Is mass immigration biblical — or is it being weaponized against America and the Church?
Bryan Dawson sits down with Pastor Rich Lusk to confront one of the most controversial issues facing Alabama and the nation today: immigration, assimilation, and biblical truth.
On this episode of 1819 News: The Podcast, we examine what the Bible actually says about immigration, why many churches have adopted progressive talking points, and how immigration without assimilation becomes invasion. Pastor Rich Lusk breaks down Scripture, church history, and theology to explain why nations, borders, and order matter — and why Christians must reject toxic empathy and lawlessness disguised as compassion.
This conversation also exposes how progressive and Marxist-aligned organizations have intentionally targeted the Church, funding astroturf campaigns and manipulating Scripture to reshape Christian views on immigration, sovereignty, and national identity.
Why would Jesus choose Simon Peter—a flawed, impulsive, ordinary fisherman—to become the foundation of the Church?

From walking on water to denying Christ, Peter’s journey mirrors the struggles of everyday believers and reveals how faith is forged through doubt, growth, and perseverance.
The discussion also examines why modern culture—and Hollywood—often misunderstands Christianity, why authentic faith-based storytelling still resonates with audiences, and how Peter’s leadership compares to foundational figures like George Washington.

In this episode, Bryan Dawson applies the “Dutton Principle” to immigration and explains why anything worth having must be defended—or it will be lost.
Dawson connects faith, history, and current events to argue that immigration is the most urgent political issue facing America today. Building on themes from recent episodes, he explains why immigration without assimilation is not compassion, but invasion, and how it fits into a broader cultural and ideological struggle.
Dawson frames America as an inherited garden, built through sacrifice and faith, and warns that stewardship requires the courage to protect what previous generations handed down. From overwhelmed hospitals and public schools to rising housing costs, infrastructure strain, public safety concerns, and compromised elections, he lays out how mass legal and illegal immigration is reshaping the nation’s economy, culture, and future.
In a viral personal story sparked by a routine trip to buy stamps, Dawson exposes what he calls “toxic empathy”—a mindset that prioritizes the feelings of lawbreakers over responsibility to citizens and future generations. The backlash he received online, filled with accusations of racism and fascism, becomes a case study in how dissent is silenced and resistance discouraged.
The episode also addresses a controversial but direct claim: while abortion remains a grave moral evil, a nation must exist in order to outlaw it. Without borders, assimilation, and moral clarity, no long-term political victories are possible.
Dawson closes with a call to reject propaganda, embrace courage, and accept that defending something worth having always comes at a cost.
In this powerful and thought-provoking episode of 1819 News: The Podcast , host Bryan Dawson takes listeners on a gripping journey through the cultural battles shaping Alabama, America, and the future of Western civilization itself. Drawing on vivid metaphors—from Y ellowstone to the biblical creation mandate—Dawson introduces the compelling “Dutton Principle”: Anything worth having will inevitably be targeted, and unless we defend it with courage, it will be lost.
This episode zeroes in on one of Alabama’s most influential institutions: Auburn University. Dawson makes a passionate case for why Auburn is not only worth protecting but uniquely positioned to become the nation’s model for what a bold, unapologetically traditional university can be. With stories uncovered by 1819 News—ranging from DEI rebranding tactics and radical curriculum choices to controversial hiring decisions and alleged race-based admissions practices—Dawson paints a candid picture of a university at a crossroads.
But this conversation goes far beyond campus politics. Dawson zooms out to connect today’s cultural tensions to a sweeping historical narrative of Christendom, Western civilization, and the ideological forces that have sought to dismantle them for over a century. From the Bolshevik Revolution to the “long march through the institutions,” he traces how modern progressive ideology took root and explains why its rise represents not just a political struggle, but a spiritual one.
At the heart of the episode is a clear, energizing call to action: leaders must lead. Whether trustees, administrators, alumni, or everyday citizens, Dawson argues that those entrusted with influence have a responsibility to protect what is good, true, and beautiful—and to remove what threatens the hearts, minds, and souls of future generations.
Bold, unfiltered, and deeply motivating, this episode challenges listeners to see the cultural landscape with fresh clarity and to engage with renewed purpose. If you care about Alabama, education, or the future of America, this is an episode you cannot afford to miss.
In this powerful episode of 1819 News: The Podcast, we confront one of the most fundamental—and forbidden—questions in modern American discourse: What does it mean to be an American, and who gets to decide? From open borders to birthright citizenship, from mass immigration to the reshaping of culture and national identity, we dig into the uncomfortable realities that most media outlets and political leaders refuse to touch.
Host Bryan Dawson lays the groundwork with a striking analogy drawn from Yellowstone: Whenever something beautiful and valuable is built, there will always be forces trying to take it. America, he argues, is no different. As millions cross our borders and political elites rewrite long-held definitions of citizenship and nationhood, we must ask whether the inheritance passed down by our forefathers is being preserved—or quietly replaced.
Joining the conversation is author, cultural commentator, and prolific X-poster Andrew Isker, known for his penetrating critiques of “trash world” politics and his unapologetic defense of Christian nationalism and traditional American identity. Isker breaks down why nations are not mere “propositions,” why multiculturalism uniquely destabilizes Western societies, and why the U.S. has abandoned the basic principle that a government exists to serve its own people.
Dawson and Isker explore the economic side of national decline—from H-1B visa abuses to the outsourcing of American opportunity to foreign labor. They tackle the myth of the “melting pot,” the misinterpretation of the 14th Amendment, and the propaganda that conditions Americans to reject the very instincts every other nation on earth takes for granted.
This episode is a call to clarity. A call to return to a grounded understanding of nation, people, land, and culture. A call to reject the naïveté that assumes everyone flooding into our country shares our values or intentions. A call to defend what remains of the most extraordinary civilizational achievement in human history: the United States of America.
If you’re ready for tough questions, honest answers, and a conversation that pushes past the boundaries of polite political discourse, this is an episode you can’t afford to miss.
In this special Thanksgiving episode of 1819 News: The Podcast, host Bryan Dawson sits down with Col. John Eidsmoe—author, historian, and chairman of the Plymouth Rock Foundation—to explore the true, awe-inspiring story behind Plymouth Plantation, the Mayflower, and the first Thanksgiving. More than a history lesson, this conversation uncovers the spiritual DNA of America: courage, sacrifice, self-government, and unshakeable faith in God’s providence.
Dawson opens the episode by connecting the Pilgrims’ story to his own family lineage, tracing his ancestry back to the Wampanoag chief who stood alongside the Pilgrims at that first Thanksgiving. Eidsmoe, joining the show dressed in full Pilgrim attire, begins unpacking the Pilgrims’ rich written history—one of the most well-documented origins of any nation besides ancient Israel. He walks listeners through their persecution in England, their turbulent stay in the Netherlands, and the bold decision to cross the Atlantic for the sake of religious freedom and the advancement of the Christian faith.
Together, Dawson and Eidsmoe trace the harrowing voyage of the Mayflower, the drafting of the Mayflower Compact, and the brutal first winter in which half the colony perished. Eidsmoe explains how God’s providence appeared repeatedly—from Squanto’s arrival, to the peaceful treaty with Massasoit, to the Pilgrims’ first successful harvest and their now-legendary feast of thanksgiving to God.
The episode also delves into the Pilgrims’ early flirtation with socialism—forced upon them by investors—and how Gov. William Bradford recorded its utter failure and the colony’s explosive success once private property and individual incentive were restored. Eidsmoe even shares the remarkable story of how Bradford’s long-lost manuscript, History of Plymouth Plantation, was miraculously recovered centuries later.
This Thanksgiving, Dawson invites listeners to look beyond food, family, and football and remember the faith, fortitude, and God-honoring vision of the men and women who risked everything to establish a Christian foothold in the New World. This powerful episode is a call to gratitude, to remembrance, and to reclaiming America’s true heritage.
In this special edition of 1819 News: The Podcast, you’ll get a front row seat to 1819 News CEO Bryan Dawson's speech at the 2nd Annual Albert Patterson Gala: An Evening of Courage featuring Tucker Carlson.
Dawson gave a brief but incredible speech calling Christians to speak the truth and confront wickedness when and where they see it, no matter the cost.
God brought everything into existence by speaking and humans are the only creatures in creation who share that ability to speak. Because of this, Dawson highlights the importance of speaking the truth and refusing to be silenced.
We hope you’ll enjoy this brief speech and allow it to inspire you to go forth with courage, refusing to be silenced as you speak and live the truth.

