2026/01/29

FAN MAIL--We would love YOUR feedback--Send us a Text Message When the numbers are this strong—near four percent growth across three straight quarters, inflation easing, wages outpacing prices—it’s tempting for Washington to claim credit and start tinkering. We make a different case: the smartest move is restraint. Let a running economy keep its stride by preserving the incentives that sparked it—lower taxes, lighter regulatory loads, abundant energy, and clear rules that reward productivity....

Theory 2 Action Podcast ·

2026/01/26

FAN MAIL--We would love YOUR feedback--Send us a Text Message Your reading list shouldn’t be a source of guilt. It should be a lever for real change. We explore how to stop juggling half‑finished titles and start using one book to solve concrete problems in your work and life. Guided by Gary Keller and Jay Papasan’s focusing question—What’s the one thing I can do such that by doing it everything else becomes easier or unnecessary?—we trade information overload for practical clarity. We break...

MM#456--Steelers Stability, Tomlin’s Legacy

Theory 2 Action Podcast ·

2026/01/23

FAN MAIL--We would love YOUR feedback--Send us a Text Message A coach you could count on. That’s the rarest currency in a league built on chaos, and it’s exactly what Mike Tomlin delivered for nineteen seasons in Pittsburgh. We break down how standards, not slogans, powered a run with no losing years, a locker room that believed, and a city that saw its own identity reflected in the man on the sideline. We dig into the engine behind the consistency: clear expectations, blunt honesty, and a c...

Theory 2 Action Podcast ·

2026/01/19

FAN MAIL--We would love YOUR feedback--Send us a Text Message The cubicle jokes were the hook, but the accuracy was the engine. We look at Scott Adams’ life and ideas with fresh eyes—how Dilbert named the dysfunction so many of us felt, how The Dilbert Principle exposed bad incentives, and why his most lasting gift may be a set of practical tools for everyday progress. We share how systems beat goals, why routines create momentum, and how talent stacking and energy management let normal peopl...

2026/01/16

FAN MAIL--We would love YOUR feedback--Send us a Text Message Tyranny spreads by force, and so must the resolve to stop it. We take a clear-eyed look at what comes after a dictator falls in Caracas and argue for a blueprint that restores Venezuelan sovereignty without sliding into a quagmire. Our approach blends moral clarity with practical steps: empower a transitional council, reform and retrain security forces, and build a justice process that punishes violent crimes while creating space f...

Theory 2 Action Podcast ·

2026/01/12

FAN MAIL--We would love YOUR feedback--Send us a Text Message A nighttime city goes dark, rotors whisper over rooftops, and a regime built on crime loses its center of gravity. That image anchors a frank, fast-moving breakdown of Operation Absolute Resolve—the surgical extraction that removed Nicolás Maduro without a single U.S. casualty or aircraft loss. We open with first principles from Liberty and Tyranny, asking what prudence requires when unalienable rights collide with the limits of Am...

America's story--Washington's Christmas Miracle of 1776

Theory 2 Action Podcast ·

2025/12/30

FAN MAIL--We would love YOUR feedback--Send us a Text Message A nation doesn’t survive on slogans; it survives on choices made when every option looks bad. We step into December 1776, when Washington’s army bled across New Jersey, Congress fled, and the British believed the rebellion would expire by New Year’s. What followed wasn’t a miracle of myth so much as a masterpiece of grit: a night crossing through a nor’easter, intelligence and deception that dulled Hessian caution, and a blunt reso...

Theory 2 Action Podcast ·

2025/12/23

FAN MAIL--We would love YOUR feedback--Send us a Text Message The candles are burning low, Advent is nearly complete, and a quiet figure steps into focus: Saint Joseph. We open the door to the workshop where silence is eloquent and obedience changes history, exploring how a man with no recorded words still teaches us what fatherhood, courage, and reverence look like when God draws near. We walk through Scripture’s testimony that names Joseph as father, son of David, and guardian of the Messi...

