1.==> Trump/Ukraine Scandal Fallout
For an interesting discussion on the whistleblower story invite co-founder and co-editor of The American Prospect Robert Kuttner on your show. He can discuss whether the scandal will derail Joe Biden’s campaign for the White House, the other Democratic presidential candidates and how much longer the “progressive non-aggression pact” will hold, and what impeachment means to the country and what progressives should be looking for in the process. Robert Kuttner is a former columnist for BusinessWeek, the Washington Post, and the Boston Globe. He is the author of twelve books including “The Stakes: 2020 and the Survival of American Democracy. He currently holds the Ida and Meyer Kirstein Chair at Brandeis University. Contact Johanna Ramos Boyer at (703) 646-5137; (703) 400-1099 (cell); johanna@jrbcomm.com or Erin Bolden at (703) 646-5188.
2. ==> Whistleblowing: Is it Always Ethical? (Or Truthful?)
What does it take to be a whistleblower? How do you know when to blow? In today’s world of grey – where right and wrong can appear blurry and the truth becomes subjective – what does it mean to be ‘ethical’ in business and in life? Interview John Smith – an ordinary guy who unwittingly got caught up in the 1980’s S&L crisis and found out the hard way that you don’t have to commit a crime to be convicted of one. “At the beginning of the FBI task force investigation, I gave them truth and honesty. I never lied about anything. Truth and integrity would eventually be my way up and out. They chose me over all other defendants, suspects and lawyers. They relied on my ethics and integrity. In the end this saved me.” John Smith is a speaker and author of “Embracing the Abyss” which chronicles his true story of unknowingly becoming a part of a fraud scandal and receiving a presidential pardon. Contact Smith at (214) 216-2199; JSmith@rtirguests.com
3. ==> Is it Time to Get Rid of the Electoral College?
As we enter another election cycle, the debate begins again over the Electoral College and whether it still serves a purpose in American politics. Historian and constitutional attorney Tara Ross has debated the merits of the much-maligned Electoral College and the National Popular Vote movement on stages across the U.S. Invite her to explain what the Electoral College does, how it began and why we still need it. The author of numerous books, Tara’s work has been published by many news outlets, including the National Law Journal, USA Today, the Washington Examiner, FoxNews.com, and The Washington Times. Her most recent book is “Why We Need the Electoral College.” Contact Jason Jones at jason@jonesliterary.com
4.==> 5 Reasons Tom Brady is Overrated
Sports columnists and talk radio hosts have been throwing around the term ‘G.O.A.T” (greatest of all time) when referring to Tom Brady, but Larry Taunton argues that the Patriots’ quarterback is overrated. “Best passer? Best athlete? The most skilled person to ever play that position? When you listen to the arguments, it becomes clear that almost no one believes he’s any of those things. No, it usually boils down to the fact that Brady has six Super Bowl rings. The implication is that those with rings are better than those without rings, and he who has the most rings is the G.O.A.T. It’s a simple and tempting measurement of greatness. But by that logic, Trent Dilfer was better than Dan Marino, and Brad Johnson was better than Jim Kelly. Does anyone really believe that?” Larry will share five reasons Brady is overrated and why he might better deserve the nickname L.O.T.R., rather than G.O.A.T. Larry Alex Taunton is the executive director of the Fixed Point Foundation and freelance columnist contributing to USA Today, First Things, The Atlantic, CNN, and The American Spectator.

5. ==> A Solution to Football’s Concussion Problem?
NFL, college and high school football are under attack. All because of the high risk of concussions and the resulting health consequences. But what if there was a way to make concussions a thing of the past? Or at least a way to diagnose and treat traumatic brain injuries (TBI’s) more easily and quickly? Interview Paul Wand, MD, PA, to hear about the “Wand Protocol” that could do all that and more. He, along with other private practitioners, have created ways to diagnosis and treat concussions which if put into place could save the NFL, as well as other sports where concussions happen on a regular basis. Dr. Paul Wand has been a medical doctor for 35 years specializing in the field of Neurology and is the author of “The Concussion Cure: 3 Proven Methods to Heal Your Brain.” Contact him at (954) 743-5380; PWand@rtirguests.com
6. ==> Breaking News: DC Swamp Poised to Let Big Tech Kill Diversity
Americans remain unaware of the current battle in Washington, D.C., being waged by Big Tech and India that would eliminate diversity in American employment-based immigration and reward the very country monopolizing immigration to the U.S. with the majority of employment-based visas for the next decade or more. This week, Senators Mike Lee and Kamala Harris are attempting to push legislation through the Senate again that would make it impossible for the best and the brightest from any other country to legally immigrate to the U.S. for employment. For an eye-opening look at this breaking story, interview Hilarie Gamm, a national authority on the topic whose grassroots nonpartisan American Workers Coalition is pushing back against Bill S386. She can discuss why Cuban lobbyist Leon Fresco is working hard to shut out Latino’s from emigrating to the U.S. and whether President Trump will stick with his Buy American-Hire American credo or sign S386 if it is passed into law. A media favorite who recently appeared on Coast to Coast and Breitbart News Tonight, Gamm is the author of Amazon Best Seller: “Billions Lost: The American Tech Crisis and The Road Map to Change.” A respected tech veteran, working mother and patriot, she is successfully pushing labor/immigration issues into the 2020 election narrative through her continued efforts in D.C.