In this powerhouse episode, 1819 News CEO Bryan Dawson sits down with Tucker Carlson for the most explosive and candid conversation ever featured on the podcast.
Sparked by a seven-year-old viral clip of Carlson debating Ben Shapiro over driverless trucks, Dawson lays out how that single moment shattered the spell of neoliberal economics and exposed the human cost of deindustrialization, mass immigration, and endless foreign wars. What began as a discussion about jobs and GDP quickly became a full-scale autopsy of the conservative movement’s decades-long betrayal of the American working class.
Carlson pulls no punches: he traces his own journey from a Weekly Standard neoconservative to the leading voice of America First nationalism, recounting the exact moment in Baghdad in 2003 when he realized he’d been “used” to sell a disastrous war. With unflinching honesty, he admits his past mistakes, explains why he now rejects both libertarian economics and neoconservative foreign policy as “false religions,” and declares that any government not putting its own citizens first has no legitimacy.
The conversation then dives into the ongoing civil war inside conservatism—paleocons vs. neocons, Buchanan vs. Buckley 2.0—and why the old gatekeepers are finally losing control thanks to Elon Musk’s X. Carlson defends “America First” against decades of deliberate slander, dismantles the weaponized charge of antisemitism used to silence dissent, and warns that unchecked demographic replacement and anti-white discrimination are destroying the country his children will inherit.
From the collapse of Kevin Roberts at Heritage to the rise of Nick Fuentes among a generation of angry young men, Carlson and Dawson confront the uncomfortable truths the establishment refuses to face: the American people have been lied to, sold out, and humiliated—and they’ve finally had enough.
A raw, unfiltered, and deeply Christian case for putting America—and Americans—first. If you care about the future of this nation, this is the one episode you cannot miss.
In this compelling conversation on 1819 News: The Podcast, host Bryan Dawson, CEO of 1819 News, investigates a growing movement to bring classical education—and timeless values—back to Alabama’s classrooms.
Dawson opens by challenging listeners to imagine a future where the destiny of Alabama’s children depends on returning to the classics—where education once again forms virtue, wisdom, and freedom of thought. Together, he and Ron Packard, founder and CEO of ACCEL Schools, discuss the philosophical and practical renewal of education through the Alabama Virtual Classical Academy, a new tuition-free online school launching in partnership with Sylacauga City Schools. Enabled by Alabama’s recent school choice reforms, this initiative gives families statewide access to a rigorous, virtue-centered education rooted in the timeless ideas of Aristotle, Socrates, and America’s founding fathers.
Packard draws on nearly three decades in education to explain why teaching children how to think, not what to think, is more crucial than ever in the age of technology and moral confusion. The pair trace the history of classical learning—from the trivium of grammar, logic, and rhetoric to the liberal arts tradition that formed leaders like the architects of the American Republic. They contrast this approach with today’s industrial-age schooling system, which too often prioritizes bureaucracy over character and test scores over truth.
The conversation also highlights the cultural and spiritual dimensions of education, exploring how beauty, virtue, and objective truth were once considered essential to forming free citizens. With insights from figures like Dr. William J. Bennett, former U.S. Secretary of Education and now provost of ACCEL Classical Academies, Dawson and Packard make a compelling case for reclaiming the lost art of education as the foundation of liberty itself.
This episode isn’t just about curriculum reform—it’s a call to arms in the generational battle for the hearts and minds of Alabama’s children, urging parents and educators alike to rebuild a free and flourishing Alabama grounded in truth, virtue, and classical wisdom.
In this thought-provoking episode, host Bryan Dawson welcomes Father Calvin Robinson—a British Anglican priest, commentator, and outspoken cultural critic—for a wide-ranging conversation about faith, politics, and the challenges facing Western civilization. The discussion opens with Dawson recounting how he met Father Calvin at a Turning Point USA event in Huntsville, Ala., where the two connected over shared convictions and a passion for defending truth in turbulent times.
Father Calvin shares his personal journey from the United Kingdom to the United States, explaining how his willingness to speak out on issues of national identity, faith, and culture has come at great personal and professional cost. Together, he and Brian explore the state of modern Britain, the rise of multiculturalism, and the tension between religious freedom, national values, and political correctness. Father Calvin describes what he views as the moral and spiritual decline of Western Europe, citing the erosion of Christian foundations and the emergence of parallel social and legal systems.
The conversation turns to broader cultural questions, including the role of men and women in society, the decline of family life and faith, and the moral consequences of abortion and secularism. Both Dawson and Father Calvin frame these trends as symptoms of a deeper spiritual crisis—one that transcends politics and calls for a renewal of moral courage and conviction.
Though controversial and at times unsettling, this episode offers a candid and unfiltered look at how two Christian thinkers interpret the West’s current crossroads. Listeners will hear strong opinions, passionate arguments, and sobering reflections on faith, culture, and the future of civilization.
Whether you agree or disagree with their views, this conversation invites reflection on what it means to preserve truth, tradition, and belief in an increasingly divided world.
Tune in for an unflinching dialogue on faith, culture, and the courage to stand firm in conviction—no matter the cost.
In this hard-hitting monologue episode of 1819 News: The Podcast, host Bryan Dawson, CEO of 1819 News, breaks down the "flea flicker" political plays being run on Alabama values. Using football as a metaphor, Dawson exposes how opponents manipulate public opinion to advance agendas that erode traditional values—warning listeners to spot the setup at the line of scrimmage before the snap.
Using previous major political failures as game film, he traces the path liberals have used to attain power. Talking points repeated ad nauseum, paying off people of influence, and employing the power of media is the flea flicker that our foes continue to use and we can't seem to stop them.
Dawson explains how this same strategy normalized LGBTQ ideology, starting with "love is love" talking points, turning into media saturation via shows like Will & Grace, which led to the Obergefell decision, which forced same sex marriage onto all 50 states. The downward spiral has turned into gay pride parades, the trans agenda, and now homosexual men adopting young boys. What could go wrong?
This downward spiral started with a few talking points being repeated ad nauseum and ended with gay couples renting women's wombs to create designer babies. In a democracy, the only thing you need to move your political objectives forward is to win the battle for public opinion and the left has mastered this play.
Next, Dawson reveals the Alabama Education Association's (AEA) rebrand from a liberal powerhouse—once dictating votes from the gallery under Paul Hubbert—to a "conservative Christian" entity cozying up to Republican supermajority legislators with big checks and conservative rhetoric. Despite being an affiliate of the radical Marxist NEA, the AEA infiltrated the GOP, stalled school choice, and is now pushing homeschool regulation after losing public school enrollment. Their conservative mask slipped with their communicated intent to regulate homeschoolers, and when they recently made a $100,000 donation to Marxist Mobile mayoral candidate, Barbara Drummond.
Finally, Dawson sounds the alarm on creeping Islamic influence, dubbing the Islamic activists in Hoover the emerging "Hoover Caliphate." Drawing parallels to Dearborn and Minneapolis, he cites grooming scandals in the UK, H-1B visa labor displacement, and a personal encounter with a young Muslim woman offering partnership and funds to 1819 News—rejecting it as a conquest play masked in shared "Republican values." This Islamic play is the play that is about to be run, and Dawson encourages everyone to see it for what it is so it can be stopped before putting any points on the board.
Dawson urges vigilance: don’t allow our kindness to be weaponized against us. Reject pay-for-play media, refuse tainted money, and call out infiltration before cultural subversion becomes demographic dominance.
You won't want to miss this powerful episode.
Overtime Segment: Crossing the Rubicon and Burning the Boats!
In this compelling and urgent conversation, Bryan Dawson of 1819 News sits down with Daily Wire culture reporter and bestselling author Megan Basham to discuss her explosive book, Shepherds for Sale: How Evangelical Leaders Traded the Truth for a Leftist Agenda. With sharp insight and meticulous research, Basham exposes how secular progressive forces have infiltrated seminaries, evangelical institutions, and churches across America—not merely to influence theology, but to reshape the political and cultural convictions of millions of Christians.
Basham lays out a troubling pattern: left-wing organizations, including those funded by George Soros and the Hewlett Foundation, are funneling money through “evangelical” front groups like the Evangelical Immigration Table—entities that appear grassroots but are in fact top-down influence campaigns. Their goal? To convince believers that leftist policies on immigration, climate, race, and even vaccine mandates are not just political stances, but biblical imperatives.
Dawson and Basham also explore the downfall of prominent evangelical leaders like Russell Moore, once a conservative icon, now seen as a mouthpiece for progressive causes. From promoting amnesty under the guise of “loving your neighbor” to urging COVID-19 vaccinations as a Christian duty, Moore’s trajectory serves as a case study in how influence, prestige, and foundation money have corrupted evangelical leadership.
Basham explains how even well-meaning pastors are unwittingly swept into these networks, signing onto statements and participating in campaigns that subtly (or overtly) push progressive policy—often without full awareness of who’s funding or driving the agenda.
The discussion is a wake-up call to American Christians. The church, as Basham and Dawson argue, is the final obstacle to full-scale cultural conquest by the radical left. If believers don’t recognize the war being waged within their own walls, they may lose not just theological clarity, but national influence and moral credibility. This episode calls for spiritual vigilance, cultural awareness, and a bold return to biblical truth in an age of compromise.
In a raw, heartfelt conversation, Alabama State Rep. Reed Ingram sits down to share a story that’s far more than politics—it’s a powerful testimony of redemption, resilience, and purpose. From living homeless on a beach in Pensacola as a child to becoming a successful entrepreneur and lawmaker, Ingram’s life is a vivid reminder that no past is too broken for God to redeem.
The episode kicks off with a lighthearted dive into the secret behind the famously delicious watermelons at Sweet Creek, Ingram’s popular farm market located right off the beach-bound highways of Alabama. But it quickly goes deeper as he opens up about a childhood scarred by addiction, instability, and years without schooling. Taken by his mother at age seven after his parents' divorce, he spent much of his early life sleeping in roadside parks and restrooms—avoiding crime by hiding in the safest places he could find.
At 17, after a brush with the law and a near-tragic incident involving a stolen car and the governor’s mansion, Reed found himself at a crossroads. What followed was a divine intervention—marrying the daughter of a preacher, starting a business with nothing but faith, and slowly rebuilding his life. By God’s guidance, he launched six successful businesses and became a steady presence in Alabama’s legislature.
Yet Reed has never forgotten where he came from—or the God who carried him. Sweet Creek is more than a fruit stand; it’s a ministry in motion. With 800 young applicants each year, he’s instilling work ethic, teaching life skills, and connecting families back to their roots in agriculture and community.
This interview is a wake-up call, reminding us of what’s possible when someone refuses to be defined by their past—and instead lets purpose, faith, and hard work define their future.
Listen in and be inspired.
In this powerful live episode of 1819 News: The Podcast, host Bryan Dawson sits down with Alabama Lt. Gov. Will Ainsworth at the Point Clear Republican Women’s Group for a raw, unfiltered conversation about courage, faith, and the future of Alabama. Known for his principled leadership and willingness to take on entrenched powers, Ainsworth discusses how he has transformed the historically “defanged” role of lieutenant governor into one of the most active and impactful positions in the state.
From championing school choice and cutting Alabama’s grocery tax, to fighting for military families and calling out unaccountable agencies like ALDOT and the Alabama High School Athletic Association, Ainsworth shares how conservative policies can move from talking points to real results. He highlights the importance of building coalitions, creating relationships, and standing on biblical values even when the backlash is fierce.
This episode also dives into some of the most pressing issues facing conservatives nationwide. Dawson and Ainsworth address the tragic attempted assassination of President Trump, the death of Charlie Kirk, and the growing hostility toward public figures who speak hard truths. Ainsworth outlines why his decision to step aside from a potential gubernatorial run to support Coach Tuberville was rooted in faith, family, and a long-term vision for Alabama.
More than just politics, this conversation is about a movement. Ainsworth speaks to the next generation of conservatives and Christians rising up on campuses across the nation—leaders inspired by Kirk and others—who are refusing to be silent in the face of cultural decay. He calls on listeners to be bold, to step into leadership, and to defend their values with both courage and compassion.
If you’ve ever wondered what real conservative leadership looks like in action—or how faith and principle can drive policy and shape a state’s future—this is an episode you won’t want to miss.
Dive into a provocative and eye-opening episode of 1819 News: The Podcast, hosted by CEO Bryan Dawson, as he sits down with filmmaker Chad O. Jackson to discuss his groundbreaking docuseries, The MLK Project, premiering October 3rd.
In this candid conversation, Jackson fearlessly challenges the widely accepted narrative surrounding Martin Luther King Jr., exposing a side of the civil rights icon that has been obscured by decades of public education and media portrayal. With meticulous research and historical receipts, Jackson unveils King’s ties to Marxist ideologies, his role in expanding federal power, and the subversive impact of the Civil Rights Movement on both black communities and American society.
Jackson, a plumber who moonlights as an independent historian and filmmaker, shares his journey of uncovering unsettling truths about King’s legacy, inspired by figures like the late Voddie Baucham. From King’s documented personal scandals to his strategic alignment with communist influencers, this episode dismantles the myth of MLK as a moral paragon, revealing him as a calculated figure who advanced a social gospel antithetical to Christian values.
Dawson and Jackson explore how the Civil Rights Movement shifted black culture away from self-reliance, as championed by Booker T. Washington, and toward government dependency, with devastating consequences still visible in urban communities today.
The discussion also delves into the broader implications of King’s legacy, from the erosion of state sovereignty to the infiltration of Marxist ideas into modern churches. Jackson’s docuseries promises to deliver a hard-hitting exposé, backed by primary sources and contributions from scholars like Dr. Carol Swain. Tune in to hear why Jackson believes we must confront these uncomfortable truths to reclaim a free and flourishing America.

Join host Bryan Dawson on this week’s edition of 1819 News: The Podcast for an engaging conversation with Officer Brandon Tatum, a prominent conservative voice and close friend of the late Charlie Kirk. In this deeply moving episode, Dawson and Tatum reflect on their providential connection, the legacy of Charlie Kirk, and the spiritual awakening his martyrdom has sparked across the nation.
Kirk’s life and death as a Christian martyr have left an indelible mark on millions. Tatum recounts his friendship with Kirk, from their work together at Turning Point USA to Kirk’s relentless drive and infectious faith, which inspired Tatum to push harder in his own mission.
Dawson and Tatum explore the spiritual weight of Kirk’s legacy, discussing how his death has galvanized believers and non-believers alike, with figures like JD Vance and Marco Rubio boldly proclaiming Christ in public forums. They marvel at the global reach of Kirk’s message, amplified by social media, and challenge listeners to respond to this moment of revival.
Tatum doesn’t hold back, calling out churches that fail to acknowledge Kirk’s martyrdom while contrasting their silence with the outpouring of grief and action following his death.

In this powerful episode of 1819 News: The Podcast, host Bryan Dawson, CEO of 1819 News, sits down with Pastor Rich Lusk of Trinity Presbyterian Church in Birmingham, Ala., to honor the life and martyrdom of Charlie Kirk, the bold Christian leader and Turning Point USA founder tragically assassinated for his unapologetic defense of the gospel, Christian civilization, marriage, life, and biblical masculinity/femininity.
The conversation kicks off with heartfelt tributes to Kirk's integrated faith—seamlessly weaving evangelism with cultural and political engagement on hostile university campuses, the epicenter of leftist indoctrination. Kirk's mantra, "Prove me wrong," invited debate as a peaceful alternative to violence, but ultimately, his faithfulness made him a target. As Lusk reflects, Kirk exemplified the full Great Commission: not just baptizing souls, but teaching nations to obey all of Christ's commands, building a God-glorifying civilization under Jesus' lordship over every sphere of life—from marriage to politics.
Dawson and Lusk unpack the crisis of cowardice plaguing our culture, drawing from Scripture and history. They contrast biblical courage—rooted in fearing God above man—with modern failings: the emasculation of men, turning them into "beta males" ashamed of God-given aggression needed to guard the garden (Genesis 3); an idolatrous "safetyism" exposed during COVID that sacrifices liberty for security; and a therapeutic church culture that glorifies brokenness over repentance and strength.
They critique how this infiltrates pulpits, counseling, and criminal justice—excusing sin as "trauma" and releasing criminals without retribution. The litmus test? If your pastor hasn't declared war on progressivism, feminism, transgenderism, and Marxism, it's time for a new church. Amid a "vibe shift," they celebrate rising Christian influence: leftists now face consequences for mocking Kirk's death, signaling power wielded for good, not neutrality.
Lusk praises Dawson's gift for applying Scripture to all of life, urging listeners to reclaim courage for a free, flourishing Alabama. In the overtime, the two discuss the biblical case for capital punishment and wielding the sword.
Tune in for an exhortation to strength, repentance, and bold faithfulness.
In this episode of 1819 News: The Podcast, host and CEO Bryan Dawson sits down with Alabama State Sen. Arthur Orr, Chairman of the Education Trust Fund, for an in-depth conversation on the state's educational landscape, political evolution, and pathways to prosperity. Hailing from North Alabama's rapidly growing District 3, encompassing Morgan County and parts of Limestone and Madison Counties, Orr shares his personal journey—from his roots in a family with deep Alabama ties, to his time in the Peace Corps in Nepal, Habitat for Humanity in South Asia, and his legal career before entering politics in 2006.
Orr recounts his challenging entry into the Senate during a Democrat-dominated era, the pivotal 2010 Republican takeover, and the ethics reforms that followed high-profile scandals. As chair of the education budget, he addresses Alabama's persistent education challenges, noting a near-doubling of funding since 2017 under Gov. Kay Ivey. Despite criticisms that increased spending hasn't always yielded results, Orr highlights legislative-driven reforms like the Literacy Act (preventing social promotion for non-readers), the Numeracy Act (boosting math scores from 52nd nationally to the 30s), and the Choose Act, which introduces school choice and competition. He praises these initiatives for originating in the legislature rather than the State School Board, emphasizing accountability and measurable progress.
The discussion delves into the Alabama Education Association's diminished influence compared to its heyday under Paul Hubbert, and also Orr's views on higher education, including prioritizing in-state students, scrutinizing out-of-state tuition benefits, and enforcing compliance with laws banning divisive concepts (DEI). He warns of funding cuts for non-compliant institutions and critiques leftist biases in university curricula, advocating for meritocracy and race-neutral policies.
Orr also touches on controversial topics like the Magic City Acceptance Academy, suggesting oversight by the state charter commission and potential use of the "power of the purse." Finally, he spotlights his "success sequence" bill—now law—teaching middle schoolers three research-backed steps to escape poverty: graduate high school, get a job, and avoid out-of-wedlock children, boasting a 96% success rate.
Tune in for an honest, forward-looking dialogue on reforming Alabama's education system, fostering conservative values, and building a brighter future. Whether you're a parent, educator, or policy enthusiast, this episode offers invaluable insights into the decisions shaping the Yellowhammer State.
In this special edition of 1819 News: The Podcast, 1819 News CEO Bryan Dawson co-hosts a Town Hall with the Point Clear Republican Women, featuring Congressman Barry Moore and his wife Heather.
The conversation hits a wide array of emotions as Barry and Heather give their testimony of standing up to weaponized prosecution and the effect that it had on their family. They share how God called them into running for the soon to be vacated United States Senate Seat.
Barry also talks about what it has been like to serve as a Congressman during arguably the most pivotal point in our nation's history. They discuss the Big Beautiful Bill and recent happenings in DC as well.
Passion and providence show out in this episode and it's one you don't want to miss.
CORRECTION: In the interview, Bryan said that Congressman Moore beat Jeff Coleman in 2020 and in 2022. Jeff Coleman attempted to run in 2022, made campaign commercials and was rolling out his campaign but filed too late to appear on the ballot, allowing Moore to run unopposed.
In this compelling episode of 1819 News: The Podcast, host Bryan Dawson, CEO of 1819 News, sits down with Cam Ward, Director of the Alabama Bureau of Pardons and Paroles, to tackle the critical issue of prison reentry and public safety in Alabama.
With a shared passion for balancing a tough-on-crime stance with practical solutions, Ward and Dawson dive into the innovative Parole Reentry Program (PREP) Center in Perry County. Ward shares how the program equips formerly incarcerated individuals with job training, mental health support, and substance abuse treatment to reduce recidivism and transform lives. From welding to treeline trimming, the PREP Center partners with private sector companies to provide real career opportunities, boasting a 0% recidivism rate among its 450+ graduates.
Dawson draws from his own experience with incarceration and reentry, while Ward brings his experience as a former legislator with a deep understanding of Alabama’s prison challenges to the conversation. The two discuss the importance of addressing underlying issues like addiction and mental health to break the cycle of crime. They also explore the “three-legged stool” of reentry—mental health, substance abuse treatment, and job skills—while emphasizing the power of second chances, family reconnection, and community support.
Tune in for an inspiring conversation about forward-thinking solutions that enhance public safety, empower individuals, and address Alabama’s workforce needs.

