The Blasphemy, the Bureaucracy & the Bernie | G...
Steve, Todd, Aaron, and the Daily Wire’s Josh Hammer discuss a week full of leftists missing the point on anything and everything remotely related to the issues. The loudmouth leftists that conservatives tend to scoff at are extremely dangerous, because they would compose the bureaucracy needed to impose tyranny if the socialists take power. Then, does Bernie Sanders have a clear path to his party’s nomination? If he takes a key early state, he might just cruise to victory. In Hour Two, Steve responds to listener feedback and goes on one of his classic rants about the rise and fall of Pete Buttigieg. Finally, is student loan debt forgiveness viable? Is it right?

Goodbye, Aaron, You’re Fired | Guest: Stu Burgu...
Steve reveals the details of his meeting with CNN and explains exactly what the network is looking for in a conservative voice. Are Todd and Aaron about to be kicked to the curb?! Then, Stu Burguiere of the Glenn Beck Program joins the show to promote his new show, Stu Does America, and provide a new perspective on how the impeachment proceedings could shape the general election. In Hour Two, for Theology Thursday, Steve examines the effect of rewards on the brains of animals and people alike before delving into the fundamental difference between the tax codes of biblical times and those of 21st-century America. Finally, Aaron poses three non-political questions about leftover food, the next boom market, and living in other countries.

Let Curt Schilling In Already! | Guest: Daniel ...
Steve goes off on the people keeping legendary pitcher Curt Schilling out of baseball’s Hall of Fame for purely political reasons. Then, the team plays a game of Buy, Sell, or Hold? that touches on varied topics such as Super Bowl ads, Trump impeachment, and the gun rights protests in Virginia. In Hour Two, the guys ponder whether the Super Bowl MVP will be a non-quarterback, the best ways to eat potatoes, and whatever Tom Steyer was thinking on the debate stage. Lastly, Daniel Horowitz joins the program to explain why the impeachment trial is a lose-lose for both parties.

Countdown to Doomsday in Iowa | Guest: David Ye...
Steve, Todd, and Aaron discuss the escalation of tensions between Elizabeth Warren and Bernie Sanders and see right through the leftist lies about the pro-Second Amendment protesters in Virginia. Then, the team breaks down several clips from conservative outlets in Fake News or Not? In Hour Two, David Yepsen joins the program to provide additional insight on the Iowa Caucuses and explain why Joe Biden is the Mitt Romney of the 2020 race. Lastly, what does the word “electable” even mean?

To Beat Your Opponent, Respect Him First | Gues...
We’re two weeks out from the Iowa Caucuses, and the latest poll is an absolute debacle in the eyes of one Steve Deace. The media has gone to bat for Elizabeth Warren time and again, but Bob Vander Plaats explains why the New York Times’ attempt at a dual endorsement featuring her and Amy Klobuchar could be a bad sign for her campaign. In Hour Two, the team responds to some questions posed on social media over the weekend. Among them are thoughts about the age of the Earth, the Chiefs’ chances in Super Bowl LIV, Catholic vs. Protestant interpretations of Scripture, and the lack of sinfulness in speculation (even when it comes to betting).

Make Gulags Great Again! | Guests: D.C. McAllis...
The Deace Group is on the job yet again, breaking down a cringeworthy week for the Democratic candidates. Steve and Aaron are joined by author D.C. McCallister and Blaze Media contributor Chris Pandolfo, who discuss both the leftists shooting their mouths off and the not-so-moderate candidates talking behind each other’s backs. In Hour Two, Steve presents an email from a listener who wonders whether Steve makes the effort to be gentle when discussing “PG-13-rated” material on the show.

A Feckless Feud on a Notorious Network | Guest:...
The feud between Elizabeth Warren and Bernie Sanders rose to the forefront during Tuesday’s Democratic debate, but does it even matter when it’s the equivalent of a political pillow fight? Then, the team plays an hour-long round of Buy, Sell, or Hold? Among the topics discussed are another developing scandal at Penn State, a comparison between LSU star Joe Burrow and NFL legend Joe Montana, and a list of sci-fi films that effectively kills Steve’s will to live. Finally, Daniel Horowitz joins the program to illustrate how a Sanders vs. Trump race and its aftermath would look.

Netflix’s ‘Messiah’ Provokes Wide Range of Conc...
Steve, Todd, and Aaron discuss the latest Democrat infighting, leftist drivel being taken to a whole new level, and a criminal with the lamest (and most disturbing) excuse the team has ever heard. Then, the guys examine clips from the past week’s news cycle in the latest round of Fake News or Not? In Hour Two, the team thoroughly breaks down the ten-part Netflix series ‘Messiah’ (spoiler alert: They will tell you exactly how it ends). Steve then answers emails from listeners about whether they think the show’s main character is divine, a charlatan, or the embodiment of an Antichrist.