7. ==> Why America Needs a Robust African Foreign Policy
Americans have sent millions of dollars to help people in Africa over the decades, yet the conditions faced by many there aren’t improving. According to UNICEF, by 2050, Africa will be home to 35% of all adolescents in the world. A poorly educated, disenfranchised young population is a perfect recruiting ground for those who perpetrate evil in our world. Most of the nations of Sub-Saharan Africa have very poor, or at best, subpar healthcare systems. Eventually, this situation poses a serious threat to all mankind. Is foreign aid really the solution? Invite author, speaker, and neurosurgeon Dr. Sylvanus Ayeni, to reveal some surprising plausible solutions. As the president of Pan Africa Children Advocacy Watch, Inc., he envisions the path forward for these nations. His new book “Rescue Thyself: Change in Sub-Saharan Africa Must Come from Within” reveals what many in the West don’t understand about the root causes of Sub-Saharan Africa’s plight and the necessary steps to improve the situation.

9. ==> Where Are Most Common Superstitions Come from
Have you ever wondered why some hotels don’t have a 13th floor or why black cats are considered bad luck? Or why we say “God bless you” when someone sneezes? And how a broken mirror came to symbolize seven years of bad times ahead? Or thought twice about opening an umbrella in the house? All of these things are superstitions, and they are powerful merely because we believe them. Interview Wade Meadows who will share some theories on why these superstitions have taken root in popular culture and ways lives are sometimes ruined because of them. Wade had the misfortune of being born on a Friday the 13th to a mother who had triskaidekaphobia, the name given to people who fear the number 13. He spent many years being told that he was cursed at birth but has managed to overcome that false belief.

10. ==> Develop Your Inner Bull***t Detector!
Fake news. False social media propaganda. Government officials and leaders who lie, lie, lie. No wonder modern people feel so anxious, angry and disconnected from reality.

11. ==> How the World Gets Better When You Love Yourself
Whether it’s the man in the White House or customers in line at the grocery story, treating people with respect and kindness appears to have gone the way of the rotary phone, eight-track tapes and cursive handwriting. What’s fueling this rise in rude, boorish behavior? Joffre McClung believes it’s something very basic but profound. “Self-love, or the lack of self- love, determines not only how we see ourselves but how we experience the world around us. It’s the prism through which we see and define all things,” explains Joffre. Listeners will hear how a lack of self-love manifests and impacts our lives and learn simple ways to encourage self-appreciation and gratitude. Joffre McClung has appeared on dozens of radio and TV programs. She’s a former media producer, independent filmmaker, and the author of “The Heart of the Matter.” Contact Joffre McClung at (917) 994-0225 (TX); JMcClung@rtirguests.com

14. ==> Is a Happy Childhood Only a Myth?
When you talk to people, it becomes apparent that many folks grew up in dysfunctional families. In fact, you may wonder whether people who say they had a happy childhood are actually telling the truth to you—and themselves.

One in four women and one in seven men in the United States have experienced severe physical violence in their relationships, statistics that paint a picture of just how common domestic violence is. Dellia Evans, O.D., knows the issues associated with abusive relationships only too well having been married to a man who abused her for nearly 20 years.

16. ==> Former Prof. Shares Shocking Truths about College
During the 11 years Glen Dunzweiler spent as a college professor, he learned some profound truths. To his astonishment, he discovered that many students had no idea what they would do with their degrees or how they would pay off their student debt. They were going to school merely because people told them they needed to and because universities are highly skilled at marketing themselves. Glen is making it his mission to ensure that parents have important conversations with their children, well before the first college tour. He’ll reveal what that conversation should sound like as well as the paradoxical, self-serving way universities use tuition money to preserve their business interests to the detriment of students. He can answer such questions as what should be taught in every class that isn’t and should parents refuse to allow their children to take certain majors. Glen is a former college professor, a documentarian and the author of two books. His latest is “A Degree in Homelessness? Entrepreneurial Skills for Students.” Contact Glen at (702) 703-2219; GDunzweiler@rtirguests.com

We need programs through which men can help them to learn manhood. It will impact society for the long haul and keep boys out of trouble.” The program the Gentleman’s Club launched by South Carolina elementary school teacher Raymond Nelson is one great example. Such programs help to install boys with confidence, self-respect and respect for others. Pastor Eric can share how to mentor young fatherless boys to help them to become great men.