We have watched liberals run the same play for decades. They find a beautiful place, move there en masse, and begin taking over the local government only to turn it into a hell hole. Whether it's turning the streets of San Francisco into a public outhouse or flipping Colorado from a reliably red state into one with an openly homosexual governor where your children will be taken if you don't want them to be transitioned to the opposite gender, the progressives have been very "successful" in finding gorgeous destinations and destroying them.
A friend and trusted source reached out to 1819 News to say that he believed that to be happening in the Lake Martin area, so this week Bryan Dawson brings on Alexander City Mayor Woody Baird to hear his story and vision for keeping Alexander City and the Lake Martin area conservative.
Baird served in the special forces and owned a gun store before running for elected office and says he was motivated to do so by seeing the millions he was paying in taxes to the city be wasted.
Baird has been outraised in the race and says that old money liberals are funding his challenger in an effort to bring their worldview and ways of doing things to Alexander City.
Take a listen and see what you think. Are liberals really trying to take over Lake Martin?!?
The event was hosted by 1819 News and featured incumbent Mayor Tony Kennon and challenger and City Councilman Jeff Boyd at the Orange Beach Event Center.
The debate was a great platform for both to clarify their policy positions, to explain what fuels them and their campaigns, and also speak man to man.
The moderator was our own editor-in-chief, Jeff Poor, who asked questions on infrastructure and growth, schools, the candidates' stances on important issues, annexations, roadways and bridges, finances and public safety.
In this episode of 1819 News: The Podcast, host Bryan Dawson, CEO of 1819 News, sits down with Emily Jones, Director of Moms for Liberty Alabama, to discuss pressing issues in education, parental rights, and conservative activism in the state. Jones, who is also running for the Alabama State School Board against incumbent Wayne Reynolds, shares her passion for empowering parents and combating bureaucratic overreach.
The conversation kicks off with the recent medical age of consent legislation, which raised the threshold from 14 to 16 despite fierce opposition from medical associations and state health departments. Jones highlights hidden gems in the bill, effective Oct. 1, prohibiting schools from providing mental health counseling, suicide prevention, or bullying programs to children 16 and under without parental consent. This addresses loopholes allowing ideological indoctrination, such as LGBTQ-related discussions, and calls for urgent updates to state education standards by board members like Kelly Mooney and Alan Long.
Dawson and Jones then delve into the FOCUS Act, a new law banning cell phones and wireless devices in classrooms to enhance student focus and academic performance. Jones defends it against parental rights critiques, citing studies linking device access to rising anxiety, depression, and distractions. Drawing from Jonathan Haidt's The Coddling of the American Mind, she argues that removing screens for school hours benefits mental health and learning, while respecting family choices outside class.
Throughout, they emphasize building conservative coalitions to advance bold policies, celebrating wins like school choice despite imperfections, and urging parents to reclaim responsibility from government entities. Jones recounts Moms for Liberty events, including a successful fundraiser with Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene amid protests, and stresses civic engagement amid Alabama's "red state" challenges.
Join 1819 News CEO Bryan Dawson for a gripping episode of 1819 News: The Podcast as he sits down with retired Department of Homeland Security Special Agent Angelo Fermo. Hailing from Daphne, Ala., Fermo shares riveting tales from his extensive career combating drug cartels, sex trafficking, and immigration challenges.
This episode dives deep into law enforcement’s toughest battles, blending heart-pounding "war stories" with personal reflections that shaped Fermo’s journey from a tumultuous childhood to a decorated federal agent. Fermo recounts his early life, including his father’s life as a drug smuggler, offering a raw perspective on how those experiences fueled his drive to uphold justice. From undercover operations and wiretapping drug lords to confronting the darkest corners of human trafficking, Fermo’s stories are both chilling and inspiring.
The conversation takes a sobering turn as Dawson and Fermo discuss high-profile cases like the Bibb County sex-trafficking ring and the Epstein scandal, exploring the complexities of justice, systemic failures, and the urgent need for stronger laws against predators. With a mix of humor, camaraderie, and unflinching honesty, the two reflect on the emotional toll of facing humanity’s worst evils, the importance of protecting the vulnerable, and the challenges of navigating a changing law enforcement landscape.
From tales of a monkey smuggled with cocaine to the heartbreak of rescuing exploited children, this episode is a rollercoaster of emotions and insights.

Join host Bryan Dawson, CEO of 1819 News, and investigative journalist Apryl Marie Fogel for a compelling episode of 1819 News: The Podcast, where fearless reporting meets unapologetic truth-telling.
This episode dives into the heart of 1819 News’ mission to hold the powerful accountable, no matter who they are, and exposes the challenges of delivering hard truths in a polarized world.
The episode kicks off with a candid recounting of how Bryan and Apryl Marie first connected—spoiler: it wasn’t exactly a warm introduction. Three years ago, as 1819 News emerged as a bold new media outlet, rumors swirled about its funding and intentions. Apryl Marie, then an independent journalist, was rumored to be writing a “hit piece” on the organization. A single phone call from Bryan, offering transparency (minus donor names), turned suspicion into a mutual respect that later proved pivotal. Apryl Marie's relentless questioning put Bryan in the hot seat, but her suggestion that Jeff Poor lead 1819 News’ editorial team planted a seed that transformed the outlet’s trajectory.
Fast forward to the explosive Bubba Copeland story, where 1819 News faced national backlash for exposing a public figure’s misconduct. While the media vilified 1819, Apryl Marie emerged as an unexpected ally, passionately defending their work on radio stations across Alabama. Her stance wasn’t personal—it was about truth. This galvanizing moment solidified 1819’s resolve to pursue fearless journalism, no matter the cost.
Apryl Marie’s investigative work takes center stage as she discusses her exposés on institutions like Samford University, where she uncovered a troubling disconnect between its Christian branding and DEI-driven practices. From professors promoting radical ideologies to programs undermining the faith-based values parents expect, Apryl Marie’s reporting reveals how sacred institutions can betray trust. Bryan and Apryl Marie emphasize that their critiques stem from love for Samford’s potential, not hate, and a desire to protect the next generation from ideological overreach.
Tune in for an unfiltered look at the courage, conviction, and relentless pursuit of truth that define 1819 News. Whether it’s taking on entrenched powers or navigating friendly fire, Bryan and Apryl Marie prove that doing what’s right often means standing alone—until the truth prevails.
The COVID lockdowns pulled back the curtain on every level of our society. We
quickly found out who has the courage to stand on principle and who caved to the tyrannical forces of power. In a deeper way, we came to see what our leaders, friends, and family really valued. The results were deeply troubling.
For many of us, our faith is our core strength and motivator. It shapes our every action and inaction. As faith is our guide, we need our pastors, our shepherds, to be courageous in the face of the prowling wolves.
Unfortunately, we saw a lot of pastors and priests waver in the face of authoritarian policies. In the wake of the lockdowns, there’s been a quiet reshuffling as Christians seek out shepherds they can trust to stand strong. As such, the question of whether someone should find another church has become increasingly prevalent.
Pastor Rich Lusk discusses this issue with Bryan Dawson, helping listeners evaluate and discern whether they should stay or find a new church home. It’s not an easy or light decision and, thankfully, Pastor Lusk gives some great tips and questions we should all consider.

In this 1819 News podcast episode, host Bryan Dawson interviews Rick Burgess, author of Men Don't Run in the Rain: A Son's Reflections on Life, Faith, and an Iconic Father. The discussion centers on Burgess's book, which weaves personal anecdotes about his father, with biblical lessons to inspire men, particularly young men, seeking masculine role models.
Burgess shares how his father, a humble and influential football coach, taught him life lessons like accountability, perseverance, and steadfastness, encapsulated in the titular phrase, "Men don't run in the rain." These stories include tidbits about his father's disdain for excuses during a rainy football game and his unique stance against soccer as a "communist plot," each highlighting Burgess' character and humor.
Burgess also connects these stories to scriptural principles, like repentance and striving for righteousness, making the book accessible yet profound for both secular and faith-driven audiences. The podcast particularly addresses the modern church's perceived feminization and the need for strong, masculine examples.
Burgess concludes with a gospel presentation, urging listeners to place faith in Christ, repent, and pursue spiritual growth.
The overtime segment shifts to politics, discussing Tommy Tuberville's potential gubernatorial run, Alabama's political corruption, and national issues like the Epstein files.
Uncle Tom is largely used as a derogatory slander nowadays, but why? Behind the Bible, Uncle Tom's Cabin was the most purchased and read book of the 19th century, and Uncle Tom was depicted as a sacrificial servant who gave his life to save the lives of others.
This week Bryan Dawson sits down with Dallas Terrell, a Personal Trainer in Huntsville who recently authored a book, "Who Kidnapped Uncle Tom and Why It Matters?"
Uncle Tom's Cabin played a pivotal role in Terrell's early life in liberal St. Louis where he watched Democrats destroy everything they touched. Terrell was always one to ask "Why?" His family's response was to hand him a book. The constant questioning and reading of countless books led him into his current vocation, as well as his conservative and theological stances.
Terrell’s father died in an accident when he was three, so he was raised by a strong conservative mother who refused government assistance. He was blessed to have many men in the community that treated him like a son and shaped him into the man he is today.
This is a great conversation that offers a unique perspective on black history from a conservative perspective.
Alabama Attorney General Steve Marshall joins 1819 News President and CEO Bryan Dawson for a townhall event with the Point Clear Republican Women in Fairhope, Alabama. The two gentlemen discuss everything from Alabama’s strict abortion laws and their relation to the overturning of Roe v. Wade, the importance of parental rights—particularly when it comes to medical consent and the books children can check out of our libraries—and the pressing issue of transgender rights and their influence on the youngest members of our society.
Regarding the latter issue, Marshall highlights the key role Alabama has played in fighting back against the onslaught of gender ideology nationwide. He specifically credits 1819 News for shining the light on the legal wrangling involved in the issue, bringing knowledge and attention to the subject in order to help common sense prevail.
The podcast also features Q&A from a packed house on issues that local Alabamians care about.
It’s no secret that Alabama has an extreme issue with inner city violence. The solution to these issues goes beyond anything legislation can do, and this week's guest, Sen. Will Barfoot, discusses the fact that this issue, as well as many others we are trying to fix with legislation, are really heart issues.
While issues of evil indeed stem from a lack of heart change, the problems that they cause society are very real, so laws need to be put in place to restrain evil and promote good.
Sen. Barfoot joins Bryan Dawson this week to discuss legislation he has worked on the last few years to do exactly that, and to share his story of how he got into politics.
They also discuss what it might look like if U.S. Sen. Tuberville were to become governor.
In this compelling 1819 News podcast episode, host Bryan Dawson sits down with Alabama State Sen. Lance Bell to discuss his journey from a hardworking upbringing in Cook Springs to a pivotal role in the Alabama Senate.
Born into a family of service—his father a retired Army Depot worker and sheriff’s deputy, his mother a teacher’s aide and bus driver—Bell’s roots shaped his commitment to community and resilience. A former sheriff’s deputy and narcotics officer, Bell shares how his law enforcement experience informs his legislative priorities, particularly his sponsorship of the crime package bill, which grants immunity to officers acting within their duties, addressing the challenges they face in split-second decisions.
Bell recounts his stand against a gambling bill, resisting intense pressure alongside Sen. Chris Elliott to block earmarks that he believes undermine Alabama’s fiscal priorities. He advocates for a cleaner approach to gambling legislation, emphasizing funds for education, infrastructure, and the general fund over special interests. Bell also reflects on the Senate’s procedural hurdles, including Democratic filibusters that stalled conservative bills, and expresses hope for rule changes to streamline future sessions.
Touching on the 2026 gubernatorial race, Bell shares his thoughts on Coach Tommy Tuberville’s candidacy, praising his bold, no-nonsense leadership style while acknowledging Lt. Gov. Will Ainsworth’s contributions.
From his unexpected entry into politics to navigating Montgomery’s political landscape, Bell’s story is one of conviction and courage. Join us for an insightful conversation about Alabama’s challenges, leadership, and the path forward.
Overtime: President Trump's first 120 Days and what we can do to bring that energy to Montgomery.
There are some people in Montgomery who seem to always be on the right side of everything. Sen. Larry Stutts is one of those guys.
This week Stutts joins 1819 News: The Podcast to tell his story of becoming a doctor and then running for office.
Since COVID, the value of medical expertise from those who have not been compromised by the medical industrial complex has become crystal clear. Stutts has been able to expertly address and speak into countless areas because of his medical background, although his commonsense approach usually finds him at odds with the medical establishment in the state.
Whether it is holding the State Health Officer accountable or advocating for the medical age of consent to be consistent with every other area of law and the entirety of our nation’s history, Stutts is a strong voice for the people when medical tyranny is rising.
Stutts was also a major proponent of school choice, and he discusses the popularity of the recent school choice legislation and what it might mean for the state.
Overtime Segment: Trump's first 120 Days, and how do we bring that energy to Montgomery?
Populism has taken the reins of the Republican Party and that is a good thing.
Decorated military veteran and content machine, Troy Carico, joins the podcast this week to discuss the forthcoming Pax Americana under Emperor Donald John Trump. Drawing from his 22 years of military service and intelligence expertise, Carico champions Trump’s unapologetic embrace of realpolitik—a pragmatic, power-driven approach to international relations rooted in the strategies of Machiavelli, Bismarck, and Kissinger.
He argues that Trump’s America-first bravado has reshaped the global stage, prioritizing national interests through bold diplomacy and military might, rejecting globalist ideals, and emphasizing strength over appeasement in a world of competing powers.
While acknowledging criticisms of Trump’s approach as isolationist, Carico defends it as a necessary retrenchment, leveraging America’s economic and military dominance to secure prosperity and cultural ascendancy. He envisions a “nouveau Pax Americana,” where the U.S. stands as a fearless colossus, balancing fear and respect as Machiavelli advised.
Carico’s fervent call to action urges patriots to embrace this era of American supremacy, celebrating a leader who wields realpolitik with conviction. His insights offer a provocative perspective on Trump’s legacy and America’s role in a turbulent world, making this episode a must-listen for those intrigued by geopolitics and national pride.
"I was able to tell Elon Musk something he didn't know."
That is an incredible quote shared by U.S. Rep. Gary Palmer on this episode as he discusses his vision for the Western Hemisphere Prosperity and Security Alliance.
Much like the space race in the ’60s, there is a race to secure rare earth minerals for semiconductor chips and other digital hardware. This is absolutely necessary for our national security. Currently, we are completely dependent on other nations, many of whom are not our allies and most of which are actually adversarial like China, for our needs in this realm.
Palmer shares his vision for how we can solve this problem, recounting conversations he has had with Elon Musk and others in Trump's inner-circle about the topic.
We also hear Palmer's personal story—everything from playing for Bear Bryant, to starting the Alabama Policy Institute, and then winning as the major underdog in a congressional race.
Esquire Magazine was recently awarded a Pulitzer Prize for a factually bereft, emotionally driven editorial about the life and death of Bubba Copeland in which "right wing media" was blamed for his death. That "right wing media" of course was 1819 News. The Esquire article failed to tell the full story or any of the details of Copeland's sexually deviant extracurricular activities.
In October of 2023, a trusted source told 1819 News that the Pastor of First Baptist Church of Phenix City, who was also the Mayor of Smith Station, Ala., was leading a double life as an online trans pornstar. A very bizarre lead, indeed, but things
turned out to be far worse. Copeland wasn't just dressing up in his wife's clothes and taking pictures, he was a public figure posting homoerotic slasher fiction on public social media pages under an alter ego. He was creating memes encouraging children to transition their gender using pictures from children in the community.
1819 News published several articles exposing these things and it soon became a national story. The Lee County Sheriff's Office went to do a wellness check on Copeland, and as they turned their lights on to pull him over, he sped off, getting into a chase with law enforcement. When the chase ended, Copeland exited the car brandishing a pistol and pulled the trigger, ending his life.
This was a tragic ending, but an ending that Copeland himself chose.
Unfortunately, the national—and international—media blamed 1819 News, reporter Craig Monger, editor Jeff Poor, and CEO Bryan Dawson, all of whom were doxed by unhinged liberals posting their home addresses and family pictures online. The lunatics relentlessly attacked all 1819 News staff and their families, trying everything they could to cancel anyone associated with the organization.
It didn't work; the fire only galvanized the team. 1819 News didn't lose a single donor or employee, and the adversity brought everyone together and made the organization stronger than ever.
Upon Esquire posting the announcement of their Pulitzer Prize to Twitter/X, the post was immediately Community Noted with the following: "The article that was awarded a Pulitzer prize trivializes the fact that former mayor ‘Bubba’ Copeland used photos of women and children to create transgender fetish content, and even wrote a sexual fantasy about murdering a woman in order to steal her identity."
The comments section was even less forgiving. Esquire was "ratioed" as the kids say.
Dawson brings on Craig Monger, the author of the original Bubba Copeland news stories that led to all this, to discuss the Pulitzer Prize and the details of the original reporting.
They also discuss legislation that would have protected children from LGBTQ ideology in the classroom dying in the Senate and the overall obvious attempt by progressives to steal the hearts, minds, and souls of our children to fill their ranks and what we can do about it.
Join Bryan Dawson, CEO of 1819 News and host of the 1819 News Podcast, in a compelling conversation with Alabama State Rep. Susan DuBose, a dedicated legislator who is making a difference in Montgomery despite the challenges of state governance. DuBose shares her journey from grassroots political engagement to the Alabama House of Representatives, discussing her commitment to stay true to her principles while navigating the complexities of legislative work.
This episode highlights DuBose’s landmark legislation, including the “What is a Woman Act,” which defines male and female by biological terms to protect women’s rights in sports and scholarships. She recounts the resistance faced, the need to educate colleagues, and the pivotal support from Gov. Kay Ivey, who made the bill a priority and signed it into law.
DuBose also tackles the Religious Release Time bill, a constitutional program allowing students to attend off-campus religious classes during electives, which faced unexpected opposition from school board and superintendent associations despite widespread parental support.
Additionally, DuBose discusses her efforts to raise Alabama’s medical consent age from 14 to 16, a significant step toward restoring parental rights in medical decisions. She shares heartbreaking stories of parents sidelined by current laws, underscoring the need for common-sense legislation that prioritizes the majority while addressing exceptions.
With a nod to future goals, including tackling DEI in higher education, DuBose’s passion for her constituents and faith-driven approach shine through. She reflects on the camaraderie among legislators, the power of prayer in the Statehouse, and her vision to extend religious freedom to Alabama’s schools.
Tune in to hear how DuBose is fighting for Alabama’s values, supported by 1819 News, the state’s only citizen-funded news outlet. Visit 1819news.com to support their mission and stay informed.
Join us for an electrifying episode of our podcast as we sit down with AJ Rice, the dynamic CEO of Publius PR and a self-described “anti-woke samurai.” Rice pulls back the curtain on the high-stakes world of political public relations, sharing his experiences working with some of the most influential figures in the MAGA movement, including Judge Jeanine Pirro, Donald Trump Jr., and a roster of disruptors shaping the second Trump administration.
Rice dives into the dichotomy of the PR landscape in Washington, D.C., exposing the “deep state” firms that vacuum up money while the American people are left in the dust. He recounts his bold decision to back Trump early on, a move that led to bestselling books and a front-row seat in the MAGA cinematic universe.
From navigating the publishing world to working with Trump’s publishing house and Vivek Ramaswamy’s campaign, Rice reveals how his firm became a hub for disruptors like Pam Bondi, Tulsi Gabbard, and Dan Bongino, who are now shaking up the political establishment.
Beyond PR, Rice discusses his own literary contributions, “The Woking Dead” and “The White Privilege Album,” which he describes as humorous yet incisive counterattacks against wokeism and cultural Marxism. Drawing from his Philadelphia roots and love for comedy, Rice uses irreverent humor to challenge political correctness, defend Western civilization, and dismantle the race hustle.
He argues that terms like “white privilege” are coded attacks on the middle class and nuclear family, designed to erode the foundations of a free society.
With a nod to his mentors, including Lee Habeeb, Rice shares his formula for engaging audiences: inform, educate, and entertain. He warns of the dangers of controlling language and thought, likening modern wokeism to historical authoritarianism. As he prepares to release the third volume of his series, Rice leaves listeners with a call to resist cultural erasure and embrace the disruptive spirit of Trump’s second term.
Tune in for a no-holds-barred conversation that’s as entertaining as it is thought-provoking!

