On this special Veterans Day 2026 broadcast of The Bill Bunkley Show, host Bill Bunkley opens with a heartfelt tribute to all who have served—living and deceased—dedicating the program to his own parents, Laura Aurora Bunkley and Walter Gervin Bunkley Sr., both World War II Army Air Corps veterans. Drawing from the history of Armistice Day and the evolution of Veterans Day, Bunkley challenges listeners to teach the next generation the true cost of freedom. He shares the powerful (and heartbreaking) final interview of 101-year-old British naval veteran Alec Penstone, who questioned whether the sacrifices of World War II were “worth it” given the erosion of freedoms in modern Britain. Callers, including John from Nyack, New York, offer emotional gratitude for America’s warriors and warn against forgetting the nation’s exceptional history. The program also highlights recent comments from Supreme Court Justices Neil Gorsuch, Brett Kavanaugh, and Amy Coney Barrett urging civic education and active participation to preserve the founding principles for the next 250 years. Blending personal family history, caller perspectives, faith-rooted reflection, and a sober look at cultural and political challenges, this episode is both a tribute and a call to remember why veterans fought—and what is still at stake.

Veterans Day 2026: Honoring Sacrifice, Remembering Why Freedom Matters

On this November 10, 2026 edition of The Bill Bunkley Show, host Bill Bunkley returns from the Florida Baptist Convention Annual Meeting to deliver a sober “briefing” on the recent midterm elections. He shares the top question he faced repeatedly from pastors and attendees: “What do you think?” Bunkley highlights the election of 252 socialists and a significant number of Muslim candidates, framing it as a “camel’s nose under the tent” and citing Pastor Jack Hibbs’ stark assessment that “our republic ended on Tuesday.” He discusses concerns about Texas shifting left, the long-term strategy of demographic and cultural change, the failure of many evangelicals to treat the election as urgent, and the broader clash of cultures playing out in America and Europe. Callers weigh in passionately on immigration, legacy media, assimilation, and whether multiculturalism fractures societies. In the second half, the tone turns constructive as Bunkley spotlights Hillsborough County’s 10th annual Veterans Outreach Court. He interviews Judge Darrell Manning (U.S. Army Lt. Col., Ret.), who helped nearly 40 veterans resolve outstanding misdemeanor warrants, fines, and license issues in a single day at Veterans Memorial Park. Over the court’s decade-long history, more than $343,000 in fines and fees have been waived and hundreds of veterans assisted—giving men and women who served a practical “hand up” just ahead of Veterans Day.

the Midterm Wake-Up Call: Socialists, Cultural Clashes, and the Fight for America’s Future — Plus Veterans Outreach Court

In this special pre-recorded edition of The Bill Bunkley Show from November 9, 2026, host Bill Bunkley delivers a timely word of encouragement to evangelical Christians and conservatives still processing the midterm election results. Broadcasting while on assignment at the Florida Baptist Convention in Orlando, Bunkley acknowledges the surprise, overwhelm, and discouragement many felt, then redirects listeners to the unshakable power available through Jesus Christ and the Holy Spirit. He urges believers to limit news consumption, reclaim personal mission through prayer, volunteering, exercise, reading, and healthy hobbies, and refuse to stay glued to the 24/7 news cycle. The heart of the program is a rich conversation with Dr. David Jeremiah about his new book The Battle for Your Soul, exploring how to distinguish spiritual warfare from everyday struggles, common misconceptions about Satan, the spiritual weapons God has given every believer, the danger of legalism in spiritual disciplines, how parents can prepare children for the battle, the unique pressures facing pastors, and practical strategies for holding firmly to your identity in Christ when shame, guilt, or discouragement try to take hold. The show also features a live interview with Joe Manzione of First Christian Mortgage, who walks through specialized lending options designed for self-employed borrowers—including programs that require no tax returns, bank-statement loans (12 & 24 months), profit-and-loss statements, 1099s, purchase and cash-out refinances, standalone second mortgages, and HELOCs. The episode closes with a forward-looking perspective on the political road ahead and a call to keep praying for leaders and the nation.

Post-Election Hope, Spiritual Warfare & Self-Employed Mortgage Solutions | Bill Bunkley Show with Dr. David Jeremiah & Joe Manzione

Bill Bunkley opens this Friday edition reflecting on the midterm election results and a surprisingly strong jobs report: the economy added 165,000 jobs in October (far above the 65,000 expected), with significant upward revisions for prior months and the unemployment rate at 4.1%. He argues the Trump economy is booming and that achievements outweigh mistakes, while criticizing voters who focused on personality over policy.

White House news: Chief of Staff Suzy Wiles is resigning, with Stephen Miller stepping into the role amid a more confrontational landscape with Democrats controlling Congress.

