Charlie Spiering, author of 'Amateur Hour: Kamala Harris in the White House,' joins Dan to discuss his time researching and writing about the political and personal background of the current Vice President and what led her to securing the nomination for President of the United States.Amazon.com: Amateur Hour: Kamala Harris in the White House (Audible Audio Edition): Charlie Spiering, Johnny Heller, Simon & Schuster Audio: Books

Kamala Harris and her team decide to punt on the opportunity to speak at the Al Smith charity dinner in October, but Donald Trump will be there, and thus another chance missed for the Vice President to get a hold on sustainable momentum in the race. She continues to clamor for another debate, but is Trump right to deny her that bite at the apple?

Dan has a hankering for the remix of 'They're Eating the Dogs' from Trump at the debate, so Ryan obliges upon returning from one of the commercial breaks.Dan and Ryan evaluate the polling data and trends for Trump and both anticipate a sunny forecast in October as Kamala has run out of moves on the chessboard to improve her prospects.

Dan marvels at the inanity of Kamala Harris at her town hall with Oprah in Michigan, which was bizarre even by the Vice President's standards.Jeff Hurd updates his close race and hard-fought campaign against well-funded Democrat Adam Frisch in Colorado's 3rd Congressional District, a seat being vacated by Lauren Boebert's exit to run in the 4th District.Dan recalls his historic first date with wife Aimee back in the day at a Colorado-Colorado State football game.

Dan rejoins the program in the second segment of Hour 2 to share his epiphany on the 2024 election with Heidi Ganahl, Ryan, and listeners. He called Joe Biden departing the race long before anyone else did - will this premonition bear out as well?

Heidi Ganahl fills in for Dan during the first hour and is joined by XX-XY Athletics founder Jennifer Sey to discuss how the Republican party can better appeal to formerly liberal women who may be open to a change.

Dan is floored by the number of different accents Kamala Harris is willing and able to pick up, depending on the audience she's addressing. Some more damning video from 2007 reveals a completely draconian statement from Harris on gun confiscation and blatant violation of Americans' second amendment rights. Remembering a classic line from an old favorite movie of Dan's, 'Trading Places.'

After speaking at the Republican National Convention in Milwaukee, and being spurned by the DNC in Chicago, Teamsters president Sean O'Brien announces his organization will not be endorsing a candidate in the 2024 race for President. In what should have been a slam dunk for Democrats, this can only be viewed as a big loss for Vice President Kamala Harris.The Federal Reserve appears to be putting its thumb on the electoral scale by announcing a basis rate cut of 50 points for September. While this may help grow investments and consumer purchases with lower interest rates, it may ratchet up inflation once again to higher levels. Will this be enough to help Kamala Harris in her sprint to November?

Kamala Harris tries to give her stock answer on assault weapons when a reporter at the National Association of Black Journalists forum asks her about gun violence, but the reporter isn't having it when her question was specifically about handguns. Harris then spins out of control and is visibily flustered having to change course.Charlamagne 'Tha God' joins in on a caller to his show mocking Harris for her circular responses to direct questions, so she's really not fooling anyone. Governor Ron DeSantis (R-FL) announces he is assigning his state attorney general to an investigation of the second assassination attempt against Donald Trump in West Palm Beach, Florida.

Kamala Harris grants interview to a panel of young media members at the National Association of Black Journalists forum in Philadelphia, a decision her handlers must have immediately regretted. Audio of Taylor Swift passionately pleading with her parents against Sen. Marsha Blackburn (R-TN) in 2018 emerges as the iconic pop singer throws her support behind Harris in the 2024 election.

Dan busts out the 'back it up or pack it up' phrase as a hammer to drop on a caller making vague accusations about the host not being tough enough on right-leaning guests or political figures. When Dan calls for specific examples, there mysteriously are none.Martha Raddatz does some actual journalism and presses Harris surrogate Gov. Maura Healy (D-MA) on the Vice-President's erroneous debate comment suggesting there were no American combat troops in active war zones.Tim Clemente, former FBI special agent tells CNN's Erin Burnett the second Trump would-be assassin was likely motivated by toxic 'Trump is Hitler'-type rhetoric from the Left.

Dan asks the question as countless examples of ratcheted-up rhetoric from the Left has created a white-hot political climate that has now produced two assassination attempts against Donald Trump. Are these connected as a simple cause and effect? Or will the media continue blaming the former President for the deranged lunacy targeting him?
