The Jeff Ward Show

The civil lawsuit against Deshaun Watson continues. Watson now has to confirm whether he had sex with 18 massage therapists who supported him last year following the accusations against him.

The House voted to federally legalize marijuana but many think the bill won't pass in the Senate. Moral arguments aside, can the promise of increased revenue and new jobs be enough for the bill to pass? Many Americans are still refusing the COVID-19 vaccine because they claim it's unsafe. But a man got 90 COVID shots and is still breathing so that argument doesn't seem to hold as much weight as it...

The partisan divide is real. No one can deny that. We're living through a civil war of viewpoints. How was this civil war created? Surprisingly, politicians are not to blame; it's media habits. There have been lots of ridiculous lies from Donald Trump over the years but this might be the best one yet. Have you ever heard of Michigan's "Man of the Year?" No? That's because it doesn't exist.

Everyone from the original cast is back…except for Maverick's love interest, Charlotte Blackwood, played by Kelly McGillis. Thanks to Sup...
