HR3 Encore Presentation of May 18, 2026 (5-25-26)

5/26/2026
ENCORE PRESENTATION HOUR 1 - May 11, 2026 Colorado Politics, Media Narratives, and The Brutal Math Conservatives Don’t Want To Hear. Hour 1 of Rush to Reason turns into one of John Rush’s most direct and emotionally charged conversations in recent memory. Beginning with the shocking Frontier Airlines runway tragedy that made national headlines, John quickly shifts the conversation toward something bigger. Media manipulation. Why are words like “pedestrian” being used instead of “trespasser,” and what does that reveal about modern reporting and accountability? From there, the conversation expands to airport security, public behavior during emergencies, and the emotional fallout for pilots, passengers, and first responders. The intensity continues to build as John pivots into Iran negotiations, the collapse of international trust, and what he believes are dangerous political double standards surrounding Barack Obama and modern foreign policy. The final half of the hour becomes a passionate breakdown of Colorado’s governor race, Republican infighting, and cold political math. John challenges the conservatives who ignore voter demographics, unaffiliated voters, and election realities for emotion and loyalty. The result is a fast-moving hour filled with political strategy, frustration, media criticism, and blunt warnings about Colorado’s future. HOUR 2 - May 18, 2026 Trump, Boebert, And The Republican Battle Nobody Needed Hour 2 of Rush To Reason opens with John Rush sharing his real-world hacks for mastering time and staying productive—no to-do lists required. The spotlight then turns to Colorado politics, with hot takes on Trump’s feud with Lauren Boebert, the future of MAGA, and why the governor’s race could spell trouble for Republicans. Richard Rush jumps in to break down the Broncos’ tough season ahead, the Avalanche’s Stanley Cup hopes, and how AI is taking over NFL scheduling. You’ll also hear a review of the Toyota Corolla Cross Hybrid XSE and a no-holds-barred debate on Trump’s controversial comments about China. Timestamps 26:53 - Richard Rush - Sports and Automotive Analysis 42:28 - Toyota Corolla Cross Hybrid XSE Review HOUR 3 - May 18, 2026 Faith, Freedom, Political Reality, And The Fracturing Of Colorado Republicans. Hour 3 of Rush To Reason opens with a compelling conversation about faith and America’s founding, as John Rush and author Cynthia Scott dig into the spiritual roots of the Constitution and why the nation’s 250th birthday is about more than fireworks. The hour then heats up with fiery takes on Colorado’s governor’s race, Republican infighting, and how third-party candidates could upend the political landscape. Listener calls and debates tackle Trump, rising gas prices, and the realities facing conservatives in 2026.

HR1 Big Pharma & The Collapse of Medical Trust: Vaccines, Statins, & Hidden Agendas (5-21-26)

5/22/2026
Join the Conversation at 303-477-5600 or text to 307-200-8222 Monday - Friday from 3 pm - 6 pm MT. https://RushToReason.com HOUR 1 Health Fears, Government Distrust, And The Battle Over Who Controls Your Health. Hour 1 of Rush To Reason examines America’s growing distrust of its healthcare institutions, government agencies, and pharmaceutical systems. John Rush, Dr. Kelly Victory, and Steve House open with Ebola fears, media panic cycles, and the possibility of public fear campaigns driving headlines over science. The conversation quickly deepens: Are Americans being told the full truth about vaccines, pharmaceuticals, food additives, and public health policies? The hour explores controversial topics, including tick-borne illnesses, alpha-gal syndrome, FDA oversight, prescription drug pricing, statins, vaccine testing, and political influence within health agencies. Dr. Kelly questions the conventional thinking on cholesterol, statin use and modern medicine’s dependence on pharmaceuticals, while Steve House questions whether Americans can still trust the systems designed to protect them. The conversation also examines Mark Cuban’s support of lower prescription drug costs and whether the future of healthcare depends more on personal responsibility than government intervention. By the end of the hour, one unsettling question demands an answer: In an era of confusion and competing interests, who can you trust with your health? Dr. Kelly Victory - https://www.rushtoreason.com/dr-kelly-victory-2/ HOUR 2 Artificial Intelligence, Family Values, And The Cultural Battles Reshaping America. Hour 2 of Rush To Reason is a rollercoaster of hot-button issues and spirited debate you won’t want to miss. The stakes are high as John Rush kicks things off with attorney and law enforcement advocate Lance LaRusso, diving into the unsettling world of AI-generated deepfakes and the chaos they could unleash on our justice system. Can we still trust what we see and hear? As technology blurs the line between truth and fiction, the hour exposes the cracks forming in media credibility, public confidence, and the very foundation of justice. But that’s just the beginning. The tension escalates with shocking NASCAR news; rumors swirl about the reported death of Kyle Busch, before the show dives headfirst into the high-stakes world of political strategy, campaign chaos, and the influence of celebrities on public opinion. Katie Faust brings the heat as she and John tackle the most controversial questions about family, gender ideology, and the forces reshaping America’s core values. All this, plus a spirited takedown of Marxist narratives, climate change debates, and a lighthearted close with automotive tips and Drive Radio success stories. This hour is packed with drama, insight, and moments that will have you questioning everything you thought you knew about where our country is headed.

