Rush To Reason

Encore Presentation of Hour 1 for February 12, 2026 HOUR 1 Hour 1 of Rush To Reason opens with intensity as John Rush is joined by Dr. Kelly Victory, an independent physician known for challenging mainstream medical narratives. Together, they tackle explosive questions about medical ethics, patient trust, and whether ideology is creeping into health care decisions. Can patients be treated differently based on political beliefs—and who holds providers accountable if that happens? The conversation pivots to a disturbing trend: the sharp rise in aggressive colon cancer among adults under 50. Why now? Dr. Victory breaks down immune dysfunction, delayed screening guidelines, and why early detection may matter more than ever. They also explore vaccines through a strict risk-versus-benefit lens, questioning long-term effects, unresolved scientific gaps, and why so many questions were never answered before mandates rolled out. As the hour closes, the focus shifts to personal choice versus government control, including whether states should set their own vaccine rules—and what that could mean for families deciding where to live. Is the public finally asking the questions it should have asked years ago? Encore Presentation of Hour 1 for February 12, 2026 HOUR 2 Hour 1 of https://RushToReason.com opens with a bold challenge: are we being told the full truth about our health—or just the convenient version? John Rush is joined by Dr. Kelly Victory, an independent physician and nationally recognized public health expert, for a wide-ranging and provocative conversation. Should some prescription drugs—like antibiotics—be available over the counter? Would it lower costs and restore patient freedom, or create new risks? Then the discussion pivots to hormone replacement therapy. Is declining testosterone or estrogen just “normal aging,” or are people suffering unnecessarily? And how do you pursue hormone therapy safely—without falling for clinic hype? The hour turns more intense as they examine rising cancer rates, particularly in younger adults. Is it a coincidence, lifestyle, COVID itself, or the mRNA shots? Dr. Kelly outlines concerns about immune disruption, lipid nanoparticles, and batch inconsistencies. What can people do now? Are antibody tests and certain supplements worth considering? If you’ve ever felt like key details are missing from the mainstream narrative, this episode asks the hard questions—without apology.

HOUR 1 Encore Presentation of Hour 1 February 11, 2025 On this Health & Wellness Wednesday episode of Rush To Reason, John Rush asks questions most people avoid—until it’s too late. John explores how everyday choices quietly shape long-term outcomes, from skin health to cancer prevention. Leo Park, CEO of Soul Beauty Club (https://www.seoulbeautyclub.com/), challenges Western skincare thinking, explaining why Korean beauty focuses on hydration, skin-barrier health, and long-term routines—not quick fixes. Why are men increasingly paying attention too? And are Americans damaging their skin by doing too much, too soon? Then the conversation deepens with oncologist Dr. Francisco Contreras, Director of Oasis of Hope Hospital (https://www.oasisofhope.com/), who delivers a surprising message: cancer is not just about genetics—it’s about lifestyle. Can happiness, real food, and movement dramatically lower cancer risk? Why do developed countries see higher cancer rates? And what happens when conventional medicine is combined with natural therapies instead of competing with them? This hour doesn’t offer hype—it offers perspective. If you think health is something you “deal with later,” this conversation may change that mindset entirely.

Financial expert Al Smith of Golden Eagle Financial (https://goldeneaglefinancialltd.com/) joins the show to unpack a critical question: can AI really guide your retirement and risk planning, or is it dangerously incomplete without human insight? How much risk is right at 50, 60, or 70—and why is “one-size-fits-all” such a trap? The hour then takes a powerful, personal turn as John and Luke Cashman tackle mental health, responsibility, and resilience, sharing real-life experiences about pressure, inherited depression, short fuses, and learning how to manage life’s “dark clouds.” What’s the difference between having a bad day and true clinical depression—and why do these conversations matter more than we admit? Health expert Dr. Julie Gatz of Florida Wellness Institute (https://naturessources.com/dr-julie-gatza/) rounds out the hour with eye-opening insights into aging, digestion, brain health, and nutrition. Why do meals suddenly feel heavier as we age? Are we overfed—but undernourished? And could decades of dietary advice have missed something essential to our hormones and mental clarity? This hour challenges assumptions—and invites listeners to rethink health from the inside out.