Childhood obesity. Sexual indoctrination. Medical tyranny. The attacks on our children are real, and we're fighting back. Join us as we uncover the battles reshaping our state and nation with State Rep. Mack Butler.
Continuing with our pattern of bringing on good folks doing good work in Montgomery, this week 1819 News CEO Bryan Dawson sits down with Butler to hear his story and learn about some of the legislation he is working on this session.
Butler is out front on some of the most controversial bills happening in the legislature, like his bill restricting the ADPH from getting tens of millions of dollars to advertise experimental medical treatments that are neither safe nor effective. But these bills are really just common sense. Butler says if the big pharmaceutical companies want to advertise, that is one subject, but why is our government funding these ads all over the state, especially now that we’re several years removed from the "pandemic"?
Butler also has a piece of legislation that will prevent sexual indoctrination in our public schools. Again, common sense, but extremely controversial. The bill is making serious headway, and if it passes, educators will not be allowed to talk about sexual orientation, gender identity, or other sexual subjects in the classroom.
The conversation then turns to RFK, MAHA, and what the powers-that-be are doing to our foods. Grateful that there is so much momentum in D.C. right now, Butler says that we are fortunate to be living in what will be written about in history books decades from now.
Dawson ends the conversation by asking Butler what it will take to get the momentum in D.C. to Montgomery so that our Republican Supermajority government begins to move towards a more conservative way of doing things.
You don't want to miss this incredible conversation!
When the Lord leads you to share the gospel with someone or tell them about Him, you never know where it might lead.
Today, we're bringing on Kyle Collins, a former Auburn football player who the Lord told to pray for and speak to a really bitter and angry young man on the team named Chette Williams. Those attempts to reach Chette eventually led to him receiving Christ.
The incredible story of how these two men's lives, who could not be more different, were interwoven in times of joy and hardship is one worth listening to and one that will encourage you to share your faith when prompted by the Spirit in the future.
Brother Chette Willimas went on to be the Chaplain for Auburn's football team and the Director of Auburn's chapter of Fellowship of Christian Athletes. His ministry was incredibly impactful and Coach Tuberville said his success would not have been possible without the ministry of Chette Williams.
Brother Chette passed away last year and at his funeral the large crowd was asked to stand if Chette Williams had led them to the Lord or baptized them. 70% of the crowd stood.
Collins took the reins of the Freedom Cowboys, formerly the Rocket City Cowboys, a homeschool football team based in Huntsville, from Stan McDonald 20 years ago and has been working tirelessly to evangelize and disciple young men through football ever since. It's an interesting mix of homeschoolers to at-risk youth that make up the team and no matter their background they are being introduced to biblical manhood and having their character developed through adversity.
This is an incredible episode where God's providence is on full display.
"He that ruleth over men must be just, ruling in the fear of God." - 2 Samuel 23:3
This Scripture describes this week’s podcast guest extremely well. Very few people in state government, or in government anywhere, have such a fine-tuned, biblically-rooted understanding of how the Word of God comes to bear on civilization.
State Rep. Ernie Yarbrough joins Bryan Dawson this week to tell his story about how he came into politics, and then to share about some important legislation that he's introduced this session.
A son of Alabama, Yarbrough grew up as a homeschooler and witnessed the unthinkable when his father was imprisoned for refusing to pay taxes because those tax dollars were assisting in the murder of innocent children in the womb. He also saw friends put in prison for homeschooling back in the ’80s. These things shaped Yarbrough, leaving an indelible mark in his mind and heart that drove him into the political arena.
Yarbrough has dropped several good bills this legislative session, with the Laken Riley Act the most likely to pass. This legislation will work and partner with U.S. Sen. Katie Britt's similarly named legislation at the federal level to give local law enforcement the jurisdiction and authority necessary to remove illegal aliens from our community.
Yarbrough has also introduced legislation—the Prenatal Equal Protection Act—seeking to give unborn children the same right to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness that children out of the womb receive. He answers all the tough questions about this legislation, as it is a hot topic around the nation, while discussing other legislation he has introduced as well.
This is an extremely informative and entertaining episode of 1819 News: The Podcast that you won't want to miss!

Election integrity, immigration, and inflation are the issues that matter most to the people of Alabama, and there are folks in Montgomery making decisions on those things right now.
This week we're bringing one of them on the podcast: Rep. Jamie Kiel.
Kiel has been a conservative stalwart in the Alabama House for seven years now, consistently voting against tax increases, medical marijuana, and gambling expansion despite the tremendous pressure from leadership to vote for those things.
Kiel is well known as an incredible businessman, great husband, and wonderful father, which 1819 CEO Bryan Dawson believes should all be prerequisites to running for office.
In this episode, Kiel shares his story of growing up in Alabama and getting into politics, as well as some stories of fighting bad legislation. Kiel and Dawson also dive into ballot harvesting, the effect of immigration on small towns, and what the Alabama Legislature is doing as far as tax cuts to alleviate the financial burden Alabamians are feeling.
This week's podcast is another Alabama business spotlight, this time on Nathan Cox, the dynamic founder of 68 Ventures. Cox, a seasoned entrepreneur and storyteller, dives deep into his remarkable journey, tracing his path from humble beginnings to building a powerhouse development and investment company along Alabama’s Gulf Coast. The podcast blends inspiration, practical insights, and old-fashioned grit, offering listeners an unfiltered look at what it takes to turn ambition into action.
The episode kicks off with Cox recounting his early days, fresh from serving in the U.S. Marine Corps, where discipline and resilience became the bedrock of his character. Returning home amidst the 2008 Great Recession, he saw opportunity where others saw chaos. Launching Bellator Real Estate & Development that year, Cox capitalized on distressed assets, assembling investment groups to fuel his vision. Podcast host Bryan Dawson probes into this bold move, and Cox reveals how his father—a pioneering developer in Baldwin County—inspired him to bet on the Gulf Coast’s future. His storytelling shines as he describes the adrenaline of those early risks, setting the stage for his entrepreneurial ascent.
As the conversation unfolds, Cox details the founding of Truland Homes in 2011, which grew into South Alabama’s largest private homebuilder before its 2023 acquisition by D.R. Horton. He shares candid lessons on scaling a business, from navigating supply chain hurdles to fostering a purpose-driven team culture. The host draws out Cox’s philosophy of “betting on yourself,” a recurring theme as he discusses 68 Ventures’ evolution into a billion-dollar enterprise, with over 10,000 single-family lots developed and a thriving multifamily division. Listeners gain actionable takeaways on leadership, vertical integration, and seizing market gaps.
The episode crescendos with Cox reflecting on his transition from CEO to Chairman in 2023, passing the torch to new leadership while staying true to his core values—faith, effort, and courage. Interspersed with lighthearted anecdotes about family life and his love for competition, Cox’s warmth and authenticity resonate. Perfect for aspiring entrepreneurs, this podcast delivers a masterclass in resilience, vision, and the power of betting big, leaving listeners motivated to carve their own paths.
Richard Scrushy is back in the news and is asserting that exculpatory evidence was intentionally withheld which would have exonerated him from an unjust conviction back in 2006.
In the early 2000s, Scrushy, the CEO of HealthSouth Corporation, was hit with charges of fraud and bribery. Acquitted of the fraud charges, he was eventually found guilty of paying $500K into then Gov. Don Siegelman's education lottery fund in exchange for a seat on the state's Certificate of Need Board.
This week host Bryan Dawson brings on Scrushy for an exclusive interview to discuss his assertion regarding the exculpatory evidence being withheld, as well as hearing more about Scrushy's trip to prison and what he's been doing since his release.