Join the Conversation at 303-477-5600 or text to 307-200-8222 Monday - Friday from 3 pm - 6 pm MT. https://RushToReason.com HOUR 1 Fear, Distrust, And The Hidden Costs Behind America’s Healthcare And Government Systems. Hour 1 of Rush To Reason takes a hard look at two growing realities shaping modern America: fear-driven public health messaging and a healthcare system many people no longer trust. John Rush is joined by Dr. Kelly Victory (https://x.com/DrKellyVictory) and Steve House for a wide-ranging conversation that begins with the recent Hantavirus headlines tied to Antarctica. Is this a legitimate health concern, or another attempt to test public fear and compliance? The discussion explores quarantine policies, vaccine pipelines, media narratives, and the lingering fallout from COVID-era distrust. But the hour goes even deeper. Senate hearings involving Rand Paul, questions surrounding government transparency, and concerns over gain-of-function research fuel a broader conversation about accountability and manipulation. Next, the show exposes the hidden traps of healthcare pricing—revealing why you might pay less in cash than with insurance, and how to avoid getting blindsided by outrageous medical bills. Discover insider tips that could save you thousands. The result is a thought-provoking hour that asks a larger question: how much of modern life is driven by information, and how much is driven by fear? HOUR 2 Global Power Shifts, Communist Collapse, And The Growing Cost Of Government Bloat. Hour 2 moves from global geopolitical tensions to frustrations much closer to home. John is joined by Jim Pfaff for a wide-ranging discussion about President Trump’s negotiations with China, Taiwan, Iran, Brazil, and Cuba. Is China really the unstoppable superpower the media portrays, or is the communist regime far weaker than most Americans realize? The conversation explores collapsing economies, energy dependence, rare earth minerals, communist influence in South America, and why leaders like Lula in Brazil and the Cuban regime are facing increasing instability. Then John ignites a lively debate on America’s energy future, challenging whether wind and solar can truly power our nation—and why nuclear energy may be the missed opportunity of a generation. Cuba’s ongoing power crisis is serving as a wake-up call. The conversation then takes aim at government bloat and waste, exposing outrageous taxpayer-funded programs—from dental care for meth addicts in LA to Boulder’s overstaffed city departments. It’s a no-holds-barred look at who really profits as government keeps expanding—and who pays the price. Guest Timestamps 1:10 — Jim Pfaff — https://theconservativecaucus.com HOUR 3 Political Narratives, Global Tensions, And The Economic Battles Shaping America’s Future. Don’t miss Hour 3 of Rush To Reason, where John teams up with Jerzee Joe and Scott Garliss for a fast-paced ride through culture, politics, and global strategy. Starting with witty takes on intelligent design and the unique “Lox and Loaded” firearms group, sparks soon fly as the conversation dives deep into the political battles and economic shakeups shaping Colorado and beyond. Controversial topics take center stage—from voter ID laws to redistricting, media narratives, and the high-stakes debate over Colorado’s spending priorities. With Senator Michael Bennet’s criticism of TABOR in the spotlight, John breaks down whether Colorado’s real issues come from a lack of revenue or runaway spending. Scott Garliss brings a global edge—dissecting Iran, China, oil, AI, and the exploding demand for NVIDIA chips. From nuclear submarines surfacing near Gibraltar to the race for AI dominance, get an inside look at the forces reshaping our world. Tune in for a provocative hour that asks: Who will control the future—those who innovate, or those who spend?