Guest hosts Andy Peth and Tanner Coleman, joined by Ashley Carter, take the mic for a fast-moving and thought-provoking Hour 1 of https://RushToReason.com, blending humor, cultural commentary, and serious political analysis ahead of a high-stakes State of the Union address. What does America actually want to hear right now—and more importantly, what are voters tired of hearing? Drawing on perspectives from younger Americans, the conversation explores unity, leadership tone, media influence, and why political messaging may be missing the mark. Should Donald Trump lean into confrontation, or would calm leadership and authenticity resonate more with voters heading into the midterms? The hosts debate immigration narratives, public perception, economic concerns, and generational expectations, asking whether optimism and shared national identity could shift the political climate. Andy Peth even outlines his own vision for a winning speech—centered on patriotism, progress, and common ground—sparking a lively exchange about what leadership should sound like in a divided era. Is this a roadmap for political success… or a missed opportunity waiting to happen? If you want insight into how everyday Americans—especially younger voices—are interpreting today’s political moment, this hour delivers questions you won’t stop thinking about. HOUR 2 Guest hosts Andy Peth and Tanner Coleman, joined by Ashley Carter, dive into one of the most challenging political questions of today: Why do young voters and independents seem so difficult for conservatives to reach—and is that perception wrong? Through candid discussion and generational insight, the hosts explore how culture, education, media narratives, and personal identity shape political loyalty long before adulthood. Is the divide really about policy—or about trust, perception, and feeling controlled? The conversation examines why many young Americans see one party as restrictive while viewing the other as liberating, even when real-world policies suggest something different. Caller Brett from Thornton joins the show, adding perspective on economic expectations, class messaging, and how early beliefs about success and ownership influence political attitudes. But the hour doesn’t stop at diagnosis. Andy Peth introduces a surprising strategy: stop trying to “win” debates and instead lower hostility by recognizing shared motives first. Could empathy and understanding succeed where arguments fail? If political conversations feel impossible today, this hour asks the question everyone is thinking—are we talking to each other the wrong way? HOUR 3 Guest hosts Andy Peth and Tanner Coleman welcome recurring guest Jerzee Joe (host of the Jerzee Joe Podcast) for a fast-moving hour blending humor, political strategy, and headline analysis. The conversation begins with a behind-the-scenes look at the State of the Union: can one speech reshape public perception, and does tone matter more than policy? Andy and Jerzee Joe debate whether leadership today requires confrontation—or calm confidence aimed at persuading the middle. The discussion then shifts to major stories flying under the radar: alleged pay-to-play political access in Colorado, media fairness questions involving The View and FCC equal-time rules, and workplace controversies tied to discrimination and DEI policies. They also examine gig-economy legislation targeting Amazon drivers and ask whether regulation helps workers or quietly raises costs for everyone. The hour closes with a troubling immigration fraud case involving fake lawyers and judges, raising a larger question: are broken systems creating opportunities for exploitation? From national politics to local investigations, this hour challenges listeners to look beyond headlines and ask what’s really happening behind the scenes.

HOUR 1 John Rush takes the day off as Andy Peth steps in alongside Tanner Coleman for a fast-moving hour packed with controversy, constitutional debate, and a dose of automotive nostalgia. The show opens with a deep dive into the Mar-a-Lago shooting and the growing public demand to release the Epstein files — but is the push for immediate transparency creating unintended consequences? Andy challenges listeners to think about the chain of custody, misinformation, and how outrage spreads in the age of AI and viral narratives. The conversation then shifts to the Supreme Court’s tariff ruling against Donald Trump, raising a bigger question: Did the decision weaken America’s negotiating power on the world stage? Andy argues that global trade is a high-stakes negotiation — and asks whether a divided Congress can ever compete with unified foreign governments. As tensions cool, Hour 1 pivots into classic Rush To Reason fun with the Question of the Day, sparking nostalgia over muscle cars, vintage rides, and the golden eras of automotive design. Serious politics meets everyday culture — but which issues will shape America’s future the most? HOUR 2 Hour 2 finds Andy Peth and Tanner Coleman diving headfirst into Colorado political drama before shifting into high-energy sports debate with Richard Rush. The hour opens with a controversial discussion surrounding Donald Trump’s endorsement change in Colorado’s CD3 race, as Andy questions whether loyalty, judgment, and electability are colliding inside the Republican Party. A bizarre online controversy involving anonymous accounts, legal claims, and unanswered questions raises a central question: How much credibility matters when elections are razor close? The conversation then pivots to national pride through sports, as Richard Rush joins to break down Team USA’s emotional hockey victory and what beating Canada meant culturally. Should championship teams visit the White House, and do modern athletes view patriotism differently? The hosts also debated whether ESPN should replace Sunday Night Baseball with women’s sports programming — a bold media gamble or the future of sports viewership? From political infighting to Olympic-level pride and the upcoming NFL Combine, Hour 2 blends controversy, humor, and spirited debate. HOUR 3 Hour 3 brings a lively and candid exchange as Andy Peth welcomes returning guest Jerzee Joe for a wide-ranging discussion blending politics, strategy, and energy policy. The hour opens with snowstorms on the East Coast before pivoting into a deeper political question: is Donald Trump’s communication style helping his agenda — or pushing away the independent voters who decide elections? Andy and Jerzee Joe debate leadership tone, Supreme Court dynamics, and whether personality can outweigh policy victories in modern politics. The conversation then shifts to Colorado’s CD3 race, where endorsement decisions spark concerns about electability and party strategy. From there, the hour turns sharply toward energy economics, as Jerzee Joe breaks down renewable power reliability, electricity costs, and the hidden realities of backup generation. Are wind and solar lowering prices — or quietly increasing them? The discussion expands into electric mandates, grid efficiency, and ethanol’s ripple effects on food costs.