Caller Todd weighs in on the election, Florida results, Iran strategy, and future Republican leadership. Bill also notes James Carville calling Ron DeSantis the Republican “winner” of the midterms.

In a somber segment, federal authorities arrest Thomas Markle (Meghan Markle’s father) in Florida on child pornography charges involving materials recovered from storage units.

Emily Chow (Focus on the Family / Plugged In) discusses slowing down and stepping back from social media.

Dr. Ted Baehr (Movie Guide) reviews the faith-filled Revolutionary War musical Drummer Boy, issues strong cautions on the new Cat in the Hat remake, recommends Silver Bells at Christmas, and covers related articles, while noting it is Lily Baehr’s birthday.

Strong Jobs Report After Midterms, Stephen Miller Named Chief of Staff & Movie Guide Reviews

On this Thursday, November 5, 2026 edition of The Bill Bunkley Show (The Briefing) on Salem Radio / Faith Talk Tampa, host Bill Bunkley opens with updated details on the deadly workplace violence at the Citigroup complex in Brandon, Florida. Orlando man Jacob Pearson, 35, drove to the campus after a phone threat over a $2,500 delinquent Citibank credit-card summons, crashed through barriers, fatally shot 41-year-old learning advisor Leanne Selman, and was stopped inside the cafeteria by Citibank security officer and Marine veteran John Fraley, who engaged and killed the gunman. Bunkley praises the armed response that prevented a larger mass-casualty event and ties the incident to broader cultural stress, the need for personal responsibility, and the biblical principle of “turning the other cheek” while also affirming the right of trained citizens to defend life.

He then interviews Fritz Steiger, author of the new book Divine Disruption 2.0: Restoring America to God’s Providence. Steiger shares his journey from a Wyoming ranch to working closely with Sam Walton (founding the Walmart Foundation and corporate affairs), his near-death plane experience with Walton, and his decades of public-policy work with the Texas Public Policy Foundation, Children First America, and the Justice Foundation. The conversation centers on God’s “divine disruptions,” the Seven Mountain Mandate, the crisis of faith in America after the midterm results, the need for Christians to re-engage culture, family, education, business, media, and government, and practical study-guide resources in the book for small groups.

Bunkley follows with breaking market news: the Dow closed down roughly 1,800–1,844 points, the Nasdaq fell into correction territory (down ~5.4% and 10% off its recent high), and the S&P 500 dropped over 4%, with heavy selling in AI, semiconductor, and data-center related stocks amid investor fears of a Democrat-controlled Congress slowing the AI build-out. He frames the sell-off as a delayed reaction to the midterm results.

The final segment is a pointed “Something to Think About” commentary aimed at evangelical Christians and conservatives who stayed home on Election Day. Bunkley argues that non-voting was effectively a vote that helped elect radical left, socialist, and Islamist candidates, that the shift is within historical midterm norms in seat count but consequential because of the ideology now gaining footholds, and that Florida’s relative resilience was aided by Amendment 3 turnout. He discusses the Hispanic vote, border-county shifts, Texas results, the importance of block voting one’s values the way other groups do, and repeatedly urges listeners to “get off the bench,” vote in every election, focus on issues over personalities, and recover intentional Christian civic engagement. Callers weigh in on disappointment with Trump on prices and foreign policy, the Hispanic and Muslim voting patterns, and cultural threats. The show closes with a call to wake up, stay engaged, and vote biblical values.

Citibank Workplace Shooting Update, Fritz Steiger on “Divine Disruption 2.0,” Market Plunge After Midterms & Why Evangelicals and Conservatives Staying Home Put Radicals in OfficeLong Descriptive Paragraph:

On the day after what host Bill Bunkley calls the “great massacre” of November 4, 2026, The Bill Bunkley Show delivers a raw postmortem with longtime political consultant Mark Proctor. While Democrats seized control of the U.S. House and Senate in a sweeping blue wave driven by high turnout, independent voters swinging hard left, migration from blue states, block voting, and classic midterm backlash, Florida Republicans narrowly retained the governorship, cabinet, and legislative supermajorities—thanks in part to strong support for Amendment 3’s homestead tax relief. Bunkley and Proctor dig into the “Kathy Castor effect” that flipped Hillsborough County, low Republican and Christian turnout, Trump fatigue over style and pocketbook issues (gas prices, Iran involvement, economic promises), and the growing power of unaffiliated voters. The show also covers breaking local news of a targeted workplace shooting at the Citibank complex in Sabal Park, where a suspect crashed a vehicle into a lunch area, killed one person, and was fatally shot by an armed security guard amid a massive multi-agency response. Listener calls add perspective on media bias, Muslim block voting in Michigan, Hispanic shifts in Texas, and the danger of staying home in midterms, before the program closes with practical Medicare open-enrollment guidance and a faith-centered reminder that God remains on the throne.

