09-30-26 Part One - Talarico’s Unconvincing Christian Progressivism
2026/09/30
In part one of Red Eye Radio with Gary McNamara and Eric Harley, James Talarico may not think that God is nonbinary anymore, but he’s certain that He’s in favor of universal health care. The Texas Senate candidate posted a riff on X about how the Bible is the foundation of his progressivism. Supposedly, through happy coincidence, our Savior agrees with Talarico about important planks of the Democratic platform circa 2026. “When Jesus healed the sick,” the Democrat said, “He didn’t ask for a deductible. So, when I fight for universal health care, I’m doing it on biblical grounds.” This is the kind of cheap misuse of Scripture that Talarico, a former seminarian, finds irresistible. Also McDonald’s pushes AI tools that suggest Big Mac prices are based on ‘customers willingness to pay’ / the Iranian regime uses false propaganda to promote a normal and vibrant life in Iran / the "Senator John Kennedy Audio Cut of the Day" / and Geddy Lee’s Brad Bradford endorsement for Toronto mayor sparks debate among Rush fans: 'I guess we can no longer call Rush “progressive rock”' For more talk on the issues that matter to you, listen on radio stations across America Monday-Friday 12am-5am CT (1am-6am ET and 10pm-3am PT), download the RED EYE RADIO SHOW app, asking your smart speaker, or listening at RedEyeRadioShow.com.

09-30-26 Part Two - Introducing "Super Intelligence"
2026/09/30
In part two of Red Eye Radio with Gary McNamara and Eric Harley, President Trump on Tuesday signed an executive order renaming artificial intelligence to “super intelligence” in a rebranding that comes amid growing concerns about AI safety and hours after top AI industry executives met the president at the White House and signed a “morally binding” accord agreeing to improve controls and internal audits. Time will tell if the new name sticks. Also some in the Trump administration is rejecting the idea of sanctioning AI / a judge has ruled NY Mayor Mamdani's administration must void previously mailed second-home tax notices and redo the rollout after finding due process violations / and the BBC removes an article claiming bare nails trend perpetuates 'White supremacist' beauty standards.

09-29-26 Part One - Russian Cannon Fodder
2026/09/29
In part one of Red Eye Radio with Gary McNamara and Eric Harley, Russia is recruiting frontline troops for its war against Ukraine any way it can, and has duped at least 18 US men into fighting. The NY Times article states most are sent into the “meatgrinder” — the frontlines where they are mostly cannon fodder, quickly mowed down by Ukrainian drones, soldiers or artillery. Also a look at the Democratic campaign trail / The Correctional Service of Canada confirmed it will distribute paper straws in federal prisons to support "safer snorting" and reduce health risks among inmates / Largest-ever US steel plant is coming to a key red state as President Trump unveils $15B investment / even though consumer spending is up, Americans remain concerned about fuel prices / and America's shortage of skilled trades workers is straining homebuilding, infrastructure and a growing wave of commercial projects, as the industry struggles to bring younger workers into careers such as plumbing, electrical work and HVAC.

2026/09/28
In part one of Red Eye Radio with Gary McNamara and Eric Harley, Walmart is assuring customers it will not use personal data or AI to personalize prices. In a letter published Friday, Walmart President and CEO John Furner reaffirmed the retail giant's long-standing "Every Day Low Prices" strategy, saying the company prices "the product, not the person." Also Bill Gates warns artificial intelligence 'powerful enough' to cause 'a billion deaths' if unchecked / 39% of Democratic voters think the restaurant industry "should be publicly owned and operated" / and the Department of Agriculture now admits the collapse of farm exports was a direct result of President Trump's trade war.

09-28-26 Part Two - The High Cost of Education
2026/09/28
In part two of Red Eye Radio with Gary McNamara and Eric Harley, according to an article in the New York Review, the New York City Department of Education says it spent this year at P.S. 307 in Brooklyn, around $44,000 per student — and, when including other wraparound services, a whopping $58,000 per student. This story represents the expense of an American education especially in colleges around the nation. Also according to the latest NBC poll, Republicans maintain favorability over Democrats as the midterms approach / and a number of Senators in the GOP are waiting until the midterms are over before deciding to run for President in 2028.

