Karmela Waldman and her son, Emmy award winning journalist Joel Waldman, are the duo which make up the podcast, YouTube Channel, website, and now book  "Surviving The Survivor."

This is a gr...

Joel Griffith, Heritage Foundation, has a long history and expertise in the U.S. economy. He is also a student of the origination and purpose of the Federal Reserve.

He is charged with two counts of retail theft and one...

In his monthly visit, Charlie Strickland discussed a couple of stories from the news which are full of lessons, and sadly some tragedy. He also tells a story not many have ever heard about his days on the campus of Florida State. 

Florida's former Governor, now U.S. Senator, Rick Scott used to be a fixture on Preston's show. He's coming back around and covered a lot of ground in this visit. But how he started goes down as one of the best openins ever!

What do those three topics have in common? Scott Beekin, the Beeline Blogger.
