The Chris Stigall Show

<p>Chris Stigall has been ranked by Talkers Magazine as one of the “100 Most Important Talk Show Hosts in America” since 2008. A former writer’s intern for “Late Show with David Letterman,” as well as columnist, cable TV guest, and radio host - Chris weaves captivating interviews with his love of news, politics and comedy to create "The Chris Stigall Show” podcast.</p>

The Boomerang of BLM and Me Too

A couple of stories from yesterday have Stigall on alert. The story of Jussie Smollett and the Illinois Supreme Court decision in his case and the case of Pete Hegseth's alleged sexual assault. They share a couple of things in common Stigall feels need exploring. Plus, who is Trump's new pick for Attorney General, Pam Bondi? The media reaction should be enough to satisfy most Trump voters. Daniel Turner from "Power the Future" discusses Trump's energy priorities on day one and how those in corporate energy production will react. Will we see an immediate shuttering of wind farms? And the bathroom fight on Capitol Hill caused AOC to come up with one of the wildest moments of gaslighting ever created in politics. Paula Scanlan, a former teammate of the now infamous "Lia" Thomas - the male swimmer at University of Pennsylvania who joined the women's team - joins the show to respond to the new bathroom fight and reflect on how this issue impacted the election. -For more info visit the official website: https://chrisstigall.comInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/chrisstigallshow/Twitter: https://twitter.com/ChrisStigallFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/chris.stigall/Listen on Spotify: https://tinyurl.com/StigallPodListen on Apple Podcasts: https://bit.ly/StigallShowSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

From Woke to Awakened

Today's show has a running theme. The American people are reengaged in ways Stigall believes hasn't been seen in his lifetime. From uprisings at county meetings, to high interest in D.O.G.E. led by Musk and Ramaswamy, and even in the way prominent Democrats seem to be speaking about why the lost - Americans have had a severe awakening and it's tremendous fun! Hear some high-profile Dems shred their own. A new podcast created for DOGE? Scott Pressler leads a group of patriots to savage the corrupt county officials trying to steal the election in Pennsylvania. And the withering on the vine delivery of MSNBC hosts on Morning Joe as they cope with a failing network and an audience that's totally abandoned them. Big things are happening. It's in the air. Can you feel it? -For more info visit the official website: https://chrisstigall.comInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/chrisstigallshow/Twitter: https://twitter.com/ChrisStigallFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/chris.stigall/Listen on Spotify: https://tinyurl.com/StigallPodListen on Apple Podcasts: https://bit.ly/StigallShowSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Republicans Needlessly Fumble In Victory

The Governor of Florida, Ron DeSantis is pretty steamed at GOP Senators yesterday for missing votes on lifetime judicial appointments. Hear what happened. Attorney and former DOJ spokesman Mark Weaver returns to explain why the very last judge and case against Trump in New York may be hanging on for the entire Trump term. A new trans-member of Congress has been elected and that's caused Speaker Johnson to deal with restroom use issues. Rep. Nancy Mace is having none of it. Lt. Col. Tony Schafer explains how the pics of Tulsi and Pete Hegseth with change our military and foreign policy and what is the Husk up to in encouraging Ukraine to fire on Russia? And more fantastic cabinet pics from Trump. Stigall explains the biggest attributes they all have in common.   -For more info visit the official website: https://chrisstigall.comInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/chrisstigallshow/Twitter: https://twitter.com/ChrisStigallFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/chris.stigall/Listen on Spotify: https://tinyurl.com/StigallPodListen on Apple Podcasts: https://bit.ly/StigallShowSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Gen X Has Had Enough

Stigall stumbled upon a fascinating article on the influence of what's known as Generation X, of which he is a member. If you were born between 1965-1980, this includes you. What is causing them to push back on woke culture and what does an 80s sitcom star understand about it? Plus, Pennsylvania is still a huge trouble spot for Republicans and election integrity. Whether you live there or whether you don't, it's critical to understand this key state will continue to have an outsized influence in our national elections and everyone should understand what Democrats are up to at this hour. PA's Democrat governor and the presumptive future presidential nominee Josh Shapiro has finally broken his silence on a two week recounting effort. RNC attorney and election law expert Linda Kerns helps unpack this important, ongoing legal fight in the Democrat recount effort. Plus, economist Steve Moore on who he'd like to see become Trump's next Treasury secretary and can Elon and Vivek really save American taxpayers' money with D.O.G.E? -For more info visit the official website: https://chrisstigall.comInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/chrisstigallshow/Twitter: https://twitter.com/ChrisStigallFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/chris.stigall/Listen on Spotify: https://tinyurl.com/StigallPodListen on Apple Podcasts: https://bit.ly/StigallShowSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Now They're Kissing Trump's Ring?!

