Isabel Vincent takes on another controversial topic

    Friends, join us this week for a conversation with journalist/author Isabel Vincent. You last saw her here chronicling the federal case against NJ Senator Bob Menendez (currently in federal prison, where Isabel amply demonstrated he belongs…). Now, it’s a just-released book on yet another compelling figure of our times: RFK, Jr. And wow, did we learn a lot. For instance: Did you know Jr. not only believes Sirhan Sirhan did not kill his father — but believes he knows who did? Did you know that there’s a good chance he is going to challenge for the Presidential nomination in 2028 — and has a shot? Or may instead play spoiler by splitting the Republican vote? Did you know this crusader for Americans’ health was a heroin addict — for 14 years? Did you know there’s a secretive corporation that houses the Kennedy money, going all the way back to Joe, Sr (You recall him — the bootlegger who worked with the mafia)? Did you know that many of the other Kennedys hate his guts? And campaign against him? And that he could care less? These are just some of the facts Isabel — who obtained access to Kennedy’s diaries, believe it or not — teases out in her newly published biography. It’s fascinating material regarding one of today’s most compelling figures — by one of today’s most compelling journalists. So while the general public continues to see Kennedy as just the standard-bearer for MAHA, suffice to say that he’s thinking in larger terms. And with the first truly informed biography on him, Isabel discovers why (yes, there is indeed, “a plan”) (he’s not a Kennedy for nothing, people). So join us for a wide-ranging discussion of the definitive book on the man who could swing the next presidential election: RFK, JR: The Fall And Rise, by Isabel Vincent.

    WEEKLY POD: A Conversation With a Crime and Mental Health Expert: Carolyn Gorman of the Manhattan Institute tells us how to fix this mess

    Friends, all we hear these days from our leaders in blue cities and states is how we need to “address the mental health crisis.” It’s a crisis, alright — thanks to their idiotic approaches of the past, and their lack of action now. So as Sheridan Gorman gets shot in Chicago, Ross Falzone gets pushed down the subway stairs in NYC, Iryna Zarutska gets her throat cut in Charlotte… what should be done? What should Gavin Newsom, Kathy Hochul, Zohran Mamdani, Karen Bass, Brandon Johnson — we could go on — actually do? Instead of kicking the can down the road as killers roam our streets? Meet Carolyn Gorman, mental health expert with the premier urban policy think tank in America, The Manhattan Institute. No need to belabor it: here’s the formula. Will it be perfect? Of course not. Will it be a thousand times better — and cheaper — than what we do now? How could it not? Join us for an adult conversation (remember those?) with a woman who has made this issue her life’s work. Here’s hoping some of our current “leaders” listen in.

    This Week’s Pod: Letitia James’ Challenger, Saritha Komatireddy

    If there is one major Democrat politico vulnerable to challenge in New York State this year, it is the execrable Letitia James, who is to law enforcement what a screen door is to a submarine. Meet Saritha Komatireddy, former U.S. Attorney, practicing lawyer, and Republican challenger to Letitia James for the position of Attorney General of New York. Now full disclosure, this writer had a significant case with Saritha. I can confirm, as the saying goes, that she’s forgotten more about law enforcement than Letitia James ever knew. Add to this the fact that James faces two new criminal referrals — one to Florida, one to Illinois — over her alleged mortgage machinations, and you have an AG race that is looking like anything but a slam dunk. But why Saritha? What will she do about fraud? New York’s sanctuary policies? Criminal statutes that the likes of Alvin Bragg have chosen to ignore? Join us for a conversation where Saritha faces these questions head-on, with no equivocating. A refreshing take from a candidate for public office. So meet Saritha Komatireddy, candidate for New York State Attorney General. Join us!
