Joel Gilbert – Episode 51 May 05, 2021

Joel Gilbert is a filmmaker, director and writer of political and music documentaries. His film and book, The Trayvon Hoax: Unmasking the Witness Fraud that Divided America has convinced the thousands who saw it that there was witness fraud in the trial of George Zimmerman.

Gilbert has faced backlash for making films based on his theories about subjects such as Barack Obama and progressivism. But, he tells Greg Kelly, it's his job to be provocative and make people think outside the traditional media narrative.

Enjoy this conversation between two people who dare to take on the mainstream of our culture.

Jennifer Bennett – Episode 50 May 03, 2021

Jennifer Bennett is one of the survivors of the 2013 Navy Yard shooting that claimed the lives of 12 people in Washington, D.C.
Ms. Bennett gets candid with Greg Kelly about how her faith kept her calm and collected while literally staring down the barrel of the shooter's weapon. She sustained a point-blank shotgun blast and was severely wounded. Despite her experience, Bennett is decisively pro-Second Amendment and says neither the gun nor the shooter alone did her harm.
Ms. Bennett also gets candid about the 46th President. She encountered Joe Biden while recovering from her wounds. It was in this exchange, she says, she saw his self-centered disingenuous nature first hand.
The most riveting part of this interview, however, is Bennett's moment-by-moment playback of the Navy Yard shooting, recounted in 20 riveting, uninterrupted minutes with edge-of-your-seat details. It's clear the encounter is as vivid today as it was nearly a decade ago.
Ms. Bennett is a public speaker on the topic of leadership, her book is "Standing Still In A Culture of Mass Shootings" and can be found at her website, Navy Yard Survivor.

Larry Stegna – Episode 42 Apr 05, 2021

Larry Stegna served his country for 40 plus years as a silent hero. He worked as a Marine Electrician for the legendary Bath Iron Works. In his time there, he worked to secure electrical work on over 70 ships.

The vital work of the Bath crew allows the Navy sailors and officers to do their job knowing they are on a top-of-the-line vessel. In this interview with Greg Kelly, Stegna gets emotional when talking about the pride he had in his work at Bath Iron Works.

After Stegna's father passed, a ship called the USS Zumwalt came into his life. Working on that ship helped him refocus his life on what gave it meaning: serving our military. Named after Admiral Elmo Zumwalt, Jr., the ship also allowed Stegna to meet the Zumwalt family. They have been close family friends ever since. Admiral Zumwalt's granddaughter Maya is the executive producer of this podcast.

This is a can't-miss conversation with a true American patriot whose vital work is often overlooked, but nonetheless a part of the backbone of our military's strength.
