ROUNDTABLE: Major SCOTUS Leak Rocks the Political World ahead of Midterms

The Supreme Court was perhaps the last institution in America that was leak proof. And yet, this week, on the heels of what was sure to be a massive decision regarding Roe v. Wade - a draft of Justice Alito's opinion was leaked. The left has seemingly chosen to ignore any danger in leaking this draft, and continues its attack on the Court and its legitimacy. Calls to abolish the filibuster, pack the Court or institute term limits already ring out. On today's show we dive into the leak, and what it could mean for the Midterms and the abortion issue moving forward. We also get into the Ohio Senate Race, the "Disinformation Czar" and the Kentucky Derby! 

ROUNDTABLE: Cancel Student Loan Debt? Flyover Country Says ’No.’

Big week of news! Moving more towards his progressive colleagues, President Biden now seems primed to take action on "cancelling" some student loan debt. Terrible idea or just bad idea? The team goes back and forth on the idea of cancellation, and why folks in Flyover Country will hate it. All of this happens as Elon Musk takes over Twitter and we go through our hopes of what he changes. We wrap up with some new polling on young voters - and surprisingly - they don't like either party or Biden! Join us on this week's Flyover Country roundtable podcast! 

ROUNDTABLE: New Rules - Masks Off, Shoes On, No Singing

Rejoice! No more masks on planes...for now? On this week's Flyover Country roundtable podcast - the team discusses the news of a Federal Judge throwing out the mask mandates on planes and public transit, and the Biden admin's reaction. Scott says the Left is losing it as they double down on masks, wokeness and craziness. We've got people singing on planes, Libs of TikTok gets doxxed and Ron DeSantis continues his crusade against Disney World. All that and more on today's Flyover Country! Listen now!

From Dawson Springs to DC and Beyond: The Scott Jennings Story

Scott Jennings did not alway see himself as a political pundit who would work in the White House and appear regularly on CNN. Growing up in a small town in west Kentucky with a passion for writing and journalism, it would not take long before Scott was deep in the world of political campaign and public affairs. On today's show, Joe Arnold talks with our podcast's namesake, Scott Jennings, through his life growing up in a small, poor town to his first big break, and now the great places his career takes him. Join us as we weave our way through the life of Scott Jennings. 

COLUMN: Biden needs to remember ’the words of a president matter’

Last week, Oval Office staff walked back the words of President Biden several times. While the world listened to his words on Ukraine, unnamed staff made sure to walk him back as much as they could. While some of the words may have been "gaffes" - others felt more real. In his latest column, Scott Jennings takes on the President's latest mix ups and reminds us 'the words of a president matter.'
