John Braun, and Pennsylvania Treasurer Stacy Garrity.

Mark Davis fills in for Hugh and talks with John Ashbrook, David Drucker, and Byron York.

In this episode of the Alex Marlow Show, Alex dives into the potential confirmation of Todd Blanche as Attorney General to the ongoing saga of the Iran War. But what really sets this episode apart is the host's unapologetic take on the media's role in perpetuating the COVID-19 pandemic and the lockdowns that followed.

Plus, Alex shares his thoughts on the importance of questioning the scientific method and the dangers of relying too heavily on "experts." He also tackles the topic of reparations in New York City and the potential consequences of implementing such a program.