Wait until you hear who said they had a private meeting with Trump on Friday. Stigall brings in two favorites to have a laugh. Sean Spicer, former White House Press Secretary explains the dynamics of the Trump White House and how all these new appointees - if confirmed - will work with the President-elect. Hint - if you were an Apprentice fan, it wasn't too far off. The brilliant John Hayward, Breitbart's National Security writer shares with us what it means now that Joe Biden has given Ukraine the green-light to launch the American-made missiles we gave them deep into Russian territory. The cascade of criticism of Trump appointees is laughably hysterical. Plus, the Democrats keep counting votes - admittedly illegally - in Pennsylvania in an attempt to put Bob Casey back in the Senate. The recount has already flipped one county. Stigall has the latest. -For more info visit the official website: https://chrisstigall.comInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/chrisstigallshow/Twitter: https://twitter.com/ChrisStigallFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/chris.stigall/Listen on Spotify: https://tinyurl.com/StigallPodListen on Apple Podcasts: https://bit.ly/StigallShowSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

They're Still Trying To Steal in Pennsylvania!

The party can't start just yet. Stigall starts the show with the chairman of the RNC Michael Whatley who's going to war with the lawless commissioners of Bucks County, PA as they try to cheat their way to victory for Bob Casey in the Senate. Today's show is also an exploration into the swamp mentality that Trump and Vance must now navigate as more of the President-elects picks must now go before the Senate for confirmation in January. It's one thing to be excited about the Trump agenda, but there's still some work for him to get there and Stigall unpacks the steps. The brilliant former leftist-turned Fox News host and author - Tammy Bruce says because she knows the left she also understands it's not enough to win, their misdeeds must be punished. Plus, you'll stand and cheer for the continued outspoken honesty of Justine Bateman. We're big fans!   -For more info visit the official website: https://chrisstigall.comInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/chrisstigallshow/Twitter: https://twitter.com/ChrisStigallFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/chris.stigall/Listen on Spotify: https://tinyurl.com/StigallPodListen on Apple Podcasts: https://bit.ly/StigallShowSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Now We'll See What the GOP is Made Of

Trump's latest cabinet picks have really set the pundit class and many establishment Republican's heads on fire. Stigall blasts away at critics, and not just Democrats but those supposed Trump voters and members of the GOP who will be casting votes. There's worry Trump's picks could be eating away at the slim lead in the House of Representatives. Representative Scott Perry of Pennsylvania's 10th district gives us the behind the scenes discussions on how Speaker Johnson and the Republican caucus carry out the Trump agenda with new Senate leadership. Col. Kurt Schlichter pulls no punches in discussing Pete Hegseth's appointment to Secretary of Defense. And former DOJ spokesman Mark Weaver unpacks a few exciting scenarios from a Gatez lead DOJ, the future of the Supreme Court, the lawfare against Donald Trump, and some insights on the trial of Daniel Penny in New York. -For more info visit the official website: https://chrisstigall.comInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/chrisstigallshow/Twitter: https://twitter.com/ChrisStigallFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/chris.stigall/Listen on Spotify: https://tinyurl.com/StigallPodListen on Apple Podcasts: https://bit.ly/StigallShowSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Trump Stuns Everyone Yesterday!

Wow, who saw this coming? If for some reason you're not up to speed on the moves Trump made in appointments to his cabinet - Stigall breaks it all down today. From the DOD to the DOGE (that's new), heads are exploding over the aggressive and fast-paced moves coming from Mar-a-lago. Meanwhile Trump heads to D.C. today to meet with Congress and the Biden White House. And the Senate has a secret vote for their new leader. The Washington Examiner's Salena Zito joins Stigall to discuss the one hold-out Democrat who won't concede - Bob Casey of Pennsylvania. Also a look under the hood at what she thinks happened on Election Day in the Keystone State which is fascinating. And could we be talking to the next Attorney General of the United States today? Our old friend Matthew Whitaker, Trump's former acting Attorney General joins the show with his take on all the moves and if he could be next. And James Carville cries with his cat. -For more info visit the official website: https://chrisstigall.comInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/chrisstigallshow/Twitter: https://twitter.com/ChrisStigallFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/chris.stigall/Listen on Spotify: https://tinyurl.com/StigallPodListen on Apple Podcasts: https://bit.ly/StigallShowSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

News Is Flying Fast. Be Careful!