Talk radio has been the one bastion for truth conservatives have relied upon for decades. While it may be true that nationally syndicated radio shows are going the way of the dodo since Limbaugh's death, that is not true for local, news/talk radio.
This week Bryan sits down with Alabama's biggest news/talk radio host, Leland Whaley, of Leland Live on Talk 99.5 in Birmingham to hear his story as well as discuss some of the pressing issues and topics of our day.
Leland recently wrote an opinion article for 1819 News titled "We are closing the factory in D.C.", in which he compared the mass firings and closings in D.C. to the way textile factories and other blue-collar factories were shut down because of poor governance. There was no sympathy from the bureaucrats for the blue-collar folks losing their jobs because of the globalization of our economy, yet they are begging for sympathy now that the D.C. factory is being shut down.
This rolls into the conversation of how the forgotten working class was the catalyst for this new political revival we are seeing.
Leland also offers a unique perspective of the Russia/Ukraine conflict that you've likely never heard. He believes we are in a race with China for rare earth minerals that will make the moon race look like child's play.
You don't want to miss this incredibly informative and entertaining interview, tune in now.
OVERTIME: Trump's America and what Leland expects to see in President Trump's first term.
1819 News has no problem calling out both bad actors and bad things in state government. That being said, we think it is just as important to highlight good people doing good things.
This week 1819 News CEO Bryan Dawson sits down with State Senator Chris Elliott who has consistently been a strong voice for good in the Alabama Senate. That includes being a “no” vote, despite tremendous pressure, on the terrible gambling legislation last session.
In this podcast you will hear about how Sen Elliott got into politics as well as some of the things he's working on this session.
From reeling in occupational licensing and out of control state agency boards to speaking up for veterans and sensible infrastructure spending, Elliott is consistently doing what's right no matter the push back.
Dawson and Elliott also discuss prison conditions as well as the mismanagement of building new prisons and how that can be fixed moving forward.

The Department of Government Efficiency has been the primary topic in the national news cycle since Jan. 20th.
You may have thought to yourself, Alabama needs a DOGE. Well, you're in luck because the Alabama Policy Institute (API) is working on that exact thing with ALDOGE.
API has been around for over 35 years working towards limited government, free markets, and strong families in Alabama. Now they have a unique opportunity to replicate the national trend of identifying and eliminating waste and abuse in government.
This week Bryan Dawson is joined by API President and CEO Stephanie Smith to discuss ALDOGE and other things going on in our state government.
You might be surprised to find that under Gov. Kay Ivey, the combined state budgets have doubled with surpluses nearly every year since she has been in office. A budget surplus means they took more money from you than you needed.
You might also be surprised to find that a lone Democrat, State Rep. Anthony Daniels, is working to cut taxes for working class families, while those in leadership positions in our Republican supermajority are working to end tax cuts on overtime but issuing tax cuts to athletes in their NIL deals.
Take a listen to this week's podcast to find out what is really going on in your government.

In February 2023, U.S. Sen. Tommy Tuberville discovered that the Department of Defense, under the Biden administration, was paying travel and PTO for female employees who desired to kill their unborn children but were prevented from doing so by state law.
There were not many options for the Senate minority to stop this, but Tuberville placed holds on the mass promotion of military officers, drawing the ire of radical leftists, mainstream media, the Biden regime, and worst of all, many fellow Republicans.
Sen. Tuberville essentially waged war on the culture of death for 10 months, going through hell as the media sought to destroy him while his colleagues left him to fight by himself.
Recently, President Trump and Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth vindicated Tuberville, saying the Biden administration’s policy violated the Hyde Amendment, exactly what Tuberville said for the 10 months he was pummeled in the media.
Tuberville joins Bryan Dawson this week to talk about his fight and numerous other happenings in D.C. since Trump was inaugurated as the 47th president of the United States, including Space Command returning to Alabama, restoring Title IX by banning men from women's sports, eliminating the unjust double-tax on social security benefits, and more.
Tuberville also joined Trump on Air Force One to attend the Super Bowl and shares some interesting thoughts on the game and the half time show as well.

The 2025 Legislative Session has begun and we here at 1819 News have it covered for you!
We have more reporters than anyone else covering every aspect of what is happening in Montgomery with a dedicated House reporter and Senate reporter, as well as an Editor who is filling in the gaps and doing a radio show from the statehouse.
As citizens of Alabama, each of us has a responsibility to keep an eye on our state government and to make our voices heard. The flip side of that is the fact that many in state government prefer the citizens turn a blind eye to what they’re up to at the Capitol. They want you to believe the press releases and stump speeches talking about how great everything is in the state. Indeed, they prefer you to be the dog in the burning house meme where the dog is at the table and the house is engulfed in flames and he says, "This is fine."
At 1819 News, we shine the light, pursue the truth of what is going on in Alabama’s government, and keep you informed with easily digestible content. Today is no different as CEO Bryan Dawson and 1819 News Editor-in-Chief Jeff Poor discuss Governor Ivey's invigorating state of the state speech and dive into a preview of what they expect in this legislative session.
Here's a quick preview: We have Democratic reps pushing for tax cuts and Republican municipal leaders looking to increase taxes, ALFA is looking to compete in the healthcare insurance front, and there are some immigration bills likely to come our way. Will the energy President Trump is creating in DC translate to major changes in Alabama? Don't hold your breath, tune in to find out why we don't think so.

What we have witnessed since the swearing in of President Donald Trump has been nothing short of incredible. Conservatives have never seen what it looks like for one of our people to ascend to power and then wield that power for the objective
good. This is new for us, and it’s riveting to watch.
This week, Dawson breaks down what he believes led to the steely resolve we are seeing in President Trump. From the fake Russian collusion accusations to China Flu and eventual lawfare and assassination attempts, today’s Trump is a different man than we saw in 2016.
Dawson also shares about his trip to D.C. for the inauguration, what that experience was like, and then breaks down some of the most impactful executive orders signed on day 1 and what they will mean for the country.
Finally, Dawson brings it home by asking where this type of leadership is in our Republican supermajority state.
After 31 years, The Rick & Bubba Show has ended. It was a great run, and in those three decades the show became a staple in the Alabama cultural and media landscape, as well as across the Southeast.
At the beginning of the year, host Rick Burgess launched his own show—The Rick Burgess Show—retaining much of the former program’s staff and affiliate stations.
Rumors abound about how and why The Rick & Bubba Show ended and why Bubba isn’t continuing.
Burgess joins Bryan Dawson this week to give the facts and his perspective on the rumors, but more importantly, to cast a vision for The Rick Burgess Show. He explains what’s going to stay the same, as well as what will be different.
Burgess and Dawson go on to talk about Man Church and what Trump’s choices for cabinet positions mean for the trajectory and energy of his second term.

In October 2024, Gov. Kay Ivey used her ""supreme executive power of this state"" to unilaterally fire then-Alabama Department of Veteran Affairs Commissioner Kent Davis.
Quite a saga led up to this unceremonious removal of the beloved ADVA commissioner, and many questions remain on whether Ivey has the authority to terminate a state agency head that serves at the pleasure of an appointed board of directors, in this case the State Board of Veterans Affairs.
A similar situation arose in the COVID pandemic years when the state health officer, who acts as the head of the Alabama Department of Public Health, Scott Harris, came under fire for his tyrannical measures in response to the virus. The governor's office claimed there was nothing Ivey could do, as an appointed board of directors chooses the state health officer, not the governor. Ivey claimed her hands were tied, so much so that legislation was passed to give the governor some authority over who the state health officer is in case another pandemic or health crisis arises.
The only conclusion that can be drawn from this is that Ivey had the authority to fire Scott Harris all along and chose not to, or she didn't have the authority to fire Kent Davis, but did it anyway.
This week Bryan Dawson sits down with former ADVA Commissioner Rear Admiral Kent Davis to hear the entire story from his perspective.
Overtime: War stories with Admiral Davis ... and they involve Hunter Biden!

Two Alabama Political Firestorms to Start the New Year
Retirement Systems of Alabama (RSA) head David Bronner recently published an article in the RSA's monthly publication The Advisor in which he bashed conservatives and conservative organizations, lamenting that we never offer any positive solutions and then pitching gambling as the panacea for all that ails the state. He named 1819 News specifically as one of those “smart” but troublesome organizations.
Bronner added to his attack with a letter to the editor of Lagniappe Daily in Mobile, criticizing 1819 News' Editor-in-Chief Jeff Poor.
Turning to the other firestorm, there was an obviously coordinated communications strategy in which numerous state agencies showered Governor Kay Ivey with praises almost in eulogistic fashion. In the wake of those adulations, rumors have abounded that she is going to step down. When 1819 News reached out to her office to see if. these rumors were true, we were told "No Comment."
All of that has set the conspiracy wheels ablaze as her stepping down would hand not only the throne to Lt. Gov Will Ainsworth but also incumbency going into what could be a hotly contested gubernatorial primary in 2026.
This week's podcast with 1819 News CEO Bryan Dawson and Editor-in-Chief Jeff Poor is as entertaining and engaging as it is informative and educational.
If you want to be in the know, this podcast is for you!
In the 2016 Presidential election there was much discussion of a populist uprising. They tried to throw negative connotations towards the term, like they do every other thing that threatens their power.
In this monologue episode of 1819 News: The Podcast, Bryan defines populism as the combined political force of the working class and goes into the history of how the working class ended up in the Republican Party. He also discusses the meteoric rise of populism on the national stage under Donald Trump and why his commitment to actually serve the forgotten American worker was the secret sauce to the 2024 landslide victory, as well as what that means for America, and Alabama.
Before jumping into the meat and potatoes portion of the podcast, Bryan gives an update on state politics, including why he thinks Garlan Gudger could make a real difference as the new Senate Pro Tem. Will there be another huge gambling push in the next legislative session that distracts the legislature from much more important bills that reflect the will of the people? Or will the gambling sycophants lick their wounds from last year's loss and move on to some other money grab?
All that and more on 1819 News: The Podcast
God is always weaving His way through apparently terrible circumstances. This week we get to hear a story that exemplifies this in an unpredictable way.
Kaleb Dillard is a young military veteran who grew up in Birmingham and attended Briarwood Christian School. A relatively normal, upright young man, Dillard found himself questioning the 2020 election results, a fact which landed him at the national Capitol on Jan. 6, 2021, a day that will unfortunately go down in history.
Dillard was caught up in the momentum of frustrated and distrustful Americans, and as a result, came under federal indictment for crimes committed at the Capitol that day.
Dillard is not innocent and never claimed to be, but his story will frustrate you as you hear how his home was raided by federal law enforcement in a massive, publicized show of force with armored vehicles and SWAT teams. Even his parents were cuffed and detained in the back of a cop car as their house was ripped apart. Ironically, Dillard was released a few hours later on a $5,000 bond as he posed no threat to society.
This week we take the journey with Dillard from Birmingham, to D.C., to federal prison, and back to Birmingham, detailing just one of the many ways the federal government retaliated against those who showed up to voice their distrust and displeasure on Jan. 6 th . Along the way, you’ll also be treated to thekind of love story that movies are made of, as we hear how God brought an incredible woman into Dillard’s life through the whole difficult journey.
Sit back, buckle up, and enjoy the ride! This story is something else!

If we learned anything through the COVID nightmare it is that the medical industrial complex has no limits and no conscience. The things done and the decisions made and enforced from on high had horrific consequences and few positive results, yet no consequences came from the complete failure that was the COVID response.
This week Bryan Dawson hosts Dr. Jordan Vaughn, recent recipient of The Albert Patterson Courage Award. Vaughn, CEO of MedHelp in Birmingham and a Co-Executive Director of Concerned Doctors, discusses President-elect Donald Trump's healthcare-related appointments, offering insight into what these appointees will need to do on day one to right the public health ship and bring transparency to these agencies.
The two also discuss the life-saving work Vaughn is involved in, including helping those dealing with microclotting from the spike proteins, long COVID, and other injuries stemming from the experimental therapeutic we were told was safe and effective.
Perfectly healthy individuals received this therapeutic and became invalids, but after treatment from Vaughn, they were basically "brought back from the dead." Vaughn’s work helping these folks has also opened doors into treating dementia and Alzheimer’s.
Although Vaughn has appeared on the podcast numerous times, this episode sees him really cut loose and bring the heat. You don't want to miss it!
For additional information, check out this clip of Vaughn discussing microclotting and his efforts to remedy those problems with Sharyl Attkisson: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KVGf-XZ3Y_s&t=2221s
The worst thing for conservatives to do now that Trump has won is to go back to their normal lives and assume everything is going to be hunky dory because our guy won. No, winning the election was the first battle in the war to reclaim our nation and to save Western Civilization.
We are in an existential crisis, meaning that if we don't do what is necessary in these next two years, the America you know and love will not exist in any real or meaningful way.
This week, Bryan does his first monologue tackling this issue and challenges us to ask ourselves, “Do I have the stomach to take the nation back?”
And on the topic of stomachs, Bryan shifts gears a bit discussing a life changing realization he had while watching an episode of Tucker Carlson featuring Casey and Callie Means.
His epiphany was that the same people behind making cigarettes as addictive as possible are now behind making ultra-processed foods as addictive as possible, creating an epidemic of obesity that pharmaceutical companies are making billions to treat.
Due to the realization, Bryan shares how his thoughts on food have dramatically changed and how that has positively affected his life. The deeper understanding is that every single area of our life requires intentionality while swimming against the current if we hope to be healthy and flourishing citizens.

From the locker room speech in Coach Bryant's last game to "The Fumble" in the 1987 AFC Championship games, Jeremiah Castille had an incredible career filled with some memorable moments. He comes on the podcast this week to share his incredible life story of growing up in Phenix City to coming to know Jesus, playing for Bear Bryant, and even playing in a Super Bowl.
This week's overtime segment is probably the best overtime segment we've done to date, As the University of Alabama's football chaplain, Jeremiah has some incredible stories to tell. We dive into the story of what it was like to be the chaplain during the Tua/Jalen Hurts era, watching those two incredible young men compete to be the quarterback of the top team in the nation, beginning with Tua coming in the second half of the National Championship.

The question is often asked on this podcast, ""We have a church on every corner in Alabama, but those churches have done little to nothing to slow the spread of radical progressive ideas into our institutions and culture. Why is that?""
Today, we are bringing you one of the greatest contemporary Christian authors and cultural commentators of our day, Eric Metaxas, to answer this question.
Metaxas was in Birmingham as the keynote speaker at 1819 News’ inaugural Albert Patterson Gala to specifically call attention to the need for Christians to truly engage in the culture war, including politics. It was his answer to the question that made him the perfect speaker for our first major event.
On this podcast, the author of Bonhoeffer and Letter to the American Church sits down with CEO Bryan Dawson to share how he believes it’s absolutely critical to get churches playing leading roles in the culture war and how he thinks it can be done. As Metaxas shared, if we’re going to win this culture war and its political implications, churches must engage.
If you’ve been watching what’s been happening and wondering why Alabama churches are often so quiet on these issues, you’ll want to listen to this podcast and share it widely – especially to your church’s leadership.

