March 17, 2023 16:40 - 45 minutes - 41.7 MB

Barry Morgenstein never set out with a goal of becoming the Go To Headshot Photographer for Conservative Celebrities, public figures, or aspiring success stories. In fact, if you went back in time to tell younger, Liberal Barry, an aspiring musician, that this would be his path, he’d never believe you. And yet here he is, not just an award winning, top-of-the-food chain photographer, but an outspoken Conservative who’s managed to rise to the top in none other than New York City - one of the ...

Benghazi Was Just A Beginning with Kris Paronto

January 20, 2023 13:15 - 54 minutes - 50 MB

Who can ever forget the hubris of Hillary Clinton, as she sat before the world and spat out in exasperation, “ ..What difference at this point does it make?!”  That moment was enough for us all to understand that the four Americans who died in Benghazi, as well as those who survived, were now just a nuisance in the eyes of the government. Or at least, in the eyes of the people holding power in the government.  None of the survivors expected a parade or medals, but they certainly deserved b...

Matthew knew the men and women in our military would be answering the same call in their own way, with courage and sacrifice.

He just didn't necessarily know h...

Alma Ohena-Apare was born and raised in Accra, the capital of  Ghana. He remembers the stories his mom told of her year in New York, as an exchange student.

His dad expected him to go further than he did in the world of professional baseball.

Using Levity to Push Back against the Liberal Agenda with Bobby Sausalito

October 12, 2022 11:00 - 40 minutes - 37.7 MB

It takes intentional action to disrupt stress and depression. Certainly, it is easier and quicker to become deeply stressed and depressed than it is to climb out of those slumps. And today it seems as if unless we forcibly block out social media, "news" outlets and even a lot of entertainment, we are constantly swimming upstream against a relentless wave of fear, anger and struggle being sent downstream on a regular basis. This is what makes people like Bobby Sausalito so special.  You may ...

America is a mess but patriotism can still win the day, with Ian Wendt

October 05, 2022 11:19 - 34 minutes - 31.6 MB

Entrepreneurship, by nature, demands a certain kind of fortitude. Without the strength to rise and fall and fail and struggle and learn from your mistakes as well as build relationships that inspire and drive you, you will certainly give up.  Now, toss in entrepreneurship centered on patriotism, in a time where patriotism is somehow considered an Extremist thing, and very few will tap into the extra strength required when people you've known and even loved turn on you, let alone the strange...

Conservative Filmmaker Chris Martini - Making Movies Great Again

September 29, 2022 10:00 - 35 minutes - 33.1 MB

There's a lot of nostalgia in America right now. At least, for those of us who still remember what it was like when individuality was admired, patriotism united us, freedom of speech and religion were real things, parents held dominion over their child's medical, emotional, mental, and sexual education, and Americans felt at least an illusion of security within our borders - among other things.  We also miss the days when Hollywood stayed in its lane, serving to entertain us rather than sha...

Losing someone you love is painful enough even in "normal" circumstances. But imagine if that person's death was on video, published for the world to see, and then politically weaponized?

From the ways they wind up in t...

You know how the grocery and liquor stores are mobbed right before a storm hits? And who will ever forget how toilet paper was once the most sought after, poorly-stocked product?

Relentlessly Patriotic with Artistic Activist Scott LoBaido

March 22, 2022 09:00 - 43 minutes - 40.8 MB

With the censorship and cancel culture running through this country, too many Americans are afraid to speak up against tyranny or to even question a narrative. We’ve lost track of how many times we’ve been thanked for doing what we do, and then told by that same person that THEY aren’t speaking out in public because they will lose clients, followers, donors,  or relationships.  We hope every one of these people soon understands the cost of their silence. But in the meantime we have people l...