09-25-26 Part One - A Data Center Near You
2026/09/25
In part one of Red Eye Radio with Gary McNamara and Eric Harley, the guys begin by discussing data centers and the effeciency of operation, dispelling a lot of baseless concerns of noise and energy consumption. As the need and dependency of AI increases, you may see more of these data centers that are neccessary to power AI. Also AOC visits a popular eatery in Gary's hometown / an astonishing 65% of Democrats favor a socialist ideology / Stanford University apologizes, saying AI-altered photo that changed a student’s gender and race violated policy / and American schools cost more than ever but our students still keep failing.

09-25-26 Part Two - Send In The Clowns
2026/09/25
In part two of Red Eye Radio with Gary McNamara and Eric Harley, the Boston Globe has an extraordinary story on a woke lesbian bar named Last Ditch that has a mandatory masking policy and has been hit by a backlash after choosing to make Saturdays mask-optional. One of the owners was attending clown school. This notion is such an absurdist touch that, if this were fiction, you’d think it was over the top. The guys have fun expanding the notion of attending clown school and how it could possibly benefit the graduate. Also Democrat Senators flee or no-show a Judiciary Committee hearing on protecting women's sports, with Sen Dick Durbin calling protective measures a 'vendetta' before walking out / and a new study dispells the myth of the high rate of transgender suicides.

09-24-26 Part One - The GOP Maintains Favorability
2026/09/24
In part one of Red Eye Radio with Gary McNamara and Eric Harley, even amid voter frustration over the economy and the Iran war, Republicans remain more popular than Democrats heading into Election Day. Republicans have a net favorability rating 8 points higher than Democrats, according to the latest NBC News poll. The GOP is viewed favorably by 36% and unfavorably by 49%, while Democrats fare even worse at 29% favorable and 50% unfavorable. Also the left can't identify a woman, let alone respect them / 'Palestinian Rachel Dolezal’ outed as white woman of significant privilege and wealth / a drag performer and a clown school student try to keep a lesbian bar in Massachusetts afloat / and Gary's healthy heart.

09-24-26 Part Two - A Full Court Press
2026/09/24
In part two of Red Eye Radio with Gary McNamara and Eric Harley, President Trump's ban on CNN, MS NOW and Politico suffered a setback Thursday after a federal judge ordered the administration to restore White House access to the outlets. U.S. District Judge Timothy Kelly issued a temporary restraining order Thursday blocking the ban and ordering White House officials to "immediately return, reinstate, and restore" the outlets' hard-pass press credentials while their legal battle continues. The order will be in effect for 14 days. Also Republican's are not thrilled with the President's support of NYC Mayor Mamdani during Monday's meeting at Gracie Mansion / audio from comedian Bill Burr on career authenticity / audio from Independent Council on Women's Sport (ICONS) co-founder Kim Jones testifying during a Senate hearing on Capitol Hill / and Democrats are so desperate to see President Trump out of office that a majority would be happy to see him overthrown in a military coup or die in his sleep, a jaw-dropping new poll has found.

09-23-26 Part One - Masks Required
2026/09/23
In part one of Red Eye Radio with Gary McNamara and Eric Harley, trouble is a brewin’ at this watering hole. A Massachusetts lesbian bar descended into a catty culture war and faces a potentially business-ending boycott from sudden enemies who flipped out when the owners lifted a longstanding mask mandate — for just one night a week. Greenfield’s Last Ditch Bar scrapped Saturday mask requirements on Aug. 31 in a bid to boost business — but the move completely backfired, sparking uproar from members of the small city’s queer community. The left is off the rails! Also an update on Wilber Rafael Garces Perez who was shot in Austin, Tx on Sunday by ICE officers / the onslaught of political ads on TV / and polls indicate Republicans fear losing seats as the mid-terms approach.

09-23-26 Part Two - The GOP's Cost for the Mid-Terms
2026/09/23
In part two of Red Eye Radio with Gary McNamara and Eric Harley, Republicans are heading into the final stretch of the midterm race recognizing a blunt message: Voters are frustrated, and acknowledging those frustrations might be key to keeping them in the GOP column. Republicans have been increasingly framing the election as a choice between “common sense” versus “communist crazy” — arguing that democratic socialist and progressive candidates would make life worse for the American people. Also Vice President JD Vance announced Tuesday that his White House Fraud Task Force will be removing 750,000 fraudulent Obamacare recipients from the program in an effort he says will save U.S. taxpayers $2.2 billion.
