Todd returns from Montana and dives straight into one of the most pressing issues in America today: the rise of political violence and the disturbing refusal by some in Congress to condemn it. A recent House resolution honoring the life and legacy of Charlie Kirk—while also condemning his assassination and political violence in all forms—passed with bipartisan support, yet dozens of members voted “no” or abstained. Todd breaks down what that vote means, why it matters, and how it reflects a deeper clash of worldviews shaping our culture and politics.

In this episode, Todd also reflects on ten years of “conservative, not bitter” broadcasting, the importance of persuasion over rage, and how the legacy of Charlie Kirk has challenged him to rethink and expand the reach of this program. He shares stories from his own life—including a hard-hitting football memory—to illustrate what it means to fight with conviction but without bitterness.

Later, Todd highlights the shocking response from Shelby Campbell, a congressional candidate in Michigan, who mocked Kirk’s death on TikTok. Todd explains why conversations with people like her are necessary, even when difficult, and previews how his show may evolve to meet today’s cultural battles head-on.

The episode closes with a personal reflection on Todd’s family trip to Glacier National Park, the value of rest, and the renewed energy he brings back to the microphone.
