Hour three begins with fan favorite self-defense attorney Howard Snader discusses what happens in a self-defense shooting…in fact, as always happens we run out of time so you’ll hear him again on Monday 4/20 for another three segments. Howard was followed by first time AAR guest, Gayle Pearlstein-Founder of Lox and Loaded, founded soon after Oct 7th for “folks with Jewish heritage.” Gayle was followed by my friend, Mark “Oz” Geist, Benghazi HERO for what is a REAL discussion on what actually happened. Mark, of course is known for the movie and book, 13 Hours! NOW, as GREAT as all of my guests were, this final interview of the day was young 9 y/o TX HONEY BADGER who COMPLETELY disarmed me with her incredible innocence and charm! An NRA LIFE member since she was TEN days old, she has been ranked number 2 in the WORLD for her Jujitsu match fighting! She is an avid shooter and was NO DOUBT the FUNNEST interview I have EVER done in near 18 years on the nations airwaves! ENJOY this interview as much as I did. What an AMAZING breath of fresh air!!

Another great hour and I was able to bring NRA Exec Dir Doug Hamlin to the show right out of the gate! As I’ve been mentioning, if fans stopped by my booth, and MANY did, I would mic you up! Mission accomplished as Ron from WY stepped up to the microphone with me, a long time fan of the show he and his wife were enjoying the NRA convention when they took me up on my offer! Funny how others were scared toi get on the mic…but not Ron who originally hails from Brooklyn as you’ll soon hear! His NY came out and off he went. Love it and so will you! Rob Pincus stopped by along with Kahr Arms CEO Justin Moon and a great time was had by all!

Acting US Attorney General Todd Blanche sits down for a wide ranging discussion of our rights and where we are going the next two years with Trump and what a post-Trump world means for our gun rights. Other guests include Justin Davis, NRA PR Chief, and Old Glory Bank protecting our financial freedom as gun owners…and MORE!

Live from the floor of the NRA 2026 annual meetings and convention, ENJOY

Encore Roundtable as Mark’s wife had a flat tire on busy ATL interstate RIGHT BEFORE SHOWTIME. . Family first.

The results of VA legislative session become clear(er) as the day progresses…What did the wicked witch democrat tyrant of the east do with the constitution crushing bills infringing on your gun rights as the deadline approached last night? take a listen. …read this statement from this wench…Then get MAD! “I grew up in a family where responsible gun ownership was expected, and I carried a firearm every day as a former federal agent. I support the Second Amendment. But gun violence is the leading cause of death for children and teenagers in America, and that should motivate all of us to ask ourselves what we can do to mitigate this harm,” said Spanberger. “This is why I’ve made amendments to provide clarity for both responsible gun owners and law enforcement, making clear what these changes mean in practice — as Virginians safely purchase and store their firearms. These common sense steps will help keep our families, our communities, and our law enforcement officers safe.” In response to Spanberger’s actions towards gun control legislation, John Commerford, the National Rifle Association’s Institute for Legislation Action’s executive director, released the following statement: “Governor Spanberger’s last-minute amendments to these gun control bills—slipped in during the dead of night—are nothing more than a desperate ploy to prop up her radical redistricting referendum by delaying action until after Election Day. These changes don’t fix the bills; they merely attempt to rebrand blatant violations of law-abiding Virginians’ Second Amendment rights. Such cynical political maneuvers reveal not only her contempt for constitutional freedoms, but also her disregard for the hundreds of thousands of responsible gun owners across the Commonwealth. Our message to the Governor remains the same. We’ll see you in court”

We run the gamut today with Andy Hooser. Swalwell out, Mark Kelly embarrasses himself…again, VA civil rights deadline TODAY, and Judge Roger Benitez in CA, retires, taking years of pro 2A rulings in that commie state with him…will there ever be another like him in CA?

The roundtable crew hits on all cylinders as we cover as much ground in 2A world as the hour permits. The crew does NOT disappoint, as usual!

Jared, Cam and Phil bring their unique perspectives to the nightmare unfolding in VA as the Democrats, lead by Spanburger pass a myriad of anti-gun rights bills awaiting signature by todays deadline in the face of an overt threat to sue by the US DOJ Civil Rights division.

Justin McNeal, SD R candidate for US Senate joins Mark for his first interview. Keeping the Senate is HUGE for Trump in the 2026 mid-terms and Justin fills all the gaps! AWR Hawkins weighs in on the last weeks huge news from DOJ, Harmeet Dhillon and her threats to VA Governor Spanburger on unconstitutional anti-gun bills that violate the civil rights of citizens.

This will anger you. It should. VA Dems have gone too far and the Trump administration is watching and waiting.

New Jersey. The laws, the lawsuits, the permit requirements and what we’re doing to stop them in their trcks from continued infringements of our rights and freedoms.