Election Day 2026 Special Edition: Vote Your Values, Not Personalities | Brian Kilmeade on “Uniting the States

On the day before the crucial 2026 midterm elections, Bill Bunkley delivers an urgent “Vote, Vote, Vote” call to action across Central Florida, sharing early-voting and mail-ballot numbers, urging historic turnout among conservatives and Bible-believing Christians, and directing listeners to his county-by-county recommendations for Hernando, Pasco, Pinellas, Hillsborough, Polk, Manatee, and Sarasota. He sits down with Florida Chief Financial Officer Blaise Ingoglia for a deep dive into the state’s DOGE-style audits that have uncovered billions in local-government waste, nearly 1,400 arrests for financial crimes, successful insurance tort reform that has driven rates down and drawn policies out of Citizens, and a strong yes recommendation on Amendment 3 for expanded homestead exemption and property-tax relief. In the second hour the show shifts to a powerful community story: the opening of MercyMed, a brand-new free Christian medical clinic in Tampa’s Sulphur Springs neighborhood. Former Idlewild Baptist pastor Ken Witten, board member Kristen Washington, and longtime family physician Dr. Michael Cromer share the four-year vision, the staggering local need (high child poverty, medical debt, and lack of insurance), the clinic’s location at 7921 North 40th Street, eligibility guidelines, volunteer opportunities for doctors, nurses, PAs, EMTs and others, and how listeners can donate or get involved at mercymedtampa.com.

Bill Bunkley returns from a family retreat in the Smoky Mountains on this Friday edition, reflecting on the anniversary of his brother Walter G. “Buzz” Bunkley’s home-going and the state of the nation just days before the midterm elections.

He praises the Tampa Bay Rays for a classy run that ended against the Milwaukee Brewers in the World Series, highlighting manager Kevin Cash and the strong Christian character on both teams.

The core of the show is an urgent call to vote on Tuesday: Bill stresses the high stakes for America’s future as a constitutional republic, urges theologically sound Christians and conservatives to turn out based on values and issues (not personalities), and shares Elon Musk’s warnings about potential long-term Democratic control. He also covers a major stock market sell-off that wiped out $1.5 trillion in value.

Caller Todd joins with a passionate prayer and encouragement to vote.

Dr. Ted Baehr (Movie Guide) offers a deeper look behind the scenes at the craft of successful filmmaking—covering jeopardy, structure, plot points, marketing, and typecasting—while encouraging support for the ministry.

Critical Midterm Call to Vote, Rays Fall Short & Movie Guide on Filmmaking Craft

On this Thursday edition of The Bill Bunkley Show, Kyle Warren sits in for Bill Bunkley and delivers a wide-ranging briefing focused on high-stakes political developments just five days before the November 3 midterms. He opens with the incomplete Israeli election results (93.8% counted), where Benjamin Netanyahu’s Likud holds roughly 53 seats and Gadi Eisenkot’s party about 48, with Arab parties at 19—leaving no clear path to a 61-seat Knesset majority and raising the possibility of prolonged coalition talks, a Netanyahu-Eisenkot deal, or even new elections while Netanyahu continues as caretaker prime minister. Warren stresses the importance of “no daylight” between the U.S. and Israel and warns that Democratic control of Congress after the midterms could alter that relationship. He then turns to the Alaska Senate race controversy involving an alleged fake “Dan Sullivan” candidate, reports linking Mary Peltola’s campaign, and the broader implications for election integrity. A major segment examines whether Democratic Socialists of America (DSA) members-elect could be blocked from taking the House oath if their platform calls for abolishing the Senate, packing the Supreme Court, or replacing the Constitution, citing Rep. Keith Self’s comments on the House’s duty to enforce good-faith oaths. Warren also covers new revelations that the Obama administration’s investigation into Ilhan Omar’s alleged 2009 marriage-to-brother immigration fraud began in 2016 and was later closed, now resurfacing amid a fresh federal probe, plus skepticism toward Iranian “peace” overtures, a Pinellas County commission meeting disruption involving a recorded Islamic call to prayer, an Ebola outbreak update from the Democratic Republic of Congo, a listener praise report after a successful cardiac procedure, and a closing note on the reported death of actor Patrick Stewart. Throughout, Warren urges strong turnout to “build and maintain the firewall,” shares Romans 15:13 on hope and peace, and takes energetic calls emphasizing faith, constitutional fidelity, and rejecting what he describes as destabilizing left-wing agendas.