Stigall has some friendly advice today about the fast and furious nature of all the information coming out of Trump headquarters regarding appointments and positions the President-elect Trump is making. What in the world is going on with this Pennsylvania senate seat between Dave McCormick and Bob Casey as freshman orientation gets underway today? Kelly Johnston - former Secretary of the US Senate breaks down the inside scoop on how this operates and what he thinks will happen with the Senate leadership vote. Fascinating stuff for political geeks! Plus, Chief Economist Steve Moore is headed to Mar-a-Lago today. Could he have a role with Trump's economic team? He was last picked to be Fed Chair. Maybe another try? And why are the markets exploding since last Tuesday's Trump win? -For more info visit the official website: https://chrisstigall.comInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/chrisstigallshow/Twitter: https://twitter.com/ChrisStigallFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/chris.stigall/Listen on Spotify: https://tinyurl.com/StigallPodListen on Apple Podcasts: https://bit.ly/StigallShowSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Beware of Senate Republicans

Mandates in politics matter. But there's one swampy group in Washington D.C. that absolutely plays by its own rules and still wants to put up a fight against their own voters' wishes. That's the gang of Republicans in the US Senate. Ol' Crow Mitch McConnell has moved up voting on new leadership to Wednesday of this week and his establishment pals are trying to take the wheel with his help. Can Trump stop them? Plus, the billion dollar disaster that was the Harris/Walz campaign continues to be scrutinized by fellow Democrats. Blame shifting and denial is rampant. Only a handful are willing to tell the truth about Trum's landslide win. Trump is making big moves in cabinet appointees already, with more to come this week. And it's Veteran's Day with one of our favorites - and one close to Team Trump - PA's own Sean Parnell who talks about the winning strategy in the Keystone State. Can it be replicated? Will Bob Casey resign? Will Dave McCormick show up to the Senate this week anyway? Should be some fun on the Hill this week. -For more info visit the official website: https://chrisstigall.comInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/chrisstigallshow/Twitter: https://twitter.com/ChrisStigallFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/chris.stigall/Listen on Spotify: https://tinyurl.com/StigallPodListen on Apple Podcasts: https://bit.ly/StigallShowSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

The Anatomy of a Win

It's often called the most important state in the union when it comes to elections. Pennsylvania racked up some massive Republican victories in what is still a very broken and rigged system. How'd it happen? Stigall unpacks the turf war between the Democrats in DC and Philly. Scott Pressler waged war on the ground with voter registrations and Early Vote Action that increased numbers and early voting by a lot. Is that the new way forward for all Republicans? Is the RNC now on board? Sean Spicer, the first Trump press secretary joins Stigall to discuss the personnel picks Trump is getting ready to make. Who will be the new face of the White House for Trump? -For more info visit the official website: https://chrisstigall.comInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/chrisstigallshow/Twitter: https://twitter.com/ChrisStigallFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/chris.stigall/Listen on Spotify: https://tinyurl.com/StigallPodListen on Apple Podcasts: https://bit.ly/StigallShowSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

So Many Tears. So Much Crazy.

While it is somewhat entertaining to listen to leftists melt down over Trump's election, Stigall unpacks the psychology of it. Why were there tears from young women at the Harris "concession" speech? Have you heard what some of the Democrats on traditional TV shows are telling themselves and their viewers about women, brown, and black voters for Trump? World leaders are on the phone immediately congratulating President Trump. What do we suppose the conversations sound like? The brilliant John Hayward gives us some insights. And now it's time for Trump to start hiring. How does he avoid the pitfalls of the hiring mistakes of his first term? Former - and maybe future - White House Deputy Press Secretary Hogan Gidley offers his perspective on the hiring process in Trump's next term. And John Fetterman leaves Jon Stewart hanging on Election night. -For more info visit the official website: https://chrisstigall.comInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/chrisstigallshow/Twitter: https://twitter.com/ChrisStigallFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/chris.stigall/Listen on Spotify: https://tinyurl.com/StigallPodListen on Apple Podcasts: https://bit.ly/StigallShowSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Historic American Victory!

