2022/08/23

The success of the documentary “2000 Mules” shows the election fraud narrative is a money making scam with no end in sight.

Our “war on drugs” has been a colossal failure. Jeff Ward argues our country’s closed-minded approach to decriminalization has done nothing but clog up the courts, burn through taxpayer money, and create corruption and cartels. Now, one country ruined by our war on drugs is trying a different approach, and it’s one, Jeff says, we should consider. https://advertisecast.com/thejeffwardshow Contact: sales@advertisecast.com

Why does airline travel suck more than ever before?

The Jeff Ward Show ·

2022/08/22

Airline travel has turned into a post pandemic nightmare with almost 25 percent of all flights delayed and 4 percent cancelled. The Federal Government is proposing mandatory refunds for delays and cancellations, but how will this plan work? Will it even pass? Ethan Klapper of the popular travel site “Points Guy” talks about dealing with delays, seat size legislation (yes, laws related to leg room), and he provides fall travel tips for what and where to avoid.

2022/08/22

WNBA star Brittney Griner has been sentenced to nine years in a Russian prison for CBD oil and a vape pen. Jeff Ward says her “real” crime is being black, gay, American, and being in Russia at the start of the invasion of Ukraine. But is the Biden Administration doing enough to get her out? What are the options? Dennis Rodman (yes, the great diplomat) says he’s traveling to see his “buddy” Vlad Putin to get her out of prison. Assuming Dennis can’t make it happen, Jeff suggests a prisoner swap by

Donald Trump's legal problems have created a fascinating political landscape. Does the Republcian Party throw him under the bus and move on, or stay with him as long as he's not convicted of a crime (or crimes)? Does the Trump/Marjorie Taylor Greene "wing" of the Party split off? Does Ron DeSantis run with or against Trump? Does Liz Cheney's crusade to take Trump down work? Do Democrats sit idly by and let Trump go on the attack? Tim Miller, author of the successful book "Why We did It: A Travelogue

2022/08/18

Greg Abbott has been criticized for not doing and saying more in the wake of the Uvalde, Texas school shooting. His response to silence critics comes in the form of an app called iWatch, and while the idea behind iWatch is reasonable, it’s the Chuck Norris pitch that will turn the PSA into a laughable meme.

Book banning is alive and well. Be proud Texas.

The culture war vigilantes are at it again and off to big start the first week of school in Texas with one district banning 41 books already. Daily Beast writer Brooke Leigh Howard covers book bans around the country, and she provides a primer as to where (and why) banning books is happening so often. She even describes how some districts are banning the Ray Bradbury novel “Fahrenheit 451."

Is Elon Musk more like Steve Jobs or a Kardashian?

2022/08/17

Is Elon Musk’s path forward to be one of the business world’s most innovative entrepreneurs, or is he more about social media mentions and followers? Given his latest publicity stunt, Jeff Ward argues he’s more Kardashian than Warren Buffett. He seems less concerned with the buying price, and more interested in likes and followers. https://advertisecast.com/thejeffwardshow Contact: sales@advertisecast.com

Like Congress, the Austin City Council gets to decide if it NEEDS to give itself a raise, so the 10 members are deciding whether to increase their own pay by 40 percent. One of the reasons given is the skyrocketing cost of living in Austin. Jeff Ward points out the laughable hypocrisy to this entire self-serving exercise, and he asks, “If the pay is so awful for elected officials, how come they never seem to quit?” He proposes a study: Cut the pay of all elected officials by 50 percent and see how

A roadside selfie leads to a social media fight.

The Jeff Ward Show ·

2022/08/17

It’s bad enough for a police officer to take a roadside selfie with culture war icon Kyle Rittenhouse, but the issue goes to another level if the small town police department “brags” about it. Not surprisingly, the department ends up in a social media fight with the very public it serves. Jeff Ward says it’s a shockingly tone-deaf move that’s been mishandled from the very beginning. https://advertisecast.com/thejeffwardshow Contact: sales@advertisecast.com

Thomas Henderson’s legendary career was derailed by his drug addiction, and when he ended up in prison, he left “Hollywood” Henderson behind. His story of going from a small college player taken in the first round of the NFL Draft, to an All-Pro and Super Bowl winner, to drug addict, to lottery winner, seems like it’s straight from a movie script. His personal story is both tragic and inspirational, and while his life sounds like a movie, Jeff Ward adds another layer by making the case that he is

The mindbender you'll never solve.

2022/08/16

Challenge yourself, friends, and family with the game, "How can Donald Trump lose five percentage points?" It's such a difficult game it makes solving a Rubik's Cube seem easy. Jeff Ward has yet to find an answer, and he provides a dozen examples, but now, with Trump's latest "espionage" trouble, the game is relevant again. Are the latest accusations enough to lose five points among his unchanging support of 38 percent?

Can an “MF bomb” help a candidate get elected?

Beto O’Rourke trails current Texas Governor Greg Abbott in the polls, but he just got his big viral moment, and it came in the form of an “MF bomb” shouted at a heckler. He snapped and the crowd cheered. Will it help or hurt? Jeff Ward argues that if he pulls off the upset, this bizarre viral moment might be THE reason. https://advertisecast.com/thejeffwardshow Contact: sales@advertisecast.com

The entire search warrant story reads like a mix between a Tom Clancy novel and a Coen Brothers movie. Attorney Stephen Toland breaks down ALL of the legal angles for the raid of Donald Trump’s home. Is it a reliable indicator the Feds have legitimate nuclear weapons concerns? What are the legal pros and cons for releasing the details of the Warrant? What is Trump’s best defense? How effective is his “planted evidence” argument? https://advertisecast.com/thejeffwardshow Contact:

Is the ‘crying boss” making things better, or worse?

CEO Braden Wallake has willingly started a virtual debate after going public with an emotional post on LinkedIn saying that his mistakes cost his employees their jobs, and he wants everyone to know that there are plenty of CEOs who care about their employees. He ends his post with a crying selfie (even calls himself the “crying CEO.”) He’s getting plenty of sympathy and plenty of hate. Why post this? Does it make everyone feel better? Better yet, was the crying selfie a good move?

Tony Romo made Tom Brady rich(er).

The NFL is a made-for-TV game and networks embrace the entertainment value of broadcasting talent. Jeff Ward explains why Tom Brady has Tony Romo to thank for the $375 million waiting for him when he walks away from the game. It all started with the original rockstars of the booth, the Monday Night Football crew of Frank Gifford, Don Meredith, and Howard Cosell, and John Madden and Romo are the closest thing to the originals. Is Tom Brady the next star? It’s a crazy gamble that likely won’t pay off

CPAC event turns into a bizarre circus.

Steven Monacelli writes about politics for Rolling Stone and The Dallas Observer, and he was in Dallas covering the most recent CPAC (Conservative Political Action Committee) event that featured the Hungarian Prime Minister (of course), and an announcement teaser by Donald Trump. Monacelli describes an event he says is the “weirdest political event I’ve ever witnessed.” It all starts with a fake jail scene, he says, and it gets more bizarre from there. https://advertisecast.com/thejeffwardshow
