Is a life in your comfort zone a life well lived? The simple, predictable, and safe life may just be a fake life after all. Mike Slater explains the difference between real life vs. fake life, and why we need to live outside of our comfort zones, as that is when we truly grow and evolve into our best selves.
We, as a nation, are so DESPERATE for the truth. We have our government and leaders of our country, who constantly lie to us and deviate from the truth so much, that we don’t know what to believe. Case in point, the Southwest Airlines debacle. We have Southwest Airlines and major news outlets peddling the lies that over 1,800 flights have been cancelled, due to severe weather patterns disrupting air travel. How is that the case when no other airline was affected by this so-called ‘bad weather?’ Or, was it that the pilots and crew staged a massive ‘sickout’ in protest of the company’s vaccine mandates? The government, the media, and even Big Tech are colluding together to cover up THE TRUTH, to change our perception of reality, and to have that power over us that they aim for. It’s the lack of clarity, the lack of information, and the lack of truth that Americans are starving for. Mike Slater shares more about this on today’s show.
It is incredibly difficult to find the truth in today’s society with big tech and the radical left institutions controlling the information flow.

Plus, Rep. Andy Biggs joins the show to provide his thoughts on the Southwest Airlines “weather issues” that stopped service over the weekend.
We, as a nation, must be able to discuss things that are uncomfortable, without being silenced. Americans are too afraid to have that uncomfortable discussion, or fear that they will be censored for speaking out. Many steer away from discussing hot-button topics like mask mandates, vaccines, and even election integrity. The number one issue that Republicans need to very diligent about, though, is election integrity. Minnesota’s RNC Committeeman, Max Rymer, joins Mike Slater share his thoughts on election integrity, how to survive in a blue state politically, if blue states can become red again, and why he says that his state of Minnesota is ‘ground zero’ for bad political ideas.
Companies caving to corporate wokeism are almost making it out to be a competition as to who can support these social causes the most. From companies lobbying to support slave labor in China, to even rallying behind the Black Lives Matter protests; Blue state businesses are all running with the Left’s radical ideologies, and have even now aligned themselves with the government on COVID measures, such as allowing customers to only enter with a mask and or with a vaccine card. That is where the Conservative business app Publicsq.com comes into play. Michael Seifert, Founder of PublicSq.com, joins the show to discuss businesses in the blue states, as well as his app that provides an outlet for consumers to spend their money elsewhere.
Is there hope for Americans in Blue states that are run by power-hungry, misguided, and hostile Leftist Authoritarians? The outlook is bleak.

It may be a First Amendment and Fourth Amendment issue, but we all know the government doesn’t care about that. Mike Slater has all the details on how big brother watching YOU.
Parents are standing up and speaking out against the CRT curriculum being taught in schools across the country. Yet, they are now being targeted by the DOJ, characterized as domestic terrorists, and the FBI has even gotten involved.

Free speech is being shut down, parents’ free speech is being shut down, and it’s all in response to the far-left National School Boards Association letter to President Biden. Mike Slater exposes the Left’s false narratives, and the weaponization of our Federal government.