MM#450--The Night the US Civil War Was Lost

Theory 2 Action Podcast ·

2025/12/21

FAN MAIL--We would love YOUR feedback--Send us a Text Message One audacious night on the Mississippi may have decided the Civil War. We dive into the capture of New Orleans in 1862 and show how Farragut’s risky run past Forts Jackson and St. Philip didn’t just seize a city—it fractured the Confederacy’s map, gutted its finances, and reshaped the war’s momentum. New Orleans wasn’t just a symbol; it was the South’s engine: the largest population center, a world-class port, a shipbuilding hub, a...

2025/12/17

FAN MAIL--We would love YOUR feedback--Send us a Text Message Your brain doesn’t need more highlighter ink; it needs a knot that keeps memories from slipping. We unpack the testing effect—why retrieval practice beats rereading—and show how spacing transforms effortful recall into durable knowledge you can trust under pressure. Instead of piling on more beads, we teach you to tie the string: close the book, recall from memory, then verify. Along the way, we break the familiarity trap that make...

FAN MAIL--We would love YOUR feedback--Send us a Text Message If studying feels smooth, you might be doing it wrong. We dig into the science behind durable learning and show why the methods that feel effortful—retrieval, spacing, and interleaving—produce knowledge that holds up under pressure. Drawing on Make It Stick and real-world examples, we unpack how familiar strategies like rereading, highlighting, and cramming create a comforting illusion of mastery while leaving you empty-handed when...

CC#44--How Close We Came To Nuclear War

Theory 2 Action Podcast ·

2025/12/08

FAN MAIL--We would love YOUR feedback--Send us a Text Message What if the closest brush with nuclear war didn’t happen in 1962, but in the 1980s—and what if a prayerful act in Rome influenced events that rewired the calculus of the Cold War? We follow that thread from a field in Portugal to a tense global standoff, connecting the story of Fatima to a series of world-shaping decisions. We begin with a clear, accessible Fatima 101: the 1917 apparitions, the three shepherd children, the call to...

America's Story -- Longstreet Reconsidered

Theory 2 Action Podcast ·

2025/12/02

FAN MAIL--We would love YOUR feedback--Send us a Text Message A funeral that halted a Southern town sets the stage for one of the most misunderstood lives in American history. We follow James Longstreet from West Point camaraderie with Ulysses S. Grant to the smoke-choked battlefield of Gettysburg, and then into a second, riskier career: defending Reconstruction, backing Black suffrage, and standing up to paramilitary terror in New Orleans. The journey overturns easy labels and asks a h...

FAN MAIL--We would love YOUR feedback--Send us a Text Message A ballot can be as fragile as a night’s sleep when terror rules the streets. We dig into the hard edge of Reconstruction and follow Ulysses S. Grant as he turns constitutional promises into enforceable rights, taking on the Ku Klux Klan with law, prosecutors, and troops. Guided by Fergus Bordewich’s The Klan War, we trace how organized violence spread across the South, how courts and juries collapsed under intimidation, and how the...

Theory 2 Action Podcast ·

2025/11/17

FAN MAIL--We would love YOUR feedback--Send us a Text Message A battlefield victory does not guarantee control of the story. We trace how the Confederacy lost the war but captured American memory through textbooks, monuments, and movies, turning slavery into “states’ rights,” treason into tragic romance, and Robert E. Lee into a spotless icon. Using the secession documents themselves, we dismantle the core claims of the Lost Cause and show how Reconstruction briefly expanded freedom before a ...

FAN MAIL--We would love YOUR feedback--Send us a Text Message Headlines can heat the blood; evidence steadies the mind. We step back from election drama to explore Thomas Sowell’s lifetime of clear thinking on prices, incentives, culture, and the hard truth that there are no solutions—only trade-offs. From a hardscrabble childhood and a GED to Harvard, Chicago, and the Hoover Institution, Sowell’s journey shapes a method: test claims against outcomes, not intentions. That approach leads us in...

2025/11/09

FAN MAIL--We would love YOUR feedback--Send us a Text Message New York just elected a 34-year-old democratic socialist as mayor, and the city’s political ground shifted underfoot. We unpack the upset—how small donors, social media savvy, and an affordability-first platform overcame long odds—and then stress test each promise against law, budgets, and history. From four-year rent freezes and free buses to universal childcare and a path to a $30 minimum wage, we ask the hard question: which ide...
