The Brett Winterble Show

George Santos, Sandra Day O'Conner and the 2024 Election

Tune in here to this  Monday's edition of the Brett Winterble Show! 



Brett kicks off the program by talking about President Trump’s approach to Iran and the broader political moment unfolding in the United States. He describes what he sees as a rare period in American politics where a second-term president—separated from his first term by another administration—is operating with fewer political restraints and a greater willingness to act decisively on the world stage. Brett argues that while some political factions remain focused on media controversies and internet personalities, the administration is concentrating on larger geopolitical stakes, particularly the confrontation with Iran.



We’re joined by Paul Kengor from The American Spectator to talk about his new book The American Pontiff and the historic election of Pope Leo XIV following the death of Pope Francis. Kengor discusses the shock inside and outside the Catholic world when an American cardinal emerged from the conclave after just four ballots, defying long-standing expectations that the papacy would never go to an American.

Trump, Iran, and the Rise of an American Pope On The Brett Winterble Show

Kengor discusses the shock inside and outside the Catholic world when an American cardinal emerged from the conclave after just four ballots, defying long-standing expectations that the papacy would never go to an American.



He explains how the new pope’s decades of international service in Latin America and Rome helped convince cardinals he could lead the global church while still reflecting American roots. Kengor also contrasts the new pontiff’s measured and unifying leadership style with the turbulence of the previous era, arguing that many cardinals were seeking stability, humility, and a renewed focus on unity within the church after years of internal tension and debate.

Tune in here to this Friday’s edition of the Brett Winterble Show! 



Brett kicks off the program with Pete Kaliner for this edition of The Hangover as they discuss media narratives surrounding the conflict with Iran and the political reactions playing out on cable news. The conversation begins with commentary on remarks from Pete Hegseth criticizing how outlets frame the Middle East conflict, arguing that headlines often exaggerate chaos instead of highlighting Iran’s weakening position. Brett and Kaliner also poke fun at what they describe as predictable media reactions, including controversy over Hegseth’s use of the phrase “no quarter” during wartime rhetoric.



Later Brett continues the conversation about foreign policy, domestic politics, and emerging security concerns. Responding to messages from callers and listeners across the region, Brett addresses criticism of Democratic leaders such as Chuck Schumer and Adam Schiff, while also touching on debates over immigration, political accountability, and the direction of the country.



The discussion briefly turns to security alerts after George Mason University temporarily closed its Fairfax campus library following bomb threats, prompting Brett to reflect on how threats and disruptions are increasingly used to create fear even when they don’t lead to actual attacks.