Ignoring the Truth at All Costs | Guest: Bob Va...
The debacle continues, as leftists just won’t get off their high horse to stand with the freedom-loving students taking to the streets throughout Iran. If it makes President Trump’s administration look good, they will avoid it like the plague. Then, Bob Vander Plaats joins the program to shed some additional light on the developing race between hard-core progressives Bernie Sanders and Elizabeth Warren. In Hour Two, Steve opens the phones to ask listeners if he should accept a new role that could broaden his reach as a host.

Taking Partisanship to Unprecedented Levels | G...
Elvis, Princess Diana, and … General Soleimani? That list is just one example of the anti-American bilge that was spewed by the mainstream media and Democratic leaders over the past week. Ricky Gervais’ lambasting of the Hollywood elites at the Golden Globes was both welcome and unexpected, but what has happened to his career trajectory in its wake? In Hour Two, the team returns to discussion of the modern evolution of Star Wars, and Steve doesn’t hold back on his disdain for the filmmakers. Finally, the team responds to listener feedback on several topics discussed at the end of 2019.

Truth of Scripture Doesn’t Hinge on Personal Be...
Steve, Todd, and Aaron continue to lament the mainstream media’s openly anti-American coverage of the Iranian situation. Interventionism in the Middle East doesn’t work, but people should realize that it’s not the only option. Then, author Mary Jo Sharp joins the program to explain why so many Americans who have turned their backs on the church come back to the fundamental truth of Christianity. In Hour Two, for Theology Thursday, Steve takes aim at those who preach the gospel for all the wrong reasons. Finally, Aaron poses three non-political questions about the impact of music and theater, the best jobs in the trades, and whether the Marvel Comic Universe is a better film franchise than "The Lord of the Rings."

Don’t Back Down and There Won’t Be a War | Gues...
Steve gets on his soapbox about the approach America needs to take to avert a major war in the Middle East. Simply put, President Trump should call the ayatollah’s bluff, something previous presidents have failed to do. Then, the team plays a game of Buy, Sell, or Hold? that touches on instant replay, Super Tuesday primaries, and Steve’s hoarding of holiday cookie dough. In Hour Two, Daniel Horowitz joins the program to explain why the killing of Qassem Soleimani was an act of de-escalation, not an act leading to war. Finally, the new XFL is experimenting with some new rules. Will any work their way into the NFL or college games?

Stooping to an All-Time Low? | 1/7/20
“Enemies of the people” is not a title that Steve throws around lightly, but the latest statements by several high-ranking journalists and powerful Democrats leave no other term that can sufficiently describe them. Then, Steve Deace himself gets put on the spot in the new year’s first round of Fake News or Not? In Hour Two, the guys break their silence on "The Rise of Skywalker" for Pop Culture Tuesday. Be warned, there are spoilers galore and some less-than-flattering commentary about the film.

Steve Makes His Predictions for 2020 | Guest: B...
The Steve Deace Show theme for 2020 is “Assume you’re being lied to,” because fake news is everywhere, no matter who you’re listening to. Then, Bob Vander Plaats joins the program to discuss the evolution of the Democrat field in the Iowa polls ahead of next month’s caucuses. Is Joe Biden toast if he finishes fourth or lower in the state? In Hour Two, Steve unveils his predictions for the year, and his outlook on the Democratic race would be historic if it comes to pass.

Be Smart, Don’t Start | Guests: Jeff Fisher & K...
Jeff Fisher and Keith Malinak are back on the program to discuss topics such as the Democrats’ half-hearted response to the airstrike that eliminated two major Iranian military leaders. When should you offer some charity to the homeless and when are you getting ripped off? Be smart, don’t use tobacco, because Jeffy definitely sees the world a little differently now that he’s a non-smoker. In Hour Two, Jeffy examines a list of downright nasty foods that Baby Boomers simply won’t let leave the public consciousness. Also, prepare to have your mind blown by the story of a man falling victim to a “secret shopper” scam.

'Pope-ing' Ain’t Easy & More TSA Horrors | Gues...
Jeff Fisher and Keith Malinak are on the program, and Keith is in seventh heaven following a delivery from his secret Santa. Pope Francis recently slapped a young girl, but Pope Jeffy thinks he understands what the Holy Father goes through. A plan to construct a 300-acre commune for 150,000 homeless people looks okay on paper, but it would be a fiasco in practice. In Hour Two, Keith vents his frustration at the TSA’s blatant double standard for what can be allowed through airport security.
