Episode Details

Is Roy Cooper really the moderate his campaign portrays him to be? This week, Joseph Backholm and Ashley Vaughan examine the former governor's new U.S. Senate campaign, comparing his "football, church, and common sense" messaging with his record on public safety, parental rights, abortion, women's sports, and gender ideology. They also discuss the growing problem of youth sports gambling and why parents should pay attention as betting becomes increasingly normalized among teenagers. Join the conversation as they look beyond the campaign ads to explore the policies, priorities, and worldview shaping these important issues.