HOUR 1 Hour 1 of https://RushToReason.com opens with a bold challenge: are we being told the full truth about our health—or just the convenient version? John Rush is joined by Dr. Kelly Victory, an independent physician and nationally recognized public health expert, for a wide-ranging and provocative conversation. Should some prescription drugs—like antibiotics—be available over the counter? Would it lower costs and restore patient freedom, or create new risks? Then the discussion pivots to hormone replacement therapy. Is declining testosterone or estrogen just “normal aging,” or are people suffering unnecessarily? And how do you pursue hormone therapy safely—without falling for clinic hype? The hour turns more intense as they examine rising cancer rates, particularly in younger adults. Is it a coincidence, lifestyle, COVID itself, or the mRNA shots? Dr. Kelly outlines concerns about immune disruption, lipid nanoparticles, and batch inconsistencies. What can people do now?

Alvin shares a provocative role-play and a six-month social experiment designed to expose what he believes are manipulative debate tactics. How do you avoid getting dragged into the “swamp” and losing moral clarity? Then John pivots to media accountability. With the FCC reportedly scrutinizing The View over equal-time rules, what exactly is the Fairness Doctrine—and could it apply to late-night hosts, too? If one political candidate gets airtime, should the opponent automatically get the same? The hour closes with strong commentary on circumcision, religious doctrine, and a viral controversy involving an Islamic scholar condemning dog ownership. Are we witnessing cultural confusion—or a deeper ideological shift? If you care about free speech, faith, media bias, and parental authority, this hour demands your attention. Guest Timestamps * 1:17 – Alvin Louie - https://courageisahabit.org HOUR 3 Hour 3 opens with Jerzee Joe delivering a sharp economic perspective: Why do nations with the same geography end up worlds apart economically? From Haiti vs. the Dominican Republic to East vs. West Berlin, is government the defining factor between prosperity and collapse? The conversation intensifies with analysis of media silence surrounding controversial political rhetoric, questions about crime trends, and ongoing investigations tied to Black Lives Matter leadership. Are Americans getting the full story—or just curated headlines? Then, energy policy takes center stage as Kenny Stein, Vice President of Policy at the American Energy Alliance and the Institute for Energy Research, joins the program. What did the Trump administration actually roll back in EPA regulations? Were EV mandates quietly being imposed through regulatory backdoors? Why are hybrid vehicles outperforming fully electric models in a true free-market environment? And did Toyota outsmart Detroit by refusing to chase political trends? From governance and urban decline to energy freedom and the realities of the auto industry, this hour challenges narratives and asks: What happens when policy overrides the marketplace?

HOUR 1 Hour 1 of https://RushToReason.com opens with a bold challenge: are we being told the full truth about our health—or just the convenient version? John Rush is joined by Dr. Kelly Victory, an independent physician and nationally recognized public health expert, for a wide-ranging and provocative conversation. Should some prescription drugs—like antibiotics—be available over the counter? Would it lower costs and restore patient freedom, or create new risks? Then the discussion pivots to hormone replacement therapy. Is declining testosterone or estrogen just “normal aging,” or are people suffering unnecessarily? And how do you pursue hormone therapy safely—without falling for clinic hype? The hour turns more intense as they examine rising cancer rates, particularly in younger adults. Is it a coincidence, lifestyle, COVID itself, or the mRNA shots? Dr. Kelly outlines concerns about immune disruption, lipid nanoparticles, and batch inconsistencies. What can people do now? Are antibody tests and certain supplements worth considering? If you’ve ever felt like key details are missing from the mainstream narrative, this episode asks the hard questions—without apology.