In business, quality results are the only thing that matter. Were the customers satisfied?
Did you do what you said you were going to do?
On this week’s 1819 News: The Podcast, CEO Bryan Dawson sits down with Alabama
businessman Gerrick Wilkins to discuss the absolutely insane, 2024 election cycle
through the lens of a businessman who has also jumped into the political arena.
Gerrick Wilkins ran for Congress in Alabama's 6th Congressional District because he
felt Congressman Gary Palmer should have honored his term-limit pledge. He shares a
little of his story and then he and Bryan jump into the 2024 election cycle from the
primary to the assassination attempt and then the coronation of Kamala Harris, all the
way through to Trump sweeping every swing state and winning the popular vote.
Wilkins believes a successful businessman attaining the highest office in the land is a
huge threat to those who profit off the status quo of bureaucratic waste, inefficiencies,
and subsidies.
Clearly, Donald Trump has been that threat to the existing bureaucracy. The tactics
they've employed to eliminate him are beyond anything Americans have ever seen. Yet,
Trump’s also a man who cut his teeth in business developing real estate in New York
City – known for being one of the most ruthless business environments in the world. He
clearly knew how to fight his way through all the attacks.
What will this mean for our country? What will it mean for the Republican Party? What
will Trump do to capitalize on this opportunity?
Those questions and more are answered in this episode of 1819 News: The Podcast!

This week Bryan sits down with Emily Jones of Moms for Liberty to discuss the American School Counselor Association’s (ASCA) agenda and the fact that ASCA is in every school in the state of Alabama.
As the Moms for Liberty website states, “school counselors are the most radical department in K-12 today.” ASCA works tirelessly to enact a Leftist agenda of CRT, gender equity, Social Emotional Learning (SEL), and more in schools across the country and our state by setting guidelines and training school counselors.
It seems there are no limits to the length progressives are willing to go to influence and corrupt the minds and hearts of children – all behind the backs of trusting American parents. If you have a child or grandchild in a public school, you need to listen to this one.

1819 News: The Podcast has a unique episode for you this week!
A few things have been getting under CEO Bryan Dawson’s skin lately. Naturally, he sat down with Joey Clark on his radio show News and Views, which airs on Montgomery's News/Talk 93.1, to air some of those concerns.
We thought the “radio rant” was too good not to share! Bryan and Joey's conversation begins with the discussion of Alabama State Health Officer Scott Harris' new appointment as the president of the Association of State and Territorial Health Officials. The public health organization has ties to George Soros and focuses on important topics like “health equity” and “dismantling white supremacy.” This brings out Harris' true colors – we all knew they were there – to the surface and reminds us that he should have been fired years ago.
If you recall, Alabama was told Harris couldn't be fired because he was appointed by a board of health professionals and therefore did not serve at the pleasure of the governor. This situation was such a problem that bills were filed in the last three legislative sessions to give the governor the authority to fire the state health officer. Last session one of those bills finally passed.
That stands in stark contrast to a recent move made by Governor Ivey to use her “supreme executive power of this state” to unilaterally fire a different state agency head who was also appointed by a board, Rear Admiral Kent Davis, the director of the Alabama Department of Veterans Affairs.
Either Ivey had the authority to fire Scott Harris and refused, or she doesn't have the authority to fire state agency heads like Rear Admiral Kent Davis who are appointed by a board, but she did it anyway.
Bryan and Joey's discussion turns from Ivey’s actions to the lack of leadership in the Alabama House, Senate, and Governor’s Office, which creates an environment where special interests reign supreme.
The conversation brought into clear focus the reality that since the Alabama Speaker of the House has been under the heavy influence of political consultant Steve Raby, the House priorities have been an increased gas tax, medical marijuana, and several major pushes for full blown gambling. The last push for gambling included Medicaid expansion.
It’s unbelievable that these are the priorities of the Republican supermajority of a state House in the most conservative state in the nation!
Finally, the “radio rant” ends with harsh criticism of local elected leaders such as mayors, county commissioners, and city councilmen who desperately seek reasons for why they can't do what is right and necessary, and that will allow them to pass the buck. Whether its Haitian immigrants being dumped into their cities or pornographic grooming literature in the children's section of their library, local leaders’ mantra is too often the same: "Ain't nuthin' I can do!" Obviously, you’ll want to give this episode a listen!
Special thanks to Bluewater Broadcasting, News/Talk 93.1, and Joey Clark for allowing us to use the interview.
Special Note: Video was pulled from Joey Clark's YouTube page. Additionally, make sure to tune into News/Talk 93.1 when you are in Montgomery or listen online at newstalk931.com/listen-live/!
You've probably heard the political ads for people running for PSC in which they tout their conservative bona fides and then attack their opponents as tree-hugging hippies.
Those ads don't really help us understand what goes on at the PSC, but they certainly get stuck in your head...""Always totin' Jeremy Oden"" comes to mind.
Unfortunately, Alabamians often know very little about positions in our state government that impact them the most directly. The Public Service Commission (PSC) is certainly at the top of the list of those extremely important elected positions Alabamians need to know and understand.
This week Bryan is joined by PSC President Twinkle Cavanaugh to hear her story and how she got into politics. Twinkle also gives us a rundown of what exactly it is that the Public Service Commission does.
Naturally, the first question is always whether Twinkle is her real name. You'll be surprised by the answer and enjoy hearing how she got it. You’ll also hear about all the other ways she has served in state politics and the roots of her passion.
More to the point of this podcast, Bryan asks the tough questions surrounding the PSC's responsibility in regulating Alabama Power rates and what their role is in the coal ash cleanup.
- Are our rates in Alabama really among the highest in the nation?
- Why are our power bills so much higher than other states?
- When was the last rate audit on Alabama Power?
This informative podcast will give you a window into the role and powers of a very important office in our state government that affects your wallet daily.
With the recent influx of Haitians to Alabama and other states, there have been a number of Christian talking heads shaming other Christians into accepting open-ended immigration.
Using selective Bible verses, these influencers claim immigration is a good, Christian principle despite the fact current foreigners brought into the country are quite often hostile towards Christian society and the American way of life.
In response, 1819 News CEO Bryan Dawson is joined on this podcast with Pastor Rich Lusk of Trinity Presbyterian Church in Birmingham, Alabama, to discuss whether a Christian is morally obligated to support open-ended immigration. His answer will surprise you!
Beyond refugee resettlement, this episode of 1819 News: The Podcast digs into several key questions related to nations and immigration: What is a nation? What does a nation need to survive? What roles do culture, religion, common language, and things of that nature play in maintaining a nation? And what should be expected of immigrants to a nation?
The conversation doesn’t stop there, as Dawson and Lusk consider whether allowing third-world aliens into our nation en masse is really Christian charity, or if it is civilizational suicide. After all, doesn’t history show immigration without assimilation is invasion? So, what happens to a Christian society when it becomes the minority?
If you want answers to those questions, you’ll want to give this podcast a listen!
OVERTIME: We've all heard the phrase, "Diversity is our strength." But is that really true? Pastor Rich Lusk combats this narrative and rebukes the myth of multiculturalism. He also explains where this thinking came from and what we must do to combat it.

One of the most incredible ministries in the world is located right here in Alabama.
The Big Oak Ranch has been providing a home to children who need a chance for 50 years now.
The circumstances that lead each child to Big Oak Ranch are unique. But one aspect of their stories is the same: they have known abuse, neglect, and abandonment by the very people who should have loved them above all. Prior to coming to Big Oak Ranch, the children there have suffered in ways that are impossible to imagine. At the ranch, they find hope. They find a loving, Christian home -- often for the first time. They find a chance to live out God's plan for their lives.
This week, Big Oak Ranch CEO, Brodie Croyle, joins Bryan to tell the 50 year story of the ranch.
You'll hear incredible stories of children rescued and the gospel preached.
The obvious questions that arise upon hearing the story are; How can you multiply the success of the ranch, and what happens to the children after they graduate.
Brodie has a great answer and talks about the work they are doing with Planting Oaks to multiply what God has done at the ranch to over 30 states. Each time the ranch added a home, they added beds. Adding is good, but multiplying is better and the goal for Planting Oaks is to multiply the ministry and so far they have helped launch 109 new ranches serving over 6,500 children.
They also talk about Kelly Croyle's passion, Ascend, which is a ministry dedicated to spiritual, professional, and personal life preparation for the young adults of Big Oak Ranch. This is the answer to what happens when the children graduate, and after hearing about the ministry you'll wonder if you can send your young adults there.
This is a powerful episode sharing one of the most incredible stories in Alabama.

Everyone loves a good story, and there has never been a more riveting one playing out right before our very eyes than the story of Donald Trump's attempt to save America.
From him coming down the escalator in June of 2016 to being shot in the head on July 13th, 2024, at the rally in Butler, PA, it has been an incredible ride. Throughout Trump’s time in politics, Americans have watched the D.C. Regime – both Republicans and Democrats – attempt to destroy him at every turn through media, bureaucracy, lawfare, and more.
Dinesh D'Souza is no stranger to political turmoil himself as he, too, has been at war with the Regime as a political commentator and policy guru turned filmmaker and storyteller.
On this podcast, Dinesh shares with Bryan the making of his latest docudrama capturing the story of Trump's fight against the Regime for the last eight years.
Here's how the film’s producers describe it: “This film is a journey to discover the real Donald Trump, and to make the case
for him as a man and as a leader. It begins with a puzzle. How can a man be so intensely loved and hated? Not since Lincoln have we had such a divisive figure on the national scene. The film also considers a danger that Lincoln warned about—the rise in America of a tyrant like Caesar who would promote lawlessness and subvert the foundations of our constitutional republic. Is Trump such a man?”
The movie even includes a one-on-one interview with Trump shortly after he was shot in Pennsylvania.
Bryan and Dinesh dig into all the high-stakes drama we’ve seen over the last eight years, the making of the movie, and more. If you’re following politics closely this election season, you’ll want to listen to this podcast!

The influx of Haitian migrants in Alabama has been the lead story on 1819 News for over a month now. Haitian immigrants started popping up in Albertville and Athens, then in Enterprise and Sylacauga. Springfield, Missouri is getting all the national headlines but it's happening right here in Alabama. Many of the city and county leaders, as well as the media outlets, have resorted to calling the citizens racist rather than trying to deal with the situation head on, and have shut down their opportunity to speak at city council meetings.
This week, Alabama Attorney General Steve Marshall sits down with Bryan for their quarterly update and they tackle the immigration conversation. How are these people getting here? What can be done? Are they actually legal?
The crime in Montgomery reached a fever pitch over the summer, but things seem to be getting better and AG Marshall talks about what his team has done to reduce the murder and violent crime rate in the capital city.
They also discuss the anti-constitutional rhetoric that pours out of Kamala every time she makes unscripted comments like her recent one where she stated citizens have a right to bear arms but the government has a right to come into your house and make sure the weapons are being used responsibly. Yikes.
University of Alabama Birmingham was recently in the news. They are not only bragging about being one of the most LGBTQ friendly universities in the nation and promoting the fact that they use DEI to pick doctors and med students instead of making those decisions based on merit. They were recently exposed for taking a six figure tax payer funded grant to study vaginal health in transgender men.
I'm sure the UAB donors and alumni are really excited about the direction of the University.
- OVERTIME: LOCAL Alabama, Mom's for Liberty, and ADF have been putting on several Town Halls all over the state featuring AG Marshal and Rep Susan DuBose. The purpose of these Town Halls is to inform the public of how bad the Title IX changes really are and that has caused floods of protestors to show up to the meetings. Marshall fills us in on how those have gone and some of the feedback they've received is that the meetings are actually life changing.

Round 2 with the Center for Security Policy’s Tommy Waller and Kyle Shideler!
With the border crisis raging and threats of WWIII looming, national security is once again becoming a front and center issue. Americans have realized we are not secure abroad or at home, and they want strong, wise leadership to take action.
This week Bryan sits down with two gentlemen who devote much of their lives to keeping America safe and strong. Tommy Waller is the CEO of the Center for Security Policy (CSP) and he's joined by Kyle Shideler, the director and senior analyst for homeland security and counterterrorism at CSP.
The mission of CSP is to provide uncompromising analysis, unflinching leadership, and unconventional solutions to keep America secure.
In Episode 2, we learn from Waller and Shideler about two key threats to the United States’ security. As we all know, China is both a major trading partner and a rising adversary for global power. The threats are numerous, from outright war over Taiwan or trade routes to CCP members infiltrating our government and institutions, procuring technology, and bribing bureaucrats and elected officials.
From the threat of China, the conversation turns to the American power grid. Again, the threats are multiple. As the Left pushes for the transition to solar- and wind-generated power while diminishing reliable power generation, the grid is already weakened. But then we must consider the possibilities of cyberattacks against it or an electro-magnetic pulse (EMP) attack that could hobble or even take down the grid for months – or a lot longer.
If you enjoyed Episode 1 with Tommy Waller and Kyle Shideler, you’ll enjoy this podcast immensely!
OVERTIME SEGMENT: Bryan Dawson and CSP’s Tommy Waller and Kyle Shideler discuss the border crisis and what it means for national security. Learn more about CSP’s proposed solutions and what they’re doing to make them happen.

With the border crisis raging and threats of WWIII looming, national security is once again becoming a front and center issue. Everyday Americans have realized we are not secure abroad or at home and they want strong, wise leadership to take action.
This week Bryan sits down with two gentlemen who devote much of their lives to keeping America safe and strong. Tommy Waller is the CEO of the Center for Security Policy (CSP) and he's joined by Kyle Shideler, the Director and Senior Analyst for Homeland Security and Counterterrorism at CSP.
The mission of CSP is to provide uncompromising analysis, unflinching leadership, and unconventional solutions to keep America secure. We are going to hear the story of CSP and some incredible examples of the work they are doing in this two-episode series.
In Episode 1, Tommy and Kyle share their stories of how they got involved in the work of national security policy and how their unique journeys prepared them to help keep America safe.
Waller and Shideler go on to share about domestic threats we face and how Antifa ranks high on the list. The conversation weaves through the deep and interesting history of the radical, Marxist movement and how CSP is working with state legislators to draft legislation keeping Antifa's efforts to dox law enforcement at bay.
The discussion is as entertaining and engaging as it is educational and informative. You’ll be glued to your screen and on the edge of your seat!

