In this high-octane Wednesday edition of What’s On Your Mind, guest host Justin (JD Lake) fills in for Scott Hennan to navigate the intersection of faith, media, and global affairs. The episode features an exclusive, candid sit-down with legendary actor Kevin Sorbo, who discusses being a "victim of cancel culture" in Hollywood, his Minnesota roots, and his shift into family-friendly filmmaking.
The conversation doesn't stop at Tinseltown. General Blaine Holt breaks down the "Marxist playbook" behind recent civil unrest, while former America at Night host Rich Valdez opens up about his move to IHeartRadio and the future of streaming media. From the economic stability of gold and silver to the spiritual warfare occurring in America’s streets, this episode provides a grounded, conservative perspective on the week’s biggest headlines.