Stigall has been at it a full 24 hours explaining to various media outlets all that occurred in Pennsylvania to make Donald Trump the 47th President of the United States. Now he reflects on what he feels Trump's historic win means in practical terms for average voters. Did "too big to rig" work as a strategy to stave off potential fraud? How much better or worse is election integrity this time around and how do we fix it now that Trump has won. Heritage Foundation Election Law Reform specialist Hans Von Spakovsky says Trump has the power to make a permanent fix now. In Virginia our friend Daniel Turner explains how Trump kept it close and why energy policy must be Trump's day one priority to begin bringing down the cost of everything Americans buy. And a very happy and hoarse Sonny Joy Nelson - Trump 2024 media director - was live from the victory after party with President Trump and gives us the behind the scenes details of what went on in the hours leading up to Trump's historic victory speech in Florida early this morning. Plus, liberal tears and tantrums from last night's broadcasts. -For more info visit the official website: https://chrisstigall.comInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/chrisstigallshow/Twitter: https://twitter.com/ChrisStigallFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/chris.stigall/Listen on Spotify: https://tinyurl.com/StigallPodListen on Apple Podcasts: https://bit.ly/StigallShowSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Election Day with J.D. Vance!

Vote! That's all that's left now. Vice Presidential candidate and Ohio Senator JD Vance stops by the show to issue one last encouragement. Stigall discusses the Joe Rogan endorsement and more. Plus, CNN and MSNBC sound pretty angry and concerned. What's that mean? Pennsylvania candidate for US Senate Dave McCormick makes his final pitch to us. And Stigall explains how Trump has built the most unlikely political alliances that are now a movement most all of us will remember where we were when it happened. There may never be another campaign cycle or candidate like Donald Trump again. Today, we bask in it one last time. -For more info visit the official website: https://chrisstigall.comInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/chrisstigallshow/Twitter: https://twitter.com/ChrisStigallFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/chris.stigall/Listen on Spotify: https://tinyurl.com/StigallPodListen on Apple Podcasts: https://bit.ly/StigallShowSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Is A Landslide Coming?

Depends on who you're listening to. Stigall unpacks all the punditry and polling from the weekend. From "garbage" to "very fine people" to "shooting Liz Cheney," do these things work for or against Democrats? Who will be the surprise demographic in this election tomorrow? Women or men? It's clear what the Harris people see as their biggest concern while Trump says he probably shouldn't say what he ended up saying on the trial this weekend about what he thinks we'll see. One of his most trusted senior advisors to this campaign, Corey Lewandowski makes a bold prediction and for those concerned about "the steal" in Philadelphia and beyond in Pennsylvania - Stigall brings in the chief legal council of the RNC in the state to calm fears and explain why they're fully prepared and ready to tackle any shenanigans immediately. And will the story of P'nut the Squirrel move any voters' decision making? -For more info visit the official website: https://chrisstigall.comInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/chrisstigallshow/Twitter: https://twitter.com/ChrisStigallFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/chris.stigall/Listen on Spotify: https://tinyurl.com/StigallPodListen on Apple Podcasts: https://bit.ly/StigallShowSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

The Close.

Nothing left to do but vote, and wait. Democrats seem uniquely panicy to Stigall as their last gasp messaging to women appears to have the opposite effect intended. JD Vance makes heads explode with his four hour talk on Joe Rogan's show. Trump mocks war hawk Liz Cheney and the left is back to defending her to their audience for some reason. The economy is still THE issue and the CEO of Goya Foods, Bob Unanue joins the show to discuss the notion that Trump has offended Hispanics and food companies like his are engaged in price gouging. Finally, it's important to Stigall that we all keep the main thing the main thing and not lose our heads in this moment of news and politics. Spencer Klaven has authored an important new book called "Light of the Mind, Light of the World" to help us all keep our eyes and focus trained on what we need most. More than science, news, politics - the world is bigger than this moment and we need to be in relationship with our Creator. -For more info visit the official website: https://chrisstigall.comInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/chrisstigallshow/Twitter: https://twitter.com/ChrisStigallFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/chris.stigall/Listen on Spotify: https://tinyurl.com/StigallPodListen on Apple Podcasts: https://bit.ly/StigallShowSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