You’ve probably noticed the rapid decline of legacy journalism in recent years. It’s almost on life support.
Over the last few decades mainstream journalism devolved into radical, leftist political activism. The fastest way to become a Marxist in America is by going to a “J School” at a major university. Unfortunately, what you traditionally saw within conservative journalism was rewriting press releases and responding to liberal mainstream talking points – not new and unique reporting.
Honest, fresh journalism is a necessity to a free society, so what does that mean for the future of news and media?
This week CEO Bryan Dawson sits down with Ben Zeisloft, editor-in-chief of The Republic Sentinel (a relatively new national news publication making waves), to discuss challenges for the future of journalism in America as well as recent changes that should give us hope.
Zeisloft left The Daily Wire to become the editor of The Republic Sentinel and has great insight into what is taking place in mainstream media, conservative journalism, and even Christian media that is worth hearing.
As an example of the need for expanded, independent media, Dawson and Zeisloft discuss the story The Republic Sentinel broke about Captain Bradley Geary, a Navy SEAL BUD/S instructor who was blamed for the death of a trainee in Hell Week. Geary is facing discipline and possible separation from the Navy.
As the attorney representing Geary contended, “the mishandling of the Mullen investigations points toward a culture of minimal accountability among top military brass, who in his experience have often preferred to shift responsibility for leadership failures to those under their command.”
Christian legal advocacy nonprofit Stand With Warriors and others are financially assisting Geary’s legal defense.
Like the story of Geary above, there are many more that should be told – both in Alabama and across America. The need for independent, honest journalism cannot be emphasized enough. Learn more by listening to the podcast!
Overtime: On this Overtime segment, Dawson and Zeisloft discuss Meg Basham’s Shepherds for Sale and its implications. The Left has long tried to cloak socialism with Christian virtues and labels. Have they also succeeded in infiltrating much of the Evangelical church in America? Have a listen!

Tim Harry was born in a rural Alabama town and the thought of running a multimillion-dollar, executive security firm never crossed his mind as a child, but that is exactly where he's landed as the Founder and CEO of Severance Security.
Going to foreign countries to rescue children from slavery was also not something he saw in his future, but as an active board member of Children's Rescue Initiative he has found his mission field.
Severance Security protects everything from high profile individuals to beachfront condos – and they do it with excellence. Through his work, Harry saw the startling statistics of suicide rates in veterans. He also saw that within a mile of every major mass shooting there was a veteran who could have done something about it. Armed with this knowledge, Harry set out to give veterans a sense of purpose by using their skills and training to protect people, places, and things that need protecting.
Hearing the story of Tim Harry coming from obscurity to founding an executive security firm and saving children from sex slavery is an inspirational one you’ll want to hear!
Overtime: Bryan sits down with Tim, who trained snipers for some of the largest contract security firms in the world, to hear his thoughts on the Trump assassination attempt. What he has to say will shock you!

If you had any doubt that evil forces intervened in the 2020 election in favor of Joe Biden, the Twitter Files should have rid you of those doubts. The fact that big tech worked overtime to protect Biden from negative coverage and increase false accusations and narratives about Trump was plain for all to see in the evidence Elon Musk provided independent journalists following his purchase of the massive social media platform.
Not to mention the overwhelming evidence of federal agencies working hand and glove with big tech to make sure Biden won. Oh, and don't forget the hundreds of millions of dollars in ""Zuck Bucks"" that Facebook founder Mark Zuckerberg poured into putting ballot boxes in inner cities in swing states that were used in a massive ballot harvesting ballot stuffing operation.
TIME magazine also ran a story where they basically admitted to, and described, their collaborative efforts to keep Trump out of the White House and their reasons justifying the efforts.
So that begs the questions: ""What is the plan to make sure 2024 is as free from election chicanery as possible?""
This week we sat down with former Trump attorney and author of the book Stealing Your Vote, Christina Bobb, to discuss what needs to be done to make sure election interference is kept to a minimum in the 2024 election.
Bobb is the RNC's Election Integrity Counsel and was facing life in prison for speaking out about the inconsistencies in the 2020 election. In fact, she is still facing those charges and continues to fight for election integrity every single day despite the intimidation tactics.
Take a listen, you will be inspired by her courage and brought up to speed on all things election integrity for 2024.

“Freedom is never more than one generation away from extinction. We didn't pass it to our children in the bloodstream. It must be fought for, protected, and handed on for them to do the same, or one day we will spend our sunset years telling our children and our children's children what it was once like in the United States where men were free.”
This famous quote is from President Ronald Reagan and is the focal point of a new book authored by Brilyn Hollyhand whose mission is to awaken the next generation to conservative values and what it will take for them to secure freedom in America for their children and grandchildren.
Brilyn sits down with Bryan Dawson to discuss this new book as well as other current events in the national political realm.
As the Chairman of the RNC's Youth Advisory Council, Brilyn gives first hand feedback on the response from Gen Z to the JD Vance nomination for VP, the assassination attempt, and more.

Alabama's Lieutenant Governor, Will Ainsworth, recently returned from his trip to the Farnborough International Airshow in London and he has some exciting reports of what folks there were saying about Alabama and our potential to be THE destination state for aerospace companies looking to move or expand.
Dawson and Ainsworth also talk about the importance of the trades and preparing Alabama students for opportunities in the trades. Not everyone is meant to go to college and work in finance, there are incredible opportunities to make a wonderful living and find meaning in work that doesn't require a degree but does require training. Ainsworth updates us on his plan to get students trained in the trades before they leave high school so they can move right into a career.
And finally, Dawson and Ainsworth dive into the desecration of the Lord's Supper during the 2024 Olympic opening ceremony broadcast to 28.6 million viewers. Was this a giant misinterpretation of Greek Mythology sprinkled with pedophilia, or was this a clear attack on the Christian faith that should cause believers everywhere to stand up before there is nothing left to fight for? Tune in to hear what they say.

The last four to five weeks could be the most monumental in American politics.
During the first 2024 presidential debate, the whole world was confronted with the undeniable reality of a sitting president with very serious health problems. Two weeks later, there was an attempted assassination of President Donald Trump. The next day Republicans from all over the nation gathered in Milwaukee, Wisconsin for the 2024 Republican National Convention. There, Republicans made Donald Trump the official nominee and he then named J.D. Vance as his running mate.
The energy of the 2024 RNC was beyond electric with incredible speakers from Hulk Hogan to Tucker Carlson, performances from Kid Rock, and President Donald Trump introduced by UFC founder Dana White. It was quite the change from RNC conventions of yore.
In this week's episode, 1819 News’ Bryan Dawson sits down with ALGOP Chairman John Wahl to discuss the convention, what it means that Trump chose JD Vance, and what they each believe happened on that fateful day in Butler, PA.

With the level of incompetence we see in governing bodies across our state and nation, it becomes challenging to tell if the insidious things taking place are coming from a place of malicious intent or the result of the government being run by complete idiots.
Both are scary prospects, but the ladies from Moms for Liberty really believe it is the former. They join us on the podcast this week to discuss what they are doing to fight back.
COVID was a tragic time for our country but in numerous ways it opened the eyes of countless Americans to how bad things had gotten, particularly in public schools. Conservatives, by and large, just want to work, raise their families, and be left alone. But as the saying goes, "You may not be interested in war, but war is interested in you".
Emily Jones and Rebecca Watson sensed this war, each in their own way, and responded by starting local Alabama chapters of Moms for Liberty to educate, unify, and empower parents to protect their parental rights at all levels of government. We hear the story of how this all came about and dive into Title IX, unlicensed therapy sessions, and more.
OVERTIME SEGMENT: The Children Can't Read, Let's Lower the Standard Everyone knows the odds of children succeeding in life greatly suffers if they can't read by 3rd grade.
Well, Alabama has found a solution... Apparently, they are lowering the standards so it looks like more kids are reading by the end of 3rd grade when really they’re not.

Christian Nationalism is one of the most hotly debated subjects in America right now with liberals using the term to demonize any form of government that reflects Christian values and mores.
This week, 1819 News: The Podcast is publishing the Overtime segment our CEO Bryan Dawson recorded with Pastor Douglas Wilson that digs right into the topic. It’s just too good not to share.
Not long ago, Western civilization and America believed that the Church provided moral guidance while the State had the duty of establishing law and order which reflected those moral precepts.
Some will say that to do so creates a theocracy because religious values would inform the state’s actions. What seems to be forgotten in our times is that there is no such thing as a “values-neutral” government. All laws and actions are informed by values, by a moral order. While the Left’s moral order is not rooted in a religious tradition like Christianity or Islam, it is still a moral order that they are working hard to enshrine into law, forcing it upon the people through the power of government.
As uncomfortable as it may be for some Americans, we must realize that a moral order will be reflected in our federal, state, and local governments. The question is, “Which one?”
If you’ve wanted to learn more about Christian Nationalism and the reality of values- based government, this podcast is the one for you.

From ads to political rhetoric and real violence, you’ve probably noticed racism is in vogue these days so long as it's hatred and intolerance towards white people, specifically white males.
This week, 1819 News CEO Bryan Dawson sits down with Jeremy Carl, a senior fellow at the Claremont Institute and author of the hit book The Unprotected Class: How Anti-White Racism is Tearing America Apart to discuss the one subject we all see but aren’t supposed to talk about.
Dawson and Carl discuss the manufactured baby boom of “Native Americans” on the census due to Whites selecting Native American instead of White to gain better treatment; the deleterious effects of anti-white hiring policies on healthcare, our national security, and our military readiness; and even what really happened with white-flight.
Is the racism and hatred aimed at a lack of melanin or is it because “whiteness” is perceived to represent Christianity and Western Civilization? If you’re curious, you’ll want to listen.
The answers to these questions will surprise you and leave you wondering what can be done. Thankfully, Carl gives some great thoughts on solutions moving forward.
Overtime Segment: You might call this the Beautiful Losers segment as we dig into conservatives love affair with losing. Bryan and Carl discuss the failures of American conservatism as a movement, and why it is we get destroyed in the culture war.

As technology continues to rapidly advance in its power and abilities, the need to think critically about moral ramifications of these advancements is key.
IVF is one of those advancements that needs more discussion, particularly for those individuals and families who desire to have children but also want to honor God and do what is right by Him.
This week Bryan sits down with Jeff Durbin, a prominent pastor in the world of fighting back against abortion, to hear his incredible story. After overcoming addiction, he became a nationally known pastor fighting against the culture of death.
Pastor Jeff's story of devolution from a famed martial artist featured in films such as Mortal Combat and Ninja Turtles to a life of addiction is riveting. Even more incredible is how God saved him and called him to minister to recovering addicts.
With God’s blessing, he eventually turned a recovery center in the Phoenix area into a booming church. Bryan and Jeff dive into the hotly debated subject of IVF. Many individuals see IVF as a good thing because it helps families have children, but that fails to acknowledge the actual process and the moral ramifications for those who believe life starts at conception.
From the IVF conversation the two move to a discussion about what it will actually take to permanently end abortion in Alabama, Arizona, and America. Overtime Segment: One of the big questions many people have in the church is whether God's Law still applies today, and if so, how. Pastor Jeff unpacks this subject better than anyone and you will be edified by the conversation.

If you’re following 1819 News, you’ve heard the horror stories of pornographic books placed in the children's section of public libraries across Alabama. You’ve probably asked yourself if this is really happening, too. It is.
Deviant ideologues are pushing books containing explicit writing and images that encourage children to question their gender and perform homosexual acts with one another. These people are purposefully corrupting the innocence of children.
This week, we hit this disgusting travesty head-on as we sit down with the founder of Clean Up Alabama, Hannah Rees, to hear the story of how one angry momma bear made a huge difference for her community and, ultimately, the entire state.
Over time Rees’ leadership attracted an incredible group of warriors and partnerships with activist organizations across the state. But it can’t be forgotten that the fight started with her deciding she wasn't going to allow this literature to remain on the shelves of the Prattville Public Library – no matter what it took.
This podcast is one of the most encouraging stories of victory for conservatives in Alabama. Hannah talks about the wins, how they were accomplished, and the work that still needs to be done.
Overtime Segment: Bryan and Hannah discuss why just Momma Bears are getting it done and ask, “Where are the men?!?” Plus, Hannah shares the importance of “following through”, as she likes to say.

When people think of missions, the images that usually come to mind are romanticized versions of what really takes place. Ministry is messy and missions even more so.
Giving yourself wholly to the service of others always comes with perils. But now imagine a ministry that sees your family sacrificing for and growing close to people who end up shot or dead because of gang violence. That isn't on the flyers at the North American Missions Board, but it is a reality for those called to bring the message of Jesus Christ to inner cities.
This week, missionary Bryan Kelly shares what it’s like on the front lines of urban evangelism as the founder and executive director of Common Ground, a non-profit that spearheads inner-city ministry in Montgomery. He shares the incredible work he and his family are involved in as well as some of the stories you don't usually think about when it comes to ministry.
The good news is Common Ground hopes to expand its efforts. Kelly fills us in on those plans and the opportunity he sees. As the Good Book shares, “The harvest is plentiful…”
Listening to this podcast, you will be encouraged by the fruit of the harvest Kelly has seen over the years while also sobered by the stories of a world most Alabamians hope to avoid.

The Great Commission given by Jesus in the New Testament states: "All authority in Heaven and Earth has been given to me, go therefore and make disciples of all nations and baptize them in the name of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all that I have commanded.”
Have you ever thought about what things would look like if we were successful in the Great Commission? What if this nation realized that all authority in Heaven and Earth belonged to Christ the King and we observed all that he commanded us? What would Alabama look like?
Not long ago, Western civilization and America believed that the Church provided moral guidance while the State had the duty of establishing law and order which reflected those moral precepts.

This week Bryan sits down with America's most controversial pastor to discuss what it would take to re-create a Christian civilization, if the Bible calls for it, and how Christian education plays into it.
Overtime: If you saw Pastor Wilson on Tucker Carlson recently, the episode was titled "The Christian Nationalist they warned you about!" There is perhaps no one who has leaned more into the label Christian Nationalist than Pastor Douglas Wilson. In this Overtime we ask him to define his terms and tell us why he believes Christian Nationalism is the path forward.

Have you ever wished you could sue Joe Biden? Well, Alabama Attorney General Steve Marshall has done it more than a few times.

Overtime: Much speculation was made about Steve Marshall's trip to NYC for the Trump trial where he was seen with Coach Tuberville. Steve tells the story and dispels any rumors.

Another year, another session and gambling is still illegal in Alabama, but just barely.
This week Bryan sits down with 1819 News’ Editor in Chief Jeff Poor to dive into Alabama’s 2024 legislative session. Looming large in the conversation is the massive push for gambling and why it failed.
Unfortunately, plenty of good legislation didn't pass due to the relentless efforts of a few legislators hellbent on foisting their terrible gambling bill upon the people of Alabama.
But not all was lost, there were some great things that came out of the session, such as school choice and the appointment of the state health officer, which Jeff and Bryan dig into.
In a republic, it’s critical that every citizen stays informed. This is a must-watch episode that will give you the knowledge and perspective you need!
In this week's Overtime segment – Only available to 1819 News Members! – Bryan and Jeff discuss the importance of Attorney General Steve Marshall and Senator Tommy Tuberville attending the Trump trial in New York.

