Warrior Dividends, Badlands Blizzards, and the Brown University "Dumpster Fire" (12-18-25)

It is a "Windy Edition" of the show as a winter blizzard sweeps through the region, but the news cycle is moving even faster than the gusts. Scott Hanlon and the team break down President Trump’s high-impact primetime address, where the big headline wasn't a war announcement, but a "warrior dividend" heading into the pockets of nearly 1.5 million service members. The guys also dive into the bizarre investigative failures at Brown University following a campus shooting and sit down with Fargo Police Chief Dave Zabolsky to get the truth behind recent crime stats. Plus, we look at the future of health with Dr. Mike Jorgensen and check the "scene of the crime" in the grain markets with Lighthouse Commodities.