HOUR 1 Hour 1 of Rush To Reason dives straight into Health and Wellness Wednesday, blending financial clarity, mental resilience, and physical health in a way only John Rush can. Financial expert Al Smith of Golden Eagle Financial (https://goldeneaglefinancialltd.com/) joins the show to unpack a critical question: can AI really guide your retirement and risk planning, or is it dangerously incomplete without human insight? How much risk is right at 50, 60, or 70—and why is “one-size-fits-all” such a trap? The hour then takes a powerful, personal turn as John and Luke Cashman tackle mental health, responsibility, and resilience, sharing real-life experiences about pressure, inherited depression, short fuses, and learning how to manage life’s “dark clouds.” What’s the difference between having a bad day and true clinical depression—and why do these conversations matter more than we admit? Health expert Dr. Julie Gatz of Florida Wellness Institute (https://naturessources.com/dr-julie-gatza/) rounds out the hour with eye-opening insights into aging, digestion, brain health, and nutrition. Why do meals suddenly feel heavier as we age? Are we overfed—but undernourished? And could decades of dietary advice have missed something essential to our hormones and mental clarity? This hour challenges assumptions—and invites listeners to rethink health from the inside out. Guest Timestamps * Al Smith – Golden Eagle Financial: 2:18 * Luke Cashman - Mental Health: 11:21 * Dr. Julie Gatz – Florida Wellness Institute: 30:34 HOUR 2 Hour 2 of Rush To Reason opens with a powerful history lesson as Richard Battle (Https://RichardBattle.com), makes the case for restoring George Washington’s Birthday as a standalone national holiday. Why has America blurred the legacy of its greatest leader—and what do we lose when Washington’s character, sacrifice, and refusal of power are forgotten? Battle explains why Washington remains unmatched. The hour intensifies as Sunny Kutcher of Young Americans Against Socialism (https://yaas.org) joins John Rush for a hard-hitting discussion on free childcare, public education, Marxism, and government overreach. Is “free” ever really free—and who ultimately pays the price? Using New York City as a test case, they break down massive budgets, rising taxes, and political promises that don’t add up. How do fear-based narratives spread so easily, and what happens when facts are ignored? This hour challenges history, culture, and power—and asks listeners to decide where government should stop.

What’s real, what’s flat-out false. The conversation widens into media bias, algorithm-driven news feeds, and the collapse of critical thinking, asking how democracy survives when headlines replace facts. The hour then pivots to aviation safety and merit, as John takes on DEI hiring in the cockpit and reacts to Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy’s warning: competence matters when lives are on the line. Are airlines lowering standards—and should passengers be concerned? Economic reality follows as Scott Garliss of Bent Pine Capital (https://www.bentpinecapital.com/) explains why inflation is cooling, inventories are piling up, and why high interest rates—not tariffs—are crushing discretionary spending.

John Rush and Andy Peth dive into a Rhode Island shooting that John argues hasn’t been fully scrutinized—and ask why certain details seem to vanish from the national conversation. From there, the discussion expands into mental health, accountability, and whether ideology is replacing honest diagnosis in moments of crisis. A key turning point comes with listener calls that raise uncomfortable but timely questions: What happens when courts, insurance companies, and malpractice risk start driving decisions faster than politics? Could lawsuits—and not legislation—be the real force that changes the system? And why do parents and students feel pressured into silence in schools when they disagree? The hour also pivots to real-world danger closer to home, as deadly wind-driven accidents on Colorado highways highlight how denial of weather, risk, or reality—can turn tragic fast. By the end of the hour, John challenges listeners on both sides of the aisle: are we willing to confront hard truths, or will we keep blaming tools instead of addressing the people and systems failing in plain sight? HOUR 2 Hour 2 of Rush To Reason zeroes in on power, accountability, and who really controls the system. John Rush and Andy Peth are joined by Mark Mix of the National Right to Work Committee (https://nrtwc.org/), who breaks down why Virginia’s move to expand public-sector union power could have sweeping consequences nationwide. From rising taxpayer costs to unions acting as unelected power brokers, Mark explains why government unions are fundamentally different from private ones—and why voters often have no real leverage. The hour then pivots to election integrity as Priscilla Rahn joins the conversation to walk listeners through the SAVE Act. She tackles claims that voter ID laws suppress women and minorities, explains what the bill actually requires, and argues that restoring trust—not restricting access—is the real goal. The discussion widens to messaging failures, young voter confusion, and why fear-based narratives may be driving people away from the ballot box altogether. If confidence in elections is broken, can participation survive—and who benefits when voters stay home? Guest Timestamps * Mark Mix (National Right to Work Committee) — 1:10 * Priscilla Rahn (KLTT Radio Host) — 44:40 HOUR 3 Hour 3 of Rush To Reason opens with a sharp clash over gun rights, mental illness, and constitutional limits, as John Rush and Andy Peth respond to listener pushback and challenge what they see as selective logic on public safety and freedom. From there, the hour pivots into a bold defense of the two-party system, arguing that fragmentation and “purity politics” weaken conservatives while collectivists consolidate power. Drawing on examples from Europe, Israel, and Colorado, John explains why fewer choices can actually protect individual liberty. The conversation then shifts to Colorado legislation that could legalize prostitution statewide, sparking an unusually nuanced debate. John and Andy weigh personal liberty against cultural fallout, marriage stability, addiction, public health, and how law-enforcement resources are really being used. A call from Andrew in Greeley adds another layer—raising questions about taxpayer responsibility and unintended consequences. Are conservatives fighting this issue with the wrong arguments? And when one side controls every lever of power, does the debate even matter anymore?