Lies are the native language of feminists, whether they call abortion healthcare or tell women they can't be fulfilled unless they’re stuffed in office cubicles, climbing the corporate ladder.
On this episode, Bryan is joined by The Ladies of Liberty (Dixie & Trixie, aka Amie Beth Shaver and Allison Sinclair of Alabama Unfiltered Radio) to dive into the lies and long-term effects of feminism.
Starting with the outrageous commercial California’s Governor Gavin Newsom made about Alabama's abortion laws, we unpack the rotten fruit of feminism. Much of the destruction of Western Civilization and the nation in which we live can be placed at the foot of their denial of nature and nature’s God.
Overtime Segment: The Ladies of Liberty share how Title IX is much bigger than simply sports and how the Biden administration’s changes will have enormous ramifications.

Much of the cultural decadence in our land can be placed at the foot of those in authority who have failed to act. That could be pastors or elected officials. Pastor John Amanchukwu of Turning Point Faith has some strong language for those in authority that are failing to protect children, specifically in public school libraries. Anyone in authority who fails to keep that filth out of the hands of children is either a punk or a pervert, there is no other way to see it. They are either cowards or pedophiles.
Pastor John shares his story of growing up in North Carolina and meeting his wife, whose father discipled him and introduced him to conservative politics and the idea of biblical faith being manifested in the political realm.
Buckle up, this one is a doozy!
Overtime Segment: Bryan and Pastor John discuss social engineering and the epidemic of fatherlessness in the black community, and how that epidemic is spreading to all communities in America and who is behind the spread. Hint: It's the Marxists (Those with the woke mind virus)

The COVID lockdowns pulled back the curtain on every level of our society. We
quickly found out who has the courage to stand on principle and who caved to the tyrannical forces of power. In a deeper way, we came to see what our leaders, friends, and family really valued. The results were deeply troubling.
For many of us, our faith is our core strength and motivator. It shapes our every action and inaction. As faith is our guide, we need our pastors, our shepherds, to be courageous in the face of the prowling wolves.
Unfortunately, we saw a lot of pastors and priests waver in the face of authoritarian policies. In the wake of the lockdowns, there’s been a quiet reshuffling as Christians seek out shepherds they can trust to stand strong. As such, the question of whether someone should find another church has become increasingly prevalent.
Pastor Rich Lusk discusses this issue with Bryan Dawson, helping listeners evaluate and discern whether they should stay or find a new church home. It’s not an easy or light decision and, thankfully, Pastor Lusk gives some great tips and questions we should all consider.
In this week's overtime segment Bryan and Rich Lusk discuss Christians in the political arena. Specifically, Pastor Lusk asks the question, “Where are our Dusty Deavers?”

In the last few years, you’ve probably seen at least one viral tweet questioning
Taylor Swift as a role model for young girls or calling out effeminate church leaders. Odds are that tweet probably came from social-media flamethrower Eric Conn.
This week Bryan and Eric, who hosts Hard Men Podcast and co-hosts The Kings Hall Podcast, discuss how despite churches located on every corner, they seem impotent at preventing the cultural onslaught and chaos wreaking havoc across our land.
Dedicating his life to the task of cultural renewal, Eric shares what caused him to finally leave the world of firearms journalism to start New Christendom Press and enter the biblical-masculinity influencer space. Hint: It had to do with effeminate pastors...
More than a conversation about the problems, Bryan and Eric dig into the importance of recovering historic Christianity and our Christian heritage.

Another congressional royal rumble is taking place due to the absurd redistricting last year. This time it's in the 2nd Congressional District of Alabama. Caroleene Dobson is the definition of a dark horse candidate, she has gone from unknown to prominence by traveling the state, speaking, and doing media hits. What everyone is noticing is that she is incredibly intelligent, has a deep grasp of every political problem facing our country, and, most importantly, has solutions.
Most politicians and candidates speak in sound bites they hope pander to polling data, but that's not Caroleene. She engages in a 45 min conversation with Bryan and pulls no punches.

Despite having a Republican governor and Republican supermajority in theAlabama House and Senate for over a decade, there had been no movement on school choice and education freedom. In fact, Gov Ivey had been diametrically opposed to it, as has state House and Senate leadership, despite parental rights and education freedom being part of the ALGOP Party Platform. That all changed this year. Bryan brings on School Choice evangelist, Corey DeAngelis, to talk about the history of the school choice movement and why there has been such a shift across the nation with 13 states adopting Education Savings Accounts since COVID. They analyze the CHOOSE Act that the state House passed and compare it to other states. (Update: The Alabama Senate also passed the CHOOSE Act and Governor Ivey signed it into law shortly after this recording.) Corey also discusses the "bloodbath" on Super Tuesday in Texas for anti-school choice, NEA-sponsored, Republican-incumbent legislators his organization targeted.

Should children in the womb be granted the same protections as those
living outside the womb? That is the question we ask Attorney Bradley Pierce who has
authored the vast majority of the 'Equal Protection' bills filed across the country.
Bradley lays out the legal argument for why he believes the unborn should be protected
from homicide the same way any person outside the womb would be.
Pierce outlines some of the common myths and frequently asked questions pertaining
to legislation that would provide equal protection under the law to the unborn. Discussed
as well, are some of the surprising ways the big, institutional pro-life groups have fought
against great pro-life legislation.
OVERTIME: IVF is one of the biggest stories in Alabama and America right now.
Bradley Pierce, a lawyer who specializes in this space, walks us through what
happened in Mobile and what the Alabama legislature's response has been – including
attempts to grant full blow immunity despite some common-sense amendments that
were tabled.

Imagine being told that Alabama was the gold standard of elections and election integrity only to find out that the “state of the art” voting tabulators take scissor cut reprinted absentee ballots.
Like so many of us after the 2020 election, Angela Shepherd began to have questions surrounding the election process. Rather than becoming a keyboard warrior complaining on the internet about the glaring issues with the 2020 election across the nation, she felt led to actually do something, and to focus locally.
Angela has become an Alabama election expert since then and comes on to share the story of her journey, including how she earned the name “crazy ballot lady” after proving the tabulators can’t decipher between real and fake ballots, and creating a piece of legislation, HB 259, that would require a post election audit of all general elections in the state of Alabama.

This week Bryan sits down with Alabama Attorney General Steve Marshall to discuss the most pressing items of the day.

The conversation doesn’t stop there as Bryan engages with AG Marshall on his recent Amicus supporting President Trump’s stay application before the United States Supreme Court; some big wins against ESG and the Climate Cabal; legislation surrounding Carlee Russell’s fake abduction; and the issue of AI-generated, child and deep-fake pornography.
AG Marshall wraps it up with an update on the VCAP legislation passed several years ago restricting the use of cross sex hormones and gender transitioning surgeries in the state of Alabama.
OVERTIME: This week's overtime segment is one for the ages as Bryan and AG Marshall discuss the death penalty and the use of Nitrogen Hypoxia, concluding with a brief history of public executions and how we got to where we are today.

This week we have an incredible story of a Baldwin County man who spent decades in federal law enforcement working to combat the flow of drugs and human trafficking into our country. Angelo Fermo wasn't necessarily headed down that path as a youth. His father was a big time drug dealer who had been in and out of prison his whole life and all Fermo had ever seen was a life of crime. As he approached adulthood the fork in the road became clear.
Angelo comes on to tell us the story of how he was able to break free from heading down the path of his father. He also tells us some incredible tales of his days as a narcotics officer that you won't want to miss.

This week Bryan sits down with Lt. Gov Will Ainsworth to hear his predictions on this legislative session. According to Ainsworth, the number one issue plaguing businesses in Alabama is not taxes or regulations, but a shortage of qualified workers. He discusses his plans for workforce development and some legislation that will help move that forward.
Bryan also asks Ainsworth what his prediction is on school choice, gambling, and prisons.
You'll want to tune in to hear this conversation so you are aware of what the 2024 legislative session could have in store.
OVERTIME: Military age male migrants are crossing our border by the tens of thousands every day and the federal government isn't doing anything to stop it. Worse than that, the federal government is preventing state's from stopping it and it looks like there will be a showdown in the Lone Star state with the Alabama National Guard being sent in to help Texas. We ask Will what his thoughts are on how this mass immigration is affecting Alabama and why it appears that the federal government is intentionally trying to destroy our nation.

State Auditor Andrew Sorrell, our first ever guest on 1819 News: The Podcast, joins us this week on our 100th episode.
Listen as Alabama State Auditor, Andrew Sorrell, tells his personal story as well as what it is that he does in the Auditor's Office.
Andrew is arguably the most conservative person in state government as evidenced by his time in the state house. He stood with courage, oftentimes by himself, against ever expanding state budgets year after year. Andrew played a major role in the passing of Constitutional Carry legislation and was labeled as a radical when in fact he was just doing the things on the Republican Party platform as a Republican.
This week's overtime segment discussion revolves around the fact that courage is being rewarded more than ever in politics right now but still so few are willing to lean into the buzzsaw.

In this episode, 1819 News CEO and Editor-in-Chief explain the decision making process that went into publishing the stories about the late Mayor and Pastor Bubba Copeland.
On Nov 1st, 2023, 1819 News published a story about a small town Alabama Mayor who was also a pastor. The story exposed that this elected official and Baptist preacher was leading a double life by posting sexual photos of him dressed in drag, as well as posting memes encouraging children to transition, and writing explicit homoerotic fiction stories. All of which were posted on public forums.
After we published the story, we had many citizens in the area reach out to provide us with more information, including the fact that the children pictured on the transition memes were actual children from the community that he used without the parents permission and the memes appeared on porn sites. We were also made aware that one of the fiction stories written by Mayor Copeland was about killing an actual female Phenix City business owner with the intent of stealing her identity to have sex with her husband.
In the early evening of Friday, Nov 3rd, 2023 Mayor Bubba Copeland took his life after being involved in a low speed pursuit with law enforcement that was attempting to stop him for a wellness check.
Media outlets from across the nation proceeded to place blame on 1819 News for his death saying that 1819 News had no right to share those aspects of Mayor/Pastor Bubba Copeland's life.
We stand 100% behind our decision to publish the stories and Jeff and Bryan breakdown why in this week's episode.
This week's episode will travel the full gamut of emotions as Rick Burgess sits down with Bryan to share a message they hope will challenge men to take their responsibility as husbands, fathers, and spiritual leaders serious.
Rick shares the story of how God used the near death experience of his wife while she was giving birth to get his attention causing him to become serious about his faith. He began to grow in his faith and love for God's Word, ultimately becoming the leader his family deserved. 9 years later when tragedy struck and they lost their son in a tragic accident, Rick was able to be the rock his family needed to navigate them through the pain and loss.
This incredible story of God's grace and mercy through tragedy will move you deeply and Rick's words will challenge you to take your faith seriously so that you are prepared to lead when tragedy strikes.
OVERTIME: This week's overtime segment, Rick and Bryan discuss the consequences for ""Fake World"" foisting their nonsense upon real folks and how that has backfired with Target, Bud Light, Disney and more. This one is a lot of fun and exactly what you'd expect when Rick and Bryan get together.

This week Bryan sits down with Alabama Secretary of State Wes Allen to hear his story and what his plan is to keep from outsourcing the important job of maintaining our voter rolls. Wes Allen's first order of business when becoming Secretary of State was to get us out of ERIC, a voter integrity database with questionable ties to George Soros funded organizations. Wes Allen made a trip out to ERIC's headquarters only to find that their headquarters didn't exist. Wes got Alabama out of ERIC, but that wasn't the hard part, the hard part was creating a system that would do what ERIC did except it would be done in Alabama by Alabamians. Wes comes on to tell us about that process as well as the features and benefits of the new system, AVID, that his team built.
Overtime Segment : Wes explains the proposed legislation he has been working on that would prevent ballot harvesting in Alabama.

This week Bryan sits down with Lt. Gov Will Ainsworth to talk about two very important topics. First up they discuss Economic Incentives and Workforce Development, how those two things are connected, and what the state is doing in these areas. Economic Incentives seem to be the Holy Grail of Alabama politics so we ask some clarifying questions. How do they work? What's the point? How can we keep jobs from becoming an idol to where we compromise our conservative principles to keep jobs.
They finish the podcast discussing what needs to be done to make sure we never have another government overreach reaction like we did during COVID. Will pulls no punches and systematically breaks down what needs to be done both from a leadership perspective and a legislative perspective to ensure we never have to go through anything like that again.
BTS: This week's overtime is Lt. Gov Will Ainsworth letting it rip on the ridiculousness of the US43 project where we plan to borrow against future gas tax money to build a $1B corridor from Tuscaloosa to Mobile despite getting no Federal matching funds and having other infrastructure issues that should be much higher on the priority list.

Flynn also breaks down 5GW in education and the media in this interview and discusses how 5GW is no longer our government versus a foreign government; it is our own government using 5GW against its own citizens, exemplified strongly by COVID-19 and the 2020 election.
Al Robertson, the oldest son of the Duck Commander, Phil Robertson, comes on with Bryan to share his story of coming to Christ and what it was like growing up in the Robertson household.
They also discuss his road to being a pastor and more importantly the rocky road that led to he and his wife Lisa's marriage ministry.

Al became a pastor in the church where his family had been members for years. Then, when Lisa had an affair, the heartache and the tension was very public. Their candid story is one of rescued love and renewed commitment.

Bryan has said that this week's episode may very well be the most important piece of content we have put out at 1819 News. That is a bold statement as 1819 News has put out countless impactful news articles, opinion pieces, radio hits, and podcasts since our inception. The things Dr. Lindsay has to say need to be heard by every single person in Alabama.
This week Bryan sits down with Dr. James Lindsay, a world leading expert on Marxism in education. We hear James Lindsay's story of how he rose to fame by writing ridiculous, fictitious white papers that were published by leading intellectual journals as a means of showing how captured the systems within academia are.
From that, James learned more about the roots of this capture and how everything leads to Marx, Lenin, Gramsci, Marcuse, and the long march through the institutions. This is not a new topic for 1819 News: The Podcast, but Lindsay is able to plumb the depths of it more fully than ever before and give specific examples of how teachers are trained to indoctrinate children using Social Emotional Learning (SEL), even taking harmless curriculum and using it to cause division and separate children from parents.

Lack of executive leadership from the governor in our state has caused many serious issues from infrastructure and education to prisons and more.
With an aging governor that is rarely ever seen in public, it’s not a stretch to assume that Lt Gov Will Ainsworth might inherit the highest office in the land.
