CHRISTIAN TOTO ON TO TALK HOLLYWOOD As he does at his website and podcast called Hollywood In Toto (find them here). Christian has been writing a lot lately about what it's like to "come out" as a Trump voter or conservative in Hollywood and it's not pretty. It actually makes me like the folks who have done so even more, because it's a real act of bravery. Read a story from Newsbusters here, and from early January about stars who support Israel. He joins me to talk about this and summer movies at 1.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

I AGREE WITH KYLE CLARK And I think this is like three times this year alone so maybe I need to get checked out. JK, he's just been right three times this year, that's all. This time he's right about the dumb pedestrian bridge over Lincoln that Governor Polis has decided he must have. Watch Kyle take it apart here.DICK MONFORT PUTS HIS KID IN CHARGE Of the Rockies. I'm sure this will help their current .225 winning percentage. No chance of that, because he won't take over until 2026.

EMPATHY HAS BEEN WEAPONIZED And there is a fantastic book about it called The Sin of Empathy: Compassion and Its Counterfeits by a fellow named Joe Rigney. Dr. Joe Rigney serves as Fellow of Theology at New Saint Andrews College and a pastor at Christ Church in Moscow, Idaho. He is the author of eight books, including Leadership and Emotional Sabotage (Canon Press, 2024) as well as The Sin of Empathy. To say his take on how our natural sympathy has been weaponized against us isn't being taken well is an understatement, as you can read in this column, but after reading the book I agree with him 100%. We need compassion, not empathy. One helps, the other enables. It's a great book and you should buy it here. It's about compassion, not empathy. He joins me at 1.LET'S TALK PRIDE FOR A HOT MINUTE One of my favorite gays Rich Guggenheim joins me today to talk about PRIDE month and why his amicus brief was cited in the Skirmetti decision.

HOLY SMOKES YOU GUYS I won't have much time to blather on about the amazing trip we took to South Korea and Japan (but I'm sure I'll get in plenty of blathering) because you may have heard that the US did a sneak attack against the Iranian regime that may or may not have ended their nuclear program for the time being. President Trump gave some brief comments about it the other night and you can watch them here.I love that there is an active effort to bring civility back to our lives and political discussions. Today at 2:30 I've got Lori Leander from Reclaiming Civility and Sandra Brownrigg from Braver Angels Southern Front Range Alliance on to talk about what their organization is trying to do to elevate the dialogue in our communities again. They've got an event coming up called "Civility on the International Space Station with Astronaut Jim Dutton" and you can go. To find out more and reserve your seat, click here.