It's Garbage Day

Trump outdoes himself in Wisconsin yesterday as he shows up to his rally in an orange vest riding a garbage truck. The scene set by Biden calling Trump voters garbage a day before. It's a masterstroke Stigall wants to bask in for a bit before getting down to business. Equally enjoyable? The media meltdown over it and we have all the audio. Plus interviews with South Carolina Senator Tim Scott, WWE Hall of Famer and now Mayor of Knox County, Tennessee Glenn Jacobs who recently interviewed Trump on his friend "The Undertaker's" podcast. And Stigall continues to walk out his theory on the future of the Democrats if Kamala should lose on Tuesday and the Democrats are up to their old tricks causing a lot of concern about election integrity once again. -For more info visit the official website: https://chrisstigall.comInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/chrisstigallshow/Twitter: https://twitter.com/ChrisStigallFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/chris.stigall/Listen on Spotify: https://tinyurl.com/StigallPodListen on Apple Podcasts: https://bit.ly/StigallShowSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Revenge of the Husk?

Stigall is processing Biden's "garbage" comments and the ensuing response from Democrats like the Governor of Pennsylvania Josh Shapiro. Completely overshadowing Harris' speech in D.C. last night, now Stigall imagines the ultimate outcome. Trump national press secretary Karoline Leavitt joins the show to discuss this, Trump's concerns about early vote cheating in PA, and Harris' demands of Joe Rogan. RNC lawyer Linda Kerns explains the announcement from the RNC last night that they're suing to key counties in PA and what you can do if you see irregularities. Plus, former acting Attorney General of the United States Matthew Whitaker joins from the Trump campaign trial to discuss Trump's new plans on seized assets from gang arrests when he becomes President. And Steve Bannon is out of jail and off the chain! -For more info visit the official website: https://chrisstigall.comInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/chrisstigallshow/Twitter: https://twitter.com/ChrisStigallFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/chris.stigall/Listen on Spotify: https://tinyurl.com/StigallPodListen on Apple Podcasts: https://bit.ly/StigallShowSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Legacy Media Thinks Trump Will Win

It seems pretty obvious by now after multiple partisan, hack newspapers have decided to issue no endorsements after decades of endorsing the Democrat ticket - they're trying to offer an olive branch to what's about to happen. It's gotten so bad, Jeff Bezos of Amazon and owner of the Washington Post wrote an open editorial admonishing liberal journalists for losing trust with their readers. Stigall thinks its far too late and you're seeing it in the way Trump is running his campaign this year. Philly DA Larry Krasner is suing Elon Musk for his million dollar give aways in Pennsylvania and attorney George Bochetto offers his response as well as his opinion on how Trump should handle the lawfare that's been waged against him in a new film called Chasing Trump II. Plus, Stigall checks in to the PA Senate race as Dave McCormick has pulled neck-and-neck with Bob Casey and why was a Republican woman arrested yesterday simply for encouraging voters to stay in line for a ballot? You'll hear her story and how it became national news. -For more info visit the official website: https://chrisstigall.comInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/chrisstigallshow/Twitter: https://twitter.com/ChrisStigallFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/chris.stigall/Listen on Spotify: https://tinyurl.com/StigallPodListen on Apple Podcasts: https://bit.ly/StigallShowSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

This Won't Be Decided By Rallies

Stigall is being called a bit of a kill-joy after his analysis of the Madison Square Garden rally in New York yesterday. Not because he doesn't think it was a huge and exciting event. Not because he doesn't think they're great fun and motivators for Trump voters. He simply cautions reading too much into it - both Trump voters and the lunatics calling it a Nazi rally. Similarly, Harris seemed to have a weekend full of further messaging disaster, but this too can be over-analyzed for its meaning. The one man voter registration machine Scott Pressler is encouraging you to vote early with just two days left specifically in Pennsylvania, and he's sounding the alarm on what appears to be some early games going on with late voter registration. He explains what you can do to help. Plus, JD Vance and Megyn Kelly absolutely destroy left wing talking points over the weekend on left-wing TV shows. You'll hear it here. -For more info visit the official website: https://chrisstigall.comInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/chrisstigallshow/Twitter: https://twitter.com/ChrisStigallFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/chris.stigall/Listen on Spotify: https://tinyurl.com/StigallPodListen on Apple Podcasts: https://bit.ly/StigallShowSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

No more free speech for us. These 'folks' are assholes who think we're stupid because of where we choose to live! Proof: Kacklebritches talking to us as toddlers when asked to explain the war in Ukrane, as a small country good & Russia, a big country bad.
